It is Well With My Soul
This month is designated as "Black History Month" in the United States. The main thread that has maintained the continuity of people of African descent in America is their steadfast faith and dependency on Jesus Christ. The expression of that dependenccy and faith is seen through gospel music and spirituals. Once a week, I will continue to post topics on our Bible study classes but each day I will attempt to feature a current and classic clip of some of my favorite hymns, spirituals and gospel songs. ENJOY!

I have seen the downfall of Satan......
Just how far have we come as a people? All of us are responsible for where we are today as a country. You say that you weren't even born during the Civil Rights era? That may be true, but don't we all benefit from what was accomplished? February 21, 2008 will mark the 43rd anniversary of the assassination of Malcolm X. This gentleman spoke the truth during a time when many blacks as well as whites did not want to know the truth. Even today much of what he said is as poignant now as it was in 1963. My point is this, I am seeking Jesus with the same fervor that Malcolm X sought justice for African - Americans. Oh we know our rights or at least we should know them. We have the benefits and we certainly can not be denied the opportunity. Now is the time to fight the devil with the same level of fervor that Malcolm speaks of in this clip. "And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of Heaven suffereth violence and the violent take it by force." Matthew 11:12. Never, never, never, never give up the fight saints of God. "To God be the glory for the great things he has done!" Hallelujah to the Lamb of God.

Malcolm X would have been 79 years old
The young lions do lack and suffer hunger, but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing. Psalms 34:10

Watch!!!!!
The Day and Hour Unknown
"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come. It's like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to everyone: 'Watch!' " Mark 13:32-37 (NIV) Keep your eyes on the prize. Jesus told everyone to "Be on alert." That means no one has time to take a break. You must mean "heaven all the way." No matter what it takes or where you are in your walk with the Lord endeavor to be closer to him. Read the Holy Bible daily and spend time communicating with the Lord. This is how you watch and ensure that you are ready. Seek to hear from him everyday and when you get there seek to hear from him 3 times a day and when you get there seek to hear from him every 2 hours, then every hour and every 30 min. Abide in Jesus every minute of every day. "The Spirit of the Lord gives Life" Hallelujah to the Lamb of God. There will be no rehearsal this week 2/13/08. We will rehearse next Wednesday 2/20/08. God Bless.
