On This Day: 01.20.09

In 1963 Dr. King gave a speech in Washington D.C. it was a most stirring address that became a prophecy he made mention of a dream of an America he had invisioned one with justice, equality for all and no more racial division In 1964 the Civil Rights Bill was signed and enacted that federal law designed to have racism in America impacted yet the struggle continued and the battle raged on but God had something coming up on the horizon In 2004 a man of mixed race decided to take up the cause a Columbia grad with a Harvard degree who did not stop to pause based in Illinois he ran for the United States Senate seat and despite the odds against him the opposition he did beat In 2007 God move Senator Obama to the next phase the Spirit compelled him to step up and enter the Presidential race many thought he was an upstart and by many he was rejected as he wasn't a part of the early movement and wasn't what they expected But God will use any kind of man to accomplish His goals all He requires is an obedient servant who allows Him to be in control In 2008 the Democratic Primary was a most unpleasant fight it was not only about gender it became about Black and White but the youth of today stepped up, joined in and took a stance and the young Senator from Illinois now had a fighting chance and after the dust had settled it became a very clear choice the American people voted and the world heard their voice that young upstart Senator Barack Obama won the Presidential race and now the most powerful job in this world belongs to a man with a Black face but more importantly he's a man who doesn't distinquish himself by his color he's the President of every American citizen Jews, Gentiles, Sisters and Brothers It was not a coincidence that on the day he won his party's nomination it was 45 years to the day that Dr. King addressed the entire nation it was not a coincidence it was all God's design that this young intelligent black man would have his season at this time a people delivered from slavery into the ultimate seat of power on this day in U.S. history African American's shining hour to be vindicated and now elevated to be validated and now celebrated Oh yes we can for hope has been renewed and restored Oh yes we can pray that peace will reign again once more On This Day the Rev. Dr. King's dream become divine On This Day January 20th in the year 2009 ON THIS DAY
