Well, in the wake of the second presidential debate between Senator Barak Obama and Senator John McCain, the initial polls once again indicate that Obama is the winner. Yes, “That One” is the winner (referring to McCain’s off-the-cuff remark during the debate about Obama). That means the scorecard looks something like this: Obama/Biden - 3 and McCain/Palin – 0. With one month before Election Day, the NBC/Wall Street Journal poll has Obama up by 6 points in the national poll and NBC’s political analyst, Chuck Todd, has Obama right now with 264 Electoral College votes (with only 270 needed to win the presidency). That’s right! What started with a surprise victory in the Iowa Caucus on January 3, 2008, Barak Obama is on the verge of becoming the first African-American president in the United States. But with only four weeks to go, anything can happen. For McCain and his running mate, Governor Sarah Palin (who I intend not to speak about until after the election), the only course of action is to become more and more negative with personal attacks & innuendos against Obama’s character. It may get ugly with “swift-boat” tactics that McCain initially said he would never do. Being down in the polls and unable to speak on the issues, it seems to many that that his only course of action. Make no mistake. The personal attacks and the negativity are going to come! But my question is, should Obama respond in the same way? Now that he’s up in the poll and seemingly winning over many “toss up” states, should Obama get negative? In a recent interview with CNN analyst Roland Martin on the Tom Joyner Morning Show, Obama insisted that he will not let attacks go unanswered. "One of the things that we've done through this campaign, we don't throw the first punch but we'll throw the last," he said. At this stage of the campaign, I feel he can’t “come down” to McCain’s level of negative attacks, but rather keep his concentration on issues & policies. Well let me know what you think and we’ll be adding new blogs at least each week now until the election! Be blessed!

I watched the debate and agree that Obama was the clear winner. I feel erriely sad for McCain that he knows he's losing in the polls and can't seem to find the traction he needs to jumpstart his campaign. I sincerely believe he dug a deep hole for himself when he selected Governor Palin as his running mate, primarily because of the baggage she brings with her. It was for that and similar reasons I believe Senator Obama did not select Senator Clinton, and his judgment in making that choice demonstrates the real difference in the two presidential candidates, with Senator Obama demonstrating far superior judgment. I was also delighted to see in tonight's debate how Senator Obama was able to adjust himself as a "gifted introvert," and express more of the "gifted extrovert" preference. I think he did a much better job of connecting with the public in general, and the voters present in the hall in particular. This was also demonstrated in the way he and Michelle "hung out" with the crowd post debate. It isn't over yet, but is any one thinking "landslide?"

I watched the debate last night and felt also that Mr. Obama was surely the winner. He kept his poise and didn't lower himself to the level of the off the cuff remarks that were thrown at him. I personally don't think America liked the remarks, not to mention the minorities. Obama kept himself in a presidential position by not allowing the oncast of his opponent shake him. It was clear to see that McCain was upset at the overall picture of defeat for himself. The remarks came from his genuine heart and contempt for this black man with the audacity of winning over me in this nation where it is unheard of for a black man to be president. The mud slinging of the defimation of character for Obama by McCain's running mate, Sara Palin is expected. She is doing what she is told to do in using her as the aggressive bulldog. She is doing what McCain can't afford to do beyond what he has already done in last night's debate. "That one", but this did not shake the cool layed back Mr. Obama, he stuck to the issues that American wanted to hear answers to. In the post debate, He and our next first lady stuck with the crowd and mingled with all, where McCain & his wife, hurredly disappeared after stepping in front of the camera while the commentator was trying to say good night. I feel Mr. Obama has made a difference in the final decision with the Independent voters and has converted some of the original Republican voters. I am looking for and expecting for Mr. Obama to go way over the top with Electorial votes. The Nation is tired of what has gone on for the past eight years in the White House. Being that McCain is always trying to push down our throats his experience and in governemnt for the past 26 or so years, I don't see a definite change by his presence. Now I go back spiritually on you, the Saint's of the Most High Shall take the Kingdom and it is up to the saints to pray a double covering over Obama as he goes to the White House of this great nation. I am sure that McCain is not the only one upset of the victories of this man.Nnow the consitution can certainly be quoted in this nation with the Victory of the first Afro American President in the history of the United States of America. What an example for the world!!

An aggressive bulldog, wow!! I can not wait for the comments of Suff. Bishop Brady after the election concerning Gov. Palin. When she and Sen. Biden debated, I told my husband that she reminded me of our 10yr daughter who when she gets excited or thinks she has a bright idea, her head peeks up and her eyes widen like a deer in headlights! Awe...Last night's debate was yet again hopeful and encouraging. I too, like Mr. Hairston had somewhat of a "pity" for Sen. McCain because the facts and his history of siding with President Bush kept speaking against him. He is overly pleased with his service to our country, when in fact, his service led him to an imprisonment most of his "service time". I will not be presumptious, but that could not have been a good feeling. It is because of that horrific experience that concerns me that he will run this country with a vegence and not with the compassion and passion that a Commander and Chief should. I have not taken advantage of the early voting privelege because my personality likes to be in the thick of things, (kind of like that last minute Christmas Eve shopping). I may have a caveman mentality as well in that there have been so many emails surfacing about what to wear and making certain that the electronic voting device records properly your vote. It is overwhelming. It is because of those thoughts that I thought on last night, the only way that Sen. McCain will win this election is if someone somehow cheats and rigs machines, and we all know that not only is that possible, but it has been done in the past. Well, we are turning the bend to the end and as the young people say, "It's on and popping"!

I too agree with everyone. McCain is "struggling" and will say or do anything to attack Senator Obama's character. I am a huge MSNBC fan and I loved the analysts on Keith Olbermann's Countdown, who stated that according profile experts who study body language and voice tones, they reported that Senator McCain's body language and voice tone suggest that he is either lying or certainly being deceptive. I applauded them for their finding, but it was my grandmother that taught me not to trust anyone that has to tear a person down in order to build themselves up. Lastly, I am not a prejudice person, nor do I believe in profiling by race, gender, etc. Nor do I relish in comments that promote bigotry, but Governor Palin--HA! I do not espouse the notion that blondes are dumb or airheads but if there was truth in it one would have to wonder, when thinking of Palin, if her hair really is black or if its a dye job and she's really blonde!!! I have been praying along the lines of Lisha's comments above. I bind that voting machine rigging spirit in Jesus Name! It certainly has been done in the past and it seems likely that it may be tried again.

This election is all but over and the only thing that the McCain/Hockey mom ticket has to offer are dirty tactics, lies and smoke screens so that the American public does not focus on real the issues. The Ads that McCain/Hockey mom are running to try and discredit Senator Obama by linking him to William Ayers are so desperate that not even “Joe Six pack” is going for it. Does the McCain/Hockey Mom ticket think that the American public does not realize that the Gov. of Alaska is totally ignoring her investigation in abuse of power in Alaska? The last time we had a Vice President abuse his power we got Dick Cheney. Now the “hockey mom” from Alaska is going around trying to suggest that Senator Obama may have a terrorist under tone to him. If this were at all true then how weak is McCain, I mean if this was true and I were McCain I would of brought it up at last nights debate every chance I got. I would of said “hey he may be thinking of over throwing the country have him arrested” I would all but refuse to take the stage with a known or so called person with ties to a terrorist. McCain could no more look Senator Obama in the eyes and say it to his face than he could look me in the eye and tell me he has the American publics best interest at heart. Desperate times calls for desperate measures and McCain is obviously very, very desperate at this point and so I don’t think we have seen the worse of him yet. To the question of should Senator Obama come down to McCain’s level I think that he should respond to it briefly and go right back to the game plan of focusing on the issues. Let McCain fester in his own negativity on his way back to Arizona (the last state to recognize MLK Day). Senator Obama does not need to go down that path when he has jus and the American public on his side.

In answering the question of responding to McCain's attacks in the last weeks of this intense debate among the electorate as to choosing between Barack Obama and John McCain to be our next world leader; I strongly believe one should fight back when being attacked, especially unprovoked and unjustified as these series of attacks against the character of Obama and the culture of us all! These attacks are desperate and uncalled for as the McCain camp sees their lead vanish (Post the Sarah Palin bump & Saturday nite Live skits); and in light of the economy and the leadership skills of Barack Obama. The American people see the calm and resolute demeanor of the Democractic candidate and the influx of new registered youth and African American voters swamping a political movement never before seen as caused all Republicans and most especially the conservatives to join in chorus to attacking not only Barack Obama, but people of color and the American ideas that was promised to "We the People". Every criticism and attack on Obama has been rooted in the ideology that he's "not of us", and he is different from the "normal" American. That somehow his background is so "mysterious" and not protocal for a President of these United States. Many of them want to see an angry black man so as to minimize the intelligence, charisma and purpose his canidacy has brought to this political process. Yes, he, in fighting back will show the nation and the world that he would fight for them and not lay down as John Kerry did in 2004! Kerry regrets that he did not answer quickly the Swift boat attacks as it led to his losing the election.he rightly didn't want to dignify them, but many believed their report. (remember the ten spies?). For the most part the American electorate (sad to say) believes what is titalating and sensational and what the news cycles allow republican sinmasters ( I mean spinmasters) who keep repeating a lie until many believe. Upwards of 20% still believe Barack is a Muslim. Its not just the McCainites who do this, it is the Rush Limbaugh's and consevative talk shows who unrelentlessly attack Obama's culture. If he does not fight back he will unfortunately lose the war of words perliferating the airways day and night and therefore will lose the election. It is a declared "war" as many Republicans have called it and they are in it to win it no matter that the American people will absorb the casulty cost. To them its about winning and thats all that matters to them, no matter who loses or is killed in the process. Hear the shouts of "treason", "terroist" or "Kill him" all refering to Barack Obama when Gov. Palin exhorted her crowds against him in the last four days. We are fighting back through prayer and fasting for him, Michelle and his daughters, but his surragotes must fight for him by countermanding the attacks and falsities against his character. He's come too far not to fight for all of the best in us and the dream that Dr King dreamed in us and for us!!! Peace

We all know that it is "not over untill it is over" and that the only poll that counts is the one on Nov. 4, 2008. Should Obama go negative? The lord said turn then other cheek. However their are times when one has to respond, maybe not in kind, but in some measure. I am listening to Senator Obama speaking in Indiana as I write. He said he can take 4 more months of John McCain's attack but the American people cannot take 4 more years of the McCain/ Bush economic policy. We also know that in the past republican negative won them elections. So I think Obama has to inject a little true negative to counter. By the way it is going just as I saw it in February.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By JTW on 10/8/2008

Senator Obama & Biden have performed well in the debates thus far. One more debate for Senator Obama and there is no reason to believe that he will not continue to advance his platform. To address Suffragan. Bishop’s question I believe you have to fight fire with fire. Though Senator Obama must remain focused on issues and advance his vision for the country his campaign will have to address & debunk the propaganda that will air the next few weeks. We learned from Karl Rove that the commercials and comments do not have to be true. Ideally, the democratic 529 organizations will fight fire with fire and allow the Obama campaign to speak of change. Lastly, while we continue to hope and pray for a landslide victory we must be mindful of the Electoral College system. A number of experts have projected that Senator Obama has nearly the 270 Electoral College votes necessary but there are still a number of states that are in play; Ohio being one of them. While my brothers and sisters who live in or near Youngstown, Ohio live in a predominately democratic region I want to remind/inform you that the southern part of the state traditionally votes republican and has gifted the state to George Bush twice. The Obama campaign has the grass roots organization and money to pull it off but do not underestimate the republican money machine.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!	By A. Glenn Brady on 10/8/2008
Hey, what's going on my Christian brothers & sisters? Seemingly everyone wants Obama to go negative also. What about the scripture, "Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good"? (Romans 12:21) Or do you want the "hood" to come out in Obama?

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!	By JTW on 10/9/2008
The law is for the lawless. We're not talking about electing the Bishop we're talking about electing the President of the United States. We don't set the rules of the game; therefore, the Obama camp has to fight fire with fire. Even Jesus got angry in the Temple! All the brothers in the hood ban together!!!!!

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By B.E.T. on 10/9/2008

I agree, I think, Bishop Brady. I think going negative is not the way to go. We are not that naïve to just assume everything we hear is the truth. We search the facts. We don’t take our own Bishops' and ministers' at face value. We go back and search the “WORD” to see if what the minister said was indeed the truth. So why would we rest on what a political candidate says about the other one. We are better than that. We search for the truth on both political candidates. Obama does not get a free pass because he is an African-American, and neither does McCain. We scrutinize both candidates, we do our research. We look for the truth. He shouldn't go negative. He should continue his standard of being above the fray.

I never actually answered the quetion, so now I will. I certain understand, though a rookie blogger, that all are entitled to their own opionion, but JTW if you are who I believe you are, you've got to be kidding! Your boss ran a clean campaign with tremendous integrity despite the mudslinging against him. Hood mentalities is exactly what is expected from the brethren so someone has to set a higher standard and declare, "this is how we do it". McCain and his camp shall not dictate to Senator Obama. He stated in this last debate that for too long the US has been the reactor instead of the initiator, the defensive instead of the offense...those with the ball and tentatively those who score. When it is all said and done I believe Sen Obama and the world for that matter, will be able to say that this win was not because of dirty politics, but certainly because of the content of the brothers' character. We have enough examples of lack of character and integrity in our race it is high time that the other side is viewed.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Jacquie Hays on 10/9/2008

I agree from my first blog on this issue and with the Suff Bishop, the nation, especially those who have stigmatized us into one hot head category, expected Obama to retalliate and come back. But I have to admire him for looking at the total picture. A hot head can't negotiate in the time of a crisis. Look at Jesus, did he fight back??? If he had where would we be today? Also, the saints of the most high shall take the kindgom and we can't take the kindgom (spiritual) using carnal ways. I don't think God would even honor us if we lowered our own standards to those of Palin and Mccain. We do come against that Machine rigging demon and declare that "Obama" is the next president of the USA i the Name of Jesus.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Michelle on 10/9/2008

I don't believe going negative is a bad thing.... not if it's backed up with truthful informations that could protect we, the people from mistakenly electing the wrong person into the highest office. We need to know the necessary background of each of our candidates , who we feel is most qualified, and who won't lead our country in the wrong direction or worse yet...lead us in danger....So negative campaigning is a necessary tool....IT IS ONLY A BAD THING... IF IT'S BASED ON LIES, AND OTHER MISLEADING INFORMATION about a candidate, which may.... most likely cause him his election. God dosen't want us to be foolish, and unwise when it comes to our enemies. I believe there are several scriptures that backs this topic. Don't leave any good thing for the mouth and canker worms to devour, or to destroy that which is good. He also mention something about protecting our good name. I need to search the scriptures but time is working against me for now.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Evangelist Angela A. Parker, St. Louis, MO on 10/9/2008

I am also excited just watching the historical aspects of this year's election. I must say very briefly that Senator Obama is in a very delicate situation; if he does not respond back to Senator McCain's assults he will be ridiculed as being weak. Also on the other hand, if he makes a great attack against the accusations then it will be said that he needs to stay focused. He has to find some middle ground here and move with extreme caution and wisdom -- if he sticks to the facts he can still make a great case becaise McCain has not dealt with the issues, he has used most of his time beating on Obama. I think that in these last days before the election Obama would do well to meet with his advisors and come up with a plan to rebuild the economy. Show people that you have plan and be a little more detailed about it people have itching ears now and they want to know what is going to be done to help this country. If Senator Obama stays focused, he can let Senator McCain fight dirty while he lays out a plan. We need all the people of this nation to be blessed in this not just the 5% that re extremely wealthy -- it seems that with the downfall at Wall Street has revealed that everybody needs some help right now. Those of us that believe in Jesus Christ and His word know that "these are the last day" however God has made us the salt of the earth and we can make a difference on the earth if we would just take the time to interceed on behalf of this country and the crisis that we are facing right now. In reality this crisis is not just in this country, other people are filling the pain as well. It is "Praying Time" right now.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Bishop Keith on 10/9/2008

gree with your reasoning Michelle and Evang. Parker. Today in Wisconsin a lone (it seems) black man in the midst of a sea of white face urged, begged and implored Senator McCain to attack Senator Obama in his association with Rev. Wright. I wondered if he is selling out Senator Obama for thirty pieces of silver. Of course that is expected for the next 27 days. How about the call to kill Senator Obama at a Gov. Palin rally? Should McCain comdemn those statements at their rallies more strongly?

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!	By A. Glenn Brady on 10/9/2008
Without a doubt, McCain should condemn such statements and caution Palen from her inciting remarks. However, I think prodding from hie audience and campaign managers is going to cause McCain to start engaging in the same type of strategy. I feel the next debate will be quite engaging between McCain & Obama.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Jacquie on 10/10/2008

I feel like the Suff Bishop, It is the responsibiilty of McCain to condemn these statements and make his aggressive bulldog calm down. At this time the real person comes out, out of your heart flows the issues of life. Racism has to be in their hearts and in their desparate moments they are drawing their ace in the whold trying to reach a nation who they feel have thrived on this very strength. And what can you say about the black man in the midst of the white faces, I told my husband, he would be one who is living in a fantasy world, what could he possibly gain from being the only one there? Certainly Palin or Mccain wouldn't recognize him enough to appoint him to a top paying position. If Palin is trying to separate herself from the black father of her daughter's child, where does he think this is going to take him. So saddd.. On the good note, I worked the campaign office last night making phone calls (do what I can do to help) and the majority of the calls I made were for Obama and that is saying something in this town. I had two calls out of many who were actually admitting to vote for Mccain. So I believe God is doing something here and throughout our nation. Obama is cool but I believe he knows when to throw the punch. I am hearing he is getting ready to throw a big one a few days before the election. I work in politics and it is not a picnic at all. You think this is cut throat now, what they are doing, wait until the real DESPARATE kicks in, OMG can you imagine.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Michelle on 10/12/2008

Praise The Lord Everybody, I enjoy reading everyone's post here. Dear Bishop Keith, I couldn't agree with you more regarding your first post on the topic, and to your last post, Sen McCain is now trying to take control over attacks made by some of his supporters towards Sen Obama in these rallies. Sen McCain now sees that many of his supporters were becoming increasingly disturbed by what they see as fueling hatred in America.... Sen John McCain especially tone it down after one of his supporters, a war veteran, in the audience said to him in a simular statement," IF YOU ARE TRUELY AN HONORABLE VETERAN, WHO IS TRUELY PATRIOTIC..... THEN PLEASE STOP ALLTHE HATRED AND PERSONAL ATTACKS... AND LET THE AMERICAN PEOPLE KNOW THAT YOU ARE, WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE," unquoted. Okay enough said.....To Sis Jaquie Hays, you looked very glamorous in those wedding pictures. You had always been a sharp sister anyway, and I appreciate your services not only in the church and on your job, but also for what you're doing for the Obama campaign by making house calls, which is no easy thing at all.....TO Bishop Brady, hearing your voice tonight was so lifting and motivating that I felt overwhelm with joy. You spoke with such conviction for the saints taking over the kingdom to possess it. I now believe we will. Thank you for encouraging me....And to the rest of the saints here....THANK YOU for being the foundation we needed to overcome the wickedness of this world, with Jesus, your long suffering in prayers and fasting assured us the victory.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Michelle on 10/13/2008

Dear Bishop Brady please forgive me, Now I'm concern about a news story on," Obama's Ties to ACORN" and the possible linking in voting fraud practices occured at least in 13 states. Is it true ? I'm sorry for changing the subject, but it has put a sick feeling in my stomach. I wonder if this the rumor, awaited since spring of this year, to be used as a surprise scandal blow up right before the election? I Remeber someone said Clinton knew a possible scandal on Sen Obama, and was not going to release this information until October, close to election time?...And I just learn that conservative Stanley Kurtz has written and study Obama's community organizing practices from May of this year and all he said. I was troubled more so by watching it on C-span2 today.Acorn is currently under investigation.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!	By A. Glenn Brady on 10/13/2008
Don't worry Michelle. This has nothing to do with Obama directly. His "campaign" funded this group to secure new voter registrations. And they've done a good job, but just like with any business, a few people with ACORD did the wrong thing. So it makes the whole effort look bad. The Republicans will try to use this as a tactic once again to avoid the real issues that matter.

Re: IS IT OVER? ONE MONTH TO GO!!!

By Pastor C. Lynette Lundy on 10/13/2008

Surely we are aware of the nature and tenets of the political process...and the slanted media replication of events that transpire and get transmitted in its regard. With this - a most historic process of political and societal proportions and the intense resolve its outcome will produce, I dare say, No - it is NOT over! Amidst the extreme misguided, miseducated and misleading reports about Senator Barack Obama and even about Senator John McCain & his running mate Governor Sarah Palin...we...not African-Americans, but we - the Body of Blood Washed Believers must not be moved by what we see & hear from the media or the candidates themselves to a certain degree. At this crucial hour, merely 22 days before Election Day, the Body of Christ must denounce its Democratic & Republican affiliation and assume the cloak of a more important affiliation ~ Our Prophetic Affiliation ~ hearing clearly & distinctively the true Heartbeat of God regarding this election. When we reduce ourselves to discussions about what he said or what she said we minimize our effectiveness to decree & declare what God says. With the looming possibilities and even likelihood of a Senator Obama winning the Presidency I have witnessed a horrific divide. I speak not of the Digital Divide, but a Dismal Divide among Believers...the very Elect of God. Recently I sat in a series of conversations with our anointed & prophetic brothers & sisters of a lighter hue where they declared with great conviction what God has said about Gov. Palin being a modern day Esther coming to save "her people" from the horrors of Haman. Two weeks ago I sat in a National Global Prayer Alliance meeting in our nation's capital with one of our premier, respected Apostolic Fathers and listened as prophetic utterances were released by pastors, prophets & peoples alike about this election and what God has said about it. The crowd roared thunderously when God allegedly declared that the McCain/Palin ticket was His Perfect Will for America. When our more tanned brother & sisters prayed that God's perfect will for Truth, Unity & the Infusion of Justice be the primary focus of this election devoid racial constraints, the crowd also raised a roar. It was when, however, the prayer of the saints went up to bless Obama as a man of faith and power the bequest was made for God to give him wisdom and righteous judgment that I witnessed the thunderous roar reduce to a whimper. To be fair, I’ve also sat in the company of the tanned and listened to their take on God’s mandate for America and how Anti-Christ like McCain is…and how another 4 years likened to the past 8 would utterly annihilate all that we know and love about America, especially where minorities are concerned. Last night Sean Hannity aired “the truth” about Obama…the untold story. I received emails and personal encouragements from my prophetic friends to make sure I watched this so I would know the truth and the truth could “set me free.” I respectfully declined their pleas and opted instead to watch Iron Man with my children sensing I would experience more “freedom” in the company of innocent children. In the last few days I’ve realized just how far from God this election has driven us. Regardless whoever assumes the highest seat of governmental authority in this land - - it MUST be the UNIFIED, CONCERTED EFFORTS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST to USHER IN GOD'S GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY!!! Neither Obama nor McCain have the wherewithal to effect any real change in this nation without the Power & Wisdom of God at the helm. The Heart of the King is IN THE HAND OF THE LORD and HE TURNS IT the way HE wills…and saints - - we must be ready to flow with the direction of His Hand ~ IN UNITY. Again I say, No, it is NOT over! During these next 22 days I make a clarion call among believers in-particular to reduce what we hear in the media and increase what we hear in the Heavenlies. I dare say some have postured themselves for or against a candidate based on what “they said”. But I submit the King of Kings would much rather we prostrate ourselves before Him and align our decision with His Destiny.

By lisha on 10/14/2008

Pastor Lundy, my dear sister and saint of God, you are on to something and have certainly stirred a roar in me. At the beginning of this year I was blessed to sit in the company of just a few woman in a program designed to share with God's people the forecast for the year. One speaker admonished us that God is saying, "Don't believe what that say, but rather believe what I (God) said." That was nearly eight months ago and it is yet ringing true in my spirit. I am not suprised at lighter or tanned believers, as the word of God says that even the very elect.......I believe that God has postured his people to take the gospel to a desperate people and declare that Wall Street resources are limited and we ought to look to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. In light of the next 21 days we need to cast aside our agendas and pray, "Thy kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven"

By Evangelist Melveeta Hatewood-Philadelphia, PA on 10/14/2008

As Sen. Obama so eloquently pointed out, the "straight talk express" has indeed lost a wheel (or two). I believe with the help of God and the prayers of the people "That one" will be the next President of the United States. I think Evang. Parker said it best "it is Praying Time". The Bible sets the promise and conditions for change before us in 2 Chronicles 7:14. "If my people, which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face..." Saints: let's pray so the healing can begin.

Yes we do have to pray much and a covering over Sen Obama and his family.No matter what we hear, we know without a shadow of a doubt that the Spirits of Racism and Greed must be dismantled. Yes, Pastor Lundy we as a holy nation must declare and decree this appointment. We cannot forget the bible says, Daniel 5:21 And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will. So it behooves us all to remember Nebuchnezzar, God still rules in the Kingdom of Men and it is up to the saints of the Most High to declare a thing. whatever we bind on earth is bound in heaven and whatever we loose on earth is loosed in heaven. We have creatorial power to call those things that are not as though they were. I believe in my soul God is saying Barack Obama.
