WE HAVE TO BE HERE FOR OUR WOMEN AND OUR CHILDREN. TOO MANY INSTANCES OF THESE HAPPENING IN OUR COMMUNITIES, BUT WE CAN PREVENT THINGS AS A COMMUNITY WE BRING UNITY THE ROOT WORD OF COMMUNITY IS UNITY. WE CAN'T HAVE NEIGHBORHOODS IF IF ALL WE CONTINUE TO HAVE ARE HOODS. LET'S PUT NEIGHBOR BACK IN TO NEIGHBORHOOD. LET'S LEARN OUR NEIGHBORS. KNOW YOUR NEIGHBORS AND KNOW WHO IS NEXT DOOR TO YOU AND ON YOUR BLOCK. IF WE KNOW WHO IS ON THE BLOCK WE KNOW WHO IS WATCHING OUR KIDS AND WHAT IS GOING ON. WE CAN PREVENT THINGS. ALSO, AS A COMMUNITY THERE IS A FAMILY THAT IS HURTING. PMISS APRIL DID NOT ASK ME TO DO THIS. I WANT TO DO ONE THING QUICKLY. SHE SENT ME A MESSAGE FRIDAY MORNING. AT 1:59 A.M. I WILL READ PART OF IT FROM MISS APRIL. SAYS WHEN EVERYBODY SLEEPS AT NIGHT IT WOULD BE THE HARDEST PART OF MY DAY.

I'VE OPINION PRAYI SINCE THIS HAPPENED, AND IN HOPES THAT THEY WOULD FIND THIS BABY. AND BRING HER HOME. SAFE. BUT THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. SO NOW WE'RE HERE. I'M STRUGGLING BECAUSE I'M A FATHER AND A GRAND FATHER, I GOT A GRAND CHILD JUST CELEBRATED HER BIRTHDAY ON FRIDAY SHE TURNED THREE YEARS OLD. AND SO I'M STRUGGLING NOW BECAUSE I REALIZE THAT I'M A MAN OF GOD. I REALIZE I'M THE PASTOR OF THIS CHURCH. THAT AIN GOING TO CHANGE THAT. BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW I WOULD FEEL IF THAT HAPPENED TO ONE OF MINES. I TOLD MY WIFE THAT I'M NOT AFRAID THAT I WON'T BE THE PASTOR OF THIS CHURCH BUT I MIGHT BE AN INMATE PASTOR. I CAN'T BE NOBODY BUT ME. WHAT AM I SAY SOMETHING I'M SAYING IS THAT I'M STRUGGLING. SIMPLY BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE A WORD TODAY THAT WOULD CHANGE WHAT HAPPENED OH ON OCTOBER 22ND. IN MY MEDITATION TIME I COULDN'T FIND A WORD. A GOOD FRIEND CALLED ME. HIS NAME IS JOB. SOME OF YOU MIGHT KNOW HIM OR HEARD OF HIM. HERE IS WHAT JOB SAID. JOB SAID TO ME WATCH ME NOW. JOB SAID LISTEN, PASTOR, GOD, LET ME HELP YOU WITH THEM. BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'RE STRUGGLING BUT I'VE BEEN WITH THEY ARE. AND I'M QUALIFIED TO SPEAK TO THAT FAMILY. WELL, JOB COULDN'T BE HERE TODAY. HE JUST TOLD ME TO TELL YOU FAMILY, THAT WHEN I WAS GOING THROUGH THE WORST TRAGEDY OF MY LIFE IT LOOKED LIKE I GOT OUT OF ONE THING I WAS IN ANOTHER. IT LOOKED LIKE WHEN THINGS HAPPENED, THAT HAPPENED AND I LOST THAT, I LOST THIS. BUT JOB SAID WHAT I HAD TO DO, IT KNOCKED ME TO THE GROUND. BUT THE BIBLE SAID, THEN, JOB AROSE. WHICH MEANS HE WAS NOT DOWN BUT HE GOT BACK UP. OKAY? I CAN'T GET NO HELP HERE BUT THAT IS ALL RIGHT. I'M GOING MYSELF. JOB SAID I LOST CATTLE, MY HOME. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE ONE I THOUGHT HAD MY BACK, MY GOOD THING, SHE TOLD ME WHY DON'T YOU JUST CURSE GOD AND DIE? OH, GOD, I CAN'T GET NO HELP. BUT JOB SAID, WILSON? I HAD TO WEEP. I BEGAN TO WEEP. AND SO, AT 4:00 THIS MORNING, SITTING ON THE SIDE OF MY BED. GOD WOKE ME UP. AND I BEGAN TO WEEP FOR THIS FAMILY AND FOR THIS BABY. YOU DO KNOW THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CRYING AND WEEPING. WHEN YOU'RE CRYING IT'S PULLING YOUR HEART. WHEN YOU'RE WEEPING IT'S PULLING YOUR MIND, BODY AND YOUR SOUL JOB SAID I BEGAN TO WEEP AND SAID WILSON I GOT THROUGH WEEPING AND CRYING I HAD TO MOVE FROM WEEPING TO WORSHIPPING. JOB SAID I HAD TO SHAVE MY HEAD. I HAD TO PUT ON SACK CLOTHS. I HAD TO SIT DOWN IN THIS ASHES AND I BEGAN TO WORSHIP GOD. BECAUSE I YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, WORSHIPPING MAY BRING YOU JOY GOT TO COME IN THEMORNING. FAMILY, I GIVE YOU EVERYTHING I GOT TODAY. THAT IS PRAYER. THE PRAYER OF THE RIGHTEOUS WILL BE A MUCH AND SO THAT IS ALL I'VE GOT TO OFFER YOU TODAY. WHAT WE SEE RIGHT HERE JUST PURE EVIL THAT HAPPENED. BEFORE WE START TALKING BAD ABOUT GOD, LET ME STRAIGHTE IT UP FOR JUST A MOMENT THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THESE COME THEY STILL KILL AND DESTROY. GOD SAID I CAME YOU MIGHT HAVE LIFE AND LIFE MORE ABUNDANT IF YOU LOOK AT THE WORD EVIL AND TURN IT AROUND, IT TURNS OUT TO BE LIVE THIS IS PREEVIL. WE LOOK AT THE WORD AND LOOK AT THIS, SOMEONE JUST SHOUT LIVE. PLEASE HEAR ME, FAMILY. THE DEVIL WILL LOVE MORE THAN TO MAKE YOU THINK THAT GOD DID THIS. THEN HE KNOWS YOU WON'T WORSHIP GOD. I WISH SOMEONE WOULD SAY THE DEVIL IS A LIAR. IN SPITE OF WHAT I'M GOING THROUGH I'M STILL GOING TO WORSHIP GOD. JOB SAID, YET WILL I TRUST IN HI TUPAC SAID.. DON'T ASK ME HOW I KNOW WHAT TUPAC SAID. COMPLETELY LOST, REFERS AT ALL COSTS. YOU MISSED THACHL BUT SEE, YOU'VE GOT TO MOVE FROM THAT THINKING. AND IF IF YOU TRAY TO REVENGE SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED WE'RE GOING TO BE BACK HERE AGAIN. TH BATTLE BELONGS TO TH LORD. WAIT. GIVE ME A FEW MORE MINUTES AND I'M GOING TO BE DONE. I KNOW YOU ARE READY TO GET OUT OF HERE. AND LET ME JUST SHARE A WORD WITH YOU. LET ME JUST SHARE WITHYOU. I DIDN'T GET THIS FROM THE CARDS. I GOT IT FROM THE BIBLE. COME IN JUST A LITTLE CLOSER. JUST A LITTLE CLOSER. WATCH ME NOW. THE BIBLE SAYS IN THE BOOK JOHN READ IT IN YOUR RELAXED TIME. IT SAYS NOW, JESUS PASSED BY. HE SAW A MAN BORN BLIND. FROM BIRTH. AND THE DISCIPLE ASKED HIM SAYING WHO SINNED STH THIS MAN OR THE PARENT? HE AS BORN BLIND AND JESUS SAID NEITHE ONE OF THEM. HE SAID LISTEN NO PASTOR HARRIS? IT WASN'T WHAT IS ASKED THAT MESSED HE UP. WHAT MESSED ME IS WHO ASKED IT. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, THEN SHUT YOUR MOUTH. OKAY. I'M THE RIGHT CHURCH. I KNOW I AM. IT'S AMAZING TO ME THA WHEN I'M GOING THROUGH YOU SAY I DONE SOMETHING WRONG. BUT WHEN YOU GOING THROUGH THE LORD JUST TESTINGYOU? I'M ON TV. I GOT TO SAY IT RIGHT. I FORGOT I'M ON TV. HOW COME THE LORD CAN'T BE TESTING ME? OH, OH. GOD I FEEL IT. I FEEL YOU WREATHING ON MEEF. I FEEL THE HOLY GHOST NOW. JESUS SAID NEITHER ONE OF THEM IS SAYING. SO MAMA, DADDY, HOLD YOUR HEAD UP THIS IS BIGGER THAN Y'ALL. THIS HAD TO HAPPEN SO I C GET THEGLORY. LOOK AT WHAT TO THE SAID. LISTEN. I HAD TO LET THIS HAPPEN SO BECAUSE I GOT TO WOR WHILE IT'S STILL DAY. WAS THE NIGHT COMES WHEN NOBODY CAN WORK. IN OTHER WORDS WHILE YOU'RE STILL GOT YOUR GOOD HEALTH, WHILE YOU HAVE THE BLOOD RUNNING WARM THIS YOUR VEINS YOU HAVE TO DO ALL YOU CAN, WHILE YOU'VE GOT A CHANCE TO DO THAT WAS ONE DAY ALL OF US HAVE TO FACETHIS. GOD SAID AS LONG AS CUPCAKE WAS IN THE WORLD SHE WAS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. NOW, SHE'S NO LONGER IN THE WORLD SHE'S STILL THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. HOW DO I KNOW?- BECAUSE THE WHOLE TIME, THE WHOLE CITY, AND COUNTRY, THE WHOLE WORD IS WATCHING HER LIFE UNFOLDNOW! ISN'T IT AMAZING THIS AIN'T THE FIRST TIME WE'VE HEARD ABOUT A BABY BEING KIDNAPPED? THIS AIN'T THE FIRST TIME WE DONE HEARD ABOUT A BABY GOING MISSING? AND THE QUESTION GOT TO BE ASKED WHAT MAKES THIS BABY SO DIFFERENT? WATCH THIS. THE MAN SAID, THE MAN SAID, JESUS CAME AND PUT DIRT ON HIS EYES. READ IT. THAT IS MY TRANSLATION. THAT IS MYTRANSLATION. I KEEP FORGETTING I'M ON TV. I KEEP TELLING MY PEOPLE I'M IN THE READY FOR TV. BUT SINCE Y'ALL HERE I'M GOING TO TURN IT ALL THE WAY UP. THE BIBLE SAYS THAT JESUS MAKES A MUD PIE PUT IT ON THE MAN'S OOIZ TOLD HIM TO WASH IT IN THE POOL AND THE BIBLE SAID THE MAN DID WHAT JESUS SAID, DIPPED IN THE PO AND HERE COM SOME TEEN DAY. I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT WHO DAY IS. WHEN YOU COME TELLING ME ABOUT THEY, THEY MIGHT BE YOU. WATCH ME. I'VE GOT TGO IS THI NOT WHO? OTHERS SAY HE'S LIKE HI HE SAID THIS ISME. HOW ARE YOU GOING TO ASK SOMEONE ELSE SOMETHING ABOUT ME? WHEN YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO KNOW ME? HOW ARE YOU GOING TO ASK THEM ABOUT ME? YOU ARE ON MY FACEBOOK PAGE AND FOLLOWING M ON TWITTER. AND YOU'VE GOT M PHONE NUMBER YES. THEY SAID HOW ARE YOUR EYES OPEN? WATCH HOW THE MAN ANSWERED. HE SAID WHEN HE, WHEN THEY ASKED HIM THAT HE SAID I DO NOT KNOW. ALL I KNOW KNOW IS THAT A MAN NAMED JESUS PUT SOMETHING ON MY EYES, TOLD ME TO GO WASH. I DID WHAT HE SAID. AND I CAME BACK AND SAID I CANNOT EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED BUT I KNOW GOD DID IT. PREACHERS, PASTORS, APOSTLES, WHATEVER TITLE YOU'VE GOT, I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T KNOW WHY I DON'T BREAKDOWN LIKE I SHOULD BE BREAKING DOWN. I DON'T KNOW WHY I AIN'T CRYING LIKE YOU THINK I OUGHT TO BE CRYING. I DON'T KNOW WHY I STILL LOVE FOLK THAT'S MISTREAT ME. I DON'T KNOW WHY I STILL PRAY FOR MY ENEMY. I DON'T KNOW WHY I'M STILL AT THE PLACE I'M AT. I DON'T KNOW. JESUS DID IT. I CAN TELL YOU WHAT I DO KNOW. WHAT I DO KNOW. SAY I KNOW SOMETHING. I AIN'T GOT NO HELP. SAY I KNOWSOMETHING. YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW FROM BELIEVING TO KNOWING. MY HEART WASN'T RIGHT BUT SOMETHING GOT A HOLD OF ME AND WHATEVER IT WAS, IT WON'T LET ME HOLD MY PEACE.
