Mason I have to thank you because now I know why God never answered my prayers for financial prosperity and I understand why. I like how you state a fact and then explain its relevance. I thank you for breaking down how a prayer should be constructed and explaining that to recite the words to the Lord’s Prayer isn’t how we pray. You teach us how deep Yahushua was and this goes over so many people’s heads Mason. He knew it too. He knew how primitive and simple minded humans are, and you show how significant forgiveness is. So much so Yahushua asked Adonai to forgive those who crucified him so brutally. Now that’s some powerful stuff for real.

I saw this I watched the awards and it was very impressive.

The article was very well in showing the relevance of understanding the manner in which we should all pray. I was also taken aback about the monitory portion but like Nick when I think about it I have to say that is true as well. I can see why we shouldn’t be praying for something that is obtained in a negative way. Like Mark says, we have increased the family finances positively or by working in reputable professions but the initial fortune weren’t obtained this way. That’s sad when you think about it. So I agree it is not the type of prosperity Adonai would grant. This is what raises the standards and illustrates the higher level of civility our heavenly father is clearly on. I just appreciate that being clarified no matter how uncomfortable it is to hear. It certainly explains why prayers for financial gain receive no response. This is granted by those who have made it valuable. I mean clearly if it was a Godly form of prosperity everyone would have plenty of it.

I agree Jackee, it is quite probable Jesse has what it takes to be a new or modern version of Martin Luther King.

Mason this article explained so much for me. First of all I agree to keep reciting the same words when talking to God is kind of crazy. So I personally thank you for clarifying that is not how we communicate with Adonai. Yahushua said it but it was so far over everyone’s head they didn’t understand what he was saying. I didn’t until you broke it down in this article. Now it makes sense that he was telling us to make certain acknowledge when he told us the manner in which to pray. Wow. I like the significant of the number seven too.

Jesse made a powerful speech and I was brought to tears watching and listening to him. I mean he is serious and it was in his body language as well as the words coming out of his mouth. Part of the reason why I'm done with Facebook is stupid ass black people had the nerve to say Jesse ain't black enough so he shouldn't be speaking for us I'm convinced facebook is the devil.

Yeah I have to agree this one made me take a long hard look at many things in my life. It’s as profound as the face in the mirror JR had us do. This one made us take for responsibility for how we talk to our heavenly father. It reminded us this must be done with the upper most respect and the Lord’s Prayer was Yahushua’s way of guiding us through those acknowledgements. He didn’t tell us what to say. He just gave us an outline that Mason has clarified for us. Seven is a powerful number too. Thank You Mason.

I saw Jesse speak because I watched the BET Awards and I was like this brotha is serious and he put it out there in a way that I haven’t seen anyone else to. Black people are too compliant and that’s what they want. That has to stop because the killing is unacceptable and yeah the police managed to deescalate situations with white offenders all the time without gunning them down. Resorting to shooting black males and beating black females should never be accepted in our society. I tell you what. If Black people in America left I would go with them.

I was having so many revelations just editing this article. I had to call Mason and collaborate with her about things before making simple changes. I felt how the Lord works through us to reveal something like this. You have to be listening and it was a very exciting experience. Laura had it and she told me working with Mason was going to be a very exciting experience when she hired me. She was right.

Jesse’s speech was very motivational and to the point. It reached out and captured something in me that allowed me to really see how difficult life has been for African Americans in this country for over four hundred years.

Mason I read this and thought Oh see, that’s why I don’t get what I want. I pray selfishly and he isn’t hearing that. Wow this is deep for real. It’s so deep it goes over the heads of most people. I mean Yahushua gave us a manner in which we should pray and humans are so ignorant they decided reciting the manner in which we should pray was the way to communicate with God. Someone said DAMN. You’re deep Mason, That’s all I can say. You take us there woman and we don’t get there often. No wonder you don’t like many things. You have a highly intellectual mind and it must get on your nerves dealing with fortunate humans who think that fortune makes them superior.

Jesse Williams reminded me of Obama. They are great leaders and the members in that meeting in Canada reminded me how proud I am of our current President. When black people are good they are very good, they are also the most forgiving and good natured. They are not as greedy and vindictive. I think I'd rather be with them if they were to leave.
