OCTOBER 13 ~ 15 Kicking off at 4:00 PM CST in 100 Block of North Greenwood Ave., Tulsa, Oklahoma, AKA “The Original Black Wall Street.” 

Minister Alvin Muhammad is sounding the alarm and encouraging all men and women, men specifically, to stand up and reflect on the stance and the power of the Million Man March on October 16, 1995. He has put out the call to “Stop the Killing” and for all bikers, bike clubs, fraternities, sororities, organizations, HBCUs, sports teams, dance teams, and others to step up to the plate, join the force, lock arms and show up for this first annual inaugural event to build a strong community of communities. 

Building a solid community first requires a decision to START building, time, effort, and a commitment to creating a welcoming and supportive environment for everyone involved. “We must care about our people, period. We must care and protest when one of our own is murdered by anyone,” stated Muhammad on a recent broadcast of his show, Trumpet on Greenwood (2023). By coming together and showing unity, we can begin to change and reshape the communities we where we live, work and play. We must identify the most prevalent needs of the community, educate and encourage everyone to get involved, communicate openly and transparently, celebrate “Us,” and, of course, GIVE BACK!

Together, we can create a supportive, inclusive, and thriving community!

Take the Challenge: Pray for your Enemies for 21 Days

Take the Challenge: Pray for your Enemies for 21 Days that The Greenwood Beat – WFPG founder has started. Research indicates doing something twenty-one times will become a habit. Thus, Angela K. Chambers has shared this challenge on her social media platform, Angela K. Chambers.

Angela says, “As I seek God more, my heart posture changes and my greatest desire is to be obedient and follow his commandments. Matthew 5:43-45 states: You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. ‘ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. I want to know that I am a child of my Father in heaven.”

I was going to schedule the post God gave me, but that wasn’t what he told me to do. So, each morning, I pray and then share what God gives me to share. God reminded me that this is daily mana for me. I choose to be obedient. The blessings revealed for my obedience cannot be measured. 

The Soul of our enemies was the first prayer area for our enemies on Day 1. To date, we have prayed: Day 2 – Health, Day 3 – Mental State, Day 4 – Relationships, Day 5 – Finances, and Day 6 – Family.  

“It is not too late to join us on this journey. I would be delighted to have anyone agree with God’s Word as much as possible, says Angela.” Connect with me on Facebook for daily prayer areas. 

Obedience is better than sacrifice.
