On August 28, 1963 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr delivered a prophetic sermon which changed our world forever. From one mans dream, revealed nearly 47 years ago, our nations first African American President (2 years old when the speech was delivered) will serve as President on his FIRST Martin Luther King day!!! Remember, the inauguration was January 20, 2009 – MLK day is January 18, 2010!!

This is the best example of continued faith and perseverance for the mass public – almost our modern day Red Sea, no Moses… Therefore, to those whom doubt if GOD answers prayers, open your eyes!

I want to end this post with excerpts from Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have A Dream” speech!

“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin
but by the content of their character.

I have a dream today.

I have a dream that one day down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification – one day right there in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers.

I have a dream today.”
