Prayers and crying out are two different things. God recognize crying out when the people are void of a prophet. For instance, from the Children of Israel’s crying out brought forth Prophet Moses. After the coming of Prophet Moses crying out turned into prayers since the Children of Israel now have a prophet a direct connection to God. Crying out indicates systemic and historical pain and suffering over a period of 100’s of years! Prayers indicate a desire for a permanent solution from God only! No people can pray to God unless they can claim a prophet and that prophet must be the same race as the people are.
Black on Black crimes is not our priority. Our priority is to be out of the hands of White America and into our own sovereign country to govern ourselves and excel. So, let us pray now that we have our own Prophet Harry for a permanent solution. In our permanent solution will be everlasting peace. Put our sovereignty in front of peace.
