'GOD exists in a'Gift' accentuates the essence of whatJESSY's name meant& who he became to a generation of patrons.WhenJessy began his acsension into frame,I was privileged to become ac quainted w him@ his induction into holiness@ FAITH TempleCoGiC.Contemporaries like Sara Jordan powell,Rosemary Blackwell,Wilma Blunt forged lifelong friendships& stood proxy prayerful ly interceding throu his life.In my youth I attended Prayer Services Jessy began in his home with the late Evang John Lawrence.

She would be singing,and in between lines I would do these nice little' runs' on the organ.The crowd loved it and I guess I was taking a little too much attention Laughing,she wouid walk over and say,'' Solten down baby, the people came to hear ' HALLIE' ! ''
people like that visited her.People loved to be around her.She was comcalShe was like a comedian saying things with a straight face that would make peop le crack up.I was just a kid&after they would talk & eat,I would go over to the panio & she would have me sing.That's how I got to play for her.There was a big Baptist convention in town.They organized a thousand(1000-voice) choir & she was the guest soloist.She asked me to play the organ and I knew her songs from those evenings at her home.
One example of MAHALIA influence is recalled by Jessy Dixon as he relates n his youth her mentoring his career''I was15& playing n the Omega Baptist Ch n Chgo w a 50voice choirWe had a radio show every sun nite.The place would b packedMAHALIA would sweep n w her entourage to come&hear me I recall ed her telling me I remember u being a snony nosed5yrold boy playin the org an I knew then you were a starShe had this 5000sq ft condo &she would have me come overThere would be all these movie stars
Phillipians2:1-5Mahalia protayed this scipture in lifeThe next definition of her name,MAHALIA was the embodiment of'TENDERNESS & COMPASSION'. MAHALIA also meant'BARREN'.Altho she never had children,she nurtured many individuals in their pursuit of a career in Gospel Music.
''If you have any encouragement from being united wChrist,if any comfort from his love,if any fellowship w the Spirit,if anyTENDERNESS&Conpass ion,then make my joy complete by being like minded,having the same lov e,being one in spirit&purpose.Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit,but in humility consider others better than yourselves.Each of you should look not only to your own interests,but also to the interests of oth ers.Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus''
MAHALIA,an Architect ofGospel Music,was as well a Back-BONE to structure the genre it becameHeb4:12NLT'For the word of God is alive&powerful.It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword,cutting between soul&spirit,bet ween joint &'MARROW'.It exposes our innermost thoughts &desires Prov3:2,8 NIVsays'You will prolong your life by keeping the Lord's teachings & commands & 'this will bring health to your body &nourishment to your(marrow)bonesJob21: 24'His body was well &his bones rich w/'marrow'.
In Hebrews,condensed in'one word name'-Mahalia amazingly possessed seve ral categories of definitions.Pt2.MAHALIA is defined 'MARROW ';the meat found in the interior of the bone producing500 billion blood cells,daily.Coincidently,in the embryonic/infant stage,Mahalia suffered w/bow-leggs;a condition afflicting the marrow of the boneMahalia's name is associated w/ a miracle she received as a child when healed of bone marrow,as her mother Charity anointed &pray ed over her legs with dishwater.
MAHALIA's name is unusual,astounding,&defined in 3 categories.Mahalia is hebrew origin;Mahalia is simular to an biblical ancestor,'MAHALEEL' Praise GOD'.He's list fifth antedulvian Patriarch among genealogies.Gen5:12-17In he brews,Mahalia,aka'Hallie'is'Halle-lujah translated from Ma-haleelThe lanuage has more than one definition forHalle-lujah' the highest praise& 'to become in sane,irrational,go nuts.MAHALIA means -'praiseGod w the highest praise like you' ve lost your mind!'

The depravity of man's inhuman treatment to dominate and disrepect each other ultimately resulted in the nightmare;' Slavery 'Luke22:24records,''And there was also strife among them,which of them should be accounted the gre atest .If any man desires to be first,the same shall be last of all.But who so ever will be greatest among you shall be your servant! Matthew.23:11TLN
The first civil rivalry began when Cain who envyed his brother Abel,because God accepted his brother's offering instead.In strife,Cain competed in an quest for greatness and dominance over his brother.Cain become enraged with Abel,kill ed him ,committing the first murder.
Man made in God's image,was given' Dominion',to have complete authority over all living creatures;birds,fish,tame beasts;everything creeping over the earth.At man's disgretion he named every animal.Note:Man'sDOMINION was limited to the animal kingdom.When man developed a 'sin-nature' he exibited animalistic behavior like the creatures he was chose to oversee.Genesis4:6 says,The Lord inquired why Cain was so up set, presenting his offering'' If thou doest well,shalt thou not be accepted?''.

The essence of 'DOMINION'& the source of it's orgin is defined in the prayer of David1Chronicle29:11-13'Yours,O Lord,is the greatness,&the power,& the glory& the victory&the majesty,indeed everthing that is in the heavens,&the earth;Yours is the DOMINION,O Lord,& this is your kingdom.O Lord & you exalt yourself as head over all.Weath & honor comes from you alone for you rule over every thing. Power& might are in your hand,& at your discretion people are made 'GREAT'& given strength''.(NLT&ASB,V)
'' There will be joy and songs of thanksgiving and I will ' MULTIPLY ' my people, not diminish them I will honor them, not despise them ''.Jeremiah30:19.Our Afric an- Ancestors must have been inspired to pattern their lives from scriptures , like ,Acts13:17 '' The God of this nation of Israel chose our ancestors and made them ' MULTIPLY ' and grow strong durning their stay in Egypt. Then with a pow erful arm He led them out of their slavery. ''
Gen.1:28 indicates God's edict is that we are to ultimately ' Be Fruitful' & produce in every aspect of our lives.This implies more than childbearing.Psa 92:14'' even in old age they will still produce ' fruit ',they will remain vital and green'' Prov.9:11'' Wisdom will ' MULTIPLY ' your days and add years to your life''.Psa.1:3'' They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing ' fruit ' each season.Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in ALL they do ''.(TLN)
The MILLENIUM Class of 2011' has resumed our lesson.The Roots of 'African-American Music' with the sacred Negro Spirituals by slave ancestors developed into Gospel music.Our music permeated the American culture giving birth to the genres of Jazz,Blues, Rock,Soul,R&B,hip hop,etc.We'll give you an brief,but extra ordinary view of facts not commonly recognized.The Bible reveals from creation that God brought us forth to inhabit this sphere of time,'' be fruitful &multiply and have dominion''.
''For there our captors asked us for songs,our tormentors demanded songs of joy; they said,'sing to us one of the songs of Zion.'How can we sing the songs of the Lord while in a foreign (strange) land?''(Psalms137:3,4NIV).Specfic details regard ing 'Negro Spirituals' are lost in antiquity.Through folklore,our Slave-Ancestors post humously were credited with creating beautiful music,which outlined their life expier ence as suggested in Psalms 90:9 '' We spend our years as a tale that is told. ''
''Speaking to one another with psalms,hymns &spiritual songs.Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord.''Ephes5:19(NIV)African-American Ancestors were a resili ent people who left a great heritage.Slaves listened to Bible stories,altho they were restricted from reading them.Cleverly & poignantly they were inspired to sing songs they were capable of interpreting hidden meanings to each other.Modeling themsel ves equivalent to biblical heroes they incorporated this into their plans to escape.
In the midst of despair,our ancestors brilliantly created secret communication through singing.They revealed imminent plans to exodus while simultaneously entertaining the master.Embroidered in our history are ' Spirituals 'songs that became anthems; ''Steal away,Lord,I aint got long to be here!'' ThIs song became the drum beat to freedom!
In African-American culture there's a tendency to suppress ones feeling toward trans itioning to eternal life.Death is an foreboding subject,considered to be eerie.The occur rence happens so frequently,it's dealt with negatively.Preacher's perverbial express ion is '' We all want to go to heaven,but no body wants to die to get there.'' Coming up from slavery,and inheritly feeling melancholy we can associate with our ancestors as they desired to escape to freedom.

And I will write on them the name of my God,and they will be citizens in the city of my God~the new Jerusalem that comes down from hea ven from my God.And I will also write on them My' New NAME!'(This is ''JESUS'' talking,How awesome is that !!!)OH GLORY HALLELUJAH!

Study'The Word'@ your leisure.Read entirely Psalms139,NKJV,& NLT,etc.The late Pastor E.R.Allen taught us to personalize scripture.By placing yourself in the passage you made it come to life.In our new Heavenly address,we will not only get a'' New Name written in Glory !'' But as we are the Masterpiece of the Lord,He will as The Artist place the signature of his''New NAME'' on our lives Revelations 3:12 reveals this statement so unfathomable regarding our new lives in the Cel estial here after.
'' My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place.Your eyes saw my unformed body.All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.Rev3:5says' I will never blot out their NAMES from the book of Life, but will acknowlledge their names before my father and his angels.''To her that overcometh will I give ...her a white stone,and on the stone, a new name written which no man knoweth save her that recieves it .'' paraphrased from Rev.2:17
Conveniently, you will discover with my findings a revelation that God propheticly created MAHALIA with a secret meaning to her name.This study will conclusively reveal that GOD himself divinely inspires what names are given to his people.An example that the Lord is' Alpha & Omega' is revealed by David in Psalms139:13 -16 (NKJV) ''For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb,I praise you because I am fearfully & wonderfully made .( continued)

1911~ Legendary ' M A H A L I A ' JACKSON: A Synopsis in Greatness ! ~ 2011 This Memorial holiday,we salute her @ the centennial milestone of her birth.We reflect on the extraordinary contributions made by MAHALIA,as one of the' trailblaz ers & Architects of Gospel music'.MAHALIA's name was widely advertised on bill boards,magazines,and posted on the marquees of famous theatres & concert halls.Without further suspense let's take a behind the scene view of what her name really meant!
Holy Writ records geneologies where God chose personages who were key figur es that impacted Biblical History.Thru divine impartation those individuals debut ed w/ names that had prophetic meanings indicating what destiny they would full fill.'' What's in a name?that which we call a rose.By any other name would smell as sweet!'' ~Wm Shakepeare. Altho people were named after her there was only #1 'MAHALIA' who gained notority & was renowned on a ' first name basis'' as Biblical Characters.
Hebrews12:2 says; As' The Author',the Lord script an cameo for Charity in little halie's life.Charity means Love & truely,''Charity begins @ home''Charity,the most significant person in her daughter's life, nurtured & anointed her legs for a journ ey to fulfill her destiny.Charity became the first decedant sacrificed in her life.Mak ing Mahalia a orphan @ 5 yrs.Coincidentally,a focal point surrounding her suffer ing with her legs is associated with the meaning of ' M A H A L I A' s' name.
Doctors predicted this disability could severely impeded her to walk later in life.They recommended surgery by breaking her leggs.Mahalia's Aunts were vehemently opposed to this advice & dismissed it as foolishness.Because of her family's meager circumstances,they resourced to use '' ole folk cures''.Mahalia's Mother,Charity lovingly rubbed down and bathe her child in greasy dish water. This condition never stopped little Halie from dancing for the white lady her moth er & aunt cleaned house for
He raiseth up the poor out the dust,and lifteth up the beggar from the dung hill to set them among princes,and to make them inherit the throne of glory.(1Samuel2:8) At the onset of life,Mahalia expierenced overwhelming hardships.From birth she suff ered with an debilitating illness called genu varum or ' bow-legged'.
1911~Legendary ' M A H A L I A J A C K S O N ': a synopsis in Greatness! ~2011 The greatly beloved MAHALIA was a gift treasured by the earth,from heaven an angel on loan.Oberving ' little Halie's precocious talent to sing, her Aunt Bell, propheticly remarked that ''one day Mahalia would sing before royalty ''.Prophetic declarations regarding Abraham are applicable to Mahalia,as well(Genesis12:2) MAHALIA,''l will bless thee,and make thy name great;and thou shalt be a blessing:
MAHALIA was nicknamed ' little halie ' to make the distinction from her namesake Mahalia aka ''Aunt Duke,the Boss''.Little Halie was born into direr poverty dwelling in a three room -house with thirteen kinfolks& a dog.Besides her parents,& bro ther ,this extended brood of siblings,consisting of the patriarch grandfather Rev.Paul Clark ,Aunts,Uncles,as well as their children. ( part # 3)
1911~2011 Retrospectively, we now understand how GOD who is Ominiscient,in his infinite wisdom planned the journey,that MAHALIA 's life took, and how it un folded like a flower blossom growing with thorns.'' But He knoweth the way that I take: and when He hath tried me, I shall come forth as GOLD '' Job 23:10( part #2)
Mahalia,a valiant proponent of gospel music,refused to compromized her integrity to sing secular music.Dispite lucrative offers,she held to her conviction;insisting to only sing exclusively for the Lord.An abusive husband/manager separated from her,opposing her choice to remain faithful to' Gospel Music' .This endeared the Beloved Mahalia's Legacy to the world,solidifing forever her place in the genre of ' GOSPEL ' Music history !
MAHALIAH JACKSON Queen of Gospel born Oct.26,1911graced this earth with her presence,enhancing the world.With her legendary voice,she is remembered for singing for Dr.Martin Luther King,'Precious Lord,take my hand''.She song for US Presidents,Kings,Queens&World leaders,representing '' Gospel Music'',as a message of ' LOVE' to all humanity.She was summoned to Heaven Jan.27,1972 for a Royal Recital to seranade,' The KING of kings & LORD of Lords.What a day --'' When the Saints go marching In!

I am just wondering what makes him play the tambourine so hard? Does he really want all the attention? Also, he should have taken off his hat in church. Isn't he in a COGIC church? I am Baptist, and all men take off their hats or the deacon will come to tell you to take it off. I know COGIC does the same thing. If I was sitting in front of him and one of them jingles came off and hit me in my head, then more than just that tambourine would have been hit...LOL.
I dont think serious is the right word, he took playing the tambourine to a new level. This is what happens when you give a crazy person a tambourine.
correct me if i'm wrong, but does he have a pray veil on his head? also, from the start of the clip u can tell this man is loaded with unclean spirits. where's the power? instead of laughing they should have put it under subjection
im so mad at him......lmbo.....that was hilarious, but its not funny if your the person sitting next to him. yes praise him with the timbrel and dance but the word also says to do all things in decency and in order.

My hat is an african hat called an "kufia''that is customarily wore in religious settings accepted by Christians,Jews,&Muslins Faith around the world.Many of our Senior CoGiC Clergmen began the tradition of wearing 'kufis' in the early 1900s up to the present (exams-Bish'Pappa Roberts,1876-1953,---Elder Donald E. Henton1930-2008 post by MisterTambourineBro)I have worn my 'kifias'to honor the memories of our sanctied fathers & celebrate the milestone of CoGiC's Centenial era.

I am just wondering what makes him play the tambourine so hard? Does he really want all the attention? Also, he should have taken off his hat in church. Isn't he in a COGIC church? I am Baptist, and all men take off their hats or the deacon will come to tell you to take it off. I know COGIC does the same thing. If I was sitting in front of him and one of them jingles came off and hit me in my head, then more than just that tambourine would have been hit...LOL.
