Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." ~ Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

[@SonOfSoulEnt]

Look closely at Martin’s face. Almost instantly when he heard Mahalia’s voice, he started smiling. That’s the affect&conviction that her voice had&still to this very day how ironic in so many decades after her passing. Them folks was in there having some good CHUUUUCH ‼️The Legendary 1st Crowned Queen of The Gospel⛪️👑RIP🕊🌹

[@Alexp36500]

It's also the song she chose to sing. She's basically saying "God chose him to lead his people into freedom" she's giving him her blessing basically. Well lead the people of the church to freedom... everyone else gets thrown out.

[@victorburroughs912]

I thought it was just me saw his face when she start singing. Amazing 👏 Man and lady of God.

[@blenaris1]

That was his girl. He felt so confident when she would sing.

[@tjbelcher7685]

So good, I get chills Everytime I hear her sing

[@truthseeker2000]

I've NEVER seen Martin Luther King Jr SMILE so much. Martin Luther King Jr had a full written speech prepared. But Mahalia Jackson told him "Tell them your dream, tell them your dream." He put down his papers & the famous 'I have a dream' speech was seared into our consciences forever. What an anointed friendship they had!

[@smilaugh]

I feel so bad in my heart, 😭. White supremacists and racists made Luther King life a hell on earth, every day was a struggle. A struggle just to put across what is obvious and right, that all men are created equal and should be treated equal. Just that, and they made him a kill target, made him an enemy. Don't we know we are children of same God, color variations are just a way of beauty in His garden of flowers. God, forgive humanity.

Do y'all see how far that mic is from her mouth & she is STILL SANGING DOWN & booming over the claps & choir.

[@c1nnamon11]

What a supernatural moment to witness. Her anointing was astounding. I could only imagine how Holy Spirit moved through there.

[@mariahlehoko993]

I just wanna thank the cameraman for capturing this beautiful moment😭can’t imagine the feeling of being in that room

[@latoyaboyd3754]

How nervously this man looked to do gods work yet he found the will and bravery for the cause he chose to fight and having god on his side help him over come his fear and mahalia great voice.

[@Bobby-fc8pf]

This video always gives me Goosebumps. MLK and Mahalia look so happy. Legends from God💯

[@alecb3332]

That's the joy of our Lord, my brother.

[@johntatum1951]

Mahalia had the gift for sure...and Dr King felt it ...a great start for his sermon...thanks for sharing this special moment...love this happy time for all peoples. Praise the Lord! He spoke against all kinds of bigotry...such a wonderful preacher man.

[@sarahl.7442]

Whenever you want to praise the Lord deep in your heart, listen to Mahaila Jackson.

[@cliffstewart823]

The perfect song for the civil rights movement, thanks queen Mahalia! Martin gave his life fighting the Battle of Jericho.

[@marybrewer2203]

My grandmother loved Mahalia's voice. I think that is why she encouraged me to sing the Gospel. Thank you, grandma! What a good speech/sermon to hear on a Sunday evening.

[@Merci-h3x]

Dr. Martin Luther King's dream will come to pass. Peace and unity. Watch his dream speech. Hate, jealousy and biases must end. Sealed.

[@simplycarlton5582]

This is one of my favorite Mahalia Jackson Performances, You Can see how Charmed Rev. King Was When he Recognized Her Voice before She came on stage, she had no mic & sang her heart out & lefted everyone's spirits. Dr. King was fit to fight the battle of Racial Equally & Justice for civil rights For All Mankind Just as Joshua was fit to fight the battle of Jericho. Hallelujah 🙏🙏 🙏🙏 Amen 🙏 🙏🙏 🙏🙏 🙏

[@sanchez73day36]

Mlk and mahaila had similar eyes when they 😊

[@arnold934]

The Kings sermon and the Queens interruption by the Holy Spirit should be seen by all! Such a terrible, but powerful time in American history.

[@kendrasmith8087]

What a wonderful support this queen was for Dr. King❤❤❤. God has perfect time. Dr. King was comforted by her wonderful voice. Phenomenal ❤❤❤

[@johnhagans2190]

The smile, I am fighting years of oppression, privilege & indifference but your voice and inspiration are my strength.

[@tsuave1867]

Im sitting here filled with tears of joy and saddness at the same time! This just made me want to get back in sombodys church choir!! Please lord use me. Move me not to my own understanding but guide me to where you want my feet planted to serve you for goodness and mercy

[@djp6140]

Once in a lifetime talent!!!...R.I.H Mahalia & Martin. They're with God seeing all the beauty and love in Heaven.

[@SuperGuanine]

😅😂😍😇

[@thatguy9760]

2 ICONS Praising Old Time Religion...My God this was a moment in time that NEEDED to be captured. Thank You for posting it. They Can’t Change This History Lesson!!!!

[@divinethesunshine]

You can feel the spirit through this video ! Everyone got smiles on their faces, the atmosphere is perfect ❤👏

[@robert.m.c63]

This the best thing I think I have ever seen. So much joy in that room, and such a hard battle they were fighting. I feel unworthy even watching this. The absolute joy on her face after she starts singing and could see Dr King smiling….her heart was just filled with the power of God.

[@gospel1619]

This was when we use to protect each other, when we used to love each other and lift each other up. I wish we could get back to being a community and a race with this kind of love, protection and respect for one another. In 2024, our ancestors and the millions that fought for us will be EXTREMELY disappointed in what we’ve become, and how we’ve disrespected and tainted the legacy and foundation they laid for us. They would be shedding so many tears seeing black brothers and sisters killing each other, harming each other, turning on one another and being disgraceful. How sad is it that we were all ONE family, ONE voice and ONE sound back then when we were treated like heards of cattle. Then we gained a little bit of freedom and forgot what our ancestors had to endure for us to enjoy these freedoms and we so stupidly started to dismantle the foundation built on the blood, sweat and tears of our elders. It’s sad to even say that segregation and so many inequalities had us pouring more love and unity into our black community. The trauma of racism had us protecting one another and really feeling like we’re brothers and sisters. We get equal rights and then turn on one another And nobody can make that make sense. Is trauma the ingredient we need to repair the foundation our ancestors died in the process of creating for us?

[@chrisjohnson7039]

Martin’s smile always inspired others to do God’s work✝️💜😁

I have too many clips of Martin Luther king Jr, this is my first time of seeing him smile.

[@tiffanicrayon7027]

My Great grandmother as well as my grandmother use to sing this song and they use to also say “fit” the battle of Jericho but it’s actually “fought” the battle.

[@doperasinger]

What it must’ve been like in that room!!! You can feel all the love power and unity that was there. In the climate of today looking at this encourages me

[@thedurants]

That organ!!!

[@cameronbrownlee308]

I absolutely love this and I always shed tears listening to it idk why but I feel we all should LISTEN

[@nimasahabi9421]

This might be my favorite moment in history!

[@J.Dove3D]

God bless Mr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s and Ms.Mahalia Jackson's souls. May they Rest In Peace.

[@Pablo-j5z]

[@erickaivory7996]

King don’t belong in the presence of god for selling out his people. Which explains why he looks uncomfortable.
