<TITLE>10. Par 37-41</TITLE>L-37 She said, "All is well with me. All is well with my husband. And all is well with the child." I love that. Her baby laying a corpse, but, "All is well."
She knew that was God's prophet, and she knew that that was God's man of the hour. And she knew that God was with in prophet. She knew that. And if she could only get to that prophet, she'd find out why God taken her baby.
I like that. I think Martha used the same thing when she met Jesus.
So the prophet looked at her, and so he... She fell down at his feet. Gehazi jerked her up, around his master like that. Then she begin to reveal to him what had happened.
Now, watch, he said, "Gehazi, you take my staff and go forward. Don't you salute anybody; don't speak to anybody. If anybody speaks to you, don't you even speak to them. And go lay this staff upon the baby."

L-38 Now, Elijah knew that everything he touched was blessed. But now, if he could get the woman to believe it. I think that's where Paul got his handkerchiefs. See? He knowed God was in Him. And Elijah knew what he blessed, what he put his hands on was blessed. That's why we have the order of laying hands on the sick, what you touch is blessed. That's the reason from Paul's body they taken handkerchiefs and aprons. That's the reason the shadow of Peter passed over the public, and they recognized It.
Let's get that Shunammite woman just a little further. I love that case. Look. But she didn't have no faith in the--in the--in the stick. She said, "As the Lord lives, and your souls lives, I'll not leave you." Determined, I like that. Don't you? She said, "I'm going to stay right with you."

L-39 So he girded up his loins and started off. Got over to the home, and everybody weeping and screaming and carrying. Poor Elijah didn't know what to do. Now, watch. He went into the room where the dead baby was laying. And Elijah walked up-and-down the floor, to-and-fro, to-and-fro, not prayer now, walking up-and-down the floor. Then he went and laid his body on the baby's body, his lips against the baby's lips, his nose against the baby's nose, his head against the baby's head. And he laid there.

L-40 God in him... The baby's flesh got warm. He got up, walked back and forth, up-and-down the floor again; come back, laid down across the baby again, his lips against the baby's lips, his nose against the baby's nose, his hands against the baby's hands; and the baby sneezed seven times (Wished I had time to go into that number seven there, but we haven't.), sneezed seven times, and come to life.
God was in that prophet. And that woman knowed if she could ever get that prophet in... God was in His prophet, and if she would ever get in contact with His prophet, she would find out about her baby. And her baby was restored back to her alive again; because she respected God in His servant. Is that right?

L-41 That's why the people got healed from the handkerchiefs Paul sent; they knowed God was in that apostle. They knowed he was not only an apostle, he was a prophet. And they took from his body, handkerchiefs and aprons and laid unto the sick, and evil spirits went out of them, and they were healed. Is that right?
Let's bow our heads. Lord Jesus, here lays before me here, handkerchiefs. Some dear old, maybe, blind daddy, setting out here in a little cabin somewhere behind a cotton patch, behind a little old cooking stove tonight, waiting for this handkerchief to come... Maybe, some mother out yonder wondering just when the handkerchief will return, with a little afflicted baby laying on the bed as she's bathing it now to put it to sleep; waiting for this handkerchief to return. God look down on the scene's.
