<TITLE>12. Par 55-59</TITLE>L-55 What's the matter with me tonight anyhow? Let me tell you, my brother, what we need today, is a good old time Saint Paul's revival and the Bible, Holy Ghost back in the Church again. Amen.
They fed him this stuff for ten days, little old pot of peas, or ever what it was. Nothing in it all to make you fat. First thing you know, they brought Daniel up, and the rest of them, they looked all the boys over.
When they brought old Brother Daniel up, my, his cheeks was rosy. He was just as round and fat as he could be. Hallelujah. Said, "Say." I believe every time they set that little pot of peas down before Daniel, that God just reached over and got the vitamin bottle and poured the whole thing into them. Amen. Hallelujah.

L-56 He's still got them in glory tonight if you will keep His commandments, do His will, follow after the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and seek to serve God. Amen. Oh, I feel good.
Look, brother. God just fed Daniel with some kind of a vitamin. But I can see him standing there just as round and fat as he could be. I can hear one of them say, "Say, that guy hasn't had too much to eat. I just give him a corn pone every morning." That's all he had.
But God said here, "I'll bless your bread and water."
I'd rather live for God and have bread and water, than live for the devil and have fried chicken and ice cream three times a day, wouldn't you? Sure. Yes, sir.

L-57 Daniel was just as fat and round as he could be, you know, and his cheeks just as rosy. He walked up there and said, "Yes, sir. Your Honor, sir. Here I am."
Looked him over. Said, "My, he's done out growed his clothes nearly, eating a por--corn pone every morning." My, how God will bless.
Listen, brother, don't desire the big things of this world, but be satisfied with what God's give you. The only to be, is be sure you're in the will of God.
I see the other three. Let's see what their test come, one time. They was going to burn them up one morning because that they wouldn't drink the king's wine and bow down to his images.

L-58 Let's take a little look at that for a few minutes. I see it in Babylon. It's getting up in the daytime. Old king had said, "Anybody that won't bow to that image, will be throwed in the fiery furnace that's het hotter than the Gospel Tabernacle in Chicago." All right. Said, "It'd be seven times hotter than it's ever been het, ever who won't bow to that image."
Well, these boys turned their back on it. "All right," he said, "I'm going to throw them in the fiery furnace." I can look down in Babylon that morning. Amen. I can look, and I can see the whole sky red. The king Nebuchadnezzar had hisself a seat setting out there, you know, as it was, his legs crossed. Said, "Bring out them holy-rollers. We'll burn that religion out of them."

L-59 Brother, you can't make fire fight fire. The Holy Ghost is Fire Itself. That's right. Said, "Bring them out and we'll burn that religion out of them. We'll make them bow down." I can hear Shadrach and Meshach and Abednego starting up that gangplank there, going to drop off into the furnace. I can hear Shadrach say, "Brother Abednego?"
"Yes, Shadrach."
"You sure you prayed through?"
"Yes. I'm sure it's all right. Yeah, got the victory." All right.
Said, "Hey, you want to take it back?"
He said, "Our God is able to deliver us from this fiery furnace. But nevertheless, if He don't do it, we'll not bow down to your image." Amen. Hallelujah. "I'll not bow to your image." They walked a few feet farther. My, looked like God was unconcerned about it.
