<TITLE>05. Par 17-19</TITLE>L-17 It might happen today. What a glorious hour for it to take place. And, Father, I--I pray that our hearts will be moved as we think of that. For You said when the signs that we see appearing now, "to lift up our heads our redemption is drawing night," and I just pray, God, that You will bless--bless the church, Brother Boze, his--the Philadelphian church that's sponsoring the meeting here.
God, we pray that You will give them the exceedingly abundantly. And bless this tabernacle, Lord, this great place here where many of Your servants that's under Your altar today there with You; has preached in this same pulpit that wonderful great evangelist, Billy Sunday, and Paul Rader, and many of the others who's done crossed over the Jordan.
Father, we pray that You will send the power that was upon them, that brought conviction to the sinner, send Him this afternoon. The same Holy Spirit still lives and reigns, watching over the work. "I, the Lord, have planted it. I will water it day and night lest some should pluck it from My hand."

L-18 Grant it, Father. Bless the pastor here. Bless all the elders, the--the deacons and whatever; bless them together. And the laity, bless them. Forgive us of our sins and bless every church that's represented, every organization and body. For we're not divided; we're all one in Christ.
Now, help Your humble servant this afternoon, Lord, not knowing what to say, but believing that You will supply those things, I commit myself to You with this church that You circumcise my lips, to speak the right thing, and the hearts of the people to receive it, and may the Holy Spirit take the Word of God and give it to each heart as we have need. For we ask it in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.
In the 14th chapter of Saint John which is a very familiar place that people read everywhere. Many people, that's their favorite chapter. I guess if I'd ask this afternoon how many that's your favorite chapter, they'd be many, many hands go up in the building. Just how many is it? I seen some of you raise your hands, 14th chapter of Saint John. See? It's one of their favorite chapters of the Bible. It's a very consoling chapter.

L-19 Now, wish to read first seven or eight verses of it, and then the Lord willing, we'll speak just a little while on it.
And now, I want to announce: tonight is the closing night. Now, there'll be great anticipation tonight. You'll probably see more of the works of the Lord did tonight than any other night. It's always that way in the meeting, 'cause people... If they're going to believe, they got to do right now. That's all. It's got to be right now or not at all, and that's when you usually see the greatest meeting is on the last night.
Now, we read from Saint John 14 these verses:
Let not your hearts be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it was not so, I would have told you. I go and prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place, I will come again, to receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
And where I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not where thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Jesus said unto him, I am the way, truth and the life: no man cometh to the Father, but by me.
If ye had known me, you should have known my Father also: and from henceforth you know him, and have seen him.
Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
And may the Lord add His blessings to those Words.
