<TITLE>10. Par 38-41</TITLE>L-38 I started turn to the woman. I looked going down across the audience and here went that old congressman. Now, he was dressed with a blue suit and a red tie on (which if any of you know him, that was his very way he liked to dress.), but this time he had on a brown suit, light brown with a white stripe in it. And he had on one of these hats like I wear. Frankly, he's the one sends them to me. So--so he had one of those hats on, southern hat, little Stetson, and he was going along, tipping his hat with his very southern hospitality you know, tipping his hat very gentleman like going down the street like that, walking down over the people.
I knew God had done it. I--I... When that takes place, brother, there's... Just like having this meeting in India and what's going to take in--in Africa, there is nothing in the world could rub that from me. I know it's going to be. When God says so, it's never failed, and it can't fail. It's God. That's not faith. That's just acting out what He said do.

L-39 I knowed that that man was healed. I looked again. I thought, "Now's the time," and I said, "Congressman."
And he said, "Yes, my son."
And I said, "I would like to ask you a question."
He said, "Yes, sir."
I said, "Do you own a brown pin striped suit?"
He said, "Yes, sir, my son, I bought one day before yesterday."
I said, "Well, my brother in Christ, though you have laid sixty-six years on crutches, wheelchairs, and beds, and rushed up, and believed in healing all your life."
"That's right."
I said, "But... And stood for pro--against the evil, refused to become president, because you chose the right thing, God has honored you, and Jesus Christ has healed you."
He said, "God be praised, my boy." He said, "If Jesus Christ will ever let me walk without crutches and things again," said, "I'll--I'll spend the rest of my days, which is very few I know left, I'll spend them for His glory."
I said, "Congressman," and I felt myself fainting then. Done got me. I said, "In the Name of Jesus Christ stand up to your feet. God's healed you."

L-40 And that man who had been invalid for sixty-six years, the congressman of the United States rose to his feet, rushed to the platform, reached down, touched his toes, raised back up, and was perfectly normal as long as he lived. That's right. Went to see Churchill, visit him, stood in time in Billy Graham's meeting up there on the White House steps and sang before those congressmen, "Leaning On The Everlasting Arms."
God... The man lived so long. He went over years after that. That's been about four years ago. Brother Bosworth has been with him. We've been in the meetings. He crossed back across the country. I took my own love offering and many things for him and helped him to buy a car. He went across the country testifying from school to places, everywhere, of the power of the living God.

L-41 Look like if God would've wanted to heal him, He would've healed him when he was a young man and his bones were all flexible, soft. Looked like He wouldn't have waited till his bones was old, and brittle, and his back broke just like President Roosevelt, but that man who had been an invalid for sixty-six years in wheelchairs, and rolling bed, and could walk with the support of crutches to his back, rose to his feet in one moment's time and was made perfectly whole by the power of the resurrected Jesus Christ.
He was acquainted with nearly all the kings and potentates of the nations, known by being a congressman. He even kindly had me to sign my name to a letter that went to Joe Stalin. That's right, and spoke to him, and told him of his healing, of how God had healed him and told him if he would come this side of the Iron Curtain he'd prove it to him. He was quite a sense of humor--the congressman was.
