<TITLE>14. Par 42-45</TITLE>L-42 So when the inspiration would be on him, he'd write a song. Then when it left him, not knowing God in the way of salvation and power, he would--he would come out of it, and he'd--he--he wouldn't know what to do. He'd go out and get on a drunk.
And finally, he come out from under it one day and had a servant to bring him a razor and he committed suicide.
Not long ago, when Brother Moore... I'm not sure... I believe Brother Moore... Yes. Brother Moore was with me in England. We stood by the grave of William Cowper, that famous poet that wrote that lovely song, "There Is A Fountain filled with Blood," drawn from Immanuel's veins, when sinners plunge beneath the flood, lose all their guilty stains.
When he wrote that song and come out of the inspiration, he tried to find a river to commit suicide. He didn't know where he was at. In England, he was branded as a neurotic. That was poets.

L-43 Look at prophets. Look at Jonah that we was speaking of awhile ago. After he was kept alive in that whale's belly for three days and nights, come up into Nineveh and walked through that street, giving his--his--his prophecy to a city the size of St. Louis, Missouri... And he gave his prophecy with such force, till even they put sackcloth on their animals and repented. Went up on the hill and set down under a little tree, and when the inspiration left him, he prayed God to take his life. He didn't know where he was at.
Look at Elijah, who went up on Mount Carmel and challenged the whole nation. "Come, prove Who's God." And stood there on that mountain that day and laughed at the prophets of Baalim. Walked out there and said, "Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known today that Thou art God and I am Your servant."
And the Fire of God fell and licked up the water and took up the sacrifice. Then stood right there on... and bowed his little head between his bony body and prayed, and God sent rain on the same day. When it hadn't rained for three years and six months. Not even dew had fell.

L-44 And now, look. What a powerful man. And then run out into the wilderness at the threat of a woman. And wandered in that wilderness for forty days and nights. And when God found him, he had pulled back in a cave somewhere. Is that right?
Said, "What are you doing in there, Elijah?" There you are. So don't wonder. Just remember I'm trying to base these things on the Scripture, so you'll know that what I'm telling you, everything is THUS SAITH THE LORD. It's based in the Scripture. See?
So it--it hasn't been taught by theologians, of course, but the Holy Spirit is teaching it now (See?), to the people. They're finding it in their hearts. May the Lord bless.

L-45 Let's see. We've just been calling about... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... fifteen people at a time, to twenty. Let's call tonight, M... Let's start back--back towards the first. Let's begin at twenty. Let's begin at twenty tonight. Who has M-20, prayer card M-20, raise up your hand, M-20? All right lady, come over here.
M-21, 22, raise up your hand. M-22? Is the prayer card here M-22? Thank you, sir. Come. M-23, 23? Is M-23 here? Would you raise up your hand, M-23? Thank you. 24, M-24, would you raise up your hand? All right. M-25, would you raise up your hand? M-25, M-26, all right. 27, 28, 29, 30, M-30? Yeah. (Don't you see M--M-30... got it?) 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35? (How many...?... Fifteen? Is that just fifteen? I believe that'd be about enough.)
Now, the prayer cards are given out twice a day, given out once in the afternoon at three o'clock (between two-thirty, I guess, and three), and the next is give out between six and seven in the evening. Come for your prayer card at one of those times.
