<TITLE>11. Par 31-33</TITLE>L-31 Now, Jairus, wanted Him to lay hands on. Said, "Come, lay Your hands on my daughter, and she'll get well."
Jesus said, "I'll go." And He started on down there, because He knowed if the man's faith, whether he had vision or not... Jesus had done said that He did nothing till the Father showed Him. Perhaps there's no vision of it; but yet He knew the man's faith was sufficient to do the work. The woman that touched Him back there, He never said, "I healed you"; He said, "Thy faith has saved thee."
And he put His fingers... Two blind men followed Him one day in the street. Said, "Lord, have mercy on us." He had no vision about those men. So He went on and left them alone. They cried after Him till He went into a house. The came into the house and said, "Have mercy on us, Lord."
Now, watch. He touched their eyes and said, "Now, according to your faith, be it unto you." See? And they had it; their eyes come open. See? "According to your faith..."
But now what He did Himself, was what the Father showed Him to do. But He touched their eyes; they touched His garments, and they done everything like that. That was their own faith; "Thy faith has saved thee."

L-32 So here comes the man now. A--Jesus a going with little Jairus to his--to his daughter's sick. Now, they're going along. I can see Jairus walking along now, all the priests looking at him, saying, "Ah, so that's what you choose. Yeah, this is it." Walking right along... He'd got close to Jesus; he'd had a change of heart. And every man that really gets close to Jesus can never be the same any more. No, sir. You can't associate with that old dry formal religions any more. You've got something in you that changes you and makes you different, if you ever come close. Now, you can go close to the church and do anything, but you can't come close to Jesus and be the same any more.

L-33 So Jairus walking right along, his little chest throwed out (You know.), like that. "Yes, sir, I'm glad to be walking by Him. Yes, sir. This is my--my... This is my salvation now. Yes, sir."
Then the great stroke come. Here come a man with ashes on his head as the oriental type of mourning, and said, "Don't trouble Him any more. Your daughter is already dead." That was the midnight blow. I can see little Jairus as the tears come in his eyes and his little heart begin to quiver.
He looked around. I can see Jesus with those sacred eyes, look and said, "Fear not. Only believe." That's enough.
He pressed a little smile across his lips and he started on. "Yeah, I--I know what He says. He's anointed God; I--I know what He says is all right, so..." He's going on... He knew it'd be all right. See? He knew something... All right.
When they got to the house, here they was screaming and going on out in the yard, "Oh, she's dead, she's gone. We've embalmed her body. She's laying on the couch and she's dead. And she's dead, the poor little thing."
Jesus started going in, all that carrying on like that, He said, "Give peace. Keep still a little bit." He said, "The girl's not dead; she's only asleep." And they laughed at Him. You know what He done? When they laughed at God's Word, He put them out. That's a good thing to do. Don't you believe that? That's right. He put them out.
