<TITLE>05. Par 13-16</TITLE>L-13 A Jewish man, here not long ago, said to me, he said, "I can prove that Jesus was a--was a thief."
And I said, "How?"
He said, "He went through the cornfields on the Sabbath day and eat corn that didn't belong to Him, proving he was a thief."
I said, "You're trying to compare the order of that day with this day." I said, "He said He was the Lord of this--the harvest, and He was. And another thing," I said, "isn't it written in your law, that if a man comes through the field and he's hungry, he can eat what he wants to eat, but it's not lawful for him to pack anything away? So He was within the law." That's right, even to their own law. Oh, their hearts was just blinded so we could have a day of grace (That's all.), we Gentiles. And I'm so thankful for that and I'm sure you all are.

L-14 Now, the Son of God spent much time in prayer before the cross and a healing the people. Was just prior to our message tonight, He crossed all the way across the sea; went up on top of a mountain, one evening after breaking bread and feeding five thousand. I wonder where He got the atoms, or what atom He turned loose, rather, when He fed five thousand people with two little fishes and five loaves of bread--five little biscuits, and--some little child had. Not only was the fish fish, but it was cooked fish and cooked bread. He done something: no one knows yet. But He did it because He was the Lord of creation.
And there, upon the mountain, He stood and watched the disciples as they was crossing the sea. The little boat, tossed about, and was just about ready to sink, looked like. And they seen someone coming and here He come, walking on the sea. About...

L-15 That's the way He does; just about the time it gets the very darkest of hour, then Jesus comes along. We fret and worry, we Christians. And the baby gets sick, or something happens, or somebody don't show up, we're just so nervous and upset. We should just set quiet. He's the One Who commanded it. We're living under His dispensation, living under His grace. Just set still. He'll be along after while. Don't worry. He'll open up a healing service somewhere, or you'd be guided to somebody who prays for the sick when you got sickness. If not, He'll just put it upon your heart so bad, you'll just kneel down in the room and ask Him about it yourself. That's right. So just remember, He works all things together for good.

L-16 He got in the ship; the storm stopped. He crossed that stormy sea that night for the call of one needy soul. A maniac, up in Gadara, up there, was just so mean till he was just cutting hisself with rocks; and they'd bind him with chains and he'd break them. Now, that's the devil's power. Did you ever fool around somebody that was a maniac? If you ever seen somebody with double their power, it's a maniac; because they're completely anointed with Satan. And that Satanic power gives them twice their strength.
Now, if a person, completely surrendered to the devil will give him twice his strength, what will a man completely surrendered to God do? See? It'll make you so weak. Maybe you're crippled and can't stand up, but surrender yourself to God, and new life, a new strength comes in, and you go to walking away.
I seen little people when their little limbs wasn't hardly that big, grown men and women eat up with cancer, rise to the floor, that hadn't stood up for months, so weak they couldn't have stood up any--any other way but under the power of God. And get up and walk around through the house praising God and get well. What is it? Full surrendered to God. Amen. That's what it takes: a complete surrender.
