<TITLE>01. Par 1-5</TITLE>54-0825, We Have Found Him, St. Nicholas Arena, New York, NY, 42 min
L-1 Thank you, friends, and maybe we'll just stand just for a moment. Our kind heavenly Father, we thank Thee tonight, for the privilege that we have of coming before Thy beloved children to pray one for the other, as Thou has commissioned us to do so. We thank Thee for these people that's here tonight. And may Thy blessings rest upon each one.
And now, in spite of the heat and the great wave that we're having through the city, we are thankful that the people are coming out to hear this glorious old Gospel. Never gets old, it will remain in the ages that is to come. We expect to hear It in glory, how Jesus died for the sinner, and healed the sick at His death, resurrected for our justification, and has ascended up on high, and sent gifts back to man to manifest His love to the world.

L-2 We thank Thee for these Gospel truths. We thank Thee for men in the world today with fearless hearts who goes and proclaim the full Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, suffering persecution, criticism, or whatever it may be; nothing stops them. Their vision goes on, for it comes from Calvary. And we thank Thee for this.
And now, hide us tonight, Father. We pray that You'll... If there's any lost, save them; any a little indifferent, bring them back to a full knowledge. And if there's any sick, Lord, heal every one. Get glory out of the service as we commit ourselves to Thee. In Jesus' Name we ask it. Amen. You can be seated.

L-3 God be merciful to the needy tonight. I have told Brother Baxter, our--my manager, that in... time the heat is so great, and after he's already spoken once, there's no need of me speaking any more, start the prayer line, start praying for the sick.
I do appreciate you people coming out in these hot rooms. Just a bit nervous tonight. I've tried to swing my meetings one way or the other so I could get more through the line and things, and you get used to this way in a regular routine, a different spirit and so forth, and it makes you a little upset when you try to change your program. So I'm going to start the prayer line just in a few moments.

L-4 And whatever Brother Baxter's told you tonight, I don't knows. I never know what the brother speaks on, or what takes place. My boy comes over here around about six o'clock, and seven, or whatever it is, and gives out prayer cards. He's in one room and I'm in another place where we stay.
Then some man come last night and got me from somewhere. And tonight another man come and got me. They bring me over here; I enter into the door about five minutes before. Then they notify Mr. Baxter that I'm here. They sing "Only Believe," and--and I come up in the room, just come, start praying for the sick.
Now, it's to my interest that Jesus Christ is glorified. And that's what I'm here for tonight, is to try in my humble way... I only wish I could preach like some of these ministers, like Brother Baxter, Oral Roberts, Billy Graham, some of those outstand--Jack Shuler, some of those man like that who are really ministers who preach the Gospel.

L-5 How easy it would be for me to go and preach the Gospel sermon, go home, go to bed and forget it. That isn't it. I got a challenge of every demon that's present, to stand before. I got critics that's setting waiting to say one word they know I'd say wrong, they'd lang right on that--hang right on to it. And there it would go. Have to be careful.
Therefore coming under the anointing a few hours before service I pray, ask God to help me. I stay in the room till I feel His Presence. Coming over, no one speaks a word to me. Never a word spoke, unless it's, "Good evening," or something, till we enter the building, then next call is up here, 'cause I don't like to talk to people. If you do, if visions are starting and starts talking to the people... Then I--I... It just weakens me down.
