<TITLE>04. Par 14-18</TITLE>L-14 Now, if we could throw ourself completely to God and to His will and be lost to our own thoughts, and just let the mind of Christ be in us, them same operations of the Spirit would work through us just as the natural things does, just the same thing. Because we were first created for that pur--purpose to control, to rule, and to praise God and to live for God.
Now, Jesus said, "If ye abide in Me and My Words abide in you, you can ask what you will and it shall be given unto you. If ye abide in Me and My Word abide in you..."
Now, the Father and His Word is inseparable, 'cause the Word is His Son. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us." God and His Word is inseparable. You cannot have God without having His Word, and when you have His Word, you have God.

L-15 If you want to go back a little farther, just as far as historical, you could see the Word. In the beginning was the Word. But what is the Word? A word is a thought manifested, a thought spoken forth. God, first He perceived the thought and spoke it, and it meant--became a word, and the word became material.
So everything that God has spoke in His Word, received into the right channel will materialize that Word for whatever the promise behind it is. God will do it. He's obligated to it.
Then, "If ye abide in Me, and My Word abide in you..." Then you have God, the Word in you. And you believe the Word just as you believe God because It is God, and It's inseparable. Then if you have God's Word in you, you have God's Life in you. You have God in you. And whatever God's Word speaks forth out of you, It'll have to come to pass just like it was spoke from God.

L-16 Jesus said, "Whatever you ask the Father in My Name, that will I do." Did you ever realize what that means? Do you realize if we go before God in the Name of Jesus, it's just the same as Jesus Himself praying? It isn't me praying any more. If I come in His Name, and He recognizes His Name, and Jesus said, "Whatever you ask the Father in My Name, that I do." And then I go to the Father in Jesus' Name, it isn't me praying any more; it's Jesus. It's His Spirit praying through me.
And then I've got to receive what I ask for, because He said it, and it's God's Own Word. It can't--It can't do nothing else but produce just what it said.

L-17 So then we believe that we are... This is the confidence we have in God that we get what we ask for, for He's God, and cannot take back His Word. He's got to stay with His Word.
So then, "If ye abide in Me and My Words abide in you, ask what you will, and it'll be given unto you." Isn't that simple? Faith created. We was made for that purpose. Then through the fall, why, we was taken away from that, and then in redemption we was brought back to it again.
And the only thing that hindered the human race today from being superior and controlling like they did in the beginning is because that the power lines of the outlet of God made in the human being has been clogged up.

L-18 Sometimes... I say this reverently. Sometimes theology and church doctrines have clogged up your faith line. Clogged up your lines till you have been taught that those things can't be, and that puts a block in the way.
Could you imagine this building here being energized tonight for light by the electricity? Electricity is an unseen force. When its harnessed and brought on, when Benjamin Franklin first found it, he screamed, "I've got it." He didn't know what he had. He had something.
But along come Edison and put it to work. And today we can send a wireless telegram from right this place here, to anywhere around the world by a wireless telegram, an unseen force moves it through space that no man can catch it; only machinery can catch it because it's too fast for the eye. But yet there's a force that there's telegrams coming right through here now.
