<TITLE>08. Par 18-21</TITLE>L-18 And her husband said, "Why, he hasn't passed by here. He goes up at the new moon and up in the Sabbath worship. He goes up there, but it's neither new moon nor Sabbath. So he won't be there."
She said, "All is well."
Why? How could she base such a thought as that? Because something down here in her heart told her, "Get to the man of God." Do you see it?
Now, she knowed there was a God that ruled the universe. She knowed that the God Who made the sun to shine, the wheat to grow, the tree, brought life. And she knowed that God had a representative here on earth. And that representative was--was the prophet. And she knowed if she could ever get to the prophet, not that she... I don't think that she had an idea that the son would be raised. But she thought if she got to the prophet that she would be able to understand why God took her child.

L-19 And now, people just don't realize what God can do through His servant. That's the reason today that people can't get so much done is because they've lost faith in the servants of God. That's right. Part of it is the servant's fault. He tried to tell you God way back years ago, but God is still God here on earth, using His servants just like He always did. He doesn't fail; He's the same God. All ages, in every age, He's had somebody to put His hands on. And we must expect God to do something through His servants. Amen.
"Oh," she said, "all will be well. Let everything alone." I like that. Something settled down in her heart, that if she ever got to Elisha, she would find out just exactly why the baby had died, 'cause she knew he was God's servant.
So they saddled the mule. And I like this commission she gave to the servant. She said, "You go forward; don't you stop, or slack, or anything, until I bid you."

L-20 I think this. The Church ought to have a commission like that. Go forward; don't you stop; just keep moving on. When this revival closes, start another one somewhere. Don't wait; don't wait around; just keep moving for God. Just keep moving on 'cause people are dying. Every day, somewhere over a maybe a hundred thousand people die every day in the world. I believe a hundred and twenty-five thousand it is, dies every day in the world. And about a hundred thousand of those died without knowing Christ. We ain't got no time to hang around. We got to go forward and don't slack a bit.

L-21 Not this revival... You're having a good time and seeing souls saved, just keep on moving, don't slack at all. And the preachers, don't wait till Oral Roberts comes, or William Branham, or-or somebody else. Practice Divine healing in your church. Let's go forward, people are dying. Let's get them to the Man of God which is Christ. Don't wait for some special event, go now. You're God's servant, just as much as anybody else is. You're call, you Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian. If you've got a commission from God, the general orders is, "Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. Lay hands on the sick; they shall recover. These signs will follow them that believe." If you got a commission from God, you got a ordination from God to do these things. Amen.
Who has? You say, "Oh, Jesus can do them."
He said, "You can do them. In My Name, I won't... they shall..." Amen. You got the cart before the horse. See? All right.
"In My Name 'they' shall cast out devils. 'They' shall lay their hands on the sick." Is that right? "They shall lay 'their' hands on the sick, and 'they' shall recover." That's the commission. Let's take it and go. We're too slack about these things today.
