<TITLE>08. Par 23-27</TITLE>L-23 Moses no matter how great the army was, how Pharaoh's army looked. Didn't mean nothing to Moses. When he met God up there, he knowed God's Word. He was instructed in the Word of God and when he... God met him with that Angel up there in the burning bush.
Could you imagine an old man out there on the side of a hillside with--on a burning bush, burning, and he stepped aside to see it... What if he--what if he'd went over, and just for curiosity, like some people comes to meetings, just for curiosity. Say, "I'm going to pull some of the leaves off and take it down to the laboratory to have it tested, and see why these leaves don't burn. The fires all over them and when the fire goes off, I will see what chemical was in them."
You'll never get anything... They's only one way you'll ever know anything about God. That's by faith you receive it. You believe it because God said so. And when I was... explain makes nothing about it. You believe it.

L-24 And Moses, after seeing that Angel seeing God's glory... Did you notice Moses wanted to see God's glory before he went? And God showed him His glory. What was it? Divine healing: put his hand in his bosom turned to leprosy and taken it out, put his hand back and healed it again. So Divine healing is God's glory.
So Moses when he seen that and knowed the Angel, the Pillar of Fire was with him, I tell you; he went home and got Zipporah, his wife, and set his two children and her on a mule, and here he went to Egypt.

L-25 Now, you talk about a ridiculous sight. Look at this some of you Georgia people. There was Pharaoh's army to... The opposition of Russia today would be nothing to compare with the world power it had then: Pharaoh's army, the mechanized units, the thousands of chariots, the spearmen, the horsemen. They had all the world beat to defeat.
And here goes an old man, eighty years old, whiskers hanging down to his waistline with a crooked stick in his hand (it dry as a bone), with his wife setting straddle of a mule, with a child on each hip, glorifying God.
Some of them say, "Moses, where you going?"
"Going down to Egypt to take over."
Could you imagine that? Look what science would say about that, but the good part about it: he did it (Amen.), because God had promised it. And God's Word will never fail. He went down and took over. Opposition means nothing when God has spoken. No matter how bad you're sick, how--how bad you're crippled, opposition is nothing to when God speaks. His Word's eternal and forever true.
He did it. It was a ridiculous looking sight, but he went down and done it, because he had faith. God had promised it, and he knowed it laid in the realms of God, and he went and done it because God was with him. Certainly.

L-26 Now, in the same time when the sons of men had got back in trouble again, God sent His promise again: His Son, the Lord Jesus. When He came, misunderstood... All the teachers of that day had it all just so fixed out, that they knowed what the Messiah was going to be. When He come they had it just fixed the way it had to be, and you know what? When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea, the priests was in arguing what kind of buttons they ought to wear on their clothes. That's right, and He was borned out there on the hillside, and He never visit one of them.
The Angels of God came and sang to shepherds. That's right. It's the Magis, stargazers over in the east, come following a mysterious star or a light that led them to the Christ.

L-27 When He was here on earth, the devils knowed more about Him than the preachers. That's right. The devils... The preachers said, "This man's Beelzebub. He reads minds. He's--He's the wickedest of all the fortunetellers. He's a smart fellow. I tell you. He's a mind reader. He's Beelzebub, the chief of all the fortunetellers." That spirit never did die.
Notice. But the devil said, "I know Who You are. You're the Son of God, the holy One of God." The devil was right.
