<TITLE>18. Par 59-62</TITLE>L-59 And I can see him then, as he said, "Well, go ahead. The Lord be with you."
He reached down there and hunted him out more of God, and got him five little rocks, and he put them in his little scrip bag. He put one down in his sling and walked out there to meet Goliath. And Goliath looked at him and said, "Am I dog?" Why, he cursed him in the name of his god. He said, "I will take you. You little weasely looking, holy-roller, you, and stick this spear in you, and hang you up yonder, and let the birds eat on you for awhile." Yes, sir.

L-60 You say, "David wasn't a holy-roller." Yes, he was, what you call a holy-roller.
When the ark of the Lord begin to come in, he went out and danced before the ark just as hard as he could; and his wife made fun of him, said, "You don't like that. Watch this." And down and around and around and around and around the ark he went again. If that ain't another holy-roller, I never seen one in my life. There you are.
Someone said, "Brother Branham you got some of that there new kind of religion, haven't you?"
I said, "No, I got a good dose of the old kind." Amen.
Said, "...?... I mean that shouting religion."
I said, "That's the oldest religion that's ever known." I said, God asked Job, "Where was you when I laid the foundation of the world, when the morning stars sang together, and the sons of God shouted for joy, ten thousand years before the world was ever formed." Amen. You going to call me holy-roller anyhow. So you might as well get ready, get used to it. Notice, brothers...

L-61 Let me tell you something. David knew, and he got that old slingshot wrapped up. He went out, and he said, "You meet me as a Philistine, in the name of a Philistine, with an armor and with a spear, but I meet you in the Name of the Lord God of Israel and the very army that you defied." And said, "This day I will give your carcass to the birds and the animals of the field." And I took all the flesh of these Philistines... And all the--and the old guy started after him.
Now, I look at David, when he ran over to this little brook, crossed over to meet him. And when he did, what did he have in his hand? Here's what David had. He had five rocks, F-A-I-T-H, in five fingers wrapped around J-E-S-U-S; here he come: Five rocks and five fingers, faith in the Lord Jesus. And that rock went straight to the skull of that old giant, and David downed him, and cut his head off. And when he did, he looked around; and all the rest of them seen what was done; they took courage and drew their swords and begin to fight Philistines to the wall, cut them down.

L-62 Here a few years ago when I first started, there wasn't hardly anybody preaching on Divine healing. When they seen Congressmen Upshaw and many of them healed, I tell you Presbyterians, and Methodists, and Assemblies of God, and all of them, they got them one, and others got them one, and the Church of God got them. Oral Roberts and the other one got somebody else, and brother we've be cutting Philistines from right to the left. Hallelujah. Because every hearts taking courage tonight, and the half has never yet been told. Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, has promised. What is it in your hand tonight? Whatever you got, use it for the glory of God.
I can see a fellow down there by the name of Samson. He got out there one day, and the Philistines had done a little harm over there, tied some foxes tails together, and burnt up all their corn. So those Israelites come and got him, said, "We got to deliver you up to the Philistines."
And they took him over there, and tied him with some vines, and brought him down there. And the Philistines was going to mistreat him, and when he did, the Spirit of the Lord come on him. Amen. That's what made the difference. When he felt the Spirit of the Lord come on him, he didn't have nothing in his hand. And he looked down and there laid the jawbone of a mule. And he picked up that jawbone in his hand and killed a thousand Philistines. Amen. That's all he had.
