<TITLE>08. Par 23-25</TITLE>L-23 We find out then, that he fled into the land of Midian. And there he married a Ethiopian girl by the name of Zipporah. Moses in the beginning had a real high temper. We know that. God had to take it out of him. So then we... He married this girl and he become a servant to his father-in-law, herding the sheep back out the back side of the desert.
One day, I can just imagine, seeing this old man now of eighty years old. He had two children born to him up there and... Here he comes down now herding the sheep, just a sheepherder, a man out--got out of the will of God, and murdered a man, and back over there now as a sheepherder.
But if God has foreordained anything, it's just as sure to come to pass as God is in heaven. So it's going to be anyhow. There's nothing in the world can stop Jesus Christ from coming the second time. God has ordained it to be so. There's not a way in the world that you'd ever stop the message of Divine healing. You could fight it as much as you want to, but God's ordained that it should go forth, and it's going forth. That's right. No matter, somebody... God's able to these stones to rise children unto Abraham. So the best thing to do is join up with God's program and march on with the church, is the best thing I know to do.

L-24 Here some time ago, I was up in the Statue of Liberty and went out that arm. And looking out there of that window, seeing a bunch of little sparrows that was dead, laying all around all over the outside there. And I said to the guide, I said, "Say, what's the matter? Those little sparrows are--are dead?"
He said, "Sir, there was a storm last night, and those little fellows circling around and got into the light of this Statue of Liberty here. And instead of following the light to safety they come and beat their little brains out, trying to beat the light out." The only thing that could help them, they was trying to beat it out and kill themselves in effort.
I said, "Praise God. There may be infidels raised in common whatevermore, skeptics, and unbelievers, but more you beat the light out, try to beat the light of God, you'll just beat yourself to death and fall down in disgrace, and the light of God will shine on through the ages." That's right. God will move on in spite of anything anybody can could do. The best thing to do is join right up with Him and move right on with the--with the flow of the Holy Spirit.

L-25 And Moses when he was back out there on the back side of the desert, one day, I imagine kindly discouraged, walking along, thinking about what had taken place down in Egypt, and all his friends. And here he was married into another race of people, and herding his father-in-law's sheep. He happened to look over there, and he saw a bush on fire. And he thought it was funny that the bush never burned, so God was trying to attract Moses' attention.
And how do I know, what do you know, but what this meeting out here has been to--God has set it out here to attract the attention of some of you people that's living in these churches around here, without knowing that God raised from the dead, and Jesus is alive here tonight healing the sick and the afflicted. Maybe He brought you out here to see these lame, and crippled, and twisted people rise up out of their wheelchairs and walk away. To see His spirit move through the audience and correct people and rebuke sinners here at the platform, saintly, godly looking people. Come and tell them where that they're sinning and the things are. And every word of it's infallibly the truth. How do you know that God hasn't attracted your attention to come and look at something like, that so that you would turn aside also. Not turn from your church, but turn from your old living and serve the living God in the new birth, and be borned again. Maybe God's doing that.
