L-1 Mutual... Good evening, friends. I'm so happy to be here tonight in the Name of our Lord to serve the Lord Jesus and enjoy this marvelous fellowship with you people. I am very sure that you have appreciated Brother Bosworth's message. He is a very fine teacher. And I was so glad to have him to teach tonight.
Now, I will just speak a few moments. And just in order to kind of feel the spirit of the people. I'm sure you all understand what I mean. And then we'll start praying for the sick.
At this time, I wish to have some Scripture read: Saint Mark, the 10th chapter, 46th verse unto 52. The interpreter will read now.
[The interpreter reads the Scripture--Ed.]

L-2 Shall we bow our heads for prayer. Our heavenly Father, we thank Thee tonight for Thy great love to us. We are unworthy, but we come because we have been bidden to come. And we pray that You'll receive us tonight. Bless Thy Word; save Thy people; heal the sick; get glory out of the service. For we ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Now, just to speak to you a few moments about this blind man at Jericho... I wouldn't try to add to what Brother Bosworth has said. But I just want to speak to you for a few moments and then we'll start praying for the sick.
Before I speak, I would like for everyone to--to understand, that in healing now, that it isn't anything that I do that causes you to get well. It isn't necessary that I lay my hands on you. It isn't necessary that I pray for you. It's necessary that you believe Jesus Christ healed you when He died for you. Do you understand? Say, "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

L-3 My ministry is--is not to lay hands on people. It's to let the people see that Jesus has raised from the dead. And He's here, and He loves you. Now, Brother Bosworth, many other ministers, they preach the Word. And through the Word, you believe. And then when I was put in the world, I was given a gift. That gift brings the--brings God in view of everyone. So you can see, you understand, that something supernatural is moving with the people. Then you're not to--for me to pray for you then; it's for you to believe that He's here. You understand now, do you? It's your faith that touches Him. And that's when you're healed.

L-4 It is true, that when we join our faith together in prayer, why, it's--it's a great result. I have never in my life ever sincerely asked God for anything, that He either give it to me or told me why He couldn't give it to me. That's the truth. And I have been in the ministry twenty-three years. He's true; He's real. And if you'll ask Him sincerely, remember, He has promised to answer if you would believe Him. And when you see Him doing something supernatural, then you believe it. And look up with your heart, say, "I believe it, Lord. That means me." And then God will answer it. And then you're healed. And everybody can be healed at once.
See, if God could... Do you believe that God could save everybody in here tonight if--if they were sinners, and if everybody believed at one time? Jesus, at one time, would save every one of them. You believe that? Well, can't He heal the same way? Amen. It's a massive healing, there's where you see the glory come.
