<TITLE>09. Par 32-34</TITLE>L-32 Moses went forward, packing a stick. And we find out the Red Sea opened, 'cause a mighty wind followed that Fire, the Light of God. When man walks in the Light, then the winds follow. Jesus said, "Tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem until you're endued with power from on high." And they waited until there come from heaven a sound of a rushing mighty wind. They walked in Light, till the wind begin to blow. Amen. Just step in the Light tonight, you outside of Christ; the winds will come back again like they was on the day of Pentecost. Just keep walking in the Light; it'll separate the thing that was hindering you from one side to the other.
Notice, the children of Israel walked across the Red Sea, not only in the mud, they were on dry ground--walking light. That's the trouble with the church today: You're so loaded down you can't walk light. Got too many things on you, too much hanging around. Paul said, "Let us lay aside every weight (that we might walk light)--every weight, and the sin doth easily beset us, that we might run with patience the race that's set before us, looking to the Author and Finisher," Christ.

L-33 Walk in the light, light footed. Do you ever walk when you go down the street singing,
Fill my way every day with love,
As I walk with the heavenly Dove;
Let me go all the while, with a song and a smile,
Fill my way every day with love.
Did you ever walk like that? Light-footed? Why, I remember the night I was back in the--when I first got saved, went back in a little old shed. I did--never did pray in my life. And I was going to write Jesus a letter and tack it on a tree, so out in the woods so He could find it. I didn't know how to pray. I thought He'd pass by that tree sometime and let Him--let me tell Him in that letter what a dirty guy I was, how low down, how unworthy. I thought, "If He's a Man, He'd talk like a man." So I didn't know how to talk, and I knelt down on an old grass sack in an old wet shed, and I begin to...?... my finger, I said, "Mr. Jesus, will You come here just a minute, I want to talk to You."
But He come. That's the main thing. I think if we'd quit rhyming our prayers today, and trying to tease somebody's ears, and pray from the depths of our heart, like an old fashion sinner ought to repent, then God will hear us. Amen. Too much of this put on, Pharisee. I told you the other day a "Pharisee" means "a actor." Too many Pharisees. Quit putting on. I don't like that stuff, put on. Be what you are; be original. God knows what you are anyhow. You're only acting before somebody else; He knows what you are original.

L-34 Notice, they were light footed. I remember when the Lord forgive me, it felt like a million pounds went off of my back, and I never even touched the step going towards the house. I didn't know nothing about shouting. Wish I could have that experience again right now. I'd make up for that time. I was--I knowed something had happened. And I went in, grabbed my song book, mother said, "What's the matter?"
I said, "I don't know." I grabbed my Bible. I couldn't read; I was too nervous, happy.
She said, "Well, what's the matter?"
"I don't know." I slipped out the door and went down--there's a big railroad track around behind our place. I run down the railroad track and jump up in the air, just as hard as I could trying to give vent to the feeling. Oh, my. What a time.
That's for every man tonight, and woman, who's never experienced it, Christ Jesus, the freedom of forgiven sin, walking light footed. Hallelujah. Don't get scared of "Hallelujah," it means "praise our God," you know. He's worthy of all the praises that you can give Him.
