<TITLE>15. Par 51-53</TITLE>L-51 Oh, you think I'm a little crazy, don't you? But I sure feel good this a way. Just let me alone. See? How wonderful. Good. Some glorious day the last enemy I have, which is death, will be tramped right under the feet, as with the Conqueror, we shall march through the City.
Today while the harvest is on, let's go about gathering in the sheaves everywhere. Whatever God's give you to do, if you're a little housewife, testify to the neighbors something. Do something; bring somebody with you when you come.
Must I be carried home to heaven on a flower bed of ease,
While others fought to win the prize, and sail through bloody seas?
No, I must fight if I must reign; increase my courage, Lord.
That's my prayer.
Tell me not in mournful numbers,
Life is just an empty dream!
And the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem,
Yea, life is real! And life is earnest!
And the grave is not it's goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul. (That's right.)
Lives of great men all remind us
And we can make our lives sublime,
With partings, leave behind us,
Footprints on the sands of time;
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing over life's solemn main,
For a forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.

L-52 Oh, my. How wonderful. How God enters poetry, how He enters songs, how He enters praise, how He enters worship. Yes, some glorious day, Jehovah-jireh... How's He going to do it? He will do it, don't you worry. How's He going to rapture the Church? That's up to Him, I just believe He will do it; that's all. And He will do it, because He said so.
Let's speak to Him, just now, while our hearts are strangely warm by His Presence.
Our heavenly Father, we bow in humble worship to express to You the very adorations of our heart. Oh, how we are elated tonight, Lord, to feel Your blessings moving in our mortal beings. Expecting in a few moments to see the--the vital, the real Presence of Jesus Christ moving among the people, giving them faith, and seeing great signs and wonders take place.

L-53 We thank Thee for all Thou has done. And, Father, they may be some dead in sin and trespasses setting here tonight, that doesn't know Thee, has never knowed that You would provide for them. They can't come within themselves, Father. And You'll knock at the door. You'll knock many times; but sometime You'll knock Your last time, for You said, "My Spirit will not always strive with man, seeing that he's flesh."
So I pray tonight, Father, that You'll wake up somebody to the knowledge, to know, that unless they're borned of the Spirit of God, has received, and then become Abraham's seed, that they'll never be able to make the rapture. So I pray, Father, that You'll give rapturing grace tonight, and also for the sick.
