<TITLE>13. Par 19-21</TITLE>L-19 How happy we should be this morning then, every person in here getting ready for your healing. Sure. "How am I going to do it? I don't know, but God prepared it for me. I'm coming to get it. That's all. I'm going to be just exactly what He said to do, and I'm going to receive it." See? For it's God's provided way of doing it. He makes the preparation.
Now, Noah went out there and begin to build a way on an ark: God's goodness to him. He said, "I know there's fixing to come some trouble. And all that's not in this ark is going to drown, so you get ready, and get in this ark, and get your family in there. Tell everybody. Everybody's welcome to come, but I'm sure they won't do it. But you just--you just make--make preparation for them anyhow. Here's the ark. Now, you make this ark, and everybody that wants to come in can come in and be saved."

L-20 So Noah went away building away, like you are today, building away on your testimony. You're building a spiritual ark for the saving of your own soul, for your testimony, and for God's glory.
Now, they're building away on the ark, and people come by and laugh and made fun of him. And they say, "Hey, did you hear about that fellow saying there's going to be some water come down? Where's it going to come from? Why, there can't be no water up there. Look. Can you see any water; it's just a blue as it can be. Oh, we've lived here all these years; there's never been no water. How could it come; there's no water up there. And this fellow says the whole earth's going to be covered with water. Well, that man must be just a little bit funny up here. There's something wrong in his head."
But why did he do it? Why did he make preparations to meet God's preparations? God was going to prepare to destroy the enemies of the world, and Noah had to build a way to prepare something to ride through it.
And that's the way it is today. God has made a way to destroy that cancer. God's made a way to take the blindness out of them eyes. God has made a way. And what are we trying to do with this Word this morning? Is build something for you to ride through on to your victory. God's Word, THUS SAITH THE LORD... See? Ride through on His Word. God said so.
After a while, when God got ready for it to happen, the rain was up there. And when God gets ready for it to happen, it'll always be there. See? God makes His way after He has made a preparation.

L-21 All right. He did this same thing... He was going to glorify Himself in the Hebrew children. He made a preparation. When did He make it? The Hebrew children didn't have any promise. They couldn't get back here and read in the Bible, and say, "Lord, You promised in Your Word that any of Your children ever went into a fiery furnace, You would deliver them. All right, Lord, we're coming right there upon that."
Well, that wouldn't have been so hard to do, just their faith, because God had already promised it. But God hadn't promised them no such a thing. But here's the words they had. God was so real to them, they said, "Our God is able." How about that, the fellow that don't believe in Divine healing?
