<TITLE>02. Par 6-8</TITLE>L-6 So I... One day, Wilmer Snyder, a friend of mine (We went to school together.), come up to me, he said, "Billy, I want to tell you something."
Said, "All right Wilmer,"
He said, "I wished you'd just quit that nonsense." He said, "There's no need of you feeling that way. You need an insurance policy.
I said, "I got it."
He said, "Oh, you're insured?"
I said, "Yeah." My wife looked at me as if to say, "Say, what's went wrong with you? You're telling a story otherwise." She said, "What's..."
"What?"
I said, "Yeah, I'm insured."
Said, "Why, Billy what insurance do you have?"
I said, "Blessed Assurance, Jesus is mine. Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine. Heir of salvation, purchase of God. Borned of His Spirit, washed in His Blood."
"Oh," he said, "that's good, Billy, but that won't put you in a graveyard."
I said, "But it'd get me out."
I'm not so worried about getting there; the thing's getting out. That's the one brings me out. And the good thing about it, it's paid for. And so the price is already paid at Calvary. They're given to whosoever will receive them.

L-7 And now, in the--this life field of battle, let's keep our heads towards Calvary, our eyes looking straight to He Who died and paid the supreme price for our salvation at Calvary, and by His stripes we were healed. And we believe Him tonight, with all of our heart. And I hope to come back. And thank you for that welcome of coming back. I--I know you meant it, and you--you love me, and I love you.
It seems to be the Holy Spirit's just getting right on to me about praying for the sick now, so I'm going to settle right down. I know it's just that strategic time.
I've never come to Shreveport and had a real healing service. That's right. 'Cause I come and preach. And every... When I come sometime for a healing service, let somebody else do the preaching; let me stay right under the cross all day long, and can watch the difference in it, (See?) when you come in. But here, after leaving the room and coming here and speaking awhile... And sometimes I talk too long, and then I kinda lose the effects of it, then I... It's something that, it's anointing.

L-8 And now, on this new vision that the Lord gave me, of the vision that's printed in the "Herald of His Coming"--or the "Herald of Faith," and I think also, "The Herald of His Coming"; it was sent to them. "Herald of Faith" comes out of Chicago, Brother Mattsson Boze's paper, a wonderful little paper. It's got an article in there this month. You get a roll of them, Brother...? Wish you'd read that article. You know he had a lot of write-ups, and so forth, but there was a Lutheran preacher gave me one of my favorite write-ups. And I--I certainly liked it. And Brother Joseph Boze reprinted it; it's in this month's issue.
And in reading the vision, you notice how that the Holy Spirit had showed something else is just fixing to happen. And in these kind of healing services that I'm having now, until I get into the tent, I'm just like a child with Christmas anticipations; I can hardly wait till I get in there. This way, I can only stand so long, because it's your faith that does it. It's not me operating that gift of God; it's your faith a doing it. See? Not me, it's you.
