<TITLE>14. Par 54-57</TITLE>L-54 A ladder has two ends to it. Amen. One's anchored in God; the other one's anchored in Christ. And we're caught between it with a great host of Angels bringing forth ministering spirits, supernatural gifts and things, vindicating we're on our road, marching up. Well, sure, them people can't believe it; look where they're at. They're down yonder in the soft sinking sands like Holland's marshy mud puddles over there.
I always felt sorry for the Hollanders down there; they had to pour out pilings and great big timbers and drive down everything to build their houses on. 'Cause it's so muddy and marshy and soft. And then the old house looks teeter-tottery this way. Nearly all the Holland houses does, because it's built upon muddy ground. It's upon sinking sand.

L-55 And I stand in Mexico City where the other day, where great buildings, great sky scrapers, leaning way back several feet. She's sinking several inches a year. She's a sinking. But oh, brother, this foundation of this great Holy Ghost road that we're traveling tonight, Jacob's ladder, is hooked onto the Throne of God, and the heart of Jesus Christ and we're in-between it. Hallelujah. Signs and wonders... God's making a way for those who believe, showing His signs and wonders. Hallelujah. Do you believe it? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Have faith in God. Don't disbelieve it. Let us pray.

L-56 Heavenly Father, I don't know why You did this, but seemingly, the Holy Spirit stopped me immediately and ask that I stop speaking for something else. I don't know what You want me to do Lord; here I stand. But one thing, I'm so thankful, Lord, I--I know You. I'm so glad that I can feel and tell when Your Spirit's a moving and know that You're fixing to do something right now. I--I'm so glad of that.
And I pray, God, that You'll forgive me my sins and trespasses. Forgive this audience of their sins and trespasses. And O God, we open up our heart, as we realize we're God's promised children. Not nothing that we've done, by grace alone are we saved. O God, how could we ever receive the Holy Ghost? How could You ever poured it in this oil, except You ordained it to be so. We were alienated from God without hope, without promise, without anything. We're in the world; we're without God, without Christ, dying, going to a sinner's hell. Oh, we just thank You, that Your amazing grace selected us, and picked us up, and give us these great things and set us upon this ladder, and opened up our eyes, Lord, that we know that we're setting tonight in the host of a great company of Angels, O God, that we're marching on up towards Zion.

L-57 It can't slip, we can't fall. O God, the world thinks we're crazy, we're walking in space. But we're held, lifted up. Like the eagle, Lord, we've been caught away in a rapture of faith and glory. And the Angels of God are with us to minister spiritual blessings to us, and to help us along the road, and encourage us as we see the hill of Zion yonder in sight.
We pray, dear heavenly Father, that You'll bless this audience tonight. Bless this Word tonight and save every sinner and forgive every backslider. And let the Angels of God go down to that poor lost backslider tonight, pick him up that's on the road. Go out yonder in the sinking sands of sin and bring that poor fellow there that You've been speaking to so much, for so long a time. Bring him over, and clean him up with the Blood of the Lord Jesus, and set him upon the ladder, that Angels will minister to him and take him back and forth, up-and-down the ladder, Lord, as we're moving on towards glory. Grant it, Father. Heal all the sick and afflicted tonight. Get glory out of the service. We ask in Jesus' Name.
