<TITLE>07. Par -</TITLE>L-9-3 Now, let me try with, as a brother to explain this, how He knew her. Because when anyone has done that... I can say from the meetings here, from the operation of the Holy Spirit, when anyone has been blessed, it just seems like it's just something pulling you like that (See?), and you get to the person. And then just above the person, you see them, and what's happened to them, and what's wrong with them; and then you look, and you see it's the same person. And it's just like a--an avenue or a channel that's working between you and the person. That's how I think... (He never explained it.) That's how I think that He knew it, because the Holy Spirit, working in similar way... That's the way that's understood.

L-10-1 Say like, sometimes you say, "The lady setting there that's got a green hat on," or something like that, "you have been suffering with so-and-so. You come from a certain place." You're listening to that. See, you're right in the vision, watching what's taking place; and then maybe you see her spring back, and it's light around her and everything, why, then you say, "Why, she's healed. It's THUS SAITH THE LORD." See? The Lord, Who's showing the vision, is just... Your faith in Him is using me as a mouthpiece to say to you what you desire Him to tell you. See what I mean?

L-10-2 Now, but when it's the other... Now, that is just permissive way of God working. I say this reverently: the hour is close at hand when I--after I tell you what the vision of the Lord has showed me, that this will finally move back, giving place to something far beyond it. And that's what I want to get to this afternoon.

L-10-3 Now, the person doing that will--will--if they'll believe it, they'll be blessed, and they'll get well. Now, not that they were healed, but their faith touched God and accepted their healing that's already been appropriated for them nineteen hundred years ago. See? It's not that that had anything to do with their healing; it was just a mouthpiece to speak.

L-10-4 How... Did any place in the Bible... We're not... I'm not comparing myself with a prophet. No, sir; no, I'm just a poor sinner saved by grace, but the gift that the Lord gave the prophets and made them prophets, is they were God's mouthpiece. They had the Word of the Lord, and no prophet ever did do anything just upon his own desire. He did it first, after God had told him. That's right. And that's the way the Son of God, when He came, which was the God of the prophets, He said, "I only do as the Father shows Me to do." That's right. It only has to come through Divine powers to reveal through flesh, and Christ was God's Mouthpiece on earth. Everybody understand that?

L-10-5 Now, for instance, sometimes I'll be at home. (Gene, Leo, and them, that I was talking about last night, setting down here; Brother Beeler and many of the rest of them, and the ones who know me...) At home I'll be walking through the house, not thinking of anything; maybe set down in the room, and there'll come a vision. And maybe it'll set perfectly still for quite a little while. And it'll say--He'll say, "Now, you are going to have a call in a few moments from the phone, and you're going in to this city. And when you go to this city, you'll go to a certain place. It'll be this a way. And you'll go into the room, and you'll lay your hat down, or the lady will lay your hat on the bed; but it isn't supposed to lay there. It's supposed to be lying over on the table, and another lady will come in this way." You'll see it all acted out just exactly the way it's supposed to be done; and if I fail in one of those things, it won't happen. It has to be just exactly to the moment and the time and everything positionally the same, for it's a vision. It has--it has to be perfectly materialized. And then when it does, it's got to happen. It's never failed.
