<TITLE>17. Par 71-75</TITLE>L-71 Is there one here tonight who is a Christian, who is a man or a person of God, but you've been dilatory in the way, you have not done as God has told you; you've been up-and-down; you've listened to things you should not have listened; you've done things that you ought not have done, and you want God to forgive you, and you want a new start from tonight on? You'll make your decision for God right now and say, "I'll do it." Will you raise your hands? God bless you. God bless you. You. You. You. Oh, that's fine. All right. Anybody else, put up your hand. I want you to raise your hand; that's you're making of God. God sees your hand. You say, "What good does that do?" Oh, raise your right hand one time to God and find out what it does.
Raise your right hand in the courts, swear a lie and see what happens to you; you'd be caught by it. Raise your hand to God and make an oath, and then, watch if the Holy Spirit don't catch you by it. God's at your heart's door; you make your decision. You're at Kadesh-Barnea. Down there lays every blessing that God promised you. Down there lays an old fashion revival. There lays joy, peace, long-suffering, goodness, gentleness, meekness, patience, laying before you, and you don't possess it; it's yours; God promised it to you. Do you want it?

L-72 Is there a family here about to be broke up? You argue and fuss with one another and you know you oughtn't to do it; you're ashamed the way you act around your wife or your husband, and you want God tonight by His grace, to give you grace to overcome, to put your arm around he or she and say, "Honey, by the grace of God from tonight on, our decision, I'll live for God." Raise your hand. Is there a family? Every one with your heads bowed now. Just raise your hand.
[Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] I'm so thankful that there's not, but if there is, God knows how to take care of all things.

L-73 Is there a person here tonight that's been sick for a long time. And maybe you, seem like, you've been prayed for, but you haven't faith to overcome. But right now, that you're going to make your decision, "Lord God, from this very hour I'm going to serve You. And I'm going out of here testifying to the grace of God, that by His stripes I am healed. And I'm going to believe it from this night on." God bless you, lady. God bless you, sir. God bless you. You. Wonderful. That's right. I'm going to pray for you in a few minutes, going to ask God to grant it to you.

L-74 I wonder tonight, if one of the persons that's not a Christian, would like to walk up to the altar and kneel down. The altar is open, if you'd like to pray an open prayer to God. The altar is open for the backslider or for the wayfaring man; whoever it might be, the altar is open. You're welcome. You're at Kadesh; the judgment is on. God is standing with out-stretched arms, ready.

L-75 A sick person would want to stand to their feet to make a public confession that they have now accepted Christ as their Healer, and say, "From this night on I'll believe God," and have a prayer for them. If you would, you're welcome to stand to your feet. All right, three of you are standing. Just remain standing if you will.
