<TITLE>17. Par 55-57</TITLE>L-55 Here he starts walking, walk on the waters, just as soon as he heard the Word. Faith cometh by hearing, hearing of the Word. See, Peter heard the Word. That's right.
Martha heard that Jesus was coming. She went to Him and got the resurrection of her brother. See? It's according to your faith. The priest that packed the ark. Faith for them was sticking their foot in the water; as soon as their foot hit the water, the sea--the Jordan opened up. Their faith was touch the water.
A blind man one time, the Word told him to wash in the pool of Siloam with spit over his eyes. Jesus spit in some ground and made a patty cake out of it, from spit.
What would the health authorities say about that in Shreveport today? Standing there talking to him and [Brother Branham makes spitting sound--Ed.] spit on the ground and kept talking to him [Brother Branham makes spitting sound] spit on the ground. Then when He got done, rubbed it up in His hands like that and put plaster over his eyes and said, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam and come see." Amen.
To find a pool of Divine...?... Hallelujah. To find the Holy Ghost is to find Life, find healing, find joy, find peace, find Christ tonight. Amen.

L-56 Where your faith lays; whatever you believe. It's according to your faith. Jairus' was, "Come, lay Your hands on my girl. She'll be all right. You just lay Your hands on her." Here He come. They was going on a little drive. His heart got settled down. Walked along side of Jesus with his head up. "Oh, I'm so glad I made my decision, Lord." Don't worry. Soon as you make your decision, the devil's going to give you a shock. Don't worry. He's the biggest bluff I know of, but he is only a bluff. Did you hear me? He's a bluff. That's all he is. He ain't got one legal power; Jesus Christ stripped him of every thing he had, on Calvary. The full sin penalty was paid at Calvary, and the devil has no legal rights at all. He's just a big bluff.
You say, "Well, my mother would turn me down. My daddy would... I--I don't care what the devil tells you. Jesus will receive you. You'll be happy and peaceful. Just a bluff...

L-57 So Jairus got to feeling pretty good after he'd met Jesus. Went walking along. Said, "I got a real hope now. My girl's going to be all right. Yep. He will go in there, and He will minister some way; and He will lay His hands on her, and first thing you know that girl will start getting better. She get all right. Yes, sir."
And make hisself believe that, pushing right along with the crowd, feeling pretty good. "Who's this coming?" Here comes a man as usually a--a message of sorrow they had ashes on their head or dirt, and they come running. Here he had... "Oh--oh--wonder what's happened up the street? Wonder what's taking place?" And here comes this runner.
Said, "Jairus, do you know me?"
"Yes."
"Trouble not the Master any more, Jairus."
"Oh, why--oh why, why? What's happened?"
"Your daughter's already dead. Don't trouble Him."
Oh, I can see him just go back down, but just as he starts to sink like Peter did in the boat, he turns his eyes to see what Jesus is going to say about it.
Why don't you see what He says about it? If you say, "Well, the world turn me down." See what He says about it. Doctor says, "I'm going to die." See what He says about it. See what He says about it.
