<TITLE>10. Par 31-32</TITLE>L-31 But you know, the seed of Abraham believes God. There's something in them. A man says he don't believe in the supernatural, he don't believe in the Holy Spirit, don't believe in Divine healing, how can he believe except there is something in there to believe with? When he's borned again, he will believe it, because he is a son of God. The Creator Who created all things and made the world by His own Word... The very dirt that you're setting over tonight, is nothing in the world but God's Word made manifest.
God said, "Let there be." And it was. He believed His own Word. Every material thing come from the supernatural. God spoke the world into existence. If He didn't, where did He get the material to make it with? He made it, because it's His Word. He spoke it and said, "Let there be." And it was. And when God says anything, if you'll accept it and hold onto it...
Chronologists tell us the world is millions of years old. Doesn't make any difference how old it was, He could've spoke it in two minutes or two million years. That fits in His program; but He made it. Oh, I love that. I just like to push that in Satan's neck to let him see that it's God's Word. God said so. That settles it!

L-32 Abraham said... God said, "Separate yourself, Abraham." As I said, God calls for separators; we call for mixers.
A certain church that I was at not long ago, they was voting in their pastor. And they said, "Now, we can't have him, because he is an old crank. We want somebody who will go swimming with us, the girls and boys together, who will take a little sociable drink, let us have dances in the basement." Huh! You just... I don't know what to tell you. You're sure in a bad shape.
You see, sometime your choice is not God's choice. One time God was going to choose a king to take--to take Saul's place from backsliding. And so He told the prophet, "Go up to Jesse's sons. I've chose one."
So Jesse said, "Oh, that's wonderful." He goes out, brings his great big tall son, seven foot tall, a little man standing there with a cruse of oil in his hand. He said, "Now, this man will look beautiful with that crown on his head. Look how them long robes will look. Don't he look like a king when he walks, anyhow?"
"That's him. Bring him up here." So the prophet said, "We will just pour oil on him."
But when he went, God said, "I've refused him."
He brought the next one, great big strong fellow. God said, "I've refused him."
"Well, they're the biggest boys I got. Well, they're the only ones who'd look right with the crown on their head. They're the only ones who are straight enough to walk like a king."
God said, "I've refused them."
Well, he brought six of them. Might've said, "Haven't you got another one?"
"Oh, yes. I've got a little old naughty fellow back over here herding some sheep, but I'm sure he wouldn't look good as a king."
Said, "Go bring him up here and let me see him."
And as soon as little old David with the little sheepskin coat on, a little slingshot in his hand, walking along, toddling up like that, stooped shoulders, perhaps a little scrawny looking boy, the Holy Ghost said, "That's My man!" He knowed what was on the inside of him. Man looks on the outside; God looks on the heart.
