<TITLE>14. Par 51-54</TITLE>L-51 He said, "Let me hear this fellow that's a fanatic, that you call, the one that won't join up with your organization and the one that just got his own ideas." Because he knowed that man must have the truth, because he knowed that wasn't.
So, he said, "I'll send, get him then."
So out into the hills they went and down into the alley, wherever he was preaching, or the little mission. And here come a lot of them, and while they were gone, oh, my, did they have a tantrum. Why, even one guy named Zedekiah, it... Or he went and put horns on his head. Oh, brother, he had the revelation just right. He had oil on his hands and everything else. He was having him a time. Yes, sir. "Oh, THUS SAITH THE LORD, I'll... You're going to push Syria plumb back into the land with these horns." They was having them a time.
So the runner who came, said, "Micaiah?"
Said, "Yes."
"Are you the son of Imlah?"
"Yes, I am."
"Are you the prophet, the holy-roller, the fanatic?"
"Well, I suppose that's me."
"Well, the king wants to see you."
"Oh, he does?" Micaiah already knowed that, no doubt. The Lord done told him what all that gathering's down there was about...?...

L-52 So he said, "Now, wait a minute, before you start this revival, I'm going to tell you what to preach on. Now, all the other preachers don't preach about these things. Don't you say nothing about horse racing. And don't you say nothing about this, and the--and...?... this, and that, because, you see, the other preachers don't say that." Said, "You say the same thing they say."
Now, that was what would be today. Now, we're going to say what the Scriptures says. He said, "Micaiah, the other prophets prophesy good to our king. And now, you know, he's a dignified man, in otherwise. Now, you must say the same thing he--they say and prophesy good."
He said, "As my God liveth, I'll only say what THUS SAITH THE LORD is." Amen. God, give us some Micaiahs. Stay with the Word. He might've had not all the fantastics the others had. He might not have had the degree the other one had, the Ph.D.; he might not have had the social standing; he might not've been the big D.D. in the front of the people, but he had the Word. Amen.

L-53 Brother, that's it. He knew God would keep His Word. So He said, "Just what God tells me to say, I'll say the same thing God says. And if God predicts these days are coming, if He predicts this wrong things, the worship of women, or the intercession of saints, or communion of saints, if He condemns all this nonsense, and these other things, and said, 'As Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so will these in the last days,' I condemn the thing in the Word of God and say it's wrong."
Stay with the Word. I don't care how many sensations you feel, how much you can jump and shout, how much you can do this better, if the Spirit of God doesn't lead you to a clean, perfect life before God, condemn the thing. God wanted you to run oil, He'd made you an olive tree or a Texas oil well.

L-54 Let me tell you something: God has purposes for everything. Stay with the Word. What the Bible says, stay with it; It's God's Urim Thummim. And old Micaiah the prophet stayed on the Word of God, walked down there just as boldly as a lion. That night the Lord give him a vision; he knowed where he was standing. And watch. Oh, brother. The others had a vision too. But their vision didn't cooperate with the Word of God. But Micaiah's was with the Word of God. 'Cause Elijah, which had the Word of God, the prophet, the seer, had already said what would happen to Ahab. So how could Micaiah say something good was going to happen, when the Word of God said bad was going to happen? So he was with the Word.
