<TITLE>04. Par 9-11</TITLE>L-9 Won't it be wonderful then? Now, let us bow our heads just a moment for prayer.
O God, Who formed the heavens and the earth, just let His breath go forth with His Word, and everything taking its right position. The earth, the moon, the stars all swung into place, just as God breathed on His Word. And O God, today we ask that You'll breathe on Your Word as we are trying to bring it to the people. May It take Its position this morning, Its place, and be rooted and grounded in ever heart, that every person here might receive Your blessings.
Help those, Lord, who are out of the way, crippled and lame in their spirit. They don't know You as a loving Saviour, as we have been privileged to. We pray that You will bless them abundantly today, and may they, when they leave this building, be happy and rejoicing over the new found Christ that they have become acquainted with during this meeting.
If there's some that's sliding away to the cares of the world, O God, bring them back. And the sick and the needy, Father, we pray for them, that You'll heal every sick person here today. Encourage those who are weary, and bless those who are holding faithfully. Grant it, Lord. May Your Spirit be upon all. Bless the Word as It goes forth, the speaker that shall speak It, and the hearer that shall hear It. And altogether get glory for this gathering this morning, for we ask it in Christ's Name. Amen.

L-10 Now, I haven't got just exactly rested up from the long meeting, which has been now some four months; and this last five weeks meeting has been very tearing down. For we've had a wonderful meeting all the way across the nation now, from New York to San Francisco, the whole nation zigzagging back and forth as we have crossed. The Lord has saved many, many hundreds of people.
Last Sunday, a week ago, alone, our blessed heavenly Father... I seen between a thousand and fifteen hundred sinners repenting at one time at the altar at Oakland, California, in the big arena. It was just packed out. And we had--had to seat the middle of the place, down the middle instead of the--the arena sides, and the Lord just blessed.

L-11 And we had in there the great earthquake, as you have heard; and that was my wife's first one to be into. She was just a little shaky afterwards. It was very strong, as the buildings shook, and the dust flew, and the bottles on the she... We was standing in a drugstore getting some postcards to mail home, and the bottles shook, and the chimney fell off; and the big buildings rocked together, and road split open, and part of it sunk underneath, and... It just goes to remind us that the handwriting's on the wall. There will be earthquakes in diver's places. And that one day, eight earthquakes struck that same city.
And then about ten o'clock that night, we had just got in, or ten thirty and gone to bed, and the--the lamps setting in the middle of the floor, liked to rocked over from another great heavy earthquake. Just goes to show, that eight thousand miles beneath us is nothing but burning red lava. And it was just at the time that was hear the--our aggressors across the sea saying that they have... forbidding the people to go into Scandinavia and so forth, that they'd annihilate them with atomic weapons. And we wonder what would happen if they would start dropping those bombs, and bursting those places into the earth. When it would just exactly do what God said it would do: no more water, but fire this time.
