<TITLE>09. Par 27-29</TITLE>L-27 What about the balcony up there? You know what, geographically speaking, you're just a little closer to heaven than they are down here. That's right. Put up your hands up, and say, "God, I want to recognize tonight that Jesus, God's Son, gives me everything that I eat, all of my clothes and my... Whatever He gives me, Lord, I thank You. And I want to open my heart, my door of faith; I want You to come in and take possession. And I want you to open my eyes. Oh, Lord, I have set in the meetings. I've heard Brother Branham and many of the ministers talk about You being the same yesterday, today, and forever. And I've tried hard to believe that. And I've really seen Your power come and unfold the secrets of the heart. I've seen You speak through Your servant to absolutely strange people and would know who they were, the sins that they were doing, the sickness that was in their bodies. And I've seen You heal them from all the way blindness, sickness, insanity, and have set them free. And somehow I've kept my own little door of faith closed. God, be merciful to me tonight," say, "and open my door of faith." Would them people raise their hands to God? "Open up my door, Lord." God bless you. That's right. God bless you. "Open my door of faith, Lord. I open it to You. Come in. Be Lord. Be Ruler. Take me as I am. I'm no good."
You might as well confess it. "What is man that Thou art mindful of him?" I don't mean this rude. I love you. And God loves you. But without God you're no good anyhow. You're just six foot of dust where you're going, and that's it, in a soul to hell. But if you're borned again, you're a child of God. Open your door and let Him have lordship over your being.

L-28 Look at Him, what He does, while you're talking to Him now. Look at Peter when he come. Jesus knew who he was. He said, "Thou art Simon. And after this you're going to be called Peter. And your father's name is Jonas." He told Philip where Nathanael found him, or Nathanael where Philip found him. And He also knowed the secret of the Samaritan woman's heart. That one who touched His garment, He turned and looked. He perceived the thoughts of the people that said He was Beelzebub. He's still the same tonight. He said, "These things that I do shall you also."

L-29 [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] And that You will come into their heart as Lord and Saviour. Bless those who's raise their hands, who has already accepted You, but have not fully opened every door in their heart. Grant, Lord, that every door may be opened now, that the Son of glory will come in. And anoint their eyes that they might see His glory and His Presence. Get glory to Thyself, Lord. For I, as Your servant, present them to You as the trophies of the message, in the Name of the Lord Jesus. Amen.
[Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... as many as believed was added to the church. They believed and accepted Christ. But I do love to see the altar and people at it, repenting. No matter how much you cried, how much you begged, until your faith looked there and accepted Him as your personal Saviour, wouldn't do you no good to pray or cry.
Peter said, "Repent, every one of you, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you and to your children (and them that's at Chicago), and as many as far off, just as many as the Lord our God shall call." And if you raised your hand, He's still calling. Believe Him now.
