<TITLE>08. Par 32-35</TITLE>L-32 Now, sometime ago I read in a paper, where a little boy at school was eating the erasers off of his pencils. And his mother was alarmed about it. And then, one afternoon, to her surprise, she finds the little lad setting on the back porch, eating the pedal off of a bicycle. She was strangely alarmed.
She got the little fellow ready quickly and taken him to the clinic. While the doctors examined his blood and--and gave him a thorough physical examination, they found out that his little blood needed sulfur. Now, the sulfur is found in rubber. You see, before he could crave for sulfur, there had to be a sulfur first, to respond to that crave, or he'd have never had the crave.

L-33 And as long as men and women, protestant and Catholic, Jew, or whatever they may be, as long as there is something in their heart calling for healing from God, there's got to be some place they can go and find that healing, or there has to be a Creator to create that desire before there could be a desire.
Many Catholic peoples goes to the shrine (I forget the name of it; I was there) at Paris. I was at Notre Dame where that the--the sister that's buried where they have rubbed the stone at her head for healing, praying to her to give them healings. And the peoples of all religions seems to have something within them that calls for someone who has created them to help them in a time of trouble.

L-34 When we come to America when--at Plymouth Rock, our forefathers found the indian worshipping the sun or something. There's something within a man that tells him that there is a God somewhere.
Way back in the jungles in Africa in the hottentots, you find them with idols sprinkled with blood--hideous looking beasts. They know there is something somewhere. And as long as there is something in a man's heart calling for God, there's got to be a God to respond to that call. If there is a hunger for Divine healing... The very reason you're setting here tonight, maybe the doctors has given you up... If I had never read the Scripture, something would tell me that there's a fountain open somewhere.
And if you've come just to be coming, and you expected when you got here that you would find something to criticize, Satan will show it to you. You always get what you expect. God has promised that. If you've come to find good, if you've come to know Christ, and to--to see Him, and to speak with Him about your sickness or your soul, God will see that you find Him. You get what you expect, always. And it depends on what you're expecting to find.

L-35 Now, Simeon was expecting to find the Christ Child, because the promise had been made. And the first little tug that come to his heart, that felt like the same One that spoke to him first, "he raised," said the Scripture, "and was led by the Spirit," the same Spirit that gave the promise.
Now, if the Holy Spirit changes not, and He has give the promise of Divine healing for all ages in His Word, what was it that brought you to this place tonight? God is obligated to His Word. And if He's obligated to His Word, and you believe that He is a Healer, He's obligated to bring you to that fountain where there is healing. If you're thirsty for water, there's got to be water to drink somewhere, or you'd never thirst. That's why you're here tonight.
