<TITLE>01. Par 1-4</TITLE>58-0612, We Would See Jesus, Tent Meeting, Dallas, TX, 95 min
L-1 May be seated if you... So happy to be out in the tent again tonight to minister in the Name of our precious Redeemer, the Lord Jesus. And I'm trusting that His blessings will rest upon us all. And we're a little late to get started. I know these conventions, they take quite a little time in their finances and things. That's the reason I can never have one.
I--if I had to go after it to get money I sure would be out of the picture. It's the reason I've kept my meetings humble and little so that I don't have to have money. I can go preach to ten or half a million. If the Lord wants me to preach to ten, then I'm not under any obligation: I don't have any radio, television, or any great things. And I don't need any money just to live, and so that way, I just like to live that way.

L-2 The Lord knew better than to give me anything different. If I think... My expenses runs me about a hundred dollars a day at my office. Now what about...? You say that's a whole lot. Oral Roberts is between seven and ten thousand. Billy Graham sometimes is twenty-five thousand a minute on his cast. So those people have to have money.
If I had to do that, I'd just walk away. I haven't got the intelligence to do it in the first place. But the Lord just let me live humble, and I--I don't... My meetings never get big, we just keep it small. I just held a revival in a place held twenty people, then I left India where I had five hundred thousand.

L-3 Just now, a man laid his arm around me from Germany, just now, where we had on the average of ten thousand converts every night: fifty thousand in five nights. And in Durban, South Africa we had thirty thousand in one altar call. I couldn't estimate what it was in India; there's just oceans of people. But when the Lord wants me to go over there, He just sends somebody around with the money and sends me over. Now, that's--so that's the way I have it, and I just leave it like... So He...
But like these brethren here, in these big conventions, they need lots of money and things, and they have to do it.
So let us bow our heads just a moment for prayer. Eternal God, breathe Thy Spirit upon us tonight, Lord. And we need Thee, and we pray that You'll minister to us, and let us minister to the congregation, in the Name of Thy Son, Jesus, we ask it. Amen.

L-4 Now tonight, may the Lord add His blessings. Tomorrow night is our leaving night. And we have to go from here, straight, immediately up into Greenville, South Carolina, in another convention. Then we got the Baptist people up in, I believe, it's called Green Pines (or something like that), North Carolina: Pine--Green Pine or Pines, some kind of a Pine, up in North Carolina with the Baptist people. And then from there to the Full Gospel Businessmen's Convention at Philadelphia. Then I was scheduled for overseas.
I got to have a little rest pretty soon, 'cause I'm really tired. And I just go... As just think, I've been on the constant move since January the 1st. See? And night after night... So now--not asking for sympathy, just asking for prayer. That's all. Just prayer is all I need.
