<TITLE>15. Par 53-55</TITLE>L-53 There was a little Swedish woman setting up there who said to my boy, Billy, said, "Billy, give me a prayer card." And Brother Osborn was there that night with his s--his picture, "Black Gold," I believe he calls it.
And some woman said later on, she seen that poor little woman get down and go into her pocket book to give that a--a missionary offering. Now, that wasn't what did the miracle. You don't have to give one penny to--or nothing else. You have to have faith in God. It isn't how much you put on a collection plate, it's how much you've got here in your heart towards Him. That's what it is. So she went down and give this money out. And that's--and she said, "Billy, would you give me a prayer card?"
He said, "Sister, I don't know. I'll see if Leo and Gene's got one." My boys, they give out cards too. So he said, went back, and none of them had one. And said, "Well, sister, tomorrow night you meet me here and you get a card."
Said, "That's all right, honey." Very sweet old woman. And she went back into the--into the Lane Tech where several thousand people were seated. And that night, while I was standing there, the Holy Spirit turned and said, "The little woman setting there with the little calico dress on, she's praying for her husband who's a dispatcher on the radio, who's got a deaf ear, but THUS SAITH THE LORD, he is just now come open." She looked at her watch. And when she got home, there was her husband screaming and shouting. She said, "Honey, what time did your ear come open?" Said, "I was setting in my seat just exactly the same minute the Lord said do it." It's been that way here. It always has been that way, and it always will be that way. It's the same.

L-54 Here, Billy, you got your scrapbook? Here, I got it here now. Just a few days ago, here's Brother--Dr. Vayle, here was setting in a meeting, and a poor little woman; she got a prayer card. Her number wasn't called. She was setting back in the back, crying because her prayer card wasn't called. She was suffering with some kind of a epilepsy, heart trouble and epi--epilepsy. And she had epilepsy and heart trouble. Her picture is on the front page of the paper. They put it on television, everywhere, throughout the New England states. It went on the Associated Press. And there it was, a little woman setting back there. I was praying, watching the people. After while I seen that Light going milling around. You've seen the picture of It, haven't you? Brother Gordon Lindsay and them was down there when it was taken. It was taken... Here's a man from Germany, here's right now, was there when it taken three times by the German camera. Over in Switzerland, taken by the Swiss camera. What is it? That same Pillar of Fire that followed the children of Israel. You believe it?

L-55 Look. When He was here on earth, how many knows that that was the Pillar of Fire that followed the children of Israel in the wilderness, that It was Christ, the Angel of the covenant? All right. And how many knows that that was Jesus in Jesus, that same Spirit? Look, when they questioned Him, Saint John 6, calling your...?... attention to it. They said, "You say you're greater than Abraham?" And said, that, "Why, you're only fifty years old, yet."
He said, "Before Abraham was, I AM." I AM was in the burning bush. Is that right? A Pillar of Fire... When He was here on earth, He said, "I came from God, and I go to God." Did He say it? And then, if He came from the Pillar of Fire, He returned back to it again.
After His death, burial, and resurrection, Saint Paul was on his road down to Damascus and big bright Light struck in his face and blinded him. None of the rest of them saw It. Paul saw It. It blinded him; he fell on the ground. What is this Pillar of Fire, again? "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou Me?"
"Who are You, Lord?"
"I'm Jesus." Is that right?
