<TITLE>08. Par 26-28</TITLE>L-26 "Thou Son of David, have mercy on me."
Jesus stopped, said, "Bring him here." What was happening? Said, "What would you that I would do?"
He said, "That I might receive my sight."
He said, "Why, your faith's already made you whole." What was it? God had provided a Lamb for blind Bartimaeus' eyes.
That same Lamb is provided tonight for every spiritual or physical blind person in this world that will have enough faith to cry out from your heart, "Thou Son of David, have mercy on me." He will take away the cancer. He will take away the sickness, the blindness, whatever's wrong with you. Just the faintest little cry, God has the Lamb provided, the same yesterday, today, and forever.

L-27 It was the man's faith that stopped Him. It was the woman's faith at the--she pressed through the crowd and touched His garment and He turned around.
It's the same Jesus Who could tell Simon what his name was, and what his father's name was. It's the same Jesus could see around the mountain fifteen miles and tell Nathanael before he come to the meeting, "I saw you when you were under the tree." It's the same Jesus that seen the prostitute at the well, that looked into her face and said, "Go get your husband and come here."
When she said, "I have no husband."...
He said, "That's right, you've got five."
And she said, "Sir..."
Not like the priests of that day, they said He was Beelzebub, a fortuneteller, a devil spirit. "These things were done by an unclean spirit."
But this little woman said, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. We know, we Samaritans know, that when the Messiah comes, this will be the sign that follows the Messiah, for He will tell us all things. He's the God-prophet that Moses said would rise up. And You must be His servant. But we know when the Messiah cometh, He will tell us all things. But Who are You?"
It was that Voice could say that, "I'm He."...
And she ran into the city saying, "Come, see a Man that's told me the things that I have done."
And that testimony of that little woman stirred the whole city, until the men believed the Lord Jesus. And then He never healed any. He sent Philip down after His resurrection to heal the sick.

L-28 That same Jesus can come to the Angelus Temple tonight, in the same power of His resurrection. And your faith can call Him on the scene, if you'll just let Him do it. For He is the Lamb of God, been slain since the foundation of the world, Who healeth all our diseases, and forgives all of our sins.
Let us bow our heads and speak to Him.
Lord, just how could we speak to You, Lord, in such a way and have the--the vocabulary, that we could express our hearts, to how we love You and thank You. We who have witnessed Your resurrection power, we who have found You dear to our hearts, we pray, God, that You'll come just now. One Word from You will be more than we could say in a million lifetimes, for man can say most anything that he desires; but one Word from Thee, O Lord, will confirm Your Word to be true.
We would then ask You, Lord, that You would save every person here. And if we find favor in Thy sight, of our faith... Not because that we are so holy, we do not confess that. But we confess that we have faith in the One that was holy, and have confessed our sins, and ask pardoning, and have had the witness of His Holy Spirit upon us. We stand justified by His works.
We ask, Lord, that You'll come into our midst now. Take our faith, all that we can--can gather together. Let the great Holy Spirit come in and carry on the works of the Lord Jesus, that precious body that sets at Your right hand tonight as a High Priest to make intercessions upon our confession. Save the lost and heal the sick. We ask it in Jesus' Name.
