<TITLE>07. Par 33-37</TITLE>L-33 It was Moses, the mighty prophet, an old sheepherder he'd turned in to be, that was wondering back behind the mountain one day on a little old path that the sheep had made. Perhaps it was very familiar to him. But that morning was just a little different from other mornings. There seemed to be something around him.
You know, Jesus said once, "If they hold their peace, the rocks will cry out." I wonder if the Angels wasn't preaching to him.
All of a sudden he begin to think on his ways, how that he'd made a failure in life, and had tried to find safety while his people was in bondage.
God, grant that the heart of every preacher in here will get that burden. How can we rest in Zion when the world is covered with sin and church members living in sin? How can we hold our peace when the church is tore to pieces by creeds and denominations, and brotherhood is separated, and the people are becoming weary, when God requires holiness, or no man shall see the Lord?

L-34 Moses begin to think on his ways, how that he'd went off in his own schooling and training, and he knowed there was a call of God on his life. But he had tried to work it out his own way.
Many of us preachers get in that trouble. A call of God in our life and then go off and get a schooling that tells us that the days of miracles are past, and there's no such a thing as the baptism of the Holy Spirit: them was for days gone by. God, let you think on your ways. That same God wrote that Word still lives and holds you responsible to It.

L-35 It's wrong... God's infinite. And when He speaks, it's got to be perfect. He cannot change. We cannot alter God's Word; we have to alter our thinking to His thinking. Let the mind of Christ be in you. Then you'll think like He thinks.
And as he begin to think on those things, I can see him become all tore up. There's no man who can come into the presence of his own past but what gets tore up about it. I pray that the Holy Spirit will bring every human being in here now back to your past and look at it, then turn to His testimony.

L-36 And as he begin to think, I can see that old man with flowing white beard. But he said, "I've ruined my life. I'm eighty years old. And if I'd have thought of it when I was a young man and would've done the right thing, but now it's too far." And the great crystal tears rolling down his white whiskers...
And about that time, when he was thinking on his way, there was a cracking noise on the side of the hill. And while he was thinking on his ways, he said, "I'll turn aside to see what this thing God has done." I trust that God will bring that burning bush in the hearing distance of every person here tonight. We can think on our ways.
And it changed Moses when he turned his feet from the path of sheep and wild animals to the path that God had led him through the Red Sea and to the promised land. Thinking on his ways, it does us good to think on His ways.

L-37 After the cock had crowed three times and Peter looked up in the face of the Lord Jesus, he begin to think on his ways, and what he had done to our Lord. And the prophecy and the Word of the Lord came into his view, for he knowed God had said. That same God that told him that has told us what to do. What did it do when he thought on the ways that he had treated Jesus, and how he had denied Him before the classical people, and how that he'd tried to be one of the world, and tried to act like the rest of them. When he thought on his ways, it drove him into the darkness to weep bitterly.
I believe it's cock crowing time now for the church of the living God to get alone with God and weep in bitterness of tears, and say, "God, be merciful to me." No doubt but what there's men and women here tonight, boys and girls that need that same thing, all of us need it: alone with God. Think of our ways as we go, turn our feet to His testimony.
