<TITLE>03. Par 8-11</TITLE>L-8 Now let us bow our heads just before we read the Word.
O Lord, the great God of heavens and earth, Who brought again the Lord Jesus from the dead, raised Him up on the third day, according to the Scriptures, and He sets now at the right hand of the Majesty on high, no more dead, but ever alive to make intercessions upon our confession, the High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities. We humbly come, because we have been bidden to come, for He did tell us in His Word, "Ask the Father anything in My Name; I'll do it."
Therefore, Lord, we first want to thank You for what You have done for us in these last three services. You have blessed our hearts with Your Presence, and has healed the sick, and has given salvation to those that were thirsting for God. We pray, O Lord, tonight that You'll double the portion tonight by filling every heart with the Holy Spirit, giving healing to those that are sick and needy, and blessing us altogether.

L-9 And as we are praying, we would not forget those that are in the hospitals, and infirmed in the convalescent homes. Many of them in the old age stage, that maybe their loved ones and many of their associates, nearly all has gone upstairs... But we have this glorious consolation that He will never forsake us or leave us alone. When we are growing old and feeble, He will stand by us even through the valley of the shadows of death.
Bless us together; forgive our sins, and speak to us, Lord, through Thy Word as we wait upon It. Bless this church and all that's represented here, this radio--the station, and all that is concerned. For we ask it in the Name of the Lord Jesus, Thy Son, our Saviour. Amen.

L-10 I have chosen for a text tonight found in the book of I Kings, the 17th chapter and the 14th verse.
 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel will not waste, nor the cruse run dry, until the day that the LORD God sends rain upon the earth.
You know, God's people has always been in the minority, not always in the majority. And I'm speaking of the chosen and the elected, God's chosen people.
And it's always a strange thing to me, how that people that have accepted Christ, is afraid to trust Him, afraid that there might be something they're not sure of. And I'm going to make my text tonight, "Be Certain Of God."

L-11 It must have been a hot morning. It was along about day break. All night long she had prayed, for death was strolling at the door. And this nation was backslidden. People were starving in the streets, and the water fountains had dried up. And there had been three years, not even moisture had fell on the ground by the dew. It showed a moral decay in the nation. It reflected the sins of the people.
It was during the time of the reign of Ahab, Israel's most wicked king. He had married a sinner, Jezebel, a beautiful modern movie star, very indifferent towards the Kingdom of God. And he, being one of these kind of husbands that lets the wife run the house, and run his business, showed that he was backslid. Then, being an Israelite, he give in to her idolatry. And between them, they had brought all the nation to idolatry.
And when you start on the wrong road, you'll never be able to be reconciled, till you come right back to the place where you left God.
