<TITLE>04. Par 13-17</TITLE>L-13 And then, this Scripture stumped me even more, because it was outstanding: such a promise being made by none other than Jesus Christ. And when He said to His disciples, "What things soever you say, you can have. If thou shall say to this mountain, 'Be plucked up and removed into the sea,' and will not doubt in your heart, but shall believe that what you have said will come to pass, you can have what you said."...
Oh, if we could weigh those words: "You can have what you say," not what I say, but what you have said. "You can have what you said."...
For years, I lingered over that. I went to every lexicon, commentary, every translation, even to the Douay version. And every translator translates it the same: "You can have what you say."
So I know that if it's written in the Scripture... To me, all Scripture is Truth. And if I can't rightly divide It, It's still the Truth.

L-14 So I believe sometimes that God just lets us see things when it's time for us to see things. He withholds these blessings. Like, the blessings that we're enjoying today, our forefathers did not enjoy those. It wasn't season for them.

L-15 And I could remember when the Holy Spirit that night, when I returned back to this same desk from the mill where I'd been praying, and told many of you people setting here, that He had charged me by His Spirit, a commission to all the world: that the lame would walk, and the blind would see, and that kings and monarchs would be calling for prayer. And it would start a revival among the brethren that would sweep around the world before the coming of the Lord.
It was hard to believe that. It was hard for me to believe it. But that's what's happened. It's just did that thing, to today re--Holy Ghost revival fires are burning the world around. India, Africa, Asia, all into Europe, and everywhere, Holy Ghost men, filled with the Spirit, is burning the world up with a revival of the power of the risen Christ. Lame walk, blind see, deaf hear, dumb speak, all kinds of marvelous miracles are taking place, because God promised it. And God's promise is true.

L-16 And when I begin to ponder over this, I could not but ask the One Who was speaking to me. I was insufficient.
And I suppose God had to pick some little unconcerned illiterate person, because in that, He--God takes something that's nothing, something that's been cast out... That's what makes me love God's people so. They cast them out as holy-rollers or illegitimate people. But that's when God's ready to pick them up then and do something with them. And it pleases Him. That shows that He's God: takes nothing and make something out of it, takes a sinner like me, and makes a Christian, the hand of God.

L-17 I questioned Him of the ability. And He told me that I was to pray for sick people. And the commission was: Get the people to believe and be sincere, then nothing would stand by the prayer. Many of you here remember that, has printed it in literature across the world.
I questioned, how could I do that when I had no education. And He said, "There'll be two signs be given you as was given to Moses." And one of them would be about like Moses' hand: He changed it from leprosy to healing, and... And then the same taken place about the--putting my hand on the people. And then how that that made itself manifest. Then He said, "You'll know the very secrets of their heart."
And I--I said, "That is why I'm here."
He said... Then He explained the Scriptures to me. And oh, from that time, the Bible become a new Word to me. I had a different look on It, a different view of It. Something happened.
Then a little later, He said, "Then if you'll be sincere, stay humble, keep away from money and stuff," said, "then It'll just keep blessing you, and you'll keep climbing."
