<TITLE>02. Par 4-6</TITLE>L-4 Now, tomorrow night, we have Friday night, and then Saturday morning is the Full Gospel Business Men's Breakfast. I've been given the privilege and honor to speak at this breakfast. Now, I wish to speak at that, the Lord willing, Saturday morning. I guess they've already announced it, where it will be at.
And then Sunday afternoon, back here for our closing service. And I want to say tonight, if nothing else happens between now and the closing service, I'll thank God as long as I live for this meeting. It's been a wonderful meeting. One of the most outstanding things about it is that unity, that feeling of close fellowship, just knitted together. That's what I like. That's where the Holy Spirit can work. Here on the platform it's so easy with these brethren. You know I've seen the time that I had to ha--well, have people to leave the platform from behind me to minister; many you all have seen that. But this meeting, I haven't mentioned a thing, because it's just been so much full cooperation everywhere. And them men there praying for me, and out here, till it's just been marvelous.
I haven't turned and said nothing. There's some of these ministers is sick, I know it. Don't worry; it'll be all right. See? Because they're shepherds, if I'd turn to them and leave someone in the audience, they'd rather it would be one of their audience than to be themselves. That would be the attitude, I--I really believe that they would take. And so worthy people...

L-5 And these handkerchiefs and things that's being laid up now, after a bit, before, while I'm praying for the sick I'll go over and pray for them also, because I would rather pray for them when I feel the anointing of the Holy Spirit upon the--upon the congregation and all around.
I think, what if this handkerchief here, that little note pinned on it, was going to my mother and she was laying in a dying condition. What if that was going to one of my children, and they were laying dying? I'd want the most sincere and--that I could get from my brother to pray for that. Well, it may be going to somebody's mother, or somebody's child, or something, and we want to be the deepest of sincerity of these things, then God will answer prayer.

L-6 Now, that's close. I know it's--this meeting was pushing Christmas time. We were going to take another meeting up in--in Washington, Spokane, I believe it was, or not Spokane, it was Yakima, Washington. But we see it's pushing a little toward Christmas. And these meetings has to be supported, you know that, because I don't have the finance to support them myself. I don't ask one penny for myself, just that they pay the expenses so we won't owe nothing. That's all. See?
And now, I'm--I'm working; I--I make my salary from my church: one hundred dollars a week is what I get from my church. But the meeting has to be supported. And then the people along this time, you've got families and children. Many has been asking me, "Soon as you leave here, will you come to our church? You got a little time now." I'm going back to my Tabernacle because--for a little revival for them, just for them, on teaching how to receive the Holy Spirit and so forth. See, we're a Baptist background there, and so we want to get into the real thing with them.
So the reason I don't, because if I go into another meeting, mothers and daddies will take from their pocket to support the meeting, and maybe the little baby would--little fellows would miss something at Christmas, and that'd make me feel awful bad. See? So I'll come back after Christmas, and then we'll--we'll start from there again. But just before Christmas, I like to leave it just everything.
