<TITLE>03. Par 10-12</TITLE>L-10 I'm wondering; I'm watching... Now, you wonder why I'm speaking, watching around like this. I'm seeing of the audience, how they're... Seems like they don't hear so well. Can you hear around back under the--back there, can you hear all right? Just about one or two hands. What about back here? Can you hear all right? Way back? I didn't think you could. You can notice when you're saying things. That's the reason I was doing that, to see what kind of an effect it would take. I wonder if there'd be some way... All right, the gentleman there, is going to try to fix it so they can hear back around the sides.
You can stand here and have a... If you've been praying, and prayed up, you can watch the effects it has on the people when you say anything. And usually that's the way I find my text.
[The PA system causes feedback--Ed.] Now, I believe we've got music with it. Just... I haven't got a melodious voice. I don't believe we could stand that much. But is it better? Back under the--back beneath, is it better? Over here? Can you hear me better now? Good. That's fine.

L-11 Well now, let us bow our heads now for a word of prayer, and we'll start right into the service, and we're going to ask the Lord Jesus to bless His Word that we read now.
Our heavenly Father, we come tonight, to ask You to receive us as a people, as Your Church. And this building, which is called here, the Madison Square Garden of Phoenix, I pray Thee, heavenly Father, that You will sanctify this building, that the Angels of God will move in. For we realize that it's not the building that we're in; it's the people in the building. Not the building that makes the church: it's the people inside the building. And I pray, Thee, heavenly Father, that this, the purchase of Thy Blood tonight, being gathered here, the people that will live forever in a world that is to come... And we've come here for the purpose of fellowshipping through the Holy Spirit and enjoying the Word of God, as Brother David duPlessis, our teacher, and many others are bringing the Word.
And that the Holy Spirit might come and convince sinners of their wrong. And would bring His Presence so near unto us that all the peoples would want to serve Him. Grant it, Lord.

L-12 And there's no man that's able to open the Book or to loose the seals thereof, but there was a Lamb that had been slain from the foundation of the world. He come and took the Book out of the hand of Him that set upon the throne, for He was worthy.
O Lamb of God, come tonight in Thy transforming power and take the Words that we shall read and reveal them to us in the power of the Spirit. When this service shall end tonight, may every unbeliever that's present become a believer. May those that have fallen from the way, renew their vows, the sick be healed. And when we're on our way across the city, in different places, may we say like those who came from Emmaus that day, "Did not our hearts burn within us, as He talked to us along the way?"
Then Father, we would pray that You would do something outstanding tonight, that would attract the attention of the people through Thy Word. Make Thy Word alive to us. We are able to read It. Who has enough education to read, we can read It, but we cannot make It live. It takes the Spirit, the Holy Spirit, to make the Word live. May It live in every heart here tonight. We ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.
