<TITLE>13. Par 43-46</TITLE>L-43 Our heavenly Father, be merciful now. They--they've raise their hands, crying, "Thou Son of David, be merciful to me." And may they, this very hour, receive Jesus as their personal Saviour. May He come in great power in their life. This young man up here, Lord, that raised his hand, something's dealt deeply with my heart on that boy. I pray, Father, maybe You're calling a minister to the service. Oh, I pray that You'll bless him and all these others that raised their hands, young and old, may they receive Jesus just now as Saviour. And then go out of here and be baptized in some good church in Christian faith, receive the Holy Spirit, and go out into the service of God to do whatever they can do to help bring Jesus to this dying nation and dying world. Grant it, Father. Pass by us tonight, Father, and visit. We pray in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-44 Let's sing just one verse of that before we go any farther--"Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour."
 ... me not, O gentle Saviour,
 Hear my humble cry,
 While on others Thou art calling,
 Do not pass me by.
 Saviour, Saviour,
 Hear my humble cry.
 While on others Thou art calling,
 Do not pass me by.
Sweetly now, let's all believers raise our hands while we sing it real quietly.
 Saviour, (A Spirit of worship now, the message is over; let's worship the Lord.)
 Hear my humble cry.
 While on others Thou art calling,
 Oh, do not pass me by.
Let's just hum it. Your eyes closed, just praying.

L-45 Oh, don't you love Him? Tell me something greater than Love? God is Love. No one will ever be able to express how God is such Love. He is Agapao Love, the greatest Love of all.
Now, I was just going to preach and make an altar call tonight, and then I got here, I was all turned around. I met Billy; I said, "You give out any prayer cards?"
Said, "Nope." Never give out any prayer cards. But we don't need any prayer cards for a healing service.
Are you wanting... You think, tonight... You love Him? You believe He's the same Lord Jesus? You believe that your faith could reach up and say, "Thou Son of David, have mercy on me. I am needy. I need Thee. Oh I need Thee. Every hour, I need Thee. Oh bless me now, my Saviour, I come to Thee." You believe you could touch Him, cause Him to turn around, say, "Thy faith has saved Thee." You believe you could do that, out there, without prayer card? You believe you have faith enough to do it? You do, raise up your hand, say, "I believe I have faith." Oh, that's the way I like to see you put your hand up. "I believe."

L-46 All right. I know none of you. The Holy Spirit knows you all, but He's here. His Presence is here, and He--was here today, He would do just like He did then. If you had faith to touch Him, He'd turn around. That's always what it did. Was that right? Faith is what touched Him. The woman touched His garment, and He turned around, said, "Who touched Me?" He looked all around till He found the little woman; He said, "Your blood issue stopped, because your faith has saved you. (See?) Your faith did it." And Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Is that right?
If blind Bartimaeus' faith could stop Him, if Philip, standing there looking at Him could go get Nathanael... Nathanael could be brought before Him, and He told him where he was at before he left... When Andrew went and got his brother, Simon Peter (or Simon, it was then) and brought him to Jesus. And Jesus looked over at him, said, "Your name is Simon. Your father was Jonas." That's the same Jesus tonight. See?
