<TITLE>12. Par -</TITLE>L-18-1 But let me say to the people of God and to you children, that you might know that God never leaves you without a witness. Not knowing to Saul: Saul knowed nothing about it; God had a little David back over behind the hill somewhere that wasn't feeding sheep on ecclesiastical weeds. He was leading them beside still waters and in green pastures. He was mindful of his father's sheep, and if something run in, an enemy, to grab one of his father's sheep, he knowed the power of God to deliver that sheep.
God's still got a David somewhere that knows what it means to deliver one of God's sheep by the power of God. He still knows all about it. He had trusted... He didn't know nothing about Saul's armor, and neither did he want any of it. He didn't want any of their denominations; he didn't want the old armor upon him. He said, "I don't know nothing about it. But let me go in the power that I know of."

L-18-3 He had fed his father's sheep. He had took care of the pastures. He'd given them the right kind of food, and they live and thrive. "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God man shall live." The true shepherd feeds them Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever. And if the enemy grabs one in sickness, he knows the power of God.
Look at, little David stood there, said, "That guy is a warrior from his birth. And from his youth he's knowed nothing but a spear and a armor. He's well trained. He's a theologian. And you know nothing about it?"
He said, "That is true, sir. I don't know nothing about his theological training, but there's one thing I do know: that when an enemy come in to take one of my father's sheep, I went with the power of God. I delivered him. I brought him safely back to good health again. I brought him back to the shady green pastures and the still waters. And the God that delivered the lion into my hands, and I slew him when he took one of the--the lambs, and He let me slay the bear; so will God of the heaven go with me to slay this uncircumcised Philistine." We need leadership of the Holy Spirit.

L-19-1 I don't know my days. No one does. The other morning I was laying in my bed. And I was--had been asleep, and I dreamed that Joseph was sick, and I'd picked him up to pray for him. And when I woke up I was very upset. I said, "Well, maybe Joseph is going to be sick." And I looked going before me in a little dark shadow, rather, of a brownish color, and it seemed like it was me. And I watched it and coming behind it was someone white, and it was Him. I looked over to my wife to see if she was awake that I could show her, if she could see the vision, but she was sleeping. I said, "Oh, I'm sorry, Lord, but that's been my life. You've had to drive me to everything that I done. Every time anything would happen, I'd think it was You doing it, and I realize it was Satan trying to keep me away from it." I said, "If You could only lead me." And as I looked I seen the prettiest face I ever saw on a Man. He was in front of me looking back. He raised His hand and got ahold of mine and started moving this a-way. The vision left me.
