<TITLE>05. Par 17-20</TITLE>L-17 Now, we're going to find He's set in church certain ministries for certain ages. You believe that. Certainly He did. Now, we're all at a carnival or a circus. We can't get in. We haven't got no money.
Now, I look at, say, Brother Borders here, maybe he's a short, stout man. He's strong enough, he can pack water to the elephants, maybe get hisself in. Well, I couldn't do it, 'cause I'm kind of a weakling, but I'm real tall and thin.
And we're slipping around side of the big board fence, and--and we're both saying we find a knot hole, and it's way up here high. Well, Brother Borders could never get up to that knot hole. But I can if I'll jump. All right, I'll make a great big jump and grab my fingers just around top of the fence. I'll pull up, look through the hole. I come back down. And say, "What did you see?"
"Elephant."
"Oh, you did."
"Uh-huh, yep."
"What else did you see?"

L-18 Now, that's the visions that you see here in the church. See, I'm standing there. You, yourself, are operating that. You're doing that yourself. When you're out there in the audience and believing, you're the ones doing that yourself.
Jesus told the woman, "Thy faith..." Why didn't He feel the touch of the rest of them? They didn't have that faith. But that one woman touched Him. See? "Thy faith has saved thee."
Now, the first thing you know you... Now, they're standing on the platform, here's the person. I've never seen them in my life. All right, what do I do? I enter into a relaxation of my own self into a gift. And the first thing you know, I see the woman. She's got cancer. "You have cancer." Oh, my. When I drop like from here. See? Whew. That was hard.
"Yes, I got cancer." See? That ought to alarm the whole audience, but it doesn't. It doesn't even alarm her sometimes.
"He guessed that." I can feel it right then. See?

L-19 "Now, what else did you see?" Oh, here we go again, and jump up, get my fingers a hold, 'cause I just barely reach it and pull hard.
"What else did you see?"
"Giraffe." See?
"What else have I got?"
"Well, you've also got a asthmatic cough."
"Yeah, that's right."
I'm just about gone by that time. See? Now, here stands the whole church wanting to know something about themselves. See? They're doing that themselves.

L-20 Now, here comes the--the--the giant by, the ringmaster. "What are you doing, son?"
"I was looking over the fence through that knot hole telling these men."
He reached down and get me in his hand, picks me up here. He says, "You see here? You see that thing there. It takes place. It comes over here. The garland riders come by here, go down here. It happens down here. And this woman jumps off here, goes through those hoop of fire. This goes out."
"Oh, is that the way it is."
"Yeah."
"All right, that's the way it is, son."
Now, that's God using His gift. Here is you using God's gift. There on a real vision is God using His gift. That never bothers me. Don't hurt me a bit, 'cause I'm just setting right in the palm of His hand. He's showing me. That's when God wants to use His gift. And that's when you are using God's gift.
I can't use it. It's not for me; it's for you. I can see nothing for myself. See? It's all for you. I got a thousands of things in my heart this afternoon I wished He'd show me. But He doesn't show me what for me to do, about me. It's for you. I'm just a public servant of God to you. You understand now?
