<TITLE>10. Par 28-29</TITLE>L-28 They had seen ten powerful miracles performed down in Egypt: flies, lice, fire, death angel. All they had seen in Egypt. All these great miracles that they'd seen God do, and were still carnal thinkers. And then they saw the Red Sea, that was laying in the path of duty. They were on their road marching then, come out, there was a Pillar of Fire before them, and they marched on to the Red Sea. And when they got there, right in the line of duty laid an obstacle. And first thing you know, fear struck them, and they didn't know what to do.
That's the way people does today. When fear strikes them when they're right in the path of duty... Listen, brother, let me say this: If you're walking in the light, having fellowship with God, with His people, and the Holy Spirit is upon you, and you meet an obstacle right in the path of duty, don't stop, just keep pressing on. God will make a way through it. That's one of the greatest experiences of my life, is to see God. When I can't get over it, get under it, get around it, or anyway, God opens up a way and I go through it. Somehow or another His grace is sufficient to carry us through it.

L-29 Now, they come to that and saw that Red Sea open, and they... what a great thing it was. How could they murmur? How could they complain after seeing those miracles? How can we complain today after seeing what we've seen? Great revivals, healing campaigns, the Spirit of the Lord coming down, a Discerner. The Bible said the Word of God, and Jesus was the Word. "In the beginning was the Word; the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us." God crossed Hisself, His own, to His cast. God, that created the earth, became earth and lived in earth. God, Who made flesh, become flesh and lived in flesh.
Oh, that ought to attract people. God could've come out of heaven with a full Angel salute if He wanted to. God could've come down a--a full matured man, Angels on both sides, coming down the corridor of heaven sounding the trumpets of heaven. He--He could've done that. He could've come a full man, but He chose to come a baby. He could've been borned in a palace. He could've been created in the heavens if He wanted to. But He chose to come, not to even a bed to be born. He went to a manger, on a manure pile, and over a manure pile He chose to be born. It ought to be attractive. Jehovah crying like a baby, Jehovah playing like a boy, Jehovah toiling like a man, oh, it's a great mystery. It's a super sign to the people. Everybody wanting signs, that's the greatest sign that God ever made, when God become flesh and dwelled among men. A super sign. Surely it would attract the people. But they get carnal, go away, "Oh, yes, I guess that's all right." Oh, it's more than all right. It's God's perfection working, making Himself, crossing His cast, making a tent and living in His tent, stretching out among us and living like we do. Amen. God, here it is, but it don't attract attention. The church gets carnal and bypasses, goes over it, gets away from these great things.
