<TITLE>03. Par 14-19</TITLE>L-14 Now, now, this next week I'm to be in Dallas, this coming Friday night at the Voice of Healing convention. If there's any people around there, I'm to be there for that one night to speak in their convention. And I want to speak on the subject of "The Approach to Fellowship," the Lord willing.
And then, perhaps maybe the following Sunday, that'll be this next coming Sunday, if the Lord willing... Now, I'm not too sure. If the Lord willing, I want to come back and speak on the subject that I was supposed to have spoke on today, "The Wind in the Whirlwind." (And I was going to pray for the sick today.) And that's rather a kind of a sharp rebuking to the--to the church for its sins and the... And that's not a very good subject to speak on when you're going to call a prayer line. You got to build people's faith to a--to prayer, and to God, and to having faith. So I told Brother Neville to announce that I would be speaking this morning on another subject building faith in people to God. The other word's rebuking people for--for not keeping the commandments of God. This way it's building people around to have faith in God. You see?

L-16 And back in the prayer room this morning, or the recording room back there, a little old friend of mine, Brother Kidd, eighty some--eighty years old setting here... Many of you remember when I rushed to him the other morning; he was--he was about--been about a year ago, and close on to it now: dying, very hideously ill. And the doctors give him a week to live, or not a week, they... Couldn't live till the morning to bring him down here, about three mornings off. And now, he'd gotten down to a hundred and five or something like that. He said a few moments ago, he's back to a hundred and thirty-two, said he felt like a boy.
Brother Kidd, I wonder if you could just stand up so the people will know who this old preacher is. There he is. Let's say, "Thank the Lord." A man dying with cancer in that--in that condition... He's got a lovely little companion there. I wish she'd stand up too. I just... Sister Kidd, how about you getting up there? Now, she... See how quick she can get up? Better than I can. God bless Brother and Sister Kidd. May God's rich blessings rest upon them. Thank you, sister.

L-18 They struggle through the mountains of Kentucky, up and down the paths of the coal fields, run out, kicked out, and made fun of, persecuted, live on whatever they could: grind up corn they'd find on the tracks somewhere, and live for the Kingdom of God. And eighty years old, preaching the Gospel yet. Now, they got too old to go out, so I pray over prayer cloths and send them to them, and they just--just keep taking them out to hospitals and things like that. People come in and get them. Now, that's really got it in the heart, isn't it? If you can't go out to meet them, you can send them out a prayer cloth like that. The people having faith... That's very fine.

L-19 Brother Roger's in also somewhere in here today, Brother Creech's father-in-law: very dear friend of mine, go into his house just like I--you could go down to Charlie's and Nellie's and them down there now, and down in Kentucky in the... And used to go down there and hunt all the time with him. And here not long ago, about thirteen months ago the doctor opened him up: with cancer, and said, "He's gone."
And I thought, "My precious old friend..." A veteran of the First World War, a real gallant man, his family... And I baptized him in the Name of Jesus Christ many years ago for the remission of his sins, knowing then that he was placed into the--the Body of Christ and was ready to go to meet God. I thought, "My precious brother has--going to move on now." It was right after that vision--before that vision come to me about heaven. And then I went down to see him, and in the room come a rainbow. God changed things. That's been thirteen months ago and he's still here today, eating.
