<TITLE>08. Par 21-23</TITLE>L-21 What was it? Entering in. All at once something happened. I began to feel that presence of love, sympathy for the old man. He jerked out a little beads and begin to holler, "Hail, Mary, mother of God, bless..."
I said, "That's not necessary. Just put it away."
And he said to Brother Espinosa, "Where is the healer? I want to get a hold of him."
And, and I said, "Just tell him to bow his head." I put my arms around the old fellow. I started... I said, "Lord Jesus, this poor old man! I can't give him my shoes, he can't wear them. I can't give him my coat. But, Lord God, You're the only one can help him now. You can give him something that'll save him; that's eyesight. That's what he's craving for."
And no more than I said that, I heard someone holler, "Gloria a Dios!" And there he was; he could see as good as I could, running across the platform just as hard as he could go.
And the next night there was a rick of clothes, old scarves, and aprons, and old coats, and rags, and hats piled up on there, two or three times as long as this here, and about that high. How I ever... how they ever got the right one, I don't know. But what? They'd seen something. Oh, when something happens, something takes place.

L-22 That's the was it was with Mary that morning. Something must have took place when she was thinking about Him, and there He appeared into her presence. It was the same thing with Moses like it was with Mary. He said, "You are going to conceive in your womb and bear a child."
Now, she knowed the Angel's message was Scriptural. I don't care what kind of an angel it was that appeared, if that angel's message is not Scriptural and a promise of God, let it alone. There's been all kinds of angels appearing, everything, and they bring all kinds of messages. If the Angel of the Lord whose servant I am would come... if that angel would come, no matter how much it looked like the Pillar of Fire, how much it looked like the light, if his message didn't bear record with this Word, I'd let it alone and let him be accursed. It has to be in this. Joseph Smith, you know, saw an angel (he said), but it didn't bear record with the Word.
And Mary knew that she'd just read the day before, Isaiah 9:6, that something was about to happen. And she knowed it was on its way then.

L-23 Moses, likewise, when he had give up all the hopes of his theology, and was on the backside of the desert, herding Jethro's sheep, and one day he saw a ball of fire setting in a bush back there. And he come up and took off his shoes as he was bid, and he listened to see what it was. But when he saw that Angel was Scriptural... Said, "I've heard the cries of My people and I've remembered My covenant." He knowed that God made the promise, and it was... that was the Angel that would go with him. "I remember My promise and My covenant. I've seen the sufferings of My people and I've come down to deliver them." Moses knowed it wasn't his any more, 'cause of that "I have come down to deliver them." Oh, that's the good part. "I have come down. You just be a mouthpiece for Me." So he seen it was absolutely Scriptural.
And Mary saw it was absolutely Scriptural, for the day before she'd been reading it, perhaps, in the scroll, as our little drama goes. I tell you, it pays to read God's Word daily now. Jesus said, "Search ye the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life, and they are they which testify of Me." In otherwise, He said, "If I do not the works of My Father (that was supposed to be done when He come), then believe Me not. But if I do the works, though you don't believe Me, believe the works, because they are the ones that's sent of God."
