<TITLE>06. Par 18-21</TITLE>L-18 Most gracious and holy Father, Who brought again from the dead our blessed Lord, and has presented Him to us as a High Priest, ever living to make intercessions upon our confession of what He has done for us, setting tonight at the throne of God at the right hand of the Majesty, a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities... We are approaching Thy holiness tonight, Lord, and Thy throne of grace through His all-sufficient Name that He gave to us. "Ask the Father anything in My Name, I'll do it."
Now, heavenly Father, there are many who have been waiting this week, setting in the building under anticipation, waiting for this night to come. They say that hundreds has been turned from the building. Father God, I pray that You will make Yourself so clear to these people, that there will not be one feeble person in our midst.

L-19 O great Holy Spirit, seeing the hour that we're living, the shadows are falling, the end is at hand; and, God, I pray that You'll let Him circumcise every heart, take away every unbelief and every shadow of doubt. And we pray that He will manifest Himself so vividly among us tonight, that there'll not be one person, young or old, but what will see that He is here. And may they embrace Him as their Saviour and as their Healer.
May the unsaved be saved, and may the sick be healed. And those who are setting--setting in the regions of the shadows of death, may great light spring upon them. May they rise and go home and be well, that the glory of God might be known on the west coast; that it might be said to their children, and their loved ones, and them around about, that Jesus still lives.

L-20 Now, Father, we are taught in the Bible that one day, a day after the resurrection, or the same day, that there was one of His disciples whose name was Cleopas, and he and his friend was walking to a city called Emmaus, disgusted and was going back. There's many tonight in that condition, that thinks that the church has failed. And it has. But Thou has not failed.
And on the road there come One stepping out from the side of the road, and begin to speak to them and explain the Scriptures to them, when He asked their sadness and their defeat. He made as if He'd pass on by, but they constrained Him to come in. When He got them inside and closed the door, then He did something just like He did before His crucifixion; and immediately they knew it was Him. He vanished out of their sight by some back door somewhere.
Lighthearted and light-footed they ran quickly back to Jerusalem, telling the people that truly Jesus was still alive. And they spoke among themselves and said, "Did not our hearts burn within us as He talked to us along the way?"

L-21 Father, I pray that You'll let Him step out from these aisles tonight into every heart, talk to us in the next few minutes and then show Himself. May He stand on this platform among us tonight and show Himself that He's the same Jesus. Then may the sick rush home quickly, saying, "Did not our hearts burn within us as the Word went forth? It was strange, but something was talking to me all the time." Grant it, Father, and we'll praise Thee for it as long as we live, and always remember it, because we're sincerely asking it in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Now, for just a few minutes I would just like to call your attention to Saint Matthew 14:27:
But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good courage; it is I; be not afraid.
