<TITLE>10. Par 29-31</TITLE>L-29 But "expectancy," that's a great thing, to expect something. You usually get what you expect. Some people come to the meeting and say, "Well, I didn't--didn't expect to get anything out of it." Well, they won't. But those who expect to get something, God will give them their expectations, if their doing it reverently and in the fear of God.
Now, always to find out something first is to find whether it's the will of God or not. And then if it's the will of God, then your object--objective to it, and then your motive in doing it. If it's the will of God, and your objective is right, and your motive is right, it's got to happen. There's just no way to keep it from happening.
So first find the will, if it's God's will. And then, what--what's your objective in doing it? What's...? If it's selfish, you'll--you'll never--you'll--you'll never get it done, that's all. It's got to be real clean and clear before God or it just won't happen. That's all. It's... You got to always keep that on your mind, that it's got to be clean and clear. Your cups must be clean and clear before God or God cannot work with you.

L-30 Now, men of all times has always that's heard God... And wherever God is, supernatural is; because He is a supernatural God, working supernatural things. You believe that?
Now, in the Old Testament they had a way of finding out whether a message was right or not. Now, after the Levitical priesthood they had what they called the "Urim Thummim." And that was the breastplate that Aaron had here. He had the twelve tribal stones in the breastplate. And they hung that on the corner or the post in the temple. And then, when the prophet prophesied or the dreamer told his dream, and when he was telling it, if that lights become a conglomeration of lights, like a rainbow reflecting off of that Urim Thummim, was showing that the supernatural was there, then that prophet was telling the truth or that dreamer's dream was right.
However, no matter how real it sounded (Now, keep this in mind.), no matter how real it sounded, if that Urim Thummim didn't make the supernatural light, they could not receive it, because it wasn't God. So when you see anyone preaching the Gospel that God doesn't come down and confirm that to be right, you leave it alone, 'cause it's not right.

L-31 God still remains God. He lives today; He's just as much alive as He ever was. He--He's God. Now--now, when that priesthood was done away with, then we got the new priesthood. And now, there has a new--new Urim Thummim, that also, with this priesthood--and that is God's Word. God's Word is God's Urim Thummim. Then if God promises anything in the Bible, and you can accept it with all your heart and believe it to be so, you'll see the supernatural of God's Word take place and manifest the thing that you have believed for.
No matter what it is, if you believe it... The Word of God is a seed; it's sowed in the human heart, and if there's nothing there to--to hinder it... just like when God makes a decision, it's His ultimatum. And if you have an ultimatum that God's just the same, when them two comes together, something's got to happen. It just can't keep from happening. See? And if your ultimatum is the same as God's, then something must take place.
