<TITLE>06. Par 19-22</TITLE>L-19 But see, the Lord knowed that I was kind of a little, well, uneducated fellow. So He could just let me go down and catch them, that the other brothers don't get, I suppose.
And I held a meeting, just recently in a church that seated twenty people. I know it was pathetic, but I did. But therefore... See? When the Lord wants me to go overseas... Say, "How do you do that?" Somehow or another somebody comes and gives me the money to go. And so... And if I have to go to a little place, I ain't under no obligation but what I can go. So I just... Where He wants me to go, He just takes care of me. And I just live by faith, and walk by faith, and where He... Whatever what He wants me to do anything, He always provides a way.

L-20 I preached to five hundred thousand at one time. And I've preached to, I've preached to five or six at one time, held a meeting where ten or fifteen would be setting. In some of the sweetest meetings I ever had was in a--a prayer meeting in a home somewhere. That's right. God can come to a little group or a big group. It makes no difference the size with God. "Wherever two or three are gathered, I'll be in their midst." That's it.
Now, before we approach the Word, we want to approach the Author. Anybody ever know Booth Clibborn? Now, many of you get... William Booth Clibborn wrote that famous song, "Down From His Glory," personal friend of mine.
And he preaches the Gospel in seven different languages. He's just so smart. That's old man General Booth's grandson. And He's an Englishmen. And--and he... Booth... He may be setting here. So he's quite a fellow, a real theologian.
And one day, we got kind of crossed up with something, or another. And so, I said, "Well, Brother Booth, how could that every be, being this is that?"

L-21 And I... Now, Brother Booth, if you're here, I don't mean to raise the subject again. But he was tied. And he couldn't have no place to go. So he just... I just let him jump, and he jumped right in his own trap. You know, just like, give a cow enough rope and it'll hang itself. So he got out on the end of the limb and he couldn't get back.
And I said, "What now, Brother Booth?"
He said, "You just don't know your Bible."
I said, "But I know the Author real well." I said, that's it, and I said, "He will teach me the rest of it."
So if we don't know the Word, let's know the Author real well. And He won't let us go wrong. He will guide us somehow to the right. So let's speak to Him now before we approach His Word. As we bow our heads.

L-22 Our heavenly Father, we are grateful for the opportunity again, this side of eternity to present Jesus Christ to an audience that's waiting.
And now, I've often thought how--what I would do if I had a--a charger, or a glass in my hand, and in that glass held one drop of the literal Blood of Jesus. How I would embrace that to my heart, and how the adorations that I'd have for that, would pour forth, as tears would stream down my cheeks, that I have in my hand one drop of the literal Blood of the Lord Jesus: that Blood Who saved me. And yonder when the doctors gave me just three more minutes to live, better than thirty years ago, it saved me and it healed me.
O God, how that I have seen You, through the years take tens of thousands times thousands of sick people that our physicians had given up and make them healthy and well people to continue their life. That Blood is what did it. And I would think how I would hold That. But tonight in Your Own Word I hold a greater than one drop of the Blood. I hold the purchase of that Blood before me.
He loved His people more that He loved His own Life. So He gave His Life's Blood to purchase this people. Then Lord, how should I approach them, a greater than the Blood itself, the purchased price of the Blood.
