<TITLE>03. Par 16-20</TITLE>L-16 I was talking to a sister who's been up here visiting this week, Sister Palmer. She said... Wanted to know how I ever lived in this country, it's... You can just come in here and get out... Every time I hit the valley I get sick just as soon as I get in. It's a--it's just real unhealthy in the valley here; we know that. But God's got a lot of children down in here, and so one of these days...

L-17 I'm seeking the Lord now to find out a real straight message from God. See? And I... By God's help I just aim to hold on till He comes, that's till He makes some statement to me, for I feel that there ought to be... There's something that's fixing to happen around here. And I want to know what it is, and I want to know directly from God, so that I can say it's THUS SAITH THE LORD. See? And then--then you can--you--the people then will know that it--it isn't me.
So I want to try to make it so that--or hear from Him first; 'cause if He puts His words in a--in a person, well, then it's not the person any more, it's Him. Then if the man's saying it in himself, then it won't amount to anything anyhow. But if he's--the Word of the Lord is in the man, it'll come forth, and then it'll be--it'll be just exactly right. That was what we were commissioned in the Bible over about the 20th chapter of Deuteronomy. I believe it said, "Watch, and if one speaks in the Name of the Lord, and it doesn't come to pass, then don't pay any attention to that person. (See?) But if they speak it, and it comes to pass, then you better hear it (See?), because it's coming from God."

L-19 That's how God has. He's got His regular program laid out here in the Bible--we know how to read that out, but there's certain things that--that to the church and to the time and things that He hasn't got written here in the Bible, so He puts His voice into a person, and they speak it forth (See?)--speak it forth. So then, the way to judge that person is find out whether it happens the way they say it. Then if it does, then keeps happening that way, well, then we know that comes from the Lord. Then we--then we have confidence then to make ready for the things that's a-coming.

L-20 I want to read two or three places in the Scriptures this morning, and I want to read first out of the Book of Exodus and I believe about the 4th chapter of the--Exodus to begin with.
And now, I might announce while you're getting ready to read these Scriptures, I might announce what I want to speak to you, what the Lord put upon my heart to talk about this morning. I don't know what He'll do with it to the people, may be directed to one person here, maybe somebody out in the tape land, somewhere else, but I want to announce this morning...
