<TITLE>02. Par 8-11</TITLE>L-8 This is a nice-built little church. I can just about see everybody. It'd be a fine time--place here for a real healing service, if we'd have one sometime--to have it. I notice way back in the back, I see Sister Evans back there. I don't see Brother Evans. They're also from down in Macon, Georgia, way down in the warm country. They talked to us the other day, and said they were getting even with we Yankees up there. They had nine inches of snow, so they--something to brag about, having all that snow. Did you have a good trip over? Well, that's very fine, Brother Evans.

L-9 Just a little testimony for Brother Evans back there, that I'd like to make it, if it's all right with you, Brother Evans, if it's... How I come to get acquainted with Brother Evans was at the Met up in Philadelphia. Brother Theo Jones--many of you has heard of him--he's a Full Gospel brother, very fine preacher. And we met, and he asked me if I'd come over to the Met with him for a couple nights of service, and that I agreed to do when we was coming from somewhere.
And Brother Leo Mercier and Brother Gene Goad had got acquainted with Brother Evans in some way, and they said, "There's a man wants to meet you on one of the private interviews," said, "from down in Georgia."
And I said, "All right." And my wife and little boy--little Joseph, as many of you remember the Lord showing me six years before he was born... The doctor said it was impossible; he couldn't be; but the Lord said it was going to be. So Joseph came right on just on time. And so, we... He was about two years old then, or three.

L-10 And I remember the morning when we got up in the hotel; Joseph looked over to me when I was getting dressed to go to breakfast with Brother Evans. I'd never met him yet. And I said to my wife, Meda, "You know, honey, that this man that we are going to meet..." I described him; I said--he and his wife. "And I saw a vision of him this morning. He likes to fish, but he's a violator." And I said, "I--I--I see him doing something he oughtn't to do." And I said, "I don't know whether I should tell him or not."
"Well," she said, "you'd better be easy."
And I said, "I will."
And so, little Joseph raised up in the bed. He said, "Daddy, do you know that David's going to have a wreck on his motorcycle?"
And I said, "What's that, son?"
His mother caught it, said, "David..."
David Wood lives next door to me. He was a Jehovah Witness, and his leg had--had infantile paralysis, and drawed his leg up under him. And at one of the meetings his father and mother had him there, and the Lord Jesus revealed all about him, what he was, and told him to stand on his feet; he was made well. And there his leg come right out normal.

L-11 And his father is a contractor. He gave his heart to the Lord Jesus then, and moved over next door to me, and has been living there for the last several years. And the boy, 'less he'd think, he doesn't even know which leg it was that--that was hurt. There's people sitting here tonight who knows the boy. How many of you here knows David Wood? Many of you, sure, that's--that's seen the boy.
And Joseph said, "I was just seeing David get hurt on a motorcycle down the lane near the schoolhouse."
Well, I thought... A few days before that he had told me that he was waiting for his little sister to come home. He was on his velocipede. He said, "Daddy, I seen..." Said, "Is there a Man up there that's got a hand about that big?"
And I said, "I don't know. Why?"
He said, "I looked up," and said, "I was going out towards the road on my velocipede." And said, "I seen a great big hand, looked like Jesus' hand was holding me from going out on the road."
