<TITLE>18. Par 125-133</TITLE>L-125 David said, "You mean to tell me you'll let that happen?" Said, "This little slingshot..." He went after that lion (What?) and--and killed it, and went after the bear and killed it. He said, "How much more will God give me that boasting Philistine out there that says the days of miracles is past?"
He laughed at him; he said, "I'll take you on the end of this weaver's needle spear, hang you up, and let the birds eat your flesh." He could do it.
Saul told him, said, "That man's a..." Why, his fingers is fourteen inches long. He said, "Why, that man is a warrior from his youth, and you're nothing but a ruddy little boy."
Oh, but he said, "I got something to tell you. I got something you don't know about."
"Why, you're nothing..." His brother said, "Get on back home. You're naughty. I'll have pappy give you a whipping when you get back."

L-130 What'd he say? He said, "I was herding. Your servant, my father, I was herding his sheep out there one day. I trust in the Lord God. And a lion came in and took one of the lambs, and I went after him." Why? He was given a charge (Right.) by his father. "And I knocked him down. And when he raised up, I slew him, 'cause I was left with a charge."
Oh, minister brother, we're left with a charge. A lion comes in and gets one of His servants and takes it out; I'm coming with a slingshot this morning, a slingshot of prayer of faith shall save the sick, and God shall raise him up. What He said. We're coming after him to bring that lamb back to the fold. We need you; every Christian, we need every one of you. We need you; we got to have you. Father's give us a charge; let's go get it. Keep charge.
He said, "And if He could do that for that sheep, how much more standing here defying the armies of the living God... I'm ashamed of my brother and all the rest of them," he said, as much to say. "I'm ashamed of them, your weakness."

L-133 I'm ashamed of my ministerial group someday when I hear them stand and coincide, side up with the unbelievers in saying, "Oh, there's no such a thing. There's not... You--you... We don't expect those things to happen."
Peter said, on the day of Pentecost, "The promise is unto you and to your children, and to your children's children, to them that's far off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call." If He's still calling, He's still pouring out the Holy Ghost. If the Holy Ghost is still living in you, It's got to live the same life It did back there in Christ Jesus.
If you see a branch come up, and it puts forth a apple, well, the next one's not going to be a pear and the next one a plum. If it is, it's grafted. That's right. But if the original root of the tree puts out another branch, it'll be an apple. So today we got a lot of organizations and denominations that's been grafted. Them trees will live. Yes, sir.
