<TITLE>09. Par 28-30</TITLE>L-28 Your walking, your talking, your business, your associating, and everything, put the Word of God first. Say, "I believe I'll go tonight, and this little dance just won't hurt anybody." Could you take THUS SAITH THE LORD with you? See, see?
"I believe if I could pull this little deal that... Oh, it's just a little bit shady." But could you say, "THUS SAITH THE LORD" with it? See, always take Him first, keep fortified, for He is our fortress.
It's strange, but do you know you have to ignore before... In order to believe the devil's lie, you have to ignore and deny God's truth first, before you can believe the devil's lie? Did you ever think of that? You have to deny the truth first before you could believe a lie: right--have to deny it.

L-29 Eve got from behind it and lost the battle. As soon as Eve... Satan was standing out there shooting his targets. She said, "But the Lord said..." And then he shot again. She said, "But the Lord said..." So then he shot again another way. "But the Lord said...
But Satan raised up back there, said, "But wait just a minute. If the Lord did say that, let me just tell you something. You see you're not wise like God; you don't know right from wrong. But if... Listen, wouldn't you love to be wise like God?"
Why, Eve said, "Yes, I--I believe I would." Maybe something like that. "I believe I would like to just know all the wisdom of God. I'd like to know what's right and wrong. I don't know it."
"Well, I tell you..."
Now, she said, "But--but the Lord said..."
"Oh, but surely you know He's a good God. He won't do that." See? Right there, she broke the hole through so he could shoot. Right there she made the wrong stop, right there--stopped a little bit.

L-30 Now, let me say something to you Christians down here. Don't you never stop one second for the devil. Don't stop to reason it out. When you start to reason it, the devil comes right in. You cannot reason God; you cannot understand God; you've got to just believe God. See? I can't explain God. Nobody can. I can't explain many things. But the only thing, I just believe it because He said so. Now, there's none of us can explain it. Don't try to explain it.
Don't get with these unbelievers that say, "Well, now look. Your pastor out there, Junior, I hear he was praying for the sick. Now, you're all crazy down there. There's no such a thing as Divine healing."
Say, "All right, there isn't for you then; you're an unbeliever." Just walk right on. See? It's just for believers. See? Don't...
"Well, you all say you got the Holy Ghost. There's no such a thing as the Holy Ghost."
Say, "It isn't for you then; it is for me." Just go on. See? See, don't try to reason it. It hasn't got no reasonings. You just believe it.
