<TITLE>02. Par 4-7</TITLE>L-4 Today I went into a room where there was a precious man, the father of five little children, lay dying with a great big cancer. And looking at him, I... He said, "The doctor says there's nothing can be done." And he's got a little baby just a few months old; his little wife standing there looking at him and a fine looking little fellow, her husband. And the little baby, I didn't see them. I think they'd come all the way from somewhere.
So just... You've got to feel for those people. I think of that, little children, five of them now to be without a father. That's the work of the devil. So we... I said, "I'm going to take you by faith to God's operating room, and I'm going to take God's operating knife, sharper than a two-edged sword. We're going right down where that devil's a laying, and cut him out with the Word." I think the man went on home. He was... Oh, God is so good. He was my neighbor, right where I'm staying.

L-5 So now, tomorrow morning, the Lord willing, I've been given the privilege over all these fine ministers and teachers to have the Sunday school lesson. And if the Lord willing, I want to speak on, in the morning, "The Restoring Of The Bride Tree." And so, if you're not in your own church, why, we'd be glad to have you out, nine-thirty or whatever time it is in the morning.
And then tomorrow night, we're expecting God to do again the exceedingly abundantly, above all that we could do or think. Then we're going down to Brother Bigby down in South Carolina, for two nights, Monday and Tuesday. And then from there, we'll have to go then home in order to get over to the Cow Palace at the west coast, where we go next.

L-6 But now just before we approach the Word, let's approach the Author while we bow our heads just a moment for prayer. I wonder tonight with our heads bowed, and I trust our hearts are too in His Presence, how many in here has something on your heart you'd want God to remember you? Just lift your hand up and say, "God, remember me." It's almost one hundred percent.
Heavenly Father, it's so good to come to the living God, knowing that He is our great Counselor, the Prince of Peace, the Mighty God, Everlasting Father. And we come in His Name tonight, before the throne of His grace, to ask for all these hands that went up. Down beneath the hand in the heart of the human being You knowed what was there, Father. And it goes to show they have a need and a faith, or they would not raise their hands. But they believe, Lord, that the great unseen One is with us. They believe that You would see their hand and know their request. And I'm sure You did, Lord. And behind that request was a prayer. And I'm laying mine with theirs upon Your altar, and praying, Lord, that You'll answer each and every one of them.

L-7 I pray for all the ministers here, their congregations. And we're giving thanks, Lord, for the testimonies already from that one night of prayer for the sick begin to come in; and the little baby, Lord, oh, a testimony to the physician. Christ is the head Physician. He heals all of our diseases. We're so grateful for that.
Now, heavenly Father, we pray that You'll continue to be with the family, be with all that's been prayed for, and let them just not be nervous and upset; but just wait, and remember that "ask," and then know that it'll be given. God said so. It just can't fail. Grant it, Lord.
Bless Thy Word tonight as we read It, and the context of the Scripture may be given to us in the power and demonstrations of the Holy Spirit.
