<TITLE>09. Par 27-31</TITLE>L-27 Most gracious God, in the Name of Jesus Christ we come to Thee with humble, contrite spirits, broken up, Lord, knowing that we're ready for the molding, as the prophet went down to the potter's house to be molded. And Father, we desire this morning in our hearts, that You will break us so that we'll be molded into different characters, characters that will represent Jesus Christ. Take my foolish heart, Lord. Take my stammering words and break them to pieces, Lord. Break my own self will out and make a new person in Christ. Grant it, Lord. That's the desire of our hearts. That's why we're here.
And, Lord, while we're speaking, You over this altar, where this little Jewish brother who believes in You, Brother Michaelson, I--I pray for him, Father. I pray that You'll bless him. And we're thankful for the opportunity to be here in this Christian synagogue.

L-28 Bless us together now, as we just wait a few moments on reading the Word. Bless It to our thoughts. Bless our services, Lord. God, You know our hearts. And I just want to be knitted with one heart, and one soul, and one purpose, that is, with my brethren here, that here in this dark, dismal, land of this twentieth century, down here in 1962, near the turn of the century again, the time is up.
And over here on the West Coast, where civilization has traveled from east to west, and we realize that it can't go no further now. We go back east again when we leave this coast. And as civilization has come, we realize the sun travels east to west. And there was a time when the S-o-n came upon the Eastern people, and He showed great light, and signs that He was the Messiah. And He promised...

L-29 The prophet said there would be a day that could not be called day nor night. We've had this dismal, foggy day of two thousand years, almost, of just being able to believe enough light to get around by, and knowing that He was the Son of God, and build us a church, and an organization, and try to hold brothers and sisters together, and cause them to live right... But, Lord, the fog is clearing away, and there's coming a Light on the western people, the same S-o-n with the same signs, the same Gospel, a restoration.
You promised in the last days that there would come forth the message that would restore the faith of the children back to the fathers. O God, let us return to that original day of Pentecost. Let us come back to that great faith that was once delivered to the saints.

L-30 May the great Bride tree of God, that the palmerworm has eaten down, bring forth in the top of it the fruit that the evening Lights will ripen for the coming of the Son of God. Grant it, Lord. Help us as we pull together for this purpose.
We commit ourselves to You. We are Yours. Do with us, Lord, as You see fit. We commit ourselves this morning in this synagogue into Your hands, Lord. And may your great purpose be achieved in our lives as we give ourselves wholly to You, not as Samson. Samson gave his strength, but he never give his heart. God, may our heart, our strength, our all, our all be given to You. Make it mighty, Lord. Multiply it for the Kingdom of God's sake. We ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-31 In the 16th Psalm, just for a way of reading, the last verse:
Thou will shew me the path of life: and in thy presence is fulness of joy, at thy right hand there is pleasure forevermore.
And now, you know I wouldn't try to preach. I would just like to talk to you a minute, or I say for instance, about fifteen, twenty minutes.
David here was speaking of life. "Thou will show me the path of life." Did you notice it? "Will You show me? or, Could You show me? I hope You show me; "Thou will show me."
I believe that every one that God has called will hear and will come. Now, I believe that that's what we are facing now in our meetings. We can only sow the seed. Some will fall by the wayside; some will fall one way, and some fall another. But some will fall on good ground. That is right. "Show me the path of life."
