<TITLE>15. Par 63-67</TITLE>L-63 Now, and we find out then, that in this great time, God moving, the whole nation blooming into one great, glorious, thing... Why, you know, it didn't only stay in that nation, but it went to other nations, nation by nation.
They didn't have television then. They'd have polluted the world like they have now with it. Everybody staying home on Wednesday night to see, "We Love Sucy," or some kind of a silly thing like that... Christians... That shows what kind of a spirit is in people, when they love that kind of a Hollywood tommyrot, filth and dirt: married several times, living out there like dogs, and then come around and--this stuff. And then people stay home from prayer meeting. It shows where their heart's at. That's the reason there can't be a--a revival. That's right.

L-64 However, that's your pastor's place. See? He tells you that. Listen. I'm just telling you too, so you'll know my part. Believe of it too. I believe the same thing. Yes, sir. Oh, God, What we need is a revival, coming all the way from the pulpit to the janitor. Stir it up, an old fashion, backwoods, sky-blue, God-sent Pentecostal revival. That's right. Not whitewashed, but washed white... That's right. Not saying, talk about the glory of God, but the God of glory revealing the glory of God. That's--that's what we need in--in the church today.

L-65 Notice, that great age of Solomon, how it went on: how glorious. Other peoples begin to tell others. And they traveled then by caravan, and so they come through, a group of camels going into another country. And they'd go down in another country and say, "Say, I'm telling you, that Israel, you never seen such in your life. They've got a revival going on up there; the God of glory is among them. And they've took that man with that great gift and made him their king. And God is honoring everything he does, just perfect."

L-66 You know, it finally reached plumb down to the utmost parts of the earth, to Sheba. That's a long ways down there, way down below the Sahara desert. And there's a little queen down there. You know, somebody come by and told her about it, and she just couldn't wait till the next caravan come.
"Did you hear? Did you come through Palestine?"
"Yes."
"Is it so?"
"Oh, it's just... I went and seen it. It's marvelous."
Faith cometh by hearing the Word of God. Her little heart begin to hunger. See, what was it? The Light flashed on that seed, though she wasn't a Jew. She was a heathen, but she was ordained to Eternal Life. She heard it. Others might've heard it and paid no attention to it. "Oh, nonsense. Bunch of holy-rollers."
But she believed it. There was something on the inside of her said, "That sounds awful good."

L-67 Next time another caravan come through, "Did you pass through Palestine? Tell me."
"Oh, wait. I know what you are going to ask me. Them people are one heart, one accord, the whole nation. And God is working with them. They've got a man up there that's got a gift of discernment. You never seen anything like it: God working with them."
She didn't know what discernment was. She was a pagan. "What do you mean by that?"
"It means that the God of all wisdom comes down in a man and reveals the secrets of the people to him." Oh, what a wonderful thing that was. Her heart begin to hunger.
