L-1 Let us just remain standing for a moment and bow our heads and hearts before God. And while we have our heads and hearts bowed, I wonder if there would be requests tonight that you'd want God to remember you in a certain manner and for a certain thing. If there is, just raise up your hand to Him like that. Now, He understands. He knows every move. He's infinite. Now, just keep that in your mind while we pray.

L-2 Heavenly Father, we deem this one of the greatest privileges of our life is to come before the purchase of Your Blood, the church that's been borned again of the Spirit of God. And tonight, while we are assembled together in the Name of the Lord Jesus... It was told us by Him, that wherever two or more was gathered in His Name, He would be in the midst of us. Now, it has to be so. He promised it.
And then we're taught that as the day begins to approach to the end, that we should not forsake the assembling ourselves together, as some who have not faith; but we are to assemble ourselves together. And we are taught also that we set in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, being baptized into His body by one Spirit. Then we are with Him, raised with Him in His resurrection, and in His Presence, knowing that He ever lives to make intercessions. We thank Thee for this.

L-3 And now tonight, Lord, there was hands that went up. You know what was beneath that hand in the heart. They're holding that request upon their heart now. God, hear and answer prayer for them. We thank Thee because we have the promise, and the promise... And faith is the assurance with that promise that it shall be granted to them. Save every lost soul, Lord; bring back every backslider; heal every sick person, Lord. Get glory to Thyself.
Laying before us here now is handkerchiefs, cloths, Bibles. Now, we're taught in the Bible that they took from the body of Saint Paul handkerchiefs and aprons. Unclean spirits went out of the people, diseases was... They were healed. Now, we know that we're not Saint Paul, but You're still the same God, the same Jesus.

L-4 And also, we were told one time where Israel was on its road to the promised land, the great church of God called out of Egypt. And on its road, right in the path of duty the Red Sea cut them off from the land. God looked down through that Pillar of Fire with angry eyes. Something was standing in His children's way, to keep them from the promise. The sea got scared. It rolled back its waves and its water, and Israel crossed over on dry land.
Now, You're the same God that was with Moses, the same Pillar of Fire, the same God. Now, when You look upon these tokens, Lord, when they're laid upon the sick people... God, not through the Pillar of Fire but through the Blood of Jesus, look down and know that by His stripes they were healed.
You said in your Word, "Above all things I would that you would prosper in health." And may the power of Satan that's cut them off from that good health, may he get scared and move away. And may they cross over into that land of health and strength, and live happy here serving God. Grant it, Lord. Come tonight in great power. Move upon us as we humble our hearts before Thee. In the Name of Jesus Christ we ask it. Amen. Be seated.
