<TITLE>10. Par 34-36</TITLE>L-34 Now, let us bow our heads again. Just... Someone told me I have two--two main faults: one of them, bragging too much on Jesus; and the other thing is too many times in prayer. I can't overdo that. "I would that men pray everywhere." I love to talk to Him. And I've got the purchase of His Blood here in my hands this afternoon. I must do my best.
Heavenly Father, guide me now. The little church here is offering up prayers for me. Help me. Use the lips of Your servant. And again we pray that--that they'll remember that this week in the services, each night You've been here. You've proved Yourself here. That's why I've been trying to get them, Lord, just to know that it's You. Not touch them, not no way at all, so they couldn't say that it was my hands, Lord. But it's their own faith in them nail-scarred hands, the One we love so well. Not laying my hands, but their faith touching You... But today, Lord, we're going to bring them up in the prayer line. I pray that You'll give each one of them faith.

L-35 And now, I have selected a little Scripture here, a little familiar Scripture to speak on to build the faith of the people, not around conditions of time, as I have been doing, or around some prophetic message, but around Divine healing. For we... They have to be thinking that way in order for the Holy Spirit to move upon them. Now, grant it, Lord.
Help us now, and may Your Presence come into our midst, and may there be such a shaking here this afternoon, that when we go to our different homes, may we say like those who came from Emmaus that day, "Did not our hearts burn within us as he spoke to us along the way?" Grant it, Lord. I commit them all into Your hands now, and myself.
As I said awhile ago, we may never meet again here. Some old people are here. Some young will be gone. I may be gone myself soon. I don't know. We don't know. But perhaps, if I come back in a year, be many wouldn't be here, or there'd be some.
Father, I pray that You'll forgive all of our sin, and set our faces to Calvary with honest sincere men and women before God. Bless us now. As the Word comes forth, may You bring it in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-36 Over in the Scriptures, I want you to read in Saint Matthew's Gospel, the 12th chapter. And I want to begin at the 38th verse.
Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
But he answered and said unto them, An evil and an adulterous generation seek after a sign; and there shall be no sign given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
And the men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
If I was going to take it for a text, in a perhaps a different approach, I'd say this, "Behold, A Greater Than All Of Them Is Here."
