<TITLE>01. Par 1-6</TITLE>62-1122, Return And Jubilee, Life Tabernacle, Shreveport, LA, 103 min
L-1 Thank you, brother. You be seated. [Tongues and interpretation are given--Ed.] Amen, amen. Praise be to God. [Tongues and interpretation are given--Ed.] Amen. What a grand thing it is tonight to hear this said just before we--'fore I come to speak to you: God promising us that He will give us a fresh anointing. That's why we have assembled here. That's why this meeting is called.

L-2 I certainly deem this such a grand privilege to be here tonight to assemble with this church again, these worshippers, with my good friend, Brother Moore, his lovely wife, and their family, and all the families of the Lord that has gathered out for this time of fellowship, jubilee. We gather around the Word of God and around the praises and worship of His people.

L-3 And I certainly miss something of not being here to hear our brother speak of the outpouring at the beginning of--the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Azusa Street in Los Angeles. And I sent the tape man ahead, Brother Sothmann, which is here somewhere to tape the message this morning so that I'd be able to get to hear it. And we drove last night through the storm, trying to make it, but we missed it, and we got so tired, just had to stop at Little Rock about, 'tween twelve and one o'clock and sleep awhile. I overslept this morning. So was kinda tired, we been pretty busy, and getting ready now for overseas and so forth. So we was just a little tired. And--but, I'll know I will enjoy hearing this patriarch's message on that time.

L-4 One time in--up in Canada I was privileged to hear Brother Moore read the story. And I've always wondered where that book went. I wanted to read that, about the heartaches and cries of those people in the early outpouring of the Holy Spirit. I believe one of them lost a little child or something, had to--didn't even have a casket to put it in, had to go saw some boards and make a casket. And, oh, my, how they was rejected by the people. But yet, with an undying faith, moved on to see the great church today, that it has produced.
Goes to show what faith can do. I think if a person ever is sure in their heart and has something that faith can anchor on, they should never cease. No matter how many times they're defeated, they should continue on.

L-5 You know, there was a man one time who wanted to write a--thought he could write comic strips. No one would accept his--his ability. And finally he begin to write some little editorials for a church. And he got out in a--a little old rat infested garage and tried to write some stories. And no one would receive them. And every newspaper turned them down, and said he didn't have the ability, but yet he believed he did. And he continued on and on.
And he begin to notice the peculiarity of a certain little mouse that was in the garage, and there's where the story of Mickey Mouse was born. And Walt Disney now, millions and millions of dollars that his company, or whatever he has, is worth. Because he believed that there's something in him, pulsating.
And if a man can do that by the natural, what about a man that's been pulsated by the Holy Spirit, that believes that God wants His achievements to be brought to people, and will stay with the Scripture.

L-6 I'm looking forward this week to a revival in my own soul. I told my wife yesterday when I'd heard some good news, and I rushed over and threw my arms around her and screamed, "I'm free" and went out into the room and started weeping. And I said, "You know, I--I--I want God to give me a revival in myself." I said, "For about five years I've been choked down under a--a great burden that's been released now and..." And I thought, "Oh, my, I'm going down to Brother Jackson's have all the people pray for me that I'll have a revival down in myself." I really need it. I think we all feel a whole lot that way.
