<TITLE>18. Par 194-205</TITLE>L-194   And she was crying. And I put my hand upon the wet blanket, and it raining then. I said, "Heavenly Father, this little woman, no doubt in my mind but what You're answering her." I said, "I saw the vision, that You know to be truth, of a little baby. I'm only accepting it by faith that it's this baby. I don't know the woman nor the baby. But, something, You work on both ends of the line." I lay my hands upon it. And when I did, it kicked and screamed just as loud as it could scream. The mother jerked the blanket off of it, and there it was, alive, in her arms.

L-195 I said, "Brother Espinosa, don't mark that down, but send some good loyal person." And she was telling it in Mexican, that the doctor pronounced her baby dead, with pneumonia, that morning about eight or nine o'clock. And here it was after ten, that night. And I said, "Send and get a written, documented statement from the doctor, that pronounced it dead."

L-196 And the Mexican doctor wrote a statement and signed it, "I pronounced the baby dead, no respiration or nothing, in my office this morning at nine o'clock."

L-197 And here it is, ten o'clock that night. And the next morning, the baby was in the doctor's office to be examined, "Normally, again." Why? Because the little woman was persistent.

L-198   Faith knows no defeat. If there's five thousand standing there in the place, nothing takes the place. Her church could turn her out, her neighbors could laugh. But a God that could open the blind eyes of a man, the night before, could raise her baby, because He's the same God yesterday, today, and forever.

L-199 And if this group of people here tonight, crumb searchers, if you are; the very God that brought you here, that could lead you to a place like this, the God that saved you, the God that could fill you with the Holy Ghost; that same God can wipe away every bit of the sickness and sorrow, whatever it is, in your hearts tonight, if you believe that. Persistent, perseverant, reach and grab that little crumb of faith now, say, "Lord, thank You for it. Here I come."
The neighbor will say tomorrow, "You're not healed."

L-200 Say, "Oh, but I am. I am. I found a crumb last night down at the Foursquare church. Something anchored within me. Nothing is going to stop me, anymore. I have it."
Let us bow our heads just a minute.

L-201   Are you needing a crumb tonight? Could you take the crumb and be persistent with it?

L-202 The little crumb of faith that come to a--a little, Gentile Greek woman, never seen a miracle in her life, a heathen idolater, but she heard that it'd been worked on someone else. She had never seen it, but she believed it. And all the disappointments she had, yet, upon the basis of something in her heart telling her that her child could be healed, you know, when she got home she found her daughter laying upon a bed. The spell had gone from her. Not only for herself, but for her daughter who wasn't present.

L-203 Do you need a crumb tonight? If you do, would you just raise up your hand. And say, "Lord, just a crumb is all I ask."

L-204   O Heavenly Father, look at those crumb-seeking Gentiles. Times hasn't changed yet, Lord. They've heard. They've heard that You heal the sick. They've heard that You fill with the Holy Spirit. You give rest to the weary. O God, grant that these there tonight is crying like that precious little lady of many days ago, "Lord, truly we're not worthy to receive the blessings like thy people, Israel, but we only seek a crumb that falls from the Master's table."

L-205 And tonight we have showed the great Food that You've fed Your Church. And tonight we have not only crumbs, but we're invited to the table. We don't really have to take the crumbs, but we're glad to get them. But we're invited to the table, tonight. "Jesus has His table spread where all the saints of God are fed. He invites His chosen people to come and dine." Grant, tonight, Father, that each one who has a need, that need will be met.
