<TITLE>11. Par 98-108</TITLE>L-98 If there's condemnation in your life, straighten that first. See? If you got condemnation in your... I... or you might have Oral Roberts and--and a dozen more people who has faith to come here and pray over you, and jump up and down, and pour oil on you by the gallons, it--it still it--it won't move. That's right.

L-99 What falls off from Oral's meetings to that? I catch them in the prayer line. You hear Him say, "You was prayed for before. A man with dark hair, kind of big fellow, big jaw." That's Oral Roberts. See? "And that was at a certain city; called certain, certain thing."

L-100 "Yes, that's right." See?

L-101 "You was prayed for by such-and-such a man." See, like that. "But here it is. Here is your trouble." See? "Go make that thing right. Go out there and confess that sin to your husband, to your wife. Go do this thing." It'll never do you any good, no matter who you pray for, till you make that right. Condemnation's in your heart, and God will not come into that heart condemned. See? God don't dwell in that; you got to make it right. Then when you do, you must have faith. If everything's right, you must have faith and believe it. Don't be 'fraid.

L-102   In the Book of Job, It says here, "Job feared." And what he feared, it actually happened. What brought it? His fear. That's what made it happen. His faith would have kept him from it, but his fear brought him... brought it to him. He was scared it was going to happen, and it did happen. Now, if been--he knowed it wouldn't happen, it wouldn't happen. See what I mean?

L-103 If you're afraid when you come by the prayer line, "Maybe I just haven't got the faith sufficient"; it'll never happen, don't worry. See? But if you know it's going to happen, it'll happen. See? See, it's a substance of something. Job had a fear that these things would come upon him, and they did. If you have a fear that your disease is going to leave you... or won't leave you, it won't. If you have a faith, that it will.

L-104 You ask any medical doctor. The first thing he'll try to get you to do, is to have confidence in the medicine he's giving you. If you haven't got no confidence in it, you better leave it alone. See? Sure! What is it then? It's faith that does the healing; it's faith that does it all the time.

L-105   Peter, he was doing all right till be got scared. The Word told him, he could walk on the water. He was scared first, he thought it was a--a ghost, and he said, "Lord, if it be You, bid me come to You on the water."

L-106 Said, "Come on." Now, that's just the same as James 5:14, same as Mark 16. The same God said It, said, "Come on." And so he started walking. He done all right, got down out of the ship, started walking on...

L-107 There was a storm on the sea, you know; great, whitecap waves, bigger than these hills around here, the foam breaking on top of them; terrific, maybe fifteen, twenty feet foam, the whitecaps breaking. And that was a terrific thing for him to ask, "If it be You, Lord,..." See, He looked like a... there looked like a shadow or a spirit. He said, "If it's You, bid me come to You on the water."

L-108 Jesus said, "Come on."
