<TITLE>04. Par 33-40</TITLE>L-33 Then my meeting comes up in Phoenix, in January. It's the annual meeting there for the Christian Business Men. And about a week or ten days before that, I'm going to try to--to rent that big... The Jesus' Name people; it used to be Brother Garcia, and the--the Spanish brother there had a wonderful, big place there. They've just built it. It'll seat several thousand people, brand new, and their congregation is very small. They told me I could rent it any time I wanted to. Instead of just taking a--a panoramic, just around through the valley, church to church, I think I'll just concentrate the thing all in one big union meeting, you see, and then have it there.

L-34   And then we can rent the temple. We're going now to find out if we can, and then have the Christian Business Men's Convention. Then, until the overseas gets straightened up, we're going to try to set meetings down through the South, for January, and February, and March, through the Southlands. And then--then go... 'cause, if we start now and go into Africa... See, this Christmas time, to them, is the fourth of July. See, it's--it's rainy and bad, and you can't get in there in that time, so the best time to go in there is later on. And then we want to start, if we can, in Norway, and come down around the world, and work in to Africa, to end up down in there, the Lord willing.

L-35 But pray for us now. And we love you, and you know that. So we're expecting the exceeding abundantly, above all that we could do, or even think the Lord could do.

L-36   And we believe, tonight, there'll be a great healing service. I believe there'll be a... I won't speak but just a little bit, 'cause we got communion tonight. And so about twenty or thirty minutes, then we'll have the prayer line, and--and then immediately after that, we'll have--have the communion. And you are welcome to stay with us; we'll be glad. We don't have a--a closed communion. It's to every believer, every believer.

L-37 And before I read the Scripture, I wonder if we'd bow our heads just a minute. I'm going to ask my good friend, Brother Lee Vayle, if he'll lead us in a word of prayer, that God will bless His Word. Brother Vayle, will you do that for us?
[Brother Lee Vayle now prays--Ed.] Amen. Grant it, Lord. Grant it, Lord. Grant it, Lord. Yes, Lord. Amen.

L-38   Now solemnly, reverently we approach the Word. Now I wish to read, this morning, from Exodus the 12th chapter, and beginning with the 12th verse, the 12th and 13th verse, inclusive. And listen close now. And then before communion tonight, read the 12th chapter of--of Exodus, the entire chapter; for just the 11th verse here is the getting ready for the journey, and the communion before the journey. And we want to approach this very reverently now. Now the 12th verse of the 12th chapter.
For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.
And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the house where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

L-39 May the Lord bless His Holy Word!

L-40   Now I want to take a text out of there, just one little five-lettered word: Token. Token! I want to speak on the word, or teach this Sunday school lesson, on the word of a "token." The Bible said here, "And the blood shall be a token unto you." And we want to use the word "token."
