<TITLE>20. Par 188-197</TITLE>L-188   Now let's go down to the house of God, in our heart, the altar, let's look up and see what Jesus looks like, which is the Word. And then we can answer, "Here am I, send me, Lord. Send me to the house, to be a better wife. Send me to school, to be a better teen-age girl. Send me to school, to be a better teen-age boy. Send me to the pulpit, a different minister. Send me to my business, a different businessman." When you see your Example, Jesus Christ!

L-189 He said, "Here am I, send me," after his humility, after he seen the order, how God puts His servant together. How He commissions him; before He commissions him, he has to be humble, reverent, and in action. And therefore when he seen that, the cleansed Isaiah said, "Here am I, send me."

L-190   Let us bow our heads just a moment. [A brother speaks in another tongue. A sister gives an interpretation--Ed.]
When the coal of Fire had touched the prophet,
Making him as pure as pure can be,
When the Voice of God said "Who will go for us?"
Then he answered, "Master, here, send me."
Speak, my Lord, speak, my Lord,
Speak, and I'll be quick to answer Thee;
Speak, my Lord, speak, my Lord,
Speak, and I will answer, "Lord, send me."

L-191 [Brother Branham begins humming, "Speak, My Lord."--Ed.] Think of it now, teen-ager, while they're humming that song. Think of it, minister, businessman, housewife. We're down at the house of the Lord now. Look above you and see your Example, the Cherubims. Just think, you're at the end of time now. Time will fade into Eternity, maybe today. We don't know just when. Think of it.
There is millions now in sin and shame, are dying;
(look on the streets)
Listen to their sad and bitter cry;
Hasten, brother, hasten to their rescue;
Quickly answer, "Master, here am I."
Oh, speak, my Lord, oh, speak...
Mean it from your heart now. Isaiah, where are you?
... and I'll be quick to answer Thee; Speak, my Lord...
Methodists, Baptists, Pentecostals, where you at?
Lord, speak, and I will answer, "Lord, send me."

L-192   Do you really mean it? When He speaks to your heart, will you mean it?
Speak, my Lord, oh, speak, my Lord,

L-193 If He is speaking to you while they're singing it, "will quickly answer," will you raise up your hand, say, "Me, Lord. Me, Lord"? God bless.
My Lord, speak, my Lord,
Speak, and I will answer...

L-194 "Let me be an influence, Lord, to others. I can't do it till You cleanse me. Send the Angel now, Lord."
Speak, my Lord; oh, speak, my Lord;
Speak, and I will answer, answer Thee;
Oh, speak, my Lord; speak, my Lord,

L-195 With your hands up now. "And I will..." It shows He is speaking. Now may the Fire come and cleanse it.
Speak, my Lord; speak, my Lord.

L-196   Lord Jesus, as the song is sang, "Speak, and I will quickly answer Thee," literally dozens of hands are up in here, Lord, amongst the teen-age, and amongst the old, ministers, businessmen. Surely, Lord, You're still speaking! Send the Angel now with the coal of cleansing Fire. Prepare Your servants right, Lord, for the task that lays before us.

L-197 Isaiah knew, to be a prophet, it taken more than what he had, to meet the answer of the day. And so does it take more than we've got, Lord, today, to meet the answer. It takes the Person of Christ within us. It takes Jesus, Himself, to answer the question. Grant, Lord, grant that the Holy Ghost, in the Person of Christ... or Christ, in the Person of the Holy Ghost, may come into every heart just now. Cleanse us, Lord, from our unbelief. Cleanse us from our creeds and our foolishness of this world. Cleanse us from it, Lord, and put Your Word in our heart; and meditate on It, day and night. May the answer come, Lord, as soon as the hearts are cleansed. Grant it, Lord. May the    Angel of God touch each one of our hearts now, with that coal of Fire, as we're waiting upon Him. Grant it, Lord.
