<TITLE>01. Par 1-11</TITLE>64-0206E, God's Provided Way For This Day, Kern County Fairgrounds, Bakersfield, CA, 54 min
L-1     ... the Scripture. I am certainly glad to have, back behind me here tonight... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] Turn into the Scripture, for just a little text, the Lord willing.

L-2 And remember, tomorrow night, praying for the sick again. And now when I'm speaking... Listen, everybody try to do this, don't wait for any certain thing to happen. The thing for you to do, is believe God right now. Believe Him right now! See?

L-3   Now there has been all kinds of ministries. God, in this last days, I believe, has give us everything He has got in His Book. Everything that He has promised, we've seen, and still it seems like that people can't grasp it. Those who are ordained to grasp it, will grasp it; only those. It blinds one; opens the eyes of another.

L-4 Remember, we believe that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is not dead, but alive forevermore. And He's here tonight. We are in His Presence, tonight, and He is here to confirm and make good any promise that He made for this day. And He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. So, anything that He was, He is, tonight. So let us believe Him now, as we read His Word and speak of Him, for the next fifteen, twenty minutes.

L-5   Genesis, the 22nd chapter, and the 7th and 8th verse, for the way of getting a text.
And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for the burnt-offering?
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for the burnt-offering: so they went both of them together.

L-6   Lord Jesus, bless Thy Word, may It not return void, but may the seeds fall upon ground that will bring forth salvation to those who are in need, both physically and spiritually. We commit ourselves to You; the congregation, the audience, the Word, the text, the context. May the Holy Spirit take over our beings, that we see Jesus Christ. Amen.

L-7   I want to speak just for the next few minutes now on: God's Provided Way For This Day.

L-8 God always has had a way. There is two ways, that's, our ways or His ways. God has a way for today, for He's always made a way for everything. God, at the beginning, knowed the end, so He has laid out His Scripture for each age. And that age, when it comes along... Now don't fail to see this. That age, when it comes along, usually the ministry is so mixed up in isms, and so forth, and traditions, till it's a million miles away from the Word.

L-9 And then God always sends someone on the scene, a prophet. And this prophet... God never changes His system. He never changes His ways. He always does it the same way. He always has; He must do it this time. And, through this, God works and vindicates that Word. As I spoke to you last night, God doing His own interpretation. God needs no one to interpret the Word to Him. He interprets It Himself, by vindicating It, making It real. And when God says He'll do a certain thing, then He does it, there is no more question to it. That's the way He does it.

L-10   So God has made a way for us. God loves His children. He loves His people. He wants to help them. He wants to help you more than you want help. If you can just get that in your heart, that God is more willing to help you than you are to help yourself. But He has a way, and that's the only way that He'll work is through His way. You must come to His terms, not your terms. His terms! You want it a certain way, but He--He gives it to you His way.

L-11 Like Naaman dipping in the--the--the waters of Jordan. Why, he said the waters up in his country is much cleaner and better, but that wasn't what the prophet said. "Dip here." He dipped once, leprosy still there; six times, it was still there. He had to obey and come God's way. And when He fully obeyed God's way, the leprosy left.
