<TITLE>05. Par 38-49</TITLE>L-38   Here, it's you using It. It's not me. It just flows through, 'cause it's just a gift to--to relax yourself, take It out of the human gear, that God can gear Hisself with It, and say things. Now, your own faith, you don't realize that, you're doing that, yourself. Your own faith is a doing that.

L-39 Now, if God wants to do anything, He just lifts you up, says, "Now, it'll be, you go to a certain place. While you're driving the street, there'll be a certain thing happen here. There'll be a man with a--with a brown suit on. He's got gray hair. He'll meet you down there. You go to him, 'cause his wife is very sick. She's at this other place. Here is what she'll look like. And go lay your hands upon her. Tell her to take that thing back, that she took here a few years ago, and do something another, do penitence, and she'll be all right." Then I'll tell it to people. We go. Here is the man there. That's just exactly what happened. About different things in the nation.

L-40   About this Marilyn Monroe when she died, they'll never believe but what that girl committed suicide. But she did not commit suicide. She died in a heart attack. I seen it, days before it happened, and told them about it. But they wouldn't listen to me.

L-41 When them fighters killed one another. Six months before it ever... Up there in New York, one killed the other one. I seen them in--in their taverns, arguing one another. And seen one kill the other, six months before it happened.

L-42 All these things the... that the Lord shows, that's Him using His gift. There's not... You don't get weak, after that. But when... That's what makes me weak, is when you use God's gift, as the Holy Ghost. I'm not His gift. The Holy Ghost is His gift. That's God's gift to the Church, is the Holy Spirit, and you use It. And It just uses wherever you can get yourself out of gear. See what I mean? And let the Holy Spirit go to using you.

L-43   Now, in this case, Jesus had been told of the Father, to leave the home and to go away.

L-44 If you notice how it worked, they, after Lazarus took sick. And no doubt, many of them said, "Uh-huh! Now let's see where that holy-roller preacher is now, that's going to pray for the sick. He isn't on the scene."

L-45 So, He went away. And they, finally, they sent for Him. When the doctor give him up, they sent for Him to come. And instead of coming, He just went right on further. They sent again. Instead of coming, He just kept on going the other way. See? And then, all at once, He stopped, looked back at the disciples; after so many days, vision fulfilled what the Father had showed Him. He said, "Lazarus sleepeth."
The disciples said, "Well, he does well." See?

L-46 "He sleepeth," not dead. There's no such a thing as a believer dying. See? And He told them in their language, "He's dead, and for your sake I'm glad I wasn't there. But, I go wake him. I go wake him." See!

L-47 He knew it was going to be done, now. Cause, if He didn't, then He said something wrong when He said, "I do nothing till the Father shows Me first." See? He knew it.

L-48 And then look at Him at the grave, "Father, I thank Thee, Thou hearest Me already. But I say this for those who stand by." See?
"Lazarus, come forth." And he did. He come out of the grave.

L-49   Now, when Jesus left the home, why, that death and trouble set in. And just remember, when He leaves your home, trouble is on the road. Now, He wasn't put out, here. Or, He was just simply left, because the Father had drawed Him away. All hopes was gone. Now, what a sad little home! Many of us, tonight, knows how to sympathize with that home, when death has struck our home. And you never know what it is until you have to go through with it once. But, you know, when they was...
