<TITLE>14. Par 156-168</TITLE>L-156   Now, see, you just let yourself believe Him now. Come. Don't let your mind go dormant, as people says. Don't do that. You don't come to God, haphazardly. You come to Him, intelligently, with His Word. You bring the Word before you, and say, "Lord, You made the promise. I've asked you to open my eyes. Let my faith stop the Lord Jesus, tonight. May He turn to me, and tell me like He... the woman that did, many years ago." And you believe with all your heart.

L-157 Now, as far as I can see, in the audience, there is not a person that I see that I know. You're all strangers.

L-158 And sometimes you think it's just these people up here in front get it. No, no. Way... I don't care where you are, you just believe. I don't care, anywhere in the building. He knows who you are and where you are.

L-159 Now see if He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, if your faith can stop Him, like Bartimaeus' did. You don't have to be a beggar. You don't have to scream out like he did. The scream didn't stop Him. He didn't hear that. It's the faith that stopped Him. "Thy faith!" He didn't say "thy scream has saved thee." "Thy faith has saved thee." See, "Thy faith has saved thee." All right.
The Lord be blessed!

L-160   I wonder if that minister sitting there, the elder brother that's been preaching for sixty-five years, would do me a favor? Will you do it, sir? Lay your hand on that woman sitting next to you, and the heart trouble will leave her. All right, that's it. Do you believe it, sister? All right, that's all.

L-161 What did she touch? I've never seen her, but it happened. "If thou canst believe!" Do you believe now? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

L-162 Does that identify Him? Is your eyes open? Then look at Him, He is wonderful, the mighty conqueror! There is nothing, no creed, no denomination, no scientist, or nothing, can stop Him. He is God. Amen. I challenge any person in here to believe it, that He is present now.

L-163   How many ever seen that picture of the Angel of the Lord on the paper, that they got in Washington? He is standing right here at this platform right now. Right! I know It's here. I know it. I'm not a fanatic. I'm far from that. I'm telling you the Scriptural Truth. You believe it and see what happens.

L-164 Here, here It is again. This little colored lady sitting out there on the end, looking around. Really, she is wanting a favor from God. She is a minister, and she is praying for God to help her in her ministry. Isn't that right, lady? Raise up your hand, if that's right. I never seen her, she is just as much stranger to me as that little, colored woman was down in Tennessee that time.

L-165   There is a man, colored man sitting there looking at you, kind of overjoyed by it. Do you believe me to be God's servant, sir? You do? That woman touched you just like they did, say, "Be of a good cheer." Not me calling you, but He is calling you. If you believe that with all your heart, that sugar diabetes will leave you. Do you believe it? Amen. All right, then you can have it. Amen. Praise the Lord! That's it.
What did he touch? He never touched me. He touched Him.

L-166 Here, here sits a young, white boy, sitting here looking at me. A deep desire in his heart. I never knew you, but you're seeking the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Right, you. Do you believe it? Believe, you will receive It. Do you believe it, young man? All right, you can receive It if you'll believe it.

L-167   Here is a little woman way back here. She is suffering. It's her left arm. She has had it broke. It's got a knot on it, the left arm. In her right arm, she has got neuritis and rheumatism. She is going to miss it. Mrs. Council, do you believe with all your heart? You believe that God will make... You're healed. Jesus Christ makes you well.

L-168 I never seen the woman or heard of her, in my life. Jehovah knows that to be true. Amen.
