<TITLE>19. Par 186-200</TITLE>L-186 Got so, look like, when you pray for people, you apologize, "Mr. Devil, would you please move over and let me...?" Nothing! Faith has got muscles, and hair on its chest. When it speaks, everything else shuts up. Don't go in, "Mr. Devil, you move out?"

L-187 "Get out of here! I'm a son of God, commissioned of God. Leave them alone!" That moves. You have no apology to the Devil, nothing to do with him. Not ashamed of the Word of God, not ashamed of your commission, not ashamed of who we are.

L-188 The only shame that I am, is I'm a Branham, that's my earthly birth. I'm ashamed of my failures.

L-189 But as His servant, I'm not ashamed! I'm not ashamed of His Word. Whether it's denominations, kings, potentates, or whatever it might be; just ready to give an answer, God calls for it.

L-190   Moses walked up before Pharaoh. He wasn't ashamed to tell him that they would not compromise and take his so-many days out in the wilderness.
He said, "Some of the women stay, by your children."

L-191 Said, "We'll all go! Not even one hoof will be left behind, we'll take our cattle and all." He wasn't ashamed. Why? He had come into the Light of deliverance.

L-192 That's the reason a man or a woman, sick or anything, once comes into the Presence of God, and knows that God has healed them, you're stepping into the Light of deliverance. You don't compromise on anything.

L-193 Deliverance was in his heart, for he had met the God Who said, "I am the God of Abraham, Who give Abraham the promise. And the time, time of redemption, of deliverance, is at hand. I'm sending you down there to take them out." What's to apologize, about that?

L-194   Pharaoh could have killed him. He was just a man. He was a slave. He could have killed him. But he wasn't ashamed of the Word. He didn't come down and get on his knees and beg to Pharaoh for nothing. He said, "I come to take them."
Pharaoh said, "Well, you can't take them!"

L-195 He said, "All right, then there will be fleas upon the earth, till you will wade through them." And there is what happened.
Said, "Oh, Moses, take them away!"
He said, "All right. Now do you repent?"
Said, "Well, you can go so-many days in the wilderness."

L-196 He said, "Then flies will come." Amen. Said, "Darkness will come." It was so dark you couldn't see one place to the other.

L-197 And finally death come. From Pharaoh to the servant, it was death for the oldest child in the family. Didn't have no apology to nobody. He was a son of Abraham, born in the Spirit of God, given commission by God, the Message of God, to go down and take those people out.

L-198 Well, can't God call the same thing in this hour, to take out of the church a Bride? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Daniel wasn't, or...

L-199   David, rather, wasn't afraid before Saul. When everybody was afraid of Goliath out there, he wasn't afraid to walk up. And said, "Your servant..." This little ruddy-looking fellow said, "Your servant was herding his father's sheep, and a bear come in and got one of them. I chased him out in the wilderness and killed him, with this slingshot. A lion come in." Oh, my! "A lion come in and got one of them, and run out in the wilderness, and I knocked him down with a slingshot. When he got up, I killed him." He said, "And the God..." That backslidden king standing there, them wishy-washy soldiers claiming to serve the God of Heaven, and let that uncircumcised Philistine stand out there and defy the armies of the living God. Said, "Your servant also will slay him. For, the God Who delivered the lion and the bear to me, will also deliver that uncircumcised Philistine." He didn't stutter, didn't say, "perhaps it'll be done." He said, "It'll be done!" He wasn't ashamed.

L-200   Daniel, before the king, wasn't afraid to defy his orders that nobody would pray, only to him. He opened up the windows and threw up the sash, and prayed three times a day. He wasn't afraid.
