CHAPTER IGOD W ILL HEAL ME W HENHE G ETS R EADY

Some folk believe they will receive their healing; but always at somefuture date. If it is always put it in the future you will never get it.That is as good as the devil wants. To hear the devil tell it, God willheal you when He gets ready; but He never is ready. He is on ajourney, asleep, or busy about something else.

Definite Time fO T SalvationThe devil uses the same excuse on people who are seeking for salva-

tion. If Satan cannot postpone a sinner coming to Jesus he will.try to.get him to think that it takes a certain length of time for God to getready, or it takes so much time for him to seek before God will accepthim. That is all a lie of Satan. A sinner does not have to reform, orlive better a long time, before God will save him. God tells him tocome just as he is. It is the grace of God, and the righteousness ofJesus, that freely saves him. As long as our faith expects a thing tobe done in the future it cannot be done today. As long as a sinner says,"I will get saved sometime" he will never he saved.I had gone to the altar seeking salvation for a long time. One night

I said, ''Lord I am not going hack in sin. I am tired of sin. I acceptyou now. 1 am not going to quit my habits; I have already quit them.I am not going to quit myoid company; I have already quit it. Fromthis minute 1 am crossing the separation line; 1 am leaving this oldworld behind. Good bye old world forever; 1 am. going through. I'msaying one eternal 'Yes' to God, and one eternal 'No' to the devil.Live, or die; sink, or swim, I am going through. Lord 1 am going totake my place with God's people. 1 will sing when the rest do; pray

as the rest do; and testify, or do anything I can. Lord I will serve youfrom NOW on if you never bless me." Do you think God let me down?No! He can't lie. If He had not saved me I could put my finger in Hisface at the day of Judgment and tell Him He lied to me. I knew HisWord was true. I had to quit sin before He would save me. I actedlike 1 was saved. I was saved that very night. I received the witness be-cause I accepted Him. I believed His Word, feelings or no feelings.Every time a person gets in earnest like that, and seeks God with

his whole heart, then God is obligated to do something and He will dosornething.P"?I told my brother, who had been seeking God a long time, how I

did, He did the same way and was saved the same night he made thatdecision. Many more who I have instructed that way have acceptedtheir salvation. They felt it as soon they accepted it.I don't mean to be writing on salvation, but healing is accepted the

same way.If you get a telegram tomorrow that you have an oil well, you will

be happy if you really believe it. You will act on your faith. If youreally believe First Peter 2:24 you will do something about it. Youwill be happy because you first believed it.Some people say they are born to go to heaven or hell. They tell

us there is nothing they can do about it. If they are to be saved theywill be saved. If they are to be lost they will be lost. They can prayall they like but they will not be saved unless it is for them to be saved.They say God will save them when He is ready, and not before. I knowyou don't believe that. But why believe that about your healing?What would you do if you were trying to get a friend saved, and he

would not pray or do anything, and say the Lord would save himwhen the Lord was ready? You would tell him the Lord was waiting onhim to get ready. You may as well say, "God will save me when Hegets ready," as to say, "God will heal me when He gets ready."

290 "The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Eliu wua ~an ~~bject tolike passiODl i u we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might notram... (Ju.5:16-17).2

Definite Time for Other ThingsI meet people who say they want the Holy Ghost. I try to get them to

seek the Holy Ghost. They console themselves by saying, "The Lord willgive me the Holy Ghost when He gets ready to give it to me." Theyare mistaken. He will give them the Holy Ghst when they get ready.They seem -to think that God knows their phone number, their nameand address, and will-deliver them the Holy Ghost when He gets aroundto it. They have to be more concerned than that. They must seek! Theymust ask! They must desire! 291Of course, you don't believe that would work about the Holy Gho&;

neither will it work about healing.Even when you are praying for others you must accept it when you

pray. Accept the answer when you pray. Stand on the assurance.293Imagine a wife praying for her husband and being so unconcerned.Imagine her saying, "The Lord will save my husband when He getsready to save him." Her husband would be lost if his salvationdepended on her prayers.Would you pray that way about your boy or girl? No! God is ready

to save at all times. The same is true about healing.You may as well say, "Lord save me when you get ready," as to say,"Lord heal me when you get ready." He has been ready about nineteenhundred years.294 You need to get ready. He has done His part, youmust do yours.

Definite Time for HealingEveryone who receives healings must set a definite time for it. Believe

it will happen when you are anointed with oil, when hands are laidon you, when the word is spoken, or when prayer is offered. If youdon't have a definite time to count it done you may never receive it. Faiththat is seen is not faith. You see after you believe it is done.296

291 "For everyone that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth and tohim that knocketh it shall be opened" (Luke 11:10). n how much m~re shallyour heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him" (v. 13).293 "Therefore I say unto you, what things soever ye desire when ye praybelieve that yereceive them and ye shall have them" (Mk. 11:24). 294 n He said, it is finished: and he bowed his head and gave up the ghost"Uno. 19:30).295 " they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover" (Mk. 16:16-18)-

One man told Jesus to speak the word only and his servant wouldbe healed. He believed his servant was healed as soon as Jesus toldhim his servant lived. His servant was made whole.296If he had said, "Jesus will heal my servant when He gets ready," his

servant would probably have died.A poor incurable woman said, "I will be healed when I touch the

hem of His garment." It happened according to her faith. If she hadsaid "I will get healed when He gets ready," she would have died.297When I step on the starter of my car, I expect something to happen,if the' connections are alright. If you are connected with Jesus, then

when hands are laid on you things will happen. Jesus is always ready.Now Is the Accepted Time

The only time that God promises to save is now. The only time Hepromises to fill with the Holy Ghost is NOW. The only time He saysHe will heal is now. He has never promised to answer your prayertomorrow. What things soever you desire when you pray believe youreceive them (then) and you'll have them.298Mere prayer will not heal. Merely coming into the presence of Christ

will not heal. According to your faith be it unto you. God says, "Todayif ye hear His voice harden not your heart." "Behold, Now is theaccepted time." "Come now and let us reason together."

" ... ami lei them pray over him annointing him with oil in the name of the Lord"(Jas. 5 :14). "said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leape!'and walked" (Acts 14:10). " ... pray one for another that ye may be healed ..(Jas- 5 :16).296"And a certain Cen turion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, andready to die ... Then Jesus went with them, and when he was not far off fromthe house, the Centurion sent friends to him, saying un to him, Lord trouble not thyself .. but say in a word and my servant shall be healed ... And ther t~at weresent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been SICk (Luke7:2-10). ' h297"And a certain woman which had an issue of blood twelve years .. w enshe had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his .garment ..And He said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hast made thee whole; go m peace, andbe whole of thy plague . (Mk. 5:25-34) .

29S ''Therefore 1 say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray,believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them" (Mk, 11 :24). " ... beholdnQWis the accepted t ime; behold, now is the day of salvat ion" (II Cor. 6:2).4

Were the promises for healing, or salvation, or any other promisein the Bible, promised gilts we would have to wait for them to befulfilled. In that case the responsibility would be on the Lord. But theblessings of God are OFFERED GIFTS. They should be accepted.God can't fail. The responsibility to accept them by faith is ourS.299The Bible says God ha s given us freely all things.soo He is ever with

outstretched hands saying, "Come, for all things are NOW ready."30lThe table is spread. Healing is the children's bread.Suppose you wife gets dinner ready and calls you to dinner. If youwould come three hours late the dinner might be more than ready. You

mUfl' come when God is ready. He is ready now.Why Use Remedies

If you are really sincere in that excuse, may Iask you once more,why do you use remedies? Why go to the doctor? Why try to get well?If God is not ready for you to be well yet why do you try to spoilthe plan of God and try to get well before He gets ready for you to I!et\ V e i l ?Ithink you had betLer change that excuse around, and say it isthe devil who is not ready for you to get healed. He will never beready. His time is always tomorrow: God's time is NOW.Don't you think that all the doctors and hospitals should be put out

of business because they are trying to get people well before God getsready?302You can't make me believe you are sincere about that excuse if you

try to get well other ways before God gets ready. God is ready Now.Believe and receive!

Many Blockades to HealingThere are so many things that try to keep one from getting his heal-

ing. There are so many churches teaching it is done away with. There299"But without faith it i. impossible to please him" (Heb, 11 :6).soo "He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, howshall he no t with him also freely give us all things?" (Rom. 8:32) .301 "And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were biddenCome; fo r all things are now ready" (Luke 14:17).302"I would like to state that 1 am not against doctors and medical aid. Theyare doing their best. But in sp ite of all they are doing there are more people sickthan ever before."

are 80 many ministers, instead of teaching. that Jesus wants to heal,are teaching that Jesus is not what He used to be and is nottouched with our feelings and pains, and no longer has mercy.IOS It isa wonder some would have faith as they do. Some are teaching thatJesus no longer saves. They say we can just shake hands and join andwe can't he lost.They came too late to tell me. Jesus still saves. He still heals and

answers prayer.There are so many higher critics. There is so much lack of faith inthe afflicted ones. There are so many of the devil's excuses. There are

so many blockades to healing.Press Past the Blockades

"From the time of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom ofHeaven is preached and every man must press into it." You must dosome pressing. Any old "trash can float down stream. It takes a live fishto go upstream. We need a back-bone like a saw-log instead of a potato-vine. We must press our way to Jesus.Look at poor blind Bartimaeus! If anyone had a right to sit downand expect someone else to do the pressing he did. He had been blindall his life. He had never seen his wife, children or family. Did hejust sit there? No! 88.The people told him he was getting too loud. They told him he was

out of order. He got that much louder. He cried more than ever. Hegot in earnest. He said, "Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy uponme." Did Jesus pass him by? No, he said, "Thy faith hath madethee whole." You must have a little faith. If you do you will do some-thing about it. You will not just sit and make excuses.

If anyone had a right to quit it was the poor woman who asked Jesusto heal her daughter. Jesus called her a dog. But still she kept asking.

lOS..... for hi e mercy endureth forever" (PI. 136:1). This truth .is atatedtwenty-six times in this short chapter. How can people say that He 11 1 not umerciful as He used to be. He always healed people. He etill doea, than k Godlso, "And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, h~vemercy upon me: Andthey which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried somuch the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me. And Jesus stood, and C

A dog has some rights. What did Jesus do? He said, "0 woman, greatis thy faith, be it unto thee even as thy wilt." It takes a will power tokeep pressing. "As thou wilt." A fixe::!and concentrated will is essentialto all strong faith and action.P'" Difficulties cannot injure true faith. Heseemed against her. But still she kept seeking. She got the answer. Ifshe could receive healing when it was not even for her how much morecan the chilrlu'n ~~t h~f1'ing?306When you do something about your healing that shows you do havesome faith. If you have some faith you will do something about it.801

Doing nothing is not faith. Wishing is not faith .. Hope is not faith.Faith is NOW, right NOW.loS "He that believeth, HATH."309 If youbelieve, you have. To develop muscles you must exercise them. Todevelop faith you must exercise faith.Faith is active. Do something about your healing! Faith withoutaction is dead. Belief is passive. Faith must act. All of the faith heroesin the eleventh chapter of Hebrews did something. God did not let

them down when they stepped out on His promises. Step out! Dosomething! Faith is the evidence of things not seen. If you do some-thing before you see, that will be evidence that you have faith.The poor incurable woman that the doctors sent home to die did

something. She was made whole. She pressed through the opposition.IwSaying, what wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I mayreceive my sight. And Jesus said unto him, receive thy sight: thy faith hath savedthee" (Luke 18:36-42).

306 "When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been a long time in thatcase, he saith unto him, wilt thou be made whole?" (John 5:6).306 "And behold a woman of Canaan came out of the same coast and criedun~o him, saying, Have merc;yon me, 0 Lord, thou son of David; my daughter isgrievouslj vexed WItha devil. But he answered her not a word. And his disciplescame and besought him saying, Send her away, for she crietb after U!. But heanswered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.Then came she and worshiped him, saying, Lord, help me. But he answered andsaid, it is Dot meet to take the children's bread and cast it to dogs. And she said,Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from the children's table.Then Jesus answered and said unto her, 0 woman, great is thy faith: be it untothee even as thy wilt And her daughter was made whole from that very hour"(Matt. 15:2228).807 "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone" (Jas.2:17).S08"NOW faith IS the substance of things hoped for" (Heb, 11:1)_808 "He .that believeth on the Son hath the witness in h im s el f " (I JDO.5:10)."He that beheveth ODthe Son hath everlasting life" (John 3:36).SlO"When she had heard of Jesus, came in the preas ...

It a poor woman who was given up to die .had courage to do somepressing you have no right to be so lazy, and put up one of the devil'sexcuses, and say, "God will heal me when He gets ready." Anybodycan say that. A sinner can say that. Wake up! Get busy! Repent ofyour carelessness and laziness! If you are not guilty I don't mean thisfor you.

Put Forth an EffortHezekiah didn't make an excuse like that. When God told him he

must surely die he got busy, and prayed. He believed God would healhim. He was healed. He lived fifteen more years.8ll Go to work!The four lepers didn't make excuses like that. They asked, "Why sit

we here until we die." They went into the camp of the Syrians. Theylived because they did something. Otherwise they would have died.Sl1Why don't you do as much as those poor lepers did? Why don't youask, "Why sit we here until we die?" A sinner is lost because he doesnothing. People are not healed because th~y do nothing,I say again, action denotes faith. If you call for the elders of thechurch, if you fast and pray, that shows that you believe the Bible.

After you have done something about your faith, after you show anaction.xafter you fast and pray, then you must believe Jesus HAS. Ifyou see no change just then, or see no visible results, you will have theassurance that He has heard you and the answer is on its way becausedoing somehting about it shows you have faith. If you had no faithyou would not fast and pray.When Jesus said, "Rise up and walk," I believe the first few steps

were with no feelings. & they moved out from the beds, chairs,crutches, or props their faith took hold. They were made whole. Jesusused to tell people to do something; He still does. It is when they makean eft'ort that they receive their healing.

811 " Thus saith the Lord, set thine house in order: for thou shall die, andnot live. Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord;and said, remember now 0 Lord, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee intruth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight.And Hezekiah wept sore ... I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold,I will add unto thy days fifteen years" (Is. 38:15).112 "And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they

We who believe God for healing can bring you to where the powerof God is present to heal. Then you are on your own. When Jesustold the man to arise and take up his bed and, go into his house it wasthen time for him to have personal faith, and do his best. When hedid his best God did the rest. He set his goal. He burned his bridges.He believed for complete freedom. He counted it done.318There are folk who never put forth an effort to be healed. Still, ae

one brother said, they whine, whimper, and wonder, If they acted thatway about salvation they would never be saved. If they acted that wayabout their insurance they would never collect it. If they acted thatway in the summer, they would be eaten up with flies. The lice wouldeat them up if they never put forth an effort to keep them off. Putforth an effort and chase the devil a little. Resist the devil and he willflee from you.8UThis super-nice way of getting healed with no action, or demonstra-

tion will bring no deliverance. March hard for victory. Make the finaleffort.Ifwe sought healing as we did medical aid, we would be completely

healed. People will sit for hours in a doctor's office waiting for anexamination. If the doctor doesn't get to them they will come back thenext day. They will stay for a week waiting for an observation. Whydon't they just stay at home and say the doctor will come to see themsometimes, when he gets ready?Faith works as you put it into action. An arm in the sling will lose

all the strength it ever had. Ifyou take it out and exercise it you can gainuse of the arm. Treat your faith like that and let it grow.

Do You Have Any Scripture?Do you have one verse or one line to teach you to believe that you

must wait until God gets ready before He will heal you? .When wouldsaid one to another, why,sit we here until we die?" (Il Ki. 7:3).

IllS "And they came unto him bringing one sick of the Palsy, which was bomeof four. And when they could not come nigh unto him for the presa they uncoveredthe roof where he was, and when they had broken it up they let down the be d~herein the sick of the Paler lay. Whe~ Jesus saw their faith, He saith unto thealck of the Palsy, Son, thy sms be forgiven thee ... I say unto thee, arise, andtake up thy bed, and go into thine house" (MIt. 2:311).114 "Resist the devil and he will flee from you" (James 4:7).116"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of G o d "

you ever know to have faith? What can we rest our faith upon if wecannot rest it upon the revealed Word of GOd?315 There is no otherfoundation. All other is sinking sand.Do you really believe God would write a Bible like this? "By His

stripes you are healed, providlng God is ready." "The prayer of faithshall save the sick, if God is ready; and the Lord shall raise him up,providing He is ready." "They shatllay hands on the sick and the Lordshall raise them up, providing He is ready." "I am the Lord thathealeth thee, providing Im ready." "Who forgiveth all thine inquitiesand healeth all thy diseases, proving He is ready." "Many are the afflic-tions' of the righteous, but God delivereth him out of them all, pro-viding He is ready." "Ask anything in my name and I will do it, if Iam ready."316When would you ever know when to expect anything of the Lord?

You might die before God got ready. The doctor may not be ready.He may be too tired. He may be busy. But God is not a man as adoctor.Would God say, "If we confess our sins He will forgive them, if He

happens to be ready?" Certainly not! A sinner could be dead and inhell before God got ready. A sick person can come assured that it isthe will of Cuu that, "your body prosper and be in health even as yoursoul prospers." Glory! It is just as easy for Him to heal as it is toforgive sin. He is the "Great I AM,"317 not the "Great I Was," or the"Great Iwill be when Iget ready." We must believe that He is, andHe is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.us "Faith is the evi-dence of things not seen," not "shall be the evidence of things not seen."God didn't say, "no good thing will Iwithhold from them that

walk upright, ifIm ready."All the scriptures quoted, incorrectly above, would destroy faith.You would never know when to expect anything. Iwouldn't want a

(Rom. 10:17).alii There is proof. Look it up in the Bible: (PI. 103:3); (84:11); (34:19);(Jao, 14:15); (Ex. 15:26); (Is. 53:5); (James 5:14-16); (Mk. 16:16.18).117" Verily I say unto you, Before Abraham wu I Am" (Jno.8:58).818" for he that cometh unto God must believe that He is, and that he is rewarder of them that diligetly leek bUr" (Heb. 11:6).

10

Bible like that. You can have it if you want it but I want the Biblelike it is. Faith comes by hearing it. Glory! And, I'm so glad all Hispromises are still yea and amen in Christ Jesus and not, "Maybe, if Heis ready."319If you have one verse or line on your side, to support your excuse

then alright. If you don't have any scriptural support, then why don'tyou discard that excuse and come on and claim your healing?

Then Close You Case Out for VictoryIf your rich uncle were to die and leave you a black land farm would

you say, "They will give it to me when they get ready?" No, youwould put your claim in for it. You would undoubtedly get a lawyerand fight for it. Yet, healing is your inheritance.Healing is your Father's last will. "Will" means a testament. The

Spirit Himself beareth witness with our spirit that we are the childrenof God. And if children then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs withChrist. You are "Heirs to the riches of His grace. " You are "Heirs ofsalvation, heirs of the grace of life."32oThere are many missing heirs here in America. It is said that more

than twenty million dollars are waiting for someone to put in their claim.Are you one of the missing heirs of the Kingdom? Come and fileyour claim. Jesus is your testator and your lawyer. He will not swindleyou out of your inheritance. Claim your healing now for He is ready.He is able to keep that which we have committed into His hand."a21

But He does not promise to keep anything that is not committed to Hishand.I heard that a colored boy got a slip to fill out to go to the Army.

He didn't know how to fill it out. After worrying a long time heturned it over and wrote on the back: "/ am ready when you areready."That is the attitude we should take about our healing. God is ready319"For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in hiIr Ameu, unto theglory of God by us" (II Cor. 1 :20).820 Here is mote proof: (Rom. 8:16.18); (Titus 3:7); (Heh , 11:9); (IPeter3:7); (Gal.3:29); (las. 3:5).821 "For I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is abI.to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day" (II Tim. 1 :12).

when we are ready. We should be ready when He is ready. Then we willget something.Come now. The past is dead. The future is yet unborn. Only now

is ours. NOW is the accepted time. As long as the devil gets you towait you have no faith. Come on accept it nOw. Close your case outfor victory.

CHAPTER IIG OD USES MY SICKNESS TO SAV E

MY LOV ED ONESJ know a precious man who fell out of a truck. He crippled himself.He suffered untold misery. He was without money; and his familysuffered poverty. He prayed much. Later on in life a son, and a daugh-ter were saved. He says God caused him to be crippled that they mightcome to the Lord. He prayed for them and they were saved. ButIwonderif he couldn't have claimed the promises of God just the same with awell body. Then 1wonder too, after they are saved, why he can't get hishealing and believe the Word of God. God says, "I am the Lord thathealeth thee."We went to pray for a good old sister who was suffering with acancer. We told her God wanted to heal her, but she informed us that

she was suffering for her children. She wouldn't believe that Godwould keep His promises to heal her. She died. Her children are stillin sin as far as 1 know. Iwonder if she couldn't have claimed thePromises of God for them with a well body. Wouldn't she have beesable to pray the prayer of faith if she had not been eaten up withcancer? And did God promise to give us the desires of our heart andsave our loved ones if we would abide in Him and if His Word abidesin us? Did He not say that our house would b e saved if we wouldpray the prayer of faith? Did He say we can have whatever we desirewhile praying ifwe believe? Did He promise to give uswhatever we askin His name? Or did He say that we must have a cancer before Hewould do it? Answer me!

181 "And the Lord turned the captive ly of Job, when he prayed for his frieacla :ALSO THE LORD GAVE JOB TWICE AS MUCH AS HE HAD BEFORE"(Job 42:10).

No one has .to suffer for our sins. Jesus suffered for our sins. Wedon't have to suffer for anyone's sins.88% Jesus said, "It is finished".He alone paid the price. He deserves the glory.We remember reading where Martin Luther thought he had to do a

certain amount of suffering. He crawled on glass. He punished him-self many ways. One day God spoke to him: "The just shall live byfaith."383 Luther set the world on' fire!To get people saved they must know that Jesus alone did the suf-

fering. Many people put glass in their shoes. They do much penience.That will never get anyone saved. Jesus alone atoned for our sins.No one else is worthy.Friend, remember, if you want to be saved or healed, you must trust

in the finished work. Our healing has been paid for. Our salvation ba aheen paid for. Come as you are.su

Miracles Brings RevivalsLook around. You will see for yourself. When a person is healed,

or when a healing revival comes to town there are most always asmany, or more, coaversions as there are healings.And what does the Word of God say? When Jesus healed the noble-

man's son a revival broke out.386 It caused conversions. When Heraised Lazarus from the dead many of the Jews, and even the Priestbelieved on JesuS.88 8 When Phillip had his revival many were healed,God says that they saw the miracles and turned to GOd.187

8811 "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we be inedead to sins, should live unto righteoasnese ; by whOle llbipea ye were hellled"(IPeter 2 :24) . .888"For herein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: u 1lis written the jUlt shall live hy faith" (Rom. 1:17).au "But be was wounded for our transgreeeiona, he wu bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him: anel with hit _tripes 'We arehealed" (Is. 53:5).88G"So the father knew that it 'WU at the aame hour, in which Jeans IBidmito him, Thy Son liyeth; and himself believed, and his whole hou.e" (Jno 4:53).8se "TIlen lIWly of the J ews which CUDe to M . a rr , and had seen the thinpwli iGh Jeaua did, belined on him" (Jno. 11 :45) .88'1 "'And the people ' tfith one BCCOI'daye heed anto those thinp which Philip-pake, l teariD and aeeiDg the mindel w f a i c : : l t he did" (Acta 8:6).

Miracles always brings revivals. When Paul commanded that the manwho disturbed be made blind for a season the deputy got saved.SBBWhen God wanted to bring a revival he always raised up a man

through whom he could work miracles such as Moses, David, Samson,Elijah, and Elisha.When Daniel and the Hebrew children were delivered supernaturally

the people believed on their God. When Paul and Silas were deliveredsupernaturally a revival broke out. Everywhere Peter, Paul or any ofthe Disciples, were sent there were miracles performed. Revivals followed.When Gidion was called he said, "where are the miracles?" When

God did the miracles people followed him. The battles were won bymiracles. God is a God of miracles. He is the same today. He doesnot change!We should pray as the early church did for God to stretch forth

His hand to heal and do signs and miracles. The place will be shake.and people will get saved! 889

Healing Glorifies GodWe have seen that, always, when God healed people in the Bible days

that people turned to God. Healing glorifies God. Sickness alwaysglorifies the Devi l .We can serve God better with a well body. All the soul winners we

have seen, or read about, were able to carry the message. They wereDot shut-ins. Why didn't God let them be shut-ins, or be sick oraffiicted where they could win more souls for God? Nonsense! If a

person has faith for healing he has faith for souls. If we don't believethe Word of God for one thing it is hard to believe Ilia Word forother things.

Sickness glorifies the Devil. The Devil causes one to be sick. Jesusheals him. About ninety percent of the people are sick or afflicted insome way. Everybody is sick or afflicted at some time or other. Thereare more physicians, more hospitals, and more new diseases, thanever before. According to some people's theory, if sickness would causepeople to get saved, everyone ought to be saved by now. We have hadenough suffering to save the whole world. But no, there is more sinthan ever before. Sickness does not bring people to God! But healingdoes. Sin and sickness are closely connected together; they are twinsisters.a90 The Devil brings them both. JesU8 is seeking to destroyboth.Slll He came to destroy the works of the Devil, instead of puttingmore on people. You may as well say that a person has to go in sinto be healed as to say that a person has to get sick to get saved. Youmay as well say that you have to back-slide to get someone healed ..to say you have to be sick to get someone saved!Sickness hardens people's heart. Healing touches people's heart.

Healing brings joy and gladness which God commands us to have.A few shut-ins may pray the prayer of faith for someone's soul.

Sickness did not cause it; they did it in spite of the sickness. Theycould have done ten times as much if they had been well, if they wouldhave done it. Sickness didn't cause them to do it, They win very fewsouls. They cause more to question the goodness of God. su Look at thepeople in hell they could have won to God if they had been w e n .Then they take up the time of others who could be winning people toGod. Those souls they could have won to God are lost. They need tobe well so they can win others; so they can win others who are going tobell by the thousands daily.

I t,

Look at the money spent for medicine and doctors, and hospitalsthat could b e put in missionary work. Then tell me that their sickneaabrings people to God! A thousand times No!

Why Try to Get Well?Why do you try to prevent diseases and sickness? Why don't you

welcome all new diseases and plagues which come into the country?Why don't you pray for a double portion of sickness, or cancer?

Don't you want to see people saved? Pray that God will put diseaseon everyone so people will hurry and get saved. Everyone has folks whomhe doesn't want to see go to hell. Why not ask, when you pray, that theDevil put heart-troubles, T.B., Ulcerated Stomachs, and cancers oneveryone?Yes, according to your theory, every Doctor should be prosecuted.

Every hospital should be put out of business. Drug stores should beabolished; for they are houses of rebellion. They are keeping lost lOW.from coming to God by making people well. Nonsense! Absurd! Youdon't believe such atutl! Don't believe that! Don't let the Devi l tell youthat you must stay sick to get people saved.

Do You Have One ScriptureJesus healed everyone who eame to Him.'" He still does. He is the

l8D1e yesterday, today, and forever. He never turned anyone a"ay bytelling them they had to suBer to get people saved.Jesus came to heal people. When he healed people, that c:auaed

othen to be saved. He never made anyone sick to get someone saved.He came to destroy the worb of the Devil . Sin and lIickne:se are bothof the Devil. A house divided againBl itself cannot stand. Satan tend.sicbe.. He would not leu down his kingdom by SCIlding sickneu, Ifsickness would tear up his kingdom by saving people, Hi. kingdom ot dinded; don't you forget thaL . ...

Healing brings revivals, and sickness brings questions about the good.ness of God!It looks reasonable that as long as the Devil makes you believe that

you are suffering for someone's salvation just that long you wil l haveafflictions. You can't be vcur best for Cod. Some of your folk maypray through sympathy. Or you may even pray through for someone'ssalvation. But thousands of others will be lost whom you could havewon to God had you claimed the promises of God for your deliverance.Deliverance is for you NOW. WILL THOU BE MADE WHOLE?

If yO\1can't find one scripture to support that excuse, then why noldrop it? Get that doubt of the Devil out of your mind. Don't sayanything if the Bible does not say it. Faith comes by hearing theWord.S96

Maybe You Want SympathyPeople are generally seeking someone to pity them when they make

such an excuse. They had rather have sympathy than to have thier heal-ing. They don't want to claim their healing for fear they will loosesome kind, comforting, words. They want someone to let them cry onhis shoulder.

Just because some of your folk come in and cry a little, that is nosign they have repented. They are crying because they are in trouble.You have not won them to God. Thirty days after you are dead theywill forget all about you, and the promise they made. Your sicknesswill cause them to question God's goodness. They will doubt thegoodness of God. They will doubt your experience if you don't receivehealing. Healing causes people to get saved; sickness does not.

Yes, if you don't get healed, they will say to themselves, "if Godwill not do what He promised, Idon't want to serve that kind of God."The Bible says the Goodness of God leads people to repentence.898 Hedid not say that the badness of the Devil would lead people to repent-ence. The Devil's work will drive them away. Healing will bring themcloser.One more proof is this: When Dorcas got sick and died, the people

came around and cried. But that was not repentance. They wouldhave forgotten all about their tears in three days if they bad goneahead and buried her. As far as we know none of them received salva-tion. Peter came down and prayed. Dorcas was raised up and made well".The people turned to God and were saved. I.,Let's take the Word of God.

of Him, but tells us to ask of Him great things. TIc said that wasthe reason that we did not get things from Him, hecausc WI: did not ask.He said for us to ask that we may receive. He wants our joy to be full.He said, "ask, and it shall be given you." Then al!ain, "ask, anything inmy name and I will do it." He said, "anything." Anything means just"anything." That includes all kinds of healing. Glory!GOD I-IAS DONE ENOUGH FOR ME Your Inheritance

I met up with a man the other day who had an ear which roared allthe time. lIe said it had been deaf five years. I asked him why hedidn't have it prayed for. He said God had done so much for himhe was satisfied to keep the roaring in that ear.I met a good Christian woman a few nights ago. She bad been

blind in one eye for about thirty-five years. I wanted her to accept herhealing. The excuse she gave was this: "Well, I promised God if Hewould just let me see out of one of my eyes that would satisfy me,and I would never ask Him to heal the other eye." God had been sogood to her she would not ask Him to do any more.They think this is being honest with God. They think this j_, the

way to be humble, nice, and sweet. As long as they ~ay that, just thatlong they will never receive their healing. We could all say that; for Godhas been good to all of us. If we all say that we might as well blothealing out of the Bible.

If your rich uncle would die and leave you a will for a great farmyou would think it was your farm, would you not? Would you takepossession of it? I think you would. Yet healing is your inheritance.I Peter 2:24 is your inheritance. That is the will.411Then if the will would read that there was $1000.(J0 worth of equip-

ment which went with that farm in order for you to be in a positionto cultivate it, would you want the equipmeut ? You would need it tooperate the farm. Would you say that you had enough? Would you ~ayyour Uncle had given you enough? No, you would get the $1000.00worth of equipment to operate the farm.You can't work in God's harvest, like you should, with a sick body.

You need a well body. Get your healing so you can do the work Hehas left for you to do. You have salvation; but God says for you towork your salvation out. You can't do it with a diseased and achingbody.

Ask of M e4ltDoes it hurt God to do things for us? Does it worry Him? Does

it bankrupt Him? He commands us to ask of Him, and not only ask

The Children's BreadThe Lord tells us that healing is the children's bread}12 We need

bread to keep living. You had some bread yesterday for dinner. Youhave eaten much bread in the past years. Does that mean you will neverneed any more? God has been good to you by supplying your naturalbread. But you can't exist in the future without more bread.If you would buy your little girl a doll for Christmas I am sure she

would be glad of it. But when you get dinner ready, and call her to

no "Ask. ye of the Lord rain in the time of the latter rain; SO the Lord shaDmake bright c louds, and give them showers of rain, to everyone gr8.118n the field"(Zech. 10:1)."Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee grea t and mighty th inga,which thou knoweth not" (Jer.33:3). ." ... ye have not because ye ask. not" (lu.4:2)."Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: a sk and ye a ha l l receive th.tyom joy may be full" (Jno. 16:24). ."For everyone that ask.eth receiveth; and he that seeketh f iDdeth: aDd to I a i mthat knocketh it wall be opened" (Luke 11: 10) ."If ye uk anything in my name I will do it" (JaG. 14:14).411 " and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that ye prayers be nothindered" (IPeter 3:7).412 "But he anlwered and said, it is not meet to take the children's bread andcas t it to the dogs" (Matt . 15:26) .20 2 1

dinner, she r-ornes. Imagine her saving. "No, you have done enough forme. I will not eat anything because you have been good to me, andbought me this beautiful doll." You would say, "this dinner is ready.You may as well eat it. It is paid for. Child, you can't live without it,Come on. It is free. I fixed it especially for you."The Lord cares as much for you, and more so, as you do your lhtle

girl. He prepared this bread for you.I used to go places before I learned better, and eat half enough.

They fixed a good dinner for me. It was a strange place. I was bashful.They asked me to eat more. I said, "no, thanks, I have had enough."The food was wasted. Do you think they appreciated that? No, theywanted me to eat all I wanted. J didn' t have enough. Something just mademe say that. You know God has not done enouzh for von until he healsyou. Something just makes you say that. Put your feet under yourFather's table. Don't be bashful, or backward. "Come for all things arenow ready." THAT INCLUDES HEALING. Rejeeting the invitation is asin in the sight of God.

Why starve on dry cheese and crackers? Come get all God has foryou. Come get your healing for every ailment.I heard of an old farmer who picked lip a man and let him ride in his

wagon. The man he picked up had a large load on his back. After.awhile the farmer looked around and told him to lay the load downin the wagon. He answered, "No, it is enough to carry me, much lessmy load."

Friends, Jesus is carrying both you and your burden. Just lay yourburden on Him. He is strong. He invites all the weary and heavyladen to come unto Him and receive rest. He says "come." That meansyou if you have burdens. That includes all you who are weary with dis-ease or sickness. Jesus commands you to come and receive rest from yourpain.414

Is That Scriptural?

Healing Paid ForIn several places in God's Word you will find that the Healing is

already paid for, just the same as your salvation. Why not take it if ithas been purchased for you.413A man and wife was to start across the ocean one time. In those

days it took weeks to cross. Everyday at twelve o'clock the dinner bellwould ring. The man and his wife would go off to one side and eat theirlunch which consisted of cheese and crackers.Finally one day at noon someone asked them why they didn't come

on and eat at the regular table where they had everything good to eatyou could think of. They replied: "We don't have any money." Theywere told, "It was all paid for when you bought your ticket to startacross."

Did Jesus ever turn anyone away with an excuse like that? Cer-tainly He did not! He healed all who came. I guess He healed Lazarushundreds of times before He raised him from the dead. Mary andMartha didn't say Jesus had done enough for their brother. They sentfor Jesus.Did any of the Apostles ever turn anyone away with such an excuse?No, they did not!Some people say they want to just bearly get to heaven. But Paul

believed in "an abundant enterance." He said the Lord would do ex-ceeding, abundant, above all we can ask or think,,16 The Lord says forus to call unto Him and He will show us great and mighty things thatwe know not. Paul says the Lord will supply all our needs. Petersays He wiII give us all things that pertain to life and godliness.Paul says Jesus will freely give us all things. David says that Hewill not withhold good things from us, and that He heals all our d.i .seasc .,and delivers the righteous out of all their afBictions.Jesus said "all mine is thine."

When you accepted Jesus and became one of the heirs, you fell heirto it all It doesn't cost Jesus any more. He has already paid for ourhealing by His stripes at the time He paid for our salvation.

oil lamp? Why didn't you keep your old ice box? God had been goodto you already.Why don't you just come out plainly and tell us that you are just

too lazy to seek God?If you are sincere be sure and don't eat dinner today. God has been'

good enough to you. You had so many good things last year. Don'tever gather ~ny more flowers; they are so pretty; but you have had 150many good things. Flowers are free. Yet healing is just as free.Pray like this: "Lord please don't send any more sunshine. You

have been good enough to us already." But we can't do without it.We would die! We can't do without healing. The devil is seeking tokill you. Jesus is seeking to heal you!

Did He ever say, "they shall lay hands on the sick and they shallrecover, if God had not already done enough for them?" No! SG ifyou don't have any scripture for your support, get rid of that faitb-destrojang excuse and receive your healing.

The More the Better'Jesus teaches that the ones He forgives most loves most. The same is

true with healing. The more He can do for us the better. He is touchedwith the feelings of our infirmities.He says for us to forget not all His benefits. That is a command-

ment. Then the next verse tells us what he has in mind. He tells U8the benefits, he commands us not to forget, are our sins being for-given, and our diseases being healed.Jesus is seeking to deliver the godly. He wants to heal you!

HEALING IS JUST AS FREE AS SUNSHINE. It's no harder forGod to send. It is just as plentiful. He has heaven full of the graceof God!God is not bankrupt.O? He is seeking for someone to open his heart

to receive healing. Only believe His Word! Don't seek Him half-heartedly. He lri.ll be found if you will seek Him with all your heart!I know of an old colored man who prayed like this: "Lord if yonwill just answer this prayer I will promise you I will never ask you for

anything else while I live." Don't be ridiculous!

Loved Ones SavedDid you ever hear a Mother praying like this? "Lord you have done

enough for me. You have saved one of my children. That is enough.You have done enough for me. Don't save any more of them." "Non-sense" you say. That is just as simple as that excuse about healing.We are at this time in the middle of a revival. There have been

hundreds saved and healed, and baptized with the Holy Ghost. WhatifIwould say, "The Lord has done enough for us. Don't do any more,Lord." The people would think Iwas crazy.You think that is silly, but Jesus asked, "Which is easier for me

to say, .thy sins he forgiven thee, or to say, arise, take up thy bedand walk?" Jesus can heal you as easily as He can forgive you. Hesays. He is just as willing. Glory!m

CHAPTER IV

He says, "whosoever will, let him come, and tak of th e water of lifefreely!" "Whosoever" means any of us who have the will power. Butwe must come and take it by prevailing prayer, through faith. It isup to us to come.4S9If a very rich man would promise he would give ten dollars to th e

person who dJlew the lucky number, then you could afford to make anexcuse like this. But if you would hear him say that he would give tendollars to all who came to him, then you would expect ten dollars ifyou went to him. The promise would be plain. I feel sure you wouldwalk up and get your ten, if you believed him.

GOD HEAL 1 \IE, IF I A l\1 TO BEHEALEDOne day Iwas driving down from the parsonage to town. Iover-

took a neighbor who was w alk in g . I stopped and asked if he wanted toride. He got ill. On asking hoy; he and h is f a ll li ly were, I was sorry to hearthat his wife was in the hospital in a serious condition. Iwas sorryfor tIle man and wanted to help him.Iasked, "Do you believe in Divine Healing? He looked off through

space and studied awhile, and then he answered, "If she is to be healedGod will heal her; if not lie will take her."After this poor man got out of the car my heart was heavy. What

if everyone made an excuse like this? There would be DO one trustingGod for healing. He cleared himself of all responsibility. He put it allon God. He put forth no effort whatsoever to lay hold on th e promisesof God.Iwanted to help him. God wanted to help him. But, needless to say,his wife died.So the people who put up such an excuse are the people who put

forth no effort to find out what God says, neither do they come to Godto claim the promises as the saints of old. They drift with the tide.They don't realize that God says, "ye have not because ye ask not."

Jesus Healed AllDid the Bible say that He healed all who was oppressed of the Devil,

O!' just part of them?UO Did He say all that were sick needed a Physi-cian? He is the great Physician. You need Him. Does the Bible say thatHe picked out a certain few and healed them, or does it say that Hehealed all who came? Does the Bible say that He is touched with every-one's infirmities except yours ?"1Can you imagine Jesus telling blind Bartimaeus that everyone was

to be healed except him? What would he have thought, after peoplehad recommended Jesus to him? What would he have thought, afterhe had so much faith? What would he have thought after he bad triedso hard, and finally pressed past all the people who tried to quiet bimdown? He would have been so disappointed that he would never havehad any more courage to trust in Jesus for anything,,4zAnd how about the poor woman with the issue of blood? After she

pressed her way through all the opposition j after she had been givenup by the doctors; after she had suffered untold misery for twelve long

The Promise of Healing Is to AllDid not God say that everyone who asketh receiveth? Did He say

He had no respect to persons? Did He say that He deliversall His saints from their afflictions? Did he say that He bealeth allour diseases? (He said that the one that walketh uprightly could getany good thing!) Did He say that He would supply all our needs? Yea,

healing was really not for her. She had faith. She had great faith. She wasnot a lazy woman, who put forth no effort, or one who made eX(, J!,~.Shekept praying and got the healing for her daughter .. And it was notfor her! If she had said, "If it is for me Iwant it" her daughterwould have never been healed.But, glory! healing is for us!The King that was sick was ready to die. He was to die, God said;

but he sougbt Co d with all his heart, and lived fifteen more years. Ifhe had said, "if it is for me Iwant it," he would have been buriedthen.God started to kill the children of Israel. Moses got in earnest audchanged the plan of God. God spared the people. Prayer changesthings!God said the people of Nineveh were doomed to die. God didn't say

maybe so. He said they would b e destroyed in forty days. They fastedand prayed three days. God spared the city. Prayer changed the planof G od when deliverance was not for them.But we don't have to change the plan of God! Healing is in God's

plan. We don't have to do like the woman who begged for 8 crumb.Jesus told her that healing was the children's bread. Are you a childof God? Is healing the children's bread? Then come on! Don't say,"II healing is for me Iwant it." Say, "HEALING IS FOR ME, andJ ",ant it."

Same Excuse for Other ThingsIf a sinner goes to the altar with that excuse he will never be saved.

Imagine him praying, "Lord save me if Ihappen to be a lucky one."Iasked someone to seek for the Holy Ghost. She said, "I want it il it

is for me." Itold her to take the if off, and instead of saying "II theHoly Ghost is for me Iwant it," say, "the Holy Ghost is for me andIwant it." She got the experience.Did you ever hear a Mother praying for her children like this: "Y ,~ (,

save my boy if he is to be saved?" Yet healing is in the atonc ..enjust the same as salvation.Get these excuses out of the way. Read the Bible. Read this whole
