There was too much of you in you, till God had to squeeze it out through trials. And while that squeezing was coming on, it's hard. But after while the skies clear back and you see the purpose of God. Then you cry, "I know my Redeemer liveth, and at the last days He'll stand on the earth. Though the skin worms destroys this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God." These little trials and things are just for a moment, and they fade and pass away. But they're only done for your good; let us remember that, that God would get glory.

Wherever the sons of God are gathered together, Satan is sitting somewhere. See? Just remember. I know that from long experience.

Let us love and project our lives in Christ and be sincere and stay with the Word, until when He comes we just fit right in like the glove over the hand, like that, with Him. Oh, that's the Church that God is waiting for. Yes, sir.

Shall we bow our heads just a moment while we're in His Presence, every man and woman with their head bowed, boys and girls. Turn that little lever that sets right at the top of the brain cell, bypass all those reasonings out through your ears as nonsense. Then open up that little valve that runs down to the human heart, to your soul. It won't reason; it'll believe. It'll say God's Word is right and Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Oh, Word believers, give in to my Message. Hear me, not my Message, but His Message that He firmly declares to be the Truth. You’ve got to choose from somewhere. You can’t sit still after this. You’ve got to make your choice.

When Brother Carlson just made the statement that these ministries, what they have to go through to make them ministries, how true. Brother Joseph standing by me, he said, “Well,” he said, “if you're not a soldier, you're not shot at.” So I thought that was pretty well placed. That—that is right. And as the battles rage, why, you become a real target. So there's only one thing to do: put on the whole armor of faith, stand true to God, and march forward. That's all. God's army does not retreat. It goes on. Many of them drop off to the side, and start this, that, or the other. But the army of God marches forward. We're going right on and on. 

See, a real believer, before he does anything, no matter what—how good it looks, he will always consult God first. Amen. Yes, sir.

“Don't fear, John. Don't fear, little flock. All that I am, you are heir to. All my power is yours. My omnipotence is yours as I stand in your midst. I have not come to bring fear and failure, but love and courage and ability. All power is given unto Me and it is yours to use. You speak the Word and I will perform it. That is My covenant and it can never fail.”

And if the Spirit is leading you, It'll never lead you contrary to the Word.

Some fellow, very critical on the second coming of Christ, said, “Do you mean to tell me all the Christians that ever died in Christ will rise, them, what you call, born again people? Well,” said, “you couldn’t place them on this earth like cordwood.” I said, “Who said they’d be here on earth like cordwood?” That’s right. They won’t. I said, “My Heavenly Father stood back there and blowed off His hands moons, stars, moons.” I said, “They’ll be millions of worlds out yonder. Well, my, hard tell where we will live out in them great places.” Said, “How about over ten cities and all these cities He said, ‘He that overcometh shall rule over?’” I said, “Why, God’s got worlds on top of worlds, and places on top of places.”

How can our little infinite mind limited God? Why, we can’t, there’s no way at all to express Him when you look out and see how vast God is in His universe. Why, He’s marvelous.

To be an eagle of God, you've got to follow the Word, day by day. You've got to continue, feed upon the Word.
