John Gets a Sign.

When John was in prison he began to doubt a little whether Jesus was the Christ, and he sent his disciples to ask, “Art Thou He that should come?” Jesus did not say, “I belong to the church or I belong to a college.” He said, “Go and tell John the things you have seen here; the lame walk, the blind see, different diseases are healed, and the poor have the gospel preached to them, Blessed is he whosoever shall not be offended;” men get mad at the signs of the Holy Ghost; jealous; spitting out hatred; trying to tear down God’s work.

If John did not believe in Christ through the signs, no eloquence would be of value. If he did not believe what the witnesses tell him he would not believe anything; neither will you! There is a devil’s counterfeit, and there is a genuine, as sure as you live.

If you only look on, it will seem foolishness to you as we praise God, and as people get filled with the Holy Ghost and get gifts; but it is Jesus first, last and all the time. We hold up Jesus and praise His Name. We see bright, happy faces; we see pain go out of bodies, and we go home rejoicing, feeling we have Heaven here below.

Resist the devil in the name of the Lord. Sometimes when I am standing up preaching, the devil would make me drop dead, if I would listen to him. I resist in the name of the Lord, and he has to go. We have such a wonderful Saviour!

You shall lay hands on the sick, it does not say where. He commissioned me and I obey God rather than man. Neither the deadly serpent or any poison shall harm you. Ye shall cast out devils; I believe every bit of it, and I have seen it all. Hallelujah!

I got my commission from the Lord, and I did not go until He called me; nor until I was baptized and qualified; I get my message from Heaven. I do not know what I am going to talk about; but God knows everyone here, and just what every one needs, and He will give you something.

The power Jesus promised His disciples, when He told them to tarry at Jerusalem, was to change their lives and qualify them to transact the business of Heaven. After they were baptized with the Holy Ghost they would be true to their Master and be witnesses for Him.

They went down from that mountain praising the Lord! They were filled with a great joy, as they went back to Jerusalem to await the fulfillment of the promise. They had confidence in God; He said so, and they began to praise.

Are you full of joy, having not a doubt about Jesus being your Lord and Saviour? You want power to do the work of God; you want to be clothed with power? God says He will baptize with fire, bestowing wisdom, knowledge and gifts.
