Souls That Are In Prison Now (63-1110M)

1-1
Thank you. Let’s bow our heads just a moment. Heavenly Father, we are
grateful to Thee today for this privilege of assembling together one
more time, knowing that someday we will assemble for our last time as
mortals, and then we’ll assemble in a glorified state with Thee; and
all the redeemed of all ages shall be assembled there.
Oh, our hearts beat high in great anticipation, waiting for that hour
to arrive. With that, all fears vanish from us. We have nothing to
fear, nothing to dread. We look forward to the promise that the eternal
God has made us, and we know that it’s Truth. That is why we live. We
live for that–that hour, that time, when this mortal will be changed,
and we’ll be made like Him and there’ll be no more sickness, no more
sorrow, no more heartaches.

Oh, it’ll all be over then. And with joy of heart, we in faith and
courage, we look forward for that day. That’s why we’re gathered here
today, Lord: To confess our wrongs and ask for mercy. That’s why we
face this altar this morning, because that we know we’re mortal, and
there’s many mistakes in us, and we’re full of fault. But we come to
confess our wrongs and then look to our heavenly Father with open
hearts, for the blessings and renewal of strength and faith, that He
would give us in this hour, as we have assembled here according to the
promise, “in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” For we claim that we
have passed from death unto Life by His promise, and we are caught up
in a heavenly atmosphere, setting with Him now.
May He teach us this morning the things that He’d have us to know. And
give us the Bread of Life that we might be sustained for the future
that lays before us. Grant it, Lord. This is our prayer that we ask in
Jesus Christ’s Name. Amen. May be seated

Good morning to everyone. It’s very good to be assembled here with you
again this morning in this heavenly atmosphere of worship.
Just a teeny bit late, we had a–some real, real bad calls just a few
minutes ago: a boy laying there dying; and just as sure as I’m standing
here, the Lord touched his body, sent him on the road. And a boy
standing here (which is my cousin’s son.)… They were really Catholic
to begin with, but they went to mass this morning, and something told
them to come here, and so they… There’s a change. So they’re–they
are coming out to the house and prepare for water baptism.

So then there’s a–there’s just wonderful things that our Lord does all
the time. He’s just constantly doing things. They come to get in, and
they couldn’t get in. They said, “There was just no way to get in.”
I said, “Well, do you want to talk to me?” And I said, “Just come on up to the house, and we’ll talk that over there.”
