“Look how beautifully this [table] is lighted. Do you know the world lived in darkness for five thousand years and they had no way of lighting a place except by torches. But there was just as much electricity five thousand years ago as there is today.
.
Somebody found how to handle it, discovered the laws that governed it. To this day, there is not a man who can tell us what electricity is, or what it’s substance is. We know we can control it this way and guide it that way, and make it do this and that, but what it is nobody can tell us.
.
But somewhere on the river, there is a thing called a dynamo, and it draws the electricity out of the air, and transmits it over the wires and even wireless.
.
Do you know what prayer is? It is not the begging God for this and that. The first thing we have to do is to get you beggars to quit begging until a little faith moves your souls.
.
PRAYER is God’s divine dynamo. The spirit of man is God’s divine dynamo. When you go to pray, that spirit of yours gets into motion…not ten thousand revolutions or one hundred thousand. The voltage of heaven comes to your heart, and flows from your hands. It burns into the souls of men, and God Almighty moves on their behalf.
.
You talk about the voltage of heaven and the power of God. Why. There is lightening in the soul of Jesus. The Lightning’s of Jesus heal men by their touch, sin displaced, disease flees when the power of God approaches.
.
And her we are quibbling and wondering if Jesus Christ is big enough for our needs.
.
Let’s take the bars down. Let God come into your life. And in the Name of Jesus your heart will not be satisfied with an empty Pentecost, but the light of God and the lightenings of Jesus will flood your life.”
