The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 311

Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God: Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever: (Psalm 146:5-6) 28 Do you know, that body that you’re living in this morning, was here ten thousand years before one speck of life ever laid on the earth. When God had this old missile hanging out yonder, turning it around the sun and revolving it around this a way, and was creating in there calcium, potash, and petroleums, and so forth, He had in His great mind then that you’d set at this table this morning. Oh, hallelujah, He’s the infinite God. When a carpenter goes to build a house, how does he do? Lay out all of his lumber first. He’s got in his mind just what he’s going to build. God had, before the world was ever had a speck of life on it, He had your body laying right there. If it didn’t, where did it come from? That’s the reason He was twisting it, and rolling it, and turning it. He would have it to the sun this way and it’d make potash, and He’d turn it back this way, and it’d make calcium. He’d turn it back this way, it would make petroleum. Oh, blessed, be His holy Name. 29 What we got to fear about? We should be the freest and happiest people there is anywhere. And we don’t have to guess about it; God’s in our midst and proves it. That’s right. And it’s according to His Word and His Spirit. Now let’s take it. Our bodies, before there was even the earth was finished being formed, our bodies that we’re living in right now, was laying on the earth: potash, calcium, petroleum, so forth. Now, let’s take a little picture so we won’t miss it. And after the earth had been shaped and all of it laying there just a—a bleached desert, never had life on it, never was nothing called life, but all the material was laying there to make our bodies. And I can hear God say to the great Holy Spirit, “Go forth now and brood over the earth.” Now, we know the word “brood” is “to—to mother, like the hen her brood, or—or to coo like a dove calling to its mate.” “Go brood over the earth.” 30 Now, we’ll have to use a imagination here as to make a drama. Then the great Holy Spirit went forth, and spread forth His wings over the earth, and begin to brood for a purpose. And that was to bring forth something to project what God was. As I said the other night, “Which was first, a sinner or a Saviour?” What’s all this about anyhow? Which was first a—a Healer or sickness? Why, certainly a Healer, cer… Well, why did—why did we ever become sinners then? It had to be that way. If God is a Saviour, He had to have something to save. So there’s nothing wrong; it’s just all working His way. Now, I don’t—couldn’t say this to sinners; I’m saying it to ministers (See?) and children of God. It’s all working all right, no matter what we do, or do not do; it’s going to come out all right. ’Cause what God foreknew He ordained. Now notice, then as It’s a moving around, as—as—as it is. It’s coming out all right, there’s no need of us worrying, because it’s going to be okay. 58-0619b - "Ye Must Be Born Again" Rev.
