Courage: God don't want cowards. He can't use you if you're afraid to take His Word and believe Him; He wants gallant men, won't pay no attention to nothing but what the Lord says. That's the kind He has to move with. Regardless of what the church says, what the pastor says, what the church stands for, He stands for God and righteousness and His Word. That's the man God will send these days for His revival that His people are praying for. God called man P:29 [58-1005E]
Now, I believe that God is everywhere. And as I looked at the eagle, I thought, "Now, what would that old bird raise up there to stop me from shouting? And I happened to notice him, that one thing, he seemed like he wasn't afraid. That's one thing that's godly about him.God don't want cowards. God wants men to be men, women to be women. He wants Christians to be Christians. Make your confession and stand there. That's the idea. Not scared to say this and scared to say that. Keep your convictions. Be what you are. That's what God wants you to do. Be what He wants you to be and don't be cowardly about it. And then I seen there. God loves bravery. And I thought, "Mr. Bird, do you know what? You act like you're so brave, but did you know I could shoot you if I wanted to?" That didn't bother him a bit. I thought, "Well, I'll just see how much game you've got in you." And I grabbed my rifle, and I noticed him, his big wings moving around. And I thought, "Well, he is not even scared if I've got my rifle in my hand." But of course, if he could've read my mind, he knowed I was admiring him, but his bravery. But he knew... I seen him feeling those wings like they do, the feathers back and forth. Now, he had a God-given gift, and that was two wings that he knowed he could be in the top of those trees before I could ever get that rifle to my shoulder. And he had confidence in it. God in His Word P:29 [57-0323]
I looked at this big eagle; I thought, "Well, what makes him so brave?" I thought, "Say, fellow, are you scared?" He just... I seen he wasn't scared. I thought, "There's God right there." God's not a coward. And He can't use cowards that's afraid to testify of your healing or your salvation; He can't use you; you're no good. See? He's got somebody that's got a backbone in them that'll stand up and say right's right and wrong's wrong. That's the kind of people He can use. That's admired by anybody. That's admired among men by women. No matter how ugly she is, or what she might be, he will admire her if she holds her place, don't care what she is. That's right. It's admired among many, among soldiers, everywhere. It's among--in God's army, how that God admires, like David after His own heart. Show us the Father it'll satisfy P:56 [56-0422]
I can see Jairus, a little priest, been a nice man. He believed Jesus, but he had to keep it still on account of his associates. So many secret believers today like that, they're afraid to get put out of their church (See?): cowards. God can't use that. God wants a man that can stand there. If it takes death, seal it. Don't fear him who destroys the body, but Him that destroys the body and sends the soul to hell. Sirs we would see Jesus P:69 [61-1224]
God don't want cowards. God wants brave men. He don't want you to say here in the tabernacle you're healed, and go out there, and meet some fanatic that don't believe in Divine healing... Yeah, he's a fanatic, that's right. He calls you one, but it's vice versa. Now, and you're afraid to tell him about your healing? You're afraid to testify at your work about the saving grace of Jesus Christ, about having the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Ha! God don't want people like that. No, sir.
God's provided way P:35 [53-0513]
