Greater was He in that prophet than he that was in the lion.
Greater was He that was in the Hebrew children. Greater was He that was in them, than he that was in the fire. For they were throwed into the fire; and He that was in them was with them, and kept the fire from burning them when the furnace was heated seven times hotter than it ever was heated. Is that right? Greater was He that was with the Hebrew children than he that was in the world. Nebuchadnezzar, l believe it was, that had the furnace heated up seven times hotter than it ever was. Inspired by the devil, to destroy these three people, because they were standing for the Word of God; and threw them into this furnace, seven times hotter than it ever was, and it couldn't even burn them. For greater was He that was with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, than he that's in the world. Absolutely! Oh, my!
Greater was He that was in Elijah, than the brassy skies was. Because he could bring rain out of a brassy skies that hadn't rained for 3 years and 6 months.
Greater is He that was in Elijah than death. For, when it come time for him to die, God seen that old, tired prophet. He had been rebuking Jezebel and all of her paint and modern things, and he was kind of tired. So He didn't even let him walk home, and like he did to Enoch. He sent a chariot and picked him up, and took him up Home.
Greater is He that was in Elijah, than he that was in Jerusalem and in Judaea, and in the mountains. Greater was He is in Elijah than death itself. Greater is He that was in Elijah than the grave; because he escaped the grave. He escaped death and he just went up home in a chariot. See, greater was He and He was in Elijah. You say, "Oh, well, that was a great man." Wait a minute. The Bible said ,"He was a man that had like passions like you and I." That's right. But when he prayed, he believed he got what he prayed for; What Jesus said to us, "When you pray, believe that you receive what you ask for, it shall be done." He prayed earnestly that it wouldn't rain. It didn't rain for 3 years and 6 months. See? Greater was He that was in Elijah, than nature.
Then what about healing the sick? See? Greater is He that's in you than the sickness. See? Because that's an interruption, interrupting the very laws of God, sickness is. Well, For "greater" is He that's in you, that's a Healer and Creator, than the devil that's interrupted the very program of your life. "Greater is He that's in you, than he that's in the world." See? Greater was He that was in Elijah.
Greater was He in Isaiah, than time was; or any of those prophets, because they seen past the time. See?
Greater is He that was in Job, than even the skin worms, and death and the grave. Because by a vision he saw the coming of the Lord, and said, "My redeemer liveth, and at the last day he'll stand up on the earth; and though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God." See? Greater is He that was in Job, than death; greater, 'cause death tried to take him and he couldn't do it. It couldn't do it because he said, "I'll rise up again." And he did. He did.
Listen, I wish we had time to go further on this. But I'd like to ask the question that I heard remarked the other day about, "Christ in you." Now, don't let it rest up on something that you've done; say, "I felt a little shiver. I spoke in tongues. I danced in the spirit." Nothing against that now. That's all right. See? But don't rest up on that. See? Your life's got to be This. The Word. This is It. You and This has to become one, see? And then This manifest Itself. See?
