Having nothing, yet possessing everything.
We went out to breakfast with some friends at Llanelly, and then walked back to the station, still not with sufficient money and now the time for the train had come. The Spirit then spoke to me and said, “If you had the money, what would you do?” “Take my place in the queue at the booking office,” I said. “Well, are you not preaching that My promises are equal to current coin? You had better take your place in the queue.” So there was nothing I could do except obey. There were about a dozen people before me, passing by the booking office one by one. The devil kept on telling me, “Now you have only a few people in front of you, and when your turn comes, you will have to walk through. You have preached much about Moses with the Res Sea in front and the Egyptians behind; but now you are the one that is shut in.” “Yes, shut in,” I answered, “but like Moses, I’ll be gloriously led out!”
When there were only two before me, a man stepped out of the crowed and said, “I’m sorry I can’t wait any longer. I must open my shop.” He put thirty shillings in my hand! It was most glorious. After I had the tickets, the people who came with us to the train began to give gifts to us, but the Lord had held them back until we had been tested. We were singing all the way to London.
