If the case may be that the devil is placing thoughts in your mind about a certain thing, how may it be overcome or got rid of?
68 Take the very vice versa from it. If the devil makes you think that–that–that you are...If you know you’re a Christian, and he tries to make you think you’re not a Christian, just take the versa, say, “I am a Christian.” As long as your experience matches in God’s Word say, “I’m a Christian.” Anything else, the same way.
When you answer this, please pray for me to overcome this, as I am not by myself.
69 God grant your overcoming, ever who you are. May your thoughts just go right back the other side and say, “I am a Christian; I am a believer. Satan, you have no hold on me.”
70 Frankly, I’m standing right here now saying the same thing, keep from fainting right here at the pulpit. That’s right. Four or five times I’ve almost pitched over on the pulpit. That’s the truth. God knows that’s right.
