1 Thank you, Brother Reed. Sorry to be a little hoarse tonight yet, but I guess I just preach too hard. But the first time, I've tried to speak that way for amount of years, I guess. But our Lord knows all things, so He'll work all things together for good, won't He?
I was happy that Brother Reed could speak in my place tonight. And now, we want you all to be very much in prayer. Glad you're out. Shows that you love our Lord, or you wouldn't be here on a rainy night like this. And even some people were standing outside, so it shows that they love the Lord. And when the desire comes to people's hearts to serve the Lord like that, certainly God will not forsake them. God will certainly bless them. So I trust that tonight will be a great night, that many of you who are sick and suffering will find deliverance in the Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Thank you, Brother Reed. I just found out one of the main things that made me hoarse. And I can tell it already. I might as well say this: It was that fan back there. I'm not used to it. Ordinarily a person that's bald-headed as I am... A man who is bald-headed naturally has a real hard scalp, the pores of the skin close up.
A barber put some stuff on my hair, took the hair out, so my... See, my soft skin just as soft as it can be, and all the pores are in there. The least bit of perspiration, oh, my! It has got me that quick. The barber put some stuff on to take dandruff out. He did, hair, too. So, if the pores was closed down, like natural, like nature would do it, it wouldn't bother me. But it isn't. The pores are still there.
So, somebody said, "Well, if you go over to some Thomas system, or something, they give a treatment."
I said, "Yeah, I done had too many treatments now."

3 So, it's all right. So, I found out last night... When I stand still just a little bit, and no one will ever know the strain that's on you, when that anointing comes down. Every muscle... I stand here, even to the socks in my shoes can be wrung out with perspiration, just standing here like that. That's the strain that you're under. Every night, when I go home, usually, I just stand under a shower for a long time, kind of get my feeling back like that. Just goes through an awful strain. It's kind of hard to understand that. We can't understand it. We just have to believe it, that's all.
God is not to be understood, He's to be believed. We can't understand it. We just believe it.

4 We have two more nights, according to our schedule, to be with you dear people. I know Monday night is kind of a hard night. Maybe, tomorrow night, the Lord willing, I hope to be able to speak for you. Tonight I want to read some Scripture. And in this Scripture, I want you to listen closely. It's found in Saint John, the first chapter, beginning with the 44th verse.
Now Philip was of Bethsaida, a city of Andrew and Peter.
Philip findeth Nathanael, and said unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
... Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come ... see.
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said unto him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!
Nathanael said unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before ... Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.
Nathanael answered and said unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

John 1:44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

John 1:45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

John 1:46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

John 1:47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

John 1:48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

John 1:49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

5 Shall we bow our heads just a moment for a word of prayer.
Our Father, we know in Thy Word as believing children, all things work together for good to them that love God and are called according to His purpose. Now we've gathered here tonight for no other purpose but to magnify Thee, and to get sinners to seek Thee and call upon Thee while they can; that, perhaps, You may have mercy upon them, to save them from sin. That's our first motive.
Secondarily, many of Your children are sick and afflicted. Many are desperately in need. Some here tonight, no doubt, with such diseases as heart trouble, cancer, tuberculosis, will die pretty soon, if You don't come to their rescue. Your servants, the doctors, have done all they can do. But they can't seem to stop it. Just as the brass serpent in the wilderness had to be lifted up, when Moses was taught in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. Wonderful doctors.

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

6 But the serpent was raised up for a compound reason, that they might be forgiven and healed. So help us tonight, Lord. As Thou did say here on earth, "As Moses lifted up the brass serpent," the same way: be lifted up, the Son of man; same reason: forgiveness of sin, healing of the body. Then if the serpent being the shadow had healing in it, how much more does the anti-type have: both salvation and healing.
You said, "As Moses, so will I be." We're trying to point that to the people.
And now Thou has sent some into the church, apostles; secondarily, prophets, gifts of healings, working of miracles, teachers, many other wonderful gifts that You... When You ascended on High, You led captivity captive, and give gifts and unto men. And we're thankful, Lord, that Thou has seen fit in this days to restore these gifts unto the church, that we might cause the unbelieving educated world, like it was in the days of Noah, before the antediluvian destruction. How smart. How they could build those pyramids, sphinx, embalm bodies that look natural even till today. Great things that they could do. Smart. But by the foolishness of preaching you save those which would believe.
God be merciful tonight. Help us to work with every tool that we have for the saving of the household of faith. For we ask it in the name of Thy beloved Child Jesus Christ. Amen.
(Handkerchiefs which are laying here for the sick...)

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

1 Corinthians 1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

1 Corinthians 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

Ephesians 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.

7 I would just like to call your attention while I can't talk but just a little for tonight, but like to call your attention to the remarks of this religious man who came to see Jesus of Nazareth. When Philip found Nathanael, as soon as Philip was converted, and had seen what Jesus was doing, it was in the early days of Jesus' ministry. And when he saw what He was doing, he hurries off to find a friend of his. Now, isn't that just simply true to what it is today? When we find Jesus Christ, we like to tell our friends.
I wonder if you can hear me all right back in the back of the building. Can you hear me through this mike? Thank you. Over in there, can you hear me all right? Thank you.
And when he went to his friend, his friend was a believer in God. He was a religious man, very fine cultured man, Nathanael. Jesus declared it when He found him. But he said, "Come see who I have found, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

John 1:45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

8 Why, Nathanael knowing what a polluted city that Nazareth was, full of robbers, thieves, he said, "Could there be any good thing come out of Nazareth?"
He said, "Come see." In other words, "Just come see for yourself." That's the best way. And I think if any man will approach God as Moses did, with his shoes off ... whatever it might be, in reverence...

John 1:46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

9 Friends, tonight I believe if any man will come in this day ... or, tonight reverently before God, and say, "Now, I'm not going to take any of my thoughts, I'm just going to open my heart to You, God. And You reveal Yourself to me. I want to see." I believe God will reveal Himself to the people that wants to find Him. He has never disappointed anyone. And then, could you notice these two friends, going along?
I can hear, maybe, Philip say to Nathanael, "Now, look, Nathanael, this man is praying for the sick down there now." For Jesus ... His fame had not yet got great into the country. He was just starting out. And He didn't claim to be some great person. He give all the praise to God.

10 He said, "It's not Me that doeth the works; it's My Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works." And He said, "Now..." If you notice Him, He was very humble, and a Man of sorrow acquainted with grief. He didn't claim to have any scholarship. But His simple teaching confounded the Pharisees and the scholars of that day, because they only taught as one from theology; but Jesus seemed to be able to have favor with God that would confirm what He was saying. Now, there's when truth is: when a man says something and God backs it up.
And when He finally arrived at Jesus, standing in the prayer line... Let's give a little drama. Say, Jesus is praying for the sick; many coming along, and He praying. He seen Nathanael coming down along the line. And He said, "Behold an Israelite in whom there is no guile."
If I should express that to ... say, I'd turn around and say, "This man standing here," if I had never seen Him, I'd say, "here's an honest man, a Christian believer, truthful."

Isaiah 53:3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

John 1:47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

11 Well, that kind of astonished him, the Israelite, Nathanael. He turned and looked at Him. He said, "When did You know me, Rabbi, or, Teacher? Rabbi is interpreted as a "master," or a "teacher." Like we say today, "reverend" or "elder," something. "Whence knowest Thou me, Rabbi? Or here, I'm a stranger to You. How did You know I was a believer? How did You know I was (as we'd say today) a Christian."
Why, Jesus said, "Before Nathanael called you, or before you come to the prayer meeting, I saw you under that fig tree."

John 1:48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.

12 Now, let's bring that in terms of today. Now, what would a scholar of today say? "Well, that Man is a mind reader? That's mental telepathy," or some name like that. And they didn't do any better that day. They pinned the same thing on Him. They said, "He's Beelzebub, the chief of the fortunetellers," or, the devils, you know.
But not Nathanael. Nathanael was a just man. When he knew that there was something he had never met before, he said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." He fell before Him.
"Why" He said, "Nathanael, you believe because I told you that I seen You under the tree? Why," He said, "you'll even see greater things than this."
And then Jesus in all of His ministry, He never at any time give glory to Himself, or said anything about Himself that was great. He always magnified the Creator of His being.

Matthew 12:24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.

Mark 3:22 And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.

Luke 11:15 But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils.

John 1:49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

John 1:50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

13 Now, Jesus in flesh was Deity. God overshadowed a virgin and created a blood cell. We all know that the child, or the ... comes from the male sex. The germ of life of any thing comes from the male. Like a hen can lay an egg, but if she hasn't been with the male bird, it'll never hatch. An old mother bird can lay a nest full of eggs, (springtime now), but if she hasn't been with the male bird, they're not fertile, they'll never hatch, no matter how much she warms them and hovers them. She can stay on that nest until she gets so poor she can't fly off. But they'll never hatch; they'll rot.
That's what I think is the matter with a whole lot of our churches today, friends. We just got a nest full of eggs that has never germitized. We're just warming them up and calling them church members and things. We need to clean the nest and start over. Don't you think?

14 If you haven't been with the mate Jesus Christ and been born of a supernatural, you can't believe the supernatural. And when a man is born of the Spirit of God... God is a Creator. And when part of God is ... I'm a part of Charles Branham. He's my father. He looked like me ... or, I look like him, rather. We're about the same size. And a whole lot of features, because I'm an offspring of his. And if I become an offspring of God in my soul, then my soul is liken something on the order of God. It believes the supernatural. It believes for anything. See what I mean?
"Believeth all things, hopeth all things," see. All right. Then if a man has ever been in contact with God and really been born-again, you talk to him about divine healing, sure he believes it. Certainly. "Do you believe in miracles?"
"Sure." See, he's a part of God, He believes anything can happen with God, see. And he's not superstitious.

1 Corinthians 13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

15 But a man who's just got theology, well, he'd say, "Oh, I believe the days of miracles is passed." He pushes it off with some kind of a big gutter pipe, to run it off his fields. He doesn't want it. What a pity!
Well, God said we'd have them, and we got them. You can't stop it; the Bible said we would have them. So they're here, outnumbered us by many. But if you'll notice, when Jesus was here, they called Him a fanatic, called Him crazy, and called Him a devil. Why, He said, "If they've called the master of the house, Beelzebub, how much more will they call His disciples?" But watch His life when He went along.
He talked to a woman at the well one day. He told her just where her trouble was. She went and told somebody else what He had said; caused a whole city to come to God. Philip went down to the same city, baptized them, and they had a wonderful time.
Watch Him!

Matthew 10:25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?

John 4:29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?

John 4:30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

16 I see Him pass through the pool of Bethesda; crippled, lame, twisted, blind people laying there. Walked right through the crowd till He found a man laying on a pallet, with sugar diabetes or some disease. Wasn't going to hurt him. He had had it thirty-eight years. Healed that man and went on.
Why, the Jews questioned Him (Saint John 5:19.) He said, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing in himself, but what He sees the Father doing: whatever thing the Father doeth, He showeth to the Son. He will show you greater than the healing of this man that you may marvel." See what I mean? Now, He said, "The things that I do, yet a little while," listen close, "a little while and the world seeth Me no more. Yet, ye shall see Me." Who? The believers! "You'll see Me..." Just that? No. "You shall see Me, for I will be with you, even in you to the end of the world." Same Jesus.

Matthew 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

John 5:5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.

John 5:6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?

John 5:7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.

John 5:8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.

John 5:9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

John 5:19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

John 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.

17 And I, as His servant, and you as His servant, and we as brothers and sister, offsprings of God tonight, declare I unto you that Jesus Christ is in this building tonight. Could you imagine the joy in the hearts of those disciples who went to Emmaus, after talking with Him all day, and yet didn't know Him? Then all at once, He made Himself known to them, by something He done, just the way He did it. And they rejoiced and was happy. Could you imagine the joy they had, living with the resurrected Christ on that wonderful Easter Yule time?
If you're not in that state tonight, you're living under your God-given privilege. You have a right tonight to enjoy the full blessings of all that the apostles had. All that was in the early church will remain in the church, because all that was in the church was Jesus Christ. And He promised His Word. And the things that you see done here, night after night, is only to fulfill that which was spoken of by Jesus Christ the Lord: "I will be with you, in you, to the end of the world. And the things that I do, shall you, also. Believest thou this?"
Do you believe that to be the truth? Let's bow our heads for a word of prayer.

Matthew 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

18 Great Master of life, we come in the name of Jesus Thy Son to offer thanksgiving to Thee for Thy Word. We can think of the apostles, before they were made apostles. Peter, fishing one night; Andrew, the sons of Zebedee, and how they had toiled all night, and had took nothing. Sitting on the banks washing their nets, very much discouraged. Then they looked, coming down the bank, and here come a lovely person, a few men following Him.
I can see the women leaving their washings, the men stopping the ox in the field, coming down to the banks of Galilee to listen at Him. There was something different about Him. He had authority from God.
And after His speaking, He had borrowed one of their boats, which He was to use as a pulpit, a little old dirty fish boat, the greatest pulpit. There He spoke to the multitudes. Then after borrowing the boat, He said, "Thrust out, Simon, into the deep. Let down for the draught."

Luke 5:2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

Luke 5:4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

19 "Let down for the draught? We've dragged here through here all night. There's nothing in here. But at Thy Word, Lord, I'll let down the net."
O God, there it is! "At Thy Word, Lord. If there's none there, God's Word will put something there. We know that's truth, Lord. You wouldn't say there was some there, unless You was able to perform that which You had spoken. There's many men and women here tonight, Lord, no doubt, that has drug through every hospital and every doctor's office in the city, and around about. They went everywhere trying to find help. They're sick, Lord, they're dying. Demons of sickness is eating your life away. Heart trouble is killing you. They went out in the coal sheds, they've been out in the bushes, they've been to the altar, praying. Had their lovely pastor, different ministers, to pray for them. Still, seemingly, can't catch on.

Luke 5:5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

20 But let this be the time that they'll say like Peter, "At Thy Word, Lord, I'm going to let down the net. I'm going to trust You right tonight. This is the night. This is the time. From this night, I will trust You. I'll set my affections on things above. We know that Thy Word says that You're the High Priest sitting at the right hand of His Majesty to make intercessions upon our confession. What we say that You've done, that's what You do. But if we do not confess it, if we're afraid, then You can't help us."
So, we pray, God, that You will give each man and woman, boy or girl in here tonight courage, real conviction, faith that'll look up there and see that Son of God sitting there in His Majesty. The power of His Spirit moving in His church, then not be afraid. Say, "By His stripes I'm healed; I go believing it." Then You're the High Priest. You'll start confessing that in Heaven, just when we confess it here. But You can't do it until we first say You've done it. For it's a confession, and that means "say the same thing." We have to say what You say about it. We've already been healed, so we accept it. Send the Angel of God, Lord, the great Leader, the Holy Spirit, to guide Your church into all truth tonight.
Help Your poor, unprofitable, unworthy servant standing here, Lord, as I try to represent you to the people, for I ask it in Christ's name. Amen.
[Break in tape.]

Luke 5:5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

Romans 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

Hebrews 8:1 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;

21 Then He's here. Is that right? He said, "Wherever two or three are gathered," no matter how small a group, two or three, "I will be in their midst." Want anything, they ask, shall receive it. Now that's either right, or it's wrong.
Jesus said, "If ye abide in Me, and My Word in you, you can ask what you will, it'll be done to you. Whatsoever things you desire when you pray, believe you receive it." Watch the order of the Word now. You believe now, you receive it, it shall be given to you, see. He can't do nothing for you, until first you believe it, and say He has done it. Let me let that soak real deep.

Matthew 18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

22 How many correctly understands that? Hebrews 3:1. No matter how sick you are, what about it. You've got to first believe He does it and then confess that He has done it before He can even go to work on it. How many knows that? When you come to the altar to pray to be forgiven your sins, it isn't because you cry, it isn't because you confess. It's because you believe. And when you believe and stand up and testify... Now watch!
You go outside after you accepted Christ, the old crowd says, "You're no different. There's nothing different." But you believe you're different.
Well, if you go say, "No, I guess I didn't get it," well, you just got another trip to the altar coming.

Hebrews 3:1 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;

23 But when you believe you have, you say, "Yes, I am." Then you believe you're a Christian. You can't show nothing that you are, but you believe you are. You believe you are. And then when you confess that you are, and when you confess Him, and He confesses you, He's a High Priest working on what? Not on your crying, not on your repenting, not on your faith; but on your confession. No matter how much faith you got, it will never do you any good, till you put works with it. For faith without works is dead. Is that right?
Just like the body without the spirit---it's dead. Then when you say, "I believe Christ," then accept it, go saying so. Then you believe you're a Christian, you say you're a Christian, you act like a Christian, you associate with those that are Christians, and it works righteousness. After a while everybody knows you are a Christian, because you hold your confession. You act like it. You go down the street, not saying, "Well, I'm just ... maybe, I'm a Christian." No, you go down say, "I am a Christian." You're bold with it. Then He's bold with it, see.

James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

James 2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

24 He can only do as you say, because He's a High Priest of what you confess. And He's there before the presence of the Majesty to make good anything that His redemptive blessings calls for, His sacrifice. That's what He paid for, and stood in there to make good to you anything that you say that you accepted what He has done. What has He done?
He was wounded for your transgressions. Is that right? Let's quote it together. "He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquity: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we were healed." Is that right?

Isaiah 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

25 Now, any of those things, if you're weary, upset, fretting, nervous, sick, sin, whatever it is, when you accept that from your heart, go to confess it, and saying it's right, God is right there to make it right when you go to confessing it. But if you're afraid to say so, and afraid to act upon your confession, no matter how many times you're prayed for, you will never get well. You got to believe it first, see. He's the High Priest of what you confess that He has done for you.
How many understands that now? Raise your hands, see. That's right. Only when you say so. Now, you are prayed for, and you say, "Now I believe. Yes, sir." Now, you can't say you believe until you really do believe. If you do, you're doing something not right. You can't say you believe until really in your heart you believe. But when you firmly have prayed through and really believe, then you can say, "I believe." Then you can accept it. And now, remember, He's there, will make good anything that you believe in your heart that He has done, and will confess it. Then everywhere you go, testify of your healing. Say so. Believe so. Tell others so.

26 And, friends, it'll never fail. I've seen carcinomas cancer healed with it. And I know that it... You know what a carcinomas cancer is? All right. We got dozens, yes, piles of letters like that, from that type of cancer. Files full of testimonies, doctors' statements: lame, halt, blind, cancer-ridden. Everything that can be thought of, in the way of diseases, been healed. Faith!
Now, preach the Word; that's one way. Then, God has other gifts.
Now, may the Holy Spirit come, tonight, and declare to you that that same Jesus that resurrected from the dead is here. And may He send His Angel to His humble servant to manifest His divine presence to you. God bless you.
All right, sister. [Gap in the audio].
... all that is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all of thine iniquities; who healeth all of thy diseases;
... I was happy when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

Psalm 103:1 A Psalm of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Psalm 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

Psalm 103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

Psalm 122:1 A Song of degrees of David. I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.

27 Is it a disappointment, mother? I seen you sit down. Your prayer card wasn't called it; is that it? You wasn't in that number? [The lady speaks.] Oh, you wasn't in! Well, I have no way of knowing, you know. I tell you what I will do. If you'll believe me to be God's servant with all your heart, and will accept what I tell you about Jesus Christ, He will heal you.
Poor thing ... I seen her walk back with a real disappointed look on her face, and sit down. She had a prayer card, and she did something with it. I thought, Poor woman, she maybe feels that maybe she was left out. No, no. No! God leaves no one out. These people here... Them standing in that prayer line, is not one sign that any of them will be healed, not a one of them. There's not one thing can be done with this audience here what can be ... for these here, what can be done out there, see. It's for every one of you. You believe that?

28 What if I'd stand here by the Spirit of God and tell you what's wrong with you? Would you believe? Would you be... I don't know you. But what if I, by the Spirit of God... If I be anointed with Christ's spirit now, the Angel of God which you see here, He knows what's wrong with you. If I'd tell you, would you accept your healing? You would do it? You have stomach trouble. Is that right? If that's right, stand on your feet, just for a witness to say, that's true. Now, you can go on home and eat what you want.
Don't doubt. Have faith.
Now, the Holy Spirit puts me... And all spirits here are subject to me now, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Now, be reverent. (All right, Billy. Is this...?)

29 How do you do. We're strangers, lady. Do you believe with all your heart? You do? If there was anything that I could do to help you, as a minister I would do it. For I feel sorry for people who are sick. But the only thing that I could do would be point them to the Lord Jesus. He's the One who does the healing. Now, if you and I are strangers in this life, but, yet, I know that we are brothers and sister, for you are a Christian. That's true, isn't it? Now, isn't that just about what our Lord said to Nathanael? "An Israelite indeed!" May I say this more to you then? As a Christian... You're not only a Christian, but you're a teacher making Christians, a minister. Is that right? I see you at the pulpit speaking the Word.
You're plagued with an evil spirit of nervousness, causes you to have much trouble, hinders you in your speaking. Well, I'm going to tell you what did that. You had a accident one time, in an automobile. Is that right? ["That's right."] That caused your trouble to start. Do you believe you're in His presence? ["I do."] You believe this same One that spoke to Nathanael is standing here somewhere now? ["Yes, I do."] Well, go in the name of the Lord Jesus. You'll get well. [Unclear words].

30 Good evening. I suppose that you and I are strangers, too. ["Yes."] We are. And I do not know you. I've never seen you. But, there is Someone who is near here now, whose presence that You're aware that there is something near you that's not you. And He's the One who knows all about you. He's the One who fed you all your life, and knows all about you.
You're also suffering from nervousness, aren't you? ["Yes."] Very nervous. One thing, it's the time of life for you to be nervous. ["Yes."] Menopause! ["Yes."] That's common among women at your age. May the Holy Spirit speak something else that would be ... that wouldn't seem so natural, as you think psychology to look at you and say, "Well, her age would do that." I never picked that up through psychology. You know what I understand [unclear word]. Is that true?

31 You're fearing something, because you're kind of afraid you got cancer. ["Yes."] Isn't that right? ["Yes."] Say, you've had an operat... You've had many ... you've had several operations. ["Yes."] Isn't that right? ["Yes, it is."] I see you move from the hospital back, back, and back. I'm going to say at least four or five times, you've been in the hospital. ["Five times."] Five times.
Here's another thing. You have a growth in you now. ["Yes."] Just been examined. ["Yes."] That growth is in the rectal, is it? ["Yes."]
Lord, have mercy on our sister. Bless her, dear God. May this be [unclear words]. May she go and be made well. I ask it Jesus Christ's name [unclear words]. Bless you, sister. Go and [unclear words].

32 Be reverent. Is this your patient? Excuse me. Many times when the meeting is getting along now to the... You don't realize, friends, you're in two worlds, see. And I'm not beside myself. I'm all right. I know what I'm doing. But it just upsets you. No need of trying to explain it. You can't. Now, be reverent.
You're the man, are you, sir? I believe we are strangers, aren't we? Do you believe me to be God's prophet? ["Yes, sir."] You do? If I be His prophet, and His Spirit is near here now... You've come to me for help. And I could only help you in what He would give me to help you with. As far as healing you, He has already did that when He died for you. But the only thing that I could do would be help you to have faith to believe. Something that might be said or done, that would cause more faith for you. Isn't that true?
You suffer with a stomach trouble. ["Yes."] Is that right? I see you refusing different foods, as you're passing before me now. And they got something around your arm at a doctor's... Oh, it's a blood pressure. Instead of it coming up, it's going down. You have a low blood pressure. That is true, isn't it? ["Yes, sir."] That's gone from me. Here's another thing. One of the greatest things that you have need of now is Jesus Christ as personal Saviour. Isn't that right? You have never yet become a Christian. See, the same Jesus that told the woman at the well that she had did wrong, so is He telling you now.

33 Don't you want to accept Him now? You will now as your Saviour? ["Yes."] That you might know: Your home... Here's something I see... That you might understand: Haven't you got a wife that's got arthritis? ["Yes."]
Now I see her ... you take... She is a short, kind of a heavy-set woman. ["Yes."] Is that right? ["Yes, sir."] And she wears a two piece suit that's gray. Is that right? ["Yes."] Is that true? ["Yes."] Your sins are forgiven you, friend, my brother. And you go now and eat what you want to, and God be with you. [Unclear words.]
(Where did the man go [unclear words] talk to you [unclear words]. That man was a sinner. Wasn't he, somebody here, a few minutes ago, was a sinner. [Someone speaks to Brother Branham.] Oh, all right. Patient...)

34 Good evening. We are also strangers, aren't we? I have never seen you. But do you believe that you're standing in the presence of His Majesty? Not your brother; His Majesty. I am just His servant, as that bulb is the servant to the current, you see. You understand? You're in very much distress, aren't you? You're worried, scared, because you have a growth, tumorous growth, and that growth is in your breast. Is that right? It's in your left breast. Is that right? Come here.
O Lord, Creator of heavens and earth, Author of everlasting life, Giver of every good gift, send Thy blessings upon this poor mortal, who is now waiting for healing. Ready for an operation. O eternal God, bless her and help her. Heal her. In Jesus Christ's name I ask it. Amen.
Now, do you believe now that you're going to live? God bless you. As you have believed, it will be. He said, "If they lay hands on the sick, they shall recover." It turns light around you. I believe you're going to be made whole. The Lord Jesus [unclear words.]
Do you believe with all your hearts? Believing God makes the people well who has faith in Him?

Mark 16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

35 You have a growth, also, don't you, sister? That growth is on your neck, isn't it? Hers: The life that just went out of it, and it called, screamed for mercy, and was hanging up above you there, dark-looking cloud. I seen it---another one over top of you, screaming to the other one. Put your hand on your neck and say, "Lord Jesus, I accept my healing." And may the Lord be merciful to you, and grant your healing.
Be faithful. Be reverent.
Come, mister. Are we strangers? I'm getting very weak. Would you... If the Lord Jesus should just speak to me and show me something, what is wrong with you, would you accept your healing, my brother? ["Yes."] You would? You have diabetes. ["That's right."] You said you would accept your healing, didn't you? The Lord be with you, brother.
Would you do the same thing, lady? ["Yes."] Heart trouble you've had. ["Yes, sir."] Now go, and the Lord bless you.

36 Would you believe the same thing, lady, if I told you what was wrong with you? You have stomach trouble, isn't it? Go, and the Lord bless you.
Let's say, "Praise be to God."
Let's just bow our head and offer pray, if you will. Lord Jesus, come and be merciful to us now. Forgive us of our trespasses and sins. Bless us, every one, through Jesus Christ's name. Amen.
Do you believe God will make you well? The Lord bless you now. Go, and may He make you completely whole. [Unclear words.] God, who knows what's wrong with you, knows what the future will be. All right.
Let's says, "Thanks be to God."
For the child, you're coming, sister. You believe with all your heart? You want to get over the asthma? Just go off and say, "Thank You, Lord Jesus [unclear words].

37 That sister sitting right there with bronchitis, sitting right back there in the back, back at the end of the row there; you can raise up too, if you want to, and accept your healing. The Lord Jesus
healed you when He healed this one here with that [unclear words]. God bless you [unclear words]. You can go and be well.
Do you believe, sir? If God will reveal to me what's wrong with you, you accept your healing? You have kidney trouble. ["Praise the Lord."] All right.
Do you believe, sister? You've thought many things was wrong with you. It's stomach trouble, and you have fluttering around your heart. A lot of times you thought you had heart trouble, but it's the... When you lay down you feel it worse, you see. It's the nerves. Gas goes through the tubes to your stomach ... or, to your heart, which makes you feel that way. It's a nervous condition. God has healed you now. Go [unclear words].

38 My sister, you want to get over the female trouble? Go and accept your healing.
Come, sister.
Believe with all your heart. If you believe, you can receive.
I said, "Heart!" You felt funny, didn't you, on the end of the row? Yes. You want to get over a heart trouble? You do? You can just stand up then and accept your healing, both of you.

39 You, sir, you also, had sitting right there. You had heart trouble, too. Stand up. You got healed the same time, there. God bless you. That's right. The Lord bless you, my brother.
Be reverent. Do you believe God?
Little girl, look this way [unclear words], honey. The other little girl there, look here, sweetheart, just a minute. I seen the Light hanging over the little... No, it wasn't. It was on that lady there. It's you. You believe me to be His prophet? You have... The lady with the white-looking dress on, kind of turning gray. Don't you have some kind of a breaking out, or something? The doctors don't know exactly what it is, do they? I see him shake his head and walk away. It's on your legs, isn't it? Something like eczema. If that's right, wave your hand. The Lord be with you and heal you. Have faith in God.
(Billy, this the lady?)
Lady, look this way. You believe me to be His prophet, His servant?
