L'Angelo di Dio e la Sua commisione
E-1 Canada, and great part of the United
States. And I don't know any place I'd rather be this afternoon than
where I am right now at Phoenix Arizona. And I come in the Name of the
Lord to pray for the sick people, to say that I believe that many mighty
miracles will be performed in these next eight Sundays. I trust it'll
be one of the greatest meetings that will just give Phoenix an old
fashion revival to start here, that it shall not end until the Master
Himself shall appear on the scene.
This morning when I woke up and got up from my bed, and went to the
window, and raised back the curtains on the window, and looked back
towards Camelback mountain, green palms between here and the mountain,
and just as the sun was coming up and shining over the mountain, I
thought how thankful that the people of Arizona, Phoenix, should be to
live in such a place. They're closest towards heaven in Phoenix,
Arizona. So such a heavenly atmosphere. I love it. And I'm thankful I've
got these eight weeks to be with you, or eight Sundays.
E-2 This Sunday, probably there's many
here that I've never met before, and I want to meet you. I'd like to
have a time with each one of you, to speak with you and shake your hand,
and talk to you. Maybe I can later on.
Soon as these services is over, I'm to go to--down in California right
away, and then from there to Frisco, and then to Vancouver, British
Columbia, to begin Tuesday. Expecting great crowds at Vancouver, because
the Calgary meeting...
That was my last service. The Lord Jesus came in the most powerful
meeting that I've ever witnessed in all my life, at Calgary. It was
powerful all through Canada. The Canadian people... Probably there's
some of them here now. They will be after the service is over up there,
'cause there'll be hundreds that won't be able to get in the prayer
line, will come on down here.
E-3 But the Canadian people are some
thirty to fifty years behind America. They haven't got that fast life
that we live now. They're never in no hurry. They're very humble and
sweet people, waiting for the power of Almighty God. And He certainly
did manifest His great fine power among the Canadian people. Deaf, dumb,
blind, cancers, cripples, wheelchairs, oh, everything taken place. And
there was many thousands who did not get into prayer line, which are
reported already gathered at Vancouver.
One of the most outstanding things that I can think of at this time, was
a little boy in a wheelchair, which I had made the statement, and it is
true as I stand here... He promised me, this Angel, if I'd be sincere
and would get the people to believe, there would be nothing stand
before...
Therefore, they wanted to see what would happen in a prayer line where
there was nothing but cripples. And so they gave out that there'd be a
prayer line, be a miracle line, for nothing but cripples. And we would
get some of the people, see what would take place by the gift of
healing. Which it is not a gift of miracles; it's the gift of healing.
They wanted to see what would take place in a--a line of that type.
E-4 There was a young man in his
thirties, that had followed the meetings from--all the way from
Saskatoon down to Edmonton, so forth, and on down into Calgary. He'd run
out of funds. His mother had sold some of her possessions, and there
was nothing left then for him to--to thrive on, just enough money to
return home. And when she heard there was going to be a miracle line
just for the crippled, then she pawned her wedding ring to get the boy
to stay for the miracle line. That come into my ears that the mother had
pawned her wedding ring to keep the boy there.
That mother's wedding ring meant just as much to her as my mother's
does, or my wife's, or your wife's. Means much to her. Maybe her husband
might've been dead, for all I know. Well, we managed some way to see
that she got repaid for that, and her money back.
E-5 But that night, my little brother
brought into the line this boy. He was the most hideous crippled person
that I've seen in many years. His arms was drawn down to his legs. He
was a very, very much of a sight to look at.
Just before me was a little... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]...
judgment of God, where I'll have to give an account for every word that
I... Every word that I have spoke, I'll have to answer for it. But all
of a sudden my hand, the one which the gift comes through, the
vibrations, got real hot. And I... The little child was some eight, nine
years old, maybe not that old. And I laid it upon her little thigh, and
something just moved downward. And friends, God being my Judge, Who I
stand before; the four inches lacking on the child's leg was perfect.
She put this Bible on her head and walked up-and-down before the
audience, just as perfect as anyone could walk, like that. She was
healed, over a hour of prayer for her.
E-6 The next was this crippled boy.
After he'd been prayed for for some thirty-five or forty minutes, I
could not feel that there was any difference. I'll explain to you later,
on what I mean by that, by feeling. And after awhile the--the liberty
came. The power that had him bound was gone.
The next morning the boy shaved himself. His hands was drawing down; he
couldn't even feed hisself or shave himself, walked into the building,
pushed his wheelcart up-and-down across the floor for the first time for
thirty some odd years. He's to meet me. He got a telegram. And
tomorrow, he is to meet me at Vancouver to be the first one to greet me
and shake my hands, walk out on a field, have his picture taken walking
out to meet me at the plane, after being in his wheelchair for all that
time.
Oh, God is still God. If I just had the time to tell you the things...
But I'm sure that God will make it known unto you in many ways, through
testimonies and things.
E-7 I wonder if there's any Canadian
friends here? Anybody from Canada here? Would you just raise your hands,
anyone from Canada? Yes, I see one. What part of Canada, sister?
Quebec? Winnipeg. Was you in the Winnipeg meeting? You wasn't there.
There was also another man at the Winnipeg, one limb about two inches or
three inches shorter than the other one, who wore a high shoe, one of
those big built-up shoes. And he bought him a new pair of shoes and
brought to the meeting to wear away. And God did--will never disappoint
anybody with that kind of faith. He went away with his new shoes on,
left his old ones laying on the platform. He was whole, made whole.
He's wonderful, isn't He? Now, we don't have so much time in each
evening, but we have many evenings to--or afternoons, rather, to pray
for the sick. And I want you dear people, if you will, and all you
people who know Jesus as your Saviour, or Healer, I want you this coming
week, to go and pray with all your heart.
E-8 And I have many thousand miles of
flying ahead of me. I have... going up on the... plumb from Vancouver,
work down the coast as far as California, coming back to Fresno where
I'm to go tomorrow, to the Armenian people. They flew a boy, who prays
for the sick, by the name of Abaick. They brought him from Cairo over to
pray for a man by the name of Arcalian.
The same time they sent for him, they sent up in Indiana and had me to
come to a woman with cancer. And both breasts was taken off, and the
cancer had gone down into her--her--the lung cavity. And three days
after the woman was prayed for, she was doing her shopping on the
street. And she's perfectly sound and well now with no signs of cancer
at all.
E-9 And it so got the--the Armenian
people over there to see that the Lord Jesus was such a great Healer,
I'm... There's people that's calling now. There's another cancer case,
which is a friend to the woman. By the way, the lady was just given a
few more hours to live by some of the noted specialists of St. Louis,
where they had flew her there by plane to be operated. But now, she's
well.
Makes me think of that song, "Amazing Grace, How Sweet the Sound," that would save, or we'd say heal a wretch like me.
Now, this afternoon, I... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
Demons that come from the people. It darkens the people's thoughts to
see it. But if you'll be reverent, you shall see the glory of God here
in Phoenix.
I think now, if you will, let's bow our heads and have just a word of
prayer, if you will, everywhere. To all of you here, the children and
all, be just as reverent as you can be...?...
E-10 Jesus, our heavenly Father...?...
afternoon from the very hearts, to come again into Phoenix, Arizona,
coming in the Name of Thy beloved Son, Christ Jesus, coming with...?...
that they will, beyond any shadow of doubt, see the glory of Almighty
God manifested, where the deaf and dumb spirits leave the people, the
blind to leave, the--the cripples to be set at liberty, when the power
of Christ comes down to liberate those who are captured and bound by the
powers of Satan.
O God, I pray Thee [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... every one who [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] in these services [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... The ministers [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]...
and are sponsoring this meeting here for the city of Phoenix. Maybe
many of the worldly-minded people will not understand just what it
means, but those who are spiritual and wise shall know what this means, a
sign.
E-11 O Father, I pray Thee to manifest
Thy power. Bless the ones who gave us the right to this auditorium. I
pray that You'll be with every one of them, Father. If there be any
unsaved among, may they be saved, Father. And may this house that's
being used here for a different speakings, Father, I pray Thee just now
that Thou will sanctify the building for the services of Jesus Christ.
May sinners weep their way to Calvary right here in this building. May
sick people be liberated, may demons scream, and come out. And may it
give this lovely little city the greatest shaking it's ever had.
Father, I believe that You have many people here, gathering in here in
this health resort from the different parts of the world. And I pray,
Father, that You will heal them, and let them know that There is a
fountain filled with Blood, drawn from Immanuel's veins. O God, grant
it.
E-12 Bless every minister, I ask again,
Father, that's turned their congregations loose this afternoon to come. I
pray that You'll be with all of us.
And now, dear God, I thank You for the rest that You have given me up in
the mountains, and now coming down with new strength. O Christ, may
Your gift be more than a match for anything that Satan could lay before
us. May the great shaking powers of God loose everything that is unlike
God, even to the cold and indifferent hearts of sinful men and women,
boys and girls.
E-13 Help, Father, as the planes roar
across the mountains, I pray that You'll bring me back next Sunday
safely to Phoenix again. Father, Thou art the Captain of our salvation. I
pray that You'll help.
Now, bless in this afternoon's service. And may every heart here be
circumcised. May the ears be circumcised to hear the Word of God, and
circumcise the lips of Thy servant to speak that which is right. May
great powers be brought forth this afternoon in liberation for the
people. And may every one that comes to the platform, come with that one
single mind: "This is my time, and I shall be liberated. If others are,
so can I." And may they not be silent, but in the city walk the streets
and testify this next week, giving praise and glory to God. And may it
start even the merchants, and all, Father, till there's a great wakening
here. They might know that the Spirit of God still has pre-eminence
anywhere. You can pierce into the darkest places and pull those out who
are crying. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
E-14 Just an analysis to make an estimation now, that since I was in Phoenix, there has been at least six... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] I'd say... Well, I'd say twenty-five or thirty-five thousand people, prayed for, maybe more than that. And there's been at least ten thousand of them healed. Would you think of that? Such as cancers that are laying at their last moment, are well people since the last meeting. I guess, in the--in the--the provinces of Canada alone, there was at least two hundred and fifty, or maybe more than that, cases of cross-eyed people with their eyes straightened. And mutes, it's innumerable to count them, for there was multiplied scores of them that came, that were some deaf, dumb, some hard of hearing and everything that were made perfectly whole. Now, that's only done through the visitation of the Angel.
E-15 A few nights ago, standing at home,
when I came in home from Canada, I couldn't arrive at my house for five
days. The people were laying so deep at the place, till they kept me
out for five days. A few days ago, the people would come up, and they
would have someone there to turn them away, coming from all parts of the
nation. And their...
Night... last Sunday morning, my little church asked if I would come by
and have--teach for them in the Book of Revelations. I did. Then, at the
end, the associate pastor said, "Now, Brother Branham is not praying
for sick, 'cause he's waiting and holding his strength to arrive at
Phoenix." And so, he said, "Don't no one ask for prayer." But I stood to
shake their hands at eleven o'clock. And two o'clock they got me away
from the place.
E-16 And I had on a watch, and I took
hold of a woman there first that had a tumor, and the tumor stopped...
The vibrations stopped my watch. I can't pray for people with a watch
on. I can show it to you this afternoon. It'll stop it every time,
vibrations over that brand new Longines watch. It'll--it'll stop; the
vibration would stop it. And I showed a minister from...?... He's in
here the audience this afternoon somewhere. And he... It--it stopped.
The vibration stopped it.
Then Sunday night, when I was over to have just a sermon for them, why,
there was some people formed a prayer line. And I asked them if I'd
stand and pray for them in mass form, if they would believe, And they
said they did. Then they... Bless their heart, they--they wanted to
shake my hand, or something, you know, to get close. And they all passed
by shaking hands.
And then some of the people that had been healed with cancer, and
tuberculars, and so forth, they were standing that wanted to be seen.
Some people that I have told you about was healed, they were standing
up.
E-17 And I... While standing there, I
felt the Presence of this Angel come near. Looking out over the
audience, I felt the lady that He was calling for. I seen she was in the
prayer line. God knows, I didn't know what was wrong with the lady. And
I said, "Come here, you." And she just stood and looked at me.
I said, "You, there."
And the lady said, "You mean this lady here?"
And I said, "Yes."
Said, "Why, she's deaf."
And I said, "Well, bring her here; this is the time she's to be healed."
Now, see, that has to come from God. I said, "How long has she been
deaf?"
Said, "Her sister's somewhere in the building." And there was just about
as many people in the building as there is this center aisle, I guess.
Was all they could get in, in the outside.
And the lady came up. And she said--her sister said, "She's been deaf
all of her life, practically, since she was a child anyhow, around
twelve years old."
Well, as soon as I took hold of her hand, there showed... When I was
praying for them, I was using my right hand. Then on the left hand
showed vibrations. And a few moments, the deaf spirit was cast from the
lady, and she was looking, and I [Brother Branham snaps his finger.--Ed.]
snapped my finger. She turned and looked. I said, "You hear me, don't
you?" And her hearing was perfect. And she begin crying. Very fine
dressed lady, she begin crying with her hands up in the air. And the
people begin to run around. Then they got me out through the back way.
E-18 Because, you see, friends, I can only... I am just a human. I'm just a man. But it has to come from Almighty God. You see?
Did you notice the Master? He would go into a city, and maybe performed
one miracle, and then leave the city. Did you notice that? Many times
like that. Was there many lepers in the days of--of Elisha, but only one
was sent to him; that was Naaman. Is that true? Hard tell how many more
lepers came, but one was sent to him, and that was the one the Lord had
intended.
And the only way that I can tell, is when I feel that something from the
person that gives me the access to this supernatural power. That it's
not mine; it's His power. Then there's nothing, no matter what it is... I
say it in the Name of the Lord. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
E-19 Now, who was He speaking to? Moses.
Many of you in your Sunday school lessons has read of this great Bible
character, Moses. I like him, because he was a--a shadow of the--of the
coming of Christ. He was just a shadow of Christ's coming.
Notice. Now, when the people of Israel had gone down in Egypt, and had
come into bondage for four hundred and twenty years, which He had
already told Abraham that they would do... When the time of the promise
drew nigh, then I want you to notice how... Notice it now. How that when
the time of the promise drew nigh, the people began at that time, to
see that there was something happened to them, some troubles. And God
always cause troubles, mostly always, to bring the people together. Did
you know that?
I believe there'll be a time when there won't be any more division
amongst the people of God, such as "I belong to this church, and I
belong to that church." I believe the persecution will run all the big
ransomed Church of God together, and we'll be one in Christ Jesus. And
then He will take her home. Now, we won't argue whether this doctrine is
right or that.
E-20 Now, notice. Then at the time of
the promise drew nigh, there raised up a Pharaoh who did not know
Joseph, and they put burdens upon the people. And the people were so
burdened that they could not make the--the bricks and things that they
were supposed to. And then, would you think that God would plague His
people in that manner? Yes. For the Word of God is eternally true. Is
that right? And He promised He would deliver them, and no other way He
had to do it but this a way.
So therefore, at the time of the persecution of Israel, then God had an
Angel to come down to the earth. But before He had the Angel to come, He
had a little boy borned down there by the name of Moses. Is that
correct? And this little boy, Moses, was borned rather a peculiar birth.
And then, at the age of maturity, he was sent out to deliver the
children of Israel, for they were in bondage. And God told him before he
went now, "I'll set My--send Mine Angel before thee."
Now, God could have sent the Angel down, could He. He could let the
Angel come Hisself, but instead of that, He sent the Angel to speak
through the voice of a man. God always used man for His work. Is that
right? He don't use organizations, or so forth, and mechanical devices,
but He uses men. The Holy Spirit fell upon men. That's God's instrument
here on earth.
E-21 He was the first one who had the
jurisdiction over everything in the earth (Is that right?), over all the
animals. And he lost his--his power. And we're taught in the Bible what
the first Adam lost, the second Adam, Christ, restored again to the
human race.
Then, friends, if that's so, ministers, what's the matter with the
Church today? That's what I want to know. If Christ was the missing link
between God and man, and He's come to hook God and man together again,
what is the matter today? It's because of unbelief. And you'll start
something, and you'll see a little something, pretty soon you'll say,
"Oh, well, let it go. It wasn't of God." All things work together for
good to them that love God.
If you're building a house, and you say, "Well, this person just don't
fit in here, 'cause look where this block is, this big open place here.
Oh, that looks..." If it's... Move on. Keep building the house. God's
got another block that'll fit in there, that'll fill that up. The house
can't be built like that. So today, while God is moving, let's forget
about it and move right out in the Spirit of Almighty God, and there see
the house of God restored again.
E-22 Notice. Now, at the day that God
was bringing His people together, there arose a great persecution on--on
the people, and Moses was sent for a deliverer. He opened the Red Sea;
he done all these miracles... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
They know no more about it than a Hottentot knows about Egyptian night.
That is right. And even spirits that's in astronomy recognized it before
men who claimed to even have the Holy Spirit...?... That's true. Any
man can say those things. But if God does not testify of it, it's wrong.
Is that right? But if God testifies of it, it's the works of God. Is
that true?
E-23 If I come here to Phoenix in the
name of a prophet, and I do not the things that a prophet does, then
don't believe me. But if I come in the Name of the Lord Jesus, in the
name of prophecy, and as His servant, and I do the things that is
written of His servant, then you believe me. Will you do that? If the
deaf don't hear, the dumb don't speak, the blind don't see, the cripples
don't walk, if prophecies of sin isn't foretold the people and your
sins from the time you was a child foretold, then believe that this
Angel that come to me is false and I'm false with It. But if It
manifests Itself here on the platform before you, you believe it and
repent of your sins and disbelief, for the hour of His visitation is
drawing near. That's right. For He only does those things to confirm His
Word.
Look, anyway before any judgment's ever sent to the earth, God sends
forth and warns the people. That's right. And friends, you listen to my
word, if it's in touch with God. One of the greatest judgments that's
ever hit all the world is on its road. Now, remember that. Someday I'll
be gone, but you--you remember. Many of you younger people, and some of
you older, will see that I have told you the truth. That's right.
E-24 Now, this gift comes by... If you
people have prayed and asked for God to send a gift, He sent it. A few
months ago when I was here at Phoenix, it was new. But now, no doubt,
your leading newspapers, or your magazines--the Life, and Times and so
forth... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] and it's heard plumb around the world.
Two nights before I come here in the house, five different nations
called in. And the capital of Turkey called in and said, "We have heard
that the Lord God Almighty has stretched forth His arms to heal in
America." Said, "Is there any way that we can get a few crumbs?"
Hungering, heathens...
Oh people, rise in the Name of your Lord. Claim your God given
privilege, for the hour is here for you to be healed. That's right, to
glorify God and to receive of His Spirit and His blessings. Cut off of
all formalities. Cut off of all this ritualistic religion and come into
the realms of the living God, Who awakens the human soul and brings you
into righteousness, into worship of Him in the Spirit and in the Truth.
For the hour is come and now is that God has sent forth His warning.
E-25 Comes by vibrations from the hand. The very God that sent His Angel before Moses... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... Angel here. That is right. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
I try to be sincere. Now, I want you to know this, that I may
leave...?... before morning. I know not. But in the room that night when
He came (to you people)... It appeared to me many times in a form of
a--of a star. I've seen it many times. But when it came visible, it was a
Man that would seemingly would weigh two hundred pounds.
A little over two years ago now, I was sitting in the room. I was
reading my little Scofield Bible, and I heard something. First, I saw a
Light. And I thought it was an automobile that turned the corner. But it
turned, but it got brighter. And I looked out the door and there was no
automobile. Then I heard something coming like this, going... [Brother Branham knocks on the podium four times.--Ed.]
walking. And I looked, and the Light got greater. And just above me
hung a great Star. And the Light was kind of a, more of a green, between
green and yellow, shining on the floor. And coming walking through this
Light, came a Man that looked like, as I said before, would weigh two
hundred pounds, a huge Man. He did not have beard over His face, like
Christ's picture does. Who He is, I do not know. But He had... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... shoulder. He was more of an olive complexion; He had dark eyes. He walked as close to me as the microphone is there.
E-26 Yes, it's true friends. I couldn't
speak. And He said to me... I just sit there. And He said, "Fear not.
I'm sent from the Presence of God to tell you that this peculiar life of
yours, peculiar birth... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]...
a gift of Divine healing to the peoples of the world." And said, "If
you'll be sincere, and will get the people to believe you, there will be
no disease stand before your prayer, not even to cancer." And He said,
"It'll come to pass that you'll tell the people their diseases from a
vibration over your hand. Then if you will be reverent long, then you'll
tell the people the sins of their life, and the things that they have
done."
Dear friends, with the Bible before me this afternoon, it has come to pass. I went forth. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
E-27 Now, that's what I questioned. And
I'm not going to ask you right out in the public like that, because many
of you might put up your hands and say that you didn't understand. But I
believe that there's some of you here, for I know this by the Spirit...
Try to pull myself away this afternoon, talked just as stern as I
possibly could.
Notice, in the Spirit now I feel that there's going to be many, many
things happen...?... mark... (See?), because there's faith setting
there.
I know a man setting right in the building right now that's afflicted. I
can call that man to this platform; he'd be healed right now. That's
right. I know he's here in the building. I feel his spirit is coming
from the left side of me, over here. That is true.
E-28 I wonder if the little Spanish girl
from Sacramento that was standing in that building that night, and set
there; and she was sitting way back in the building, and she had said
within her heart... She was Catholic. She said, "I can't get to where
Brother Branham is. But if he will only look at me in the eye, I'll be
healed." I knowed nothing about the girl. She'd been down and set--down
farther than Long Beach, or somewhere in there, with the meetings.
I come into the service that night; I was preaching. And when I was
preaching, I seen the--the--seemed like the faith kept pulling it, just
to my right side. I looked back down, and way down through the building,
I said, "That young lady, setting back so far, tell her to come here." I
said, "Come here, young lady."
And I've got her testimony. She almost fainted. She said, "Me?"
I said, "The little round hat on, come here." Walked humbly up. She had
tubercular. I took her by the hand, I said, "You have tuberculosis. But
'THUS SAITH THE LORD.'" That was all. It was done. The next morning she
re--gave her heart to Christ. She was baptized and brought her family.
And she's to meet me here in Phoenix. I don't know where the girl is.
Are you in the building, sister? Anywhere now, from Sacramento, up there
at California? She's to be over here in the Phoenix meeting this time.
If you are, raise up. Stand up, if you are, I might miss your hand
somewhere, if you're in the building: a little Spanish girl, I guess
about eighteen, twenty years old, something like that. She's to be here.
She'll witness to you this week. That's just one of the things of the
hundreds has taken place.
E-29 Now, it can do the same thing here.
And I'll call your attention if this man shall come in the line;
because I'm afraid to call him now, because it will be conspicuous,
sound like. I don't have just the pre-eminence to call him at this time,
but I know he's here. There's a man here that's a perfect stranger,
never seen him before in my life, just as deaf as deaf can be. That's
right. But he's setting here.
If that man is in the building this af... If that man comes in this
prayer line this afternoon, and I get to touch him under this anointing
that I have now, the man's ears will be perfectly opened. THUS SAITH THE
LORD. If that isn't right, then call me a false prophet. I could call
him to the platform. If He gives me one more... I'm waiting just a
second to see what He says about it. Now, watch and see what I tell you.
E-30 Now, we're going to form the prayer
line just in a few moments. And I want you to do this: If there be a
modern skeptic in the building, I warn you in the Name of the Lord
Jesus, do not set in the building during this time, for cancers,
deafness, epileptic, they come from one to another. I'll explain that
later. You all understand?
How many's heard me explain how diseases are germs, and germs are life.
You're a germ yourself; you come from the germ of life. Is that right?
Well, if you come from your--by your father and mother, a germ of
life... A cancer is a germ; a cataract is a germ; a tumor is a germ;
tubercular is a germ. Is that right? Where did they come from? What kind
of life are they? The doctors call... That's medical names, saying,
"cancer, cataract," so forth like that. Jesus called them a devil. Is
that right? And that's what they are. And anyone knows "a devil" means
"a tormentor." And it's something that's tormenting your body.
E-31 Now, I want to know the... How many
believes that God has sent His gift of healing? Now, let's see. God
bless you. Oh, my, eighty-five percent of the crowd believes. Then,
under such as that, I'll assure you to see the glory of Almighty God.
Now, remember, while I step out for a word of pray, after having prayer
with you here, if... Let me give you some advice. For my sake and for
your sake, it'll only cause reproach.
Remember, one thing too. This is not a gift to perform miracles. He...
The last time He spoke to me was at Vandalia, Illinois. Is anybody here
from the Vandalia meeting, was up there at Vandalia, Illinois? A person
in the building here that was there when the Angel of the Lord came
down, and said, "You are confined. It'll come to pass... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
E-32 Do you believe I'm Jesus'
servant...?... Father...?... standing near you...?... Cancer. Vibration
over my hand. You realize that her days is very short, not long until
this soul that once lived here on the earth will be moving on to another
dwelling. And life is dear to people all of them. With Your power that
You will heal her this afternoon. Spare her life. She's wanting
You...?... I remember when Your great Spirit has brought these things.
The Angel of God met me that night in the room, come forth now, and help
to give power over this demon.
Thou demon, called cancer, I adjure thee, by Jesus Christ, the Son of
the living God, leave the woman. Thou demon of cancer, I adjure thee, by
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, come out of the woman. (...?... )
Heavenly Father, we thank Thee for Thy power of healing. We thank Thee,
because Thou does hear now answering the prayer. I pray, Father, this
woman will serve You all the days of her life. All glory and praise be
unto Thee in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen. All right...?... every
vibration...?... Name.
Now, remember, you're going to be terribly sick in a few hours, terribly
sick as a result of the death of that cancer. Have you ever been in one
of my meetings before? All right. Your cancer is dead now. You notice
what I tell you. I'll be here for eight weeks. And you'll find out that
I've told you. During that time I want you to come to the platform and
testify of your condition. Your cancer's leaving you.
E-33 Mister...?... see, your souls worth
that to Him. You're nervous, awfully nervous. That's what's caused your
stomach trouble, 'caused a condition of, something like acid rises in
your stomach, and causes you to have a burning sensation, and brings a
condition...?... foul breath...?... That right? How do you think I would
know that? That's right, sir. I never seen you before in life as I know
of, but there it is. I want you to notice here, right under these
bumps...?... see those...?... Watch them. See how they...?... That's a
vibration a condition of it...?... started...?... ulcers all over...?...
Now...?... And if that's to stop, see what I mean? Those, like a white
streak? See those little white spots, now watch them come and go. Now,
that is...?... All right. Now, if I leave my hand like that, and those
stop, and it turns white like this, then you're healed. If it isn't,
it'll stay there. You'll serve God, won't you? If you can live...
Our heavenly Father, this man, wanting a blessing...?... shows that he
is a servant, Lord, and fights for is dear for others. And we thank Thee
for his gallant soul, for it is... brings back... Now, I pray, dear
God, that this day, that Thou will show to him that the very rights that
he's fighting for, the freedom of religion, a place to worship
according to the dictates of our conscience, that You will reign in this
place by healing him. God...?... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
E-34 Keep that...?... Now, you just
proved that...?... Now, faith comes...?... Dear God, that this man might
know that Thou art truly the Son of God, the...?... his life, that I be
Thy servant. Help me to have power to go forth to meet this demon that
binds him...?... Thou demon, I adjure to leave the boy in the Name of
Jesus Christ of Nazareth, come out of him. There he goes. Now, young
man...?... Now, it's not...?... You understand that, boy? I'm not...?...
All right, now...?... Now, you probably can raise head just moment.
I'll call your attention in a few moments to one great...?...
Now, my hand...?... laid hand on her hand, which is red slightly over
this...?... and the little white pimples like stopped when it healed,
coming across my hand. Is that right, sir? And my other hand is normal
and fine. I never moved my hand. Set right between the conditions,
against my stomach, laying right like this. Never moved it up or down,
exactly where it was. And my hand's absolutely white. Now, something
visible happened of it, something that you could see with your eyes.
E-35 Are you a Christian? Now, you
remember when you were saved? You went forth and believed God with all
your heart? 'Cause something happened to you, wasn't it. You testified
to it ever since. Satan has talked to you, tried to get you to doubt
that, and get away from that. But you held out. Do the same thing. Your
stomach trouble will be gone if you do that. That ulcer and everything
will be healed up. You'll be a well man again...?... to you? Anthony,
New Mexico. If you're back in this area, will you come to the platform
and testify in the next few weeks, and tell the people what happened
they might know? What's your name? Barnett? God bless you Brother
Barnett.
Listen for the boy's testimony. It's perfectly clear. The longer I held
my hand there, you notice white it gets all the time? You're healed,
sir. God bless you.
Let's just praise the Lord, everybody. Bow your heads now and give praise...?...
E-36 You put your hand on mine. What's
that? What? Feel it with my hand what it was. Now, watch. Got a bad
bleeding ulcer. You're also suffering with...?... Now, look. See
how...?... looks on my hand now...?... Look at this one here. See
how...?... Now, watch, and be--be reverent. Do you believe that Jesus
can heal...?... ?
Our heavenly Father, Thou Who knows all things, knows the healing
virtues that Thou hast died for at Calvary, bring forth Thy power. As
Elisha said, after seeing Elijah taken, he said, "Let the God of Elijah
speak." Let the God of Christ speak.
Thou demon, I adjure thee to leave the lady. In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, come out of her.
I want you to raise your head, sister. Up. See the light? Now, you can
see that with your eyes, can't you? The red spots will leave,
setting...?... Is that right? Now, go home, you're going to be well. Go
and praise God for the rest of your days, and God has let you be whole.
Praise the Lord daily. Testify for Him when I only met you. God bless
you.
E-37 Sister, you're--you're facing a
nervous breakdown. Been very nervous, really worried. You get worried
feelings. Seems like you just... Well, you don't know what to do with
yourself. Is that right? All right. You thought lots of coming to be
prayed for, haven't you? All right. You can go home and be made well
now. If I would ask the...?... of life, you do this for Him.
Almighty and all...?... God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who brought Him again from the dead... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
Leave her, in the Name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Come out.
E-38 Now, while I was...?... them out...
Now--now, that doesn't come by vibrations. There's no vibrations on the
hand. Only, she did have just a little touch of female trouble, a
little bag in her stomach. She's been having stomach trouble, such as
having a little...?... like gas on the stomach, and so forth like that.
Is that right, lady? Now, how did I know that? [The lady answers, "Vibrations."--Ed.] That's right. See?
Well, now, here's what happens. She gets real nervous spells. But
ma--mainly, a mental, psychic condition. She causes...?... feeling, she
gets worried, at first like a old piece of...?... And you feel like
you're going to lose your mind. Isn't that the way you been feeling?
E-39 Now, what is that? Now, it's not
normal. If there's a doctor setting close. You know that's not normal
for a human being to be like that. Now, what is it? It's not exactly a
disease of the body. But how I feel like, around her is a gloomy
feeling. Did you ever get down into a dark place, in an alley, or
something, and be scared all at once? Or walking on the streets, or
anywhere? How many ever had that experience of being scared? There's
something there to scare you. Is that right? There's something there to
make you fret. There's something haunting this lady that makes her feel
that way. But now, it's a lifted. It's gone. Now, the lady can go home
and be normal.
Now, you live close, sister? New Mexico. All right, if you're around
here in the next four or five weeks, come in and see what happened. Now,
you go on your road rejoice. Just start praising God, and saying,
"Thank You, dear God." Now, all that gloomy feeling will be gone, and
you'll have it no more. God bless you, lady.
E-40 Now, just bow your heads a
moment...?... Now, here's a poor...?... It really is a serious
condition. I want you to raise your head all of you. I want you to look
just at my hand. I want you look at this hand here, can you see it from
where... Let me get back under these lights. Now, look at my... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]...
body. He's is got a tumor. Look at this hand here, how white it is. You
see, I'm mashing down on this hand, same as I am on that one. See? See
them white looking specks in my hand, red flags in...?...
Poor little thing. What--what did the doctor say was wrong with you?
Tumor? Tumor of the gland. All right. Now, 'course it's beyond operation
now. And you--you have faith to believe that God will let the little
boy get well? That's your only hope, isn't it, your only hope?
All right. Bow your head now, friends. I want you to notice. I'm going
to hold my hand this way, the way it was. Now, just bow your head. I
don't say it'll leave. I'll only have to ask God that's all.
E-41 Dear heavenly Father, I think, what
if this was my little boy, little Billy Paul. And the little fellow is
standing here with no other way to live in this life, except by You,
now. Nothing can be done anymore. But faith that framed the world
together... You said, "I can, if you believe." Dear God, I don't know
how to be any more sincere with You. This poor little fellow's going to
die, Father. Doctors can do no more. And it's just mercy her mother's
standing here, Father, knows it's been...?... since. The last thing she
could do, is to bring the little boy here to be prayed for. God, have
mercy, will You, Father?
I've showed the people the vibration of this demon that's tormenting the
little fellow. God, his father or mother, or anyone who has sinned,
forgive it somehow, anywhere through the generations, someone had
sinned, O Christ, believe me, forgive it. And I pray that You'll give
power over this demon.
Thou demon, called tumor, I come to meet thee in the Name of Jesus Christ. This day, thou shall leave him. Come out of him.
Almighty and all gifted God, help me, dear God. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
E-42 God may be known through his country, that Thou art God, and I be Thy servant.
Thou demon, I come to meet thee. In the Name of Jesus Christ, I adjure
thee. Come out of the child in the Name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the
living God.
All right. Audience, you may raise your heads. Now, you see, my hand
hadn't you... Watch what has some red... Now, just watch it turning
white. Can you it leaving? Any of the audience see it leaving? There it
is, perfectly normal and white, not a vibration or unusual thing. Where
do you live, lady? Here in Phoenix? Bring him back next week. I want to
see what's happened to him. God bless you.
E-43 We ought to say, "Thank the Lord,
oughtn't we?" These are not... These are things that you don't notice,
friends. But they're--they're in here, just the same. They're happening.
Now, believe, every one. Keep your heads bowed.
Dear Father, the brother standing here now, on crutches, one leg
amputated, and Satan is bothering him with this past made condition. But
Thou art here to heal. Thou art here to make him well. God, he's
crippled along here on his crutches. Father, maybe You could construct
the other limb...?... He might not have just right. But Thou has said,
"It's better to enter into the Kingdom of God with one limb, or one eye
than to be cast into hell." O Father, now that he has become Thy
servant, has heard...?... Satan, leave the man in the Name of Jesus
Christ. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]...?...
God bless you. You live here in Phoenix, sir. Vibrations has stopped.
Won't you come back, you can come--come to the platform and testify so
the people can see.
E-44 Oh, it's your son. See my hand? You
watch it...?... Little boy, do you believe that if I ask Jesus, that He
will let you get well and you'll be a normal. You...?... believe it?
You're crippled. You just go when you get healed and tell all the little
children that Jesus healed you? Done everything that's human, haven't
you? God bless you now. There he come, a little boy...?... I speak in
this...?... Mother, I want you to watch. It'll physically darken. Now,
see where my hand is...?...
Almighty God, the Author of Eternal Life, the Giver of every good gift,
send Thy blessings upon the little lad. We realize that there's no
chance of ever be well or normal, or anything. His mother brought him. O
Christ, have mercy. This is near its last hope. Be merciful, won't You,
Father? We realize, Father, that faith is the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence of things not seen. May this little boy return to his
doctor; may the doctor say, "My, what has happened to him? He's getting
well." God, grant it from death to life.
Satan, leave the child. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I adjure
thee, Satan. There he goes...?... Now, you see what's happened to my
hand? From Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Raise your head, audience. The doctors... Was it at Mayo? University of
Minnesota. The doctors give him up. There's no hopes for him. And she
brought him here to Phoenix to be healed. And as certain as I stand on
the platform, Almighty God has touched the boy's body...?...
Now look, sister. My hand was red in places, full of welts like a few
moments ago. Is that right? Is that the same condition, my hand, lady?
Did you notice it turned from red and frothy to white? Did you see that?
All right...?... Little boy, you can return to Minnesota, I believe
you'll live to be a normal man. Praise the Lord...
