<TITLE>02. Par 6-9</TITLE>L-6 Now, what I tell you tonight, I want each one of you to remember just what I telled you. And then, if those things doesn't happen just the way I say they are, then when the service is over, at the end of these seventeen days, you can go around town and say, "Brother Branham is a false prophet." But if God testifies back just exactly what I say is the truth, well then, you believe God if you don't believe me. Isn't that right? Then you can go around and say the Lord is right, the Lord has told us the truth. He sent us.

L-7 Now, as far as the... a gift to heal, there... Many people do not understand what "gifts" means. There's nobody can heal you but Christ. I don't care how much a gift you possess, Christ is the Giver. See? And you're only healed through Christ.
I wish to read just a little Scripture now and explain to you some of the operations of the gift. Then you'll know how to come. And then you'll...
I'll tell you what we can do. How'd you like to do this, all of us? If you can just take this little group here, like maybe, probably eighteen hundred or two thousand people, something like that... If you could... If you could take this little group here tonight, and--and settle it down, and let everyone believe just exactly what I've told you to be the truth, there'll be a meeting that'll shake Houston. That's right. He will.

L-8 Now, remember. If you can just take... Maybe there's some of it you do not understand. Frankly, friends, there's much of it that I do not understand. I just accept it. Don't never try to figure God out; you can't do it. God is not understood by knowledge; God is understood by faith. Is that right?
What if Peter would've tried to figure out how deep that water was, and how impossible it was for him to walk on that water; he'd have never walked. See? But he just took Christ at His Word and walked on.
Well, that's the way I did this. I just took Him at His Word, and there I went. And you just take Him at His Word tonight. And if you, maybe be a sinner and do not understand how to take God at His Word, then God sent me here. I want you to take my word for it, and see if it doesn't come to pass, that God will bless you.

L-9 Now, can we bow our heads while we talk to our Maker, just for a moment.
Our heavenly Father, we're thankful tonight with... And our hearts are made to rejoice in our--the--our salvation, because that Jesus, the Redeemer, has come and has blessed us. He came to the earth, the Messiah, a made after the manner of sinful flesh, and taken our sickness upon Him, and our iniquities; and He--He bore them to Calvary's cross, and then ascended on high sitting at the right-hand of the majesty tonight, making intercessions, become our High Priest, a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmities. And tonight, after all these hundred years is past, isms has rose, fanaticisms has come and gone, but yet the glorious power of the Son of God still rules and reigns in the hearts of thousands of His people.
And now, I pray Thee, Lord, as we're entering into this great revival, that we believe is just on the threshold of it now here at Houston, that the glory of God will come down in our midst. And may every crippled, blind, afflicted, twisted, spastic, mental deficiency, all manners of diseases be healed here. May thousands of people come flocking around the altar, giving their hearts to Thee, the Holy Spirit be poured out. It'll just... Lord, may seventeen days not even start it. May it go on, and on, and on until Thy beloved Son appears in glory, and we may appear with Him, clothed in His righteousness, to look upon Him.
