<TITLE>01. Par 1-5</TITLE>50-0714, At Thy Word, Tent Meeting, Minneapolis, MN, 48 min
L-1 If I can do my part in the Master's service tonight, trying to help His people along the way... I'm sure that everybody's here for that purpose, to try to pray and to help someone to get close to God, or to be healed if they're sick, afflicted, and weary.
And we're very happy when we heard that so--so many of them last evening was healed. Right at the end of the service, it seemed to be rather a great clasp of faith. I trust it'll be that way tonight, if anything greater, and more will be healed.
There's many that gets healed, that maybe we can't call them right out from the platform here, but a few days you'll be noticing that slight stomach trouble, it's gone; heart trouble, it is no more. It just go as far as our faith is what heals them. They have faith believing God.

L-2 And now tonight, just to put as much time... Just a little late. Just as much time as I can on--on praying for the sick. The ministers through the daytime here, they speak and teach concerning faith, and how to receive faith.
As myself, I'm not a preacher. I'm just... I was sent to pray for the sick. I spend my time in prayer all through the day. I must do it in order to meet the obligation of the night. And sickly takes the life from you, fasting and praying.
Someone said not long ago, says to me, said, "Brother Branham, when do you ever rest?"
I don't get any. But I will have rest someday if I live true and faithful. When I cross the river on the other side, I hope that God will have a place there that I can rest.

L-3 A person who lives their life for theirself, lives a selfish life. We must live for others: "Bear ye one another's burdens and so fill full the law of Christ." And we got to have a feeling for one another. And therefore, when you do all you know how to do, then when you do lay down at night, well, you have the consolation knowing that you--you tried your best.
I can't make everyone believe. That's impossible. Jesus couldn't do that when He was on earth. And I know there'll just be a few that believes. But if anything I can add to help the Gospel, that's my duty of being here, is to try to help somebody along the way.

L-4 Tonight, just speak to you for a few moments, just in order to kinda get this settling down of the spirit. I'm sure you all appreciate the feeling here amongst people. It's some, I guess they said the tent seated four thousand. There's a good thirty-five hundred people laying in the tent tonight. Then, there's thirty-five hundred souls, thirty-five hundred spirits.
And as you're looking this way, and it's... And the condition that I'm in at this time, it... I... It feels. You can tell it. It's a great pull. Many people have faith.
Sometimes I try to catch those who are back in the audience, way back from me. But there comes such a... I guess I would call it, "cross fire." This side believing, that side believing; this one pulling, that one pulling, you can't hardly discern.

L-5 And I've asked my manager if they'll get all the sick and afflicted like this, right up around me here, so that I won't have any interference.
Many of you might wonder why the people leave the platform at night. That's coming both ways then (You see?); it's hard. You can't detect where it's coming from. And you must single that person out. You can watch it just a few moments, or get close in contact with it; it usually brings forth a vision that tells the people what's wrong with them. I don't know what's wrong with anyone. I only have to...
