<TITLE>09. Par 34-37</TITLE>L-34 Not long ago in Houston there was a boy came by, I believe I might've told you about it the last time I was here. So many things that's happened...
There was an old man... I'll tell this one then. There was a fellow named John Rhyn, and the fellow was blind. And he was at the meeting here and at Fort Wayne. And he come in the meeting. They was several thousand people had gathered in that night, and about two nights after the piano had played "The Great Physician now is near the sympathizing Jesus," when the Angel of God in a whirl of a halo whirled down in the room where I was at, and I thought the custodian turned the light on me. And here... When I had the little boy in my arms, I dropped him, and, why, the girl, Nazarene girl, playing the piano, she jumped up and started running and screaming. She seen that little boy walking off the platform normal. Why, she jumped up. And she was playing "The Great Physician," and it just kept playing on,
The Great Physician now is near,
The sympathizing Jesus;
He speaks the drooping heart to cheer,
No other Name but Jesus.
There He was playing.

L-35 About a night or two after that, this old man came through the line. I prayed for him, had a line coming just as fast as they could. Two men was leading him. He was blind. And he said, "Is--is--is this Reverend Branham?" 
I said, "Yes, sir."
And he said, "Well, heal me," said.
I said, "I can't."
Said, "Well, why can't you?"
I said, "Jesus already done it." And I said, "I couldn't do what He's already done."
He said, "Well, can..." He said, "Will you pray for me?"
I said, "Yes, sir." And I prayed. I said, "Do you believe me?"
He said, "Yes, sir."
I said, "Go on. You'll get your sight."
He said, "Well, just a minute." He held me by the coat. He said, "Just a moment." Now, he said, "Will I receive my sight?"
I said, "Yes, sir. You're going to receive your sight, going to be all right."

L-36 And He said, "Well..." walked off on along little piece, and he come back. Said, "Say, you told me I was going to receive my sight."
I said, "That's right."
He said, "You said I was healed."
I said, "You are."
He said, "Well, you told me I was healed, and I can't see."
I said, "That don't have nothing to do with you seeing." I said, "I told you... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] The man, by the way, was Catholic by faith. And I said, "Look, sir. You told me that you believed me."
He said, "Well, these other people are talking about out here, they're healed and well."
I said, "You are too, sir. Get... Give the Angel of the Lord a chance to..."
And he said, "What must I do?"
I said--I said, "Do you believe what I told you?"
He said, "Yes, sir."
I said, "Well, I want you act like it?" See? I said, "Go on off here testifying, saying, 'Praise the Lord. He healed me.'"
He said, "All right." They led him off, and he hollered, "Praise the Lord for healing me."

L-37 The next night the old fellow interrupt the meeting four or five times. He was setting up in the balcony. He'd say, "Everybody be quiet a minute." He'd raise up and holler, "Praise the Lord for healing me," and set down.
And I was speaking, you know, when he'd say, "Just a minute, Brother Branham." He'd holler, "Praise the Lord for healing me." 
The ushers went over there, and I shook my head; let him alone. See? He was having a good time at it.
