<TITLE>14. Par 33-36</TITLE>L-33 He said, "Well, all right." He said, "Brother Branham, I will keep on till God give you, He shows me if I'm ever going to be well, or not, or what I can do." Poor old fellow... Standing there I looked, coming up from him, I seen a palm tree standing out there. I seen him with a brown suit on, a white shirt and a brown tie, standing perfectly straight, lifting up his hands and arms, walking like this.
I said, "Brother Reed, THUS SAITH THE LORD, I don't know when; I don't know how; I don't know where it'll be; it isn't here, 'cause there isn't no palm trees here. But you'll be standing somewhere by the side of a palm tree with a brown suit on and a brown tie, and a white shirt. You are going to be a well man, whether it's this year, next year, or ten years from now, I don't know, but THUS SAITH THE SPIRIT."

L-34 So that, I went on overseas to Finland, and so forth, and come back, and went down, and that night just before I went to the meeting, Brother Baxter, which is listening right now, here somewhere. And he was--he was with me, and I'd been in the room for three days, just fasting and praying. Am I taking too much of your time? [Congregation says, "No."--Ed.] I hope not. See? I--I had been fasting and praying and wouldn't go out to eat. And Brother Baxter come said, "You got to eat tonight." So he took me down to the cafeteria. And just as we got in the cafeteria, he said, "Say," he said, "we're kind of trapped in here." Said, "There's some of our friends in there," and they're probably sitting close now too. They was the ones that give that hat the other day, the Willbanks. Those are very fine friends. Said, "They'll sure want to talk to you."
Well, it's not as I don't want to talk to people, but when that's on, you just simply goes to revealing things. So when we started out, Brother and Sister Willbank, sure enough, they visited me the other day down home. And they were standing there, excited over...?... Said, "Brother Branham, I want to shake your hand."

L-35 And Brother Baxter said, "Now, look." Said, "Don't talk to him."
And they--they said, "We understand." They're very lovely. He just shook my hand. I started on down the street. And I started walking down the street; the Holy Spirit said, "Turn around and go in the car with them."
I thought, "I was just impressed, I'd go on." I said, "Brother Baxter, it's a nice night."
And he said, "Yes."
I felt Something stop me. Looked like I couldn't move my legs any more, just getting, couldn't move my legs no more. I stopped real soon. He said, "What's the matter?"
I said, "Brother Baxter, I must go back and get in the car with Willbanks."
He said, "Brother Branham, you can't..."
I said, "It's the Spirit of the Lord."
He said, "All right, then."
So we turned and went back, and got into the car. I said, "Will you take me around to the hotel, Brother Willbank?"

L-36 He said, "Yes."
We went around to the hotel. And when we got out at the hotel, at the hotel, we started up, Brother Baxter went walking on in. I started in. And Something said, "Go back and talk to Willbank." I went back; I said, "Friends, I hope there's nothing wrong with your family. There's Something here, that just keeps telling me to--about this." I said, "Not to--to--to, not to do this, you see. And not to go in, and so forth."
He said, "Well," he said, "now, there's nothing wrong with us, or not."
Said, "There's something strange." And Brother Baxter had done went over, there was a--a lane over there with some flowers in it, right almost at the hotel, and Brother Baxter was standing over there with this messing around the flowers.
Said, "Come on in, Brother Branham?"
I said, "In a little bit." And I said, "I don't know; there's something happening somewhere." And I stayed there about three or four minutes.
