<TITLE>20. Par 244-258</TITLE>L-244 This Mr. Andrews, then when I went out and told him. And on the third day, about two... Well, about two hours from then we come back home. And he come...
This was the commons here then. He come walking across there. They had called him, said, "Your wife's a dying." Said, "She's got death rattles in her throat. You better come."
And here he come back all disappointed. He said, "Brother Branham," said, "the doctor said she's going to die." Said, "He's right there now. He said, 'She's going to die.'"
I said, "But the Lord Jesus said she's going to live."
Said, "Well, how can... If she dies, can she live?"
Said, "She's already alive."
Hallelujah. Don't get excited at hallelujah. It means "praise our God." There ever was a morning the hallelujahs ought to ring from people, is this morning...?... That's right. Praise our God, for every shadow of death taken away. He lives.

L-248 Notice. And he said, "Well, now," said, "how is she going to do it?"
I said, "I... That's not me to figure out. It's just me to believe what God said He's going to do."
So then he was awful sad. And after while he went out to the hospital.
Here he come back, and around the house he come, clippity, clippity, clippity. He run in, said, "Preacher, you know what's happened?"
And I said, "What, Mr. Andrews?" I was still setting there, shining away, you know.
He said, "You know what's happened."
And I said, "What's happened, Mr. Andrews?"
Said, "She raised up. All the water has passed from her. She said, 'I'm starving to death.'" Said, "They went and got her some bouillon. She said, 'I don't want bouillon. I want wieners and sauerkraut.'" She was hungry.

L-254 What was it? What was it? Because He rose from the dead. That woman come from the hospital a well woman.
 He lives, He lives, salvation to impart!
 You ask me how I know He lives?
 He lives within my heart.
That's right. He come around there. And on three days after that, I propped my feet on the front porch, eat the nicest apple pie, about, I ever eat. Why? He lives. He rose from the dead.

L-256 This little woman over here, when she rose up from that tubercular, and the hospital said she was going to die... She walked around here, then she refused. She thought it was fanaticism to come be baptized.
And setting there one night with a high fever in her home, she could hear me preaching down through there, through her home. I was preaching on water baptism. She rose and come, and staggered her way into the church. And she was setting right back there. And she said, "I must be baptized." Great lump had swelled up on her shoulder. Mrs. Weber, over here, went and got her a robe and come put it on her. She walked into the pool with a fever a hundred and four and was baptized there according to what she promised God. And today... That's been years ago. And today, there she is, setting here alive this morning, is because God lives and reigns, and He rose from the dead.

L-258 A few weeks ago, her and her daughter was over in Louisville. They were coming down along the street, and there was a poor, old beggar woman setting there. And she was begging. Said, "Lady, please help me. I'm in need." She looked in her pocket; she had just enough money, fifteen cents, I believe it was, for them to cross the bridge.
She was walking along. She started walking on down the street. The Lord said to her, said, "Now, when you was helpless, I helped you. And that woman's helpless, and you won't help her."
She walked along on a little farther, said, "Lord, but I only got the fifteen cents. How would me and my girl get home? How could we do it?"
He said, "What is that to thee? Follow thou Me."
She turns back around, goes back. She said, "Lady, excuse me." Said, "I only have fifteen cents, is all I had for daughter and I to cross the bridge." Said, "I give it to you. It's all I got. I'm sorry I haven't got any more."
She said, "The Lord bless you, my daughter."
