<TITLE>14. Par 51-54</TITLE>L-51 And now, how many in the building tonight, that doesn't have a prayer card, and yet you want the Lord Jesus to heal you, let's see your hand. You have no way of getting in this line, but you want the Lord Jesus to heal you? All right. And up in the balcony... My, I am almost in notion just have some night a--a line just to pass the people through to pray for them. And there's so many to be prayed for. How many would like that, one night, let's see your hand? I am going to someday... I'm sure that I have put too much of the meeting on the phenomenal and just let the people have faith.
What I'm scared of is, I would take something off of someone, that God had put on for punishment. And if I'd take it off, then it would be... God would make me settle with Him.
Remember Moses--Moses what he did there? He had power to do it, and he smote the rock when God told him not to do it. But God taken him up and wouldn't let him come in the promised land. I sure want to go over, don't you? I--I--I want to be sure that I know what I'm doing. And then I--what He says, then I know that is right. And I'm trusting to God for everyone.

L-52 But here, this type of ministry in America... While they are getting a--a prayer... Let's see if they got all of them over there... If they haven't, then maybe if we have a little time left, we'll call somewhere else in--in there, and get some more people up. It doesn't matter how many stands up. Sometimes I don't get to three, or four, or five. Sometimes I get to fifty in a night: depends on how faith runs.
But now, dear Christians, I'm still receiving letters of criticism because of weakness. I can't help it. Honest, I can't. It's something that the Lord Jesus does. And do you know if He be... Christ was God. Do you know that? What is the Word "Christ?" Means "the Anointed one." And God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself. Do you believe that? Well, if just a--a virtue would go from Him, the immortal Son of God, what would it do to a poor lost sinner, saved by grace, like me? See? So I... But on next time, coming to Chicago, it'll be different meeting.

L-53 In--in Africa, India, anywhere... Call one person to the platform or let the Holy Spirit reveal something out there, the entire group will do anything that you tell them to do. And at Durban, Africa, that day, as witnesses are setting here. Brother Stadsklev, our chaplain friend setting here somewhere (He's on the platform with me a few moments ago.), he was there to know, after a man had been--walked like a dog. And when he was raised up and made whole by a vision that the Lord had showed, told him who he was, all about it--twenty-five thousand people accept--er--thirty-thousand people accepted Christ at one time, as their Saviour.
And Dr. F. F. Bosworth, who just left this afternoon for Japan (Spoke this afternoon... a very true man... And I know wouldn't say anything 'less it was absolutely the truth.), he said, "Brother Branham, there was at least twenty-five thousand people healed in that one prayer that you prayed."

L-54 But in America, when we see that, well, "Dr. Jones said it was psychology. Somebody else said it was mental telepathy." And we--we get reasons. Why? We're just tossed about by every wind of doctrine. One says this and one says that. Friends, examine it in the light of the Bible. If the Bible said so, it's true. If it doesn't, it isn't true.
Now, may the Lord bless. And now, I think they're getting some handkerchiefs ready here to be prayed for. And any time that you lose your handkerchief or something and would desire to... (take stuff away from me... ) [Brother Branham talks to someone--Ed.] then, when if you'd lose your handkerchiefs and would want to a--one, just write me at Jeffersonville, Indiana, and I'll be glad to send it to you.
