<TITLE>05. Par 17-20</TITLE>L-17 There was a lady here some time ago, two of them, come through a prayer line. One of them had a serious stomach trouble, and It told her, "THUS SAITH THE LORD, you're going to be well." Now, how would I... I never had no bit more to do with saying that then I've got, know what I'm going to say day after tomorrow, if I live. See? That--that's Him saying it.
And then, the next lady come through, she had a growth on her neck, and it was again swiftly, "THUS SAITH THE LORD, it's going to leave you." And so she went on believing it. The lady, she thought, "Well, I can go home and eat." So she went home and started to eat, and she got so sick she couldn't hardly stand up. Day after day she tried to hold up her faith and saying, "I believe it anyhow. I believe it."

L-18 Then it got to a place to where she'd just get so sick she'd just vomit and everything. It was a ulcerated stomach: very bad. So maybe six or eight weeks... I forget what she said; it was a long time afterwards. Well, Brother Baxter was in the meeting when it happened. And she went on, and she wrote a letter in. I done been home on a couple more trips, and she said, "Why, Brother Branham, I chased it back on the tape; it said, 'THUS SAITH THE LORD, you're healed.'"
Well, I never even answered, 'cause I knew that if It said that, it's got to happen. And I told them, marked them, and I said, "Now, watch that woman, you'll hear from her again; she just don't understand."

L-19 If you don't come to the afternoon meeting and hear Brother Baxter and them explain what--how demons work and how demonology work in growths and things like that, and how when it goes out... If faith takes it out, unbelief will bring it back, resurrect it. When the unclean spirit's gone out of the man, he walks in dry places, returns again with seven other devils worse than he was. Is that right? You have to understand those things. If you don't, why, you're just like coming somewhere for something you don't know what you're coming after. Then I think the longer meetings is going to help us that way.
Now, the next thing, this woman, she... One morning the children had gone to school, and she was standing, washing the dishes. And all at once she said, "Something just felt so cool and sweet about her; she felt that there was just Something near. And immediately after it she got hungry. So she picked up a little piece of toast the children had left and started eating, nibbling on this toast; it didn't bother her. Usually makes her real sick. Then some of the children had left some oats, and so she started eating those oats. It didn't make her sick. So then she really had a gastronomical jubilee; she drinking a cup of coffee, and eat a fried egg, or something like that. She felt fine. No results at all from it," ill results.

L-20 Down the street she goes to tell her neighbor, way down the street that, about the knot on her--had the knot on her neck; she said she was going down to tell her, said, "She was just feeling fine and eating." A couple of hours had passed, she was just feeling fine, getting hungry again.
And then when she got down there, she heard something screaming and carrying on. She run in the house, she thought, "Wonder what's the matter?" She run in there, and her neighbor was just walking the floor shouting; the knot had just left her throat. And they got to... Then they called me and come to a meeting and asked. "Why," I said, "certainly, when God has said anything, He's under obligation to take care of that. And that Angel of God had just passed through the neighborhood confirming the Word which He'd spoke by God." See?
