<TITLE>05. Par 16-19</TITLE>L-16 And I went to the door and looked around, and Billy was just driving away. And I hollered at him; I said, "Just a minute." And I... He come back to the door and said, "Daddy, what's the matter with you, what's you crying about?"
I said, "I will be ready in just a minute." I washed my face real quick, and got in the car, went down. He never said nothing going down. We got in, and Brother Baxter was standing at the piano singing, "Down From His Glory."
We walked in and I begin to minister a little bit, begin to start talking. And I heard a testimony back there, and I didn't know what it was, and they brought me the testimony. And there'd been a woman who had lived over here near Twin City that had tuberculosis, and been in bed for years, was having hemorrhages. The doctor told her about four months before that, if she ever had another hemorrhage it would be done.

L-17 And so the ambulance wouldn't take a chance of bringing her. Some of the saints had fixed her car up in the back, and fixed her a place so she just lay back, and they was going to bring her over. She'd read my book. And on the road over, coming over, getting late in the evening, she was riding along and the jolting of the car, away went a big gush of blood. And she just started just bleeding right out like that, she got lower and lower.
Well, she didn't want to die in the car, so they stopped the car and laid her out on the grass flat. And all the saints was standing around over her a praying like that. And all at once the blood stopped, and she jumped up and run down the road, run back and forth; she didn't know what had happened, just perfectly normal. And she come in back there testifying. And I checked it, and at the very same time that woman was dying, that was the same time that was speaking through me, the Holy Ghost making intercession for that woman that was dying.

L-18 Oh, see what I mean? The Holy Ghost. Remember the story about the opossum last night? Praying for the sick, how it has an affect. Prayer of faith shall save the sick. And many times through vision, He'd come and have me to pray for people. And that's the reason I think by not giving the people a chance to come through, be prayed for, well, it's--it hindered a whole lot. And so I'm going to try start doing that, if I have to use certain nights in the meeting for that purpose.
Now, the Lord bless you real good, and be in prayer. And we're going to read just a little bit of God's Word here, for we know that His Word won't fail. Mine will, yours will, but... We can make appointments and promises that we hope to keep, but sometimes we can't keep them. But He never makes a promise unless He can fulfill it. And He will always fulfill His Word.

L-19 Now over in Numbers the 13th chapter and the 30th verse we read this:
And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.
May the Lord add His blessings to His Word now. Last evening, and the last two evenings, we been teaching, just a little short session, of the Book of Exodus: the calling out of the people of God, because we believe it's essential in this day.
I remember here a few years ago, I was a year and six months in my church, a teaching the Book of Exodus. And I--I was two years one time on Job. And I remember, I'd had Job on the ash heap for about four weeks. Every Sunday, Job on the ash heap. Such a beautiful story, God dealing with His saint. And how that we get in those places, and distress, and don't know where to turn. And I was working for a climax. One dear sister, bless her heart, she didn't want to hurt my feelings, said, "Brother Branham, I enjoy every minute, but when are you going to get Job off the ash heap?" Oh, my. Well, God brought him off all right with a victory.
