<TITLE>06. Par 21-24</TITLE>L-21 Now, the compound word, the--the word "breasted," like... How could we ever take Jehovah-jireh out of the Bible, or Jehovah-rapha, the Healer, and accept Jehovah-jireh, the Lord's provided sacrifice? And in all these compound names, they were every one met in Jesus Christ. He was Jehovah-jireh, the provided Sacrifice, He was Jehovah-rapha, the Healer, He was Jehovah, the Banner, Jehovah, the Buckler, Jehovah, the Peace, Jehovah, the Shepherd. All those compound redemptive names was applied to the Lord Jesus. You couldn't apply one and take the other one away. And if they was not applied, He was not Jesus, the Son of God. There you are. They're inseparable, you can't--you can't separate God's compound names. And if one of them was applied to Jesus, all of them was applied to Jesus. So if He's God's provided Sacrifice for sin, He's God's provided Atonement for healing, the same yesterday, today, and forever.
When He was here on earth, He said, "As Moses lifted up the brass serpent in the wilderness, so must the son of man be lifted up," for the same reasons.

L-22 Moses lifted up the brass serpent for a compound reason. Why? Because the people were backslidden, chiding against God, and against Moses. And the... Moses lifted up the brass serpent for their forgiveness of sin and the healing of their body. And just as the brass serpent represented Christ, He was lifted up for the forgiveness of our sins and the healing of our body.
He appeared to Abraham as Jehovah-jireh, Jehovah-rapha. He appeared to him here as El Shaddai. Oh, I... We could take each one of those and stay here six months and never get out of it, just taking it from Genesis to Revelations, right back and forth. I love the Word. The Word of God, It's established. We may hear a lot of false fandangos, and a lot of things that isn't true, and made up, but that Word is everlasting, it's God's eternal promise.

L-23 And remember, you can mark me down on the paper of time, and put it in the history when I'm passed on, that when I appear at the judgment bar, I say this, that every Divine promise of God in the Bible is true. And if you'll take the right mental attitude towards any Divine promise of God it'll bring it to pass. Remember, don't forget it. If you, personally, you, can take the right mental attitude towards any of those Divine promises, it'll bring it to pass. It's... Now, if you don't...
Fellow met me here not long ago and said, "Oh, Brother Branham, I don't care what you'd say, I don't believe in Divine healing."
I said, "It's not for you."
He said, "Why?"
I said, "You're an unbeliever. It's only to those who believe. That's the only one who can receive it, is believers, not to unbelievers. It's just to those who believe."

L-24 And so that's the way God deals, only with believers. And Abraham was God's called out, elected servant and prophet. And God met him and kept encouraging him as he waited for the fulfilling of the promise.
Say, "I wished He'd do that to me."
That's why you're here tonight. That's the reason these people are laying here on these stretchers tonight, these parents has brought these little children. Something in them, they heard others being made well. Here they come. What is it? It's the same thing: God encouraging you on, believe.
