<TITLE>02. Par 5-8</TITLE>L-5 So I got about a month's constant of services before I get any let up at all. We leave right straight from here and go to Columbia; and from Columbia to Spindale; from Spindale to--to Charlotte; and from Charlotte to Anchorage, Alaska, and then come right back and in the Cadle Tabernacle, right back to Minneapolis and overseas. So we're just really--just right--one right after the other. Well, I love to do it. If you all will just pray for me, I will just keep on going. It's--it's...
I was talking to a minister not long ago; he said, "Well, Brother Branham, it's good to wear out instead of rust out as it is setting around wishing."

L-6 So I thought tonight it might be good for us getting acquainted again, or having a little fellowship around the Word, and ask you a little favor, if I could just have a congregational prayer for a night or two. I come pretty near just passing out of the picture in Mexico last week, and I want to tell you about the meeting. I thought coming right straight here, and went to my home Sunday when I should not have done it, to never have that type of meeting. But my heart is so thrilled. How many's read the vision, let's see? It's... Sure, all of you have. And my heart is a longing for that. Now, you mark my word. See? And this is not me; it's THUS SAITH THE LORD. See? That's going to be the greatest of all, right there when the Lord, when we get to moving the services in that manner. And I'm longing just like a child with Christmas anticipations to get to it.
And I thought Sunday maybe I could run a service like that at my tabernacle. And then when I--I did, there was just so many packed in there till I couldn't do it. And then we had to run it just a regular prayer line like we do here, whatmore. That was yesterday, and it--it tore me down pretty bad. And so tonight makes me more tired than ever.

L-7 And then I thought I would tell you about our--our lovely trip down in--in Mexico, read some Scripture, talk to you about the Lord and just see what He'd have us to do. I te--tell you; I can appreciate the Lord Jesus and His blessings more than I ever in my life. And if I know that we're living in the day that we are, and so many things that missionary life consists of... Especially these evangelistic missionaries where we're all over the world among all kinds of diseases and--and everything, you--you... I tell you it's a hard thing. You wouldn't think it, but it's a real hard thing when you have to go in to people where you have to eat what they got and trust God; it's full of everything. And--and you just don't realize. Leprosy and--and everything that could be thought of... And right in there, and dirt and filth and everything. You--you just have to close your eyes and eat anyhow, 'cause you're winning them to Christ. That's right. And it's a pleasure to do it for Him Who died for you and I. That's right. And to know that His love has been so kind to us...

L-8 We're here in this old feeble body, pest house. But just think, after this earthly tabernacle is dissolved, we're stepping into one right over there just beyond the veil. We won't be there long. That's right. We wasn't made for that one. We wasn't made to be Angels. God's got Angels, but we were created men and women. So that's the way we'll--we must be. And when we're up there in that celestial body, we're not in our right estate. You see?
And then when Israel was away from their homeland in Egypt, they had a memorial before them that someday they were going back to the homeland. You know what it was? The bones of Joseph. And when they passed by, no matter how tired and weary they was, they'd look in and see the bones of that prophet; they knew that someday someone was coming, and those bones would be packed out; and they were on their road to the promised land, back home.
