<TITLE>09. Par 41-45</TITLE>L-41 You say to me, "I've got good eyesight, Mr. Branham." Well, I'm thankful for that. But you might have ever such a good physical sight and be spiritually blind. Let God open your spiritual sight. After all, you don't see with your eyes. Did you know that? No, you look with your eyes. You see with your heart.
Jesus said, Saint John 3, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God." You mean you can't understand the Kingdom of God until you're borned again.
You look right at a certain thing, say, "I just don't see it." You're looking with your eyes but you mean you don't understand it.

L-42 And that's the kind of the eyes tonight that must be opened, and there's only one salve that will do it. Oh, you couldn't take a shot of penicillin for it. Neither could you ever bathe your eyes with coon grease and do it. No doctor has a remedy for it. But God has a Holy Spirit of His anointing Oil that He pours on your oil--on your eyes, and you say, "Now I see. I once was lost and now I'm found, was blind but now I see." That's the eyes we want open. Can watch at the platform; look at the Bible; Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever. And your eyes open and you can see Him.

L-43 After His resurrection, there was some men, one of them's name was Cleopas and his friend was on their journey back down the road, going back to their old task again. And as they went down along the road, a Stranger come out, a Man that they had walked with for three and a half years, walked, dodged every cobblestone down along that rough road if you ever walked it. Went around every bend, shook hands with Him, and was blind and didn't know Him until He got them down to Emmaus, got on the inside of the room with them, and then He opened their eyes. And they recognized that it was the Lord. Oh, as soon as their eyes were opened, it taken the whole Sabbath day to journey, they were back over there just in a few minutes.
When your eyes come open, you go to work for God right quick. You don't worry no more. You just go to work. On the inside of the heart is the eyes, the eyes of understanding.

L-44 A minister said to me some time ago... I was in a house meeting, and he said to me, "Mr. Branham, I'll bring up a little crippled girl, and if you'll heal that girl, I'll believe you."
I said, "I'm going to say the same thing to you that my Lord said to your pappy, 'Get behind me, Satan.'" You know, that's exactly right. I said, "I've got a sinner friend setting out yonder in a house that's got a cigar in his mouth that long, cursing every breath because his wife's in this meeting, you go save that man, and I'll believe that you can save."
He said, "I can if he'd believe."
I said, "Have the girl to make the same faith and I can too." Certainly. It's based upon your faith.

L-45 In the days of our Lord Jesus the people couldn't doubt Him being a Healer, but they said, "He wasn't a Saviour." The devil just burst the table on them. Today they say, "He can save, but He can't heal." He's the same yesterday, today, and forever, the Saviour, the Healer, the King of heaven, the Author of Eternal Life, and the Giver of every good gift comes from God through Jesus Christ.
Your eyes being opened... Oh, if we could only see. Watch and see what He does in His great powers, especially in these days now that when we're living in this tremendous time. The shake of the people, where people don't know what to do... America needs missionaries worse than any nation I was ever in. That's right.
