<TITLE>01. Par 1-4</TITLE>58-0501, We Would See Jesus, Manhattan Center, New York, NY, 84 min
L-1 Thank you. And remain standing just a moment now for prayer. Dear God, we have assembled here, tonight, for no other purpose but to learn of Thee and of Thy goodness to the children of man. And we would ask You to visit us tonight, with a great outpouring of Thy Presence. And give unto us, Lord, the desire of our hungry heart, for it's truly--that's what we hunger for, is to know Him. And to know Him is Life. And oh, what is greater tonight, than Life? So we would ask You to give us the abundance of Life tonight.

L-2 And Lord, in doing so, if there would be some here who does not know Thee, and has not yet received Everlasting Life, may this be the night that they'll say that one eternal, "Yes," to the Almighty God.
We would ask You also, Lord, to not forget those who are sick and afflicted and so needy: the dumb, and the blind, and the deaf, and the--the cancer-ridden, and all manner of sickness. Thou art just the same today as You was yesterday, and shall forever be the same. So help us tonight, to enjoy this full fellowship of the Presence of the Son of God. For we ask it in His Name. Amen. The Lord bless you, and you may be seated.

L-3 [Someone speaks to Brother Branham--Ed.] Yes, it is...?...
I deem this a great privilege tonight, to be back here in this great city of New York, in the service of the Lord God. It's been some time since I've had this great privilege. And usually when we come, we are on our road overseas. But tonight we're just leaving tomorrow for the neighboring city. And we are trusting that God will meet with us over there also.
Sometime ago, I was asked by our dear friend, Brother Sweet, when I was over in Brooklyn, if I would visit the city or the New England states, for it was on his heart that, believing that the New England states had been greatly neglected in these type of meetings, as such as the meetings of Divine healing, and praying for the sick.
And it's always a privilege to get to serve those who are neglected. And we're going now, all through the New England states, this coming thirty days, a full thirty days of service. I believe there's two days or maybe three, that I will not be preaching.
Then we return back to Dallas, Texas. And then over to the International Fellowship of the Independent Ministerial Association in Greeneville, South Carolina. And then back up to the New England states again for the Full Gospel Businessmen's International Convention.
And then from there we go to Durban, South Africa. Perhaps, back to Germany and some of the other places as we can get staged.

L-4 So, they have taken much time tonight, because of being the first night. There's always just a little miscellaneous that they can't get to right quick. So, it's usually late then, when we get started.
But I'm sure the Lord will bless us if we just don't be nervous. Just--we want to think that maybe it will be our time tonight, to receive that great blessing that we've looked forward to for so long. I'm sure that every hungry heart here, is desiring something from our Lord. And He's just good to come and do it for us tonight. And we love Him for that, and we're--here, myself, under great expectations for God to do something for us tonight.
And I won't speak to you very long. I just wish to read some of His Word. I love His Word. I'm sure you do too.
