<TITLE>12. Par 39-41</TITLE>L-39 Now notice, then another thing she had to do: Being a woman, she had to confront, now, the desert. Now, do you know how far it is from--from Palestine down across the Sahara desert to Sheba? Well, it takes just exactly three months on the back of a camel. Now, she didn't have like we'd have, an air conditioned Cadillac to come across that desert in. She had to come on the back of a camel to see a man that had a gift. And not just take her two hours of her time, but would take her three months. And some of the people today, won't walk across the street to see something greater than was then. No wonder Jesus said, "She'll stand in the day of judgment and condemn this generation."
Look what she had to do. Now, she had three months on the back of a camel in the desert. Now, remember, the desert was full of Ishmael's children, which were robbers--and all that gold on this little bunch of camels, with a few widows with her, or women, and some eunuchs to guard her (just a little bitty bunch of men). What would that great tribe of Ishmael do? Run right in and cut them down and take... She had all that to confront. But you know if you're really wanting to find out truth, God will take you to the Fountain, don't you never worry about that. There's nothing will stand in your way. There's no organization, there's no papa, no mama, no neighbor, no brother, no sister, no friend, no nothing, can separate you from God if you really hunger to find God.

L-40 She takes out on the camels to go through that hot sun. Oh, what a time it was of--on this camel, now, for three months (ninety days), to come to find out whether it was the truth or not. And we, today, as ministers sometimes, will condemn a thing and say it's of the devil before we even go search the Scriptures about it.
Now what will--after we've had two thousand years of teaching since then, what will we do when she stands in the day of judgment? What will that woman say in the day of judgment when Dallas rises in the resurrection? What will she say in the day of judgment when the whole United States rises in the day of judgment, with this great, mighty revival that's swept the country and people's branded it fanaticism, the devil, polished up soothsayer, some kind of a evil spirit, fortuneteller, mind reader? What will they do in the day of judgment?

L-41 And she finally arrived. God made a way for her to arrive. He will make a way for you to arrive.
There's people... I just met two boys out here. Their mother was healed in Arkansas, not long ago. And there they've been, out here, sleeping in cars and bushes; not because they wanted healing, but they just loved to come. They hear that God's a visiting us, and they love to watch His works.
A gangster put his arm around me out there, a man that was a gangster (killing and murdering), and has been saved. And for the past months, the man hitch hiking on the roads, all through Maine and everywhere, following around, sleeping in bushes, in the car, anywhere he could, because he loves God, and there's something in it, he says, "Just stirs my soul, Brother Branham. I must come." God bless him. What--what will the--what will the mayor of the city, and the great men of this town, and the religionists of this town will do, when they stand with that man in the day of the judgment? What will happen to the preachers of this city? Many of them who turn it down, say it's fanaticism, warning their people not to get around it? See? There you are. But God sends His gifts just the same. He has to do it. He's sovereign; He must do it. He has in all ages. When they turn it down, that's up to them.
