<TITLE>18. Par 73-77</TITLE>L-73 While we have our heads bowed, how many on this bottom floor here, will be honest within your heart that--for just the next five minutes, will you raise your hands and say, "Brother Branham, I--I need Christ. Spiritually speaking, I need Christ in my life. And I want Him to give to me the faith and make me Abraham's seed." Would you raise your hand, on the bottom floor?...?... Just put your hands way up. Hold them up for awhile. Surely, in the presence of the Holy Ghost, you'd not be ashamed to do it. God bless you. There's dozens of hands up on the bottom floor.

L-74 Now, you say, "Does that mean anything, Brother Branham, if I put up my hand?" The difference between death and Life if you mean it. You say, "What does that do?" That shows supernatural power when you raise your hand. Science says your hand has to hang down, gravitation holds your hand down. But there's a Spirit here talking to your spirit that tells you that you're wrong. And you break the laws of gravitation when you raise your hand, showing that there's something in you that's made a decision. And you break the laws of gravitation when you raise your hand, 'cause according to science, they have to hang down. Gravitation holds them down. But a spirit in you, making a decision upon your Maker, holds your hand up.

L-75 Now, in the balconies up there. Be honest. Just... Tomorrow night's the great healing services starting. I want you to raise your hand, and say, "Brother Branham, by this I raise my hand to God. I realize I need Him. My faith isn't sufficient. I--I don't, maybe don't live right," or something like that. Raise your hand to Him, will you do it. How many will do that, just raise up your hand.
Brother Duffield, I want to show you something. Keep your heads bowed just a minute, please.
(Do you notice the people that's closer here is the one who gets it? Did you notice that? See, farther back, up there, goes completely out. See? It's phased out. That's strange? But it's working of the Spirit. See? It closer, brings just like when I come to the platform.)
Just something I wanted to show the pastor here, that I been talking about, just so he could see it confirmed.

L-76 Now, how many's sick and needy, really needy? And you want God to heal your body, raise up your hand, just sick and needy. God bless you. Up in the balconies, everywhere.

L-77 Now, will you believe me while... As I... If--if I found grace in--in your sight by the preaching of the Gospel, and if the Holy Spirit has come back and spoke through me, showing that I've told the truth, that's God speaking that I've told the truth.
Remember, each one of you that's sick, Jesus healed you nineteen hundred years ago. When He died at Calvary, He was wounded for your transgressions, with His stripes, you were healed right then. See?
Now, if you're children of Abraham, believe that promise. It's yours. Might not happen just at this minute, might not happen in the morning. It's got to happen. It never happened for Abraham for twenty-five years, but it did happen. But if Abraham would ever give down, it wouldn't happened. But you've got to hold on (See?) to God. Just take a hold of it tonight by faith and believe it, and every one of you will be made well. Do you believe God would hear my prayer? Say, "Amen." if you do. [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] All right.
