<TITLE>15. Par 55-59</TITLE>L-55 The anointing... I have the anointing upon me now. Now, I'm coming down to lay hands on you while the anointing is upon me. That's the reason I had this discernment first.
That man with that kidney trouble setting out there. Go home, sir, you're healed. God makes you well. Forget about it now. Setting there in the dark.
All right. Now, believe with all your heart.
Come here now. [A brother sings as Brother Branham prays for the people in the prayer line--Ed.] [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]

L-56 Saint John, "Know ye what I have done unto you?" Now look. While we are praying, we don't like that... We don't take time for the discernment, because... Oh, there was a few in there that was real bad cases, and one sinner. So, it was... That had to be called out. But otherwise, it was while the anointing of the Holy Spirit was with me, I was laying hands on the sick.
Now, with all my heart, I pray for you. That's all I can do; I'm just a man. See? Now... But the Holy Spirit is here, and will reward you if you will believe that the sickness, and disease, or affliction of your body is condemned. See? It's condemned. It--It can't stay with you no longer. Now, you watch. You...

L-57 I prayed for a woman that her hands was knotted up. And she--she might've been looking for her hands to straighten. It could've been that we could have took that woman there for maybe a half hour, stayed with her until you seen differences beginning to come. Then it would cut others out. See?
Now, maybe at one of the nights, we'll do that. I sh... Will you see... Till I can see in the audience something that's really fixing to happen, I will bring that patient, maybe, to the platform here. Crippled, afflicted, healed just the same... They just watch for something to happen. That doesn't mean it hasn't happened. Something's... You may not see a difference for...

L-58 Here some time ago, I was at a meeting. And as a woman come through, she had ulcerated stomach. And It said, "THUS SAITH THE LORD, you're healed." Another woman came through, had a big knot on her neck. "THUS SAITH THE LORD, you're healed." They went home believing that.
Weeks passed. That woman tried to eat with that stomach trouble. She was so bad, she couldn't stand nothing in her stomach. But still, she held on.
One morning, while the children had gone to school, she took some oats out of one of their plates and begin to eat it; she was so hungry. A real strange feeling came to her, never bothered her. She got some toast and buttered it, eat it. Then she fried two eggs and drank a cup of coffee, never hurt her. It was gone.

L-59 She was happy. She run down the street to tell her sister that--that had the big knot on her neck, that hadn't moved. They called them fanatics because they'd believed. And she said when she got there, that woman was screaming, jumping up-and-down. She run in, she said, "You know, I'm healed of my stomach trouble."
Said, "I just got up awhile ago, I've shook every sheet. That knot's gone; I don't know what happened to it."
See, what happened? God don't always come just in an instant. You remember when Daniel... The Angel told him He tried to get to him for twenty-one days.
If the Angel of the Lord, Who is here, is the Angel of God, It proves Himself to be. And if I've asked the blessing with the sincerity of my heart upon you, and with the same sincerity you've met it, and there's no doubt in your mind at all, you just hold to that and watch what happens. It has to happen. It's got to, It's God's Word. It's God's promise. He has to do it.
