<TITLE>14. Par 40-44</TITLE>L-40 If there is not, is there a backslider would say, "When you pray, Brother Branham, remember me." That you're--that you're not polished up enough, you've got so much world on you that God can't reflect Himself through you. You once seemed like you were called for a morning star, but you been down in the smoke, and it's got your lights all smoked out. The Holy Spirit can shine against you, and yet you're so dull, you set and say, "I'm too tired. I've been in meetings before. I don't know." Oh, what a miserable person you are. Oh, let the Blood of Jesus Christ wash your soul, friend, that you might reflect the light of the Son of God. Young and old, do that, will you? Let us bow our heads again, just a moment. Let's sing a hymn.
 I love Him, I love Him
 Because He first loved me
 And purchased my salvation
 On Calvary's tree.
 I love Him, I love Him
 Because He first loved me
 And purchased my salvation
 On Calvary's tree. [Brother Branham hums--Ed.]

L-41 O Father God, in the quietness of the Spirit move upon our hearts. I've asked for those who doesn't know You to identify themselves tonight with You as the morning stars. I'd ask Thee now, Father, that You might let the people or the strangers in our gate know tonight that You're here. This was ordained of You. It is easy for a man to speak something, but if God doesn't back up what he's saying, Father... Like Moses of old, "How will they believe me?"
And You give him a sign to perform and said, "This they will know." And You're still God, and the hour of deliverance is at hand. I pray, God, that the people will come out of spiritual Egypt and Sodom. May the sign that was given to Sodom, as You promised... Sodom, that You'll perform that sign before them tonight that it might be known that this is truth and the hour is at hand. I commit it all to You, Father, yielding myself with these, my friends, my brothers and sisters, as we fellowship together in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-42 [Brother Branham begins humming--Ed.]
 I love Him.
 Because He first loved...
Everyone be real quiet now. We're calling on God to do something. I can see a little woman, one time in the Bible. She seen Jesus come across the ocean, or the little lake. And she said, "If I can touch His garment, I'll be made well." She'd had an issue of blood for a long time. And she said, "That's a holy Man. That's the Son of God. If I can touch His garment, I'll be made well." She pressed through the crowd until she cou--touched His garment.
He turned around and said, "Who touched Me?" No one seemed to identify, but the little woman could not hide herself. Jesus looked back in the midst of the people. He told her that her blood issue had been healed because she had believed.

L-43 Nathanael went and got--or Philip went and got Nathanael and brought him up into the--where Jesus was. And He said to him, "Behold, an Israelite in whom there is no guile."
He said, "Rabbi, when did You know me?"
He said, "Before Philip called you, when you were under a tree, I saw you": a day before, fifteen miles around the mountain.
He said, "Rabbi, You're the Son of God."

L-44 When He went to the Samaria, He told the woman at the well of her husbands. And she said, "Sir, You must be a prophet. We know when the Messiah cometh, He will do this."
He said, "I am He that speaks with you."
She went and told the men in the city. She said, "Come, see a Man, Who has revealed to me the things in my heart; isn't this the Messiah?" Sure it was.
Now, He promised... He said, "Don't go to the Gentiles." Now, He never did that before Gentiles. See? We were.. The Anglo-Saxons were heathens in them days. But now it's come our time, the evening lights are here. "Watchman, what of the night?" Oh, morning stars...
