<TITLE>02. Par 4-7</TITLE>L-4 So this little lady got hers, and there was an instruction there that says, "If you... If it's possible, call in your pastor. And then, if... Let him have prayer with you when you put the ribbon on you. And if you don't have your pastor handy, then call some good Christian neighbor. If you've done any sin, evil to any one, spoken evil, or done anything wrong that you know of, go make that right first before you put the ribbon on you. And then, get ready, and then when they put the ribbon on, then believe that God heals. Place it (I tell them.) on their underneath garment near their heart. And at so many hours: nine o'clock at morning, twelve o'clock at noon, and three o'clock in the afternoon, the world around, there's a prayer chain on that. People get up at two o'clock in the morning and so forth, to make that prayer chain around the world." And then, if maybe a million and a half or two million people praying at one time for each other, something's just got to happen. God just is bound to hear that. And then...

L-5 So on that, they would... This little German lady... It was very well; I wouldn't want to say like it was sacrilegious to say it, kindy cute. But she said, "I put the little handkerchief on me." She said, "There was... My neighbor lady come over to pray with me." And she said, "I had all my sins I confessed, and I asked the Lord to let me walk again so I could glorify Him." Said, "When all was done, Bruder Branham," said, "I put the little ribbon on my underneath garment, and I said, 'All right, Mr. Devil, you held me just as long as you're going to.'" She got up out of the wheelchair and went walking on. That's just that simple. If you--just being simple. You know, the trouble with we Christians--or we human beings--we make God so far away and so complicated. The simplicity...

L-6 I've been noticing each night a couple of Indians setting right along here; they're not here (I suppose) tonight. But someone told me that--that there was some singers had been singing, some Indian boys had been singing. I would like to have heard them before they left. But however, I was thinking of the first time I ever preached to Indians. It was the Apaches at--in Arizona, up at San Carlos. And so... The Indian is a very odd fellow. I found that out from going fishing the other morning.
I asked of one what he was using for bait. He said, "Just bait." He wouldn't tell me.
I said, "Thank you, sir." He sure was a fisherman. And so, I was... They're amazing.

L-7 I remember my boy one time was giving out prayer cards at a big tent meeting in Phoenix. And I found coming on the prayer line people with maybe a headache, and a bad tooth, and people setting out there with cancer, dying.
And I said, "Billy, don't you do that. You ask the people what's wrong with them." He usually just mixes up the cards and gives them to anybody that wants them. So then, I said, "Don't do that." I said, "Because you ask the people... There's too many real serious sick people there just to give a fellow a card that's got a--having a headache or a toothache, and a man setting there dying with cancer and wanting to be prayed for." I said, "Now, you shouldn't do that." I said, "Just ask them what's wrong."
