<TITLE>03. Par 9-11</TITLE>L-9 And one morning about daylight I got up, and the wife went out of the room, and... She went out of the room. I'd just wakened up, and I, laying there a little bit. Directly I heard Something coming into the room, and I looked. There was Something moving in the room. And I jumped up, and I said, "Lord, what would You have Your servant know."
Said, "Do not rebuke that. That's the hand of the Lord." See?
So I got her on the phone. I said, "No. God has called your baby."
And so when she come over to see us, the night... Left her at the house when I left yesterday. She said, "What was it, Brother Branham? My--my weakness of faith?"
I said, "You have great faith. You prayed for your baby. You and your husband held on to it, "God, raise that baby." And He refused to do it because He knows what's best. And still you love Him. That's real faith. Anybody, when mountains are moving and things can have faith. But let it go backwards one time, and see how it works. That's when you prove whether you got faith or not.
Every son that cometh to God must be chastened and tried of God. So remember, our trials works patience, and patience works hope, and so forth. So we just hold on to God. Whether He blesses us or not, we are right there to believe Him anyhow, 'cause He's promised it. And to see how He does...

L-10 Now, before we approach the subject by reading of the Word... Because faith cometh by hearing, hearing the Word of God. And now I don't want to be too long, 'cause Brother Jack when he called me and asked to come by this way (which I was happy to do it), said they had some more sick folks wanted to be prayed for. So well, we thought we'd do that, then speak a little while to you before we pray for the sick folks. And I sent Billy down tonight. He said he give out prayer cards, so that if there was a big congested crowd, well, we would call them from prayer cards. And not, we don't have to have it.
So before we approach His Word, let's approach Him just for a moment of prayer.
Would there be any like to be remembered in this prayer tonight? God bless you. God answer your prayers. He knows your needs. Now, with your heads bowed, I wonder if there's a sinner man, or woman, boy, or girl would like to say, "Remember me, Brother Branham, before God tonight as you pray." Would you raise your hands? God bless you. God bless you. God bless you. Many, all over the building, about ten or fifteen hands up, sinners.
Some without the Light of God in their soul by the Holy Spirit, would you raise your hand, say, "Remember me, Brother Branham." God bless you. Oh, just hands everywhere.

L-11 Our heavenly Father, we are approaching Thy throne of grace and mercy. We come humbly in the Name of Jesus because we are sure that He will hear us, for He said, "You ask the Father anything in My Name, I'll do it." So that's the promise, that we know that is true. No matter how much our unbelief hinders it, yet it's true. So we're believing tonight with all that is within us, that You're hearing us.
We believe that You're here, and You will answer our prayers. Especially for those sinners who raised their hands, may they see the Light of God tonight. May this altar find them laying prostrate upon it, begging mercy for their sinful soul. Grant it, Lord. I pray for those that has not got the Holy Spirit in their life to guide them. May God come into that control tower tonight and take over, guiding their light and their life in this dark hour, when it's come to a time where nations don't know what to do.
But Thou art the Way, the Truth, and the Life. We're so glad that we ever found You, Lord, years ago, so precious to our heart. You're a present Help in a time of trouble. I pray for them, each one, that they'll be filled with the Holy Ghost tonight.
Bless the sick and the afflicted that's in the building and out of the building, convalescent, or wherever they may be. We pray for mercy for them, Father.
