<TITLE>01. Par 1-4</TITLE>61-0312, Faithful Abraham, Lyric Building, Richmond, VA, 121 min
L-1 Let's remain standing just a moment while we meet God in prayer. How many has a request today? Would you just let it be known by the uplifted hand? Let's believe Him now as we pray.
Our heavenly Father, we thank Thee for what our eyes have seen, and our ears have heard, the revelation of Jesus Christ to His people, and have the privilege of living in this day, that all the patriarchs, and prophets, apostles, and great men in years gone by has longed to see this day. They could only rise on the scene, those ancient prophets, and see the very thing that they saw in them years, now being done; what an evangelistic services there would be. Perhaps, locked in jails, call them "crazy people."... We live in the day to see all of this that they saw by faith.

L-2 God, let us take the opportunity while it's presented to us. They are depending on us. They left their Word, the Word of God, that was shown to them. They're depending on us to carry It out. Jesus came to confirm It, and to send the Holy Spirit to continue the work and give us power to work by, till these things be all finished, and then the great ransomed church of the living God be caught up to met Him.
There are some here today, Father, who does not have this blessed restful hope in their souls. May this be the day that they will receive it.
There maybe those here who have grown weary in the way. Let them know, Lord, that we never come to a picnic, but to a battleground: fight, every inch of the way. Give them courage. Strengthen them.

L-3 There's some here that has been wounded, Lord. The enemy has shot darts of sickness into their body and afflictions. They're warriors laying here on the battlefield, that would be up and going if they could; but they are--must be taken to the inn where the caretaker is to take care.
Father, may the ambulance of God carry them to a real genuine faith this afternoon. Grant it, Lord. We pray that they'll be healed.
There was some raised their hands, Lord, that I don't know what their troubles was, what their desire is. Whatever it is, I pray for them, Father, that You'll grant their desire to them. Get glory out of the services as we present ourselves and the--our Gospel that You left us to preach to Thee for further work in confirmation, in Jesus' Name. Amen. May be seated.

L-4 I truly say that I'm sorry that this is the closing service of this little revival, or just... We haven't had time for a revival: our little get together. But I come at the invitation of this fine group of men, ministers of the city, and around about because of--I felt led to come. There is places waiting. I don't say this just to say it; I say because it's true. There's places waiting that's got tens of thousands of people together, all overseas. Hundreds of places overseas, major cities in America around. But I usually lay the things out, the invitations, and pray over them. No matter where it's at, wherever the Lord says, go, I go.
Just here some time ago I read an invitation, wife and I were getting the invitations at the house. And one man said, "Brother Branham, if you'll come, we'll guarantee such-an-such a money, you know, and so much, if you'll just come."
