<TITLE>01. Par 1-6</TITLE>61-0723M, The Ever-Present Water From The Rock, Branham Tabernacle, Jeffersonville, IN, 106 min
L-1 We are grateful this morning for the Presence of the Lord God, that would begin the early services by giving us a message, that--that we should "listen, be reverent" before Him, that He has something to say to us. I'm sure that He will do that what He has promised. He always does keep His Word. And so we are grateful to be assembled together, alive, and this side of eternity this morning, and able to worship the Lord again, and to assemble ourselves together and hear from Him. That's the reasons we come together, is for this very purpose.

L-2 Now, I kinda stormed in on Brother Neville, unexpectedly, today, because of a certain dream I had. That... I believe in--in dreams. I believe that God deals with people by dreams. And I had a very unusual dream, night before last, that I was going along a hillside, certain hillside, going to an eating place where I was to have my--my dinner. And I noticed that, as I got close to the place, they were playing music, an orchestra was playing music with violins, and entertaining the people while they were eating. And there was something about it that I didn't like, so I just bypassed the thing. And I met someone coming up a hill. And I looked, and many people were coming up the hill to this eating place. But I kinda got away from them, turned back to the right, or, to the left.

L-3 And somehow, down in the valley, I could see the Tabernacle. I heard someone's voice, said, "Meet Brother Branham at a certain-certain crossing. He's coming down the hill up there. And tell him such-and-such a thing." And I hurried to get to this crossing.
And when the person come up, it was Brother Neville wearing his brown suit, looked just like he looks setting there this morning. And he said, "Brother Branham, if you're going to be in the city," said, "it would be a--a good thing for you to come down, because Brother Hank..." Now, the only one I know, Brother Hank, is Brother Henry Carlson; we call him Hank. Said, "He might think it was strange that you didn't visit the Tabernacle more if you're going to be around the town for--around the city for a few days." I woke up.
And at that, I felt kinda strange. I didn't want to butt in at that time of week, till I asked Brother Neville if he had anything special for this morning for the church. So he was gracious, as always, said, "Come on down." So we just come on. I called him late yesterday afternoon and come in this morning unexpectingly to any of us.

L-6 Now, I believe that it would be a good thing, first, for me just kinda to--to explain to you some things. I am, supposingly, a very odd person to many people. And I'm kinda odd to myself, also. Because I try to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit just as close as I can. And that makes us odd. See? We do things that we--we really set down and wonder sometimes, "Why did I do such a thing? How did I ever do such a thing?" And right then you may think that you have done exactly what you should not have done. But if you'll just be patiently, and have faith, and you're sure that God has led you to do it, you'll find out it works out just exactly right. See? And many times we find that. And I know Brother Neville has found that many times. And leaders and spiritual people realize that.
It's been some time in my life that... Frankly, since I was just a boy, I have never felt the very leading that I should live in--in Jeffersonville. It's always been a fly in the ointment, for me to try to live here. The first place, the climate miserably disagrees with me. Another thing, there seems to be a depressing of the spirit.
