<TITLE>07. Par 28-31</TITLE>L-28 And so we see as witnesses of Hebrews 11, and many places in the Bible, that the heroes of faith are those who stayed with God's promise. Just stay right there no matter what anyone else says, and God will grant it to you in His own good time.
Now, Moses went down into Egypt, or was in Egypt, rather. He was born down there. A proper child, his parents seen he was--seen that he was, and they wasn't afraid of the king's commandment. And then when Moses, taught by his mother... What a good teacher (his own mother), and could tell him them stories... "Moses, you are my son. But you were born for a purpose. And God will use you someday to deliver Israel. "

L-29 And after the death of--of his precious mother, then I suppose Moses become a great ruler, or next to Pharaoh there, was heir to the throne. Then one day he felt for his brethren. And a feeling sometimes for something... Yet, even if we feel, we've got to act in God's way to rightly get the job done. Certainly.
Now, I believe that God has mercy upon all the hungry and suffering, and--and we have all kinds of--of organizations to feed the hungry and things. I believe that's a wonderful thing. But yet the real job is the Gospel. That's the real job, is the Gospel, taking the Gospel.

L-30 Now, we find out that after he found himself a failure in his own works ('cause he was a smart man, a military man), and he was... He had found a failure. Then he--he run from the job, went out into the wilderness and was out there for forty years. And he'd had a wife and so forth, and his children, or his child, rather, Gershom.
Now, the strange thing is, with a call of God on his life I'd imagine Moses was never able to get away from that: never able. And there may be people here tonight listening right to us, that down through your life somewhere you've felt there was a call in your life, and you've just never heeded to it. You'll be miserable as long as you live, till you heed to that life.

L-31 And there's no doubt there's people here tonight that's been seeking for the Holy Ghost for years. And you just say, "Well, I--I don't know. I should receive it. I..." Well, you'll never, never be satisfied until you do (See?), because you were cut out for that. And now, you must make that the first thing in your life. Whether you eat again, or whether you drink again, or whether you sleep again, or whatever you do, you must find That. That's right. That must be the first thing. That's it.
Just stay right with God's promise. He promised it to you, so you just stay right with it (See?), and God will bring it to pass. Now. And He might do it at a unexpected time. You say, "Well, Brother Branham, I've been working hard today, and I'm a little tired. And I haven't felt good for three or four days." That might be just the time. See? You never know when it's going to happen.
How many times could I stop and for days tell the experience, when I go to the woods to seek the Lord that the--the briars scratch me, and the birds annoy me, and the mosquitoes bite me. That's just when God's fixing to do something right then. Just when--just when something seems all unexpected, then God takes place, takes hold.
