<TITLE>07. Par 33-38</TITLE>L-33 Mine, I was born to see visions. Now, on the platform, here comes--someone comes up before me. Now, it takes their faith to do it. It's their own faith. Now, it's just like a gear, getting into a gear, changing... You're pulling up a hill in a car and then it changes gear. See? I can't change that gear. He does it.
And then, maybe hours before I come to the meeting I--I'm in prayer and to myself. And then I see that Light come near me, and nobody speaks to me, and I just go on in. It'd be better if I just entered the building, don't speak or nothing, go right ahead in the prayer line; it would be better. But instead of doing that, I--I speak awhile. Them kind of meetings couldn't last very long, 'cause it takes the life right out of you.

L-34 But now, here stands a person. We're standing here together, now. We want to look a past the curtain of time. Now, I jump real hard, run up like this and grab a hold, and pull up, come back down.
"What'd you see, Brother Branham?"
"An elephant."
"Oh, you did? What else did you see?"
"That's all I had time to see."
"Whew." It's strong. See? Just like wore me out. What was it? That's the person standing before me. See, it's--it's them taking something out of you. You see?
"What did you see?"
"You have tumor." It left me. See? It's a strain. I got tired.
"What else did you see, Brother Branham?" I have to go again. All right. Up you go again, and pull and strain, you know. And first thing you know, come back down: "You're Miss So-and-so, from Third..." See? There you are. You're doing that yourself. That's you, not using me, but using a gift that God sent for you. See, see? But the physical part hurts.

L-35 Now, what if the ringmaster comes by, the boss of the whole thing? Says, "What are you looking at, Brother Branham? Yeah, I know you. I want to show you something." Just pick me up, hand me up in his hand, or something like this, and say, "You see this tent? These people does this, and goes down here, and comes out down here, and over here, and down there." I'm just setting there looking. See? It's all right. Then when he let--sets me down, I'm not tired. See? That's God using His own gift. You see what I mean? That's the way it does.

L-36 Now, the people here--some of these people that's with me... Maybe some of you are strange to me. The vision that comes out there, when just sovereignly He sends it, there's no complaint about it, sometimes under the anointing, without breath in your body, or respiration for fifty or sixty minutes. See? And He tells what will be just exactly to the point: where it will be, how it'll happen and everything, the whole panoramic of the whole thing. And God's my Judge, to Whose Bible I stand here, has never failed one time of one iota, of the thousands of times. And... But there's no complaint about that.

L-37 But in a meeting when a little individual will come, like... That's them using that same gift. See? It's the person using it. Now, you catch it? Jesus felt no strain when He raised Lazarus from the grave, because the Father had told Him. See? But now, when it comes to a woman using that gift, virtue had gone from Him. You get what I mean? That's what does it.
And, friends, it's you people that does that. See? It isn't me; it's you that's a-doing it--your faith.

L-38 Now, there's just one thing that I'd like to say now, again, 'cause they'll probably be getting us out of here. But... Now watch what it says. Don't leave too quick. See? I guess Brother Borders may explain that to you in--in the opening meeting. See? Don't leave too quick. When it says, "Here is a person that's... It's before here... has a tumor, or cancer, or..." Here, let me give you a little illustration; say, we'll take Brother Williams here, and I think it'll give... Do we have that much time? So we'll--we'll... It just won't take a...
