<TITLE>23. Par 243-250</TITLE>L-243   Now I want you to pray. Just pray real sincerely, say, "Lord, help me." And as you pray, pray the prayer of faith, pray that God will give to you your request. And say, "Lord, I know that man doesn't know me, but if You will just prove to me that You're in the boat, that You're here in this building tonight. Then, I know that Brother Branham doesn't know me, knows nothing about me. But he told me, just tonight, that You're the same, You're the same Messiah, and promised that if he'd believe You, that You'd do the same works through him that--that You did through the Messiah, because His Spirit would be with us. Then if I know, can be proved that You're here, then that's all that I have to know. I'll believe it, with all my heart." Will you do that? And if He will move on the scene and do something like He did then, then you'll know it's the works that He did.

L-244 Look what He did when He seen Peter, Nathanael, the woman at the well, blind Bartimaeus, those who touched Him, the woman with the blood issue. See? That's how they knowed He was the Word, because He could discern their thoughts. He promised, at the last sign, before the burning of the earth, that would return again, the last sign to the Church. Here we are. There's the message to the church denominational out there. Here is the Message to the Church, the pentecostal, the Elect, the pulled-out. Now believe.

L-245   Now, Heavenly Father, they're in Your hands. I'm in Your hands. I commit myself to You, commit them to You, that the works of God might be known, that this little cut-up message tonight might be made manifest to these people here in Tucson, way down here in the middle of this desert. Father, God, in this lovely little church, with Your lovely little pastor here, Lord, that this church will always live on the results of the Word of God, that they might know that Jesus is still in the boat. That, because the revival is not going on, that doesn't mean He is gone. He's right with us, ready to be called at any time, not hard to arouse, but will come to our rescue.

L-246 I'm asking You, Lord, that the people might know that You are God, and You are the same yesterday, today, and forever. I commit myself to You, and the church, that, between us, between their faith and the gift that You give me, that their faith might operate this gift of God, that would call through this audience, that, these unknown people, and do as You did when the woman touched Your garment.

L-247   You are our High Priest, Lord. May these people touch Your garment, and You send Your message back to them, as You did through Jesus Christ, Your Son. As we, the unprofitable servants of His, been sanctified by His precious Blood, might let the works of God be known to a dying world in the last days. And we'll praise You for it, Father.

L-248 Then when we go home tonight, along the road, we'll say like those who came from Emmaus, after He had been dead, raised, and He did something like He did before He was crucified. They knew it was Him. No other man could do it. And do that again tonight, Lord. Do as You promised. It's Your promise. "The works that I do shall he also. I'll be with him, even in him, to the end, of the world." It'll confirm it, Lord. And we'll say our hearts burn within us. We ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-249   Now, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, I ask you to set quiet, reverent, believe.

L-250 Now, looking upon the audience, with this Word of God before me, I say that the only person that I really recognize is this brother over here. And now I do see my wife in the back, and back there. But let's start here in front.
