<TITLE>24. Par 249-258</TITLE>L-249   Now be real reverent. I'm waiting for a moment, for that Anointing. That's what I'm stalling for, see. Because, It might not even come at all. If It doesn't, then we'll bow our heads and dismiss the audience, and come back tomorrow night and ask Him if He'll... He has never failed me yet. Now, before hundreds of thousands, at a time, He has never failed now. And He won't this time. I know He won't. I know He won't. See, I just know He won't.

L-250 So, see, I've got it on my mind that it's past closing time. You can't have... you can't be flustrated, and the Holy Spirit work through you; you've got to settle down. Now if there is any extra charge on this night, I'll pay for it, see. That's it. Satan, you can't bluff us like that.

L-251   I take charge and command over every spirit in here, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Now just...
I will speak to the little lady. Now if the Holy Spirit, sister, just...

L-252 Jesus talked to this lady just a moment to catch her spirit, see, to see what was wrong. I believe that's what He done. The Father sent Him up there, and had need to go by Samaria. But when He got up there, that's all He knowed, He was up there. Here comes the woman, He knowed that must be the time.

L-253   Now the Father sent me up here. Here I am, in New York; and here you are, the first person on the platform tonight. I don't know, but He will reveal it to me. If He will, will it make you believe Him with all your heart? You will accept? You'll know whether it's true or not, see. Not be knowing you, and being a stranger to you; but your trouble, what you... You got several troubles. But your main trouble that you're wanting prayer for, it's in your throat. You have a throat trouble. Is that right? Raise up your hand. Do you believe it? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Just a moment. Now, that would be all right.

L-254 You say, "You might have guessed that, Brother Branham." No, I never. I always catch that from the audience, "He guessed that."

L-255   Now just a moment, let's talk to her alone. You are conscious that there is something going on, see.

L-256 Now at the audience. How many seen that picture of the Angel of the Lord, that Light? It's hanging in Washington, D.C. See, That's hanging right by her now. See? Can't you see That? Look like... Course, the Anointing is here now. I can see It, see. It's right over her.

L-257 Yes, here It is. She's got, yes, her trouble is in her throat. She has been worried. And, well, she's got a--a tumor in her throat. That's exactly right. Not only that, but you have a thyroid trouble that's bothering you. Is that right? See? All right. Do you believe now that that's Jesus Christ standing here that knows you and all about it? Do you accept Him as your healer? [The sister says, "I do."--Ed.] Go and be well, in the Name of the Lord.
The line, see, just see. He knows all things.

L-258   How do you do, young lady? Now you're just a little bit shocked, you see, because just as soon as it come up, the lady come up, that Light come right over her. See? And she is conscious. Now look. I don't know the woman. I--I don't know nothing about her. But she is standing there, just a young woman. And now if the Holy Spirit can reveal to me what your desire is from God! You are a Christian, see. And so if--if you wasn't, now, He would tell me that, see. But you are a Christian, I mean a real Christian. And if He would, if He would reveal to me what your desires are from Him, would you believe me to be His prophet, or servant? I ought to say that, see, the time will come, see. You would believe? [The sister says, "Amen."--Ed.] You know that I'm a stranger to you.
