    There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. (1 Corinthians 10:13)

    53 The other night, was so amazed. A little woman come up to the platform. That big three-hundred-thousand-dollar place there, and she had a little make-up stuff on her face. She stood there and she started trembling. I said, “You’re a Lutheran,” by the Holy Spirit.

    She said, “Yes, sir.”

    54 And I said, “You’re here to be prayed for. And the reason you’re walking the way you are, both knees had been broke.” I said, “That was caused by a car accident, and a car that you were driving in, four years ago.”

    She said, “That’s true.”

    55 I said, “Your doctor is a little, short fellow, bald-headed and wears glasses.”

    Said, “That’s right.”

    56 And I said, “He is doctoring because of in the—the knees, the bone has become tubercular, and even the flesh is a rottening around the bone.”

    She said, “That is right.”

    And she says, “Is there a hope for me?”

    57 I said, “That depends on your approach to the Lord Jesus.” I said…

    She said, “Can you help me?”

    58 I said, “No, ma’am. No one can help you now. But you have to help yourself to God’s provided blessings for you.”

    And she said, “I now believe with all my heart.”

    59 I said, “The Lord healed you, sister. It’s THUS SAITH THE LORD. You’re healed.”

    60 She said, “Mr. Branham, I haven’t been able to kneel,” she said, “for four years.” While weeping, standing there, rubbing her hands. And a great audience of people weeping, watching her; Lutherans, Presbyterians. And I said, “Why don’t you go down to the altar and kneel down?”

    61 She said, “Let me kneel right here, right where I’m healed.” She had never moved from her steps, but she knew she was healed. Something took place. See? She knew it. There wasn’t any guessing about it.

    I said, “Kneel down.”

    62 And for the first time in four years, with both knees broke and all calloused over, made over, the bones together; that woman, like a young woman, knelt on her knees with the tears streaming from her cheeks, raised up her hands to God. Well, just raised right up from there, just as easy, like a little girl, and tipped off the platform. What was it? God had to make a way for that.

    63 Now, He sent doctors, that’s right. And doctors are fine, and they had done all they could do. But God had made a way. That’s it. See? After the doctor had failed, in his way, God’s way is so much higher than our way. What a wonderful thing!

    Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. (Ezekiel 28:14-17)

    78 It was Satan’s ambition to be worshiped like God. He took two-thirds, two-thirds of the stars of Heaven. Ascended hisself above those stars, and preached to them, and deceived two-thirds of them. You see it? All right. Notice, that’s his ambition.

    And now he is ready, with his careful selected, educated bride by his own knowledge, see, all painted up in his deceit, of big buildings and big denominations, and paints of knowledge and theology, and smart and intellectual, and educated, to deceive the whole world, and become a “god.” That’s what he’s done. All heading up into the person of the antichrist, which is already crowned “the vicar of God,” by his worldly-loving, scientific bride, all dressed up in pomp of intellectual, religious education. She is made religious like him, and by his own interpretation of the Word of God as he did Eve, and as his son Cain did.

    Now you said, “Satan’s son?”

    79 Show me one place in the Bible that Cain was ever called Adam’s son. The Bible said he was “the son of that evil one,” serpent’s seed. No, the cover has been took off now, brother. The pyramid has been opened, as the revelation showed.

    80 Notice what he will do, his thoughts. He thought God dwelled in worldly beauty. He did that in Heaven. Sin never begin in the garden of Eden; it begin in Heaven, when Lucifer, the son of the morning, exalted himself in beauty, and wanted a more beautiful kingdom than that of Michael. And he thought that God dwelt in beauty.

    81 And notice Cain. He didn’t want no blood sacrifice. He come down and offered the fruit, or—or the fields of beauty upon his altar. Very religious, done everything, that, just exactly like Abel done; offered a sacrifice, fell down before God in worship, obedient in every way, but without the revelation of the Word.

    And the Word was, from the beginning, God’s plan. But God revealed, by revelation, the very thing that He vindicated and punctuated that that was right. Not religion, not an altar, not belonging to church, not making a sacrifice, not being sincere; but by the revelation of the Word of God. God revealing to him what that it…

    For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things? If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ. Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel. (1 Corinthians 9:9-14)

    161. Would it be wrong to use tithes on church building funds?

    176 Well now, here—here’s a touchy little thing for the church now. No, correctly tithes is to go to the minister. That’s right! In the Bible they had a box they’d set at the door in the Old Testament when the—building. This box was a fund where the people put in there for the repairing…You’ve read it many times in the Old Testament. They kept up the buildings and things like that…All the repairs on the building was taken care out of that fund. But a tenth of that went—a tenth of the tithings—all the tithings went to their priests, their pastors. Yes, tithings are to go for nothing else.

    177 I know people take their tithes and give them to a widow woman. That’s wrong. If you’ve got anything to give the widow woman, give her, but don’t give her God’s money. That’s not yours in the first place. That’s God’s!

    178 If you sent me downtown to get a loaf of bread, and you give me twenty-five cents to get the loaf of bread, and I met somebody on the street wanted it…something else, and I’d give him the twenty-five cents, see, I give them your money. If they asked me for something, let them get it over here in this pocket and give them my money; but this is your money. And a tenth of it is the Lord’s. And Levi, the priesthood, lived by the tenth.

    179 The tenth is to be a tithing that’s to be brought into the storehouse with a promise of God to bless it. And a proof, He said, “If you don’t believe it, come and prove Me and see if I won’t do it.” See? That’s right!

    180 The tithings goes into the church for the pastor and so forth like that to live on. And then the—the—the building funds and things like that is a separate fund altogether. Now, that—that is Scriptural.

    And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valour. And Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if the Lord be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt? but now the Lord hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites. (Judges 6:12-13)

    60 And Gideon asked that question. What a Scriptural man that was! That’s the kind of man that God comes to, somebody who knows. Gideon said, “If God is with us, if You are the Messenger, then where is the miracles that the prophet told us about?” He knowed, everywhere God went, His miracles followed Him. He knowed that wherever God would be, miracles would be there.

    61 And how can you expect God, today, to work in amongst people who doesn’t even believe in miracles? How can it be?

    62 And He called him “the mighty man of valour.” Said, “Now, by this, you’re going to deliver Israel.”

    63 Now, that looked like a man sitting there, and it was a Man. And he looked at Him, and he said, “Nay, my Lord, if God is with us, then why is all this trouble upon us? And where is the miracles that we are told about? Where is the things that God used to do?”

    64 Now there is a good way to trust whether the messenger is right, or not. If he has a form of godliness, he will deny that Power to do those miracles. If he is a messenger from God, he’ll not only speak of it, but he’ll have it; to produce it, and to show that the God that he talks about is with him and in him.

    65 He said, “If God was with us, where is all of His mighty miracles? Cause, we understand…” Listen how Scriptural, Gideon was. In otherwise, he said, “If…We understand that God is a great God of mighty workings. He’s a great God of miracles. And if He is for us, and if He is with us, and He is the same yesterday, today and forever, where can I see His miracles? Where can I see this God in action? Where is He at, if He is for us?”

    66 The mighty man of valour could refer back to the old Word, and know It’s right, because he knowed this, that, God is a supernatural Being. And wherever a supernatural Being is, He’ll do supernatural signs, because the supernatural is in Him. You just can’t get out of it.

    67 How can you stand in the face of wind, without having wind blowing? How can you get in water, without being wet? Water is wet. That’s the chemical of it. It’s wet! And when you get in water, you’re going to get wet. Right!

    68 And when you get in the Presence of God, the supernatural, there is going to be supernatural signs and supernatural workings of a supernatural God.

    Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying, Praise ye the Lord for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves. (Judges 5:1-2)

    30 If it be so pleasing to God, I wish to take a text there, upon, I believe the…about the 14th verse, where It said, If God Be With Us, Then Where Is All The Miracles?

    Now, we are all acquainted with the Judges, of Israel.

    31 And how that they had done the Israelites; the Philistines, the Midianites, the Amorites, and all the different ones had come in like locusts and just eat up what they had, and take it out, and go on. But, did you notice, they could not do that until Israel first fell away from God.

    32 The devil can’t set a foot on you, to hurt you, until first you get away from God. You must first remember that. Check when anything happens, see if you are in the Faith, or not, see that if you’re right up to place with God; then, remember, the devil can do you no harm, you’re in Christ.

    33 And this place here, we had just left the…A few years before this, had been the prophetess, Deborah; and Barak. And how that she had prophesied and told them what to do, and it was just exactly right; Barak, the great warrior; and how that they made a song, of the triumph over the enemy. But as soon as they got out of the twist, right straight back into the rut they went again.

    34 If that isn’t the picture of the church today! Just as soon as it gets out of one twist, right into another one it goes. But time had come for action. And that’s the same now, the time has come for action. The time had come, when playing church had come to a halt, with God. There’s no more playing church. We must get down to business. And I trust that that same God will place this upon the heart of the people tonight, that it’s time for a halt of playing church, playing religious, playing righteous, and now it’s time for action.

    35 As I was speaking this morning upon the subject of what the new Birth was, and how we come to it, surely that still sinks in your heart. Now the time has come to act upon what you know to be the Truth. You cannot act with faith until first you know what you’re doing. You’ve got to first know what you are doing, before you can have faith to do it.

    36 Someone said to me one time, a noted doctor, was talking about a miracle that had happened among…a sick person. And he said to me, “Preacher, don’t you believe, if you told them people to go out and touch a tree or a post, the same thing would take place?”

    37 I said, “No, sir.” I said, “Because you cannot have faith, in touching a tree or a post.”

    38 Faith is not that loose. It’s got to be based upon some noted fact. You’ve got to know something about what you are having faith in, before you can have faith in it. So we first must know how and what, what God’s desire is, what God’s plan is, and how to approach God by that plan. And then we can walk up boldly to the Throne of Grace, and plead what the plan is promised us.

    39 Now, they had been playing church. Just soon as they got out of one twist…God delivered them. Then, instead of really going on and serving God, seeing His mighty hand, they twisted right back out into the things of the world again. And so the time had come, when, God called a halt. And it must be that way.

    But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away. And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him. (1 Corinthians 7:12-13)

    116 Now, stay in love with her and let her see Jesus in you. You do that. See? You just go on. Some…I give a little illustration this morning about a person that…One time this little woman had—had received the Holy Ghost. She was a very sweet little person. They…She said…Well, she’d had a hard life, and her husband was an alcoholic. And so, she just kept on; she bore with him. He says, “You want to go to church, Honey, take off!” But now, he went down to the saloon, down at the old Brown Derby, down here. Going on. So they hung out down there all the time, used to be Bonifers. Many of you old-timers here remember when Bonifer had there on the corner of…It’s called Brown Derby now, I believe it is.

    117 So, hanging around down there, and the first thing you know, one night come up a question about church and about Christians. One of the old drunks setting there said, “There ain’t no such a thing as Christians anymore. And there is no such a thing. All this bunch of hypocrites,” said, “you see them out here smoking, drinking, doing the same thing that we do, and,” said, “call themselves Christians. There is no such.”

    118 This one drunk raised up and said, “Just a minute! There’s one that I know about.”

    Said, “Who is it?”

    Said, “It’s my wife.” See? She’d become salty. He was catching it all the time.

    He said, “I bet if she was put to a squeeze…”

    He said, “No, she’s still a Christian; I’ll prove it to you.” Said, “I tell you what let’s do; let’s go up home, and I’ll show you whether she’s a Christian or not.” Said, “Let’s go up home, and now, let’s really be drunk. We’re going to act like we’re really drunk.” Knocked at the door, come in staggering over everything and—and… “Why don’t you set around this way,” and everything. And she set them all a chair and (his guests, you know)—and tried to make them just as welcome as could be. Said, “I want you to fix us some supper.” And so they…She went out and fixed some. Said, “We want ham and eggs.” He knowed they had it, so they fixed the ham and eggs. When he got there at the table, he looked at them like that, picked up his plate, and slammed the stuff on the floor, said, “You know, I don’t like my eggs like that. Come on boys let’s get out of here anyhow,” like that—like that.

    119 They went out and set down like that, you know. And she come out; she said, “Dear, I’m—I’m sorry I didn’t get them fixed; I’ll fix some more for you.”

    120 “Oh, nonsense, you knowed I didn’t want them that way in the first place,” just carrying on like that. They went out there, and set down, and act like they was drunk. They heard her in there kind of snubbing to herself, singing real low voice:

    Must Jesus bear the cross alone,

    And all the world go free?

    There’s a cross for every one,

    And there’s a cross for me.

    This consecrated cross I’ll bear,

    Till death shall set me free.

    One drunk looked at the other one, said, “She’s a Christian; she’s got it!” And that little woman led her husband, plus these others to Christ that night. See? Why? See? Just be real sweet. Just remember, He knows all about it.

    And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, which slew of the Philistines six hundred men with an ox goad: and he also delivered Israel. (Judges 3:31)

    59 I see old Shamgar standing out there. He had put in his… all these… He said… Not very much wrote about him in the Bible but what was wrote is enough. He was standing out there. Had his barns all fixed up and everything was just going fine. And he was standing there looking and thought, “Well, now maybe every year them Philistines has come. Maybe they won’t come this year. And I see my family is all starving, and they look so poor and thin. But now…”

    And while he was standing there, he heard a noise. He raised open the window and looked coming down the road. Here come six hundred armed Philistines. There goes his crops. Spear and armor. The big old heavyish feet there with the armor on. “Tromp, tromp, tromp,” trained man, warriors from birth, spears in their hands, swords hanging on their sides. Six hundred, “Coming up, Shamgar. You had a nice crop this year. We’re glad you worked for us.” Here they come up like that. That’s the way the devil does: take away everything you got if he can. That’s him.

    60 Shamgar looked at him and thought, “Oh, here it goes again.” He stood there and he thought, “Well…” Looked down at his poor little old wife, her little sunk-in face, maybe, and his little children. Their little sleeves were ragged. Their clothes were gone. His poor wife was starved to death. “What will the winter be this time.” There it is.

    “Now, all the… year after year they’ve come. And here they are coming again. I’m just… We just about starved last year. Now, they’ll take what I got now. What will I do? Just what gleanings I can get out of the field.” He stood there; he thought, “Here. Here they come, closer and closer.” Tromp, tromp, tromp, these Philistines.

    61 After a while, they was… You don’t believe in getting angry, then let the righteous indignation rise. He begin to get—feel it coming up on him. He said, “Here, I’m a Jew. I’m circumcised. I’ve got a right, for this land belongs to us.” And I tell you, he wasn’t a warrior; he couldn’t wait till he learned how to fight. He was a farmer, he wasn’t a fighter. But he knowed that he had—the promise of God was with him. And he was circumcised.

    And if every man here tonight would realize that the things that you got, divine health and everything else, God gave it to you at Calvary. Every borned-again man is circumcised by the Holy Ghost. You have a right for every redemptive blessing. Let the devil rob you out of none of it.

    Shamgar didn’t have no sword. He didn’t know nothing about it if he had one. He didn’t have a shield. But he—if he’d a shield, he wouldn’t know how to use it. But he reached up and got a ox goad. That’s an old stick that’s got a brass lump on the end of it, they beat the ox through the corral with it. And he jumped out of that window out there in the middle of that road against six hundred armed Philistines, and killed every one of them. Hallelujah!

    Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. (1 Corinthians 5:7-8)

    73 And then when he did that, that Voice said, “Now you must be more sincere than what you are, to do this.” Then it left me, and I was standing in the room.

    74 A few moments, I heard a clock go off, and my wife had got… getting up. The children, you know how it is, I guess, at your house, one, “What am I going to wear today, mama? Where, where are my books? And what did I do?” You know. You, just like any home, you can’t hear yourself think, hardly, for all of them trying to get ready at once.

    75 And—and so I slipped off into the den room, and I got down on my knees, and I said, “Lord Jesus, I don’t know these things. And what must I do? And the children will be calling me to take them to school in a few moments. What must I do?” And I looked around, and my Bible was laying there, and I said, “Lord, if You will forgive me…” I do not believe in just opening up the Scripture, and taking something out of the Bible and saying that, but, there is times that when God can comfort you by such a thing. And I said, “Lord, in this case of emergency right now, before Your Spirit leaves me. And I—I don’t know what to do. The kids will be an hour yet, before they’ll be gone. Would You just show me? If that was something You’re trying to get to me, Heavenly Father, then let me know.”

    76 And I took this Bible and just pulled it open like that, and my thumb was laying at First Corinthians, the 5th chapter, the 8th verse, when something reads something like this. “When you come…” I was planning on taking a fast, to the Lord. I told Him I would go out and fast. Said, “When you come to this feast…” Which, a fast in the body is a feast with the Lord. We know that. “So when you come to this feast, don’t come with the old leaven or the leaven of malice, and so forth; but come with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth,” just exactly what He had told me in the vision. “Come…” God is my solemn Judge. “Come with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth,” that is the Word. Then I seen what He meant. As He…

    Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. (1 Corinthians 4:1-2)

    23 And they had the Holy Ghost, friends. The Angel… We’re… it’s not a worship of Angels. It’s God sending His ministering Spirit in the Church to minister to the people. There’s no flesh can glory before God. If anybody could’ve gloried, it would’ve been Jesus. But He said, “It’s not Me that doeth the works; it’s My Father that dwelleth in Me; He doeth the works.” Is that right?

    They said, “We believe God.”

    He said, “If you believe God, believe also in Me.”

    Now, when the Angel came to your servant here, he said, “If you’ll get the people to believe you.” Now, there’s the hard thing. “If you’ll get the people to believe you…” How many believes God? All of you, don’t you? You believe Christ, you believe the Holy Ghost.

    24 Now, that’s not the question tonight. I’m glad you do that. That makes you a Christian. But that is not what I’m trying to get to you—you now. I get to that when make my altar call. You must believe Them first. If you’re not in connection with Them, you’ll never know this.

    But as much as you believe in Them, you still got to believe that I’m telling you the truth, and what I say is the truth.

    Jesus was the… He was… His hands was bound and tied to any miracle, or anything, any kind of a miracle, because the people did not believe Him.

    And the very people that believed God killed Him. Is that right? No matter how much they believed in God… They were very religious, orthodox. Very religious. And they believed God. But to believe Him, oh, no. Uh-uh. See? That was too much. Ma… A Man? They couldn’t believe no Man. They could believe God.

    25 And tonight, so many people can believe God. Sure. You believe Christ, you believe the Holy Ghost, and so forth. But when a man comes to you and tells something, that’s hard to believe. “I don’t know whether I can believe you or not, friend.” That’s where it’s at. See there?

    That’s the reason God can’t… That’s the reason your pastor sometimes, when your pastor comes to you. The reason he can’t help you, you’ve got to have faith in your pastor. You’ve got to believe that he’s a man of God, sent of God to do these things for Him.

  • The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 230

    Now therefore fear the Lord, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the Lord. And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. (Joshua 24:14-15)

    82 And God gives you your choice. “Choose you this day who you shall serve.” In the garden of Eden there was a tree of—of knowledge, and a Tree of Life. Man was given the privilege to choose either one he desired. And so is it today. You’re given your privilege, as free moral agents, to choose whatever you want to choose.

    83 My advice to you, is, don’t look at the modern things around you, and the popularity and the glamour that you could be. But choose, rather, by faith, Him that give the promise that some day He will come and will righten all wrongs, and will give you Eternal Life, and raise you up. No matter if you take the despised way with the Lord’s few, make that choice. If there is troubles in the hand, if there is troubles in the land, if there’s troubles in the church, if there’s troubles in the home, no matter where it is, make your choice, “By faith, I’ll serve God. I’ll humble my heart in His Presence. I’ll take the way with God’s children. I see them despised and rejected, and drove out and made fun of, but I’ll still take my post of duty. I’ll stay right by. And when they cry, I’ll cry with them. And when there is sorrow, I shall sorrow with them. The way they live, I’ll live.”

    84 Like Naomi said…Or, Ruth said to Naomi, “Your ways be my ways. My ways be your ways. Where you live, I’ll live. Where you go, I’ll go. The God that you serve will be my God.” Take that choice, though it pulls the very skin off of your conscience, of thinking that you’re somebody. Skin yourself down and take your way with the Lord’s despised few, and stay loyal on the field of service and at the post of duty.

    85 Lot looked around. He said, “I got a choice.” And he looked towards Sodom. He saw the good grassy fields were better than what Abraham saw, and where Abraham was. He saw the opportunities to graze his cattle, to have fatter and better cattle.

    86 I hope I’m not hurting anyone’s feeling. But that’s been the stand of too many preachers, to compromise with the Gospel, thinking that they get more money out of it. [Brother Branham claps his hands three times—Ed.] A meal ticket! I’d rather live in the barren land, eat, drink from a branch, and eat soda crackers, than to compromise upon the conviction of my faith in the Word of the living God. I’ll take my way.
