Dear Believer,

How wonderful it is to say, I AM A BELIEVER. Not in a creed; the Word! Not in a denomination; the Word! Not what somebody else says; but what the Word says!

We don’t question anything, we simply believe It. Regardless of what It sounds like or what anybody else has got to say about It, we are a genuine believer. We have a spiritual revelation of the Word.

We see the hour we are living in. We see the Message of the hour. We see the messenger of the hour. We see God revealing Himself in His Word. We see there is nothing else but This Message, This messenger, This Word.

A real believer don’t hear nothing but the Word. That’s all. He watches the Word. He ain’t looking for no loopholes. He ain’t looking for no gimmicks. He believes God, and that settles it, and he just keeps going on. See? There is the believer.

We can’t hear nothing else but the Word; the Word that comes only to the prophet. No loopholes, not someone’s interpretation, the Pure Word that was spoken and placed on the tapes for the Bride.

The Spirit has quickened that Word in us and has become alive. By faith, we see It and believe It. There will come a sound from Heaven that’ll take such a baptism of the Holy Spirit into the Bride, that it will take us from the earth, in a Rapturing Grace. God promised it.

We are put to the test all the time, every day. Satan tries to tell us our testing and trials is God punishing us. But PRAISE BE TO GOD, it isn’t, it’s Satan doing it and God permitting it.

God is tempering us, and molding us to see what we will do. The trial comes to shake us, to put us to the very bottom, to see where we’ll stand. But we overcome each battle, for we are living examples; the Word of God is living in us and through us.

How important are we in His eyes?

Nobody can take your place, no matter how little. You say, “I’m just a housewife.” Nobody can take your place. God, in His great economy, has so set so, the Body of Christ, in order, till there is no one can take your place.

How wonderful is that? Each one of us have a place. Each one of us was here when God spoke the world into existence. He put our body here right then. God placed us on earth at this time to fulfill His Word and give us Everlasting Life.

Everyone has to make a decision. Where do you stand on this Word, this Message, this messenger? How important is it to hear the Word that is spoken on the tapes?

In all different parts of the world, these tapes circulate through, ministries of the tapes.

It is a tape ministry sent from God to His Bride around the world. It tells you exactly where you are, who you are, and whether you are a believer in the Word.

You’re in one of these classes. In your present state right now, the present state of mind, that, you here in this visible audience, and you that will be in the invisible audience of this tape, your present state of mind after listening to this tape, proves to you what class you’re in.

After listening to this tape, it proves what class of people you belong in. Some believe you need more than just the pure Word that was spoken on the tapes. Some believe the days of the one-man Message are over; you must listen to your pastor or you’re lost.

The greatest division in the Message today is the importance placed on hearing the tapes. Some teach it is wrong to play tapes in church; only the pastor must minister. Some say there is a balance, but never play the tapes in church, or if they do it is very seldom.

With so many ideas, so many thoughts, so many interpretations of the Word, who is right? Who should you believe? That is the question each of us has to ask ourselves.

The prophet told us to check it with THE WORD, not what anyone says. How do you do that? There is only ONE WAY to do that, PRESS PLAY.

There has to be a correct answer, a correct way. Each person must decide for themselves. This Sunday will determine the future for all who hear this Message.

Something you should ask yourself: Who is the only person with Thus Saith the Lord? Who did the Pillar of Fire vindicate? Who will introduce us to Jesus? Who spoke the Word of infallibility? Whose words spoken on earth were so important, they were echoed in heaven?

If you’d like to have the correct answers, I’d like to invite you to come listen this Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, to the Message: 63-1124E — Three Kinds Of Believers.

Bro. Joseph Branham

Dear Tape Lovers,

We love this Message with all our heart. It is the sweetness of the sugarcane of God. It’s God’s Word that has been so thoroughly vindicated, and proven, over and over. This Message is the answer to God’s Word. It is the same anointed Christ, the anointed Word for our day.

We got the vindicated Word of God here, vindicating, proving by the Spirit, that He’s received us and give us the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. We are baptized into the Name of Jesus Christ. The same Gospel, the same signs, the same wonders, the same ministry, even the same Pillar of Fire visible before us, showing the signs and wonders. There is not an excuse, nowhere.

It is a uniting time with God and His Bride. The Bride of Christ has been called. We are sealed in the Kingdom of God. The mechanics are here just waiting for the Dynamics that’ll take us off this earth into Glory, in the Rapture.

That Dynamics is a refilling of the Holy Spirit. The Headstone will come down and will unite with the Body. Then, when the Head and Body unite together, the full power of the Holy Ghost will raise US up and the dead in Christ will rise in the beauty of His holiness, and take a flight to the skies.

That hour is quickly approaching. Time has come to an end. Final decisions have to be made. What will you do with the anointed Word of our day? What is your stand on the Message of the hour?

Will you simply say: “I believe the Message. I believe God sent a prophet.”

Don’t just come this far, say, “I believe the Message.” You obey the messenger.

If you must OBEY the messenger: NOTICE, he said obey the messenger. Then how important is it to believe and hear every Word that messenger said?

You say, “Well, I believe every Word said, Brother Branham.” That’s good, but that’s just—that’s just being able to read.

Why can’t the people be satisfied with the tapes? Everybody can’t be a prophet. There is just one prophet, and the Word come to that prophet.

The church done fine until they began to question It; or wanted different voices to tell them, and interpret to them, what that prophet said. They wanted a modern Korah and Dathan.

See, it started with just a little misconstruing of the Word, and, the same thing, it’s ending the same way.

If it started with, and will end with, just a little misconstruing of the Word, surely you recognize how you MUST stay with the tapes. Surely you see why God made sure this Message was recorded and stored up for the Bride.

I’m not saying these things to down your pastors, or to say don’t listen to your pastor, NO, but to show you the importance of pressing play and hearing this Message on tape.

How the Church ought to be checking it again, and again, and again, and again! We’re waiting for His Coming. We’re waking, we’re waiting for the takeoff. We better check it with the Word, not what somebody said. Be sure you know, yourself, as a personal experience with Christ. Check it again, and again, and again.

What did HE SAY? We must check it with the Word again, and again, and again. How do you check It with the Word? What is the Word for today? The same as it has been since the beginning, the Bible.

Who does God say is the interpreter of His Word? Me? Your pastor? NO, God’s vindicated prophet for the hour is the only interpreter of the Word. So, you must check every Word anyone says again, and again, and again with THE TAPES!

If that statement is true, and you believe that the single most important thing any person, or any pastor can do, is PRESS PLAY, then why is that so hard for anyone who claims to believe the Message to say that? Because they simply don’t believe It.

What is YOUR final decision? For me and my house, we will stay with this Message and God’s messenger, the Tapes. We believe there is nothing more important than listening to the Voice of God on the tapes.

• There is only ONE Thus Saith The Lord Voice.
• There is only ONE Voice that the Pillar of Fire vindicated.
• There is only ONE seventh angel messenger.
• There is only ONE Voice the Bride can all agree upon.
• There is only ONE Voice of God to this generation.

If you have that same Revelation, come join me and a little group of believers around the world that believe the same, Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we hear and make our final decision: What Shall I Do With Jesus Called Christ? 63-1124M.

Dear Perfect Faith Believers,

Each day our hearts beat high with great anticipation. We are waiting for the hour to arrive of His soon Coming. All fears have vanished. No more wondering, “Are we His Bride?” It is anchored in our hearts like never before, WE ARE HIS BRIDE.

We are caught up in a Heavenly atmosphere, listening to the ministry of Jesus Christ, reincarnated in His Church. This Message has been so thoroughly vindicated by the Word of God, that it couldn’t be a man, it has to be God speaking lip to ear to His Bride.

We believe it’s not a man that is speaking to us on these tapes, It’s God.

What I’m trying to say, “Don’t never lose your confidence.” Don’t let Satan tell you evil about me; ’cause, there’s much. But you keep that confidence; ’cause, if you don’t, it won’t happen. Don’t look to me, as a man; I’m a man, I’m full of mistakes. But look to what I’m saying about Him. It’s Him. He is the One.

You must have confidence and believe in what HE SAYS, OR IT WON’T HAPPEN. We don’t look to God’s prophet as a man, like many think we do. We are behind the veil of human flesh, and all we see and hear is God speaking through human lips, AND HAVE CONFIDENCE AND BELIEVE EVERY WORD.

That is the Revelation of Jesus Christ for today. To believe it is God, not a man, speaking on the tapes. If you miss that, my friend, you’ve missed the Message of the hour and you can’t be the Bride.

Satan puts his interpretation to that, and 99% of the time he quotes the Message just like he did to Eve, but she was commanded to stay with the Word; what Adam told her is what God said, not what anyone else said it meant. She was to stay with the Voice of God.

This is the greatest day the world has ever known. The life of Jesus Christ, that lived and revealed Himself in the life of His prophet, is now living in flesh in US, His Bride.

We are doing exactly what He commanded us to do: stay with the Word by staying with the Voice of God on the tapes. It is God’s tape ministry and program for today.

If you truly believe William Marrion Branham was God’s chosen seventh angel messenger, the one God chose to speak and reveal all the mysteries hidden in the Word, the Voice of God to this generation, a man that had faith like no other man, the one the Angel of the Lord told “if you get the people to believe YOU, nothing will stand before your prayers”, then this Sunday will be a red letter day like no other.

There is NOTHING that can ever take the Revelation of This Message from us, NOTHING. We could NEVER doubt It. If he said It, we believe It. We might not understand It all, but we believe It nevertheless.

Jesus Himself told us: “Greater is He that is in you than He that is in the world.” Let that sink into our hearts. His Spirit is living in us. Can we comprehend that? Right now, as you are reading this letter, the Holy Spirit, God Himself, the Pillar of Fire, is living and dwelling in us? How do we know that’s true? GOD SAID SO!!

Satan is constantly telling us we are such a failure. And he is right, we are. He reminds us, we are not where we need to be in the Word. Right again, we’re not. We do things we know better than to do. Forgive us Lord, he’s right.

But even with all of our mistakes, all our weaknesses, all of our failures, it doesn’t change the fact, WE ARE THE BRIDE. WE BELIEVE EVERY WORD!

We’re not looking to ourselves or anything we can do, we’re a mess. We just know He chose us and give us a Revelation of His Word and nothing can take that Revelation from us. It is instilled in our heart and soul.

He told us we have to have PERFECT FAITH. We do Lord, PERFECT FAITH in Your Word. We have faith in what Your prophet said to be Thus Saith The Lord. It’s not his word, but Your Word for us.

Your prophet told us whatever we have need of, if we will just believe, and have faith in Your Word, we can have whatever we have need of. WE BELIEVE.

Lord, I have a need. I’m coming before You with all the faith I have in Your Word, for It cannot fail. But today, Lord, I’m not only coming before You with my faith, but with the faith You gave to Your mighty seventh angel messenger.

O Lord God, I ask Thee to be merciful to us. And may every man and woman that’s setting present, that has any kind of a sickness or affliction; and as Moses throwed hisself in the breach, for the people, tonight I lay my heart out before You, Lord. And with all the faith that I have, that’s in You, that You have given me, I give to them.

And I say: such as I have, give I to this audience! In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, renounce your sickness, ’cause greater is He that’s in you, than the devil that’s trying to take your life. You are children of God. You are the redeemed.

It is finished. His Word cannot fail. Whatever we have need of, we can receive.

Come join us Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, to receive this great blessing and anointing from God as a portion of the Bride will be gathering from around the world listening to the Voice of God place his FAITH with our FAITH.

Bro. Joseph Branham

63-1110E He That Is In You

 

 


Saturday, January 6, 2024

Dear Separated People,

God came in our day and revealed Himself in human flesh, in a man named William Marrion Branham, so He could fulfill His Word. That is the Revelation of Jesus Christ in our day.

To listen to that Voice and believe every Word is God’s only provided Way for today. He sent the world many men anointed with His Holy Spirit, but He only sent and spoke through one man to reveal His Word and to lead His Bride.

He never changes His Program or His Way of doing things. The way He did it the first time, He does it every time. He leads His people Himself, by the Pillar of Fire.

Never forget, YOU ARE God’s chosen elected Bride and there is nothing the devil can do or say that can take that from you, NOTHING! He predestinated you before the foundation of the world. He knew you then, and you were with Him. He knew your name. He knew everything about you. He knew your ups and downs. He knew your failures, your mistakes, and He still loved you and chose you for you were part of Him.

Your soul can only feed on His Word. Nothing can satisfy you but His Word. You love to read His Word and meditate upon Him, praying from the depths of your heart. When you hear His Voice speak directly to you, it lifts you up beyond the curtain of time. For you know you are sitting with Him in Heavenly places as He speaks lip to ear to you, revealing His Word, reminding you, YOU ARE MY BRIDE.

The devil can pound and pound and pound at you. You can get so low sometimes and feel you are a total failure; feel like you’ve failed Him like no other. You are the worst of the worst, but somewhere, down deep in your soul, you hear that Still Small Voice tell you: “Nothing can separate you from ME, YOU ARE MY WORD. I placed your name on My Lamb’s Book Of Life, Myself.”

What can I say to encourage you today?

Just stay in the Word. PRESS PLAY every day and hear the Voice of God speak Thus Saith The Lord and tell you; I am uniting you around My Word. You can overcome ANYTHING, for My Word lives and dwells in you. I have proved to you, you have PERFECT FAITH. You’ve applied The Token, and It has put you in Desperation. I will stand behind My Word. I’ll do what I said I would do.

How wonderful is His Words that He speaks to us on the Tapes. We know It’s not some man, a carnal person that’s among us. It’s the Eternal God speaking to us, His Bride.

You are invited to join the Bride this Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we gather to listen to that Still Small Voice: 63-1110M Souls That Are In Prison Now.

Bro. Joseph Branham

Dear Father,

We have played around long enough. We’ve went to church long enough. Since hearing the Message, The Token, it has thrown Your Bride into desperation.

We know something is fixing to take place. Time is at hand. We want You to come and take us out of this world. We want to be with You. We feel desperate in the very depths of our souls.

Are we just going to talk about it? Have we gotten desperate enough? Are we crying out to You like we should day and night?

Oh, Church, rise and shake yourself! Pinch your conscience, wake yourself up, in this hour! We must be desperate, or perish! There is coming forth something from the Lord! I know it as THUS SAITH THE LORD. There is coming forth something, and we better get desperate. It’s between Life and death. It’ll pass through us and we won’t see it.

We know it takes desperation to bring You on the scene. We’ve got to have It now or perish. Lord, let us become desperate like never before, then You will move on the scene and come get Your awaiting Bride.

Help us Father to press into It. Not just simply walk into It, easily, but pressed into. Not just talk about It and go on with our daily lives. We want to seek You with all our hearts, with all our souls and with all our mind. Lord, help us.

We know we have failed You many times, Lord, but You told us if we fail, that don’t have nothing to do with it; we’re a failure to begin with, but we’ve got You standing there with a strong hand and can reach down and lift us above the water.

The prophet announced to us that You would only pass over us when You saw the Token applied. Lord, we have followed Your instructions and have applied the Token and made our homes a Tape Church, listening to and believing every Word.

He only recognizes the—the Token. That’s the Message of the hour! That’s the Message of this day! That’s the Message of this time! In the Name of Jesus Christ, receive It!

We are positive, and believe and apply everything according to what the prophet told us.

We believe everything takes place and happens in Your perfect time. There is nothing out of place. We have seen all of Your miracles, and have heard and come under the sign of the Token.

Now while we are under the sign of the Token, we’re going to take the Communion this Sunday in desperation. For we know You are fixing to strike with judgment.

May we take It as the symbol of the Passover, when It was taken in an emergency, in a time of desperation. We are in desperation again today Father.

We are thankful, Lord, that we can look back on this year and see all You have done for us. You have revealed Your Word and given us Revelation on top of Revelation like never before.

We now know we are Your sons and daughters. We are Your perfect Word Bride You have waited so long for. It is You, living and dwelling in us. You chose us, predestinated us and now You’re coming for us.

Lord, may we seek You day and night. May we become so desperate crying out to You. May we press into It like never before. May this be the year You will come for us.

We love you Father, and want to be in Your perfect Will. Come be with us as we unite at 5:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, around Your Voice and hear You tell us how to come into: Desperations 63-0901E. Then be with us as we partake in desperation, the Lord’s Supper.

These are the greatest days of our lives Father. For we know You are coming soon to take us to our Future Home with You. We are looking daily with great anticipation for the saints that have gone on before us. We know when we see them, the time of Your coming has arrived....GLORY!!!

We are in Desperation for that day, Father.

Bro. Joseph Branham.
