Dear Bubbling Bride,
I’m so thankful we don’t have to lean unto our own understanding, but are able to sit together in Heavenly places in the presence of the Holy Spirit and drink from His inexhaustible Fountain of Life. It’s a well of water bubbling up within us unto everlasting Life.
It’s hard for us to understand how someone who has access to that Pure Artesian Well would want to drink from a man-made trough, with a man-made spout, into a man-made tank, with a man-made strainer over the top of it to get the big bugs out of it, when there is a Fountain to drink from that has been vindicated to be Pure Water from the throne of God.
We know by the Reading of the Word in Saint John’s Gospel that,
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us.”
He was the True and Faithful Witness to the Father’s Eternal Word. He was a Prophet and could only say what the Father bade Him say. He said, “My Father is in Me.” That is what Jesus the Tabernacle said, “My Father is in Me.”
The Word tells us in Revelation not to change one Word of it, as did Eve. He said it would bring sin and death.
“If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the Book of Life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.”
Our prophet told us God’s Word needs no interpretation. God said It, It has to come to pass. He interprets His Own Word. The Bible tell us It’s of no private interpretation. He said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. Then He said, “A virgin shall conceive,” she did. That don’t need any interpretation. Then God said, “In the last days I’ll pour out My Spirit upon all flesh”, and He did. That don’t need any interpretation.
The Word also tells us that in every age God sends a prophet, and that prophet speaks His Word. That prophet was the Word for that age. We also know God’s Word only comes to His prophet and that prophet is the divine interpreter of The Word.
Then His prophet reveals that Word to the audience. The audience believes every Word. That is God in action, God moving by His Spirit.
So, let’s review that:
- God is The Word.
- God speaks His Word directly to His prophet.
- The prophet speaks God’s Word, not his word, God’s Word.
- The prophet reveals God’s Word to the people.
- God’s Word needs no interpretation.
- People believe It.
- That’s God in action
Then if I “PRESS PLAY” I’m listening to:
- God speaking directly to me.
- His Word.
- Spoken through His prophet.
- Which needs no interpretation.
GLORY, we’ve Caught The Vision.
To listen to This Message is God’s provided way for His Bride in this day. It has been recorded and preserved for the Bride to drink from this Artesian Well. To listen to This Message is to sit under the greatest atmosphere that we could be under, for it is the very Word of God spoken directly to us from God.
That has to be the plan of God for His Bride in these last days.
Let us come together at 1:00PM Jeffersonville time and drink from That Inexhaustible Fountain of Life as He tells us we don’t have to drink from Broken Cisterns 65-0123; He has provided Pure Water from His Fountain.

Dear One Of Them,
What were we doing last Sunday? We were gathered in our Tape Homes, all praying In His Name. We were baptized with the Holy Ghost, when the power of that Voice came. What He did for them that day, he did for us the same. We’re so glad we can say, WE’RE ONE OF THEM.
What a rest. What a peace. What an assurance His Bride has as we hear Him speak to us and tell us we are His Perfect Bride and are in His Perfect will. There is no other way, there is no other voice, no other message that can perfect His Bride except His Voice speaking through His vindicated messenger of the hour.
The unbelievers, that don’t have a full revelation, say, “You are placing too much on the man; give the glory to Jesus.” WE DO, for we believe it isn’t a man we’re listening to, nor are we giving the glory to that man, but it is Jesus Christ speaking through His vindicated messenger, and we are giving HIM all the glory. He has revealed to us it is HIM once again, speaking to His Bride through human lips as He promised He would.
That’s what we make our failures, tonight. We try to place all the glory, and Christ, way back in another age. The Bible said, “He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” He is just as much here in this building, tonight, as He ever walked in Galilee or Jerusalem.
When a man preaches and says, “you don’t have to believe every Word on them tapes, the prophet made mistakes, he said so himself, and we can show them to you. There is a difference when it was God speaking through him and his own thought or ideas”.
When a man stands and says that he’s a minister, a pastor of a church of somewhere, and he does not believe that Jesus Christ is the same in every detail (except the physical body), same yesterday, today, and forever, that’s the seed of discrepancy.
The same in every detail! Then some MAN is going to tell you there are mistakes in what he said, but by the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit through him, he will tell you what is and isn’t The Word? NOT TO ME HE ISN’T. The Angel of the Lord told His prophet, “Get the people to believe YOU.” And we do, every Word. He said,
In the Name of Jesus Christ! Don’t you add one thing. Don’t take, put your own ideas in It. You just say what is said on those tapes. You just do exactly what the Lord God has commanded to do. Don’t add to It.
When God speaks the Word, He doesn’t need any man or any woman, or no one else, to say what That means. God means just what He says He means. But they don’t want to lean to what the Word says, they want to lean to their own understanding. They want to lean upon what some minister says instead of upon what God said. The Scripture tells us that they were veiled.
The prophet told us that the Scriptures repeat themselves. As it was in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, so is it today. As it was in the days when Jesus was here on earth, so is it today. As it was in the days when His prophet was here, so is it today.
When Brother Branham had been in Tucson, Arizona, for three years, the ministers never invited him once to come preach behind their pulpit. Why? He said because they got-together and said, if any man had me in their pulpit, they would excommunicate that preacher.
Today, when you proudly say “We are a Tape Church. We invite His prophet to speak behind our pulpit every service,” that pastor, and that church, are excommunicated.
But when my voice is silenced in death, these tapes will still be playing, and you’ll recognize that what I’ve said has come to pass.
This is what we believe about The Voice that is on The Tapes:
“My sheep know My Voice. My Voice has been proven to them, to be true. It’s been vindicated that it is My Voice.” Now, now notice, they are not subject to following any other voice. They won’t.
“My sheep know My Voice, and a stranger they will not follow.”
So let us come together this Sunday at 1:00 P.M. Jeffersonville time to hear That Voice tell us: Lean Not Unto Thy Own Understanding 65-0120

Dear Saints,
How the Lord has been blessing us as we sit together in Heavenly places, under His great anointing, listening to His Word. With each Message we hear, He reveals more and more to us.
Sunday, he also told us something very special. Tonight, we could have another great opportunity.
When a soul is crying out; like that woman with the blood issue, that touched His garment. The Bible said, “He stood still.” It stopped Him. Think of it, just think of it; that the—the call of that one blind, insignificant old beggar, and with the sins of the world and the burden upon Him, going to Jerusalem to become a sin offering, yet the call of one human soul made Him stop and stand still.
64-0620e - God Has A Provided Lamb
Think of it, when we cry out to Him, no matter what He is doing, it will stop Him and make Him stand still to hear our request. How great thou art Father.
Let us cry to Him tonight, knowing He will stand still and be listening to our plea.
God Bless each of you.
Bro. Joseph Branham
Dear Blessed Ones,
What took place Sunday as we were all united together, listening to the Voice of God speak to us? We were commanded to lay our hands on one another. Then God spoke through His messenger and said:
I rebuke the devil. Satan, you are nothing but a bluff, and you’re exposed right here among the people, by the Scriptural evidence of the living resurrected Jesus. I adjure thee, by the living God, come out of this people and leave them go, for the glory of God.
Now, because we have recognized His Word being manifested, and doing just exactly what He said was going to be done, Satan was exposed, then rebuked and cast out. All who believe it was God speaking to them, were healed.
WE BELIEVED, THUS, WE WERE ALL HEALED!!
There is nothing more powerful than the Voice Of God speaking His Word. But It isn’t for everyone, it is only for those who recognize and believe it is Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever.
If you could have lived 2000 years ago and went to a church where Jesus was speaking, come up before Him and say, “Jesus, I have a need, have mercy on me. I recognize who You are, speak The Word and I will receive what I have need of.” When He prayed for you, your heart would leap with joy, for you would know there is NOTHING that could stand in the way of His prayer.
God HAS provided a way for us today to do exactly that. A church we can go to where Jesus Himself is speaking. Some don’t recognize it is a church, but nevertheless, it is a church.
We had them all across the country, hooked up the other night, every two hundred square miles had one of my churches.

If you’d like Jesus to speak at your home church, or your church where you all can come gather, I invite you to experience Elohim speaking directly to you. It’s very easy, PRESS PLAY.
This Sunday, He will once again speak to us and unveil Himself before us, proving He is the resurrected Jesus Christ. He will also tell us all about what Zacchaeus was thinking that day when he climbed up in a tree to see Jesus. How he was wiping the garbage off of his new clothes and had gotten splinters in his knees and all over his hands. How he was just sitting there picking them out, waiting for this so-called prophet to come by. “No one can see me when He comes up that way. When He turns the corner, I’m going to leave me one big leaf here, so I can look out and see Him”.
How blind Bartimaeus overslept and had arrived late that morning because all night long he had been dreaming that he could see again. He had tossed in his bed because he thought he could see, but then he realized, it was only a dream.
How his pretty genuine Hebrew mother would call him about two o’clock in the evening, “Bartimaeus”. She would get out on the front porch and get the old rocking chair, and get him up in her arms and tell him Bible stories. Oh how he just loved her Bible stories.
As he laid there that morning on the very rock that Jehovah had blasted off of the walls in the days of Joshua, he thought, “Right here, at this little road where I am, the great and mighty prophets Elijah and Elisha come arm in arm walking down that same road. If I could have only lived in that day, and been sitting here, I would have run out to those prophets, fell upon my face, and said, ‘Oh, prophet of God! Pray for me, and Jehovah would give me back my sight.’
As God provided for Bartimaeus on that day, so has God provided for us this day.
I would like to once again invite you to join us this weekend. I promise it will be like the lid took off of an artesian well, just spurting out the water; and the more it spurts out, the cooler and fresher it gets.
Saturday morning, we will be hearing: Who Is Jesus? 64-0620B, at a time that is convenient for you.
Then Sunday, we will unite all together at 1:00PM Jeffersonville time to hear: God Has A Provided Lamb 64-0620E
What could happen as we gather in the Presence of God?
Bro. Joseph Branham
Dear Bride, How our hearts were thrilled Sunday as we were united together for one purpose, to recognize the Presence of Jesus Christ among us. He gave us eyes, that we can see, ears so we can hear, but most important, He give us Revelation, so we could BELIEVE.
There is nothing greater than the Revelation He has given to us. To know who He Was, Who He Is, and now to know who WE ARE. His great plan has been fulfilled, He has restored His Bride back to The Original Word. WE ARE That Spoken Word Bride. GLORY!!
How can we express to Him what that means to us? To pray until we can realize that we are in the Presence of God, then tell Him what it means to us.
Every one of you people who profess to be Christians, get yourself quiet before Him. Don’t let the washing hinder. Don’t let the work hinder. Don’t let nothing hinder. Don’t let nobody know what you’re doing. Just go before Him. Get up in the woods somewhere. Get out on the side of the road. Go into the secret closet and close the door. When the kids gets at school, there get down on your knees. You’ve heard all kinds of voices everywhere, but just get down and stay there until those voices are silenced and you begin to lift up. It’ll change you. It’ll make you different, like It did this little Samuel. It’ll do something to you if you’ll just do it. Now, It’ll make you what you should be. It’ll make you the kind of Christian that you ought to be.
