63-0630M The Third Exodus

Saturday, September 30, 2023

Dear Exodus Bride,

These things that we are seeing taking place today could not have happened twenty years ago, or forty years ago; it’s only today that it is happening. This is the hour! This is the time! Now is the time for It to be fulfilled. God promised It, AND HERE IT IS.

We have spiritual understanding; the iniquity of this nation is filled up. The hour has arrived. It’s time to go to that promised Land. Not just another country to go to, but our Future Home we’ve been waiting for.

Just think of it, what is leading us is more than a prophet. It’s God manifested in flesh among us, with His Word to prove it. A prophet that did a thousand times more than any other prophet. It’s the Pillar of Fire leading us to that promised Land, the Millennium.

He chose our prophet and gave him a supernatural sign of the Pillar of Fire, so he wouldn’t be mistaken. What the prophet said is the very Words of God. He took our prophet, trained him up, then sent him back to us with the Pillar of Fire, to vindicate Himself to us, and give us a complete Revelation of all His Word.

If we want to go to that promised Land, we must never forget, God cannot, and He will not, change His program. He is God, and He can’t. He told us He’ll never deal with a group. He never has. He deals with us as individuals. He promised us in His Word He’d send us Malachi 4 to lead us to this Land, and He has.

But, you see, Ahab had a system that he thought was of the Lord. He said, “I got four hundred of them, schooled and trained.” And they claim to be Hebrew prophets, as ministerial groups does today.

Many don’t want to accept it, but like Elijah of old, God’s seventh angel messenger, our pastor, is the pastor of the world to lead His Bride.

He is Malachi 4:5, and Revelation 10:7. He is the fulfillment of all the Scriptures that the Bible foretold of him. It is this Message, this Voice, that is the Voice of God calling His Bride. It is God’s Blueprint for today.

It’s the same Pillar of Fire, by the same anointed system. The same God doing the same things.

Now the Word is made flesh and dwelling among us in our flesh, His Word Bride.

Let us cry out to Him and thank Him, praise Him, worship Him, for all He has done: Saving us, predestinating us, justifying us.

What He is doing for us right now; giving us Revelation and Revelation, telling us who we are. And all He is going to do for us… Come and get us for His Bride and take us to our Future Home He has made for us, and to be with Him throughout Eternity.

Whatever we have need of, cry out to Him. That’s what He wants His children to do. Cry out to Him till we’re satisfied and get what we need.

Come and unite with a portion of His Bride Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, and hear God’s pastor to the world, William Marrion Branham, tell us all about: The Third Exodus 63-0630M.

64-0830E Questions And Answers #4

Saturday, October 22, 2022

Dear Brother Joseph,

1. I have heard you say that you believe EVERY WORD of this Message is THUS SAITH THE LORD.

From the depths on my heart and with every fiber of my being I BELIEVE THAT. It is the very Voice of God speaking lip to ear to His Bride.

God spoke through His prophet and said:

So say I, 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.

If you claim you believe this end-time Message, you too must believe EVERY WORD in order to be His Bride. Satan tries to white wash It through the ministry and says, “When Brother Branham was telling hunting stories or saying ‘you have the best cook in the country’, or ‘I don’t have Scripture for that, but I’ll tell you what I think;’ You don’t have to believe that part. The Holy Spirit is here to lead us to understand what is and isn’t the Word.” THAT IS THE SAME DEVIL THAT SPOKE TO EVE AND SAID, SURELY.... HE DIDN’T MEAN EVERY WORD. Sound familiar?

They are doing exactly what he COMMANDED them not to do. He said SAY WHAT IS SAID on the tapes, not put your ideas or understanding to It. He didn’t say, “everything EXCEPT this part and that part, and your pastor will tell you when it was the Holy Spirit talking and when It was just me. I’m just one little pebble on the beach among these big stones.”

2. Do you think Brother Branham and/or his tapes are the absolute?

Brother Branham is not my Absolute but the Message he spoke on tape is absolutely my Absolute.

Many people say that is incorrect, the Bible is the Absolute. My friend, the Bible and the Message on tape are the same thing. That is the very essence of the Message. The Message on the tapes is the interpretation of the Bible. They are one and the same.

The simple fact is, 1: The Bible is the Word. 2: The Word comes to the prophet. 3: The prophet is the ONLY divine interpreter of the Word. 4: Our prophet, William Marrion Branham, is the manifested Word for our day and was sent to interpret the Word. 5: God’s Word needs no interpretation. What He speaks through His prophet on tape IS THE INTERPRETATION OF HIS WORD.

The Bible tells us that He was coming again and living in flesh just like He did with Abraham and Jesus Christ. He said He had many things yet to tell us. He said He would reveal all these great mysteries which are hidden in His Word. He said it needed no interpretation. He never said He’d send a group to lead and unite His people, HE HIMSELF WOULD LEAD THE PEOPLE BY HIS PROPHET LIKE HE HAS ALWAYS DONE. HIS WORD CAN NOT CHANGE.

3. Do you believe pastors should play the tapes in their churches?

Every pastor must do as he feels led of the Lord to do, as each church is sovereign. I do believe, and have said it many times over the pulpit, that pastors should put Brother Branham back in their pulpits by playing the tapes. I have never said they must quit preaching, just play tapes. But they use every excuse imaginable not to play the Voice of God in their churches.

I’ll let the prophet say how I feel about pastors that will not play that Voice in their churches.

Now, Brother Junior Jackson had a right to disagree with that. He wants his church…The people all want to speak with tongues and things in the audience. That’s Brother Junior’s troubles; that’s—that’s up to him. But Junior Jackson believes this Message the same as the...any of the rest of us does. He’s one of us.

4. Do you believe ministers should stop preaching?

No, I have never said that nor do I believe that. The Word tells us, and Brother Branham has been quite clear on these Q & A Messages, for the ministers to continue on.

I just feel led, for my church, to do a quick introduction; or by letter for now, and then press play and hear God’s ONLY vindicated Voice for today. I have said many times that I have the greatest ministry in the world, I get to introduce the Voice of God to my church every Sunday.

5. People are saying you feel if you don’t stream Branham Tabernacle services you are not the Bride?

I have NEVER said that or even thought that, my brothers and sisters. Anyone that would say such a thing is wrong. As the pastor of the Branham Tabernacle, I feel led to play the tapes of Brother Branham. I believe that Voice is the only thing that will unite the Bride.

As I said earlier, I believe everything on the tapes is Thus Saith the Lord and needs no interpretation. I can say amen to every Word I hear. I believe William Marrion Branham was sent to call out a Bride. My place in the five-fold ministry is to point the people to that messenger and then press play. There is nothing greater than to hear that Voice. The greatest anointing is on the tapes, so why would I want to give my church anything else?

Every Sunday I invite the world to listen to the Message the Lord has placed on my heart to play to my church. Everyone is welcome to listen at the same time.

I use as my guide what Brother Branham said on the tapes.

And we got this telephone system now, which is very, very fine. The people can set right in their homes or their…gather in their places, their churches, and so forth, and hear the service. I appreciate that.

Now, pastor, I want you to know that, that, this is only to my congregation I speak these things. And I have a right to do that, because I been set by the Holy Spirit to watch over these sheep.

This Message, and all other of the Messages that I speak on, is directed to my congregation. It’s not for your congregation unless they want to receive It. But It’s directed to this people here.

And that's the world around. And people get up at midnight in the night, in old countries, they keep that prayer chain at the same time. Literally, tens of thousands and thousands of thousands are praying at the same time. God's bound to hear; you're just—you're just storming Heaven with prayer, you see, so He's got to hear.

6. Is it wrong to go to church?

I have never said that or believed that. If I believed that why would I have a church? At the Branham Tabernacle we had 3 services per week until it became just too hard for me to have that many services each week and do the work at VGR. We then had 2 services per week at the Tabernacle until it was just not able to hold the people. So we moved to our building we used for our young people, which was a gymnasium.

The Lord had placed on my heart to make a statement one Sunday morning. I said even if they closed these church doors one day, we would not miss a beat as our pastor could speak to us wherever we were. A month later, we had COVID which closed the churches around the world.

I felt led that during that time, it would be a good opportunity to remodel the gym, as we needed a sanctuary. Thus, we have been happy in our homes, united and listening to God’s prophet on tape with a portion of the Bride around the world, while the church is being remodeled.

We are just now finishing the building, but just like when Brother Branham was here at the Branham Tabernacle, we have already outgrown the additional parking we built. We’ll just have to pray and see how the Lord leads.

I know there are many, many more questions on the peoples’ hearts. There are many things I have said that have been misunderstood. If Brother Branham was misunderstood, how much more will I be?

I could be wrong in what I’ve said. I could have said them better or have been more clear in the way I presented them. But there is one thing I KNOW is right, THIS MESSAGE IS PERFECT. You don’t have to listen to me or what I say, but you MUST PRESS PLAY AND BELIEVE EVERY WORD.

Once again, I invite you to join the Branham Tabernacle this Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we hear: Questions And Answers #4 64-0830E.

63-0721 He Cares. Do You Care?

Saturday, April 23, 2022

Dear Exodus Bride,

As the Hebrew children gathered on the early mornings to get manna that had been provided for them over the night, to sustain them through the coming day, we also gather for the spiritual Manna that has been given to us to sustain us for our journey.

The Bride is united together in such harmony with God, until the manifestation of the Bridegroom is being manifested in the Bride. We are holding on to every Word that was spoken and have become One with HIM.

The iniquity of the nations has been filled up. She is filthy. It is now time for our exodus to go to the Promise Land, to our Home. The Bride has made Herself ready.

As He did in His first exodus, in His second exodus, and now in His third exodus, God chose and sent us a prophet with a Supernatural sign of the Pillar of Fire, that the people wouldn’t be mistaken, and would know it was who He chose to lead His Bride.

What His prophet said was Thus Saith The Lord. It was God, coming down in the Pillar of Fire, vindicating and revealing His Word. That Pillar of Fire anointed His prophet and stood as a Heavenly Witness to prove that he was the one chosen to lead His Bride to the Promise Land.

We believe that all churches ought to be fellowshipping together under This Voice, and not segregated. What separates us? It’s not the colors of our skin. It’s not the kind of food we eat. It’s man who has got off the beaten path of the teaching of the Gospel, each man.

There is only ONE WAY to definitely show which is right and wrong. The only way you’ll ever do it, is by not putting any interpretation to the Word, but just read It and listen to It, and believe every Word.

But he said they are not doing it because of jealousy, because of spiritual blindness. They don’t want to see. They won’t listen to It.

The God of Heaven will raise up, and my voice will be on the magnetic tape of God’s great time yonder, and it will condemn this generation in the last day. Cause, it’s—it’s on magnetic tape, then it’ll be on the Eternal tape then.

It’s God, Himself, manifested in human flesh, by the Blood of Jesus Christ, to sanctify a life that He might reflect Himself through, and today they crucify that same Word made manifest.

And then may those who are listening by the way of tape, may they listen close. And may we be able to catch what the Holy Spirit is trying to reveal to us.

We HAVE caught what the Holy Spirit is trying to reveal to us, and we’re all going to the Promise Land. Every one of us! Whether you’re a housewife, or whether you’re a little maid, or whether you’re an old woman, or a young man, or an old man, or whatever you are, we’re going, anyhow. There isn’t going to be one of us left. Every one of us is going!!!

It is totally impossible for God not to keep His Word to us, if we’ve kept our word to God. If you truly believe It, there’s nothing that can make you doubt it. Time, space, nothing else can make you doubt it.

He cares for us so much that He sent us a prophet to direct us, His elected people, by providing a way of escape. He not only cared for us to bring us out, He’s provided everything we have need of while on our journey. He’s conquered every enemy for us. He heals us when we are sick. He stored up hidden Manna to feed us daily; He’s even conquered death, all you have to do is to be sincere and believe It.

We are predestinated to Eternal Life. We listen to It and we rejoice to It. It’s your Comfort. It’s the Thing we’ve longed for all our life. It’s that Pearl that we’ve forsaken everything for. We want It because we know it’s God’s loving care for us.

Do you have need of ANYTHING, spiritually, physically, or just a closer walk, or filled or re-filled with the Holy Spirit? Come unite with us around God’s Word and provided way for today and get what you have need of, IF YOU CARE. He promised to send It, and He’s done it! He promised It in His Word, and here It is! He cares, now what about you?

There will be something in your heart that tells you, “my troubles are over. I’m going to be well. I’m going to be filled. I’m going to be closer to Him. I am His Bride.”

Come join us Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we hear: He Cares. Do You Care? 63-0721.

It is going to be a great big love feast as you hear Him tell you He careth for you, through sunshine or shadow, He careth for you.

Construction Update

Monday, December 6, 2021

Branham Tabernacle Construction update:

I have been asked by SO MANY, “Brother Joseph, when do we get to come to the new church!?” Well I wish I knew the answer to that question...As many of you have experienced also, we have faced many delays in shipping materials to the jobsite, delays in permits from local authorities, and delays in the actual construction process also. It has been one thing after another. But even if the church WAS finished today, I don’t think we would be able to have service quite yet. Like you are probably thinking also, I’m anticipating a LOT of believers to come from the East and West at our first service back. I would guess well over 2,000 believers could be here, easily.

Brother Branham cared about the safety of the people. He often referred to limitations the church had because of restrictions from the fire marshal; it always grieved him when the building was too hot; he would ask the people to take turns standing, so no one would have to stand too long; he often apologized for it being too hot...HE CARED FOR THE COMFORT AND SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE. I too feel with 2,000 gathering all at once, it would be so hard for us not to shake hands, hug necks, and do things that could jeopardize the health of the people, especially our elderly...I know EVERYONE will want to come to the first service back, and I want to make sure they can.

I’ve been praying day after day, and week after week about these things. Am I disappointed? “Yes,” in one way, as I long to see you all again; but “Not at ALL” in another way. All I want to do is be in God’s Program, whatever That is. And I KNOW the series of tapes we have been hearing are His Program, His Perfect Will for us at this time. You that have been following along no doubt know that too. The Lord has truly poured out His Spirit to us in our home tape churches, and gave us Stimulation by Revelation like never before. Praise His wonderful Name for keeping the step of the Bride perfectly in line through this Pandemic. Blessed be your wonderful Name!

I do not know when that day will be, but certainly will continue in prayer every day, and ask that you pray about this also. For we not only want His perfect Will, but His perfect timing in all things.

I am happy to share several pictures with you of the progress of the church and the new Sunday School classrooms. They are turning out absolutely WONDERFUL; the new classrooms will be such a blessing to the children, and whenever I step inside the new sanctuary, I can just feel the presence of the Lord there. I know it is a church that Daddy would have loved to have, and I can’t wait to share it with you also.

I will try my best to let you know as early as I can when the first service at the new church will be, but until then, let’s continue in God’s Perfect Program for us, by inviting the prophet, the Seventh Angel, the Word for our day, into our homes to speak to us, and prepare us for His soon Coming. Lord Jesus, thank you for sustaining us with your Spiritual Food in due season. Come quickly and take us up from our homes for the sudden, secret going away of the church, that the world will know nothing about.

May God richly bless you,

Brother Joseph

Easter Weekend Schedule 2021

Wednesday, March 31, 2021

Dear Invited Guest,

It is with great expectations to invite each of you to our International Easter Eagle Gathering. A glorious weekend filled with prayer, worship, healing, outpouring and refilling of the Holy Spirit. A weekend like you have never experienced before.

It is not just the traditional Friday, Saturday and Sunday services with a few invited speakers, it is a gathering of the Bride of Christ from around the world who dedicate the whole Easter weekend to Him as we storm heaven with our prayers, hear the Voice of God speak directly to us by His chosen messenger, and worship our risen King.

We shut out all the world, our phones, our work, our friends, any and all distractions. We close our doors and invite Him into our homes for a weekend filled with non-stop worship and meditation to Him, and Him alone. What an opportunity we have.

We will thank Him for the wonderful time we had this winter as He has revealed His Word to us like never before, as we heard: The Seven Seals, Masterpiece and The Seven Trumpets. He has been preparing us and perfecting us for His soon coming. And now He has something special in store for us this Easter weekend.

We hear the world now saying, “We’re done, and we want to get back to normal, the way things used to be. Everything is okay now, we beat this thing. We were scared for a while, that there might be something to this, so we hung out at the Ark for a while, but it hasn’t rained, let’s get on with our lives.”

But the Bride is crying out the opposite, “IT WILL RAIN, WE’RE IN THE ARK LORD as your Word commanded. Come get your Bride, this is not our home. We’re ready to come to our new home you’ve been preparing for us. We can never be the same.”

We have experienced the greatest days of our life. Now, He is giving us yet another opportunity to fill a whole weekend with nothing but Him. Days we have longed for. Days we have prayed for. A special time when we can say to Him, “Lord Jesus, You said You’re coming for a Bride that has made herself ready. Lord, we believe we are that Bride You have been waiting for. A Word Bride that loves and believes every Word. I want to gather with Your Bride from around the world, and in unity, worship and praise You, and to make ourselves ready for Your soon coming.”

What will bring Him on the scene? Desperation. We must become desperate.

Now, I believe that we’re living in the days that we’re…Or, otherwise, the days that we’re living in should cause the Church to go completely into desperation. I believe, since the message this morning from God, not me, I believe it ought to throw this entire congregation into desperation, that we have played long enough. We’ve went to church long enough. We got to do something.

What an opportunity we have to become desperate this weekend and call Jesus on the scene. Come gather with the Bride this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. We’ve played long enough, we’ve went to church long enough, we’ve got to do something.

I would like us all to unite this weekend on Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) for the following schedule.

FRIDAY
Let us begin our Easter weekend at 9:00 A.M., then again at 12:00 P.M., by uniting in prayer and inviting the Lord to be with us and His Bride from around the world on this very special weekend, and to fill our homes with His Holy Spirit as we dedicate ourselves to worshipping Him.

Then let us rejoin together in prayer at 3:00 P.M. in commemoration of our Lord’s crucifixion. May our minds go back to that day over 2000 years ago, to Calvary, and see our Savior hanging on that cross, and then read our name in there:

When you can read your name in there, "He was wounded for William Branham's transgressions; He was bruised for William Branham's iniquity," that's when peace comes. Not just that it was just a wholesale affair; it was for me. It's an individual. I was included in that. "With His stripes William Branham was healed." Then it's different.

Then at 7:00 P.M., let’s hear the most important court case of all time come to order, as we gather around His Throne to hear the Message: The Trial 64-0419.

SATURDAY
Saturday: 9:00 A.M., 12:00 P.M., and 3:00 P.M., let us once again all unite in prayer.

Then Saturday evening at 7:00 P.M., we will all come together to hear the WORD: That Day On Calvary 60-0925. What a wonderful day this is going to be.

SUNDAY
On that great and wonderful resurrection morning, let us rise early like Brother Branham did, at 5:00 A.M., and just thank the Lord for raising Jesus from the dead:

“Five o'clock this morning, my little friend with a red breast flew up at the window and woke me up. Seemed like his little heart would burst, saying, "He is risen.”

At 8:30 A.M. let us sincerely join once again in our prayer chain, praying for each other and preparing ourselves to hear the Voice of God.

At 9:00 A.M. we will come together to hear our Easter Message: The Indictment 63-0707M.

At 12:00 P.M. let’s once again unite in prayer, thanking Him for the WONDERFUL WEEKEND HE HAS GIVEN US WITH HIM AND WITH HIS BRIDE.

To my brothers and sister overseas, I would like to invite you to unite with us Jeffersonville time, for all the prayer times on this schedule and for the tape played on Sunday morning. I realize, however, that playing the Tapes on Friday and Saturday evening at Jeffersonville time would be very difficult for most of you, so please feel free to play those Messages at whatever time of day is convenient for you. I would, however, like for us all to join together on Sunday at 9:00 A.M., Jeffersonville time, to hear our Sunday Message together.

Click here for a printable Schedule in PDF format.

I would also like to invite you and your children to be part of the Creations worksheets and tutorials, and the YF quizzes, which your whole family can enjoy together. We think you will love them as they are all based upon the WORD we will be hearing this weekend.

Click here to see the material you will need for the Creations projects. The projects themselves can be viewed here.

Click here for the Easter Weekend tape quizzes.

It is such an honor for me to invite you and your family to come together with the Bride around the world for a weekend full of WORSHIP, PRAISE AND HEALING. It is a weekend that will change your life.

Wednesday Prayer Service

Wednesday, January 27, 2021

Dear Chosen Ones,

The Bride is still basking in the glory of the Word it heard Sunday. Our hearts are rejoicing, our spirits are high; the realization that we are His Chosen Ones is becoming clearer and more real each day as we hear the Message Thunder out and tells us, “Behold, I’ll send you Elijah the prophet. He will be My Voice to you. He will reveal all My secrets to you. It will give you the rapturing in faith you need to be My Bride.”

All we have need of is in that STORED UP FOOD. He said “I will do nothing unless I reveal it to My prophet. I have revealed It to him and he will reveal It to you.” Thus, all we have need of is ON TAPE.

But he warned us, we must be ready for His coming all the time. We must be in The Word constantly. The battle is raging and there is only one way to defeat the enemy, THE WORD.

What am I trying to say? I’m not trying to scare you, worry you. I—I want you to be on your toes. Be ready, watching, every minute. Quit your nonsense. Just get down to business with God, ’cause it’s later than you think.

We must get down to business. His Word should be on our minds and in our hearts every minute of every day. When we arise each morning, while we are at work, cleaning the house, schooling the kids, driving in the car, in the store, whatever we are doing, we need to be meditating on The Word and fellowship with Him throughout the day.

We’re close Bride, real close. He is manifesting His Word before us daily. We are becoming more like Him with each passing day. The negative is becoming the positive, just as He said it would.

Let us be prayed up today, tomorrow, and every day. Don’t let Satan beat you down, let that Word lift you up. Let Father remind you as you fellowship with Him. HAVE NO FEAR, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS. JUST SPEAK THE WORD, FOR YOU ARE MY WORD.

Time is at hand, the Bridegroom is coming for His long awaited Bride. All last-minute details are being taken care of. We hear the wagon wheel coming. Be ready and under great anticipation. What will He do and reveal to me today?

Easter Week Schedule 2020

Tuesday, April 7, 2020

The following was posted on the branham.org website.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

I have never been more excited about Easter weekend than I am RIGHT NOW. The world is in chaos, a virus has plagued every nation, fear is painted on faces everywhere we look, but the Bride is looking upward today, saying, “Thank you Father, for you have prepared us for this hour, and we have no fear for our redemption is drawing nigh.”

Praise be the Name of the Lord! He has given us vindication after vindication that we are in His Perfect Will, and that He is Coming for us SOON. He has trained us for this hour, friends, through our Home Tape services, Home Prayer Meetings, and Home Easter Meetings as well.

For the past several years, we have announced an Easter Weekend Schedule to be done in our HOME CHURCHES, which unites the Bride as never before, and includes prayer times, tape services, and meditations on the Lord. It has become a weekend of what Easter should be all about, a weekend of CONSECRATION and HOLINESS unto the Lord; a weekend of shutting the entire world out of our lives, and inviting Christ to come into our homes, and into our hearts, worshiping Him all weekend, PRAISE THE LORD.

I believe this Easter will be the most special Easter we have ever had. The enemy thinks he has the upper hand by confining us to our homes and cutting off our fellowship, but God has already provided another way for us to come together from around the world to His Throne.

As in past years, I would like to encourage each household to join in on a true Communion with the Lord this Easter, devoting the whole weekend to worshiping Him. Let us shut out the world by turning off our phones and not be distracted with texts, social media, news, or the many things that keep our minds occupied, but just speak to Him, and He will speak back to us. I promise you, it will change your life, you will never be closer to Him.

I would like us to all unite this weekend on Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) for the following schedule.

FRIDAY

Let us begin our Easter weekend at 9:00 A.M. then again at 12:00 P.M. by uniting in prayer and inviting the Lord to be with each of us on this very special weekend, and to fill our homes with His Holy Spirit as we dedicate ourselves to worshiping Him.

At the same time, I ask everyone to pray at—at nine o’clock at morning, twelve o’clock at day, three o’clock in the afternoon. And that’s the world around. And people get up at midnight in the night, in old countries, they keep that prayer chain at the same time. Literally, tens of thousands and thousands of thousands are praying at the same time. God’s bound to hear; you’re just—you’re just storming Heaven with prayer, you see, so He’s got to hear.

53-1201 - "God's Provided Way"

The healings, the Holy Ghost filling, and the re-consecration we will be receiving as the Bride around the world joins together at one time, in one accord, to pray with and for one another… what can and will take place?

"But He was bruised for my iniquity. The chastisement of my peace was upon Him. And with His stripes William Branham was healed." Oh, if we can just read our name into Scripture, and really mean it, it’s that what does it. Read our name into it, makes a receiving, pardoning, for when we realize that He was wounded for our transgression, He was bruised for our iniquity.

Then at 7:00 P.M. gather around His Throne once again to hear the Message: 57-0419 The Perfection

SATURDAY

Saturday: 9:00 A.M., 12:00 P.M., and 3:00 P.M., let us once again all unite in prayer

Then Saturday evening at 7:00 P.M. we will all come together once again to hear the WORD: 57-0420 The Entombment. What a wonderful day this is going to be.

SUNDAY

On that great and wonderful resurrection morning, let us rise like Brother Branham did at 5:00 A.M. and just thank the Lord for raising Jesus from the dead:

“Five o'clock this morning, my little friend with a red breast flew up at the window and woke me up. Seemed like his little heart would burst, saying, "He is risen.”

Hallelujah, He HAS risen and there is an empty tomb, and we will be risen with Him some glorious day.

At 9:00 A.M. let us sincerely join once again in our prayer chain, praying for each other and preparing ourselves to hear The Voice Of God.

At 9:30 A.M. we will come together to hear our Easter Message: 65-0418m It Is The Rising Of The Sun

At 12:00 P.M. we will once again unite in prayer, thanking Him for the WONDERFUL WEEKEND HE HAS GIVEN US WITH HIM AND WITH HIS BRIDE.

To my brothers and sister overseas, I know this schedule will be very difficult for you due to the time difference. I’d like to encourage you to do your prayer times according to your local time, at 9:00 A.M., 12:00 P.M., and 3:00 P.M. To unite with your own country in prayer, but please also set your alarms so you may join in at Jeffersonville, Indiana, times for prayer as well. The whole world will storm Heaven TOGETHER with prayer at these times, just as Brother Branham instructed us to do.

I also realize that playing the Friday and Saturday Messages at Jeffersonville time would be very difficult for you, as it would be very early in the morning for many of you, so please feel free to play the tapes at your local times. I would, however, like for us all to join together on Sunday at 9:30 A.M., Jeffersonville time, to hear our Sunday Message together.

Click here for the Schedule in PDF format so you may print it out.

I would also like to invite you and your children to be part of another very special activity this Easter. Many have asked if we can post the Creations Easter tutorials and quizzes for the whole family to enjoy together. We think you will love them as they are all based upon the WORD we will be hearing this weekend.

Click here to see the material you will need for the Creations projects. The projects themselves can be viewed here.

It is such an honor for me to invite you and your family to come together for a weekend of WORSHIP, PRAISE, and INSTRUCTIONS in the Word. Thank the Lord for the Hidden Manna He has provided for His Bride. Praise His wonderful Name.

May God richly bless you,

Bro. Joseph

Easter Schedule 2018

Wednesday, March 28, 2018

Brother and Sisters,

What an exciting time we are living in. The apostles believed He was coming in their day, Wesley looked for Him in his day, Luther thought, surely He would come his day, but now the day has come, and it has been revealed to us: HE IS COMING IN OUR DAY.

And I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm.

Now, here in the last day, here He is right with us, moving right among us. At the end of the third day, He appeared and showed all of them His resurrection sign, that He was living, the same yesterday, today, and forever, living fruits of His Presence. Living fruits of His Presence! Are you getting it? Was manifested at the very end of the day, when He appeared to all of them, His Church. Amen. Why? They all got together, oh, amen, at the end of the third day.

This day, this Scripture is being fulfilled! He is uniting His Bride around His Spoken Word, which has been manifested and revealed to His predestinated Bride, and by His GRACE, we are One Of Them.

What a special weekend He has in store for His Bride as we gather in our homes, unite in prayer, worship Him, and hear His Hidden Manna that has been stored-up, which only His Bride can eat.

There has never been an opportunity in history for His children to unite in one mind and one accord around the world, speak to Him, and HEAR His Word spoke through His Messenger. Can you imagine how happy it must make Father to see His little Bride dedicate three straight days just to worship Him and hear Him?

Oh, how the tutor must've enjoyed walk up before the Father and say, “Father, I am so glad to tell you. You know, that boy of Yours is just exactly like You are. You know, he will read Your Word, and he will say, ‘That's just exactly the Truth. That's what my Father said. My Father can't lie. I believe it just the way He said it.’” Oh, how the Father must say, “That's—that's My boy.”

Let us go back to that first Easter weekend and remember, He was bruised for our iniquity, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His stripes we were healed. And on that great Easter morning, He arose, and is alive again for evermore; and when He rose, He did something so His apostles would recognize Who He was. He had risen just like He promised He would. And now, in our day, just like He promised, He has revealed Himself again like He did with Abraham: through Melchisedec, in human flesh…His messenger, calling His Bride back to perfection, letting them know that all things have been fully restored. The fruit is ripening on the top of the Tree, and it is Harvest Time. Now That Word is being manifested in US. Praise the Name of the Lord.

I have been praying and seeking the Mind of the Lord for what Messages He would have us listen to this Easter. The following are the Messages and a schedule for us to unite around during this special weekend.

May Father’s richest blessings be with each of you as we unite together around His Throne.

Brother Joseph

Wednesday Home Prayer Meeting

Wednesday, August 30, 2017

Praise the Lord for another wonderful camp with both our younger youth and their parents. The Lord truly was with us, and His Presence was felt by all.

As you can hear in the testimonies posted on the Still Waters website, Sunday was the capstone when we played the Message, “Teaching On Moses.” What a Message to both young and old. Other stories we hear might not be true, but we heard the REAL TRUE STORY of Amram’s all-night prayer meetings, praying for God’s people, prayers that changed the whole world. How his faithful prayers brought God Himself from His Throne and then called His great Angel Gabriel and all His other Angels to look upon His servant:

Gabriel say, "Here I am, Lord."
"Come here; going to show you something." Said, "All you Angels come around here a minute; I want to show you something. I got people that believes Me. Yes, I got people who trust Me. Come here now. It's good for all you Angels, take a look at this. Look."
"Where is it at?"
"Right down there. Where abouts."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I see it."
"Look right down there. See the edge of them--them--them bulrushes there, them flags and things?"
"Yeah."
"See there."
"What is it?"
"There's a man with his hands up in the air, on his knees, calling on Me. There's a crying mother, and two little crying children. They're trusting Me to the very end. Gabriel, you remember when you went in? You remember that man?"
"Yes, I met in the room that night and talked to him. Uh-huh."
"He still trusts Me. I got people that believe Me. I got people that'll trust Me to the end. See him? Look at him. Yes, oh isn't that gallant."

That is who we want to be with all of our hearts, and what we want Father to say about us to His Angels, “Come here, look, there is still a people that prays to Me whether they are busy, tired, or the enemy has their minds on so many other things. They keep pressing and praying. They are praying night and day, they are making themselves ready, they are wanting Me to come and get them for the Rapture.”

I have been seeking the Lord all week and this morning about tonight’s service. I had what I thought was the Message He wanted to play tonight, but for some reason, He has been pressing me all day in a different direction. I know I have announced that we will be having more home prayer services, as I have felt this is how He is leading. However, I had it upon my heart to have a service in the Tabernacle tonight because I haven’t seen you for some time. I just wanted to see you and fellowship with you. I was excited about the service tonight, but He is leading me in a different direction. He is telling me, “NO, PRAY.” Thus, obedience is better than sacrifice.

I know He has something great in store for us. He is truly leading us in a great way. I believe with all my heart that these home prayer meetings are so important. He is teaching us what we need to do. He is wanting us to keep before Him in prayer more and more, like our Brother Amram, “Someone has to do it.” I want that SOMEONE to be me. What did Amram do? Pray, Pray, Pray.

We must all get ourselves ready, placing Him FIRST in all things. Anything not like Him, must go. Any spirit not like Him, must go. We can’t say, “If you don’t come to our church, or see it my way, you’re OUT.” We must love one another, pray for one another. When we see someone struggling, don’t condemn them, LOVE THEM, PRAY FOR THEM, call their name before Father.

Listen to the Lord speak through our prophet, telling us what we MUST DO:

Oh, take this solemnly! We should love one another. Oh, my! We should be so in love! Don't never speak evil against one another. If somebody makes a mistake, pray for him right quick. We are together in this, with God. We are brothers and sisters. Oh, live godly. Live, live like daughters of God, live like sons of God. Live sweet, kind, humble.
Let no evil come in your mind, in your thinking. Just, just dismiss it. If it knocks on the door, take it away. Just say, just show your Token, just keep walking, "I am under the Blood!..."

…Now, you people that's listening to This, on tape, you women, you men, you listen a minute. If you ever believed me, you believe It now.
It's time for to quit fussing with one another. Believe the Message of the Bible! Believe Jesus Christ! And love, and honor, and respect one another. Man respect your wives. You respect your homes. Bring your home together, because, remember, this Lamb was for the home, not just one; for the whole home, too, had to be brought. Everything had to be brought in. We should love each other. And believers should separate themselves from the world.”

BRING YOUR HOME TOGETHER. I believe this is the way He is pressing me for us to have HOME PRAYER MEETINGS. This Token is for our home.

I know it may seem very untraditional to many outside people, and to them it is, but I must obey what I feel He is leading us to do and what I feel This Message is telling us we must do right now.

Let us also pray and prepare ourselves for Sunday night’s Communion service, where we will all gather at the Lord’s table.

I can’t wait to meet each of you tonight at His Throne in one mind and one accord.

Bro. Joseph

Christ Is The Mystery Of God Revealed 63-0728

Saturday, July 22, 2017

Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

I pray you had a wonderful home prayer meeting Wednesday night. Truly, there is something special about having that time with Him in prayer. I believe He has been pressing us to spend more time on our knees seeking Him and His Perfect Will, as well as to be in prayer for each other. There have been so many timely Messages the Lord has been bringing to us lately to encourage us and to let us know that we are HIS BRIDE. Since the playing of the Seals, this Message means more to me than ever before!

We have been listening to so many wonderful Messages in these last few months, where the Holy Spirit is letting us know we are doing the right thing by listening to His Stored Up Food on the tape as It is perfecting His Bride.

I have really been enjoying listening to the sermon: 63-0728, "Christ Is The Mystery Of God Revealed." The Holy Spirit says so many things to us through His prophet. Truly, this Message was spoken for us today:

Help, this morning, Lord, as we read the Word. May the Holy Spirit reveal It to us, that the Church might be fully established in "the Faith that was once delivered to the saints," to hold them. And may, as You gave the vision some two years ago, "to store up the Food," fine, healthy-looking vegetables that I saw in the vision, being stored here in this tabernacle, may we today receive a whole barrel full of That (Grant it, Lord.), or, a tape load: that It might reveal Jesus Christ to us in the hour that we live, to give us sustaining strength, the spiritual strength for the task that lays ahead. Grant it, Father.

Praise the Name of the Lord, I have Caught The Vision and we’re listening to a TAPE LOAD every day!

I would love for us to hear this Message together, but as you know it is quite a lengthy sermon. I have been praying, and I feel that the Lord put it on my heart to take this opportunity to listen to it and really study it from the comforts of our homes. May Father let every Word go deep into our hearts as we receive the meaning of everything He has for us.

I pray the Lord is with you wherever you might be and that He will draw you closer to Him. I am looking forward to being back together with each of you very soon. Until then, I’ll meet you before His throne both listening to His Word and in prayer.

Bro. Joseph

We have Seen His Star And Have Come To Worship Him 63-1216

Friday, December 16, 2016

We’ve had quite a few prayer requests over the past few days with people who are suffering from the flu and severe colds. This latest type of sickness has been very contagious, and out of respect to everyone in the close-quarters of the Tabernacle, Brother Joseph felt that it would be best to cancel service tonight (Wednesday, Dec 13) and encourage those who have symptoms to rest up and recover before our next service.

However, he feels it on his heart for the congregation to hear the Christmas Message, 63-1216 "We have Seen His Star And Have Come To Worship Him" with their families at home this evening. Although our hearts long to be together at the Tabernacle, we are grateful that we can still feast on the same Spiritual Food that we hear in church.

We are under great anticipation for the service on Sunday, and WANT to see you there for service. But again, we ask that you be considerate to others if you or your family have flu and cold symptoms, and stay home for the service.

Missing these services just makes us that much more excited for our next meeting together. Please come prepared for our annual election this Sunday, and more importantly, come expecting great things from our Lord Jesus. He never disappoints!

Easter Schedule 2016

Tuesday, March 22, 2016

Brother and Sisters,

How wonderful are these words that were spoken by God’s prophet, Brother Branham, to us on Easter morning, 51 years ago:

“Because He is rose that beautiful morning He made a way for us to be risen with Him”.

I am so looking forward to the coming Easter weekend where I know the Lord is going to unite His Bride from around the world, around Him and His Word. There has never been a time like the time we are living in, and the things we see coming to pass in front of our very eyes are like never before. His Bride is making Herself ready, finding Her place in His great economy, and His Tutor is reporting back to the Father saying: “You know what, Father? Your son is just like a chip off the old block. He is absolutely, exactly like You. Every Word that You say, he says 'amen' to It.” PRAISE THE NAME OF THE LORD.

I believe this will be one of the most special Easters with the Lord that we have ever had. We are going to get the opportunity to make our house a church like Rahab did thousands of years ago:

“But there must have been some tape boys slipped in somewhere, for the predestinated seed. They slipped over to her house and played some tapes. She made her—her own house a church, to receive the Message”.

Amen, let us make our houses to be a church home to receive THIS MESSAGE. What an opportunity and privilege we have to be able to be a “Tape Boy,” and turn our homes into a church that the Holy Spirit can come speak to us, through His prophet. There has never been a day that believers around the world can be listening to God’s prophet ALL AT THE SAME TIME...I told you it was going to be a WONDERFUL WEEKEND.

I have been praying and seeking the Lord what to do and play in our home churches for this weekend, and this is what the Lord has laid upon my heart for you to do and to listen to. I would like for us to all unite together this weekend on Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) for the following schedule:

FRIDAY

In preparation for prayer and thinking on the events of Good Friday, please read Matthew 26 and 27.

At 3:00 P.M. I want us all to join together in prayer in commemoration of our Lord’s crucifixion. May our minds go back to that day over 2000 years ago, to Calvary, and see our Savior hanging on that cross and say:

"But He was bruised for my iniquity. The chastisement of my peace was upon Him. And with His stripes William Branham was healed." Oh, if we can just read our name into Scripture, and really mean it, it's that what does it. Read our name into it, makes a receiving, pardoning, for when we realize that He was wounded for our transgression, He was bruised for our iniquity.

At 7:00 P.M. I’d like for us to hear the Message: The Perfection 57-0419

SATURDAY

Saturday at 7:00 A.M. (our international QT), 9:00 A.M., 12:00 P.M., 3:00 P.M., I want us all to unite in prayer:

We’ve got a universal prayer going around the world. Every three hours, or ever… that’s at nine o’clock at morning, twelve o’clock at noon, and at three o’clock in the afternoon, Eastern Daylight Standard time. We—we pray for the sick. And that goes around the world. People down in Africa, get up at midnight to offer up prayer at that time. When, I guess, around a million voices break forth together. Something has to happen. Don’t you believe so...?...When...Just think of it.

52-0720e - "Who Has Believed Our Report?"

The only thing it is, it’s just a little point of contact that...Now, when I send these out, there will be a regular form letter. At the same time, I ask everyone to pray at—at nine o’clock at morning, twelve o’clock at day, three o’clock in the afternoon. And that’s the world around. And people get up at midnight in the night, in old countries, they keep that prayer chain at the same time. Literally, tens of thousands and thousands of thousands are praying at the same time. God’s bound to hear; you’re just—you’re just storming Heaven with prayer, you see, so He’s got to hear.

53-1201 - "God's Provided Way"

And then, in there we form a prayer band, that people get up at one o’clock, two o’clock, three o’clock in the morning, the world around, according to the—the third, sixth, and ninth hour, nine o’clock at morning, twelve o’clock at noon, and three o’clock in the afternoon. And everybody with one universal prayer praying one for another, something’s got to happen; there’s millions of them. See? And we want you to get in on this, to pray with us and help us to minister to the people, that when we get up there we want you to have a part in the ministry.

56-0421 - "What Visions Are"

The healings, the Holy Ghost filling, and the re-consecration we will be receiving as the Bride around the world joins together at one time, in one accord to pray for one another…what can and will take place?

Then Saturday evening at 7:00 P.M. we will all come together to hear the WORD: The Entombment 57-0420. What a wonderful day this is going to be.

SUNDAY

On that great and wonderful resurrection morning, let us rise like Bro. Branham did at 5:00 A.M.: “Five o'clock this morning, my little friend with a red breast flew up at the window and woke me up. Seemed like his little heart would burst, saying, "He is risen.”

Hallelujah, He HAS risen and there is an empty tomb and we will be risen with Him some glorious day.

At 6:00 A.M., before our breakfast, we will hear God’s prophet and messenger bring us the sunrise Message entitled: The Great And Mighty Conqueror 57-0421s

At 9:00 A.M. let us sincerely join once again in our prayer chain, praying for each other.

At 9:30 A.M. we will come together to hear our Easter Message: It Is The Rising Of The Sun 65-0418m

At 12:00 P.M. we will once again unite together in prayer

At 3:00 our prayer chain will continue once again, as we prepare for the evening service and remember one another again, and thank Him for the WONDERFUL WEEKEND HE HAS GIVEN US TOGETHER and how we are looking forward to the Message we are about to hear.

At 7:00 P.M. We will be listening to our final Message on this memorable weekend together: And Their Eyes Were Open, They Knew Him 57-0421e

Father will certainly be with us this Easter weekend as I believe it will be a weekend we will never forget. I believe our lives will be changed and we will become more like Him.

May Father’s richest blessings be with each of you as we unite together around His Throne.

Brother Joseph
