All The Days Of Your Life
Part-5
(TO RECEIVE THE VERY PURPOSE GOD)
*PURPOSE IN YOUR HEART THAT YOU'LL LIVE. IF IT'S OLD FASHION, LIVE OLD FASHION AND SERVE THE LORD GOD OF THE HEAVENS AND EARTH.
*I DO NOT THINK THERE IS ANYTHING
ANY GREATER, THAN THAT I COULD THINK OF, THAN ETERNAL LIFE.
5 It's one of the greatest times of
my life, is when I get to stand before people, to speak about the joy of my
life, Jesus Christ, what He means to me, and then to have the privilege of
sharing this joy with someone else who has never had this joy.
……..

But, each day, He, as the song said, "He grows still sweeter
than He was the day before."As I begin to, crossed over the halfway mark
and looking towards the setting of the sun, Christ becomes more to me, day by
day. And when I have these privilege, stand before business men and
women of the communities, and to speak to them about something that means more
to them than--than anything in the world, that is, Eternal Life. I do
not think there is anything any greater, than that I could think of, than
Eternal Life.

When you're young, you begin to think about, well, as a boy you're
playing tops, and the little girl is cutting paper dolls. After while,
it's your education. Then, are you going to marry the girl with brown
eyes or blue? And then the house is to be paid for, the children is to
be educated. And where you at?
8
But I'm so glad that there is something that's real, after this is
all over. Then you enter in to something that means more than these other
things. Which, they are--they are essential. Certainly they are, to
who is going to be the mother of our... and father of our children, and our
homes and so forth, and the education of the children. But, even that, all
perishes. It goes. But Life Eternal is the greatest thing I know
of. It satisfied me when I was a young boy. It satisfies me now when
I'm a middle-aged man. And I'm sure when the curtains are falling around my
life, I'll be happy to go meet the One that I've spent my life for.

IT'S A PLEASURE TO SERVE THE LORD
JESUS, TO COME INTO HIS COURTS WITH THANKSGIVING, TO MAKE KNOWN HIS--HIS
BLESSINGS TO THE PEOPLE.
E-2 It's a pleasure to serve the Lord
Jesus, to come into His courts with thanksgiving, to make known His--His
blessings to the people. And I don't think there's anything greater to talk
about in the world today, than Jesus Christ. Do you think so? Someone
said, not long ago, said, "Brother Branham, you brag too much on
Jesus." I don't think so. I think He's worthy of
everything I could say about Him. I just can't say enough about Him, for I know
that He's worthy of everything that I would say. And I praise Him. We...
And pray to Him. Love Him. We just can't love Him enough.

*GOD PUT YOU HERE TO BE SONS AND
DAUGHTERS OF GOD, AND IF YOU FAIL TO GET THAT, YOU FAIL TO RECEIVE THE VERY
PURPOSE GOD PUT YOU ON EARTH TO BE.
E-33 And here--heresometime ago, I was talking
to a man out in Idaho up here, and he said, "Well, Mr. Branham,"
he said, "I raised hogs." He said, "My grandfather had
this herd. He educated us children. And the same herd, I've educated my
children. And my children will come up and educate theirs by the same herd."
I said, "That's
very nice, sir. And that's a legitimate job is to--is to raise stock."
But I said, "Did you know God put you here for some other purpose
besides raise hogs to educate your children? God put you here to be sons
and daughters of God, and if you fail to get that, you fail to receive the very
purpose God put you on earth to be." That's right.

No, matter
how honest, how decent, how moral you might be, how good you might be, what a
fine sociable fellow you might be; you still miss the calling unless you serve
the Lord Jesus and become a son and daughter of God. No, matter how good a
neighbor you might be, how good a anything you may be, that's all good and we
appreciate that. But my brother, until you become a son of God, you fail to
answer the purpose that God put you on the earth to be. That's
right.

*AND IF YOU WANT TO BE USED OF GOD,
PURPOSE IN YOUR HEART THAT YOU'LL LOVE HIM AND SERVE HIM, AND EVERYTHING WILL
BE FINE.
E-27 Now, Daniel said, "I'm going to
purpose in my heart. No matter how much pressure they put on me, how much they
laugh and say I'm a holy-roller, that won't bother me a bit. That won't phase
me one bit. I'm going to stay true to God no matter what comes through bad."
That's the way. Then you're going to get somewhere when you start with that
attitude.
Remember, it's
the motive that you have towards anything that determines what you're going to
get out of it. It's your motives. If your motives is right, you'll be all
right. But always make your motives right. Serve the Lord for one purpose,
because you love Him, not because you're afraid of hell, not because you're
afraid of dying, but because you love Him, Who loved you when you were
unlovable. That's it. "Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious Blood shall
never lose its power till all the ransomed Church of God be saved to sin no
more." That's right. "Ever since by faith I saw
that stream, Thy flowing wounds supply, redeeming love has been my theme, and
shall be till I die." What a marvelous quotation of the poet. And
that's right. Take all of everything else, but give me love.

E-28 If I had every gift in the Bible and
could exchange it for love, I'd never wink an eye. I'd take it right now. Let
me feel the blessings of the Lord Jesus and His Divine love into my heart
that's shed abroad by the Holy Ghost, and I'll exchange any gift in the Bible
for that. Yes, sir. I'd exchange a--a domain if I was a king and
setting on a throne, and the world was my domain, I'd give every penny of it
and forfeit a million years on this life in this world here as to have the love
of Jesus Christ, that's shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost. There's
nothing to compare with it.
So purpose
in your heart now that you'll serve the Lord, no matter what the world says. Oh,
how tricky the devil is, how sly he is, friends. Watch him.

E-29 Out in the scope of the little ministry
that the Lord has given me around the world in different nations, and seeing
that sly hand of the devil, so tricky. How easy he could upset you and make
it look like it's the truth. Yes, sir. The biggest lie was ever told had
truth in it. The first lie was ever told had truth in it. The first lie that
the devil told Eve had a lot of truth in it.
Said,
"She'd be open-eyed, she'd have--she'd be wise, she'd have more knowledge."
All that was true. And then he said, "Surely, you'll not die." But
God said you would die. So that just settled it. Keep true to the Word.
E-30 And Daniel was going to purpose in
his heart, he'd be true to God and God's Word. And while he was down there, the
Lord could use him. Why could He use Daniel? Because he had
purposed in his heart.And if you want to be used of God, purpose in your heart
that you'll love Him and serve Him, and everything will be fine.

GOD COULD DWELL SUPREMELY, TO DO OUR THINKING, DO OUR WALKING, DO OUR TALKING,
THEN IT'S NO LONGER THE MAN; IT'S GOD IN THE MAN.
E-20 Now, we're made up of light meters.
Inside of us is cosmic light. Now, that cosmic light is a light that they can
take an x-ray with. The x-ray doesn't come from the x-ray light; it comes from
your own light. And then if that cosmic light, say, could be pushed to a place
to where not cosmic light but Eternal Light... God could dwell supremely, to do
our thinking, do our walking, do our talking, then it's no longer the man; it's
God in the man.
(I suppose I'm
deafening you by this thing, 'cause I hear it rebound. It's got an awful voice.
It isn't me; it's this. Now, see, lay it onto that.)
Now, he's got
Light, Life. Eternal Life is the Light of God that dwells in the man. And if he
will yield to the Spirit, more he becomes unman-sinner-like, and becomes more
God-like.
