26-0417A_TAKING GOD AT HIS WORD PT-3 (STAYING WITH CHRIST IN THE WORD)
Mat 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
Mat 4:24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
Gen 4:1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
*IT'S TAKING GOD AT HIS WORD,
NOT WHAT YOU FEEL OR TASTE OR--OR WHAT THIS SAYS OR THAT SAYS.

E-4 Now, Peter was just not an ordinary fellow had fished one
or two nights. He knowed all the signs of fishing; just how the moon's supposed
to be, just how the waters are. And they'd fished all night long, and had taken
nothing. Now, just think, here it is, I want you to get it. See, they had
fished all night, and had taken nothing; and yet
Jesus told them to go right straight back to where they'd been fishing and drop
down the net, they'd get a whole draught of fish.
Now, if they'd just
fished through that water, a hour before, hour after hour, all night long, and
had taken not even one fish, how in the world are you going to drop the net
down and get a whole bunch of fishes? They're just not running. It just doesn't
even look reasonable, sensible.
But Peter said, listen
at him, here's what it is, "Lord, we have
seined all night and taken nothing. Nevertheless, at Thy Word, I'm going to let
down the net." There
you are. It's taking God at His Word, not
what you feel or taste or--or what this says or that says. It's taking
God at His Word. "At Thy Word, Lord, I'm going to let down the net. I
don't know how they're going to be there, but If You..." If there wasn't any there and Peter let down the net with
faith, believing that God would fulfill His Word, faith will put some there. And
it did do it. It did do it. Fish was there.
* GOD HAS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR
HIS WORD. IT'S ETERNAL AND FOREVER. GOD HAS NOTHING TO SUBSTITUTE FAITH.

70 ...So many people are listening to
enticing spirits and instead of taking the Word of God. Spirits, they're in the
world. They're demons, and they go out into places, and they get amongst men:
ministers. They get amongst church members; they get amongst good people; and they cause them to come
into a illusion; and they say things, and do things, and teach things, and
practice things that's contrary to the Word of God. Today ministers, other congregations
are allowing their people to play cards in the churches, many of them. Now,
that's not altogether Catholics; there's a lot of Protestants does that.
What they try to do is substitutionary something. They try to adopt
some new plan. They try to adopt education to take the place of the Holy Ghost.
You'll never be able to do it. No matter how well your man is educated... I
think it's a good thing for him to be educated, but if he hasn't got the Holy
Spirit with that, his education will do him no good. Education will never take
the place of the leadership of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
*YOU GOT TO GET THE MAN RIGHT
IN HIS HEART FIRST, BEFORE HE CAN BELIEVE.
10 You got to get the man right in his heart first, before
he can believe. He
ain’t got nothing to believe on. He ain’t got nothing to believe with. I’m sure
the little, infant brain of a man knows nothing about belief. He’s got to have something in there stimulates his faith
and makes him look yonder to his Creator, and believes the very God that
“Phew!” blowed the moon and stars off of His hand can do all things. This world was made by faith. God spoke
the world into existence. This
very world that we’re setting on right tonight, is nothing else but the Word of
God materialized. If it
didn’t, where did He get the material to make it out of?
*...“BROTHER BRANHAM, I JUST
DON’T FEEL LIKE PRAISING HIM.” THAT’S THE TIME TO MAKE A SACRIFICE.
Faith.Is.The.Substance_ 51-0508
35 Our bodies are groaning, and we have an inheritance, and we’re children now, heirs of the Kingdom, oh, my, kings
and priests unto God, offering spiritual sacrifices.
What does a priest do? Make a sacrifice (What is a sac-…?), a spiritual sacrifice. That’s what these sons and
daughters do, which are kings and priests, yet not in full possession, but
they’re making sacrifices, offering to God spiritual sacrifices, “The fruits
of our lips giving praise to Him.” Amen. “Fruits
of our lips.”
You say, “Brother Branham, I just don’t feel like praising Him.” That’s the time to make a sacrifice. Praise Him, anyhow. Kings and priests, sons and daughters offering spiritual sacrifice, “The fruits of our lips, giving praise unto His Name.”
Joh 6:32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
Joh 6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
Joh 6:34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
Joh 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
