10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh,
that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of
Israel out of Egypt. 11 And Moses said unto God, Who am I,
that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring
forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?

LOOKING.TO.THE.UNSEEN
…Satan is always near to try to get
something fumbled up in your mind. But
tonight, set your affections on things above,
where Christ sets at the right hand of God. And if
His Spirit be here, He reveals things today as He
did in the days gone by. Heavens and earth will
pass, but His Words shall not pass. Have faith in
God. Do not doubt.

13 God's purpose can never be defeated. There is
nothing can defeat it. So how happy ought we to be today,
resting upon that beautiful revelation of the Word of the
living God, that there is neither things present nor things
that can come; there's no sickness, no sorrow, no death,
no perils, nor nothing can separate us from the purpose
of the living God.
What God has imagined in His mind, what God has
purposed in His heart to bring to pass, there is no
demon, there's no power, there is nothing can ever
separate God's great immortal eternal plan. It must be as
God has said.

Moses at the Burning Bush:
EXODUS 3:10-11
10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto
Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the
children of Israel out of Egypt. 11 And Moses said unto
God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I
should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt? 12
And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be
a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast
brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God
upon this mountain.
4:1 And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they
will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice: for they
will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.

EXODUS 4:10-16
10 And Moses said unto the LORD, O my Lord, I am not
eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy
servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. 11 And the
LORD said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? or who maketh
the dumb, or deaf, or the seeing, or the blind? have not I the LORD?
12 Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee
what thou shalt say. 13 And he said, O my Lord, send, I pray thee, by
the hand of him whom thou wilt send. 14 And the anger of the LORD
was kindled against Moses, and he said, Is not Aaron the Levite thy
brother? I know that he can speak well. And also, behold, he cometh
forth to meet thee: and when he seeth thee, he will be glad in his
heart. 15 And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth:
and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you
what ye shall do. 16 And he shall be thy spokesman unto the people:
and he shall be, even he shall be to thee instead of a mouth, and thou
shalt be to him instead of God.

CONFERENCES
22 Moses tried to work it out in his own way. And
he found that he was wrong. And by doing so, like many
others who backslide from one revival to another, going
up and trying to impersonate a Christian, or standing
and making some kind of a sign, some declaration of
creed that we recite, we find ourselves in a few days,
defeated; because we're trying to do it in ourselves. It'll
never work. We must meet God's program, word by
word, letter by letter.

See, anything that you try to do, the intellectual
mind is so contrary to the Spirit. The intellectual mind
thinks it has to be smart and wise. The Holy Spirit is
humble. Break down all you ever knowed and walk
sweet and humble before the Lord, loving Him with all
your heart, with all your mind, and with all your
strength. There's where the Holy Spirit works.

THE.INDICTMENT
388 Here recently I was going to just quit
preaching. The people wouldn't hear me. They just kept
on doing the same thing, I got discouraged. I built a
complex. O God! A couple Sundays ago, when You give me
that sign out there, reading a Bible, You told Moses, just
as that dream was, that there was a mountain, and would
be a sign to him. And then right at the end of it, to know
that I had left a lot of sick people; a ministry not only in
the prophetic, but in teaching the Word, and for praying
for the sick. You let a man drop dead right here in the
floor, then brought him back to life, for confirmation that it
was true. You always confirm Your Word.

RESTORATION.OF.BRIDE.TREE
2-8 And many times we hit little strains, and I know
you do too, little disappointments. But think of them I have,
the disappointments, when sick mothers on the phone saying,
"Well, wait just a minute, Bro. Branham. Lord Jesus, I pray that
You'll send him." And just hung up the phone from another
one, all around the world. And that's not easy when somebody
on the end of the phone with a sick baby, or a dying wife…
Now, you could imagine; no wonder I'm a neurotic. But
I have done this one thing: instead of getting a complex, I've
tried to hold steady by keeping my eyes on Calvary and
moving on, just as He would have me to do. And many of my
mistakes... I pray that God will forgive me of things, that
maybe I should have went one place and didn't go. I'm just
human and subject to mistakes.

GETTING.IN.THE.SPIRIT
104 ... Now, please don't move around. You don't
realize , what did the Angel of the Lord say? "If you get
the people to believe you." And then when I say, "Set
still." And you don't do it, what does it do? It throws it
right back in my face. Satan says, "See, they don't
believe you."
…Jesus put all of them out of the house one time.
See, I'm trying to be both evangelist and a seer. And you
can't do that. I'll either go to the woods and be a seer and
come in stomping with my message and go back out, or
either lay it aside… let me preach the Gospel, and be an
evangelist.

30 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and
said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well
able to overcome it. 31 But the men that went up with
him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for
they are stronger than we. 32 And they brought up an evil
report of the land which they had searched unto the
children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we
have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the
inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it
are men of a great stature. 33 And there we saw the
giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we
were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in
their sight.

them out here, let them live with somebody… I can take
my boy, let him be out for a day with somebody; let me
come in, I can almost tell you who he's been with.
Certainly. That environment, that spirit catches him.
You go into Pentecostal churches.... Oh, they run
and jerk their head back and forth, the pastor does;
watch the whole church begin to do the same thing. Let
the people, get up and just carry on terrible; watch the
whole thing do that. Get into a place where the pastor's
real starchy and cold; watch the whole group do it. You
come into that environment.

Self-Confidence:
“If I could draw a picture that symbolized adults
with low-self confidence, I would draw a bowed, weary
traveler. Over his shoulder I would place the end of a
mile-long chain attached to tons of scrap iron, old tires,
and garbage of all sorts. Each piece of junk is inscribed
with details of some humiliation, failure, embarrassment,
or rejection from the past.
He could let go of the chain and free himself from the
heavy load which immobilizes him but he is convinced it
must be dragged through his life. Paralyzed by it’s weight,
he plods onward, digging a furrow in the earth as he goes.
He could free himself by just letting go of the chain.

FAITH.IS.THE.SUBSTANCE
5 This is a great sacrifice for me to be here, friends.
I have a home, a family. And I'm new; I'm just a baby in
the work. This is just a few months since the gift of
healing came to me. I don't own my home. I just live in
two rooms in a little "L" cottage. My wife packs water for
somewhat, almost a half a city block... I've been offered
wonderful homes in different cities where they tell me,
"I'll build you a home worth five thousand dollars, just
give it to you.“ Friends, it isn't money with me. I wish I
never even had to think about it. And that's the reason
that many of you send, you offer me your gifts; I don't
take them. Because it's not your finance; I want your
confidence.

29 But we find here that God in spite of all the
failure that Moses had done, He still had His hand on
him. And He called him to go, do His service, calling him
to his commission. And what a consolation that must've
been to Joshua, when he heard God say, "As I was with
Moses, so will I be with you."
Although if I'm trying and I fail, God won't leave
me. I don't have much confidence in anybody that's too
afraid to do anything. I'd rather be found a failure than
too lazy to try.

IDENTIFICATION
52 "In the beginning was God." He wasn't even
God then… And in Him was attributes, and those
attributes were thoughts. And those thoughts was
expressed to Words, and Word was made manifest.
53 What is it? It's all God, becoming tangible,
and you are a part of God. And Jesus come to redeem
those that was put on the Lamb's Book of Life,
before the foundation of the world. It was in God's
thoughts, and that's what He come to redeem. And
them, as soon as It strikes to them, they see It, because
the Life is in there.
54 But if the Life isn't in there, then what can
they do? See? They don't see It. They'll never see It.

55 And the whole thing, as Jesus said, "At that day,
you'll know that I'm in the Father, the Father in Me; I in
you, and you in Me." The whole thing is God, becoming
material. Like a husband and wife becoming one,
together, God and His Church becoming One.

house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou
art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?
15 Then Esther bade them return Mordecai this
answer, 16 Go, gather together all the Jews that are
present in Shushan, and fast ye for me, and neither eat nor
drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will
fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, which is not
according to the law: and if I perish, I perish.
