Question

What should a person do when symptoms come back after they have been prayed for?

Answer

Now, God help us tonight to believe. Help us to lay aside every shadowy weight, and just move right in now with perfect virgin, unadulterated faith, Lord, and be healed, every one. For we ask it in His Name. Amen. [Blank spot on tape—Ed.] Symptoms arise, see it’s all by feeling then. Next morning when the symptoms arise, you say, “Oh, I—I’ve lost my healing. That’s the way it is.” See, but when you know where you’re standing, you got a platform. You can reach right back to Jesus said to Satan, “It is written…” It ain’t according to your feelings. Jesus never did say, “Did you feeled it?” He said, “Did you believe it?” Believe it, accept it, believe it. Brother Bosworth, I guess you’re just as much of a veteran as there is in the United States on Divine healing. Is that the truth? That’s the truth, isn’t it? The way that Divine healing is, you have to believe it by the Word of God. Now, last night I believe we called up to fifty, last night. Was that right? I believe it was up to fifty. Now, let’s start from fifty and go the other way tonight. And that just makes it equal each way. All right, and tomorrow night, if the good Lord will, and I’m going to find out about this report here. I’m going to do this if I possibly can in the next two—two or three meetings that I have; I’m going to try to throw my whole life right into the meetings, and—for I got two days of rest before starting in Zion. [Blank spot on tape—Ed.]… Tribune packed two or three pages of it, you remember it…?…I believe the “Colliers” packed an article of it or something of that meeting. There it was, that there wasn’t a feeble one left. Now, if you tonight can get in that same spiritual attitude. All with one accord, the Spirit moving, and every person, oh something’s just got to happen. All right, maybe a little later I can tell you about what lit—what things that happen to me. Something later on see, I know just now. I…Do—do you believe me? With… Now how many have seen that picture there of the Angel of the Lord. Has seen it now, and read the copyright on it, and everything and what George J. Lacy…Now the books is right back there, if you wish them. And you can send and get a picture of it if you wan…Have to send to the Douglas Studios ’cause I haven’t got nothing to do with it. That belongs to the American Photographers Association. I have nothing to do with it, see. And there is for the first time in all the world’s history, a supernatural Being photographed on a mechanical lens. Think of it, that’s the best FBI agent there is on fingerprint and so forth, that researched it. The best there is in the United States; he signed his name to it. There’s a photostatic copy, that absolutely the light was standing there, “and is not psychology,” he said. The light was standing there whirling, and the light struck the negative. There you are, so the science can’t say today…That infidel says, “There is no God. Prove to me there is a God.” I can produce the scientific evidence there is a God…?…Scientifically prove it. Amen. Oh, ho—wha—how happy I am. If I was dying right here in this building right now, and this would be my last service, my testimony is true. The church knows it, millions, many millions of people around the world. And how they searched in and tried; and agnostics, and unbelievers, and science, and laws, and everything else has went through it everywhere and tried to tear it apart, and every time God comes right back and vindicates it in power. And then the scientific world went in to find it and God pictured it yonder and showed it to him. And there they are tonight and stands as a memorial to ring out as long as there’s a Christian civilization. There it is, hanging yonder now in Washington, DC. What do I say about it? I am a man. If you’ll notice in the write-up, I had that put in there. The picture cannot be sold without that. I am not nothing but just a man, like you are; a sinner saved by grace. But it—what it is that I’m trying to tell you what is truth; that Jesus Christ purchased your healing every one of you at Calvary, and He’s right now already got your healing ready for you. It’s ready to hand to you when you’ll reach up and get it. Oh how simple, how wonderful! And the Angel of God Who I speak of, isn’t standing three feet from me now. Now, that is true, surely I couldn’t tell you nothing wrong. Surely God has proven to you that my words are truth. Not because I’m saying them, but because they are true, see. He’s near, right now. Now He is God’s messenger, I’m just His mouthpiece. I only say what He tells me. All right, everyone be reverent. Now lady, I want you to come up here just a little closer. I get this microphone down. [Brother Branham adjusts microphone—Ed.] Can you hear me when I’m standing back this way? Can you hear good?…?…There’s something wrong, maybe I get this up a little bit closer here. Can you hear better now? [Audience says “Yes.”—Ed.] All right, that’s fine. Now, sometimes…now Billy, or some of you watch. It’s—if it gets anointing and I get away, well you move it up close, see. When you’re in a vision you can’t tell what you’re talking abou…you know you’re talking. But you can’t know just how loud you’re talking or something, you just…I—I just can’t explain it. But now, lady, I—you are Christian. I see that now, see, just as soon as you walked forward. If you wasn’t, there would be a resentment there, see and I’d know that you wasn’t a Christian; or something in your life that was holding you back, some evil something that in your soul, something that you could correct in some way. But it’s…I believe that you are a—a Christian, or your sin’s under the Blood. And I…If it wasn’t, in His Presence now it would be different. See? I’d say, “Now, there’s something wrong, somewhere.” But no doubt, but what you’re a sincere believer. And now, I’m your brother. I—I know nothing about you, never seen you in my life. I couldn’t know one thing about you; it’s all just has to be come down from God.
