1-1 Thank you, brother. God bless you. Just remain standing a moment while we bow our heads for prayer.
1-2 Gracious heavenly Father, we are approaching Thee again this morning for mercy and for guidance of the Holy Spirit today, as it's dawned upon us that we should meet together this morning, and to teach Thy Word, and that we might know how to live in this present day, and what is the time of day that we're living. We'd ask Thy holy guidance to our thoughts, our hearts today, that You would direct us to every word that is necessary for us to know; that You'd open our mouths freely and our hearts also to receive and--that which You would speak to us, and would close our mouths to the things that are not right, knowing that only You can reveal the Word of God.
And now, as I have to leave the little church right away now for the other parts of the world, I'm committing them to Thee, Lord, which they are part, the apple of my heart--as to say. They are the--the ones that's been begotten to You by the Spirit and by the Word of truth. I pray that You'll bless them, Lord, and keep them closely knitted together by the bonds of the love of Christ.
1-4 Bless our dear beloved pastor, the shepherd. We pray that You'll anoint him with the Holy Spirit of Thy Word and reveal to them and feed the flock.
And once... Just awhile ago when You showed the vision that the little tabernacle here... But to store up the food, that there would come a time when this would all be needed... When we seen Brother Sothmann and Brother Wood ready to cross over into another country to... But You said, "Store up this food here for the time." Lord, reverently I've tried to do that.
And now, this morning in this lesson that we have thought of, I pray that You'll cap it all off, Lord, to show that You're God, and this is Your Word and Your Truth. Grant it, Lord, that the people might feed thereon and grow fat as it was in the grace of God, that they'd see that it's God's great mercy to us in this day. Bless all that's present and those who would like to be present, Father, and get glory to Thyself; for we ask it in Jesus' Name. Amen.
2-1 The Lord bless each and every one of you now. And I believe just before we start, we have a little baby here--Collins. I met the father just a few moments ago, and--and he had a little baby he wanted dedicated; and we want to do that now, if Brother or Sister Collins, one, will bring the little one forward so we can have the dedicational service for this little fellow.
2-2 Leaving, you know, why, it causes... As these are loyal members or--of the Body of Christ... You notice, I never said of the Tabernacle--of the bodies of Christ, this body here, part of His body. And they got a little fellow here they want dedicated. And this is always a job I think my--my wife envies me of: to hold the babies. Brother Neville, if you'll come forward, if you will.
2-2a [Brother Branham conducts dedicational service--Ed.] What is your first name, brother? This is Brother and Sister Clyde Collins; he's the brother to our precious brother here, Reverend Collins, Wilbur. And they've had a increase in the Collinses here; I see, and a very cute little fellow. How old is he, Sister Collins? Almost four months. And what's his name? Mark David. That's a very fine name. And he look like a very fine boy. Say, he's kind of a big boy too.
