Brothers and sisters from Dar es Salaam Church singing in Chalinze church

The first song can be roughly translated as follows  "In the past, not knowing the truth I walked in darkness, I thought I was seeing but I was blind. I searched for and found a denomination and thought I have arrived but it was all in vain and feeding on air. I met the message and the evening messenger, Malachi 4:5-6,  Revelation 10:1-7. The word of God is true, where eaglets are gathered, is where if you look you will see a caucus. The grey horse is the horse of death and only the eaglets can face it. And now I know everything is finished, seven seals seven ages, everything is perfect".
From L to R: Bro Joshua Lighton, Joshua M, Sis Joshua Lighton, sis Jane, sis Joshua M, Sis Shalom, Sis Chitedze



Stay blessed Joshua

MIRACLES PERFORMED AND UNFAITHFULNESS EXPOSED


On Jan 23, 1950, Pearry Green, along with his parents and family, attended a gospel campaign service at the Sam Houston Coliseum, Houston, TX.  William Branham was to be the principal speaker.  

Pearry was just 16 years of age and the events of that night would change his life in a way he could never have expected.

When Brother Branham came to the platform, his first words to the audience were, "Good evening friends."  It was spoken in such a personal way that Pearry thought he was speaking directly to him.  He raised from his seat eleven rows back and moved up near the pulpit, all the while expecting Brother Branham to have something to say to him personally.

Instead, Brother Branham spoke briefly to the audience and then called the prayer line.

The pulpit was on a platform some four feet above the auditorium floor and although there were about 100 sick people nearby on army cots and improvised wheelchairs, Pearry found himself in an ideal position to see all that took place on the platform.

The patients lined up to Brother Branham's right and the first person to come across the platform was a seven year old boy who reportedly had been born blind.  Brother Branham laid his hands on the boy and prayed, "Lord if you were here, you'd suffer little children and you'd pray for them and they'd be healed" and with that, the little boy began to look around as if he could see.

A finger was held up and the boy followed it around.  A handkerchief was offered to him and he reached out and took it.  The microphone cord was raised and he stepped over the cord and Pearry began to think, 'Well, that's wonderful, but how do I know the boy was blind?' 

About that time, Brother Branham said "Run back to your Daddy now" and the little boy turned to face the audience of over 10,000 people. 

In the meantime, a man had come forward and was standing right beside Pearry as he called the boy's name.  The boy ran off the platform and jumped into the man's arms.  The man had on a red necktie and the boy began to play with it and tears began to fall from the man's eyes.  Pearry thought, 'If the boy was not blind, then that man sure is a good actor.'  By this time, the little boy had seen the tears and began to touch them with his fingers.  Then he began to touch the man's face with his hands just like a little blind boy would do to identify his Daddy.  Then he threw his arms around his fathers neck. His father started crying as the boy looked over his fathers shoulder right into Pearry's face! 

Pearry Green knew he had seen a miracle and it changed his life.  He had gone to church from nine years of age and seen many sicknesses prayed for but this was the first miracle he had witnessed.  It left him standing there in shock.

The next patient was a young woman in her mid twenty's. She came holding a boy in her arms that had been born with club feet.  He was only 6 years old and couldn't walk because he didn't have any feet.  Brother Branham took the boy in his arms and asked the woman to remove the boy's stockings. Pearry could see he just had stubs for feet.

Brother Branham asked the audience to bow their heads while he prayed.  Pearry bowed his head too, but peered out from beneath his eyebrows to see what would happen.  Evidently he was not the only one to do so because in the middle of his prayer, Brother Branham appeared to drop the child and a gasp went up from the audience.  Pearry watched in awe as he saw two new feet created right in front of his eyes.  He would never forget that moment as long as he lived.

Another young woman came before Brother Branham who then turned and reminded the audience that he had told them that they should repent of their sins and confess them to God to put them under the Blood of Christ before they come to the platform because he would not be responsible for what was said under discernment.  He then turned back to the woman and said "Young lady, you have been unfaithful to your husband!"  

The audience became deathly quiet except for one young man, about halfway back in the auditorium.  He screamed and began to run to the platform.  The ushers tried to stop him but Brother Branham said to them, "That's her husband, let him come."  When the man got within 10 feet of the pulpit, Brother Branham said to him, "And what about you and your red headed secretary last Friday night in a motel room?"  The young man stopped in his tracks.

Brother Branham then told them, "You two have not sinned against God, you've sinned against each other.  You have violated your marriage vows.  What you need to do is go round behind that curtain there and apologize to each other; renew your vows and go home and be faithful to each other."

GOD IS CONCERNED WITH YOUR DESIRES AND AFFLICTIONS -HE ONCE MADE SALTY WELL WATER SWEET



Well Water Made Sweet

Roy Roberson was a veteran of WWII and first met William Branham in Jan 1950 in Houston TX.

Later he built a new home in Jeffersonville, IN., the city where Branham Tabernacle was located.  The house site was on the edge of town in an area without city water supplies. 

Roy and his wife dug for ground water but to their dismay, when the pump was commissioned, the water was very salty and it remained so.  The impurities reacted with the copper pipes in the house so they couldn't use the water at all. 
Brother Branham came to visit and as soon as he tasted the water, he said to Roy that they would have to pray about the water because it was not fit to use and something had to be done.  However, he left the matter at that and spoke no more about it before he left their home.

A week or two later, Brother Branham went to Connersville, IN., to conduct a healing service and so Roy and his wife and all their friends from the Branham Tabernacle travelled there to attend the service.

The meeting was able to be held in the open on a baseball field because it was summer time.  Roy and his wife got seats in the bleachers about 500 yards from where Brother Branham was but they were able to listen to the service through a loudspeaker system.  

Brother Branham called Sister Roberson out under discernment and told her that the Light (the Pillar of Fire), was hanging over her head.  He said that she was worried about the well that had been dug at the new house but then assured her, "Don't worry about that well, it'll be alright when you get back home."

The Roberson's returned home to find the water had become, 'as sweet and pure as the water from any well there ever was'.   

Years later and long after the home had been sold,  the new owners confirmed that the well water was still as sweet as ever.  A neighbor's well that had only ever produced water with a heavy sulphur content was still the same and the water in the rest of the neighborhood remained bad too.  The water at the Roberson's former home was the only natural sweet water in the area.
