Smiles

Brother Branham said that God has a sense of humor, and as you will soon read, so do His children. Here are a few testimonies that will put a smile on your face.

He’s Speaking To Everyone

I heard a story once that two men listened to a tape together. After it was through, one man said, "I don't like that preaching, he called me a buzzard.” And the other guy said, “Oh yeah, well he called me an eagle.”

All Things Are Possible

I have a dog named Zam. He is very rebellious. I have to always keep him confined because he really bothers the neighbors and if sees any other dog, he pursues it and fights. But it made me uncomfortable to see him confined for days until one day God spoke to my heart to talk with him. I told him, "If you do not fight anymore or bother the neighbors, I promise to let you free." And in my thoughts I said that if he did that no more, I would tell my testimony on the website, but almost knowing that the way he was, it was almost impossible to change. After the conversation, I let him go.

I was traveling and came home, he was still loose. My sister came and told me, “I do not know what happened to your dog that is so quiet and without fighting." It was then that I remembered the conversation and, thank God, he is every day better and docile. I'm glad that God is always waiting for us to ask, even if it is something simple.

Strange And Mysterious Ways

I started a new job, and by the grace of God, I really like it. But there was one thing I could not get used to, and I believe every Christian should hate: radio. There is one in each department of the factory, so you hear it everywhere. So I began to pray the Lord to stop the radio in my department.

It took five months for the Lord answer my prayer, but he did unexpectedly. Someone stole it!

So for about two months I sing songs from the Lord while working, instead of the radio. Thank you Lord! He always answers prayers, but also in a way that we do not always expect.

Spiritual Food

I've been thinking lately about that testimony of the cow that changed after eating the Message book and I confess I've been thinking about my siblings along the same lines :) One thing's for sure, they do need to experience the same change that the cow experienced.

A Fitting End

I've often said, "Satan, you're going to fry in hell like a chicharrón!"

(That’s the Spanish word for fried pork rind)

Zeal!

…Yeah, I'm excited cause I know who I am. I'm Mr. Jubilee and Mrs. Jesus Christ, praising the Lord’s works in His Bride. Yes the time is at hand.

I'm a zealot for my Lord! Praise Him and Bless His seed!

God Bless You!

Always Listening

I usually have Brother Branham playing while I am falling asleep. If the devil has my mind racing, then I just turn up the message louder. This morning my alarm was about to go off for the 3rd time and I hear Brother Branham say, “it's time to get up!” Like everything else, he was right!

USA

What is it? The alarm went off, and you turned over and shut the alarm off; you want to sleep a little longer. The morning cometh, but night cometh first. Don't turn the alarm off; let it alarm. Jump to your feet; it's time to get up.

Prayer Cloth

I too was once afflicted, though not by a sickness, but a tiny little insect called the bedbug. My wife, daughter, and I went to some meetings years ago and came back home with these tiny guest in our luggage, unknown to us until it too late.

At the advice of another believer who once had the same problem, we put all of our clothes and sheets in plastic bags (one month instead of three weeks) and washed our clothes in hot water. This did not work, because at about a month later, my wife and daughter started itching again, and this time I woke up at night and saw one with my own eyes. And found the nests and sprayed them.

Still they would not go away. Finally out of frustration and not knowing what to do, I pinned a prayer cloth to our mattress. No more bedbugs. At least until we thought it was safe, and removed the prayer cloth.

Then they came back. I asked my wife if we had removed the Prayer Cloth, but she could not remember. So I checked and saw it was gone. Then I put it back... and since then, no more bedbugs…

Your brother in Christ.

From Genesis To Revelation

Somebody shared this with me and it indeed made me smile.

Our journey began at Genesis through Exodus. On the way, we saw Leviticus recording the Numbers of people at Deuteronomy, while Joshua was waiting at the beautiful gate for Judges to see Ruth calling loudly "Samuel, Samuel." At a stage, the first and second Kings of Chronicles were coming to visit Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther for the misfortune of Job, their brother.

Then they noticed that Mr. Psalms was teaching his children Proverbs concerning Ecclesiastes and Songs of Solomon. This coincided with the period that Isaiah and Jeremiah were engaged in Lamentation for Ezekiel and Daniel their friend. By that time, Amos and Obadiah were not around. Three days later, Hosea, Joel, and Jonah traveled in the same ship with Micah and Nahum to Jerusalem.

More also, Habakkuk visited Zephaniah who introduced him to Haggai a friend of Zechariah whose cousin is Malachi. Immediately after the old tradition, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John got involved in Acts with the Romans who were behaving like the Corinthians, who were also always at loggerhead with the Galatians. At that time too, the Ephesians realizing that the Philippians were close to the Colossians, suggested to the Thessalonians that they should first of all see Timothy who had gone to the house of Titus to teach Philemon his younger brother how to read and write Hebrew. On hearing, James asked Peter to explain to him how the three Johns have disclosed to Jude the Revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
