“LISTEN TO INSPIRATION. IT’S

THE HOLY SPIRIT SPEAKING

AND MAKING A WAY.”

“DON’T NEVER TURN IT DOWN”

56-0128 - _*INSPIRATION*_

But INSPIRATION SPOKE. And if

INSPIRATION’D speak to you and say that

you’ve been playing church, if INSPIRATION

tells you tonight it’s time to get rid of your dirty

habits, *listen to INSPIRATION. It’s the Holy

Spirit speaking and making a way. Don’t never

turn it down*, if it’s anything… *Unless it’s

contrary to God’s Word.* And anything that you

do clean and righteous is—is in accordance with

God’s Word. It’s in accord. Amen. No matter

what the people think, what others say, *it’s the

inspiration leading you, if it’s according to the

Word.* And if it’s according to the Word then

the inspiration is a leading you.

“Reasonings will say it’s not so, but

INSPIRATION says it is so,”

“INSPIRATION from the soul not from the

mind.”


INSPIRATION tells you that. Reasonings will

say it’s not so, but INSPIRATION says it is so,

*INSPIRATION from the soul not from the

mind.*

*"when that INSPIRATION is on"*

51-0502 - _*THE ANGEL OF THE LORD*_

5 Now, you meet me on the street and say,

_“Brother Branham, what about…”_ I probably

know nothing about that. But now, on the

platform when someone meets me, then I—it’s

not me that’s speaking. When you hear my voice

speaking *when that INSPIRATION is on*, I—

I have no more control of that than you know

what you’re going to say next New Year’s day.

I—I do not have no control of that; *It speaks

Itself. It’s my voice, and I’m listening to myself

talk* just as you’re listening to me now talk. I

hear myself, what It says to the people. And—

and then I know then… Sometimes take a hold of

their hand, I’ll wait there, and after while I’ll hear

what It speaks, just hear myself speak, talking to

the people. *It’s a very strange feeling.*

“IF WE COULD ONLY RECOGNIZE that

by INSPIRATION THAT LEADS US”

“IN THE CRUCIAL MOMENT TO MAKE OUR

DECISION ACCORDING TO the WORD OF GOD”


And *if we could only recognize that by

INSPIRATION THAT LEADS US* to the—

make the— *in the crucial moment to make our

decision according to the Word of God*, not

according to what the neighbors is going think or

according to what somebody else is going to say,

or what my pastor will say, or my members will

say, what my neighbors will say, *but what God

is leading you to.*


of 41

“The INSPIRATION* that’s *led you to

Christ”

“don’t worry, *SOME MORNING IT’LL PAY OFF.

IT’LL PAY OFF.”


*The INSPIRATION* that’s *led you to

Christ* and you come *through many dangers

toils and snares*, don’t worry, *some morning

it’ll pay off. It’ll pay off.* JESUS WILL COME.

WE’D BE CAUGHT UP WITH HIM IN THE AIR.

*"when the INSPIRATION was on him, HE

JUST DEFIED EVERYTHING THAT WAS

UNGODLY."*

*"when the INSPIRATION left him, run from

the threat of one woman"*

*"you don’t understand, friend."*

53-0509 - _*THE PILLAR OF FIRE*_

7d And *when the INSPIRATION was on him,

he—he just defied everything that was ungodly.*

And then *when the INSPIRATION left him,

run from the threat of one woman, and run out

into the wilderness;* and God fed him, and woke

him up and fed him again. And the man was

unconscious, as far as I know, wandering around

the wilderness for forty days and nights, and God

found him back in a cave. Is that right? So you

see, *you don’t understand, friend.* Men pray

for things that they don’t know what they’re

praying for. Besides gifts and callings are

without repentance.

8 But *I believe that we’re living in the days just

before the coming of the Lord.* Now, if it’s


of 41

fanaticism to believe that, then I am a fanatic. But

I… *Friends, I know this*, that I believe that

*God is fixing to do a real hurrying work.*

*"But WHEN HE SPEAKS THAT

INSPIRATION"*

*"IT NEVER FAILS."*

52-0717 - _*GET THE PEOPLE TO BELIEVE*_

*I never seen it to fail. See? It never will. IT

CAN’T FAIL.*

Now, I can fail, ’cause I’m a man. *BUT WHEN

HE SPEAKS THAT INSPIRATION,* that will

always be just that way. See? And *IT NEVER

FAILS.*


of 41

“I AM GOD’S VOICE TO YOU. SEE?”

“I FELT BAD ABOUT IT THE FIRST TIME, *BUT

IT REPEATED IT.”

51-0505 - _*MY COMMISSION*_

40b But *I am God’s Voice to you. See?* I say

that again. *That time was under

INSPIRATION. See?* And I—I felt bad about

it the first time, *but It repeated it.*

Now see, I CAN SAY NOTHING IN MYSELF. But

WHAT HE SHOWS ME, I SAY IT. You BELIEVE IT

AND WATCH WHAT HAPPENS. See, He did. After

setting in great meetings…

PROPHET TIES INSPIRATION

TO 5-FOLD MINISTRY:

53-0601 - _*WHATEVER HE SAYS TO YOU, DO

IT*_

14b *WE DON’T PREACH. The HOLY SPIRIT

DOES THE SPEAKING.* Oh, WE MIGHT WRITE

OUT SOMETHING AND READ IT, but that—THAT

ISN’T PREACHING. *PREACHING is WHEN

INSPIRATION COMES* and (See?)—and

*IT’S PREACHED BY INSPIRATION and

the HOLY SPIRIT GIVES THE UNCTION.*

Now, WE CAN READ SOMETHING, and it just

DOESN’T MATTER, *BUT WHEN the HOLY

SPIRIT GETS A HOLD OF IT and TAKES IT OUT TO

THE PEOPLE, THEN SOMETHING TAKES A HOLD.

See?* And THAT’S THE HOLY SPIRIT. *That’s

NOT YOUR PASTOR PREACHING; THAT’S the

HOLY SPIRIT PREACHING IN YOUR PASTOR OUT

TO YOU, GIVING THE MESSAGE.*

15 Well then, *somebody SPEAKS UNDER

INSPIRATION*. That— *he doesn’t know

what he’s saying.* Another man INTERPRETS


of 41

UNDER INSPIRATION, and directs the

message straight to someone and tells them

where their trouble, what’s happened, and—and

different things to do. *THAT’S ALL

INSPIRATION. IT’S THE HOLY SPIRIT.*

Then He—HE SENDS THOSE GIFTS INTO THE

CHURCH. *PASTOR, PREACHER, TEACHING,

APOSTLES, PROPHETS, and all those things are

GIFTS OF GOD, that GOES TOGETHER FOR the

PERFECTING OF THE CHURCH*, or the SAINTS

then. It all is *ONE BIG UNIT OF GOD.*

53-0608A - _*DEMONOLOGY, PHYSICAL

REALM*_

*WHEN GOD TELLS YOU ANYTHING ON THIS

PLATFORM*, through His Spirit, when *UNDER

INSPIRATION, DON’T YOU DOUBT THAT, OR

a WORSE THING WILL COME UPON YOU*, HE

SAID.


of 41

“IT’S the INSPIRATION OF THE LORD what

BRINGS US UP TO THE HEALING.”

“It’s the INSPIRATION OF IT BRINGS YOU up

TO THAT PLACE WHERE YOU SEE WHAT GOD’S

A DOING… HIS PRESENCE IS THERE.”

53-0609E - _*MAKE THE VALLEY FULL OF

DITCHES*_

*"It’s the INSPIRATION of it BRINGS YOU UP

TO THAT PLACE WHERE YOU SEE WHAT GOD’S

A DOING… HIS PRESENCE IS THERE."*

2b And he said, _“Brother Branham, we don’t

want a prayer card. We just wants to watch:

*IT’S the INSPIRATION OF THE LORD what

BRINGS US UP TO THE HEALING.”*_ That man’s

RIGHT. UH-HUH. He’s got the idea. That’s JUST

WHAT IT TAKES. You SEE? *It’s the

INSPIRATION OF IT BRINGS YOU up TO THAT

PLACE WHERE YOU SEE WHAT GOD’S A

DOING… HIS PRESENCE IS THERE.*

“I just *HAVE TO PREACH BY

INSPIRATION.”

“When I *see it coming*, I just *reach and grab

it*, and *throw it out to the people.”

53-0831 - _*GOD TALKED TO MOSES*_

70b I just *HAVE TO PREACH BY

INSPIRATION.* When I *see it coming*, I just

*reach and grab it*, and *throw it out to the

people.*


of 41

*"ALWAYS, DO JUST WHAT the

INSPIRATION SAYS DO."*

53-0907E - _*HEALING LINE*_

25b See? It’s *ALWAYS, DO JUST WHAT the

INSPIRATION SAYS DO.*

*"THERE’S A DIFFERENT ANOINTING...WHEN

YOU’RE UNDER THE INSPIRATION.*

53-1111 - _*PREPARATION*_

1b ’cause *THERE’S A DIFFERENT ANOINTING*

WHEN YOU’RE SPEAKING ON THE WORD here

*AND when YOU’RE UNDER THE

INSPIRATION.*

Now, LET ME EXPLAIN IT one more time *SO

that YOU’LL THOROUGHLY UNDERSTAND.*

Gifts and callings are without repentance. Do you

know that? You can never make yourself

something that you’re not. See? YOU’RE BORN

IN THIS WORLD SOVEREIGNLY BY GOD WITH

DIFFERENT THINGS TO DO. You *TAKE A MAN

THAT WANTS TO BE A PREACHER* and goes off

to GET HIMSELF AN EDUCATION. He will NEVER

MAKE A PREACHER. He *MIGHT MAKE A

LECTURER, BUT PREACHERS ARE BORNED.

GOD CALLS PREACHERS.* That’s right. See?


of 41

*"I ONLY SPEAK BY INSPIRATION"*

53-1129A - _*THE FAITH THAT WAS ONCE

DELIVERED TO THE SAINTS*

53b *I ONLY SPEAK BY INSPIRATION*, and

*INSPIRATION is just when you find it here,

YOU GRAB IT AND HAND IT OUT.* It’s over here;

*YOU REACH AND GET IT AND HAND IT OUT.* It

*MAY BE IN THE OLD-FASHION, SASSAFRAS

WAY, BUT IT’LL DO YOU GOOD IF YOU’LL KEEP

IT.* That’s right. Is that *IT’LL STICK TO YOUR

RIBS AND HOLD YOU.* IT *SAVED ME, and IT’LL

SAVE YOU.*

*"HOW DID THEY GET THEIR INSPIRATION

then to preach from?"*

54-0228A - _*EXPECTATION*_

24b ... *HOW DID THEY GET THEIR

INSPIRATION then TO PREACH FROM?* If

there’s not a *gift of preaching*, then

ACCORDING TO THAT, EVERY PERSON’S A

PREACHER. *BUT the BIBLE SAID, _“GOD HAS

SET SOME IN THE CHURCH (God has)

APOSTLES, PROPHETS, TEACHERS,

EVANGELISTS,”_* and so forth, all in the Church.

*GOD has SET THEM IN THERE. And THEY’RE

INSPIRED FOR a CERTAIN WORK.*

And then some people may possess more than

one gift. But there’d at least be one gift or more

in a person. And THEN ALL THESE THINGS

TOGETHER, *WORKING TOGETHER, FOR THE

UP-BUILDING OF THE BODY OF CHRIST,

GETTING HER READY TO GO.*


of 41

*"it’s NOT A PRACTICE of something. IT’S

ABSOLUTELY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IN HIS

RESURRECTED POWER."*

*"IT’S INSPIRATION."*

*"I will NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR CRITICS OR

UNBELIEVERS from THIS PART OF THE

MEETING ON OUT TO THE END."*

54-0331 - _*THE RESURRECTION OF JAIRUS'

DAUGHTER*_

51b Remember, to you Christian people, these

things are terrible, and *IT’S NOT A PRACTICE OF

SOMETHING. IT’S ABSOLUTELY THE LORD

JESUS CHRIST IN HIS RESURRECTED POWER.

As a POWER GIVEN TO THE PEOPLE*, NOT TO

HEAL, *BUT TO PREACH, TEACH… It’s ALL

UNDER INSPIRATION.* None of you ministers

setting here would want to say you just, _“No

such a thing as INSPIRATION.”_ You wouldn’t

want to say you preached your sermon for, by

yourself. YOU ASK GOD TO HELP YOU. *IT’S

INSPIRATION.* Why couldn’t your brother or

somebody next to you PREACH JUST THE SAME

AS YOU CAN? He WASN’T CALLED FOR IT; YOU

WERE THE ONE WAS CALLED. Doesn’t make you

any better than he is, if he’s a Christian. BUT

GOD SET YOU FOR A PREACHER, maybe him for

a lay member. SEE? _*“GOD SET IN THE

CHURCH…”*_

And now, in these things, *I SAY THIS NOW

BECAUSE IT’S A STATE LAW IN MOST THE

STATES, that I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR

CRITICS OR UNBELIEVERS FROM THIS PART OF

THE MEETING ON OUT TO THE END.* The Lord

bless you. *I know HIS PRESENCE IS HERE*; the

*ANGEL OF THE LORD IS NEAR; IT’S HERE

NOW.* And you all who have His picture know,

and *YOU’LL SEE AT THE DAY OF JUDGMENT,

HE ISN’T STANDING FIVE FEET FROM WHERE I

AM RIGHT NOW.* That’s right. *IT’S NOT ME;

HE just WALKS IN. I LOSE MYSELF, and HE

SPEAKS*, AND the LORD BLESS[ES] YOU.


of 41

*"IT’S NOT ME UNDER INSPIRATION; it’s

NOT ME. IT’S HIM"*

54-0302 - _*THE RESURRECTION OF JAIRUS'

DAUGHTER*_

50b But WHEN YOU HEAR IT SPEAK OUT,

“THUS SAITH THE LORD,” mark that down

in your book. See what happens. That’s…

See, I have no way… *HE SAID THAT.* WHEN

I’M SPEAKING, *IT’S NOT ME UNDER

INSPIRATION; it’s NOT ME. IT’S HIM*, that—

*THAT PILLAR OF FIRE THAT YOU’VE SEEN IN

THE PICTURE.*

*"I think, _“WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE SO

ROUGH ABOUT IT FOR?”_ But IT ISN’T ME. I

must be obedient; I ONLY SPEAK BY

INSPIRATION. Just as I see it, I GET IT AND

SPEAK IT."*

54-0404M - _*EARNESTLY CONTENDING FOR

THE FAITH*_

20b And then I come, and I THINK I SPEAK TOO

HARSHLY. I go home sometimes… I tell you;

*THIS IS TRUTH. I’VE WENT HOME AND CRIED

ABOUT WHAT I SAID AT THE PLATFORM, BUT I

COULDN’T HELP IT*; SOMETHING just GOT IN

ME and *MADE ME SAY IT.* And *I THINK,

_“WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE SO ROUGH

ABOUT IT FOR?”_ BUT IT ISN’T ME. I must be

obedient; I ONLY SPEAK BY

INSPIRATION. Just as I see it, I GET IT AND

SPEAK IT.* I have no notes, no nothing to preach

from, just God’s Word just the way It lays there.

*That’s all I know. I DEPEND ON THE HOLY

SPIRIT*, not knowing one thing (God knows

that.) what to say this morning; I never take


of 41

thought for what to say. I go to the platform; let

Him do the leading. That’s all. *BUT HE

PROMISED this, _“IF YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH,

I’LL FILL IT.”_* So that… He’s done that now for

twenty-three years. And I’m not weary in the

road. *I TRUST HIM

*"WHEN the CHURCH OF GOD MOVES ON, IN

the POWER OF THE INSPIRATION,

SHE’LL MOVE RIGHT ON AND ON AND ON AND

ON. And no denomination stop It, NOTHING IN

THE WORLD WILL STOP IT."*

*"SPIRITUAL REVEALED TRUTH!"*

54-0515 - _*QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS*_

238b ... *WHEN the CHURCH OF GOD MOVES

ON, IN the POWER OF THE INSPIRATION,

she’ll move right ON and ON and ON AND on. And

NO DENOMINATION STOP IT, NOTHING IN THE

WORLD WILL STOP IT.* “Upon this rock I’ll

build My Church, and THE GATES OF HELL

CANNOT PREVAIL AGAINST IT.” *SPIRITUAL,

REVEALED TRUTH!*

*"When your mind...leading...guiding

BECOMES...A DIRECT INSPIRATION OF

THE HOLY SPIRIT that’s moving your

mortal being! Oh, my!"*

54-1003M - _*THE WORD BECAME FLESH

(INDIA TRIP REPORT)*_

179b *_“YOU SHALL HAVE IT. NOT ME; YOU

shall have it.”_ WHAT POWER HAS BEEN GIVEN

TO THE CHURCH!*

That, now, you can express it by mental

conception…

180 *BUT IF IT BECOMES a REAL REVELATION

of God*, that you see it before it happened, and

express it in word form, *THAT WORD TAKES A

HOLD AND BECOMES MATERIAL*; A THOUGHT

EXPRESSED! Oh, my, how God could…See it?

*YOUR HEART and YOUR MIND is so, and

FILLED WITH GOD’S SPIRIT, UNTIL YOUR

THOUGHTS BECOME HIS THOUGHTS.* Amen.

There you are. *WHEN YOUR MIND*, and YOUR

*LEADING*, and YOUR *GUIDING, BECOMES* a

DIRECT PLACE, OR *a DIRECT

INSPIRATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

THAT’S MOVING YOUR MORTAL

BEING! Oh, my!*

181 *WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE SHOULD WE BE?*

If the *VERY HOLY SPIRIT has YOU SO

EMBODIED, or EMPOWERED, that YOU DON’T

USE YOUR OWN THOUGHTS*, YOU DON’T USE

*YOUR OWN MIND*, YOU DON’T USE *your OWN

OPINIONS*; BUT the HOLY SPIRIT HAS YOU SO

BUILT, *until YOUR THOUGHTS and YOUR

BEING IS GOD’S SPIRIT EXPRESSING ITSELF

THROUGH YOU! What kind of a church would we

be?*


of 41

*"the human mind today, without the

INSPIRATION OF THE HOLY GHOST,

don’t know what compassion means."*

54-1205 - _*WE WOULD SEE JESUS*_

14g The THING OF IT IS, FRIENDS, *the HUMAN

MIND TODAY, WITHOUT the INSPIRATION

OF THE HOLY GHOST, DON’T KNOW WHAT

COMPASSION MEANS.*

*"MIND OF THE WORLD AGAINST the

INSPIRATION OF GOD -- why, it’s

foolishness."*

54-1219M - _*DIVINE HEALING*_

104b Nobody understood It. *EVEN HIS OWN

MOTHER DIDN’T UNDERSTAND HIM.*

105 He was A HARD MAN TO UNDERSTAND,

*BECAUSE He was of God, and their mind was of

the world.* So, He made it altogether different,

then. *A mind of the world against the—the—the

INSPIRATION OF GOD, why, IT’S

FOOLISHNESS.* But the strange thing, that He

had power to do what He said He would do.

That’s where it got. And HE COULD DO THINGS

THAT *OTHER MEN COULDN’T DO.*


of 41

Prophet says they QUESTION THE

INSPIRATION BECAUSE THEY'RE

BORN BLIND...

55-0911 - _*THE UNWELCOMED CHRIST*_

34 And they had a great camera setting up there,

taking the pictures of the meeting, of the—of the

breakfast. And *they was asking about how that

INSPIRATION*…They said, _“Well, *we feel

that it’s some kind of a set-up.* It’s something

another that—that you have. It’s *a mental

telepathy*. That Germans can maybe look on

their cards, or something :another, and they can

transfer that to you.”_

I said, _“Then how does the healing come?”_ I

said, _“Who foretells these things, who, what,

that’s going to come?”_

_“Well,”_ said, _*“maybe that’s mental

telepathy also.”*_

And *I said, _“Then you don’t believe in

God.”_*

_*“Oh, we believe in God, sure.* We believe in

God. *But we don’t…”*_

35 *I said*, _“Brother, you’re— *you’re just

born blind*, that’s all. See? You, *you were born

blind, and I doubt whether you’ll ever receive

your sight, or not.”*_ And I said, _“If… *I’d

rather be physical blind than to be spiritual blind

like that.* Why,”_ I said, _*“you’d be far better

off,* if you were everyone totally blind, had to be

led around by your eyes…by your arms, so you

didn’t have no eyes. Let somebody be your eyes,

to lead you.”_ I said, _*“You’d be far better off.*

But,”_ I said, _*“because you see the things that

prophets has longed to see*. You see the things

that *great men long to see, and still you won’t

believe it.”*_


of 41

*"they picked it up when the INSPIRATION

was on, but that was Him speaking, not me.

See?"*

55-1004 - _*COME, LET US REASON

TOGETHER*_

74b I’ve heard people say, on tape *they picked

it up when the INSPIRATION was on, but that

was Him speaking, not me. See?* Better for Him

to tell you that, than for me to tell you that. See?

More you can believe Him; you got a right to

doubt me.

71 But see, I’ve—I’ve kinda shunned those

things. I’ve kept away from people, because of,

I—I—I don’t like any, somebody say, _“Oh

Brother Branham, this, that.”_ It—it—it—

*don’t even put me into it. See? It’s Jesus Christ,

the Son of God.*

*"Scripture, GIVEN BY INSPIRATION"*

*"It must be INTERPRETED BY

INSPIRATION."*

56-0715 - _*THE MARK OF THE BEAST*_

68b _*“Here it is, child of Mine. This is it. The

world don’t understand this, but ye shall

understand. See?* See? Let it be this way.”_

Then *all Scripture, GIVEN BY

INSPIRATION*, then *It MUST BE

INTERPRETED BY INSPIRATION.* And

then Scripture must compare with Scripture.

*"BY INSPIRATION that Word was spoke*

by God; *BY INSPIRATION the prophet

brought It*; and *BY INSPIRATION we have

to RECEIVE IT."*

*"man in his carnal condition can never

understand It. No way at all. It’s impossible."*

56-0715 - _*THE MARK OF THE BEAST*_

29b Now, *BY INSPIRATION that Word was

spoke* by God; *BY INSPIRATION the

prophet brought It*; and *BY INSPIRATION

we have to RECEIVE IT.* It’s *not a material*.

It’s *not a natural thing*. It’s not a…

30 The carnal mind. Listen. The *man in his

carnal condition can never understand It. No way

at all. It’s impossible.*

*"WHAT WE NEED TODAY is an

INSPIRATION OVER US, God sweeping

down with A NEW INSPIRATION and

breathing over us His POWER, and His LOVE,

and HIMSELF, that it might INSPIRE US to

QUICKEN US and WAKEN US to His

Word."*

56-0930A - _*HEAR YE HIM*_

14 Now, *when a man is INSPIRED* and he

*reads the INSPIRED WORD*, the *TWO

INSPIRATIONS TOGETHER GIVES A

RESULT.* Now, you can never… No matter

how well you study the Word, *It’ll never do you

no good TILL YOU’RE INSPIRED

YOURSELF.* IT *TAKES YOUR

INSPIRATION* with… The *WORD’S

ALREADY INSPIRED.*

So *WHAT WE NEED TODAY is an

INSPIRATION OVER US, God sweeping

down WITH A NEW INSPIRATION and

breathing over us His POWER, and His LOVE,

and HIMSELF, that it might INSPIRE US to


of 41

QUICKEN US and WAKEN US to His Word.*

And *THEN the Word being BROUGHT INTO

that SPIRIT OF INSPIRATION, THEN

YOU'LL SEE MIRACLES happen, and things

take place, BECAUSE the TWO just COMES

TOGETHER.*

*"INSPIRED BELIEVERS taking in the

INSPIRED WORD, those TWO TOGETHER

BRING the RESULTS. It BRINGS THE

WORD TO LIFE."*

56-0930A - _*HEAR YE HIM*_

15b *If our nature becomes converted* from the

things of the world *to the nature of the Holy

Spirit, God will take His stand, and He will abide

on us. INSPIRED BELIEVERS taking in the

INSPIRED WORD, those tWO TOGETHER

*"Got to WAKEN the people, got to BRING US

to Something when the Word is RECEIVED.*

And *THAT'S THE INSPIRATION."*

56-0930A - _*HEAR YE HIM*_

16 And *when* the *Word of God* is *put into

the fertile grounds of the INSPIRED

BELIEVER*, it *PRODUCES just exactly what

God said it would do*, because it can’t fail. It’s

God’s Eternal Word. *GOT TO WAKEN THE

PEOPLE, got to BRING US TO

SOMETHING WHEN the WORD IS

RECEIVED.* And *THAT'S THE

INSPIRATION.*

*"it’s based on your perfect faith* in the

*INSPIRED WORD OF GOD*, and *HOW

YOU’RE INSPIRED TO BELIEVE"*

56-0930A - _*HEAR YE HIM*_

17c But Jesus answered, said, _“Who do *you

say* that I am?”_

See, salvation is *not based upon what someone

else thinks. It’s what you think* of Him. Divine

healing *isn’t based on what the critic says*, or

what the church says; *it’s based on YOUR

PERFECT FAITH IN* THE *INSPIRED

WORD OF GOD*, and *HOW YOU’RE

INSPIRED TO BELIEVE* THAT. *That’s

what brings the results* (see?), is *YOUR

INSPIRATION BY THE WORD.* What does

It do *for you!*

*"If the Word is PUT IN INSPIRATION, then

the RESULTS HAS GOT TO COME."*

the results has got to come.*

_*“UPON THIS INSPIRATION, I will

BUILD MY CHURCH.”*_

56-0930A - _*HEAR YE HIM*_

19c ...they had *nothing but one thing*, and that

was the *Holy Spirit they had received on the day

of Pentecost.* They didn’t need no more, for God

had already said, _*“UPON THIS

INSPIRATION, I WILL BUILD MY

CHURCH.”*_

*"WHEN the GREATEST REVELATION

AND INSPIRATION COMES*, is *when

we’re alone with God."*

*"we would live a better life, more victorious

life in Christ."*

57-0301 - _*BLIND BARTIMAEUS*_

10b Oh, *for those precious hours alone with

God.*

And *it’s there that WHEN the GREATEST

REVELATION AND INSPIRATION

COMES*, is *when we’re alone with God*.

We’d take more time on that, *I’m sure, that we

would live a better life, more victorious life in

Christ.*

*"then the INSPIRATION STRUCK ME."*

*"They’re just beating against the post.* As

long as they do it, *God’s great Church is

moving on and upward, just as hard as it can

do."*

57-0818 - _*TIME-TESTED MEMORIALS OF

GOD*_

98 And *then the INSPIRATION STRUCK

ME.* That’s right. *Men and women who are

trying to beat out the Light of God, are just

beating their brains out.* And, the Light, why

don’t they use It to go to safety, in the stead of

beating your brains out? Try and deny It, and say,

_“The days of miracles is passed. There is no

such a thing as Divine healing, no heart-felt

salvation, these things.”_ *They’re just beating

against the post.* As long as they do it, *God’s

great Church is moving on and upward, just as

hard as it can do.* People rise up and claim to be

this, and that, and fail, and so forth. *But the

Church of God moves on, and the Word of God


of 41

moves on. She is made out of the right kind of

material.*

*"the PREACHER, that can climb in the Spirit,

far beyond anything, go a WAY HIGH IN THE

HEIGHTS OF INSPIRATION."*

*"Oh, how I love to think of that."*

58-0500 - _*THE EAGLE STIRRING HER NEST*_

10b And that’s the way the—the prophet is, *the

PREACHER, that can climb in the Spirit, far

beyond anything, go a WAY HIGH IN THE

HEIGHTS OF INSPIRATION.* A *real

servant of God can climb so high till the normal

mind can’t even follow*, because he’s a *special-

built* bird. *Oh, how I love to think of that.*

*"open to us the INSPIRATION*, Lord, *that

GOES WITH this Word."*

*"may it be to us tonight, a CORRECTION & a

MAKING READY FOR the COMING OF THE

SON OF GOD.*

10b Let us pray. Author of this Book and of

Eternal Life, *OPEN TO US THE

INSPIRATION*, Lord, *THAT GOES WITH

THIS WORD."* And may we *learn to live by

the Word and by the Spirit*. And may it be to us

tonight, *a correction and a making ready for the

coming of the Son of God.*

*"REAL INSPIRATION COMES BY

DOING the WILL OF GOD. See?"*

*It's only through God’s everlasting, Eternal

blessed Word, CAN WE RECEIVE

INSPIRATION"*

58-0720M - _*BY FAITH, MOSES*_

42b Or, we’ve often referred to different

*ministers* who get out on the field and have

*great gatherings of crowds, and we think,

sometimes, that they are the SIGNS OF

INSPIRATION.* But that’s not altogether the

truth. *That’s HUMAN INSPIRATION.*

43 But the *REAL INSPIRATION COMES

BY DOING THE WILL OF GOD. See?

Whether it is one, or just a handful.* Whether it

is a *big church, or a small church, it matters

not.* Whether he is a great, eloquent speaker, or

just a man that hardly knows his ABC’s, it

doesn’t matter. It *depends on the message that

he’s bringing, whether it is INSPIRED by the

Word of God,* or, is it INSPIRED by


of 41

intellectual conceptions of HUMAN

INSPIRATION?

44 *Some people* can be *INSPIRED because

of an eloquent speaker.* That *doesn’t make it

right*. Sometimes they’re *INSPIRED because

the man is so trained* that he could put his point

over. That doesn’t mean that it’s of God. See?

45 It’s *ONLY through GOD’S

EVERLASTING, ETERNAL BLESSED

WORD, CAN WE RECEIVE

INSPIRATION*, and that’s *GIVEN BY the

Holy Ghost. BY FAITH WE RECEIVE IT.*

*"what does the word prophesy mean?"*

*"Look it up. It’s to _'tell something, UNDER

INSPIRATION'..._"*

58-0927 - _*WHY ARE WE NOT A

DENOMINATION?*_

168b Now, *what does the word prophesy

mean?* Look it up. It’s *to _“tell something,

UNDER INSPIRATION”..._*

*"as we look to Him TO GIVE TO US THE

INSPIRATION NEEDED FOR THIS

MESSAGE."*

58-1228 - _*WHY LITTLE BETHLEHEM?*_

21 So let us bow our heads, just a moment now,

*as we look to Him TO GIVE TO US THE

INSPIRATION NEEDED FOR THIS

MESSAGE.*

*"pray for me...that I’ll make the right

decisions, BY THE INSPIRATION OF

GOD"*

59-1227E - _*A SUPER SENSE*_

22 So, you love me, I know you do. *So pray for

me*, this week, *that I’ll make the right

decisions, BY THE INSPIRATION OF GOD

*"Joshua...BY INSPIRATION...give each man

his promise"*

*"God has set some in the church, through the

labor pains!"*

60-0515E - _*ADOPTION #1*_

49 And *Joshua*, not knowing this, but *BY

INSPIRATION*, led of the Holy Spirit, after

being into the promised land, *give each man his

promise, exactly what the Holy Spirit promised*

through the birth back there.

50 How that *God has set some in the church,

through the labor pains!* Oh, they get

tremendous sometime. When a *church is

groaning under the persecution of the outside

world*, believing on the Lord Jesus, that *the

promise of the Holy Ghost is just as real to us as

it was to Pentecost*, how they *groan and cry

under labor pains!* But *when they are born, and

positionally born* into the Kingdom of God,

*then* the *Holy Ghost* has *set in the church*,

some *apostles*, some *prophets*, some

*teachers*, some *pastors*, some *evangelists*.

*Then* He’s give into there, speaking with

*tongues, interpretation* of tongues,

*knowledge, wisdom, gifts of healing, all kinds

of miracles.*

*"The winds and the waves obeyed"*

*"That TOOK INSPIRATION; that took the

POWER OF DIVINITY to do that."*

took more than a man to do that; that took God.

*That TOOK INSPIRATION; that took the

POWER OF DIVINITY to do that.*

*"we are seeking every importance of God that

we can know...all that we can find out...& see

what He’s promised to do for us."*

*"that’s what we come to church for."*

*"That’s why the preacher preaches...why he

studies & meditates in the Scripture, & SEEKS

FOR INSPIRATION"*

*"ministers should seek these things."*

60-0925 - _*THAT DAY ON CALVARY*_

42 And if *it’s so important to the human race,

Calvary*, I think *it’s good for us to go back and

examine, see just what it means to us*. For, I’m

sure, *at this late hour* that we’re living, *we are

seeking every importance of God that we can

know. And all that we can find out, we are here

to learn of it, to see what is for us, and what God

has done for us, and see what He’s promised to

do for us.* And *that’s what we come to church

for.* That’s *why the preacher preaches*, that’s

*why he studies and meditates in the Scripture,

and SEEKS FOR INSPIRATION*, is because

*he is a public servant to God’s people.* And


of 41

*he’s trying to find something* that will… *that

God would have to say to His people, something

that would help them.* Maybe, it might be,

condemn them in their sins, but would be a help

to raise them up, that they might forsake their sins

and then raise up to serve the Lord. And

*ministers should seek these things.*

*"I’ve studied it as from the historical

standpoint,"*

*but wait till I get in the pulpit here FOR THE

INSPIRATION!"*

60-1204E - _*THE PATMOS VISION*_

53b *I’ve studied it as from the historical*

standpoint, *but WAIT TILL I GET IN THE

PULPIT HERE FOR THE INSPIRATION.*

Because I feel that we are setting together in

heavenly places in Christ Jesus, and that *your

Spirit, your part, the lick of Fire (the Holy Spirit)

that’s on You comes to another*, and another to

another, *It kindles the great Body of God* and

*sets It aflame*, and *there’s where

revelations…*

*"the INSPIRATION OF GOD IS HERE

WITH US to MAKE THIS WORD LIVE to

it’s *God’s INSPIRED Word*, then IF *THE

revivals* is *to bring our gifts and our ministry

together, to pool it together FOR A REVIVAL

real revival*, or, now, *a going home of the

Church*, for *we’re near the end-time.*

*"INSPIRATION: it’s PLACES and

CONDITIONS YOU CAN GET IN TO...TO

61-0410 - _*CONFERENCES*_

50 But now, *INSPIRATION: IT’S PLACES

and CONDITIONS YOU CAN GET INTO,

BUT TO BE INSPIRED.* I, being a lover of the

outdoors, I love to climb up into the mountains

and listen to the call of the wild. And I’ve loved

it since a little boy. Not so much to hunt the

animal, but just to be in the woods, *because

there’s something INSPIRING to me.*

gave me, I’ll never forget that. I’ll never will.*

And I— *I’d do anything for you.* Sometimes

I… Now, this is *just kinda on us home folks

here*, as we say it down south. *Sometimes you

hear me cutting*; and really *I go home* and set

down, and sometimes *pick up one of those

tapes*, and say, _*“Surely, I didn’t say that.

Surely, I couldn’t have said that.”*_ And—and

*then I think,* _*“Well, what I have said, I have

said*, and it was— *IT WAS UNDER

INSPIRATION.”_ So *I’m never ashamed of

Gentiles hasn’t filled up yet*, just to the end of

the cup. *But some day that will be, and God will

right away, whoever he may be, that’ll raise him

quickly. *I believe it has to come. That’s what

we’re studying this for*, that we’re so close.
