Believest Thou This
No matter how much this, that, and the other, you've got to have something strike you, brother, vital; that settles it forever. That's faith. Jesus is the High Priest of your confession. Whatever you confess that He's doing He'll do. You… A lot of people look at symptoms. You say, "Well, Brother Branham, my hand's no straighter." It'll never be as long as you look at it. We don't look to that; we look to God's promise. Talk about symptoms, look at Jonah, down in the belly of the whale. If anybody could've had symptoms, he had them: backslidden; hands tied behind him; out on the sea, a storm come up; pitched him out; whale swallowed him, went to the bottom of the sea. Any fish, when he fin-… when he feeds, he goes and rests his fin—fins on the bottom of the sea. And there he was down there with a bellyful of backslidden preacher, laying down there on the banks, the… down there under the sea, a storm on the sea. Backslid, what a condition he was. He looked this a way, it was whale's belly; he looked that way, it was whale's belly; everywhere he looked, it was whale's belly. You know what he said? He said, "I'm not looking at that whale's belly." He said, "They're lying vanities." He said, "Lord, once more I look to Your holy temple." Hallelujah. Didn't see whale's belly, he seen God's temple.
Daily Bread Jonah 2:8
They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
