The Requirements for a Revival

Good evening, fellow ministers in the mystical Body of Christ at this end time. Greetings to the ministers in other nations as well, who are connected through the internet or satellite at this time, there in Colombia, Paraguay, Argentina, México, Costa Rica, Chile, Puerto Rico, and other nations; Brazil too, and other nations who are connected through the internet or the satellite at this time.

May God bless all of you greatly, and may He allow us to hear and understand on this occasion, may He open the Scriptures to us and open our understanding and our heart to hear, believe, and understand all these things contained in the Word of God. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

For this occasion, let’s read in Second Chronicles, chapter 7, verses 12 to 18, where it says… This is referring to… this was on the day that Solomon dedicated the temple to God; and therefore… Notice, let’s read here in chapter 7, verse 1, so that we have a clear picture; it says:

“Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the house.

And the priests could not enter into the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled the Lord’s house.

And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised the Lord, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.”

And now, let’s go on here to this same 7th chapter, verse 12 and on, where it says:

“And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.

If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.

For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.

And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments;

Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man to be ruler in Israel.”

May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand It.

Our subject is: “THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A REVIVAL.”

The revival is where God gives life: the Life of God is manifested and imparted to human beings. It is a great blessing from God when God sends a revival: the Life of God is sent and manifested in the midst of His people.

Throughout history God has sent different revivals, in other words, He has sent revivals to His people at different times.

And now, the requirements for a revival are important; because there are two types of revivals: there is the revival from God, which is carried out by God through His Holy Spirit, in each age and in each dispensation, which is manifested when God sends a messenger, a prophet to Earth, and through that prophet, God through His Holy Spirit manifests Himself and gives His Message to that messenger, and that messenger—anointed with the Holy Spirit—preaches that Message, and God’s revival arises there. And with that Message, God calls and gathers His elect pertaining to that time.

Notice here what Rev. William Branham tells us: in the book of Quotations, on page 26, paragraph 218, it says, of the book of Quotations, (this was preached in the year ‘58); it says¹:

218 – “32 And so we, tonight, want to think on that. And remember, that, in the midst of all this cry, God cannot send a revival till He’s got men in shape to take it. (…)

33 And before we can have this revival, God has to call out and train men, God-trained men, to carry this Message.”

And now, in order for a revival to come to God’s people, God has to have a man and train him and give him His Message; because a revival from God comes by the creative Word being spoken by the Holy Spirit to the messenger, and then, through that messenger the Holy Spirit speaks that creative Word, and brings life to the people, brings the revival pertaining to that time, and brings the joy and salvation for all those who receive that messenger and receive that revealed Word for that time.

We have just seen that in order for a revival to come from God, the requirements are clear: God must have the man, train him, and give the Message to that man; he is a man with both consciouses together; he is a man who receives that Message from God, that Divine revelation; that is God’s man, as were Adam, Seth, Enoch, Methuselah, Noah, and so on; they were men of God for their times; men of God for ages and men of God for dispensations, that is why I included Enoch and Methuselah as well.

Now, Rev. William Branham asks us, or asks God if there will be another revival. But let’s see a little more regarding this subject; in the book The Revelation Of The Seven Seals, pages 121 to 122, let’s read something there. Page 121, on that paragraph [page], he says:

“[63] Here is the plan of it. The first thing happens, there is a—a—an announcement in the Heavens, first. What happens? A Seal is opened. What is that? A mystery is unfolded. See? And when a mystery unfolds, then a trumpet sounds. It declares a war. A plague falls, and a church age opened. See?

64 What is the ‘war’ part? The angel of the Church catches the mystery of God, not fully yet revealed.”

In other words, he catches the mystery of God pertaining to that time, which hasn’t been fully revealed yet, but the messenger catches it; and even though it isn’t revealed he catches it, because the Holy Spirit brings it to him, He reveals that mystery to him, and notice what happens:

“[64] But, when he does, he catches this mystery of God, and then he goes forth to the people after the mystery has been given to him. (…)”

In other words, the mystery for each age is given to the messenger of each age, he catches that Divine revelation, he has that Message, he preaches It; and there, notice what happens:

“[64] … What does he do out there? He begins to proclaim that Message. And what does it start? A war, a spiritual war.

65 And then God takes His messenger, with the Elect of that age, and lays them away, asleep. And then He drops a plague upon them who rejected It; a temporary judgment.

66 And then after that is over, then it goes on, and they denominate, and bring in denominations, and start off with that man’s work, like of Wesley and all the rest of them. And then it gets all in a squabble again.

67 And then another mystery comes forth.”

And when God sends another mystery, what is He sending? A messenger; and in that messenger is the mystery for that time. Let’s see:

“67 And then another mystery comes forth. Then what happened? Another messenger arrives on earth, for a church age. See? Then, when he arrives, he the—the trumpet sounds. He declares war. See? And then what happens? Finally, then, he is caught away. And then when he is laid away, then plague falls, destroys them. Spiritual death hits the church, and she is gone, that group.

Then He goes on to another one.”

See? And now, let’s see another passage where he also speaks to us about this: on page 132 of The Seals, he says… pages 131 to 132 of The Seals says:

“135 Notice, Trumpets means political disturbance, wars. Matthew 24, Jesus spoke of it. He said, ‘You’ll hear of wars and rumors of wars, see, all the way down through.’ You remember the…Jesus speaking that, ‘Wars, rumors and wars, and rumors and wars, and plumb on down to the end.’ Now, that’s the Trumpets sounding.

136 Now, when we get on the Trumpets, we’ll go back there and pick up each one of them wars, and show you that they followed them churches…”

And now… let’s see here:

“[136] … show you they follow these Seals. ‘Wars and rumors of war.’ But, Trumpet, denotes political disturbance.

137 Whereas, Seals deals with the religious disturbance. See? A Seal is opened, a Message is dropped.”

No one will be able to know the mystery of the Seventh Seal without God dropping a Message, which is the Message of the mystery of the Seventh Seal; just like the Message of the Gospel of Grace is the Message of the mystery of the First Coming of Christ, and the Message of the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ is the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom. As simple as that.

If a great disturbance was caused by the Message of the Gospel of Grace, the Message of the First Coming of Christ, the Message that made known the mystery of the First Coming of Christ; and even when it was being fulfilled, the mystery of the First Coming of Christ was being fulfilled in Jesus, there was a disturbance… notice, because Seals mean what? Religious disturbance.

There was a religious disturbance back then in the land of Israel, in Jerusalem, there was a religious disturbance back then among the Sanhedrin Council; that is why they wanted to kill Jesus, in order to control that religious disturbance; because they said: “This man does many miracles, many signs,” (that is in Saint John chapter 11). “If we leave Him alone, all men will believe in Him; and the Romans shall come and shall take away our nation and our city. If we leave Him alone, all men will believe in Him.” And the purpose is for everyone to believe in the Messiah, in Christ.

Now, the high priest said: “You know nothing at all,” (to the Sanhedrin Council, in chapter 11). “If…” He says: “It is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.” Is that what it says, Miguel? [Bro. Miguel: Yes. “It is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.”] And from that point on they sought to kill Him, but – they took counsel together to put Him to death, but He would die not only for the Hebrew nation, but that He should gather together in one all the children of God that were scattered abroad.

That was the purpose of the death of Christ on Calvary’s Cross: to gather together in one, in one mystical Body of believers, all the children of God; to gather together in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is the mystical Body of Christ, all the children of God that were scattered throughout the whole world. That is why Christ said:

“Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” (Saint Mark chapter 16, verses 15 to 16.)

And that way they would be gathered together in One, in Christ, and therefore, in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is His mystical Body of believers.

And now, if with the mystery of the First Coming of Christ it was – there was a mystery, there was a manifestation of a… there was a religious disturbance, what will it be like with the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ? What will it be like with the Seventh Seal and Its opening?

When the Seventh Seal was opened in Heaven, there was silence²; but on Earth, that will be a world-wide disturbance.

Let’s continue here, it says [The Seals]:

“[137] See? A Seal is opened, a Message is dropped.”

When a Seal is opened, a Message is dropped; It is dropped in the messenger. The messenger takes It, preaches It, and drops It where? In the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and the Church proclaims It, takes It everywhere, and It is placed throughout the world.

“[137] And then the church is always so set up in its own political ways, and whatever more, and all of its dignitary. And when that real Message drops down, that messenger goes forth and he shakes them to pieces. That’s right. It’s religious disturbance when a Seal is opened.”

People think that when God sends a Message and a messenger, well, everything is going to be calm. He says that a religious disturbance comes forth, because others come with their own opinions trying to fight against the messenger; just like those Jannes and Jambres tried to do against Moses back in Egypt;³ and also Dathan, Korah, and Abiram among the Hebrew people, there in the wilderness;⁴ and other additional people who joined those leaders who were against Moses. And also when they made the golden calf, notice, people joined those who asked to make that golden calf.⁵

There will always be a battle, while… Notice, and what was happening from God? God was giving the Law to Moses there on the mountain through the Angel of the Lord.

While God was dropping a Message in His messenger Moses, a disturbance was taking place below; but when Moses arrived, notice, with the Message, the Word, then there was a Divine Judgment as well. Moses also cried out to God on behalf of the people later on, so that God would forgive the people; but before that, there was a judgment from God against those who rebelled.

Now, let’s see, it says:

“[137] It’s religious disturbance when a Seal is opened. That’s what’s happened. Yeah. Yes.

138 They get all at ease in Zion. The church gets all settled down, and, ‘We got it all made.’ Just like the church of England, they was all settled down. The Catholic church, all settled down, and along come Luther. There was a religious disturbance. Yes, sir! Sure was! Well, the church went on off, with Zwingli. And from Zwingli, come on down to different ones, and to Calvin. And after a while, the Anglican church settled down, and it was just at ease, and along come Wesley. There was a religious disturbance. That’s right. See, it always denotes a religious disturbance.”

And now, let’s see what it tells us here in the book An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages, page 95. Also page 241; let’s read 241 first, of The Ages, it says:

“‘And I will give him the morning star.’ According to Revelation 22:16, and II Peter 1:19, Jesus is the Morning Star. ‘I am the root and offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.’ ‘Until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts.’ The Spirit is, therefore, making a promise to the elect of the Dark Ages relative to Himself and then in the ages to come.

As we have already stated, Jesus identifies Himself with the messengers of each age. They receive from Him the revelation on the Word for each period. This Word revelation brings the elect of God out of the world and into full union with Jesus Christ. These messengers are called stars because they shine with a borrowed or reflected light of the Son, even Jesus. They are also called stars because they are ‘holders of light’ at night. Thus in the darkness of sin, they bring the light of God to His people.”

And now, we have seen the order for the call to the elect in each age: it is through the messenger of each age, through whom God identifies Himself and through whom the Message for each age comes.

And now, let’s go to page 95, where it says [The Ages]:

“And the church corporate has never learned this lesson from the Scripture nor from history. Every time God gives a visitation of the Holy Spirit,” (remember that a revival is a visitation of the Spirit), “and people get free, after awhile they bind themselves right back to the very thing they came out of. When Luther came out of Catholicism, the people stayed free for awhile. But when he died, the people simply organized what they thought he believed and set up their own creeds and ideas and repudiated anyone who said opposite to what they said. They went right back to Catholicism with a little different form. And right today many Lutherans are ready to go all the way back.”

Rev. William Branham says that on page 95 of the book of The Ages.

And now, there we have seen what has always happened.

Now, let’s see a bit more, let’s see a bit more somewhere around here… On page 251 it says, in those paragraphs, it says [The Ages]:

“God will be in the midst of her,” (meaning, of His Church), “and God will declare Himself in the midst of her as He always has. Hallelujah! And she will be UNorganized. Don’t forget that.

Now we can see that Jesus Christ is revealing Himself through the ages by His Spirit in the messengers. They are as Moses was to the children of Israel. As he had the revelation for his day, so each messenger had God’s revelation and ministry for that day. Thus when we see that the messengers are in His hand, we see the Lord identifying Himself with these men and granting them His power. It is not enough that He has associated Himself with the whole church, which we saw when He was seen standing amongst the seven golden lampstands.”

And now, we find here that there is a Divine order established for God to reveal Himself in the midst of His Church. God always sends a messenger, to whom comes the revelation of Christ and with whom Christ identifies Himself, and through whom Christ in Holy Spirit manifests Himself and speaks through him to His Church the Message pertaining to that time, and brings a revival to His Church for that stage of His Church. And with that messenger God sends wonderful helpers. It says… page 232 says [The Ages]:

“Now God kept raising up not only the messengers to each age but He raised up some wonderful helpers for those messengers. He gave every age some wonderful men of God.”

There we can see what happens in each stage of the Church.

But now, let’s see what happens here: on page 156, in those paragraphs it says [The Ages]:

“In every age we have exactly the same pattern. That is why the light comes through some God-given messenger in a certain area, and then from that messenger there spreads the light through the ministry of others who have been faithfully taught. But of course all those who go out don’t always learn how necessary it is to speak ONLY what the messenger has spoken. (Remember, Paul warned the people to say only what he said, I Corinthians 14:37, ‘If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the COMMANDMENTS OF THE LORD.’ ‘What? Came the Word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?’) They add here, or take away there, and soon the message is no longer pure, and the revival dies down.”

Now, we are seeing in this passage and in the passages we have read, the order for… the requirements for a revival. And we have also seen here how a revival dies down.

And therefore, no one wants to be responsible for the death of a revival that God sends for the time in which people are living. Therefore, we have to be wise in the things of God, wise in our subject about revivals, so that the revival of the Last Day stays alive.

We have seen in the Divine order that for God to send a revival He must have the man, the prophet, and prepare him, give that man the Message, and send him, and through that man speak to His people that creative Word, that Message which He has given him; that is the creative Word of God to create a revival and give Eternal Life to all those who are written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, pertaining to that time.

Through that Message that he gives to the messenger and he proclaims It: Christ calls and gathers His elect of that time, where? In His mystical Body of believers.

We have also seen that there is an order in terms of the time for a revival. In other words, a person can’t say: “I want God to give us a revival at this time.” If that isn’t the time for God to begin a new age or a new dispensation, no revival will come.

Although blessings of God may come, but the revival pertaining to an age can only take place in that age; and it can only come through the manifestation of God through His Holy Spirit in the messenger pertaining to that age; and he has to come with a Message from Heaven, which is the creative Word for that time, for God to create that revival of that time.

Notice here, on page 168, let’s see here… 168, paragraph 1502, it says [Quotations]⁶:

1502 – “134 Now, remember, ‘The Word of the Lord comes to the prophet,’ not the theologian. The prophet, he is a reflector of God’s Word. He can’t say nothing; he can’t say his own thoughts. He can only speak what God reveals. Even to the prophet Balaam when he was tried to be sold, sell his right, he said, ‘How can any prophet say anything but what God puts in his mouth?’ It’s a thing that God does, that you can’t say nothing else. And you’re born that way.”

In other words, the person is born with both consciouses together; that is how a prophet is born, so that God puts in him and in his mouth His Word pertaining to that time. That Word is spoken and what is said in the Word that he spoke is materialized; and those are the Divine thoughts that God had for that time.

What God thought to do at that time, He expresses it… in order to materialize it, He expresses it through that messenger, he speaks it, and it is a Work of the creative Word being spoken at that time; therefore, it is a Work of God for that time, and, therefore, it is the Word veiled and revealed through human flesh.

It goes on to say:

1502 – “[134] And you’re born that way. (…)

137 But nobody set before a prophet, ’cause he was—he was absolutely the Word of God. He was that Word in his day. You seen God reflect.”

Therefore, the Word pertaining to each time comes to the prophet, to the messenger of that time, It becomes flesh in him; he proclaims that Message, and the people listen and It becomes flesh in the people, in the Church, and in each Church member as an individual. And then the people also become the Word made flesh, the Message made flesh in those people; mortal flesh, and then it will be in immortal flesh, in a glorified body.

And now, let’s continue here on page 168, paragraph 1496, says [Quotations]⁷:

1496 – “225 Why, me an old man, suffered all my life, why did He heal me now? I believe I’ll ride this trail again, I got to bring a Message!”

And he is speaking here on the 11th month, 28th day, of the year 1965. And the next month (less than 30 days later), on December 24th, which is Christmas Eve (or Pascua, as they also call it in other nations), on the morning of that 24th day, a few minutes past 5:00, Rev. William Branham departed.

And what happened with the Message he said he would bring? Well, it happened like when God told Elijah there on Mount Sinai (and Mount Sinai represents the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, where Elijah was in his fourth manifestation); notice, He tells him: “Return on your way, the way you came; anoint,” (whom?) “Hazael to be king,” (over what?) “over Syria, Jehu to be king over Israel, and Elisha to be prophet in your place.”⁸

And when Elijah is returning from the way he came, the first person he meets is the last one.⁹ But… it is because the first shall be last, and the last shall be first.¹⁰

Notice, the first one he met was Elisha, the second one he met was (whom?) Hazael, and the last one was Jehu. Jehu was the second and ended up being the last.

It is because when God gives a prophecy, later, when God fulfills it, He knows how He is going to fulfill it.

And there, those who intellectually say: “No, if that was the order He gave it in, then that is how He has to fulfill it.”

God is what? Sovereign; therefore, He does as He wishes to do, and speaks as He wishes to speak, and He can hide the Divine mysteries as He wishes to hide them.

The things which are revealed belong to whom? To us and to our children; but the secret things are for whom? Whom do they belong to? They belong to whom? To God, to the Lord our God. That is in chapter 29, verse 29, of Deuteronomy.

And now, what happened with Rev. William Branham, who said he had to bring a Message and he left? And who also on some occasions (before the opening of the Seals) said that he would go to Israel, he would preach to them, call them, God would use him, he would discern the heart of the people and they would believe? What happened with all of that? It was the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Christ in him, speaking things that He will do under the ministries of the Two Olive Trees.

Therefore, He was reflecting in him something that He would do later on, something that He is going to do later on. As it was with David, who said [Psalm 22:16]:

“They pierced my hands and my feet.

I may tell all my bones.”

But he wasn’t the Messiah, but the Messiah the Prince of Israel was being reflected in him. And when the Messiah the Prince appeared, all of that was fulfilled in Him; but it was reflected in David. Therefore, he went through a similar situation, but David’s situation was not the Sacrifice of Atonement for sin.

Now notice, here, on page 156, paragraph 1396, it says [Quotations]¹¹:

1396 – “167 But, in obedience, this little faith Woman, that lives by faith, the Bride…”

Now, notice what he calls Her: “This little Woman.” Why does he call Her: “This little Woman”? He is speaking here in year ‘65. He had seen the vision of the Church,¹² and different women had passed by, who represented the different churches or Church ages that later denominated.

And then, when he saw the Laodicean Age, he started to cry because of what he saw, which was an awful thing. And when he is crying like that and sad, the Angel tells him that the Bride is going to pass by again. And when he looks, and when he hears a hymn (that is, some marching music and songs), he says like – something like: “Onward, Christian Soldiers,” which is a… a marching, military-like song; when he looks, he sees a group of young people, young women, who are coming; in other words…

And the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ at this end time is represented in a group of young women. Why? Because She will be a young Church. She won’t be an old church, an old denomination, but a young Church; She will be…

Why a young Church? Because just like God took a woman who was already old and an old man: Abraham and Sarah, and rejuvenated them so that they could have the promised son; He will restore and will rejuvenate His Bride-Church, and at the Last Day they will see Her as a young Church. “But, hasn’t She been around for many years?” But that is the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ to have God’s sons and daughters of the Last Day. And he saw that She was from different nations.

And let’s leave it all alone there; because in some passages he mentions a few details, but let’s leave them alone.

The thing is that they were young women representing a young Church: the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, representing the Church in the Age of the Cornerstone; because the Church in the Laodicean Age is already presented as a Church that became old, denominated, and died.

She died, the Laodicean Age died to that revival that gives Eternal Life. But there will be a young Church with a revival that will impart Life to Her, Eternal Life; and it will give Her the revelation of the Seventh Seal, to give Her the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

Let’s continue reading here, it says:

1396 – “167 But, in obedience, this little faith Woman,…”

Remember, “this little faith Woman;” and She is the One that will have the (what?) rapturing faith, the transforming faith; the faith: the revelation.

It says: “When the Son of man comes, shall He find faith on the Earth?”¹³ That faith to be changed and raptured, that faith is the revelation of the Coming of the Son of man with His Angels.

Faith is a gift of God; therefore, Christ is the One who has to give it to His Church. Faith comes by what? By hearing the Word of God.¹⁴

And Rev. William Branham says that the rapturing faith is given, is brought by the Seven Thunders to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. Page 148 of the book of The Seals, and other passages of the book of The Seals, and on pages 379 to 380 of the book of The Ages, there he speaks to us about the rapturing faith, the faith for the harvest.

It goes on to say… We should read it again here [Quotations]¹⁵:

1396 – “167 But, in obedience, this little faith Woman, that lives by faith, the Bride; the person here, there; here, off somewhere else, some other church, some other denomination, whatever it is, in some not… Believes the Word of God, obedient, waiting in love, for the promise of the age to be confirmed.”

The promise. Which is “the promise of the age” for the Last Day? The promise that was forerun, which Rev. William Branham spoke of, which God would fulfill in the midst of His Church. He spoke of the Coming of the Son of man with His Angels; that is a promise that has to be confirmed, in other words, fulfilled, to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

1396 – “[167] She is watching for it.”

In other words, he says that the Bride-Church is watching for the fulfillment of that promise, for the confirmation, which is the fulfillment of that promise.

1396 – “[167] She is part of that Word, and She is watching for Her life to manifest that Word.”

In other words, the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ of the Last Day is part of that promise; and She is watching for that promise, that Word, to be manifested (where?) in Her, for it to be fulfilled in the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

In other words, the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is not waiting for that promise to be fulfilled in a pagan religion; no. It has to be fulfilled in the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, where He has given different revivals.

And by that promise being fulfilled at the Last Day: Christ will bring the revival of the Last Day to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, to His Bride-Church of the Last Day.

It goes on to say:

1396 – “[167] Brethren, can’t you see that? I hope that didn’t go over you.

The Body is waiting for (which is the Word), waiting for the Life (which is the Spirit) to confirm or make It alive,” (meaning, make It real. Which Body is waiting? The mystical Body of Christ). “That’s what She is waiting for. No other life will work in Her.”

Nothing else will work in the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, nothing else will give Her the revival of the Last Day, nothing else will give God’s elect the faith to be changed and raptured at the Last Day, but the fulfillment of what is promised for the Church at this end time.

And that promised Word must be made flesh in order to be revealed, made known.

1396 – “[167] … other life (won’t) work in Her. She can’t come to life any other way. Yet, She feels it out there, and She knows it’s going to happen; then here it happens, then She wakes up. God said, ‘Let there be,’ and She came forth like the first one come forth.”

“She came forth (that Bride-Church) like the first one came forth.” See? That is what was shown to him in the vision of the Bride coming forth at the Last Day as a Bride represented in a group of very beautiful young women.

And now let’s turn to page… let’s look at 120, paragraph 1065 says [Quotations]¹⁶:

1065 – “[253] He was the a-vindicated Light of that day,” (meaning, Christ). “See?

254 But there’s more Word to be a-vindicated. He’s got to vindicate more Word,” (that is, more Word, more promise that He has made for His Church). “And when the last Word is vindicated, is vindicated rather,” (meaning that there will be a last Word; and if It is a last Word, then it must be at the Last Day; on the final day: the Last Day, the seventh millennium), “then death is swallowed up in victory, and the dead in Christ shall rise, the Millennium will set in.”

Notice, the resurrection of the dead in Christ and the transformation of us who are alive depends on that promised Word for the Last Day being vindicated, being fulfilled.

And now, let’s see what page 124 tells us; paragraph 1105 says [Quotations]¹⁷:

1105 – “[130] Wherever the Word is, It’s veiled.

131 Moses had the Word. Now remember, after the Word was made manifest, Moses was Moses again. See? But while that Word was in him to be give out, he was God; well, he wasn’t Moses no more. He had the Word of the Lord for that age. Nothing could touch him till that was over; (…) he had the Word. And he was the Word to them.”

On page 125, paragraph 1110, it says [Quotations]¹⁸:

1110 – “[171] Moses was that living Word to the people, veiled by the Pillar of Fire, speaking what was to be veiled later behind badger skins. See? (…)

[172] Moses had the Word. They were written by God, nobody could interpret Them, Moses had to interpret Them, first. That’s the reason he veiled his face, ’cause he… Do you see It? See?

Here It is. We could pick It, pack It up, and everything else there, but It’s got to be revealed. In order to reveal, Moses had to become God to the people. (…)

[175] Moses was the living Word veiled then,” (the Word, what? Made flesh). “The people saw that Pillar of Fire, said, ‘Now we are satisfied.’ See? ‘Let Moses speak.’ See? ‘Don’t let God speak, lest we die.’ Moses walked right into that Pillar of Fire.”

And next is paragraph 1111, of the same page, 125, it says [Quotations]¹⁹:

1111 – “[188] The promised Word to this age must also be veiled. Notice…”

It goes on to say… Now, how must it be veiled? In human flesh.

And now, let’s see something else here regarding the gathering of the elect, regarding the union of the Bride, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, Her union with Christ. It says on page 116, paragraph 1022, it says [Quotations]²⁰:

1022 – “[131] And in the last day, as we’re told, ‘as it was in the days of Sodom,’ the Bride will be united by the Word of God made manifest in the flesh.”

By the Word of God made manifest in the flesh, the Bride will be united with Christ. There is no other way.

And now, let’s see here: on page 157, paragraph 1407, it says [Quotations]²¹:

1407 – “94 I’m only building. The hour is close at hand when you’re going to see something happen, when something is going to take place. And all this background here has only been laying a foundation for a short, quick Message that will shake the whole nations.”

And here he is speaking in the month of August, on the 15th day of the month of August of the year ‘65; in other words, four months before his departure. He had his Message, of which he said: “This Message will introduce Christ to the world, this Message will introduce the Second Coming of Christ.”

And now, it says that this Message that he has and with that Message he is laying the foundation for another Message that will come.

Now, let’s see page 162… If a Message is going to come, It cannot come unless It is made flesh in a messenger; because a Message cannot come without a messenger, and a messenger cannot come without a Message; and It cannot come unless it’s the time, the age or dispensation, in other words, the time and season, the time period and season.

Now, let’s see here: on page 162, paragraph 1441, it says [Quotations]²²:

1441 – “199 She’ll turn at the west and ride back again, one of these days, just remember. She sure will. And that’s right.”

Then on… the same page, 162, paragraph 1446, it says [Quotations]²³:

1446 – “49 But watch, when the spiritual Bride, when She begins to have a revival, when She begins to come back and line Herself up with the Word of God. Watch then again, you see, how that the Scriptures, at that time, there’ll be a Message…”

There’ll be a Message or a Message will sweep out; the correct interpretation would be that there’ll be a Message or that a Message will sweep out to catch that Bride; but the translation here, it seems like they translated it word for word and the – the meaning isn’t conveyed very well. But it says:

1446 – “[49] How that the Scriptures, at that time, there’ll be a Message sweep out to catch that Bride, catch that Woman, Elect.”

In other words, a Message that will come forth; and if it’s a Message, there must be a messenger; and if there is a Message and a messenger, there must be an age. Therefore, there must be an age: the Age of the Cornerstone; there must be a messenger: the messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone; and there must be a Message: the Message of the Age of the Cornerstone, which is the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, a dispensational Message.

Now, let’s see another place where it tells us what will be happening at this end time, where it tells us that he is building a platform. Let’s see, Miguel, where we have it. Not 1054, that’s not it, but let’s read it while we find the other one [Quotations, p. 119]²⁴:

1054 – “[279] When the persecution comes, don’t get scared. There is a Light, said He would catch His people away.”

Ten, what? 1058, let’s see what it says; it says [Quotations, p. 119]²⁵:

1058 – “[50] I may be building a platform for somebody else to step on,” (he is speaking in the year ‘63). “I may be taken before that time. (…)

51 But I do believe, that we are so close, that I would never die with old age. Yet, at fifty-four years old, I’ll never die with old age, until He’s here. See? Unless I’m shot, killed, or something other, some way killed, just old age wouldn’t kill me, until He’s come. (…)”

In other words, until who comes? The One who is going to step on the platform that he prepared for him. John the Baptist prepared the platform for Him, because he came making a people ready, preparing a people, so that they would be prepared to receive the One who would come after him; he prepared the ground, the platform, for Him. It goes on to say, it says:

1058 – “[52] I may not do it, but this Message will introduce Jesus Christ to the world. For, ‘As John the Baptist was sent to forerun the first coming, so is the Message to forerun the second Coming.’ And John said, ‘Behold the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world.’ See? So, it’s, it paralleled it in every way. And I know it will.”

So, we can see that this is what will bring that revival of the Last Day.

Let’s see it here to have the whole picture more clear: page… (if someone has the book of Quotations and has it ready on that page there), paragraph 1485, says [Quotations, p. 166]²⁶:

1485 – “6 Now, there’s…I was…getting pretty old, and I thought, ‘Will I…Will there be another revival, I’ll see another time?’”

And now, he is thinking, meditating: “Will there be another revival, I’ll see another time?” In other words, another revival like the one of the ages; but it will be a greater revival than the one of the ages: it is a dispensational revival, which is much greater.

1485 – “[6] And just remember, from the west will come a white horse rider. We’ll ride this trail again. That’s right. Soon as we get ready. It’s a promise, you see.”

And if it’s a promise, there will be another revival; and there will be another Rider. A Rider: the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19. And let’s see, page 151 of the book of The Seals, says:

“283 And, Jesus, His Name on earth was ‘Redeemer,’ Jesus. When He was on earth, He was the Redeemer, that’s true. But when He conquered death and hell, and overcome them, and ascended on High, He received a new Name. That’s the reason you holler the way they do, and they don’t get nothing.

284 It’ll be revealed in the Thunders.”

In other words, the revelation comes in the Thunders; and the Thunders are the Voice of Christ, how? Crying as when a lion roars.

“[284] Notice the mysteries. He is coming, riding…There’s got to be Something to change this Church,” (it’s Something to change this Church). “You know that. There’s got to be Something. Notice, ‘No man knowed, but Himself.’ Now, notice, ‘No man knowed, but Hisself.’

And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name was called The Word of God.

Oh, my! Notice!

And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he tread the winepress of the fierceness and the wrath of Almighty God.

And he had on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

285 There comes the Messiah. There He is.”

And now, what will change this Church is what? The Coming of that Rider on that white horse of Revelation 19. And what will that be? On page 295 of the book of The Seals, Rev. William Branham says… he says:

“196 But when our Lord appears here on earth, He’ll be riding on a snow-white horse. And He’ll be completely, fully, the Emmanuel, the Word of God incarnate in a Man.”

That is what he foreran; that is what will change the Church, that is what will bring the rapturing faith, that is what will bring the revival of the Last Day, that is what will bring the faith to be changed and raptured and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; and that is what the Work of the Last Day will do.

And that is also what will cause a religious disturbance: the opening of the Seventh Seal; because when God sends… opens a Seal, when God sends a Seal, a mystery: what kind of disturbance arises? A religious disturbance.

If the First Coming of Christ, which was already announced and there were details about that mystery of the First Coming of Christ: that He would be a descendant of King David and that He would be born in Bethlehem of Judea;²⁷ when it was fulfilled and when He manifested Himself, revealed Himself to the people, at 29 and a half years old, He brought forth a religious disturbance. And the religious world of the Hebrew religion and the religious leaders of the Sanhedrin Council, of the Council of the Hebrew religion (seventy Hebrew scholars led by the high priest as number seventy-one), notice, they rose against the Messiah, against the fulfillment of the mystery of the First Coming of Christ.

He fulfilled all the prophecies pertaining to the First Coming of the Messiah, and despite all that the Sanhedrin Council did not believe, they did not accept the First Coming of the Messiah, and ordered the death of the Messiah, they sentenced Him to death.

All of that was prophesied that it would be that way; but thank God because all of that happened and Christ died: He died as the Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins. And so that is how the Sacrifice of Atonement for the sins of every human being came forth, so that every human being has the opportunity to be reconciled to God through that Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins, which Christ carried out on Calvary’s Cross.

Now, we have been seeing that mystery of what the revival of the Last Day brings.

Now, let’s see something else here: page 154 of the book of The Seals, Rev. William Branham says:

“302 Glory! Notice! And when this Holy Spirit that we have becomes incarnate to us, the One that’s in our midst now in the form of the Holy Ghost, becomes incarnate to us, in the Person of Jesus Christ, we’ll crown Him King of kings,” (and Lord of lords).

And now, here is the promise that the Holy Spirit will become incarnate.

And now, on page 168 of the book of The Seals, Rev. William Branham says, or the Holy Spirit through Rev. William Branham says, referring to the antichrist and the man of sin, he says:

“[401] See, he first started, an antichrist, the spirit; then he become a false prophet; then, later, when the devil is cast out,” (meaning, cast out of Heaven), “he is incarnate then with the devil.” (In whom? In the false prophet.)

Now, let’s see both: the antichrist and Christ. Now notice, it says:

“[401] Three stages!” (meaning, there are three stages of the antichrist; he says), “The first, he’s a devil, to begin with, a spirit of the devil; then he becomes a false prophet, teacher of a false doctrine; next thing, he comes as the very devil himself, incarnate. See? There he is.

402 And at the same time that this devil falls out of Heaven and becomes incarnate in a man, the Holy Spirit goes up and comes down in carnate men.”

And at this end time both veils of flesh will be present, in which those two spirits will be incarnate: the spirit of the devil in the antichrist, in the man of sin; and the Spirit of Christ in another veil of flesh. Page 405 says, the second to last paragraph says [The Seals]:

“[202] And just about the time the antichrist moves hisself fully on the stre-…on the scene…”

In other words, when the antichrist, the false prophet, the man of sin; in other words, when the spirit of the wicked one in a veil of flesh, in the man of sin, comes in all his fullness, notice what will happen: that will be the beast already. But now notice:

“[202] And just about the time the antichrist moves hisself fully on the stre-…on the scene; God moves Hisself fully on, to redeem it all,” (in other words, for the redemption of the body, which is our transformation). “See, just run, just right together. And they’re, both, side by side. Cain and Abel! The crow and the dove, on the ark! Judas and Jesus! And just on down, you can take it.”

In other words, whenever a power of the enemy has come forth, a power of God has also come forth manifested in the midst of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ to combat, to fight, the power of the enemy, to fight the devil.

And now… let’s leave that alone there. We are in a very, very important time.

Anyone can say: “The forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ already left.” But the Angel said to him: “Your Message will introduce Christ. This Message will forerun.”²⁸ Therefore, the Message is still there; that is why that Message does not die, it is a Message that is alive to do that Work; and therefore, the fulfillment of what has been promised will be solid on the platform that was laid.

The platform is the Message that foreruns the Second Coming of Christ, that Message given by Christ in Holy Spirit through the forerunner: Rev. William Branham, who came like John the Baptist came.

And now, at this end time great things will be happening.

The question of Rev. William Branham was: “Will there be another revival, I’ll see another time?” And then he says: “From the West will come a white-horse Rider.”

And what is that? The Word, the Word made flesh in a Man. And there is the mystery; and there is the mystery of the Name as well, because that Rider will come with a Name that no one understands but He Himself.

Christ in Holy Spirit will come with a Name that no one understands, the Name that He received, the new Name that He received; and He will write It upon the Overcomer.

Therefore, the instrument He will have at the Last Day will be the Overcomer, the One who will obtain the Great Victory in Love Divine that has been promised, and he – in him He will have the Name of our God, the Name of the City of our God, and His new Name written.²⁹

Just like, where was the Name of God in the Old Testament? In His Angel, the Angel of the Lord.³⁰

Therefore, in the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ must be where He puts His new Name, and the Name of our God, and the Name of the City of our God.

The same thing the Father did with Jesus is what Jesus does with His Angel. Notice, He also says: “And he that overcometh, and keepeth My works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations, and he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of My Father.”

See? The same thing the Father did with Jesus, Jesus does with the Overcomer. That is why the ministry of the Two Olive Trees is a ministry with power and authority over peoples, nations, and tongues, and also over nature. Revelation chapter 11, verse 3 and on. And it says… That was Revelation chapter 2, verses 26 to 28. It also says: “And I will give him the morning star.”

Christ is the Morning Star; therefore, he will receive Christ in His Second Coming, and therefore, he will receive the Holy Spirit, and that Morning Star will become incarnate in him, that Pillar of Fire which led the Hebrew people.

Notice, let’s see so that you have a clear picture here: page 140 of the book of The Seals, says…

In Revelation 10, John (who typifies the Church, and typifies the messengers) seeing and receiving the Mighty Angel who comes down from Heaven, is showing that the Angel-Messenger of the Last Day will receive Christ, the Mighty Angel who comes down from Heaven with the little Book open in His Hand; and the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ too, because She is the One who will be granted that Title Deed when the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ receives It and shares It with Her.

Page 140 says, of the book of The Seals, Rev. William Branham, says:

“197 Now, we’ve saw…”

A little bit before that, it says (Revelation chapter 10, verse 1 and on says):

“[196] …I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud:…a rainbow…upon his head, and his face was…the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:

197 Now, we’ve saw the same thing, which was Christ. And we know Christ is always the Messenger to the Church. All right. He is called the Pillar of Fire, the Angel of the Covenant, and so forth.”

And now, Christ is the Mighty Angel who comes down from Heaven, who is called the Pillar of Fire; that is the Mighty Angel, the Angel of the Covenant, of Revelation chapter 10, and He comes with the little Book open in His hand.

Therefore, He is going to veil Himself and reveal Himself through the One who eats that little Book at the Last Day; the Word of God will be veiled and revealed in him and through him.

And now, we have seen that there is a great blessing for the elect of the Last Day, for the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ: it was said that there will be a revival, it was said that the white-horse Rider will bring that revival, and it was said that this Rider will come from the West.

Therefore, the manifestation of the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19 will be where? In the West. The West is the Western Hemisphere, the continent of the Americas.

The seventh Church age was fulfilled in the northern part, and God sent the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, the messenger of the seventh age; and of the continent of the Americas, of the territory of the West: we have Latin America and the Caribbean left.

That is why in another message: “The End-Time Evangelism” (or of the Last Day), it says: “He’ll come riding somewhere.”³¹

So, “somewhere;” and now in what we read here it says it will be in the West. And the Coming of the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19, Rev. William Branham says, is the Word of God incarnate in a man; the Word, the Word with a Name that no one understands.

But who would have imagined that Jesus had a new Name? But there it was, in the Scripture: Revelation chapter 3, verse 12, where it tells us:

“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall,” (not go out, or), “go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.”

And if He says that He will write It, do you believe He will do it? Amen. If He said so, He will do it, because it is a Divine promise.

Therefore, in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, at the Last Day a man will appear in whom Christ will fulfill these promises. Chapter 3, verse 12, says:

“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”

See? It is Christ in Holy Spirit saying these things; and therefore, it must be fulfilled in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and therefore, in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ a man will appear with the Name of our God, the Name of the City of our God and the new Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And since when will God write that Name? Since before appearing on Earth, He will already have It written; and that will be the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, whom John tried to worship.³²

Therefore, at the Last Day this Angel-Messenger will be in the midst of the Church in human flesh, and through that manifestation of Christ in Holy Spirit in that Angel-Messenger, we will be given the revival of the Last Day, and it will fulfill all the Divine requirements for the true revival of God.

Notice here, on pages 150 and 151… We can’t leave this out. It says, page 150, paragraph 1337, says [Quotations]³³:

1337 – “[44] He knows who to choose and who not to choose, what to do and when to do it,” (in other words, God knows what to do and how to do it). “No matter how much we think that a certain person is qualified to do a certain job, God knows who is qualified for the time and the season, or the time and the right time to do it.

45 And the real, true Christian; the real, true believer in God, waits upon the Lord for these things. Wait on your ministry. If you feel a call, be sure that it’s God. Be sure that it’s right. Be sure that it’s timely of what you’re saying.”

And on the same page, 150, paragraph 1341 says³⁴:

1341 – “[108] To keep God’s commandments, to do anything right for God, to do—do God a service correctly, there is five musts, to do God’s service correctly. (…)

[110] First, it must be His time to do it. (…)

[113] It must be in His season, time and season. (…)

[114] And it must be according to His Word that has been spoken,” (in other words, it must be here).

“(…) And it must be given according, to the person He has chosen to do it by,” (in other words, through whom He will do it).

It can’t be just anyone who says: “This is the time, a man must appear,” and says: “I want to be that man; I am going to fast, I am going to pray a lot, so that God uses me and fulfills that promise.” No. God already has the man predestinated before the foundation of the world, and it cannot be through another man.

He goes on to say:

1341 – “[114] And it must be given according, to the person He has chosen to do it by. (…)

[117] And it must come, first, to His prophets. (…)

[118] And the prophet must be vindicated by the Word of God.

[119] There is your five musts. It’s got to be that way.”

See? So, there are requirements for a revival in an age or in a dispensation, and those requirements must be fulfilled in order for it to truly be a revival of God, a revival of God given by the Holy Spirit through the person chosen for the Holy Spirit to manifest Himself and bring a revival to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; in the Old Testament it was to the Hebrew people.

Now, let’s continue on paragraph 1342… I told you that there is a revival from God, but there is also a human, intellectual revival in different times.

What the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ would be waiting for, as Rev. William Branham said, would be a revival of God, given by the Spirit of God; and therefore, all those requirements must be met. He must come by the Spirit of God through a prophet, with a Message from God for that time, at God’s appointed time. And God doesn’t have two major prophets at the same time.

And now, there are intellectual revivals, there are denominational revivals as well.

In God’s revival: it is through a man of God, of the mystical Body of Christ, with God’s revelation, with God’s Message for the people; and in that messenger the Spirit of God is bringing that revival; and therefore, He is bringing Life to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, He is bringing forth births of sons and daughters of God in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; because the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in each age, when God sends the messenger with the Message, with the Divine revelation, He sends that messenger, he proclaims the Message and a revival arises.

And God through His creative Word brings into existence, through the new birth, sons and daughters of God, sons and daughters of the second Adam and the second Eve; meaning, of the second Adam: Christ, and the second Eve, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and sons and daughters of God are born into the Kingdom of God with Eternal Life.

The revival brings Eternal Life to thousands or millions of people when that revival of God arises, and it arises according to the requirements established for that revival of God.

But human, denominational revivals have also taken place and continue to take place, and therefore, they are revivals in denominations; and they arise through denominational preachers, messengers. And what do those denominational revivals bring forth? More denominational children. See? That is the way it is, and we can’t do anything to stop it from being that way. And they arise with a denominational message, an intellectual message, a human message, a message of human interpretation.

But the true messenger of God, through whom God brings the revival of the Last Day, as it happened in past revivals, he brings the Message revealed by the Holy Spirit; and therefore, in that Message is the Divine revelation and the Divine interpretation of the prophecies pertaining to the time in which God sends that messenger, to bring the revival of the Last Day, as it was in past ages.

Nothing else will bring the revival of the Last Day, just like nothing else brought the revival of past ages, except the Holy Spirit through the messenger pertaining to each age.

God doesn’t change His order, He doesn’t change the way He works.

Therefore, with all these requirements, made available to all of us, we have the rule by which to judge what will be the revival of the Last Day and what will be human revivals.

And the elect will stay in and with the revival of God by His Holy Spirit through the instrument He will send; and He will give the rapturing faith, the faith to be changed and raptured, to God’s elect, to the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

That message will be the Great Voice of Trumpet, the Last Trumpet, with which the elect of the Last Day are called and gathered; the Great Voice of Trumpet, the Trumpet of God. As simple as that. It is the Great Voice of Trumpet of Jubilee Year.

The Great Voice of Trumpet of Jubilee Year for the Dispensation of the Grace already sounded: it is the Gospel of Grace. And the Great Voice of Trumpet for the Dispensation of the Kingdom, the Great Voice of Trumpet: the Gospel of the Kingdom.

In the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Gospel of Grace, we find that the mystery of the First Coming of Christ is revealed, It revolves around the First Coming of Christ and His death on Calvary’s Cross as the Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins.

And in the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which is the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Year of Jubilee… because it is to bring forth a physical Work: the physical transformation, it is to give us the faith to be changed.

Just as the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Gospel of Grace, the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Year of Jubilee in the Dispensation of Grace, is the preaching of Gospel of the Grace, to bring a faith to obtain the inner transformation, and thus obtain the new birth and obtain the heavenly body, and enter into the Kingdom of God.

And now, the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Gospel of the Kingdom, the Great Voice of Trumpet of Jubilee Year, will bring the same thing but in the physical realm, to give us the faith to be changed and raptured.

Remember that the Coming of the Lord has two parts: the First Coming as Lamb of God to die for us on Calvary’s Cross, and thus carry out the Work of Redemption, to carry out the Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins; and the Second part of the Coming of the Lord is the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lords of lords in His Claiming Work.

Likewise, the Trumpet of Jubilee Year has a twofold Message: the Message of the First Coming of Christ and the Message of the Second Coming of Christ; the Message of the Gospel of Grace and the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom; the Message of the Gospel of Grace for the Dispensation of Grace, and the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom for the Dispensation of the Kingdom; where it will be revealing Christ, revealing the mystery of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His Claiming Work; it will be revealing the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ with His Angels.

All of that pertains to the revival of the Last Day, which will be known and received by all of those who will have the Divine revelation of the requirements for a true revival of God. And he will be aligned with those Divine requirements; it can’t be any other way.

Therefore, we have seen: “THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A REVIVAL.”

And in plain words, we have seen the requirements for the revival of the Last Day for the Church and in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, where He will give us not only spiritual life, but eternal physical life: when He changes our physical bodies and gives us the glorified body, and for the dead in Christ: the resurrection in eternal and glorified bodies.

“THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A REVIVAL.”

We have seen it, and we have seen what produces a revival of God at the time in which God sends it; and it has always been according to the order required for a revival of God.

It’s not at any time nor in any… and not through any man, or in any place, either. It is in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, through the manifestation of the Holy Spirit in the man chosen for that work, for that purpose; and in the time appointed by God, chosen by God; and with the people appointed by God, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and from there it spreads to the whole world.

“THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A REVIVAL.”

And then people, ministers, must watch that they do not kill that revival, that the revival doesn’t die. If they add to or take away from the Word that God sends through the messenger of that time, what are they doing? They make the revival die; and those people will be condemned by God, for bringing death to the revival that God sent to His people.

It has been a great privilege for me to be with you on this occasion, testifying to you about: “THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A REVIVAL.”

May the blessings of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon all of you and also upon me; and may Christ manifest the revival of the Last Day without limitations.

And let’s all watch so that this revival remains at all times in the Church of Jesus Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone, which is the place for the revival of the Last Day; from which the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19 will rise, and will come from the West, in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which will be living in the stage of the West. That is where the Age of the Cornerstone will be born, grow and mature; and will reach perfection, and all the elect will also reach their perfection.

May Christ keep us, protect us and guide us, and may we never get in the way of God’s revival for this Last Day, and may we not be hindrances and may we not cause any problem that could cause the death of the revival of the Last Day.

And soon may Christ complete His Church and take us with Him to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in glorified bodies; may He raise the believers in Him who have died, and change us, and take us to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.

Well, it has been a great blessing and privilege for me to be with you on this occasion, testifying to you about: “THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A REVIVAL.”

And especially the requirements for the revival of this end time, because the requirements of revivals of past ages have already been fulfilled and have already taken place. Therefore, the important thing at this time is the revival that pertains to this end time.

May God continue to bless you all, and may you continue having a night filled with the blessings of Jesus Christ our Savior.

And pray for me a lot, so that tomorrow God gives me everything I must speak on the subject for tomorrow, which… let’s see what will be tomorrow’s subject, it will be: “THE BEST BLESSING RESERVED FOR THE LAST ONES.”

For the last ones or for the Last Days, Miguel? [Bro. Miguel: For the last ones]. In other words, for the people… for the last people, for the people… because the last shall be first and the first shall be last. Let’s see…

[Bro. Miguel: “THE BLESSING RESERVED FOR THE LAST ONES.” I think that is referring to the people].

The last people. Here in Ecclesiastes, it tells us that the… What does it tell us there in Ecclesiastes, Miguel? “Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof.”³⁵

And in Matthew 19, verses 27 to 30, what does it tell us, Miguel? “The last shall be first and the first shall be last.”

[Bro. Miguel: Exactly, yes. “The last… Many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.”]

That is also in the parable of the laborers.

Well, let’s leave it for tomorrow. [Bro. Miguel: The wine as well…] The best wine, in the marriage in Cana, the best wine was the last one.³⁶ And there is Rain – the former Rain and Latter Rain, of the harvest.

Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: the harvest is better than the sowing. During the sowing one is investing; in the harvest one is receiving, obtaining the benefits. But since the laborer must have patience: to sow, to water, and see that the crops grow and bear fruit; and wait, after seeing that it is bearing fruit, wait for the fruit to ripen in order to harvest, to obtain the fruit of his work.

Well, that is for tomorrow, let’s leave that for tomorrow, because if not… [Bro. Miguel: We got a head start.] No, let’s leave it alone. Tomorrow, well, God will give us everything He has for tomorrow.

Remember that the great blessing is for this end time. The only group of believers who receive the Former Rain and Latter Rain is the group of the Last Day; and it is the group to whom, according to Zechariah 10, verse 1, and other Scriptures, such as Joel 2, it is said: “Ask of the Lord rain in the time of (what?) the latter rain.”

The only ones who could ask for the Latter Rain, were who? Us; because the ones of other ages could not ask for that Latter Rain of the harvest because it wasn’t for them, only the Former Rain; but the Latter Rain is for us. That is why it is the only group that has two Rains: that has the Teaching Rain of the Gospel of Grace (which is the Former Rain) and the Teaching Rain of the Gospel of the Kingdom.

The Teaching Rain of the Gospel of Grace: the Teaching Rain of the First Coming of Christ and His Work of Redemption; and the Latter Rain of the Teaching of the Second Coming of Christ, under the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom.

See? Everything is simple. And everything must be revealed in a simple way, in a humble way, so that the simple people, the humble people, understand it in their own way of speaking. That is why also, notice, it says of the apostles that they were common people, they spoke in those terms; and Christ also spoke in the terms of common people.

And at this end time it must also be the same way when the Message comes to the people: simple. And those who are at a very high level, well, they can come down to take the Food and feed their souls.

Look, when the manna would come from heaven and quails would also come (manna in the morning and quails in the evening, breakfast and dinner: cereal in the morning and meat in the evening), what would happen? Everyone small and big had to get down to pick up their food.³⁷

And every person must come down before the presence of God to gather the Food for his soul. He cannot say: “I want It to be given to me on silver or gold platters,” in elevated terms; but rather, the things of God come in simple terms, in simplicity, so that everyone can understand.

And, look, those who are at a high level, when they were young they knew the common level, because in schools there were people who spoke in the common language of the people; and if they would go to the stores they also heard people speaking in the common language of the people.

There is a saying about someone who… they say, it’s a joke about someone who left to… who used to live in Puerto Rico and grew up in the countryside cutting down plantains and grasses with a machete, and digging out grass with a hoe; and then he left to the United States, to New York; and when he returns, and goes back to where he had lived, he comes speaking a lot of English and very polished, and: “This…?” in English: “What is this?” (“And what is that thing?”), and pretending he didn’t know the tools with which he had worked as a young boy.

And what happened to him? The hoe is laying like this, he is walking, and when he stands here, the hoe goes like this³⁸ and hits him, and then he remembered what it was called. “This hoe (or this azada, over there we call it azada) hit me in the forehead!” In other words, it refreshed his memory, it brought the common things back to his memory.

And sometimes, one needs a blow to remember the simple things; and the Word of God gives that blow to people’s forehead, their mind, and It brings us back to the simple way of the days of Jesus and the apostles.

Well, let’s stop here, Miguel. God bless and keep you. This has been, from what we can see, the dessert.

May God bless you and keep you. And with us again Rev. Miguel Bermúdez Marín.

And to those who are connected through the internet and satellite in the different nations: may God bless you and keep you all as well.

And those who are in other nations, also pray a lot for tomorrow’s service, God willing, so that God gives us great blessings that are promised for the revival of this end time.

We can ask for blessings, why? Because they are promised for the revival of the Last Day; therefore, we are asking according to the will of whom? Of God.

In the Latter Rain there are great blessings. And He said: “Ask for the Rain in the time of the Latter Rain:” showers of blessing and rain of Divine revelation.

Well, with us again, Rev. Miguel Bermúdez Marín, to continue.

Let’s all be working hand in hand in the missionary work that our brother and missionary, Rev. Miguel Bermúdez Marín, is carrying out; and thus, in everything he does in the missionary work, we will also have a part in that missionary work.

He is leaving soon, is it this month? July 4th, to Africa; and I will go with him, I will go with him hand in hand in different ways; even if I don’t physically go with him, but I will go with him in the Message, I will go with him financially, I will go with him in prayer, and so on. Even if I am not physically present, I will be with him in all the other ways, and in spirit too.

We can also think, when we pray, and see him working there, and be with him too. God opened that door in Africa, and we don’t know if the last elect are Africans.

When they heard something in a message, they searched for a quote for him where Brother Branham said something (and Miguel can read that to you wherever he has it, or if he has it nearby or if he recalls) about the last sheep.³⁹

Let’s let Miguel be the one to tell you, because he was the one who heard it, heard them claiming that… 145? Miguel will read it to you. And we wouldn’t (let’s say), we wouldn’t mind if it’s an African or if it’s someone from another nation. The important thing is that the very last elect comes in; and when he comes in, the dead in Christ will be resurrected and we will be changed. Therefore, if the last one is in Africa, we will take the Message to him all the way over there.

Well, may God continue to bless you all.

With us now, Rev. Miguel Bermúdez Marín.
