"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever." In this second-to-last service before his departure for South Africa, Rev. William Branham addresses a New York audience on the difference between mental hope and spiritual faith.

Sermon Highlights:

A Night of Prevailing Prayer: The speaker shares how he stayed up until 3:00 AM in deep prayer until the Lord "sent His great power down" to reveal a specific matter on his mind, proving that God still speaks to those who seek Him.

The "Sixth Sense" of Faith: A definitive teaching on the human makeup. The speaker explains that while the five natural senses contact the earthly realm, the "sixth sense" (Faith) is the only faculty that can contact God and possess a miracle before the physical body feels it.

Hope vs. Faith: A vital distinction. The message teaches that "hope" is a mental expectation of something in the future, but "faith" is a present substance that considers the work finished the moment the Word is spoken.

The Conflict of Senses: An exhortation to disregard "symptoms" when they contradict the Promise of God. The speaker uses the illustration of the three Hebrew children in the fiery furnace—their senses reported heat and death, but their faith reported protection and the presence of the Fourth Man.

The Physical Toll of Discernment: A rare, candid look into the evangelist’s physical condition. During the prayer line, he becomes so weak that he has to call for a drink of water and for his associates, Brother Richey and Brother Bosworth, to support him as "virtue" leaves his body.

The Cursing of Disease: The service concludes with a high-stakes prayer of mass deliverance. The speaker "curses every disease" in the building in the Name of Jesus Christ, adjuring the spirits of infirmity to leave the people so they can go home whole.

Key Quote: "I'm a little tired tonight... but I stayed right up and prayed until He sent His great power down and revealed it to me... Our hope is not in ourselves, but in the living God."

Scripture Reference: Hebrews 13:8; Hebrews 11:1; Daniel 3:25.

Note on the Series:
This message was delivered on the final Saturday of the September 1951 New York campaign. It provides a window into the intense spiritual and physical pressure the speaker was under as he prepared to travel "many thousand miles away" for the historic South African revival.
