54-0514 The Seal Of God

"Knowing Him in the Power of His resurrection." In this deeply moving Friday night service from the 1954 Seven Church Ages series, the prophet contrasts the deception of the enemy with the absolute security of the believer: the Seal of God. Speaking to his home congregation as the sun sets over the tabernacle, he opens the Scriptures to show that the Holy Spirit is the ultimate token of protection and eternal life for the Bride of Christ. Sermon Highlights: Reflections at Sunset: Listening to special music as the day closes, the prophet reflects on the twilight of life. He shares his deep desire to wrap his garments around him at the end of the journey, knowing Christ not just in word, but in the present reality of His resurrecting power. The Preliminary Resurrection: The message highlights that believers do not have to wait for the future to experience victory; receiving Eternal Life through Jesus Christ serves as a preliminary resurrection right now from spiritual death unto Life. The Nature of the Seal: Moving deep into the prophetic scriptures, the prophet identifies the True Seal of God as the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. He warns that while the world rushes toward human systems and spiritual deception, the chosen of God are securely sealed until the day of redemption. Blessing the Local Assembly: The prophet pauses to speak a special blessing over the local assembly, praying for the strength of the local pastor and dedicating the members and the strangers resting within the gates to God's care. Preparations for Baptism: Looking forward to the continuation of the meetings, he prays for a special anointing to fall upon the baptismal waters, asking the Holy Ghost to perform great signs and wonders through the ordinance. A Fellowship Dismissal: The evening concludes with a warm pastoral exhortation for the believers to shake hands, ponder the deep things of the Word in their hearts, and return the following night bringing their written prayer requests to lay upon the pulpit. Key Quote: "I know Him in the Power of His resurrection, that, when He calls out from among the dead, I'll be called out with them... May we go home tonight and ponder these things in our heart; return back tomorrow night, rejoicing, bringing with us sheaves." Scripture Reference: Revelation 7:1-4; Ephesians 4:30; Ephesians 1:13; Philippians 3:10. #TheProphet #TheSealOfGod #BranhamTabernacle #Jeffersonville1954 #BookOfRevelation #HolySpirit #EndTimes #BibleProphecy #ResurrectionPower #Faith Note on the Service: This May 1954 recording captures the third installation of the intensive prophetic study series at the Branham Tabernacle. Stripped of the fast-paced environment of the massive overseas healing campaigns, this service highlights the prophet's pastoral heart. By focusing on the absolute security of the Holy Spirit as the "Seal," the message provides an anchor of faith for the believer during the closing hours of time.
