Question: Brother Branham, what shall we do? Something has settled over me that I cannot break through. Last fall, I dreamed I was lost in white sand. It was getting dark; I couldn’t find my way. This dream has stayed with me since last fall. Now, I am as one groping in darkness. My son (E-r-v-...), Ervin, and wife were included in my dream. Now, they are also in darkness. We are in desperate–we are in desperation. I believe God will show you what is–what is in our hearts now. (Mrs...Oh, all right.) If we are wrong or sinning places, tell us. We want to be right.
98 I don’t know the lady, but I just feel if you’re here, lady, that here is your trouble. You have let something happen to you that’s made you nervous, because being in “white sands” represents purity and righteous. And you’re just letting Satan put one over on you. Your dream proved that there’s nothing wrong. You’re only nervous, and by doing this and thinking this, you’re making the rest of your family nervous. Stop doing it; claim your God given rights. Your dream proves by the interpretation that you are in white sands. Everything’s all right. It’s you, yourself, nervous.
99 And you let one member of the family get nervous, it goes to the next member, and the next member, and the first thing you’re all fussing and going on. And one member of the family gets kinda upset about something, it upsets the other, and the other, and the other, the first thing you know the whole family’s upset. It’s Satan. Then if one member of the family rejoices, let the rest of them rejoice with it. So every one of the family try to do that.
100 Try, each one of you children, to help your papa, mama. Mama, you...Papa, you try to help the children. Don’t let that gloomy, unbelieving spirit get around you. You are Christians. You are borned of the Spirit of God. You’re the salt of the earth. You have God given rights. And the Bible said, “If there be any praise, if there be any virtue, think on these things.” Don’t think about the wrong thing. And Sister, I think that’s your trouble, Sister dear. I could dwell on that a long time, but according to what I promised, just twenty minutes...And I’d like to get just as many of these...if it ain’t, put it back on the desk and I’ll get it again.
