Hebrews 6:5 – Who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the power of the age to come.

William Branham’s Prophecy Brother Branham said, "I've been in this season where we laid hands on people one at a time and we saw blind eyes open, cancers disappear, the lame walk. And oh, it was wonderful.”

But he said, "I am about to leave you because God is done with me but another season is coming. And this season is going to be teaching and revelation of the Word of Jesus Christ. This teaching season will go for a while, and then it will come to a close.”

“Then God is going to take every move of God in history, and even what we witnessed and what we saw in Bible days, and put it all together in one great Holy Ghost bomb and drop it on Planet Earth and the nations will rock and reel with the power of God like we've never seen.

“Prime Time News will show the dead being raised and limbs created and eyes being put back in eye sockets and arms stretching out. And preachers won't lay their hands on them like we did; they will simply speak the word and blindness will leave. There'll be so many people, no auditorium, no church and no arena will hold the people. They'll even stand in an open field. It's going to happen in America."

Hosea 6:2-3 – After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will restore us, that we may live in His presence. 3 Let us acknowledge the Lord; let us press on to acknowledge Him. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains that water the earth. (NIV)

Hosea 6:6 – For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings.

Smith Wigglesworth “He exclaimed, ‘I see it! I see it!’ I asked, ‘What do you see?’ Shutting his eyes again, he said, ‘I see the greatest revival in the history of mankind coming to Planet Earth, maybe as never before. And, I see the dead raised. I see every form of disease healed. I see whole hospitals emptied with no one there. Even the doctors are running down the streets shouting.

“He continued, ‘There will be untold numbers of uncountable multitudes that would be saved. No man will say, ‘so many, so many’, because nobody will be able to count those who come to Jesus. No disease will be able to stand before God’s people. “It will be a world-wide situation, not local, he said. A world-wide thrust of God’s power and God’s anointing upon mankind.” (Source: Lester Sumrall, Pioneers of Faith, p.p )

Testimonies from Africa One Muslim leader is quoted as saying, “We are losing to the Christians in Africa. They are raising the dead!” “I am writing to you from Mali. We have had a marvelous week here. We have 'emptied' two hospitals - the first time all the patients and all of the staff were healed. In the second hospital, only those we prayed for were healed. God is good! Three Muslim radio stations asked us if we could come and preach on the radio."

Hosea 6:2b – On the third day [or on the 3,000th year], He will restore us [WHY?], that we might live in His Presence. Acts 3:21 – He [Jesus] must remain in heaven until the time comes for God to restore everything, as He promised long ago through His holy prophets. (NIV) Restore = 2 nd Coming

Hosea 6:2 – After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will restore us, that we may live in His presence.

Hosea 6:3a – Let us acknowledge the Lord; let us press on to acknowledge Him. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear.
