Circular Letter April 2020
I say this as an eye and ear witness in reverence before the LORD: As everyone knows, I had the privilege of being in several of Brother Branham's meetings. When praying for the sick, he could often say, "Now the supernatural light, now the pillar of fire is above this person and that person." Even particular details about the person for whom he was to pray were revealed to him. In the many years of his ministry, he was able to say more than a thousand times, "THUS SAITH THE LORD …"
On January 20, 1950, when Brother Branham preached in the large Coliseum in the City of Houston, Texas, about eight thousand people were gathered. As he spoke, the press photographers James Ayers and Ted Kippermann took some pictures of him. During the development of the films, they discovered that only a single picture turned out, namely the one of Brother Branham with the supernatural light above his head.
The man in charge of questioned documents at the FBI in Washington, Dr. George J. Lacy, examined the photograph and wrote in his report on January 29, 1950, that the light was indeed above the preacher, otherwise the camera could not have captured it. And God Himself has always provided the confirmation time and again.
In December 1962, Brother Branham moved to Tucson, Arizona, as commanded by the LORD in March 1962. And it came to pass that on February 28, 1963, the supernatural cloud was widely visible to everyone in the blue sky. In the cloud, which appeared over Sunset Mountain, Brother Branham saw seven angels, and there the man of God was commanded: "Return to Jeffersonville, for the seven seals will be opened."
For its edition dated April 19, 1963, the well-known Science magazine even put the picture of the cloud on the cover page. Life magazine of May 17, 1963, published an article with a photo of the cloud under the title "And a High Cloud Ring of Mystery." Dr. James McDonald from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Tucson wrote a long article about it but had no explanation for it. I still have both of the magazines.
