20-0202E: COMMUNION [PART 16]:FROM PRODIGALITY TO COMMUNION:AN ETERNAL INFLUENCE FROM AN ETERNAL WORLD.
Preacher: Pastor L.T. Mutasa
Scriptures: Luke 15:11-18; 1 Samuel 17:33; Judges 16:21-28
SERMON NOTES
Luke 15:11-18 ~ This is clearly a story of a young man who took his inheritance and went to a faraway country. In as much as he did that, that he went to a faraway land and lived riotously, so did we come into this world as prodigal sons, but we must forget that this world is not our home.
You cannot satisfy the pigs/demons, they are insatiable. They even come to church and eat the Word just like the crow eats wheat with the dove but it also goes on to eat dead rats and rabbits, things which the dove can’t eat because it doesn’t have gall or bile to digest such things.
The prodigal son’s memory took him back to where he came from. This is important in the Message of the hour. There is a history that separates you as a real believer from a nominal believer.
What this is bringing us to is to a memory of our origin, but you cannot remember where you have never been. The prodigal son remembered the father because he was once with the father.
The Lamb was slain in eternity, communion took place in eternity, and fellowship took place in eternity. You had fellowship with God in eternity.
When the prodigal son was in the pig sty, he remembered that his father’s servants had enough good food to spare, yet there he was, feeding on pig food.

151 So beautifully displayed in the prodigal son. “I was lost.” “This is my son. He was lost and now he’s found. He was dead, and he’s alive again. Bring forth the fatted calf, the best robe, a ring and put it on his finger. And let’s…” No wonder when the morning stars sang together, the sons of God shouted for joy, when they seen the plan of salvation, God putting your name on the Book before the foundation of the world.
[REV. WILLIAM MARRION BRANHAM]
When you bypassed your theophany and came into this world, you came as a prodigal son. The real you is lost in another land. The real you is not supposed to live in this body of flesh.
There is a world where there is no tire, no anger, but a land of a sweet-forever. We are on a journey that started in the mind of God, and we will end in a glorified body.

109 You came from where? You go to where? You came out of Eternity. You stepped into a little space called time. You go out of time into Eternity. And what you are in your soul, as you go out, the same you’ll be. Oh, my. All right.
[REV. WILLIAM MARRION BRANHAM]

47 And when a man loves a woman and marries her because she’s just pretty, there’ll be an end to that. But when a man finds a woman that he loves, he don’t know why, but he loves her. And she finds a man that she loves, no matter what he looks like. He loves her. She loves him. That’s an Eternal mate in Glory. They’ll s-…Death nor nothing else can ever separate them, because they are from Eternity. And they stepped out, in the space of time, and will return back to Eternity. Eternity has dropped down in a body, called time, then goes right back up into Eternity again. It cannot perish.
[REV. WILLIAM MARRION BRANHAM]
Love is not an outward thing for such kind of love perishes. It’s only true love when it’s based on

149 And the great High Priest, Melchisedec, will come some day. And we’ll eat the communion, anew, with Him, in the Kingdom of God, one of these great, glorious days! Oh, I’m so happy, tonight, to be in the Kingdom! Yes, sir. Some great day, some marvellous day, “Time shall be no more!”
150 See, we come out of Eternity. We was, before there was a world. Did you know that? God made man in His Own image.
[REV. WILLIAM MARRION BRANHAM]
It was discouraging for a man in theophany, Brother Branham when he went beyond the curtain of time, to go back into the old carcase, his body that he had left lying on the bed.
This Bride must come out of prodigality and enter into communion with God. You must cry, “Remember me Lord, as I remember You, I am feeding with pigs, take me where I belong”.
Don’t put confidence in the flesh. As long as you are in the flesh, you are a prodigal son and there is no rejoicing. Our joy is on the other side, when we cross to that Eternal Land.
Communion declares and brings to pass all the promises that God made in the Bible.

88 Now, to be a true Christian, you have to be the same. We don’t want to forget that. All that He was, I’m identified with Him. I’m identified with Him.
89 Notice, and He is in me, and I in Him. Notice, then, every Christian that’s a real genuine Christian—Christian, was with Him, “When the morning stars sang together and the sons of God shouted for joy, before there was a foundation of the world.” We were identified in the immortal realms with God, ten million years before the world was ever formed. I was back there with Him. If I got Eternal Life, I was there with Him. I was identified with Him, “When the morning stars sang together and the sons of God shouted for joy.”

129 And I don’t want you to miss this. It has changed me. I can’t be the same Brother Branham that I was.
[REV. WILLIAM MARRION BRANHAM]
Satan knows, and he must know, that you know that he knows that you are eternal. You are only younger than satan in terms of expression. You are only a youth in terms of time, otherwise you sat down with God, and planned how the devil should operate until his destruction in the lake of fire, just as any good husband sits and plans with his wife.
1 Samuel 17:33 ~ David here was a boy that had been transmitted into the land of far distances where he saw the true version of himself.

133 And David said, “Who is this fellow?” Said, “Do you mean to tell me, you’ll let that uncircumcised Philistine stand out there and defy the armies of the living God? Can’t we have somebody to stand there and witness for the powers of God!” All of them was scared. He said, “I’ll go.” I like that courage. “I’ll go. Let me fight him.”
134 Why, he walked up. They took him up to Saul, and Saul said, “Well, that man is a warrior from his…Why, he’s been a warrior from his youth, and you ain’t nothing but a youth.”
135 “Look!” Hallelujah! I love it right here. David said, “Look, thy servant…” to Saul. “The Lord let me kill a bear, with this slingshot. He let me take a kid out of a lion’s mouth and slay him. I grabbed him by the whiskers and took it away from him. I’m a witness.” Hallelujah! He had been somewhere. He had seen something. He had put the Power of God to a test, and he was a witness.

Judges 16:21-28 ~ God has to translate you to see that Eternal Land, the Land of far distance. This is the season when Samson’s locks of hair have grown again, the anointing and power has been restored again.
