Many years ago in a small log cabin, God sent us a baby who was a special baby.
“When I was born in a little Kentucky cabin up there, the Angel of the Lord come in the window and stood there. There was a Pillar of Fire.”
The dawn was just starting to pierce the darkness of the cool April sky. The single, wooden window rose open to let the morning light into the tiny one-room cabin. A robin standing next to the window seemed to be especially excited this morning and was singing to the top of his lungs. Inside the cabin, a youthful Charles Branham put his hands into his brand-new pair of overalls and looked down at his 15 year-old wife. “We will call his name William,” said the father.
Into the window came a supernatural Light. The Light moved through the room and hovered over the bed where the baby was just born. This was the same Light that brought the Hebrew children out of Egypt. It was the same Light that met Paul on his road to Damascus. And It would go on to lead this little baby to call a Bride of Christ out of the world. That Light was none other than the Angel of the Lord, the Pillar of Fire; and It had once again appeared to man.
And in there, in this little log cabin, that morning on April the 6th, the midwife opened up the window so the light could shine in to let Mama and Papa see what I looked like. Then a Light about the size of a pillow came whirling through the window. It circled around where I was, and went down on the bed. Several of the mountain people were standing there. They were crying.
The humble home was in the hills of southern Kentucky, near the small town of Burkesville. The date was April 6, 1909. The baby was the first of ten children that would be born to Charles and Ella Branham. www.themessage.com
We spent the day together with our children and each age group constructed a log cabin, whether it was big or small.

One brother put these together for children ages 5-9. It was a fun project!! Each child then put the sides to the house and then the roof... |
 |
Jubilee enjoyed putting single shingles on the roof... |

A picture of her class.... |

The finished cabin... They used a stain made of steel wool, soaked in vinegar. |
 |
She did a good job... :) |

We listened to a quote about some of the foods he used to eat when he was a boy and then had a tasting table for the little ones to try. Mulligan stew, sassafras tea, black-eye peas, cornbread with molasses, buttermilk ( from our kitchen) and Bro. Branham's favorite peppermint candy! |
 |
Some were eager tasters and some not... Jubilee wanted to taste everything!! |
 |
Sister Mary put log cabins on top of cupcakes for all of us... |
 |
The Pillar of Fire.... |
 |
And the older boys really made a big cabin... :) |
 |
Last touches... |
 |
Then the stain..... |

And the finished project..:) It was a day that will be remembered by all!! We are so thankful to God for sending us a prophet for our day!
. He was in Moses, He was in David, He was in Elijah, He was in the rest of them, to reveal God’s promise of that age. God lotted His Word to each age, and He sends a prophet, and the Word goes to the prophet and straightens it out, and that’s exactly what He has done through all ages. And He is God, and changes not. Jesus Christ is that Prophet tonight that stands among us. He is the One here in the form of the Holy Ghost, Who knows everything, and can reveal anything that He desires to do. 64-0305 - Perseverant Rev. William Marrion Branham http://table.branham.org
