Sinned Against Your Husband, Not The Lord
There was a young girl. She's perhaps setting here this morning. I don't see her, but she comes sparingly. She's a member of a church in New Albany, a very prominent church, an outstanding church in New Albany. I've been down there. She wants... She's got a mental condition of kind of a psychoneurosis. And she can't--she won't even leave the city or anywhere; she starts screaming and crying, going on. So I--I prayed for her two or three times, but something wouldn't let me challenge that demon somehow. I don't know; I just couldn't do it. She's a good friend to a nurse that lives in the neighborhood there. They come up there. She's getting worse. She's been that way for about eight years.
And so she come up the other day, and she said... I told her; I said, "Sis, the only thing I know, that there's a cause there somewhere. I--I don't know what it is." I said, "I... If you could come up..."
She said, "I've been prayed for; my pastor..." And said, "My pastor sent me up here, said, 'Go see Brother Billy and see what he'll say.'"
Well now, I said, "I don't--I don't know, sis," I said, "I'm just like your pastor." I said, "Have you confessed all your sins?"
"Everything."
Sunday school teacher, has a great class, doing a good work. But just that hung over her. Well, I--I didn't know what to do. You just about imagine how I'd feel. I--I just didn't know what to do. We took her in the room. I said, "All right, come on up." When people come, we just stopped everything. I got her in a room. I set down and just started talking about genealogies and about the beginning, the origin of time, and everything, and watching her. It was that same morning. God's always there at the crucial moment, you know. And after while I looked out; there come a vision moving up. I seen an automobile going swiftly.
I said, "Your conditions has something to do with an automobile."
She said, "No, I never was in a wreck."
I said, "Just set humble." Said, "I see you in a car. You almost get hit by a train."
She--she jumped, she said, "Oh."
And I said, "Yes. You're not with your husband. You're with another man. Your husband was overseas in war at that time." Went ahead and begin to bring it on down. I said, "The things that you done, the immoral things, you told him about some of it, but you didn't tell him about it all." And she started screaming, holding her face like that. I said, "You was going to have an operation not long ago too for your tonsils; you was afraid to take anesthetic afraid you'd tell that under the..." She just screamed and fell on the floor.
She said, "That's the truth."
I said, "How can you ever get anywhere with that hanging?"
She said, "I asked God to forgive me."
I said, "You never sinned against God, you sinned against your husband and vows." I said, "You go back and make that right, then come. I can control that demon then. See?"
And I said, "By the way, your husband..." I described how he looked; never seen him in my life; I said, "He's got the same thing to confess to you." I said, "Now, if you don't believe it, call him on the phone and tell him to meet you." She went in and called him on the phone. They met on the road. Here they come back, tears running down their cheeks, forgive one another. The demon left her, and there she was free. See?
Now, I might've screamed and hollered over that demon, and cast, and everything else, and it'd never left till that was corrected. See? See, you've got to find the cause before you can find the cure."
