The Lord Is Our Refuge

God has given every creature a way to protect itself. We also have a way of protection. The Lord is our refuge. The body and blood of Jesus Christ are a wall of protection around about us. It is an invisible shield that is available anytime, but we have to focus on the Lord to get it.

Objective Discipline

A stubborn, rebellious person who cannot be entreated can be a hazard to the people of God. However, a church must be objective. Church discipline is usually detrimental because of the lack of forgiveness. Mercy and grace are to be without limitation wherever there is a repentant heart.

The Force Of A Right Spirit

There is a tremendous force that the prayer of faith releases. We dissipate that force by having a wrong spirit. If you judge your brother, God will judge you. Your lack of forgiveness nullifies the blessing of God upon your life. You cannot have a wrong spirit and prosper. A right spirit brings the flow of life and health to your spirit and to your physical body.

Encouragement On Dedication

God’s purposes in the earth are so great but often believers are lacking in dedication. This walk with God demands the same dedication that the disciples in the early Church had. There are times when it appears as though God has turned away from you. Learn to be a worshiper; worship will open the door for God to manifest His presence. Determine, “I am a servant of God; I will serve wherever He places me.”

Upon This Rock Of Revelation

The apostle Peter was not the “rock” on which the church was built. What is the rock? It is the rock of revelation that Jesus is the Christ. You do not really have faith until you have this foundation. Seek Him until the revelation of Christ is real to your own spirit.

Feast On His Provision

In this Communion, we meditate upon Psalm 126 as we appropriate the life and strength that is in the body and blood of Jesus Christ. We have been called to sow in tears, but the harvest shall be great. The Lord will change the course of our lives. As we face real difficulties, let us feast on His provision.

Available MP3 Download: The Necessity Of Humility / How God Reached Peter’s Subconscious Mind, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, May 29, 1966. Hidden Treasure.

The Necessity Of Humility

It is easy to be dedicated to a finished product without being dedicated to the process that produces the final result. What is the process that leads to authority? Authority is almost always commensurate with humility. Spiritual pride drains off the power of a ministry; for this reason, humility is essential. Also included is an exhortation on fullness.

How God Reached Peter’s Subconscious Mind

The apostle Peter, in his spirit, was still a Jew. God had to reach down to his subconscious mind to show him that He loved the Gentiles and was opening the door of salvation to them. Like Peter, we have to go further than just accepting the truth of this walk with God in our minds; we must learn to respond to Him in the depth of our spirits.

Available MP3 Download: Learn To Live With Change / The Attitudes Of Humility And Waiting On God — Part II / Keep Your Eyes On The Divine Element, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, May 22, 1966. Hidden Treasure.

Learn To Live With Change

We are living in a time of transition, when relationships and situations are changing. You will not feel any sense of security, except in the presence of the Lord. Learn to practice His presence, and to sacrifice the good things for the better, and the better things for the best.

The Attitudes Of Humility And Waiting On God — Part II

God dwells on a dual throne in the highest of heavens and in the humble spirit. We acquire the attributes of His presence by an attitude that waits on the Lord. This message gives keys to that prayer of listening — waiting on the Lord.

Keep Your Eyes On The Divine Element

In our ministries, there will always be the human element. We must look past their human frailties and see the divine element. As it was with Jesus Christ, the real miracle is that, unless you have faith in God, you will miss what God has put in the human channel to give you. The service began with seeking the Lord for a heart of repentance.

The Overflowing Spirit

There is a basic selfishness in all of us. Yet, the greater the flow of ministry through you, the less attention you will need to give to your own needs. The inflow depends on your dedication to an outflow. This involves an element of reckless faith.

Relating To Spiritual Authority

In relating to spiritual authority, people tend to err in two extremes. 1) They look at the humanity of the vessel and fail to see the divine anointing in that person. 2) Or, they refuse to see the humanity of the vessel but see the person as infallible. Both extremes are wrong; we need to see each other in the light of God’s Word. Your attitude toward the elders of the church is of supreme importance. It is your acceptance of both their humanity and the divine deposit within them that enables you to receive miracle power at their hands.

Available MP3 Download: His Constant Provision / The Older Brother Spirit / The Principle Of Extravagance, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, May 15, 1966. Hidden Treasure.

His Constant Provision

In this communion, we are reminded of God’s constant provision and care for us. We simply appropriate His life and entrust our lives completely into His hands.

The Older Brother Spirit

In the story of the prodigal son, the older brother who stayed home had more of a need than his brother who went away. The older brother was very self-righteous and became wrong in his spirit towards his brother. He was thinking only of himself, which was a sign of his immaturity. We must have a right spirit and a real deep concern for our brother.

The Principle Of Extravagance

The principle of extravagance has to be understood. It is the law of harvest. When you give yourself to ministering to others, the Lord will take care of your personal needs. When you open your heart to this principle, God starts a grace flowing toward you. This message should help you in your finances, and in the way you approach God.

Loose Them And Let Them Go!

The story of the resurrection of Lazarus gives us an illustration of how people, after being delivered from sin, may still have the wrapping of death upon them.  They may still need to be freed from habits, bondages, or deep ruts within their spirits. As Christians, we must be willing to get involved and, with love, remove the wrappings of death from our brother.

The Perils Of Discipleship

Disciples are rather rare. Discipleship involves a total cost and dedication. This heart-searching message uncovers the perils of discipleship and brings us a step closer to the total discipleship that God wants of us.

You’ll Find Him Where You Left Him — Part I

The story of how Mary lost Jesus in the temple at Passover reminds us of the perilous time that we live in. We must be very careful and vigilant not to lose His presence or to lose our awareness of Him. It can take longer to find the Lord again, than it did to lose Him in the first place. Turn your heart back to the Lord; you will find Him where you left Him.

God’s Presence Is Our Security

What is our source of comfort? God is with us! Open your heart to the permanence that is in God. “The grass withereth and the flower fadeth, but the Word of God abideth forever.” The Word is our security. Upon this premise, we take a step of faith today in this communion service, and we open our hearts to a deeper dedication to the Lord.

The Attitudes Of Humility And Waiting On God — Part I

This message addresses two attitudes of heart: humility and waiting on the Lord. God has dual thrones: He dwells both in the highest of heavens and with the humble of heart. Your life must not be lived in your own strength. Humility brings God’s presence into your life. When you expectantly wait on God, there is a transfer from Him to you of divine life. Waiting on the Lord is the most important prayer you can do.

God’s Protection

The presence of the Lord in the communion table is one of the most solemn truths in all our faith. It represents God’s protection, His deliverance. Have you developed an awareness of your problems, or of His presence? God is right here with you; practice His presence.

The Security Of The Man Who Thoroughly Trusts In God

Decide whether you are going to live with an awareness of your problems or an awareness of the Lord. If you live in God, His promises, protections, and immunities are yours. The Lord is everywhere! But you must develop an awareness of Him and learn to abide in His presence. This message is an expository on Psalm 91.

Focus Your Faith!

As believers, we must come to grips with the fact that we not only have faith, but we also have unbelief. We want the victorious faith that wholly focuses everything within our being upon the Word that God has spoken, and trusts it. This faith also involves an agreement with the will of God. When we pray in the Holy Spirit with this focused faith, we can move mountains!

Deliverance From Unbelief

If you want to be a person of faith, you must not only believe God’s Word, but you must be delivered from the unbelief and reservations buried deep within you.  The Holy Spirit has the ability to delve into the depths of your mind and spirit, and to effectively bring release from the subconscious barriers to faith.  The first step towards this deliverance is to give God your worship and praise.

The Miracle Of The Loaves And Fishes

The greatest truth that we can learn is to draw the life of Jesus Christ and partake of it. The time of miracles and the time of renewal is at the communion table, where we appropriate the life of Christ.

Be Fruitful And Grow

God demands fruitfulness in the lives of His people. His dealings on your life are for your maturity. What should accompany your salvation? If you constantly take in and do not minister out, you will reach a point of stagnation. However, you will grow as you become a fruitful, productive believer.

Lord, Let Us Be Fruitful!

This church is to have an outreach to the whole world and to convey the message that God is giving to this generation. We must realize that the gifts of the Spirit are given to us as tools to get the job done: to be witnesses of Jesus Christ to the world. Lord, let this church be fruitful!

Partake Of The Life Of God

At the communion table, Jesus was not establishing a religious ritual; He was bringing forth a way by which you can partake of the life of God. This is the wonder of impartation and appropriation. The communion is a means of God ministering Himself to you. Also included is an exhortation on priority.

The Greatest Answer For A Mother

Motherhood can be a great blessing. However, it takes a great deal of faith to be a mother and to raise your children for God. When a mother lays her little ones on the altar of the Lord, it opens the door for God to work closely with her heart. This Mothers’ Day message is a revelation of how the heart of a true mother is an expression of God Himself. The service included an exhortation on worship and music.

We Become His Yielded Channels

A human channel through which God brings blessing to the world must always be yielded and submissive to Him, even when reproach comes against it. Mary, the mother of Christ, is an example of this. In this communion service, we wash ourselves clean of stubborness and rebellion, and we cry, “Be it done unto me according to Thy Word.”

In this expository message on the Lord’s Prayer, John outlines seven different relationships to God that are expressed in that prayer. The scope of this prayer is tremendous.

The Sin Of Turning Back

Lot’s wife is a picture of the carnal Christian in the last day. She knew the true God, she had great advantages, she had the help of angels; but she turned and looked back because she was engrossed with the pleasures of Sodom. We are living at a conjunction of ages, a time of unique jeopardy for every soul. Lot’s wife was not prepared when the great testing came. Are you prepared for the storm that is coming? Remember Lot’s wife.

It’s Suppertime!

In the parable of The Great Supper, those who were originally invited had many excuses why they could not come. So, the master went to the highways and the hedges and compelled others to come in. This parable has a dispensational significance. Today, it is easy to be overly involved with the cares of life. But there is a compelling ministry of love that is reaching out to the world saying, “God loves you. All is prepared; come in and have supper with Him.”

The Answer For Your Wilderness Experience

The wilderness is a temporary experience while passing from the land of bondage into the promises of the Lord. In the midst of a wilderness, you will always be confronted with impossible circumstances. Some problems are not meant to be solved; they are meant to be walked through. Do not be discouraged when you are in a wilderness. God will bring you into a greater blessing by drying up the blessings that you are walking in. This Word is the answer for anyone in a wilderness experience.

The Protection Of Our Minds

The open door to demonic power and satanic influence in the life of a believer will come through unbelief, doubt, or anxiety. We need to learn how to guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus. Every negative thought needs to be committed to the Lord. Satan is stronger than any one of us, but he cannot defeat a humble person. Do not under-estimate the strength that comes through humility.

A Meditation On The Word Of God

We come to the Word of God to receive His provision and strength. One promise fully believed could move the entire world. What must we do when the pressure is really great? Only one response pleases God: worship. This church has only one goal, that Jesus Christ be the Lord in your life.

Only One Thing Is Necessary

The most valuable thing we have is our time. Every day, we decide between doing the good, the better or the best. Our work of service must not take priority over our worship for the Lord and our spiritual communion with Him. When our works flow out of a heart of worship, God will be manifested through them to the earth. The Word was preceded by an exhortation on spiritual maturity.

Be Ready To Pay The Price

In this day of God’s outpouring and restoration, we must be ready to pay the price. We must be committed to the spiritual warfare that is involved. The drive of self-preservation causes us to question, “What am I getting out of this?” We will have the privilege of walking with God, doing His will, and seeing Him glorified! An exhortation on worship precedes the Word.

Keep On Praying And Believing

We are seeking a revival, the latter rain outpouring of God’s Spirit. Will God answer our prayer? He does not do anything sovereignly; He always moves through human instruments. It takes a long time for God to raise up a people who will walk with Him. The birth pangs of a new age are upon the earth; it is a battle, a struggle. If we keep praying, God will pour out the rain and there will be fruit. However, when He begins to move it will be difficult for the Christian world to accept it.

No Failure Has To Be Final

Peter is a cross-section of human nature; he was a courageous man, and yet one of the weakest. He failed his first test by denying the Lord, but then he repented and stood up boldly at Pentecost. No failure has to be final. Though you may have failed a test the first time around, the next time you can come through gloriously, if you are willing to repent.

“…He First Loved Us” — I John 4:19

“We love because He first loved us.” God creates within us the capacity to love. At some point, human love fails; divine love is what we need. The important thing is where we live; we need to make God our abiding place and be filled with His love, so that we react in Him to every situation. An exhortation on how to cope with spiritual warfare preceeds the Word.

Attaining God’s Attributes

God is not trying to reform or discipline your human nature. He wants to produce a new creation, a new life, by communicating His nature to you. The gifts of the Holy Spirit are only a fragmentary manifestation of what He is. What you lack, what you cannot become, you can receive from God.

Anointed For Signs And Wonders

Christ means “anointed one.” The proof of His anointing was the signs and wonders He performed. The great Body of Christ has also been anointed for signs and wonders. God wants His people to be dedicated to believe for miracles. The Word cannot be in theory alone; it must be manifested in power.

The Testings And Failures Of Discipleship

Luke chapter 9 lays out the conditions of discipleship, and illustrates the different areas in which the believer is tested and, at times, fails. The three areas of testing are: on the mountaintop, in the valley, and along the roadside. This Word is a beautiful allegory of what happens to you when you set yourself to be a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Power Of A Right Spirit

The human spirit is fantastic. It can send vibrations that can be very powerful. We know the magnetic power of a right spirit, and the repelling force of a wrong spirit. The human spirit can set up vibrations that will set aside physical laws and create a miracle, in order to accomplish God’s purpose. As the age of spirit unfolds, what God could do in this church is almost beyond comprehension.

We Are Living In A Time Of Transition

We are living in a time of transition in which God is doing a new thing in the earth. During this transition, leadership is very much needed, and the spirit of revelation must rest upon us.

Where Is Your Emmaus?

There comes a time when we get disillusioned and make a trip to Emmaus. Emmaus is wherever we go to forget about the Lord when we feel His failure or neglect of us. However, He is always walking with us, trying to teach us, even when we do not sense His presence. The Lord draws out the hunger of our hearts, because He wants to reveal Himself to us. The service began with a communion meditation in which we are reminded of the finality of Christ’s accomplishment on the cross.

The Anointing Of The Lord

What does “the anointing” really mean? The word “christ” means “the anointed one” and the word “christian” means “an anointed one.” The signs and wonders that Jesus performed were the proof of His anointing. We bear the mantle of Christ and we are called to walk in a double portion of His anointing.

The Salvation And Strength Of The Lamb

To serve God there are two things that are necessary: salvation and strength. The Passover lamb brought both of these things to the Israelites. The blood of the lamb represented salvation from judgment. The strength of the lamb enabled them to get up and leave Egypt behind forever. Every Lord’s Day, we are keeping the Passover. This communion service was an hour of judgment.

We Must Come Into The Rest Of The Lord

We are in a time of transition. We have to come into the rest of the Lord or we are going to become absorbed in the spiritual battle. We have to live in God; He has to become our refuge, our dwelling place. We must learn to live joyfully in His presence, no matter what is coming against us. Our individual deliverance, and the future of this church, is dependent on our worship of the Lord.

Sometimes we fail to appreciate the greatness of the provision at the communion table. We come to remember the Lamb of God who was slain for us, who has provided for our need. We are His people, purchased by His precious blood.

The human spirit has the capability of broadcasting and amplifying whatever it receives. Keep your spirit open to God, worship Him, and listen to His Word.

Available MP3 Download: His Body Is Not To Be Broken / The Present Preparation For The Future, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in Sepulveda, CA on Sunday, March 13, 1966. Hidden Treasure.

His Body Is Not To Be Broken

God has created the great mystical Body of Christ for unity; it is not to be broken nor divided. The communion table is designed to bring forth that unity. We are brothers and sisters together in the grace of God. Let Christ’s blood cleanse you and bring you into the unity of the Spirit.

The Present Preparation For The Future

God has ways in which He brings about His will in your life. Many of His greatest blessings come through adversity. Believe in the sovereign plan of God for your life. Have faith for your future, especially if you see the hand of God bringing dealings in the present. The present is a preparation for the future.

Available MP3 Download: The Value Of Intercessory Prayer / Intercession Is Faith That Never Quits, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, March 27, 1966 and in Sepulveda, CA on Sunday, March 27, 1966. Hidden Treasure.

The Value Of Intercessory Prayer

We need to understand the value of intercessory prayer. There is nothing lacking in God’s perfect provision for us, but how does it become operative in our lives? It is done through intercession. All that God has provided does not work in our lives unless we learn to enter into intercession, to wait before Him and believe Him. This process requires our diligent application, and it is the pattern by which the fullness of God comes.

Intercession Is Faith That Never Quits

God’s provision for us is very great and complete, but it is only through Christ’s intercession that His provision becomes our actual experience. We enter into His intercessory prayer through the Holy Spirit; it is faith that never quits.

The Superiority Of Love Over Law

In the end time when lawlessness and rebellion will be prevalent, we must understand the superiority of love over law. We must see a dispensation break forth in which a people become submerged into the love of God and into a walk by the Spirit. Separated from God’s love, the law attempts to bring order through oppression. Our great answer is the grace and love of God whereby we serve one another. The Word was preceded by practical instructions on how to overcome discouragement and depression.

Love — A Higher Governing Principle

We are living in a time when anarchy, rebellion, and evasion of the law are increasing. Legalism or a code of ethics are not the answers. There is a higher governing principle: the love of God that comes as we walk by the Spirit. When we are filled with the Father’s love, we no longer serve the lusts of the flesh, and therefore, we are no longer under the law. Instead, we become addicted to serving Him and one another. This Word is a very timely answer to the moral challenges that our nation and our young adults are facing.

These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, March 6, 1966 and in Sepulveda, CA on Wednesday, March 9, 1966 and in South Gate, CA on Thursday, March 10, 1966. Hidden Treasure.

Lord, Give Us A Right Spirit!

The human spirit is capable of vibrations that are almost infinite. Sin and evil vibrate on a very low scale. There is a greater force that comes from one who has a right spirit before God and who is yielded to His will. A right spirit can stop evil in its tracks. Lord, give us a right spirit!

Three Phases Of Paul’s Consecration

There were three distinct phases of Paul’s consecration: 1) a bond servant of Jesus Christ, 2) called to be an apostle, 3) separated unto the gospel of God. The first phase was a relationship of dedication. The second phase represented the authority and office that he held. The third phase was a specific relationship and work. Like Paul, we should magnify what God has given us to do.

Only He Is Worthy

When we ask something of the Lord, we must be very careful that we approach Him in the right way. None of us are worthy of God doing anything for us. When we come to God, we must understand His authority over the situation. It takes faith to walk with God, to believe His Word; our worthiness does not even come into the picture.

Communion Meditation: Avenge Us Of Our Adversary

As we come to the communion table, we must realize that we are facing satanic powers that are set to usurp and divert the provisions and the rich heritage that God has for us. Our answer is not to battle Satan directly, but to continually stand before the throne of God and plead, “Avenge us of our adversary!” Our faith is that God will bring about justice swiftly.

The Present As It Relates To The Future

Many times, God’s purposes in your life will be fulfilled because of the present difficulties that you are facing. The Lord often orders the present so that your future can be unlimited in His blessing. When God starts working on the inner man, do not think that it is pointless. He wants to be glorified through your life.

A Living Prophecy: February 22, 1966

In this living prophecy the Lord says, “Hindrances shall be removed from thy way and ye shall walk in the victory of the Lord.” Open your heart wide to these words for they are words of the Spirit, a message of the living Christ.

Knowing And Appropriating

There has been a finished work by the Lord Jesus Christ, but people do not know how to appropriate what God has provided. How do we change this? It involves Christ’s continued intercession for us, and the Holy Spirit’s intercession through us. God does not want us to be spiritual paupers. He intends that what He has provided should be constantly ministered into our lives until there is hardly room enough to contain it.

How Do We Appropriate His Fullness?

God has provided a perfect and complete salvation. However, we have not appropriated it to any significant measure. There is a wide gulf between what we have accepted in the Word and what we have appropriated in experience. How can we fully appropriate His complete provision? The greatest factor is the intercessory work of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

Break Through With Fasting And Prayer

As a result of fasting and prayer, men of God triggered spiritual outpourings and changed the course of history. Fasting is not a religious exercise to gain merit with God; fasting is the laying aside of the needs of the flesh so that you can draw closer to God. Many practical instructions on how to obtain the best physical and spiritual benefits of a fast are given in this message.

The Permeating Word

When God begins to minister to your heart, it may seem like a small thing at first. However, His Word has a transformative quality. God inserts His Word into your heart, and like a little leaven, it will continue to grow until it reaches every aspect of your life and your being.

The Faith Of A Mustard Seed

We do not understand yet the power of a living Word and its influence. The Word of God comes to us like leaven; it has a transformative quality that begins deep within us. The Lord emphasizes the greatness of the little things, the faith of a mustard seed. We are on the threshold of something great; God is preparing His people to be His voice at a conjunction of dispensations.

Called As Ministries Of Judgment

Psalm 149 is a description of the victory and the ministry of judgment that the Lord Jesus Christ intends for His people to walk in. Walk in it carefully and humbly. Don’t be presumptuous. The glory and praise belongs to the Lord; it is His authority and His victory. An exhortation on freedom precedes the Word.

An Exhortation On Change

In this exhortation, John declares: “We are becoming a changed people. We are going to see transformation. It is a day to believe for deliverance.”

Focus On The Lord

When your focus is wholly set upon the Lord and you magnify Him, you set something in motion that comes back to you from Him. All of heaven is set to bless and deliver the person who will so worship God.

Lord, Increase Our Faith

It takes faith to walk with God. Faith has to put its trust in God’s Word. Do not reason things out by your own understanding. God knows how to bring the victory.

The Walk Of Faith

Faith is necessary for every step of your life. Sometimes God tests your faith by delaying the answer; however, a divine delay does not constitute a divine denial. God draws out your faith by deliberate discouragement. A walk of faith is what pleases Him. Unbelief is a sin against His integrity; repent of it. All the good things that God has for you come through this channel of faith.

How Does God Evaluate Us?

The human housing of Christ can be as deceptive today as it was in the days when Jesus walked the earth. Yet God’s evaluation of your life is based on how you relate to Christ coming forth in others. Christ said, “Inasmuch as you have done it to the least of these brethren, you’ve done it unto Me.” Open your heart and give to others what you are, expecting nothing in return.

Dedicate Yourself To Serve

What you are and what you have, and the way that you give it to others determines whether your life is worthwhile or not. The key to your enrichment, to your development, and to the blessing that the Lord puts upon your life is your dedication to serve.

What is your goal? Will it glorify the Lord if it was accomplished? What are the steps to be taken to attain it? Be wholehearted! Unless you are wholehearted, you will drift through life and nothing of great consequence will happen to you.

Speak Unto The People To Go Forward

Exodus chapter 14 teaches us how to respond under pressure, when we are faced with impossible circumstances. Whether the Lord commands us to “stand still” or to “go forward,” we must not create our own way of escape. Trust God and believe that He will provide a miracle route for deliverance.

Three Positions Of Faith

When you want to appropriate blessings from God, your faith has one of three positions: 1) the position of presumption; 2) the position of passivity; or 3) the position of active faith. Active faith is a trust in God that is expressed in action. Which position are you in?

Communion Meditation: I Corinthians 10

For forty years in the wilderness, the Israelites were sustained by a miracle flow. The only thing that could defeat them was their own spirit. We also, like Israel of old, are under the protection of the glory of God. Watch your spirit. Partake of the communion, and be one with it; refuse to feed upon bitterness and rebellion.

Hear The Word And Act On It

Communion Meditation: The Sufficiency Of God’s Grace

God has a destiny for everyone of us. God can cause the flow of His grace towards us to be sufficient for anything that He calls us to do. Grace is God’s visitation of Himself to us in our need, that we might execute His will in the earth.

“It Is The Lord!”

When the Lord was revealed to the disciples for third time after His resurrection, they recognized first His power, then His presence, and finally His provision (John 21). They were then ready to listen to the great commission He wanted to give them. Likewise, today, a joyful recognition of the Lord’s presence and provision is about to dawn on God’s people, and He is ready to move through them to bring forth His will in the earth.

Don’t Run To Emmaus

Emmaus is a way of escape; it is wherever we go, or whatever we do, when we feel that Jesus has failed us. Do not run; do not withdraw. There is something precious that comes when you stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. This service includes an exhortation concerning the military draft and the Vietnam war.

The Initiative Is Yours

If you wait to move until you have a full revelation of God’s will, you will never walk in it. God veils revelation so you have to walk by faith. Walking by faith requires initiative. The provision is His, but the initiative is yours.
