A Study Of Worms Anonymous

When God wants to do something, He is careful not to use an instrument that is equal in size and number to the adversary.

In this study of Acts chapter 19, we see how Paul’s preaching of the gospel in Ephesus had the power by the Holy Spirit to revive those who had fallen to sin, and to uproot demonic spirits and witchcraft.

Henceforth Expecting

In this end-time conflict, the sons of God are emerging with authority to speak His Word that releases all of creation. It is pleasing to God that Christ’s victory be enforced, not by Christ alone, but by His many-membered Body.

The Spirit Of Cheerfulness / The Scriptures: Our Common Heritage, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in Northridge, CA on Sunday, February 9, 1964. Hidden Treasure.

The Spirit Of Cheerfulness

Our attitude of encouragement or discouragement greatly determines what happens in our individual lives. When people lose out with God, it begins with discouragement; and the spiritual vacuum it creates opens the door to Satan’s work of defeat. When we determine to have an attitude of cheerfulness and to serve God on the highest plane, then we have opened the door for His good intentions to flow towards us.

The Scriptures: Our Common Heritage

In this study of Acts chapter 19, we gain a deeper appreciation for the Scriptures as the inspired Word of God and the efforts of the Early Church to preserve them. Today, we contend that every man has a right to hear God’s Word and be given a chance to accept or reject it.

God’s Power Is Perfected In Weakness

God’s power is made perfect in weakness. When we are weak, He makes us strong (II Corinthians 12:9-10). This Word explains how God can move in a fantastic way in our lives even though we may feel weak and distressed. Do not withdraw when you feel weak; God may be preparing to move through you.

Partake In The Sufferings Of Christ

What should be our attitude when the sufferings of Christ or persecutions or reproaches come upon us? We should rejoice, because His glory is resting upon us. If we suffer with Him, we will be glorified with Him. Our sufferings at the present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed in us (Romans 8:17-18).

The creative, productive force of love is only effective when it is expressed. Oftentimes, love must be expressed in ways that may seem extravagant, as when Mary washed the Lord’s feet with her hair.

A Miracle To Create Faith

We cannot reason out the ways of God from a human standpoint. At times it may appear that God has withdrawn from you, but His purpose is to build your faith. Christ deliberately delayed until after Lazarus died so that faith could be worked in the hearts of the disciples.

He Has Rolled Away The Stone

When the women gathered at Christ’s tomb, they asked among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone?” However, Christ had already risen! Their question serves to illustrate that our greatest problem is our unbelief. When our minds are filled with worries and problems, we are distracted from the realization that Christ is alive and that He has provided for all our needs. He has already rolled away the stone that seems to be our hindrance.

Timothy

There are many similarities between the disciple Timothy and our young people today. To become a faithful ministry, every young child, as with Timothy, needs an impartation of faith in their daily home life, instruction in the Scriptures, and the love of a spiritual father. This message was also printed in the book, Seven Great Young People Of The Bible.

The Weight Of Glory

As we open our heart to the Lord so that His power and glory rests upon us, He allows a corresponding measure of pressure and distress on us that produces a feeling of weakness in us. This experience of weakness under the weight of His glory is God’s way of restricting us so that the flesh does not rise up in pride. We glory in our infirmities, because His power is made perfect in our weakness (II Corinthians 12:9).

They Turned The World Upside Down

The early church in Thessalonica was established during a short three-week time period in which there was an explosion of the living Word, spoken out of the mouths of the early apostles. This was an example of how the anointed Word spoken through living epistles can be equally powerful and as much of a Word from God as the written Scriptures.

What Are You Believing For?

When we seem to reach the limits of our ability, we must draw down His provision and believe that He will enable us. By our faith, we control our destiny and we determine the course of the future. This Word shows us how to lay hold of the promises in the Word of God and make them our reality.

John Mark

John Mark was a young apostle on a journey with Paul and Barnabas when suddenly he turned back because the mission became too difficult. Though Mark had once failed him, Paul later called on him to minister by his side. If you have fallen short of following through with your ministry, the Lord has not given up on you. Seek Him and gain the courage to move on. This message is based on Lesson 6, from Seven Great Young People Of The Bible.

Thou Shalt Be Altogether Joyful — Part II

In Deuteronomy 16:15, God commanded that “thou shalt be altogether joyful” in keeping the Feast of Tabernacles. But do not try to be joyful through your own efforts; instead, simply believe to receive the Lord’s divine joy. This is the key to a fruitful Feast of Tabernacles.

Thou Shalt Be Altogether Joyful — Part I

In this Feast of Tabernacles, a new plane of rejoicing and worship to the Lord was established. We determine to walk in this new plane in the coming year.

The Glory That Attends His Living Epistles

God is not satisfied to have His Word written only on paper; He wants to write it on our hearts, that we may be a living ministration of His glory to the earth. The glory that will accompany living epistles of God’s Word today will far exceed the glory that shone on Moses’ face. Yet we, the living epistles, will reveal it to the earth with unveiled faces, so that those who behold the glory may be transformed into His image.

He Is Preparing You For Joy

The frustrations and trials that you experience in your walk with God are a prelude to joy, as God baptizes you in fire to try your faith. Hold steady; for He will give you a garland for the ashes of your devastation, oil of joy for your mourning, and a garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness that afflicted you (Isaiah 61:3).

Stand On Holy Ground / Believe Him, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, September 15, 1963 and in South Gate, CA on Thursday, September 19, 1963. Hidden Treasure.

Stand On Holy Ground

When the Lord met Moses and Joshua, He told them that “the ground whereon you stand is holy.” Holy ground refers to a fresh encounter with God, where you find out who He is and who you are in relationship to Him. We must see our young people break through to stand on holy ground.

Believe Him

The greatest challenge of the ages is to believe God. In the past, one or two men could believe God and thus change the whole course of history. But in the end-time, God is asking that a people have a complete, perfect faith towards Him. Come to grips with your unbelief; set your will to believe Him and to trust His Word.

Obedient Faith Produces Miracles

Miracles happen when faith combines with obedience to do what God has directed. The action may even be contrary to reason, but it is when you come to the end of yourself that God is able to move.

Sing The Songs Of Zion

The world’s music excites the soul and stimulates the unredeemed human nature. Singing in the Spirit, on the other hand, mutes the flesh nature and frees our spirit to worship Him. Fill your heart with His Word, and sing the anointed songs of Zion.

At Rest In His Presence

Instead of striving and laboring, we must experience the living faith of the rest of the Lord. While lying at His feet, we acknowledge His claim on us, and we surrender our own will and desires completely to Him. In this place of rest in His presence, we find a freedom that allows us to give ourselves wholly to His discipleship. In this Word, John also describes a personal meeting with the Lord that he recently experienced.

When God, by His Word, declares a promise, then it is done and finished. However, the passing of time creates the illusion that the Word is not true.

Hunger

The scriptures prophesy that there will be a famine in the land, not for bread, but for hearing the Word of the Lord. This hunger is only satisfied through a fresh revelation of Jesus Christ, conveyed through a living Word. This message was originally a radio broadcast aired in Washington, Iowa, on August 3, 1963.

Pursue Him With Contented Striving

The real Christian believer is at once satisfied and dissatisfied; he is content and yet he is striving. We are satisfied with the most wonderful dissatisfaction that ever satisfied the human heart. As we cry out to God and strive for the goals that have been divinely revealed, we must also live joyfully no matter what the present circumstances are, know that we are in His will even as we seek it.

The Faculty Of Evaluation, by John Robert Stevens. This message was spoken in South Gate, CA on Thursday, August 1, 1963. Hidden Treasure.

The Faculty Of Evaluation

What distinguishes the babe in Christ from the mature son? The babe flounders in his circumstances; the grown son sees Him who is unseen and evaluates his circumstances in the light of the scriptures. To the babe, the devil is big and the Lord is small; to the son, the Lord is magnified and everything else shrinks. This faculty of spiritual evaluation separates the mature believer from the immature.
