HE IS DOING IT AGAIN!
November 15, 1974 Friday P.M. Val.
True faith reviews the Scriptural accounts of divine protection and immunity from Satanic assault, and appropriates a present experience of that protection personally.

One of the finest and freshest expositions of the flow of the word to us, the fantastic change in us, and the ultimate flow of that word from us in creative power. A very unique and important principle is set forth. We cannot minister anything to another until we have partaken of it ourselves first. Also we cannot minister to another until we have identified with them. Indeed we must always be a first partaker of what we would minister. (59 min.)

IT IS SETTLED!
May 19, 1974 Sunday A.M. Val.
God’s Word is settled in heaven. His purpose is unchangeable. His provision for us is perfect. He and His promises are immutable. We are the variables. But when His Word is settled in our hearts and thinking, then His provision is appropriated. Usually a message is not repeated in the churches but this message was preached both in the Valley and in Anaheim. Both versions are similar but enough different to warrant the inclusion of both.
