“CALL ME MARA” RUTH 1:19-21
October 21, 1979 Sunday A.M. Shiloh

When God sought for a greatgrandmother of King David, a man after God’s own heart who said his heart was fixed on God, He picked Ruth, a woman of determined faith, without bitterness at the dealings of God. Her motherin-law changed her name from “pleasant” to “bitter” under those same dealings that Ruth endured. Bitterness results from the evaluation of your circumstances and God’s dealings without complete faith in the Word He has spoken. (33 min.)

BITTERNESS REMEMBERS WHAT GOD HAS FORGOTTEN
October 21, 1979 Sunday A.M. Shiloh

Bitterness is often a memory of distorted facts and our subjective reaction to the past. But God sees faith and accounts it for righteousness and blots out the memory of even our transgressions against Himself. Should we not also pray to forgive and forget, and account our brother’s faith as righteousness? (8 min.)

IS BITTERNESS YOUR FUTURE?
October 21, 1979 Sunday A.M. Iowa

If we live in our past bitterness, we will have no future in God. If the way that God has led has not perfected your spirit, you will have no future walk with Him. If you have not forgiven and forgotten, remember that God has not forgotten either. (44 min.)

BASIC BALANCES AND CORRECT EMPHASIS–PART 6
August 12, 1979 Sunday 2:00 Aft. Shiloh

Underlying most of the great ministries in the Old and the New Testament there’s a spiritual process of impartation and appropriation. This word describes it simply and effectively from the experience of Timothy. (26 min.)

BASIC BALANCES AND CORRECT EMPHASIS–PART 7
August 12, 1979 Sunday P.M. Iowa

The emphasis of the Kingdom and its great authority involved is balanced with the minimizing of position. Finally we see an elder as another sheep, but with a shepherd’s heart, and we see that apostles were not a religious aristocracy but the Lord’s gift to His people. The devastation of God’s dealings deposes us from the illusionary position we thought we had but never existed. (39 1/2 min.)

Isn’t it wonderful how the Scriptures come alive again and again? Here again we see that there is no balance in all of the charismatic ministries and gifts of God without His love. As the Kingdom unfolds we will see that love is the important part of the prophet’s revelation and the faith of the miracle workers. (28 1/2 min.)

This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.

April 21, 1979 Saturday P.M. Ana.

For two hours in a School of Prophets’ dialogue in South Gate, Grace Chapel, there was the sequel to the Sabbath morning service. One said, “In the morning you said, ‘This is where we are;’ tonight you said, ‘This is how we do it.'” It opens the door to the family relationship at all of the various spiritual levels that now exist within the Walk. The prophecies have been fulfilled that there would be two distinct levels in 1979. This has come to pass, but now the word comes to show us that there will be no schism and no division, there will be no “superspiritual” group in contrast to those that are reluctant babes with a protracted infancy. This is one of the most important guidelines to come for many months. It shows us how that the churches with the different spiritual levels will move into this step of the Kingdom, which will include Kingdom evangelism as well as the perfection of sonship. (82 min.)

This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.

January 20, 1979 Saturday P.M. Shiloh

The adamic nature in its first manifestation was the viciousness of the older brother, Cain, who slew the younger brother. This word left Shiloh stunned for a week, for it dealt with the scriptural as well as the current examples of the destructive put-down of the younger ministries. This word opens the door to the proper discipline of the pupil, as well as to the proper spirit of each Timothy and teacher who commits the word to the faithful ones who shall “be able to teach others also.

This cassette tape contained the following 2 messages by John Robert Stevens.

THE DEDICATION-REVELATION
October 28, 1978 Saturday A.M. Ana.

When God brings a revelation word to a man he faces two alternatives. First, if he accepts the revelation he must become dedicated to walk in that revelation. The other alternative is his refusal to walk in his revelation and he automatically submits to a measure of deception. The cross is involved in dedication and the disciple “dies” upon the word he receives. Deception will also lead to a death but that is a total spiritual death. (31 1/2 min.)

“YOU LOOK DIFFERENT NOW”

Only you can shut the door on yourself. His provision still requires your appropriation. Gently and deeply the word searched and caused us to bow before Him anew and we were made new. (23 min.)

HIS REVELATION OR YOUR PRESUMPTION?
June 24, 1978 Saturday A.M. Shiloh

It is a delicate line that divides His revelation and the word from our presumption and human conclusions. His word is the basis of authority, fulfillment, deliverance,etc., but our presumption and human thinking is not a basis for anything. Another good word for Shiloh and Timothys everywhere. (29 min.)

SATAN’S SLICK SCHEMING

The deep effective intercession we were looking for is coming forth. Round the clock prayer is the schedule of Shiloh and more and more churches. The intercession has initiated a new level of warfare in the spirit. (24 min.)

The Kingdom comes forth through the channels created by the priests of the Lord. We change as we minister as priests to the Lord. The world changes because as a priesthood we become His channels. Here are guidelines for the intercession, the worship and the waiting before the Lord. (30 min.)

THE PURIFIED PRIESTS FOR THE PASSOVER
March 12, 1978 Sunday A.M. Ana.

Ezra 6 describes the completion of the temple and the subsequent purification and preparation of the priesthood who were to function in the Passover. This becomes a picture of the endtime kings and priests who purify themselves to stand in the Parousia during the Passover of the Kingdom–when we are immune to the judgment of the world. The word is a prophetic keynoter for the ensuing two months. (27 1/2 min.)

ARE YOU RIGHT BUT WRONG?

“PERHAPS MY SONS HAVE SINNED….” JOB 1:5
September 24, 1976 Friday P.M. Shiloh

Job being perfect in all his ways becomes a model intercessor whose prayers are offered with repentance. The perfect prayer vicariously assumes the guilt of the one for whom prayer is offered. The mark of unity is not the absence of division, but the vicarious responsibility and repentance for your brother’s sin. Does not Christ do this for us also? (33 min.)

WHEN THE RIGHTEOUS MAN PRAYS
September 27, 1976 Monday A.M. Shiloh

Why is the fervent prayer of the righteous effective? That righteous man has faith or he would not be truly righteous. This faith is effective faith for it is not crossed out by the warfare of the flesh. When the inner war for righteousness is won, the whole of the focus of faith is in the intercession. (39 min.)

CAIN’S WAY
May 23, 1976 Sunday A.M. Val.

Cain, Korah and Baalam–these three represent the basic end-time sin. Their sin is in their relationship to God and to His people and this word explains these sins that are behind the withdrawal and the building of walls in the Body. Here is another excellent word on our relationships.

Scriptures: Gen. 4:1-16; Jude 11; (Mal. ); (Phil. 3:3)

CAIN’S SIN
May 23, 1976 Sunday A.M. Ana.

The sin of Cain is murderous anger at the blessing of the Lord on another instead of upon himself. The law of love impels a brother to lay down his life for another and he rejoices when great blessings from the Lord are upon another. (58 min.)

The important relationships in the Body of Christ come while we are doing the will of God. The great changes are made while we are in motion. The great problems arise while we are inactive. This message is not urgent–but good for those coming into the Body.
