“During intercession in the night of Friday, January 25, 1980, I received a prophecy and blessing for the Valley church, but it applies to all of the faithful in the army of the Lord.

THIRTY PIECES
February 11, 1980 Monday Aft. Hono.
The shift from the local church emphasis to the Kingdom emphasis has magnified weaknesses in our application of the New Testament church order. One of these is found in the ministry of Christ when Judas moved in a ministry but was motivated by a selfishness and greed that was greater than any concern for Christ and His sheep. Judas sells the Kingdom for thirty pieces. The true disciples give their all to possess it. (45 min.)

September 23, 1978 Saturday A.M. Ana.
This is an exposition of Matthew 16 and 17 which progressively unfolds the past and present experiences in this walk with God.

We will refer to this word often. (54 min.)

Day by day exposure to the reality of what we are tests even the best relationship. This repetition of exposure on the human level will cause a shallow, immature relationship to deteriorate.

This lesson teaches the relationship of the gift of the word of knowledge and the gift of faith. By revelation we see the reality of God’s perfect provision and purpose for us.

Faith views the circumstances, the unrelenting forces, and the deadly relationships that forebode our defeat and destruction.

NO CRUTCHES (THE APOSTOLIC COMPANY VISITS REDLANDS)
January 7, 1975 Tuesday P.M. Redlands
Our walk with God is dependent wholly upon our acceptance of what God says about us. We dare not believe in ourselves or that the human level is adequate to perform God’s will. We trust completely in His enablement. No crutches for self-confidence allowed in a walk with God. This service in the Redlands New Testament Church stresses the vision for that area and for the minority groups there.

HE SAID IT, I BECAME IT
January 8, 1975 Wednesday P.M. Ana.
I must accept myself as the person that God declares me to be and that I can do in Him all His Word commissions me to do and that I am to the Body of Christ all that He identifies me to be. I am in the flesh nothing, but in Him I am complete. His Word over me is the sole basis of my confidence, of all my relationships and abilities.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Here are five basic differences between what God is doing now, and what has existed in contemporary Christianity. We strive for reality, not form. We seek divine commission, not human appointment. We follow divine direction, not human planning. It’s His Kingdom, not ours. We depend upon grace, not human striving. (7 min.)
