June 27, 1981 Saturday A.M. Ana.

HOW THE FIRST BECOMES LAST
May 5, 1979 Saturday A.M. Ana.
The first shall be last and the last shall be first. The Holy Spirit is revealing to all of us this Kingdom principle and we are experiencing it. The secret of the multiplication of the great apostolic company is found in the humility of the leader who brings forth authority in the Timothy servants. Before changes come in the ministries, those over them have the revelation and vision for them to change. The humble kneeling leader allows the young ministries to leapfrog over him. (46 1/2 min.)

July 9, 1978 Sunday P.M. SoG.

The apostle describes his “rights” on a human level. In the last of the chapter he asserts his right to sacrifice to be a dedicated disciple of the Lord.
