DIGGING FOR OUR DEEP ROOTS
October 20, 1979 Saturday A.M. Shiloh

Days of fasting and prayer at Shiloh resulted in this word to Brother Stevens and must be shared. It must be listened to very carefully for it reveals the unrealized depth that the root of a wrong spirit can reach. It holds before us also the goal of attaining that deep root of a right and willing spirit. (44 min.)

THE SHEPHERD’S COMPASSION AND COMMISSION
October 20, 1979 Saturday Aft. Shiloh

Why can a grievance turn a heart away from a living word and a commission from the Lord? The answer is the love and compassion we have, for the Lord in His Word will reject every grievance, “takes no account of a wrong suffered.” By His Word we grow in grace and appropriate the grace to grow.

This tongue-in-cheek presentation of the false premises by which Babylon functions is contrasted to the Kingdom truths and principles.

The sequel to the way Babylon operates and functions is found in the corresponding positive principles and Kingdom proverbs that creatively stimulates and produces the climate that is pregnant with potential for the Kingdom.

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

September 30, 1979 Sunday A.M. Ana.

A right spirit is easily entreated by the Lord, but is not easily manipulated by the human spirit. Also, a right spirit does not manipulate on a human level, but leads in the Spirit. The Word deeply penetrates in the analysis of all that a right spirit is before God. This is the capstone of the ministries’ convocation. Revelation again opens the doors to the next level of Kingdom living. (57 1/2 min.)

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

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.)

FAITH: MY KEY AND MY SHIELD
July 29, 1979 Sunday Aft. Shiloh

Ephesians 6 describes our faith as a shield that repels, resists and rejects the satanic assault against us. The other five chapters contain references to our faith as the means to our sustenance, our mutual edification and, in fact, the key to all of God’s great provision for us. Our faith in the Word must emphasize it as a shield in warfare or little that we believe for comes to pass. (39 min.)

DO I READ IT OR DO I EAT IT?
July 29, 1979 Sunday P.M. Iowa

Through the Scriptures the implication is given that the prophets and the apostles of the Lord did not merely read, they ate the Word of the Lord and they witnessed that it was sweet to the taste but bitter to the stomach. The difficult process is assimilation of the Word and becoming what it reveals. (33 min.)

The world says, “Believe in yourself; have confidence.” God says, “Believe in My Word and reach for My gifts.” This message gives the simplest and truest rebuttal of the world’s arrogant plea for self-confidence, and it gives the simplest answer for exploits and greater works by those devastated and desolated by God’s dealings in their lives.

ANXIOUS LONGING OR EARNEST EXPECTATION
July 29, 1979 Sunday A.M. Shiloh

We’re in the siege, but ours is not a frustration, but an “earnest expectation” of the deliverance from futility.

The sovereignty of God and the earnest expectation of the believer combine to bring the spiritual breakthrough that the Lord has promised. (42 min.)

OUR UNWAVERING CONFESSION
July 22, 1979 Sunday A.M. Iowa

God holds the pen; your heart is the tablet. Let Him make a living tattoo upon your heart and upon your mind, and what He speaks to you, hold it with an unwavering hope and confession. Make your prayers an expression of that hope and faith. Never let your prayers be the whine of the desperately fearful. His word and His rebuke to our heart is always palatable because it is marinated in His love. When we speak His word let us speak the truth in love. (41 min.)

SEASONED WITH SALT
July 22, 1979 Sunday P.M. Iowa

The words that we speak will be the only preserving factor in all of this planet. These words must not be the mouthing of empty and trite phrases or the quotation of Scriptures by rote. We must let His Word dwell in us richly and then we speak, we sing psalms, we make melody in our hearts to the Lord. Do not let your word lose its salt because you have negated it by rebellion, criticism, “empty words.” (16 min.)

Joel, the second chapter, is the chapter of spiritual outpouring and judgment.

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.)

THE UPS AND DOWNS
May 20, 1979 Sunday 10:00 A.M. Iowa

This message, from the fourth chapter of Philippians, shows the consistent pattern that God uses to enlarge our faith, how He brings us to pinnacles of fulfillment and then strips us down so that we still, with full contentment and submission, believe Him with an even greater faith than we have before. The flow of faith in this service was incredible. As a pastor said, “A thousand problems were solved by this word of faith.” (32 min.)

The boldness that comes by the Holy Spirit is a double sign. First it is a sign of our eminent victory. Secondly, it is a sign of the adversaries’ eminent defeat.

Among the 120 gathered for the day of Pentecost was Mary, the mother of the Lord. She was typical of many today who have followed the Lord saying as Mary, “Be it done unto me according to Thy Word.” The prophet said, “A sword shall pierce your own heart” and so we experience the devastation of the cross before the baptism of the Spirit.

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

April 29, 1979 Sunday Aft. Shiloh

The times of restoration have come and many of God’s people are locked in the traditional churches, both in doctrines and experiences. Churches should be more flexible to embrace a present truth that God is restoring, for the hungry will jump the man-made fences. The responsibility rests on the shepherds to lead the sheep on or lose them. People should never have to leave a church to get more of God. (51 min.)

THE HUMBLE LOVE
March 26, 1979 Monday A.M. No. H.

The world has a type of love that is still competitive between husband and wife, parents and children, brothers and sisters. The Lord would devastate that competitiveness and teach us that true love is humble. “It vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil.” We love Him so we serve Him. This word came out of ministry to one of the little sisters that works freely in the Living Word Building. (11 min.)

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

January 7, 1979 Sunday A.M. Val.

Here is the underlying basic principle of all life and ministry in the Kingdom of God. We do not work for the Lord but with Him. Our intercession is not at God but an expression of the Holy Spirit and of Christ our Lord interceding through us. This emphasis of a familiar principle is the key to the deeper worship and more effective intercession to come, another facet of Romans 8. (41 1/2 min.)

HOW WILL HIS KINGDOM PREVAIL?
November 26, 1978 Sunday A.M. Val.

The Kingdom of God and the kingdoms of this world coexist presently but eventually the kingdoms of this world will become the Kingdom of our Lord. How we relate to God’s Kingdom and the world’s kingdoms is the principle we need now, for we do not advocate the overthrow of governments and institutions, but rather their submission to the Lord. This must come about through spiritual, not physical means. (46 1/2 min.)

THE DEDICATION-REVELATION

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.)

WHY WE SUBMIT
October 29, 1978 Sunday A.M. Ana.

There are several types of submission. Some, like Jonah, are submitting under discipline but their heart remains unchanged. Then there are those like the Gibeonites who are submitting for a selfish motive and advantage. They submit to make others responsible for their care. Then there are still others who are submissive without much understanding or dedication and then of course there are those who would be submissive to the Lord but with their conflicting loyalties they try to serve two masters. Lord, we want our worship and submission to be pure. (47 min.)

There are many problems to our oneness because every relationship in the Kingdom differs. These differences pose a problem to perfect unity and the performance of the perfect will of God. We must be dedicated and submissive in order to perfectly relate to one another. Only a supreme dedication can surmount the perils in a relationship that is unequal.

THE SEARCH FOR THE LAST SPOT
October 15, 1978 Sunday A.M. Val.

The worst form of bondage is thelittle bondages or limitations that you don’t perceive that you have. These are the little foxes, the spots and wrinkles the Bride must remove. The worst deception is that we are unaware of what we have from God or we would reach for a greater revelation of Him and of those limitations we are unaware of. These terms are contradictory: an honest liar, a wise fool,an off-white robe of righteousness. (33 1/2 min.)

SILVER TUREEN OR CHAMBER POT?
October 15, 1978 Sunday A.M. Ana.

Each day of the feast required less sacrifices than the day before, for each day their need of purifying diminished. By the day of rejoicing they were ready to press into new levels of service. We are rejoicing in what He has done in us, but we weep before Him that we might rejoice even more. This feast our tears are the meat sandwich between the layers of bread of rejoicing. These tears determine whether we will be vessels of honor or dishonor. (36 min.)

HOW THE GIFT BECOMES THE GIVER
July 6, 1978 Thursday P.M. SoG.

To be filled with God is to be able to flow with His fullness to others. We give ourselves to the Lord so He can give Himself to us. The ministry of giving then is not how much we give of our human resources but how much of His fullness we can draw and give to others. (15 min.)

THE LOVED BECOMES THE LOVER
July 8, 1978 Saturday A.M. Ana.

God teaches us to love and then commands us to increase, abound and excel in love. Note: He does not command you to be loved but to give love. Those born of God often have a greater need to give love than to receive love. (14 1/2 min.)

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

FREE BOND SERVANTS
July 4, 1978 Tuesday A.M. Ana.

This Living Word in no way harps on legalistic details of behavior. Because of the purity of the vision it brings forth a submission to a bond servant “bondage” which exceeds anything the most heavy-handed holiness preaching ever achieved. Rather than requiring forms or rules of discipleship the word is urging us to present our bodies a living sacrifice, to be genuinely concerned for the interests of the Lord. (31 1/2 min.)

Scriptures: Gal. 5:1,13; I Cor. 8:8-13; I Cor. 9:1,4-6,19-27; 10:23-25

We are ascending to the Pentecost of oneness and Psalm 133 is that Psalm of Ascents that speaks of that oneness. The basic problems of oneness in this word reveal our hearts.

THE BEGINNING OF GIVING IS GIVING YOURSELF
July 2, 1978 Sunday A.M. Ana.

How can-we give without giving ourselves to the Lord? Does a gift have meaning without it involves a relationship between the giver and the receiver? We give our all to the Lord and He pronounces us to be a treasured possession to Him. The text message is similar to Sunday evening in Washington, Iowa, 6-11-78, “A Basket at His Feet.” (36 min.)

THE MACEDONIAN PARADOX
July 2, 1978 Sunday P.M. SoG.

The Macadonian paradox was that the poorest people were the greatest givers and that they gave more than they had. Giving can be a gift-grace in which God causes an abundance of time, energy, resources and finances to flow through a ministry of vision who believes for the will of God to come forth in the earth.

The increase of love and the flow of revelation progress together. The Scriptures expounded show the relationship of immaturity to a lack of love, and to our limitations in revelation to our lack of love.

The factors of greatness in the Kingdom of God are outlined in this definitive teaching on discipleship. A disciple is one with the Lord and dedicated to bring others into that oneness with the Lord. He has a capacity to relate people to the Lord and not to himself. A disciple is not greater than his Lord but he believes to do greater works than He did and he believes that those who are taught by Him will also do greater works in turn than He has. If he is humble, he is honored with a double portion. (35 min.)
