Our Lord promises the disciples the Holy Spirit and power. “Power” or dunamis (GK) is the dynamite, the dynamic, the dynamo, potential of Pentecost. The message taught, exhorted, impelled to a new high of fullness and release. This is not preaching. This is rioting. (69 min.)

This word is one of the clearest expositions of the true scriptural teaching on the Parousia, the Rapture, the impelling drive of the Holy Spirit in us. We will refer to this message for a long time. The goal before us is to be preserved complete and wholly (spirit, soul, and body). (56 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.

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.)

In the Kingdom we will shift from ownership to stewardship, from individuality to the Body, from being one person to the prevailing oneness with the Lord and with the Body. This oneness comes when our sense of possessiveness and privacy gives way to the steadfast oneness of the church in Acts 2-4. We move from being one person to the oneness of the Body. (58 min.)

This message expounds a very difficult incident in the Gospels in which Christ feigned indifference to a need and irresponsibility for a need and put the seeker to ridicule. Yet it is to this one He says, “You have great faith. You can have what you wish.” This message gives the unsuspected ingredients in the formula for miracles. (53 min.)

THE ROYAL ROAD OF TEARS

The royal road of tears and desperation-that’s the path that all of us must take. If God met our hearts today and answered every cry we have we would still be as desperately hungry for God tomorrow as we are today. This message reviews quite a bit of what is happening during the month of March 1976 and the jubilee services and highlights the growing cry for holiness. It is a deep repentance for the existence of sin in our life for which we have never repented. With the violence of prayer and travail must always be the deep brokenness and a love of holiness.

By apostolic exhortations from several we are warned to eliminate the stranglehold that unwise debts or demonic oppressions can bring to us. How many of us wish to respond when the course of sacrificial labor or giving is requested of us? Alas, too often we must serve out our time to mammon to pay oppressive debts.

THE PASSOVER AFTER THE CROSSOVER–I
May 2, 1976 Sunday A.M. Val.

Most timely is this message for us as we anticipate the fulfillment of promises and the possession of all God has set before US. Here is the Joshua 5 story of a Passover for a people with hearts circumcised. Everything was changing in the transition from wilderness land to Beulah land. Then a new revelation of the “general” of the army was expedient. The first message, from the Valley, is probably more complete but the second version from Anaheim is included because of the vein of humor and different approach to the same basic word. Indeed, you will enjoy listening to both. This word may be emphasized and amplified in the immediate days ahead.

SET HEARTS FOR THE SET TIME

By pure revelation came the exposition of the book of Haggai in which we see that God had a set time for His people to move and exhorted the people to set their hearts to do all His will. Then God said to the obedient ones “from this day on I will bless you.” The double portion and the glory of the latter house will come to those whose “hearts are set.”

January 25, 1976 Sunday P.M. Val.

This exposition of Zechariah, chapters 9 and 10, along with the message “Set Hearts For The Set Time” on the book of Haggai unveils the problem the prophets had in seeing the things to come chronologically. This message every serious Bible student should study carefully until they understand why the prophets mingled prophecies together that are often two thousand years apart in their fulfillments. This is a Living Word on the prophecies about the latter rain and the double portion.

By this time we ought to be teachers instead of babes. This word describes the impasses and hindrances in the churches and gives specifics on what to do about them. The word is more impartation than teaching. It is a rut-blaster which the brethren recommended that every pastor hear.

THE AUTHORITY OF THE COMMISSIONED ONES

Expand your understanding of divine order. In the New Testament there were offices of authority (apostles, prophets, elders, etc. ). There were also references in the epistles to individuals with a specific commission. In both cases the submission of the Body is imperative. Be submissive to your elder but also be submissive to anyone in the Body with a specific apostolic commission.

We need to relearn how to come to church. Israel was forbidden to bring any load into the temple and we, too, are learning to leave our battles and our problems our of the services.

GRACE TO GIVE
December 14, 1975 Sunday A.M. Val.

The ministry of giving must be understood to be a supernatural flow by the grace of God. To share what you have is good but it will not be enough to meet the need.

THE ROAR OF THE PROWLING LION–I PETER 5:8

“DON’T CUT OFF OUR HAND”
November 22, 1975 Saturday A.M. Ana.

The Body of Christ, universally and locally, has its completeness, effectiveness, and unity because of the distinct and diverse ministry which each member of the Body has. To amputate a member because his ministry is unique and to insist on conformity of all the members is to cripple and destroy the Body of Christ. (58 min.)
