DESTROY THE CHIEFS! THE BATTLES CEASE!
November 26, 1975 Wednesday P.M. Ana.
Caleb waited forty-five years to get at the heart of Israel’s unbelief in the wilderness. The Anakim were nephilim–demon possessed giants in fortified cities.

“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.)

FROM SELF-PRESERVATION TO BODY DEDICATION
November 13, 1975 Thursday A.M. Val.

The Living Word was established in 1968 out of a vision to capture, preserve, and publish the teachings of John Robert Stevens. Many of Stevens' sermons have been edited and published in books, manuals, and a weekly periodical titled "This Week."
The Living Word continues in its ministry today—carefully preserving and publishing messages taken from the vast library of John Robert Stevens' ministry from 1950-1983, as well as the messages of others who teach and minister the Word.
