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.

In a condensed form and covering many aspects of our present truth has come the word which must be listened to repeatedly before its many aspects will be absorbed.

SONS AND FATHERS
September 2, 1979 Sunday A.M. Shiloh
A father sins when he does not restrain his sons. He also sins when he does not diminish the restraint when his son matures and takes responsibility. The spiritual generation gap is closed when the spiritual fathers and the spiritual sons are mutually responsible for the commission, the authority and the freedom of initiative in each other. The message is condensed and worthy of repeated listening and meditation. This is another message on the procedures that make the Victory Siege effective. (34 1/2 min.)

June 20, 1979 Wednesday A.M. Hono.
On the north shore of Oahu the Holy Spirit, grieving, revealed what organized Christianity had done to the Island people and is doing to the whole Body of Christ now. The vision reaches into the purity of the Kingdom to come when the money changers will again be driven from God’s House. Will not judgment begin with the smug religious den of thieves? This tape is a land mine that the Babylonian dedication will explode. It will be a controversial tape but it will be the sting of Christ’s whip on the back of the money changers and a clear prophecy to ecclesiastical and financial Babylon. To the thousand prophets, this is excellent. (60 min.)

THINGS HAVE CHANGED: HOW SHALL I THINK ABOUT IT?
April 29, 1979 Sunday Aft. Shiloh
The past few months have seen more changes and shifting of the ministries then occurred in any previous time. How shall we think about it? Unless we understand God’s pattern and order we tend to feel that we are failures when actually we have never been more successful. (35 min.)

IT’S A GAME OF LEAPFROG
May 4, 1979 Friday Aft. Shiloh
One of the clearest statements of this principle is contained in this message, thirteen minutes in which we see the Lord’s wisdom in alternating the position of leader and bond servant in the Kingdom. Yesterday’s Timothys are tomorrow’s apostles and today’s apostles may be like the Apostle Paul, restricted to a serving capacity to complete the New Testament. (13 min.)

This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.
April 14, 1979 Saturday A.M. Ana.
At the Passover Sabbath service this word came regarding clear channels of God’s fullness. It is necessary living for everyone involved in a New Testament church, a communal home, a Kingdom business or a family striving to serve the Lord. It deals with the assault against the effectiveness of body ministry and how it can be overcome. The revelation of this sermon came at four o’clock in the morning and we are including it as it was first recorded on a portable recorder. It is more condensed and the impact is a little heavier than the sermon. (56 min.)

WHAT IS A WHORE OF BABYLON?
February 18, 1979 Sunday P.M. Shiloh

YOUR FEELINGS ARE THE FACTS
February 19, 1979 Monday A.M. Shiloh
God looks upon the heart and by Him actions are weighed. The feeling the lust the motivation is deemed in the sight of God to be the equivalent of the act. The Kingdom comes when God has men who are as dedicated to His principles as they are to the actions that bring it forth. The dealings of God by His Word are a sword that pierces until it discovers the thoughts and the intents of the heart. (17 min.)

FEAR IS A DEEP ROOT
April 6, 1979 Friday P.M. L.W. Bldg.
I make my declaration against fear for I know it to be infectious to my spirit. If I fear it is like a low grade fever that chills my bones at every encounter, in every relationship, and in every hostile circumstance. I confess fear to be an evil thing, a sin against the integrity of God’s word, and I refuse it. (13 min.)

ALL OF GOD’S CHILDREN GOT SHOES
April 6, 1979 Friday P.M. L.W. Bldg.

“I know that you stumbled at what I said but did you understand what I meant? What I said was not what I meant and certainly I misunderstood what you thought I meant when you thought I said what I didn’t mean. Why didn’t you say something then?” Instant communication can dispel deception. (48 min.)
