IDENTIFIED WITH CHRIST
August 27, 1971 Friday A.M. Chico
Here are the beautiful truths of identification. The Lord so identifies Himself with you, that anything done unto you, He considers as done unto Himself. You can so accept your identification with Him that everything is what you can become and have. Be baptized into the death that He dies for you; then be raised up into the life that He’ll now live through you. (38 min.)

August 25, 1971 Wednesday P.M. Chico
The key to all change is an openness and exposure to God. We’ll be changed “in the twinkling of an eye” when we see Him, but we don’t wait till the last trumpet. To the extent that we see Christ, have a revelation of Him and love Him, we’re changed. This is the path of instant saints. (52 min.)

CONTINUALLY IN GOD’S WORD AND PRAYING UNCEASINGLY
August 24, 1971 Tuesday P.M. Chico
The key of entering into all that you want is to be strong and courageous and to be careful to do exactly what God tells you to do.

ACTING ON THE WORD
August 25, 1971 Wednesday A.M. Chico
Every time God wants to bring an age forth, He turns it loose and then He lays the responsibility for it in the hands of a few unworthy people. He doesn’t start with a great fanfare–just a little thing that He turns loose. We have a Living Word; let’s make a step and do something with it. (29 min.)

BELIEVERS
August 23, 1971 Monday P.M. Chico
As a member of the Body of Christ, we are the expression and execution of the will of God in the earth. There is only one responsibility we have and that is to be a believer. The biggest deception Satan would bring is that this battle is still to be fought; that the victory and outcome is yet to be resolved. That’s not true. We must have faith in the finished work. We are going to believe that God’s provision for us is perfect. (31 min.)

PREROGATIVES AND PRIVILEGES
August 24, 1971 Tuesday A.M. Chico
What is a prerogative? It’s my own right or privilege in a thing. It’s my special position. There are prerogatives of citizenship, like the privilege to vote. God spoke that He wanted you to know your privileges, to make you under stand who you are in this Walk and the things He is setting before you. For the first time the restrictions of who you are, are gone; you have the privilege of a real walk with God. (31 1/2 min.)

MOUNTAIN THRESHERS
August 22, 1971 Sunday P.M. Chico
If you believe all that the Lord says, what He’s going to do for you and the way He will be with you, then you must accept a new identity. Don’t focus on feeling that you’re only a “worm” but remember He’s promised to make you a “mountain thresher” too, who will break down futility and see things loosed in the name of the Lord. (33 min.)

WHAT CAN MAN DO TO ME?
August 23, 1971 Monday A.M. Chico
Woe be unto those that stand against a man of God in this hour for they will be allowed to come against God’s people for only one reason: the final justification of God’s destroying them from the face of the earth. We are like a colony of the Kingdom transplanted into a dying order of things. We will have evil surrounding us, but instead of being destroyed by it, we will survive as instruments that accomplish the purposes of God in this generation. (32 min.)

August 22, 1971 Sunday A.M. Chico
You must come to accept yourself as a bond servant of Jesus Christ; with all of your needs and all of your problems you belong to Him, and you accept Him as absolute Lord over your life. That acceptance is basic. Then you accept what He says about you. You cannot honor Him as Lord and refuse the prophecies that are over you. You start on a basis of absolute nothingness and give it to the Lord, and then He begins to bless you and create Himself in you. (53 min.)
Scriptures: | Acts 4:13-15,29-32; Gal. 1:1-4,11-20 |
Topics: | Acceptance; Bond Servant, Bondslave; Word, Receiving; Worthiness |

Those who have already battled and possessed their inheritance now lead the battle for the rest to possess theirs.

We will not stop until every son of Israel moves into his possession. (47 min.)
