<br />

 1444 Newport | Denver, Colorado<br />

<br />

 The Messenger of the Lord appeared at 2:30 a.m., March 23, 1941,

at my bedside while at the home of James R. Orris, 1444 Newport,

Denver, Colorado. The room was filled with light, and it remained

for sometime after he left. He spoke with authority, slowly and

distinctly. I wrote as he gave the message, after which we visited

a few minutes as two men on many things of the kingdom. He left at

3:45 a.m.  W.A.DRAVES 1 Arise and write the message I

will give you.<br />

 2 Behold, I come again with a message from the Lord. I am sent of

the Lord to you at this place and at this time. I am the Messenger

to bring the warning. I come from the presence of the Lord. I am

the Elias, and my name is John. My message is one of love and

deliverance to those that heed and obey it.<br />

 3 The Lord has designed His decree, and it shall come to pass that

all who will learn His will, obey His law, and endure, shall be

counted His Bride at His appearing.<br />

 4 The greatest peril is on, and destruction upon destruction,

suffering and evil, are everywhere, but the Lord shall be jealous

for His people, for Israel shall be delivered and be made His elect

through the knowledge of the Lord's choosing, in their faith.<br />

 5 The plagues have been let; and to destroy with fury until the

people cry unto the Lord.<br />

 6 Arise, ye ancient chosen of the Lord the Lord is your deliverer.

The vision has been; and many will yet know I have come of the

Lord, and that this work of the Lord is true. Few have heeded, but

many are seeking. Take to them the message of life. Let the glad

tidings ring forth and the words of deliverance sound, even unto

other nations. Hasten! The Lord has spoken! Let the servants be

swift to His command. Remember Job; his trials did not destroy his

faith. Yet lacked he anything? He endured and found peace with

God.<br />

 7 You have seen the weakness of man. You have seen the evil plan

to destroy. You have seen darkness cloud the minds of those who

doubt and oppose the work of the Lord. Be not moved; be true; some

have heeded the whisperings of Satan, and he has led them astray;

let it not be so with you. As I say to you, so say I to all. For

this is the day of the Lord, and His will must be done. Deliverance

will come to the faithful.<br />

 8 The Lord has spoken in times past, but few have heeded, for in

their hearts they have heaped decrees unto themselves, and the will

of the Lord they have forgotten. Again the Lord speaks I come to

bring His words. Let this message be taken to all parts of this

nation, Alaska and Canada. Let the message be taken to Australia.

The Lord sees the efforts of His servants. It is His will, and it

shall come to pass. The great awakening is on.<br />

 9 The harvest is on, the wheat and the tares have grown together.

The cleansing time has come. Heed the instructions I bring from the

Lord. I have come that man may know the Lord has spoken and that

Christ's coming is near at hand. Study The Word of the Lord for the

instruction is sent. Obey, and it will be well with you. Heed ye,

you that are afar off! The Lord will deliver. Let more be sent into

the harvest field. The time is ripe. Let those that hinder have no

part in this work, the Lord calls others to carry the work on. The

authority and trust that was placed on some, they have denied; some

have opposed; and doubt has caused them to sin in not defending the

truth and The Word of the Lord.<br />

 10 I come to bring courage. Be not moved at the evil, nor the

snare that is laid for you. There are those that have been and will

be true. Their reward is sure. Those that are traitors will not be

called His jewels at the last day. Remember the Lord. He is your

strength. Let peace follow you wherever you go.<br />

 11 Let all heed the will of the Lord. The faith of many shall be

tried. Many will fall by the way. Many are called but few chosen.

Few are faithful. They that be with Him when He comes shall be

called, chosen and faithful. Some will be called to take the

message afar, for many are honest of heart and seeking for light.

His glorious voice shall be heard, for, in the lightning, the

indignation of His anger, and in the flame, Assyria shall be tried,

scattered, beaten, and shall fall.<br />

 12 The three unclean spirits have gone out bringing bondage,

suffering, and idolatry. They deceive and they are not the justice

of the Lord. This generation of mankind shall not all pass away,

for the son of man shall come in His glory. This is the time the

prophets spoke of, in man's inventions, destructions, and war. Like

clouds the enemy has gone over, and in noise they destroy; but

Israel shall be delivered and brought to the land the Lord God has

decreed her boundary. The Lord of lords shall be their king, and

the gospel, their law forever. For He shall rule from sea to sea

and all nations will obey Him.<br />

 13 Storms and earthquakes shall come and the nations must know the

Lord is God.<br />

 14 Be pleasant in your work; be of good cheer. Let your hearts be

glad. Trust not in the arm of flesh. And to you, my fellow servant,

write your letters of kindness, in love that others may be

encouraged; for this is your work. Let the Lord<br />

 direct by His Spirit. He will lead you. Worry not what man may say

of you. The call goes out and the honest in heart will hear.

Nothing is impossible with God and so all the faithful shall learn

His law, and obedience shall bring them rest.<br />

 15 I will come as the Lord directs. Send this message to the

brethren, and the church, for many have prayed to know. I have

come. Let not man deceive himself for the Lord has spoken. I leave

peace with you.<br />
