Stand On Holy Ground / Believe Him, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, September 15, 1963 and in South Gate, CA on Thursday, September 19, 1963. Hidden Treasure.
Stand On Holy Ground
When the Lord met Moses and Joshua, He told them that “the ground whereon you stand is holy.” Holy ground refers to a fresh encounter with God, where you find out who He is and who you are in relationship to Him. We must see our young people break through to stand on holy ground.
Believe Him
The greatest challenge of the ages is to believe God. In the past, one or two men could believe God and thus change the whole course of history. But in the end-time, God is asking that a people have a complete, perfect faith towards Him. Come to grips with your unbelief; set your will to believe Him and to trust His Word.

Sing The Songs Of Zion / At Rest In His Presence, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Thursday, September 5, 1963 and in South Gate, CA on Sunday, September 8, 1963. Hidden Treasure.
Sing The Songs Of Zion
The world’s music excites the soul and stimulates the unredeemed human nature. Singing in the Spirit, on the other hand, mutes the flesh nature and frees our spirit to worship Him. Fill your heart with His Word, and sing the anointed songs of Zion.
At Rest In His Presence
Instead of striving and laboring, we must experience the living faith of the rest of the Lord. While lying at His feet, we acknowledge His claim on us, and we surrender our own will and desires completely to Him. In this place of rest in His presence, we find a freedom that allows us to give ourselves wholly to His discipleship. In this Word, John also describes a personal meeting with the Lord that he recently experienced.

Effective Prayer
When God, by His Word, declares a promise, then it is done and finished. However, the passing of time creates the illusion that the Word is not true.

Hunger / Pursue Him With Contented Striving, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in Washington, IA on Saturday, August 3, 1963 and in South Gate, CA on Thursday, August 8, 1963. Hidden Treasure.
Hunger
The scriptures prophesy that there will be a famine in the land, not for bread, but for hearing the Word of the Lord. This hunger is only satisfied through a fresh revelation of Jesus Christ, conveyed through a living Word. This message was originally a radio broadcast aired in Washington, Iowa, on August 3, 1963.
Pursue Him With Contented Striving
The real Christian believer is at once satisfied and dissatisfied; he is content and yet he is striving. We are satisfied with the most wonderful dissatisfaction that ever satisfied the human heart. As we cry out to God and strive for the goals that have been divinely revealed, we must also live joyfully no matter what the present circumstances are, know that we are in His will even as we seek it.

The Faculty Of Evaluation
What distinguishes the babe in Christ from the mature son? The babe flounders in his circumstances; the grown son sees Him who is unseen and evaluates his circumstances in the light of the scriptures. To the babe, the devil is big and the Lord is small; to the son, the Lord is magnified and everything else shrinks. This faculty of spiritual evaluation separates the mature believer from the immature.

His Nobility, His Priesthood, And His Princes
God has three classes of people who constitute His elite. He has a nobility who searches the Word and receives it readily. He has a royal priesthood who know how to worship.
