Scripture Reading: Letter to the Hebrews

Blessings, dear children of the Light. We have been with you throughout the reading from your Holy Scripturese We would like to remind you that no matter how much you have heard it, there are times that it is well to focus upon certain areas so that you completely identify with them and know that this was preserved for you, that it is speaking unto your souls this very day There is power of Spirit within that comes through the voice vibrations as this is being read aloud. It is the purpose of Spirit to penetrate into your souls, that you be reminded of many things in your past incarnations. It is speaking to your souls (in which all these incarnations are as one), reminding you to go forward in this day. Thus it is as the past coming out to meet you in the

The children of Israel are the children of Adam, are the present--all one. We believe that children of God, and you are those who have endured thus fare you will endure unto the end. We would say that the active and passive periods described as "God's work and God's rest," are the great divine cycles in the sustaining of creativity. The creating, the bringing up, lifting up, the raising of consciousness is a day's work in God's plan. When whole solar systems and the planets, with life upon them, have been raised up into ethereal realms, into perfect balance of spiritual energies, then this shall be sustaimd. (The sons of God, raised up to govern these worlds, are moving right on with this.) Then there will be rest in the sense that all will be in perfect balance in the rhythm of ethereal realms, with that perfect balance sustained. There will no longer be the work required to bring you through these days of imbalance.

God sends forth energies, directs them out for the purpose of creating solar systems with their suns and planets. But not all solar systems are created at the same time. Work has begun out of the energies prepared. Sons are raised up to govern another galaxy, another solar system of many, many atoms of creativity. The energies that seem to be at random are drawn and brought forth into a plan, into formation, and there are those who are raised up to care for that which is formed. You have been a part of the working out of the plan upon your Earth and in this solar system in which you dwell. There shall come a day when you shall enter into that "promised land" of equalized energy which shall be ruled by the Lord of Earth. Then there shall be rest from these struggles through limitations. You will be out of the limitations am at home with your God--in line with His will, in His perfect peace and love and light-- all brought into balance. In balance you rest and find peace in Him, with abundant life and joy. This is not idleness; it is rest from imbalance. This is post from raising up or being raised, the perfect Plan accomplished,

Even in the small things upon Earth--when you have a project and it is accomplished--you feel this sense of accomplishment, a job well done. Even that brings a certain peace and rest to your soul. You cannot yet imagine it in the Infinite, in line with God's will, His plan fulfilled and the divine energies brought into balance in another galaxy. perfect balance, matching impedence of light. No longer will there be conflict

This is rest; this is peace

or rebellion against His will. All will be in alignment with it, with perfect peace and rest, joy in your Lord. You will be very much alive in the eternal, abundant Life in His Kingdom. There is no rest out of His kingdoms The great peace--to finally be in alignment with His will--subdued, humbled, no longer rebelling nor resisting but alive in Hime

‘And so we desire that these words from your Holy Bible (of the collection of many gathered throughout the ages, preserved for you unto this day) come through into your soul awareness. Thus we make sure the soul hears them. No one shall improve upon the words left by the Spirit of God for you. We only desire to help clarify some of these truths for you. We in no way mind having time divided with the reading of Scripture, for it is food unto your souls. We minister unto your souls, helping them to be more receptive to that message, 60 that you understand it in a new light. The intellect may not grasp it but the soul shall open, receive and understand. Spirit is revealing to your souls that part which has not yet been fulfilled. We are walking with you on your path of growths you are not alone.

How lovingly many walk beside each one of the flock that is following the Shepherd. Your obedience is marvelous to see. Through misunderstanding you may miss sometimes, but your desire is there, and through the sincerity of your hearts you move forward as far as you can follow. The rebukes that come are for the days past and are warning to never again turn back. Know that this could and did happen, but as you keep your eyes on the Shepherd you will be helped to reach your goal.

Be not prejudiced against terminology that you may have found to be distasteful for you in the past because of the ineffectiveness of many of the organized churches that have not allowed Spirit to rule them. When you have enough maturity of the soul to recognize the difference between genuine and counterfeit, and when the Holy Spirit brings understanding to your hearts, take the meaning behind the words. It matters little about the words; it is the meaning which we are trying to establish in your hearts. As the spiritual centers open, the door to the soul is open and there is the Christ nature with wisdom and understanding. By reminding you we help you to keep in alignment with your true natures. In this nature, as you listen it is with the ear of the spirit and with that presence within you--the spirit of your Lord which shall teach you all things, shall reveal all unto you. Old words will take on new meanings. We are helping you with this, helping you to slide into place, as it were.

As you move into place and assume that mantle of the nature that you are, then you are being raised up to be God's witnesses and you stand tall, stand erecte You feel the power and strength of God in you, and knowing that in the human self you are nothing, you gladly put down all parts of your former being. Seeing the weakness in it, you desire it no longer. Opening, you experience this wonderful new strength justas though you had new blood in your veins, revitalized energies moving through your being. This is God-in-action working through you. You are coming alive to the true nature of you that has been dormant. Then you rise up in this and, as the parable goes, "run to meet your Father." Hopefully, expectantly, joyously seek contact with Him within you. As you put down your will you move into place; you know Him and He knows you. Experiencing is knowing.

So it is that you are being raised up in Him. Ho made it thus; He created you in His image for this purpose and He has the power to bring it about. You chose at one time to turn away and rebels now you have given your devotion to your Lord. Inthis life you have chosen to move forward in His will, but you have not yet learned to quickly put down the will of the human natures You pray +o know His will, to be in line with it, but you cannot do it until you have put

Page 142

aside your own. Then it happens. You are coming into this more and more, and desire of the heart shall bring it about. ‘

This is a discipline, not force in the sense of the human forcing to break through, but it is a wise inner knowing of what is best. Then you take your stand in the divine nature, being true to your convictions and bringing your life--your enviroment--into order. This is the wisdom that will begin to show more and more. As surely as you hear the winds blowing through the trees here by this lake, you shall feel the winds of the Holy Spirit moving through, sweeping you clean, raising you into the higher purposes of the cosmic realm of God's creation.

Mighty is the breath of the Lord--the wind of His Spirit in action. This is symbolic now, but as the disciples sat waiting at Pentecost there was a mighty wind. The spirit moved through as a mighty wind, making known the power of the Lord of Hosts. In that power shall the Christ come unto Earth and bring all things under his government, and you shall be raised up to be like him. Always there are those who go before, becoming the door through which others enter, on and on throughout eternity.

You might say we are showing you both sides of the picture. One moment we are encouraging you, and giving you assurance; the next moment we seem to be discouraging or showing you your failings, your shortcomings. It is because we would have you see all, evaluate all and come up into balance. As you see certain undeveloped areas of your consciousness you move into these areas and do something about them through the will that is in him whom you have accepted. Then you no longer procrastinate. Moving slowly, in patience and caution, is one thing; procrastination is another. .

ie If one truly opens to the Spirit, he will know the next step a will move in line to take action in that direction without hesitating. Many times the intuitive feelings come to the fore and one feels certain promptings, but immediately the mortal mind takes over and begins to pick it apart, to try to find logical application. Many times if it does not fit human logic it is put aside. Later the soul will realize that it felt the prompting but didn't follow through. This is where discipline is needed. Reach out and make connec-tion with that prompting and follow through. Do not let the intellect dwell too much upon it or it will destroy it and you will come up then with the human idea that seems more logical to you.

Souls can come together to reason; reason is of the soul. God's message to the Son reaches the son through reason between the spirit and the soul opening to receive--souls uniting in purpose, communing with one another, Ponder the things of the heart but do not trust human logic. Many things may seem logical that are not acceptable unto God. There is a difference; through prayer you will learn the difference.

We are no longer working with you in human methods of prayer.

This deceived so many into believing there was no power in prayer. There is tremendous power in prayer, but when you pray, let it not be the human will begging for something. This, of course, does not go past your ceiling. It is trying to steal for self out of the energies of God. The higher nature of you, in prayer, becomes selfless, is willing to say, “Let it be according to Thy will," and not, "It must be done this way, Lord, because I will it." There is such a vast difference. We lead you up into your higher nature, then we say, "Pray unto the Father; pray according to His conditions, His requirements.” And for those that feel they do not know how to pray--open and send forth the desire of the soul, then God reaches to fill the need,

True prayer comes from the higher nature, the Christ nature in you-- not yet in its perfect state but in the higher consciousness of realization,

Page 143

It is part of the law that as the soul returns to feed it has greater capacity and will find more and more is contained there, waiting in storage so that each day you be given that which you need--daily bread. As you return for more, your capacity is increasing and you have grown another measure. You can understand tomorrow what you did not understand today. So you will find these hidden gems. This is another reason for keeping these sessions on tapes. God uses all ways of preservation that would be helpful unto His sons.

When you are lifted into the higher consciousness, and are dwelling on your Lord--the soul hungering and yet loving its God and thankful for all its blessings--it is then the attitude of prayer, which opens so that the food comes each time, as a banquet spread before you, to eat to your soul's delight. Thus you find more each time you come back. Every time that you sit for meditation or listen to a taped session or read your Holy Bible, think of yourself as coming to your Lord's table. He has already prepared the table for you, even in the midst of your enemies, even in the world, and you can sit down quietly any time you choose and let the soul be fed from the table of your Lord. He keeps it ever ready for you, whether it is given as you meditate as an infilling of light energies in you, or comes to your understanding as concepts or truths.

All these spiritual foods are prepared at your Lord's table; through choice you sit down at his table, and you feed upon the Spirit that shall raise you up in spirit. You are no longer babes to be fed milk. Souls that have evolved to a point of taking command in the higher nature of their being are to receive a more nourishing food. The Christ self of you is humble but commands with firm authority. For you have the assurance that the Holy Spirit is within you. Let it manifest, but do not, in your human self, feel strange about the way in which it manifests. Be selfless enough to let the Spirit manifest through you in whatever way your Lord choosese Thus the Holy Spirit meets you through this offering, this attitude. No matter what the physical might like or dislike or choose, go all the way. If God's will is to be done, then never mind how foolish it may appear to the world. Allow His will to be done, His spirit to move through, His life renew you.

Stand together as those of faith in the Christ principle of the great law of the Father. Stand together as you go through the end of the times. Divided there may be danger of falling, for each soul needs the sustaining that comes when several are gathered together in his name and there in the midst is the Christ. Be grateful that your Shepherd has been with you, has spoken to you, is in your midst. There is no time element to be considered; there is no distance. If you are in his consciousness and he in yours, he appears in your midst as the greater magnification of Spirit takes place. The floodlights are on and they reveal what is there. He is your goal until the higher goal is accomplished--the completeness of the Father and Son as one. But you are going toward that which he has entered into; then you too will be complete. Sometimes he appears to you as a shepherd; other times he looks as the teacher he was as he walked the Earth, Other times he appears as the risen Lord in all his glory. You know him, you know his voice, you hear your Shepherd as he calls you. Follow! As you feel the prompting within you, respond,

This is the rapport between souls of like purpose. They mow, they recognize not only one another from other incarnations of soul awareness, but they know the Lord who is leading them out. He has been their Shepherd--y our Shepherd--all along; thus you know him. You are a part of the greater remnant, and you are among the ones to whom he would appear, those he is leading out. Remain humble but rise up to meet him, and when he comes in the clouds do not be fearful. You have followed him; you have nothing to hide. Go forth gladly. Few are those who continue to trust and are not suspicious. Have perfect trust in

Page 144

him. You have a guide within you that lets you know when to trust and follow, and when to turn away from those that are of the anti-christ. :

We are assisting in the building of stronger faith in you. We : witness to you of our Lord; you are made in his image. Rise up and stand firm in that Name you have been given, and follow him. You are being raised up into higher frequencies, but when this is not constant you do feel great contrast. Pray with one anothers; continue to love one another. This lifts and sustains the soul until it moves upon firmer ground.

We walk with you and shall be with you throughout the day and night, on and on. It used to be once-in-awhile that we were with you. Now our assignment is to walk with you unto the end--those on this ray of light, on this vibration, following your Shepherd--and we the ones assistinge But, keep your eyes on your Shepherd.

Lo, I am with you. Harken unto my voice and the voice of reality shall be within your souls. The love of God extends unto you. Blessings, my children. Be ye one in Him

We bow before thee, Oh Lord. Give us peace.
