As the response of the God Flame within Me pours out in answer to the many pleas for Mercy and Assistance, I AM saturated with the great Desire to impart to mankind a greater measure of God-Awareness, that in tasting this sacred morsel that "cometh down from Heaven" there will be a lessening of the tension in the world of men and a greater degree of Comfort in manifestation.
Bear in mind, Precious Ones, that regardless of what measure of greatness may be externalized within you or how great the lack you may seem to have, there is but One Source of Strength for all Life! The Source tapped so easily by My Son Jesus - which, God be thanked, seemed always available to Me also - can be the succor of all who will come, believing that God lives within themselves.
The mysterious unrealities of human experience cloak the real Identity of Being. Every so often in the feeling of 'compartmentation' and seclusion which men have concerning their own identity, it seems to them as though they were sealed in a dense tomb of matter. At moments there comes to some of them a hint of blue skies and warm balmy breezes, of flowers nodding their tiny heads, and of the feeling of Hope. But this is not enough to assuage the momentous grief that accompanies the sense of separation between Man and God.
No mortal dream nor fleeting fancy can replace the vital flow of Immortal Life! The Flame of Resurrection, which raised My Beloved Son from death, was a tangible, radiant, breathing Power which flowed forth from God. This Flame is available for all to the present hour! It has never decreased Its momentum, but has been gloriously augmented as the initiates of every age have drawn forth Its potency.
You have a saying in your world concerning the borrowing of money to the effect that those who do not need it can always obtain credit from the banker, which they do not in reality require; but that those who are in great need are frequently denied the help they request. Now this statement is related to a scriptural reference attributed to My Son, declaring that to everyone that hath shall more be added, and to him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
Would it not be most wise, then, for all to seek a greater momentum of FAITH? Let those who have Faith expand It by using It in overcoming life's problems. Let none be overcome but let all wisely use the Power of right belief. Those who seemingly do not have Faith would do well to concede that there abides some remnant of Faith in all and; therefore, seek to expand it, ere the Life opportunity escapes them and they lose that priceless Gift.
I would, in bringing you this Message of Comfort and Assistance today, call to your attention the need for Faith in the Life that is already within you. Except ye have some Faith in your own Life, how can ye draw forth and magnetize greater Faith and other needed Divine Qualities? Will a piece of wood serve as a magnet? Beloved Ones, a bar of iron or steel makes the best magnet, and so it is that although electrons are in all substance and behind all physical manifestation, yet the vibratory rate of one substance is magnetic and drawing whereas another is not. I use this to illustrate the need for each human soul to build the Quality of Faith in God, that, like a magnet, the Power of Faith and Trust will generate and draw to Itself the necesary requisites of the hour.
As I muse on how to serve mankind more diligently at the present hour, I cannot help but realize that in the different states of consciousness which men manifest are the seeds (possibilities) of their own destruction - of doubt, distrust and unhappiness - as well as the seeds of their own Resurrection unto Immortal Life - of purity, courage, success and Victory. For example, the individual whose great learning in the arts and sciences of the world gives to him a false sense of having all the knowledge that is worth having - such as these sometimes find it difficult to consider the world of the unseen. They do not wish to be deceived or to be victimized by the "human ignorance" of others, yet they fail themselves to discern spiritual Truth.
Others among mankind actually have little knowledge of a material sort. And it is sometimes easier for those with less material knowledge to have Faith, for they have not yet come into contact with the seeds of doubt and mistrust engendered by human reason. This is why My Son, Jesus, advocated the reception of the Kingdom of Heaven by the child mind. The Consciousness of a child, in its basic simplicity and trust, can best assimilate the strands of Faith and hold them together in a mighty Matrix, a Cup, which draws forth the living Essence of each Divine Quality.
I have noted again and again that men and women who have manifested but a relatively small degree of Illumination's Flame at the onset of their quest for Truth, by the Power of Faith, have ultimately drawn forth Great Understanding and Illumination, so much so that even their material knowledge has also been improved.
Now, Precious Hearts, I would not belittle even material knowledge, for knowledge rightly used can be most powerful in winning many Blessings which are sealed within LIFE Itself. What I would do is point out to all that the individual's state of Consciousness at a given moment is either a barrier to the inflow of God, Good, or it is a magnet to draw more of God's Love and Light into his world. This is something which I alone cannot do for you, without your Assistance. You must examine both casually and earnestly the very fabric of your own Consciousness. In that examination you must try to perceive your strengths and your virtues as well as your lack of these and other God-Qualities. Then you must be willing to accept the statement that the CALL DOES COMPEL THE ANSWER.
You must believe in the promise of the Father as My Son so long ago declared it, "Ask and ye shall receive." Then you must ask and know as you ask that you are immediately imbued with Power from On High. The very sense of having received that Power will engender confidence within you, and your Spirit will lift as a great plane does from the runway of Life; and you will know the marvelous sense of soaring out of human dimensions into a Consciousness where the Power of God can penetrate the substance of your Being and teach you the Reality of the Flame of Resurrection. This is My Hope for all.
Some have long pursued the Path indicated by Saint Germain; some have long loved My Son Jesus and their Own Divine Presence. Yet, who can deny, so long as man is veiled in flesh, that there is a great need for more of the Power of Spirituality to manifest. During this season preceding the celebration of His precious Resurrection, it is therefore My desire to fan the Flame of the Resurrection in all, that all may benefit thereby.
One of the points I choose to make to all is related, then, to the House of Being. In many places My Son stated that a house builded upon the sand does not stand the great onrush of the elements and the storms of life. He advocated that all should build their houses upon the "rock" - the foundation of spiritual Truth put into practice. The references to the rock are many in his conversations. And I feel then that today some reference to the bedrock of Man's Divinity is in order here.
If men with honesty of Heart build upon the rock of their Life, the House of Individualized Being, and realize that from that House of Self-Identity, they gaze out upon the entire universe, it will help them to understand that the self-same Being Who abides in their "House," abides also in the individual "Houses" of all men. If, as you go about your appointed tasks each day, whatever they may be, you will recognize that it is God who abides within the Temple of your Being; that it is His Mighty tangible Light Rays which reach out from you to contact and make real all the world around you, this Truth will bring you greater Peace.
Precious Ones, there is a world myth, created in the consciousness of men, which introduces the false concept of separation - the idea that Man can be separated from God or from the Flame of Life burning within his own Heart or the Hearts of his fellowmen. None of Us in the Heavenly Octaves can deny the value of the cloister. We do not seek here in this offering to rob mankind of the quiet sense whereby one goes apart from the world, as did My Son, to commune with God and be refortified. We simply wish to make clear that the feeling of being alone, of "isolationism," of detachment from Life, is always erroneous. This must be replaced by a Universal or Cosmic Sense of the flow of Life out from the "House of Identity" into a world filled with others in whom the Flame of Divinity also burns.
One of the most unfortunate problems facing man today - which has for centuries resulted in much distress - is this very problem of Identity. Men are lost in the wilderness of self. Men become driven to madness and suicide, prey of the negative forces of the world, simply because of their lack of identification with God-Reality. All this I would HEAL, and I can if you will let Me.
I know of none who are so high in spiritual stature, abiding yet upon Earth, who cannot be blest with some measure of Assistance from On High. I pray, then, if My offering herewith be not the full requirement of the blessed reader of My Words, that the Great Power of Light from Higher Octaves will radiate the fulness of the requirement of the moment to each one. It is not always necessary, Precious Ones, for each person to receive worded instruction on every subject; there are many times when the seemingly silent Power of the Angelic Host and of the Ascended Masters can be radiated into the receptive Heart with a Soundless Sound, extending great Holy Comfort to all. Be that as it may, there is in Our release, even in print, the chaliced attention of Heaven.
May I come to you for the next few weeks and further expand a portion of your Consciousness, until by that gentle impartation you become more and more aware of the Resurrected Christ - right within your beating heart?
