you must be ready to receive that offering that is given to you from on high

    Consider then that as you approach your fellowman each one is still in the childhood of attainment and must be so regarded.  By this attitude the ladies of heaven maintain a permanent state of grace in loving understanding and consideration for the evolutions of this planet.

  You recall the statement “Never underestimate the power of a woman.”  I say to you, do not underestimate the power of the divine feminine, of that ray that is anchored in your heart from the Divine Mother or the power of the ladies of heaven to effect change in the world of form….

  Beloved ones, it is so important that equality not manifest among mankind as competition.  Equality is the opportunity to rise to one’s own God-source in the administration and outpicturing of one’s own divine plan fulfilled.  How important it is especially for disciples on the pathway of attainment to understand that they are never competing with one another but only with their own momentums, striving to overcome and to arrive just a little bit ahead of the mark where they perhaps another time had failed….Beloved ones, it is never your true Self that is out of harmony with the universe, for your divine Identity is the Mighty I AM Presence and in that you must stand and face and conquer every situation that would array itself against you.  The soft voice, the gentle whisper of the Holy Spirit is the only presence of the creative force of Life within you.  The holding to and clinging fast to that vine of divinity will work wonders in the world of form for you.  

  And whenever you are amidst the tempest, as beloved Jesus was in the boat and the sea roared without, remember that you can simply say “Peace, be still, and know that I AM God!”  And you can call to your Mighty I AM Presence, the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood or an individual ascended being and say “Mighty I AM Presence, take command of that situation!” and know that all will be well.  Then turn your attention to God and go about your daily activities.  Do not feel that you must strive with opposition, for the forces of light, the powers of Michael’s band and of all the archangels stand ready to go forth to do battle for you as you continue to press forward toward the mark of the high calling in Christ Jesus.

  Remember that, beloved ones, you do not need to struggle:  the hosts of the Lord are encamped about you and they indeed go forth.  And they are the conquerers.  But remember that in this world you must always consider that the manifestation of God is sometimes of necessity tempered by the conditions of time and space; at other times instantaneous precipitation is possible.  Therefore expect the immediate, but be willing to wait in patience in the possession of your souls for the fulfilling of the divine within you.  It is true that saints in the past have lost initiations and have failed tests because of impatience.  Your patience must be tried, for it is the trying of your faith, of your momentum and your dedication--and this must be tested in all ways.  For to give you the full power of the kingdom all at once, as beloved Ray-O-Light explained to you, would mean that with that added power you would have double the karma or triple the karma or whatever increase that power would mean to you.  And so you must be ready to receive that offering that is given to you from on high.

  Your cup must be expanded--the chalice of your heartflame.  And this is an hourly process, it goes on continuously.  And you must learn how to meditate while you are about your daily tasks; this is so important….For if you are not in attunement with God at all times, how can He act for you in time of danger or crisis or opposition?  It means that in the presence of danger you must first make your attunement before you can receive assistance.  In the life of a disciple there is not time for this, beloved ones, attunement must be ready as an armor, as a sword of truth….Attunement is somewhat of a subconscious quality, it is begun with the outer mind, it is begun by its supplication, by the prayer to the Holy Christ Self to take command and continue the prayers and decrees of your heart throughout the twenty-four hours.  This is an important request and it should be made before you even rise from your beds.  You must say to yourself if you are to follow in the pathway of the Mother of the World and of the Christ: 

   “Beloved Mighty I AM Presence, Father of all life, act on my behalf this day.  Fill my form; release the light that is necessary for me to go forth to do Thy will, and see that at every hand the decisions I make are according to Thy holy will.  See that my energies are used to magnify the Lord in everyone whom I meet.  See to it that Thy holy wisdom released to me is used constructively for the expansion of God’s kingdom.  And above all, beloved heavenly Father, I commend my spirit unto Thee and ask that as Thy flame is one with my flame the union of these two flames shall pulsate to effect in my world the continuous alertness and attunement which I need with my Holy Presence, with the Holy Spirit and with the World Mother.”  

  And then accept this in full faith, beloved ones, and realize that then the Hierarchy of Light may take over your form, your world….For you will be on guard in the vanguard of light; this is the requirement of the hour.  For as K-17 told you at the last class it is necessary that this group of disciples shall become the fuse that shall trigger the blazing torch of the flame of truth throughout the entire planetary body as a mighty catalyst of light.

  Do not underestimate your service to the light then, and realize that one with God is a majority for the entire planetary body.  And this is scientific, for we have proven it, we have demonstrated it….This knowledge which was known to us as we were the followers of the Christ has been carried hand to hand through the centuries, and it has not been lost.  And now this torch is given to the many in the outer world as the knowledge of the sacred fire which must be spread abroad….

  Remember that you are chosen because you have chosen….As you give to your fellowman so it is multiplied unto you….Steel your minds, precious ones, and realize that the discipline of the Law is the saving grace of mankind.  The discipline of the Law is mercy, for as you align yourself and your four lower bodies with the Being of God you appreciate that there are vast spheres of power that may be released to you because you are one with the Law.  The Law is not bondage; obedience is never a chain, beloved ones….The Law is a conscription of energy:  it defines what man can do and what he cannot do.       (to be continued)
