The Shekinah Fire

We wish to emphasize the fact that the body, of the man or the woman, or of the child, is supposed to be an Ark of the Covenant, an Ark of the Testament, a manifestation of the temple of the living God, a specific place that is supposed to be holy and sacred within which no ill vibrational pattern may be found, for wherever there are stress patterns in the vibrational factor at any level, the evidence of the presence of the One who dwells is withdrawn and only when the patterns of accord and true peace are again made evident can there begin to be the restoration of the manifestation of the evidence of the presence of the One who dwells. This manifestation is something which must be allowed to grow. It is something which appears in a creative field and does not manifest in its fullness in the instant. When it begins to appear, when the glowing light is first seen, we have evidence that the presence has been there for a considerable period, that the creative field has been maintained, that there have been no adverse vibrational factors, no discords, no resentments, no critical attitudes, no conflicts, no fear, for where these things rule we never see the beautiful glowing light of the cloud of glory revealing the evidence of the presence of the One who dwells.

As we meditate upon these basic factors we can begin to appreciate the great significance of the simple words: “Be still, and know that I am God.” “Be still, and know that I am God.” Generally speaking, human beings are not still enough long enough to permit any real beginning manifestation of the Shekinah Fire. Human reactions, patterns of attitude such as resentment, and the whirring of the endless rounds of meaningless thoughts, or so-called thoughts, maintain a condition which prevents the manifestation of the light that glows, and the cloud that forms, that in season the cloud may become still more dense, and the glowing light begins to appear as if it were a fire.

As long as human beings are more concerned about the expression and manifestation of their own ideas and concepts and desires, their own pattern of thought and word and action, yea and of feeling, than they are of the manifestation of the evidence of the presence of the One who dwells, they will have their reward: the privilege of expressing that which they think they think, which they think they feel, which they think they believe, which they think they wish to do; but none of these things bring peace or satisfaction or the glory of living. Only the futility and the emptiness of the processes of dying.

So it is that sooner or later, somewhere, somehow, we shall surely find among you or among some people somewhere those who are willing, yea eagerly willing, to be more concerned about the manifestation of the evidence of the presence of the One who dwells than they are concerned about making evident the expression of their own thoughts, and feelings, and words, and deeds. And when at last there are those who are willing, yea eagerly willing, to be with one accord in one place and to remain so, there shall surely be the beginnings of the manifestation of the cloud and within the cloud finally the beginning of the glowing of the light and within the light finally the reality of the Fire. And these reveal the evidence of the presence of the One who dwells….

Blessed are they who are willing to relinquish the meaninglessness of human expression that they may come at last to see the cloud and within the cloud the light that glows and within the light the Shekinah Fire, the evidence of the presence of the One who dwells, and from within the Fire, the Shekinah Fire, we hear the words: “Be still, be still, and know that I AM God.”
