This Day Of Resurrection

This  Day  Of  Resurrection

Martin Cecil   April 15, 1979

I greet you as angels on this beautiful, fresh morning before the rising of the sun. Easter morning at this time represents to us the resurrection of the world. This is the day, this is the cycle, of that resurrection. Out of the night of human nature comes the day of man restored. What shall that be? Eye certainly hath not seen. No one on the face of the earth knows; no, not the angels of heaven, but the Father only. 

Here is the proclamation made this day by His angels on earth

Standing together here as angels, O Lord, in the fresh dawn of a new day, we are thankful for the opportunity of confirming this proclamation, knowing our responsibility, and that of all Thine angels in expression on earth, to let it be so. We rejoice together in the wonder of Thy presence known in this hour, in the wonder of the presence of all the hosts of heaven who stand with Thine angels incarnate on earth to glorify Thee, to let Thy will be done, as all things are caused to work together to perfection. It is our delight to share these moments, not so much in memory of the past or even in expectations of the future but in the joy of this present eternal moment. We are here on earth to let Thy will be done, that in Thy power the fulfilment of Thy creative works may be brought to pass, the fulfilment toward which the prophets and men of God over the ages have looked. We are deeply honored and privileged to play our part on earth at this time. 

O Lord, in the oneness of Thy spirit we stand together with all Thine angels everywhere on the face of the earth, in this moment and in each moment to come, as the fulfilment of Thy creative plan for the world is brought to pass. Glory to Thee in the highest now and forever. Aum-en. 

We stand here with our feet firmly planted upon the earth, our heads enfolded in the air of the spirit, knowing the wonder of heaven on earth because we live. Let us let this wonder be ever present in our experience as we move together in this day and in all the days to come. Let us never allow our angelic responsibility to slip even for a moment from our fingers, but let us let the rod of truth be held firmly, that the expression of our living may always be true to that, the glory of Thy spirit made known on earth in creative action. How blessed we are to be here, to know why we are here, to accept the commission that we know, to reveal the fact of it in our living constantly and consistently. How beautiful is this day! 

Here indeed is a symbol of the clarity which is offered by the children of God, in the name of the Lord, here on earth. It is many years since we have had an Easter sunrise service in the open air on Sunrise Ranch. This is the first occasion since the Dome Chapel has been built. This is the first occasion in this particular grouping of people, of angels. This is the first occasion in this particular positioning here beside the Little Chapel. All things are made new. The day itself is new. Who could anticipate a more perfect setting on this Easter morning? It is a little cool. What's wrong with that? We have in the past known it a lot cooler. Is the sky blue above us? What's wrong with that? Here is symbolized the enfoldment of the truth. The sun rises in the east because the face of the earth turns toward it, so that this valley in season may be filled with the golden glow of sunlight, the symbol of God's love. We are all here present together, giving evidence of life, the life which glorifies God on earth.

In this moment the sun itself comes over the horizon, and we rejoice in the beauty and the wonder of the spirit of the living God made manifest, made known, because we live. Peace be unto you in this hour, that the peace of God may be made known on earth, to His glory forever.
