Who is aware of a vibrational intensification which occurred a little while ago, particularly when Richard was speaking? There is something available to be sensed, perhaps, here. It is vital that one should be aware of what is happening vibrationally. We tend to have our awareness, as we well know, filled with forms. Vibrational impacts that come are usually based in uncontrolled emotion; then we feel something intense. But in a controlled atmosphere such as we have here, and in the building that has been taking place in this vibrational sense, we need to have very keen awareness of this so that we don’t discount it.
We can use words to convey something as it relates to the vibrational state, but it is the vibrational state itself that is of vital concern. Again we come back to the awareness that we’ve had, presumably, for a long time, that, as it has been put, this is a vibrational ministry. Well, if it is, we need to know what’s going on then. And most of the things that people think are going on relate to form rather than to vibration. But our concern is to abide in the ark, and the ark is a vibrational ark. We need to be aware of what it is that is happening in that way.
I don’t think Richard was talking particularly about things out of the past. Perhaps there’s a tendency to relate Richard to his undertaking of this particular book he’s writing, which relates to matters out of the past. But he’s writing it for a purpose which is not particularly related to the past; it relates to the present. And he brought to focus an intensity of spirit that shouldn’t be denied.
How capable are we of receiving intensification of spirit? Some have described that as fire falling from heaven. It is this that is of supreme importance, isn’t it? The prophets of Baal of old were very active and very busy trying to produce something. Nothing happened; there was no answer, no one took any notice. This is the human state. We say there is no answer. Not everybody has recognized yet that there is no answer, that the god isn’t answering, Baal is not providing anything. But we are responsible for letting the answer be experienced, and I suppose the vital word here is experienced. And if it happens to begin to be experienced so that we sense an intensification, let’s pay attention to it so that we don’t get side-tracked by something else. I was delighted in what happened when Richard allowed this focus to appear, and I certainly was moved by this. Were we not all moved by this? Or didn’t we take note of it? Were we not sufficiently alert to sense what was happening and what was available to come to focus, to be received into expression and radiation?
We talk about apocalypse. Apocalypse merely means the passing of the first heaven and the first earth. That’s all it means—that all that has composed what I suppose would be referred to as civilization dissolves. That’s apocalypse. How it dissolves is unimportant. That it dissolves is important; it is important to us, presumably. However, it is very important, insofar as we are concerned, that this should have dissolved in us, so that we are open and free and capable of receiving the fire falling from heaven.
There is speculation about what the cataclysm is, what that might be. Perhaps it might be well to note that in the statement that is made in the twenty-fourth chapter of Matthew, something was said about wars and rumors of wars, but the end isn’t yet. This conceivably might indicate that it isn’t war that is evidence of the end. People have been looking with trepidation toward nuclear war. That has receded a little in consciousness, although there are many so-called peace groups who are much concerned about the matter. But as we well know, that’s only one small part of the massive threat that there is to continued existence on earth.We are not looking for descriptions in form of what is referred to as cataclysm. Maybe it’s not a cataclysm, in the usual human definition of the word. Maybe it’s just apocalypse. That’s very simple: the passing of the first heaven and the first earth, that’s all. Let’s let it pass. To let it pass we must surely be identified with what it is that makes it possible for it to pass. There have been many opportunities in times past for it to pass. It nearly passed, presumably, in the time of the Deluge—not quite. And that not quite was important too, because it was indication of the fact that when the passing actually occurs, there would be a focus of the reality that remains. Evidently there wasn’t adequate reality insofar as what was represented by Noah and his family were concerned. It was Noah who provided the point of focus—his family evidently did not share that with him, and so the whole thing started over again.
But now we come to apocalypse, which is the passing of the first heaven and the first earth—no more, no repeat. I am reminded of some words that you may recall, words of Uranda, spoken quite a long time ago, where he said it was necessary to live as though everything ended tomorrow, and also to live as though it was going to last for the next thousand years. In other words one has to deal with the situation as it is now, but without giving it any particular weight. Apocalypse certainly is not the rise and fall of the stock market or any of these things; it’s the passing of the stock market. It is the passing of everything of human invention. This boggles the mind, but it doesn’t boggle the spirit. We have reached a point where, in theory at least, we are willing that these things should pass. We are going to find out as to whether that attitude can be sustained in the actual passing. Well, there is an actual passing going on now, but it is a long way from being complete.
The passing comes because there is this focus of the fire present in human form on earth. It comes because of that. If we can equate ourselves with that fire in the human form which accommodates it, then we see we are responsible. And whenever there is an intensification which appears in a vibrational sense, that is what is to be welcomed. We don’t need to speculate as to what that intensification is going to do. What it is going to do is dissolve the first heaven and the first earth. We can say that in general terms. What it is going to do specifically in any given moment remains to be seen.
Richard mentioned something about men’s hearts failing them for fear. Sometimes an intensification, particularly when it is discerned here, is interpreted as fear. That sometimes happens for a person who gets up to speak before a crowd of people. We’re all seasoned Emissaries here, of course, and we’re able to do that with the greatest of ease. But I suspect there are situations where it might be not as easily handled as it is in front of other Emissaries or those who are at least somewhat open to what we have to offer. Then comes the question as to whether we interpret that as fear or not.Almost anything that human beings feel, touch in feeling, can be interpreted one way or another. It can be revealing of the emergence of the creative process, the intensity of the fire. In such case it is cause for the greatest thanksgiving. Otherwise, interpreted as fear, then there is the inclination to run for cover.
The instruction is to stand. One cannot stand except as one is present in that fire. If the sensation that comes is interpreted as fear, one is immediately in the yellow part of the flame. If one accepts the vibrational intensity as the radiation for which one is responsible, then it is easy to be still. “Be still, and know that I am present.” And it is that presence that permits the fulfillment of the purpose for which individually and together we are present on earth.
“In this moment, be still and know that I am present.” Whenever any measure of intensity is experienced, let these words be recalled: “Be still, and know that I am present.” I am the intensity. And if my human form is aware of that, the human form to that extent is sharing in my presence. The intensity may be allowed to build. “Be still, and know that I am present. I come in the name of the King.” This word, “the King,” becomes increasingly comprehensible in our own experience. “I am come in the name of the King”—and the King’s name is I AM. I cannot come in the name of the King without saying and revealing “I am present.” And in that presence, the power of the spirit of the King, the power of love, pours forth. It pours forth under control and within the design of truth. It is under control because what is experienced is known for what it is and not misinterpreted. “Be still, and know that I am the King and I am present.” Such a statement made by any one of us does not cause any of us to assume, as an individual, the position of the King, but it does allow the King to be present because I am present.
Perhaps we share in these moments something of an exercise in letting vibrational intensity be rightly used. It is not used to benefit us in any way whatsoever. It is used to fulfill the purposes of the King. We no longer have any inclination whatsoever to judge how those purposes should be fulfilled. All we are concerned with is that they be fulfilled.
Comment — Martin, I feel something has to come back, and I haven’t anything clever to say or anything formulated, but just rejoice in the intensity of this moment with you, and realize the incredible intensity and respect and love in the allowing of my capacities to reveal all they can of my King and who I am. I think we could have gone on forever listening to you verbalize what is in the atmosphere right now. But something also had to come back. So here it is.
Martin — It comes back, brought to focus specifically by you. Let what comes back, brought to focus in this way, be what is present in each one. There begins to be a sense of reverence and respect and love and humility, because we are in this moment in the presence of the King. It might be said that all people are in the presence of the King, but the fact has been hidden; there is the mystery of God. But here it’s finished. And I rejoice to receive what you bring as a person, but I receive it because it is representative of what is brought by all who are subjects of the King.
"But our concern is to abide in the ark, and the ark is a vibrational ark. We need to be aware of what it is that is happening in that way" There are some statements that inspire to the core, and this requirement to be awake and alert to what is happening vibrationally, strikes home. I'm so aware that I could be more attentive and quiet in this regard, and occupy the place in Heaven which is so needed. When there is that still presence and heavenly substance is provided, the fire is allowed to fall, and the King is represented. I know when this happens, I experience it. In these days of much more obviously on the move, that presence is the anchor. There is an intensification in progress, and I need to be home, in the Ark, for that call.
Thank you, Anne, for your comment---Your Voice is heard! It is easy to understand what you expressed here---I love it! I AM with you in this vibrational Ark!
Quoting Martin, "There begins to be a sense of reverence and respect and love and humility, because we are in this moment in the presence of the King."---and this is never hidden from me at any time as I continue to be His subject, and being one of His subjects, I An able to proclaim in my living: The mystery of God is indeed finished here. "Come, and behold Him." That is my Vibrational Voice speaking to anyone in my immediate world and expanding further out. I delight abiding in the Ark with increased understanding; but to also be alert and aware of what is happening vibrationally---this is crucial to be of any real service as the fire from heaven falls with greater intensity. Perhaps it is safe to say that I Am present, representing my King, because I can't think of any other reason or purpose for not doing so!
