This Is He, Of Whom It Is Written
This Is He, Of Whom It Is Written
from Mountainside Meditations #1
Uranda January 31, 1946
In the long ago the Psalmist, from the depths of his heart-felt Realizations, burst forth into song: “Lift up your eyes unto the Hills, from whence cometh your help.” As we gather here on the mountainside where the stillness of nature is felt and brings peace, the afternoon sun is moving toward its place of setting beyond Green Ridge Mountain which is behind us, and we look out across the valley below to the foothills beyond. Up and down the valley our vision carries to hill and mountain formations where each passing hour brings changes of light and shadow which give a sense of something always new in the beauties of nature that surround us. Here we know that we stand on Holy Ground—for this is the place that has been dedicated to our Master's Service in the earth. In this setting provided for us by our Lord and King, we live and work in and for and with His Service to the children of men.
As pioneers we live a rather rugged form of life, devoid of many conveniences deemed to be essential to city dwellers. Here in the wilderness we are building an Altar unto our God, that all who will may come to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. Here is a place of training where each one works with his hands, that he may fulfill the age-old obligation which was placed upon man when he first sinned for in thus meeting this basic obligation we find that once again we are privileged to hear the Master's Voice as He comes walking in the Garden in the cool of the day. Not all can hear His Voice at first, and those who try, or demand, to hear, as some in this world have been so bold as to do, are those who shall surely fail; for though they heard the Sound of His Voice, they would not recognize it as such. How true are the words that are written: “Spiritual things must be Spiritually discerned.”
In the breeze through the leafless trees, we hear—in the song of the wind through the evergreens, we hear—in the sound of the human voice which gives expression to the things of God, we hear—and in so many things we see, which make no sound to the human ear, we hear the Voice of Him Whom we Love and Serve.
Should any come to this Hallowed Spot seeking revelations concerning great mysteries, he would go away convinced that we are ignorant of the mysteries. To those of the world this is just a little ranch in the foothills of the Rockies. Only those who come in the Spirit in which we abide here, will be able to see that which we see and hear that which we hear.
Back through the ages the Lord has wrought wonders in human beings who have Served Him in the wilderness. Our Master Himself was often in the wilderness and it was there that He won His first Great Victory. It was in the wilderness that the children of Israel murmured against God, and because of their lack of faith they were caused to wander therein for forty years. What awaits us in the wilderness? Shall there be murmurings and wanderings because of the shortness of vision? Or shall we see the promise fulfilled that the wilderness shall blossom as the rose? Shall the dry ground yield water-springs for the Faithful Ones?
Again the words of the Master sound forth to those who have ears to hear: “What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet. For this is He, of Whom it is written. Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.”
In the wilderness we abide, that for all who will receive the promises may be fulfilled. As the Kingdom of our Lord is not yet fully manifest in the earth, so, also, that which this wilderness is to become, is not yet seen by human vision—for we have but begun to build the Altar unto our God. As we have come into the wilderness to Serve our King, so, also, have we come to that place of testing which shall in season prove as to “who shall be able to stand” and share in the Victory of our Lord.

Beloved Uranda, We, the earthly human body, created in our "beginning", to represent and
serve our LORD and KING here in Heaven on Earth, that HIS WILL may be
done constantly and consistently and fully for ever.... but we chose to
check out "rebelliousness" and fell, big time! from WHOLENESS, from THAT
I AM, from LIFE, from TRUTH, from LOVE, from REALITY, from CONSCIOUSNESS
and so on, causing cataclysmic 180 degree shift, with regards to All the
Earthly World of Life forms, that we were created to take Care of In
LOVE With OUR LORD and KING, which now had to become a temporary
substitute pattern for caring for us, now self-centred, arrogant,
catatonic, insensible, amnesic, defensive/aggressive, humans......
Uranda, You in Holy Union with our Lord and King, have Sounded the Wake
Up Tone of the Truth of Love, in the Earth for all to Hear! This is the
Time for 'substitutes for human survival' to be restored to The True
Nature of Divine Design, and for 'me' ('us') to fully awaken, fully
repent, fully yield to and Praise our most Beloved Lord and King for His
Patience, His LOVE, His Wisdom and Perfect Design!.... I am here to let
THEE , O BELOVED LORD and KING, to have THY WAY in me.... in ALL WAYS
It IS He of Whom it was written: Firstly: Jesus, born of the Virgin Mary, came on earth to reveal the Way of Love in and through the Spirit of Truth---there was no other way one could know the Reality of Love; for He IS the ONE of Whom it is written. Secondly, John the beloved disciple having moved closely with His Master, was the Revelator of Truth, of Him Whom it was written. He revealed this Truth by carrying on in the same Spirit as the Master. Thirdly, Uranda in the latter days---TODAY: The Spirit of Truth in him reveals that 'This is He, of Whom it is written." His message is also: "Lift up your eyes unto the Hills, from whence cometh your help." This was the beginning of our training days through the Third Sacred School. It is no less so today because we are here to let this training, which we gladly received and accepted at that point in time, NOW be a revelation of the Truth and the Truth of Love in and through our daily living. We are here to do likewise because we know in our hearts that "This is He, of Whom It is written." So I/we continue to let our daily living, moment by moment, BE a witness to Truth, Love and Life, And anyone in the Lord's Body who are interested and are seeking His Truth will also need to be trained in this new way of life on earth.
I love Uranda's description of the valley and Holy Ground concerning this place called Sunrise Ranch. It had been dedicated to our Master's Service in the earth through one's living and working "in and for and with His Service to the children of men." But whether we live in that valley or any other place on earth, the Spirit of Uranda's words holds just as true in the place where we reside and should be dedicated to our Master's Service, because it is a setting that was and is provided by our Lord and King! I see this very applicable to where I am present and physically residing. This was the wilderness for me, and in that wilderness I was building an Altar unto our God, "that all who will may come to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth." Here was a place which, apparently, required some further training on my part; it was also a place where I saw and understood that here is the perfect place to let Truth prevail in my living, to let Love radiate without concern for, or about, results: Freely I have received, freely I give---no strings attached!...and I Am free to continue expressing Spirit That I Am.
"In the breeze through the leafless trees, we hear---" I won't repeat the whole paragraph but it speaks volume. "---and in so many things we see, which make no sound to the human ear, we hear the Voice of Him Whom we Love and Serve." Yes, Yes, Yes!
"But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet. For this is He, of Whom it is written. Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee." Thankful I Am for Uranda. In due season, we become and are a messenger of the Lord.
"As we have come into the wilderness to Serve our King, so, also, have we come to that place of testing which shall in season prove as to 'who shall be able to stand' and share in the Victory of our Lord." In the last little while I was pondering the Flaming Sword, because passing the Flaming Sword is most necessary if we are to know Victory. It's not just a one-shot-deal either; it comes as often as needed in any moment and to each one as necessary. And I saw a new heaven and a new earth for the old heaven and earth had passed away...this is continuous movement and seeing when delighting in serving our Lord and King. Nothing delights us more than this in the wilderness we abide, for we know and understand why we are where we are wherever that is on this beautiful Planet Earth. So wonderful to be together in this wonderful work---the reason for our incarnation and presence on earth now.
