I Am Not Limited To These Things

I  Am  Not  Limited  To  These  Things

from  Shekinah Patterns

You heard My Voice. My Voice—was it the voice of a man, just the voice of a man? Some people thought so. But, if that is all it was you had no business following it, no business turning to see it, no business giving heed to it. Only to the degree that the Voice you hear is the Voice that portrays and conveys the reality of the Shekinah of the Presence of the One Who Dwells, can it be of any real value to you—and the same is true of you. Man takes his voice, his vocal equipment, and undertakes to use it according to his own design, to say what he thinks he wants to say. And out of the imaginations of his evil heart, his mouth speaketh. And he never begins to find out the secret of the creative Word. What is the creative Word? The Word of God. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth by His Word—by His Shekinah. The Word of God, the creative Word of God, is always the Shekinah and the Presence of the One Who Dwells. The sounds of the lips, the sound of a word, has much to do with your relationship to Shekinah; but what is the Word, the Magic Word, the Creative Word, the Creative Word of God?

Think you to take that Creative Word and use it for yourself, your own purposes, your own will? It cannot be done. But you can begin to be the manifestation of that Word. And what is the Word? It is the Shekinah, which is to say, the evidence of the presence of the One Who Dwells; and the evidence must manifest on the plane where it is to act, the evidence must take form in the realm where it is to achieve something. The evidence of the presence of the One Who Dwells that is in some realm that is invisible to us is of no value to us. Until the vibratory factors are connected up, the right patterns of focalization are established, the right creative fields are established, the cycles are initiated, and we begin to let the things of God come down into the earth—the new spiritual vision, the new spiritual power, the new reality of being, begins to come down from God out of Heaven into the earth, to produce something here.

The evidence of the Presence of the One Who Dwells must take form in this world in relationship to the daily affairs of men if it is to have any meaning. Man has been trying to function outside of the Shekinah for so long and he does not accomplish anything worthwhile: he plays childrens' games, but accomplishes nothing. Oh, there are so many good people who accomplish so much according to the standards of the world. But, did they? Only that which allowed to some degree the revelation of the form, the evidence of the Shekinah, has had any real meaning, any real value. To what degree did it take form on earth, here, so that it could have meaning in clearing away the patterns of distortion or evil, and establish the patterns, the beauty, the wonder, the glory, of the Garden which God planted eastward in Eden—in the days of our tomorrows, that we may let it come forth out of the future into the present and take form in our lives and around us. And until we begin to realize this and to remember it all the time, we cannot begin to be what we ought to be. All things were made by Shekinah; and without Shekinah was not any thing made that was made. And that which is made by Shekinah fits—Divine Wisdom, the sense of the fitness of things.

Talk about knowing Shekinah—you have not even started,

you just have a bare glimpse, just started to begin.

So, let no one delude himself.

Blessed ones, a part of this equipment for the revelation of Shekinah, according to your particular pattern of focalization in the cosmic scheme of things, includes your voice. And, there will be those, when you truly speak, or truly let the Father speak the words, let Shekinah use your vocal equipment—there will be those who begin to hear. The recognition that is produced and brought forth by Shekinah—can you have it if you do not produce in the pattern of Shekinah? If you speak in the pattern of Shekinah there will be those who hear. It is not a question of if, or maybe. There will be those who hear. How long must you speak? When do you expect those who hear your voice to answer, and how? If you have it all figured out—you'll speak this moment, they'll respond the next, they'll recognize you the next, everything will be almost instantaneous, you will achieve great things you will. You will achieve nothing! You will achieve nothing on that basis. If you act for the purpose of securing a specific result you will fail. If you speak for the purpose of securing a specific result you will fail! It will cease to be Shekinah in action, and when you try to produce a substitute, an imitation of Shekinah action and function, you will fail. All things were made by Shekinah; and without Shekinah was not any thing made that was made. When you let the Shekinah Pattern express through you in word, in deed, in attitude, it will be the right thing.

How many times back along the way have I had human beings reach a point where they thought they could begin to receive the Word of the Lord, to express it, and they would get some idea or other, they would have some realization, and they would say, “Now, I've learned how to let the Spirit work through me, but the Father doesn't tell me that which fits with what Uranda says. Uranda is wrong now. He taught me how to let the Father speak through me, but now he is wrong; because I can get the Word of the Lord myself, and the Word of the Lord says to me that this is the way it is, and that is the way it is, and that person is wrong, and Uranda is off over there, and this and that and the other thing. Suddenly he or she is the center of things, everyone else should come into step with that one; and if everyone does not, why, he or she is insulted. “Well, this is the Word of the Lord.” And yet it does not fit. It is not the Word of the Lord, it is the imaginations of their own evil hearts!

But once you begin to let the Shekinah revelation of the One Who Dwells appear through your voice, there will be those who hear—whether they be here or somewhere else is beside the point. If we limit ourselves to the particular range of the sound of our voices, in the auditory sense, we do not yet know ourselves. Do you think I speak to you alone when I talk here, or that only because it is going onto the tape recording that someone else will hear it some day, or that you will repeat it and express the same idea in the current of the Spirit and someone will hear it? I am not limited to these things. The Voice that speaks to you speaks not to you alone, not merely to those who shall hear by reason of the recording, not merely to those to whom the revelation shall appear because of your voices, but to those who hear with the ear of the heart without respect to time or place or distance. I am not speaking to you alone. And those who are my sheep will hear My Voice, and they will not hearken unto the voice of a stranger. But those who are not my sheep, they will not hear My Voice. They will listen to the voice of strangers and pay the price.

It is not that some are predestined to one position and some to the other. It comes back to the pattern of response. If it is necessary that My Voice be the means by which Shekinah conveys the realities of being to you, then it likewise must be that your ear, your physical ear, your ear of the heart, your ear of the mind, your ear must be the means by which Shekinah conveys understanding to you. If I must speak in these patterns of being, so likewise must you hear in these patterns of being; for if you do not hear in the reality of Shekinah, you will not hear truly. If you hear according to your ideas and concepts and beliefs, then you will not hear what I say, you will only hear what you imagined that I said. If it is necessary to make my words meaningful that they be a revelation of the Shekinah Pattern of the Presence of the One Who Dwells, then it is just as important to hearing, as in speaking, that it be the pattern of the Shekinah in you. And unless you learn to hear in the pattern of Shekinah, you will never learn to speak in it.

You must learn to hear in the Shekinah Pattern of Being first; and then you can learn to speak in it. But you must hear first, and then speak. You must perceive first, and then express. You cannot learn to express and then learn to perceive. Human beings approach what they conceive to be the spiritual realities of life on that basis. They are going to learn to express it and then they will have perception of all the wonders and the beauties. They are going to do something great in speech or word or act, they are going to have the power and expression, and then they will be able to perceive the wonderful and lovely things all around them, because they have produced them. It does not work that way. Man always tries to do things backwards.

Once you begin to realize that you must begin to perceive the things of God, first, the things of the Shekinah Pattern of Being—learn to hear, first—then you can begin to speak, then you can begin to act, then you can begin to express. Blessed ones, you cannot express Shekinah; you must let Shekinah express itself through you. And if you have not yet learned to perceive in Shekinah, you cannot express it. Let it unfold. Move on into the pattern. Let it not be delusion; let it be a matter of increasing awareness. Learn to perceive, learn to hear, learn to feel; and truly learning these things, you will reach a point of truly speaking, truly expressing, truly conveying, that which is the reality of the Presence of the One Who Dwells.
