Uranda  June 21, 1953  p.m.



Tonight our pattern of meditation centers in the essential processes of learning to know the Father. Continuing our general subject of Heavenly Magic, the magic of life, the magic of living, we would consider together the basic processes essential to coming to know the Father. [greatcosmicstory.blogspot.com/shekinah-magic-4seeing-father-john-14.html] Immediately the vital importance of this subject is evident to us, we remember the Master taught men to pray: “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is,” exactly as it is, “in heaven … For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.” In this beautiful and yet simple prayer the Master made a number of things very clear, which human beings have tended to forget.


“Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.” Our prayer is to the Father, and according to the Master the Kingdom already belonged to the Father at the time He spoke the words, “For Thine, O Father, is the kingdom, Thine is the power, Thine is the glory,” not something that was “going to be” sometime. There are those among the children of men who imagine that the kingdom in this world—the kingdoms of men, the kingdoms of man's affairs—belongs to someone other than the Father. But the Kingdom belongs to the Father, and the power necessary to the correct function in that Kingdom, and the Glory of Living in that Kingdom. And He did not suggest that we had to wait until some far-distant time. He suggested rather that His Gospel was, and is, that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand, not merely because the Master walked among men. The Kingdom is at hand, and has been, every moment of time, through all history. It did not reach a point of being at hand only when the Master came. It was at hand before, and He revealed the truth that it was at hand then, that it is at hand all the time, for all generations of men. And that was His Gospel, and how few there are who give heed to His Gospel. They have manufactured a supposed gospel out of human concepts and assumptions and beliefs, disregarding His Gospel, the Gospel that declares, “The kingdom of heaven is at hand.”


And He pointed us to the fact that when this Kingdom, when the Gospel of this Kingdom that is at hand, had been made known to all the children of men, the end of evil conditions in the world would come. Of all the fantastic concepts that have been developed this is one of the most fantastic: that human beings should expect the Kingdom to come floating down out of the sky somehow, to be arbitrarily imposed upon the children of men, and that human beings had nothing to do with the coming of the Kingdom into manifestation on earth. He said, “The kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Once we begin to acknowledge His Gospel—and that His Gospel has always has been—we begin to realize that we, individually and collectively, have a responsibility, the responsibility of sharing the work of letting that Kingdom come into manifestation in our lives, in our bodies, our minds, our hearts, our affairs and circumstances.


How can we let this Kingdom come? In the first place the Kingdom belongs to the Father—it already does. The Master said, before the crucifixion, before any of the events which human beings have imagined were necessary to the victory, the Master said, “The prince of this world cometh and findeth nothing in me.” He made this statement very clearly, that the victory had already been won. He said, “Fear not, I have overcome the world.” It was not necessary for Him to be crucified to save man. He had already established all the things necessary to the salvation of man before that horrible atrocity, the mockery of the trial and the crucifixion. As long as human beings are deluded into feeling that the crucifixion was somehow necessary to the salvation of human beings, we cannot possibly understand the great significance of the life and teaching of our Master on earth.


We must begin to recognize that God did not require the crucifixion. The crucifixion came because men rejected our LORD, not because God required it. We must begin to see that it was not necessary, but that it was the greatest atrocity of all times. If we in any moment imagine that the crucifixion was necessary, then we must at the same time acknowledge that there was one man who rendered the greatest service to all men, next only to our LORD and KING Himself, and that man, the greatest of all men of all time, to render the greatest service for all people, was Judas. If the crucifixion was necessary to our salvation then the greatest man that ever lived on earth outside of our LORD Himself was Judas. Judas did not serve God by betraying our LORD. It was an atrocity, plain and simple—unnecessary.


According to the Bible there is not one word that can be properly understood as meaning that that atrocity was required of God. The idea of Jesus dying on the cross is something that human beings have manufactured. They have imagined that they could concoct out of their own hearts a gospel and substitute it for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Jesus Christ was, and is, that the Kingdom is at hand and that the Kingdom belongs to the Father; that the world had already been overcome, that the processes of salvation had already been established, and the crucifixion was not in any sense necessary to the salvation of any human being on the face of the earth. Once we begin to see these things we can begin to take the correct attitude toward our LORD, and His life begins to take on far greater significance.


One of the points we begin to see is that He was revealing something of the Father. His greatest service to us was the revelation of the Father on earth. He revealed Deity; He revealed the processes by which Deity can work in every human life. He said, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also.” And yet, under the pattern of the common concept of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, human beings have imagined that the power to do the works of God vanished with the disciples. They have imagined that we could not let the power of God manifest to heal the sick, to clear the problems of daily life, to meet the issues of life, and to accomplish our Divine Purpose on earth. And yet the Master said, regardless of all human concepts and beliefs, “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also.” And that statement is without regard to race or color or creed or generation. It applies to us tonight as clearly as to any human being ever born on the face of the earth.


“He that believeth on me.” Once we begin to see the Master's own measurement of belief we begin to recognize that there are very few people in the world who do believe on Him, and we need to begin to understand what it means to believe. Believe on whom? Upon whom should we believe? Upon Jesus the man, through whom the Father was revealed? He said, “The Father and I are one.” He said, “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father.” He said, :The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father who dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.” Therefore who was it that said, “He that believeth on me”? Who is the me upon whom we are to believe? Not Jesus the man, but upon the Father. He revealed the Father, that we might know the Father; and until we begin to recognize that it is possible for us to know the Father ourselves we cannot possibly have the right attitude or understand the way by which we can approach the Father.



Not to believe merely upon Jesus the man. The body of Jesus the man was necessary to that revelation, and we do not detract from Him one iota when we recognize that all that He said and did was a revelation of the Father. We do not need to deify the body of the man. We do need to recognize the reality of the Father, and remember, He said, “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father.” Those who think they have seen, recognized or believed upon Jesus, and who have not recognized, seen and believed the Father, show by their own attitudes that they do not know what they are talking about. It is only as we acknowledge the Father that we can begin to know that for which we are here on earth.


Blessed ones, He taught us to pray: “Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come.” When? Did He add two or three thousand years from now? No, in any moment of time, in any generation, for any man, any woman, who would yield and let the will of God be done on earth as it is in heaven. How many there are who have imagined that we could not let the will of God be done on earth in exactly the same manner as His will is done in heaven. But we can. And until we recognize this basic principle of being, we cannot possibly know the Magic of Living, the magic of doing that for which we came into the world; for there is a Divine Purpose for each and every one. So we recognize the basic, fundamental truth of the Master's word, “The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father who dwelleth in me, He doeth the works.” Then let us begin to attribute the words to the One from whom they came, the Father. And once we begin to read the statements that came through the lips of Jesus to us, realizing that they are the words of the Father, they will begin to mean something to us, something that cannot be known as long as we are thinking of those words merely as the words of Jesus about the Father.


When are we going to believe on Him? The moment we do we are going to recognize that He and the Father were One already. He did not have to ascend into some heaven to be One with the Father; He did not have to go anywhere. He plainly stated that the Father was here on earth, and that the Kingdom of the Father was here on earth, at hand, within reach of every human being; and we need to begin to know the Father if we would let the Father control in our lives. “He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also.” And what are these works? The revelation of the Father. The Father doeth the works.


We remember the passage in the 3rd chapter of John: “But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” Here the Master plainly indicated that any human being, anywhere, in any generation, regardless of background, creed or color, could reach a point where he allowed God to do the works. And if God is doing the works, then you, the human being, are only the means by which the works of God are conveyed into the world. You are not doing the works. If you try to do the Will of God on earth you will fail. Only an egotist, who is ready to blaspheme the Name of our KING, would ever undertake to do the Will of God on earth. No human being can. Only when we reach a point where we are willing to let God Himself do His own Will in us and through us can we begin to accomplish that which we should. We must realize that it is the work of God in us, conveyed through us into the world of men, that counts. So we need to go back a little and make a new approach to a consideration of the Father, of what it means to know the Father.


What is the nature of the Father? In the same discourse in which He plainly stated, “The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father who dwelleth in me, he doeth the works,” we find these words: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” I am the way, the truth, and the life. Who is the way, the truth and the life? Jesus the man? Just the fleshly body of one individual, with a mind and a heart? No. As long as human beings try to imagine that somehow Jesus the man was the way, the truth and the life, they are going to fail to understand the teaching of our LORD and KING when He walked among men. He said, “I speak not of myself.” Who was speaking, then? The Father. And who was it who said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life”? It was the Father who said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”


Now let us see how we come unto the Father. How can we approach the Father? How can we begin to know the Father? If we have paid any attention to all of the many words our Master spoke which were recorded and brought down to us, we should begin to realize that, according to His Word, there is nothing more important to us than coming to the Father and beginning to know the Father, to understand the Father, and to let the Father's Will be done in our lives on earth exactly as the Father's Will is done in heaven. We turn to the 1st chapter of the Gospel according to John. In the 14th verse we read: “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth.”


“And the Word was made flesh.” What is the Word? We need to go back to the 1st verse to begin to see the answer to this question: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.



Now it has widely been assumed, and it is only an assumption, that the Word simply meant Jesus Christ. But Jesus did not exist until He was born on this earth. The body of Jesus had its beginning in the womb of Mary and did not exist prior to that time. The body of Jesus lived on earth for about thirty-three and a half years, and the body of Jesus ascended into the Father. Once we begin to understand the reality of ascension we begin to see that Jesus as such does not exist now. Jesus was the form in flesh through which the Father was revealed, but Jesus did not exist before His birth on earth, and there is no such being as Jesus now. There are those who would assume that such a statement is sacrilege. It is simply a recognition of that which the Bible teaches, once we separate the truth from the fiction, from the assumptions, the imaginations, which human beings have added to the Bible. No, it is not sacrilegious. It is a recognition of the truth, a part of that truth which we must see if we are going to be made free by the truth. Just as human beings imagine that Jesus had to die on the cross and that He did die—imaginations of their own hearts, not supported by the Bible, not supported by a word of Holy Writ anywhere—so have they been deluded of the devil and led into bypaths where the power of God could not have any real meaning in their lives. Concepts and beliefs that are not based in truth cannot make men free; they cannot make them as a power to live and to do; they cannot permit them to reveal the reality of the Father on earth.


The Master said, “Follow me.” How shall we follow Him if we refuse to let Deity be revealed through our lives, if we refuse to let the power of God be made evident, if we refuse to let our lives be governed by the Divine Design for us? No. The greatest lie the devil has ever managed to foist on human beings is the lie that Jesus died on the cross, or that He died at all. He did not die, and it is plainly evident, if we begin to study that which is contained in the Bible. If He had died He would have failed. He could not die unless the prince of this world was able to find something in Him; and those who say that Jesus died on the cross are declaring that our LORD was a liar, and that is sacrilege, that is blasphemy; for He was not a liar. He plainly said, “The prince of this world cometh and findeth nothing in me.” He did enter the state of a coma, but He did not die. If He had died we would indeed be in a very sad state of affairs. But, Glory to God in the Highest, He did not die, and He came forth victorious from man's most evil efforts to destroy God. If He had died it would have signified that man had the power to destroy God and to destroy the manifestation of God upon the earth. Man does not have that power. Jesus did not die upon the cross. Men's most evil intent could not cause that atrocity to achieve such a vile result.


Once we begin to realize that our salvation, or the fulfilment of life, whatever we want to call it, does not in any sense depend upon the crucifixion, we can begin to understand the true meaning of the Bible. And this is not talking about Jesus. It is talking about something which was revealed through Jesus, but Jesus did not exist until His body was formed in Mary's womb and He was born on earth. When we see that, we can begin to see the great and glorious significance of what He said and did, which has been buried beneath all the imaginations of men's evil hearts—the assumptions, the concepts and beliefs, which have no foundation in fact or truth. “In the beginning was the Word.” And what was the Word?


“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.”


Let us go back into the Old Testament pattern, which the Master was revealing in His teaching. Human beings have imagined that Jesus gave something new to the world. He gave new light to that which had already been revealed, yes, but the basic truths of being which the Master Himself taught and exemplified had been given to the children of men long before. He vitalized them, He made them real, yes; but they were known to men long before, but men did not know how to function in relationship to them. Human beings still do not know. They rejected that which He taught. That which He taught allowed human beings to begin to experience the process of drawing near to the Father, of beginning to see something of the Kingdom at hand, something of the Power of the Father, something of the Glory of the Father, in what is called the day of Pentecost. But what did they do? Impulsive Peter, always tending to be disobedient, always refusing to let the Father's Will be done, went out and started using that power according to his own concepts, according to his own beliefs and impulses. He violated the laws of God and led the other disciples in that violation. And what happened?


The day of Pentecost was supposed to be the beginning of the manifestation of power which should increase and multiply until the Power of the Kingdom should be known around the world. But Peter and the others threw it away! They refused to let God's Will be done. They refused to let the Divine Purpose work out. And what happened? Instead of the power increasing, as God intended that it should, the power began to decrease. The first flush of heavenly power manifesting through the forms of men and they used their own puny human wills; they rejected the design of truth. And Peter led the way in bringing on a state where the light almost vanished from the face of the earth, where the power of God diminished until those who thought of themselves as Christians became martyrs.


Martyrs, why? Because that was the way it should be? No! The very fact that they became martyrs proves that they were not letting God's Will be done, or those who were in authority in Rome or anywhere else would not have had the power to institute such conditions as throwing those who called themselves Christians to the lions, or burning them at the stake, etc. That stands as an indictment against human beings. There is nothing glorious in martyrdom, absolutely nothing. It did not show the power of God; it showed the weakness of human beings who had violated the laws of God and refused to let God's Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. If human beings had followed the instructions of our LORD and let the day or cycle of Pentecost fully come there would have been a different story in history. The first faint beginning of that cycle of Pentecost and Peter and the others rushed out and started using it wrongly, violating the law, throwing it away; and from that day the power diminished and soon was gone, and has not yet been again made manifest among those who call themselves Christians.


Until we begin to realize that we have continued down through the centuries to violate God's Will, to refuse to follow our LORD's leadership, to refuse to let the power manifest, we cannot possibly begin to understand the teaching of Jesus Christ. His own disciples were so ignorant of the Father, so ignorant of the Divine Plan, had so completely failed to grasp His meaning, that which He taught and exemplified and that which He did, that after He had been on earth, after the resurrection, for forty days—doing what? Talking to them about His crucifixion? about how His blood was shed on the cross so that people could be saved? No, that is a human fancy; it is a delusion of the devil.



What did He talk about after His resurrection? “To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.” And where had He said the Kingdom was? At hand, on earth. Over and over again He said this Kingdom was to have meaning on earth. And here He was ready to go through the process of final ascension, and He had been talking to them for forty days about the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God, and they could ask this inane, senseless question: “When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?” A complete failure to appreciate what He had told them about the Kingdom of God. “Wilt thou, Lord, at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?” All they could think about was a little kingdom among the kingdoms of this world—the kingdom of Israel. And those are the disciples. The ringleader is Peter, who did not let God's Will be done, who was not a great exponent of the teachings of Jesus Christ. Peter led the way impulsively into those violations of the laws of God by which the power of Pentecost was quickly lost and has never again reappeared. And until we get back to the basic fundamental teachings that Jesus Christ revealed to the world, we cannot know that power and the churches will continue to be weak and helpless, vapid things through which the power of God does not truly manifest.


We need to begin to live. We need to begin to see that here and now there is an opportunity for the Kingdom of Heaven at hand to have meaning in our lives. We need to stop and consider what Jesus taught and forget about the human concepts and beliefs, and examine the Law of God and begin to realize that we can, we can here, begin to so function in relationship to the Father that we, if we will, can let that power of Pentecost manifest; not just to have some kind of an emotional spree, but to let the power manifest for the accomplishment of the Will of God on earth, so that we do not make it a mockery every time we repeat like parrots the words of the Lord's Prayer. “Thy kingdom come.” When, where? Someday? Now! “Thy will be done on earth” exactly as it is in heaven, with exactly the same results, for exactly the same purpose: “For thine is the kingdom, and the power”—God has the power and He is offering it to us—"and the glory.”


And if we think we must die to find heaven and to find God and find the power, we are wrong. It is in this world that there is the need. Here is the need, not in heaven. Here are the miserable conditions, here are the injustices, here is the suffering, here is the sorrow, here are the things the Master came into the world to do away with: to save man from all these things, that man might begin on earth to be what he ought to be, a Divine Man, a Divine Woman, living in the Kingdom at hand, letting the power of God accomplish all things needful in the affairs of men. If we say it cannot be done we make of our LORD a liar, and judging Him to be a liar we reveal and judge ourselves to be liars; for He did not lie. Until we are willing to stop and examine the fact that the Master was teaching men to know the Father, that He revealed the Father, and He was teaching men how they could follow Him and they too could reveal the Father, we cannot begin to leave behind the sphere of life in which human beings have shown themselves to be such weak and helpless things for so long.


And those who claim to be Christians accomplish little more than those who do not. They suffer from the same ills. They become sick with the same diseases, they have the same troubles, the same weaknesses, and they go about saying, “Oh, I'm saved, I'm saved. I can't expect to get away from the miseries of this world while we are in the world; but when I die I'll go to heaven and I'll be saved.” Of all the contemptible, blasphemous nonsense! It is here on earth that we need to let the power of God accomplish something. If we have to die to do it, where is it going to be done? It is here that the need is, and you are going to postpone it until some future event, when the Bible says, “Now is the accepted time”? Now! We can begin to do our part in it.


It takes many others, and there are earnest ones in every belief and church upon the face of the earth, every creed and color, earnest, sincere human beings who simply have never seen the truth and do not know it; but they are searching for it, they are longing for it. They have been fed the husks of human imaginations and concepts and beliefs for too long. They want to know the bread, the banquet of the Father's House, and if we begin to give them a chance to find it they will rejoice in it, they will recognize that there is a Way, that there is the Truth and there is the Life that is to apply here on earth. The mere fact that you may think that you are saved and that you are going to heaven means nothing here on earth. Here we need to clear away the miseries. Here we need to heal the sick. Here we need to soothe the troubled hearts. The Master said, “Let not your heart be troubled.” If the heart is troubled, the power of God is able to stop the state of troubled existence.


We could, if we would let the power of God manifest, bring godless Russia to its knees; we could solve the international problems. There isn't anything that God could not do if human beings would let Him. It is not His Will that there should be war. It is blasphemy to say, “Why does God let war continue?” Why does God? Because human beings refuse to let God have His way, because they refuse to let His power manifest on earth, because they try to keep His Kingdom in heaven and refuse to let it extend into the world. It is not God's fault that there is war. It is not God's fault that there is bloodshed in Korea or somewhere else.


The power of God is sufficient so that if there were a hundred and fifty thousand real Christians on the face of the earth all told, all put together, a hundred and fifty thousand could let so much of the power of God manifest that the Soviet program would crumble like dust before the breeze. It could not stand. The healing power of God could manifest, so that instead of having to build more institutions for the insane they could be healed, instead of having to build more hospitals for the sick and the afflicted they could be healed, instead of having all of these miseries in the world the conditions could be changed. And they will be. “Behold, I make all things new.” How? Through man. But man must first let himself be made new; he must first let the Will of God be done on earth as it is in heaven.


And what does God's Will produce in heaven? Misery? Heavy burdens? Death? Those who say that the working of God's Will on earth causes them to have heavy crosses, to be afflicted, to die—"Oh, it's God's Will that so-and-so die. It's God's Will that so-and-so have this heavy burden.” Is it? That is blasphemy. To attribute these evil things to God's Will is plain blasphemy. It is not God's Will, for the working of God's Will on earth produces exactly the same results as the working of His Will in heaven; and if we say that His Will in heaven makes the beings there miserable, makes them die, makes them suffer of all kinds of diseases and carry all kinds of heavy crosses, and you can prove it to me, then I will agree with you that His Will on earth produces the same sort of thing. But if we believe what the Master said, we cannot believe that God's Will ever made anyone die, that God's Will ever made anyone suffer, that God's Will ever inflicted any ailment, any handicap, any suffering of any kind.



Whom do we believe? If we try to make Jesus Christ a liar there is nothing left but the devil of man's own self-active mind. But He said, “Thy will, O Father, be done on earth as it is in heaven,” and if it be done on earth as it is in heaven it will produce exactly the same results that it produces in heaven. And if it cannot be done in us then He was making a mockery of us when He taught us to pray. Either He knew what He was doing, knew what He was saying, and He spoke the truth, or He did not. Whom do we believe? If we believe Jesus Christ, then we know that He was not making a mockery of us. He was not mocking us. He was saying that the power of God could work on earth, and that the Will of God was to work on earth and produce on earth exactly the same results that would be produced in heaven.


Well, why try to get into heaven, then, to get the results? Why not let them appear on earth, where they are so sorely needed? Can you by going to heaven improve heaven so very much? Why not live on earth and improve something on earth? Some people seem to think that they are so ornamental that God can hardly wait to get them to heaven; they are going to improve the place so much, they are going to heaven. I hope they do. They are no good on earth. Let us not be concerned about being an ornament in heaven; let us be concerned about letting the Will of God do something on earth; let us be concerned about learning to know the Father, draw near unto Him, and let His Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. And if we are to let His Will be done on earth as it is in heaven, then it will produce the same results on earth and we do not have to go to heaven to get the results. God's Will in action on earth can meet any situation, including the world situation.


Human beings have jumped to a lot of conclusions and they imagine that Jesus has to come floating down out of the sky somewhere, somehow, on a cloud, and then it will all work out. He is going to do it all. He will hand it to us on a silver platter. We do not have to do a single, solitary thing but just be sure we are saved, and then He will do it all. What a lazy attitude, to say nothing of its blasphemous expression! What a lazy attitude! He is going to do it all, is He? He is the KING, and if we are His servants we had better get busy and do something and not leave it all up to the KING. If we are His servants we will do something, and we will do it on earth or we will not do it anywhere. It is here on earth that the conditions need to be changed, that the Will of God needs to be done. And human beings talk about trying to find out what the Will of God is. It is so easy! The Will of God is that … what? Do you want to know what the Will of God is? Let us read it from the Book; for this is the Will of God.


“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.” Now notice, this does not say, “And Jesus shall come down, floating on a cloud, out of the sky, with a whole lot of handkerchiefs to wipe away their tears.” It says God will do it. And how will God do it? Through human beings, through men and women who are willing to be citizens of His Kingdom, who are willing to let themselves be established in the pattern of the Divine Design. “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” That is what God's Will is. Are you going to accomplish it in human strength? No. But we can let the power of God accomplish it through us if we let the Father do it. If you let God act in you and through you, God will do it through you. You cannot do it alone.


Human beings have been trying to be as God since man first fell, and the so-called Christians of this day are not one whit better. Let us stop and consider. The so-called, self-styled Christians in the world, presumably following Jesus Christ, in the first place are not letting the power of the Father manifest, or we would not have these conditions in the world. The very situation in the world stands as an indictment against us all. And then what? So-called Christians are still looking for the Messiah to come and to fix everything up, and yet they become self-righteous in their attitudes about the so-called Jews who still say, “Oh, the Messiah is yet to come.” Christians and Jews alike, so called, are still looking for the Messiah to come and fix it all up.


The Messiah did come and He does not need to come again, and, according to His own Word, the Word of the Father through the lips of Jesus, “Lo, I am with you alway.” Not Jesus. The Father! “Lo, I am with you alway.” He revealed the Way, the Truth and the Life. What more do we want? To have it forced down our throats? Have it imposed upon us? It is a gift of God! When will we receive it and let that power of God have some meaning, let the Will of God do something? And God will cause the former things to pass away, the things that seem to rule today, in international affairs, in national and personal situations. God can cause these things of the unreal realm, the things of evil design, to pass away, if we let His Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. And only so can we share the victory.



Our gracious LORD and KING, we thank Thee for the holy privilege of coming before Thy Throne in the spirit of Thy Presence, to let Thy Will be done on earth as it is in heaven, to yield body and mind and heart to the working of Thy Will, that Thy power may accomplish Thy purpose and that we may let Thy Glory increase in the earth, that we may let Thy Kingdom come and extend into the affairs of men, that we may truly follow Thee, that Thy Kingdom may cover the whole earth, in form, to be seen of men; for Thy Kingdom is at hand and here, waiting for us to let it take form because we live, because we are willing to be Thy servants, citizens of Thy Kingdom, proving that Thy Kingdom is greater than all the kingdoms of the earth, proving that Thy power is greater than all the powers of the earth, proving that Thy Will can be done on earth exactly as Thy Will is done in heaven. And we do not need to try to get to some far-off heaven to let Thy Will be done. We thank Thee, Father, that it is so; for Thine is the Kingdom and the Power and Glory forever, in the Christ. Aum-en.
