Father Divines message given at the banquet table at 152-160 west 126th street new york city thursday, nov. 3, 1938 at 1:30 p.m.
The great essential of harmonizing with GOD in every thought, word, gesture and deed, was stressed by our OMNIPOTENT KING, FATHER DIVINE, in His dynamic Message given on the above date.
While it is not always possible for us to ascend spiritually to be with Him at all times, because we have not yet attained the highest degree of unfoldment, it behooves us to harmonize as far as we can, according to the plane on which we are functioning.
WE THANK YOU, FATHER.
(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, and the following is FATHER’S Message.)
PEACE, EVERYONE!
Here we all are again, whatsoever that means. As much as you are, even that much you should be one with Me and permit Me to be One with you so far as you go. If out of the category of your existence or your measure, I stand or I go, naturally, you could not be one with Me there, out of your category, out of the world in which you are existing; but as far as you can, permit Me to be one with you that you might be one with Me.
It is evidently known, according to the divers degrees of unfoldment, all may not be functioning in the same degree; therefore, if it happens to be I AM functioning in a different degree, where you are not actually functioning, naturally, you cannot be with Me there. But as much as you are and as far as you go, permit Me to be one with you, that you might be one with Me for the REDEMPTION of your soul.
This thought I have risen to convey as the last speaker said, I repeat, I say, the time has truly come, criticism, accusation and the expression of ignoring shall be brought to an end, or else I will not be with you, for I will not any longer be in them.
Oh, it is privilege to observe the mystery and to see the downfall of Korah — how that spirit in a degree of unfoldment criticized the very Life in which it exercised. The reaction and reiteration of such criticism by reincarnation has been imposed upon you. When you are the partakers of the nature and characteristics of others, their disposition and characteristics you are reproducers of by harmonizing with such as may be exemplified from time to time.
Then I say, “It is good to be here! It is good to be here with GOD!” Truly might have one declared by composition, yea, as it came by inspiration:
“Where is the blessedness I knew
When first I saw the LORD?
Where is that soul so fresh in view,”
it said.
“Of Jesus and His Love?”
When you see yourself declining and deviating and deteriorating and again degenerating, you may know you are going down to perdition, a complete separation from your LORD and your SAVIOR, the REDEEMER of all humanity.
Then I say, it is well worth considering. Stop and consider it! It may look like foolishness, but harmonization with My Spirit and My Presence, yea, My Activities, may give you a ride — I mean personally. It may cause you to have the privilege to go some place personally as a physical personal enjoyment. These vibrations that I AM sending out in this environment from My own Tabernacle, they will contact you as they pass through the ether, if you are in perfect harmony with Me. These vibrations, if you are in harmony with Me, regardless to how the false pretenders and the critics and accusers, and what they may do; regardless to how they fall by trying to imitate the Spirit, the Holy Ghost of GOD; if you allow these, My Spiritual vibrations and emotions to have free access in you, they will permeate and penetrate and transcend, yea, they will transcend your whole system and drive out all aches and pains that are physically experienced in your physical body.
