The Mount of the House of the Lord
In the midst of a Demonstration FATHER came forward to the Speaker's Desk to say:
"All white handkerchiefs representing the Spirit of Peace.. please, Do not use colored handkerchiefs. White handkerchiefs represent the Spirit of Peace the Spirit of our Movement Sing on. (FATHER DIVINE refers to waving handkerchiefs during the singing of certain songs.) - (Spoken Word - 1-14-36 A.D.F.D. p. 23)
(Given: at 126TH Street, N.Y.C., 7-26-38 A.D.F.D., 1:00 A.M.)
PEACE., EVERYONE: ("Peace., FATHER DEAR!" responded the Angels and others.)
Millions and millions of Blessings! Every day they are increasing automatically, but weekly I am multiplying them mathematically!
I need not say more than what I have said; as I have long since declared, I re-declare the same:
"I will preach CHRIST in words, but more so in deeds and in actions, and I will put MY Spirit in them, and cause them to walk in MY Statutes."
Can you not see the millions by an "eye of faith" and with your physical eye, thousands and thousands daily walking in MY Statutes, according to MY Teaching, moving volitionally and yet walking in MY Statutes, for they are governed by MY Spirit and by MY MIND intuitively?
".. Can you not see the thousands and thousands of Blessings I have? Every physical eye in this building and every ear under the Sound of MY Voice, you are all Blessings to ME.
I do not tell you to wave your handkerchiefs, neither your napkins; nevertheless, if you waved two, three or four, you could not wave too many, because those of you who are in these different audiences wheresoever I AM, you are not to be compared with the millions that would be with ME, if they could, even as you can; therefore, if you could wave a handkerchief for every strand of hair on your head, each of you, still you would not wave more than those who are witnesses for ME.. oven though it is not possible for them in person to be here. I thank you, -

'And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from this place where thou art northward and southward, and eastward and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever. And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.,'

'And the angel of the LORD called unto Abraham out of heaven the second tine, And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; ...
