Seated at the Table: Miss Great Love,
MOTHER DIVINE, FATHER DIVINE, Miss Dorothy Darling
In this perfect little Message imparted by FATHER to one and all, HE depicts the sweetness and the beauty of Holiness, that all might be caught up in the Radiance of His Love, in this realm where there is Joy unspeakable and full of glory, where GOD alone is ruling and reigning in His Kingdom, the throne of your mind where HE has all of your mind and attention, love and devotion, ideas and opinions all concentrated on HIM. If all mankind would but seek His Counsel and adhere to it, they too would be sheltered from the storm of adversities in the Radiance of His Love. So all mankind, you who desire the Love and the Protection of the Almighty GOD, FATHER DIVINE, the Fountain lies open, and whosoever will may come and drink of this Precious Elixir of Life and thirst no more, for FATHER is that Fountain, as said the Bible, that lies open in the house of David for sin and all uncleanliness.
Thank YOU, FATHER Dear, for Your Words of Spirit and Life!
(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, and the following is FATHER'S Message preceded by the composition.)
"In Thy Love, in Thy Love, Father, keep us ever,
Filled with joy, health, peace and love directly from heaven!"
PEACE EVERYBODY! How good it is to dwell together in Unity, in the Unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose where I can keep you together in My Love forever! In the Unity of Spirit, of Mind, of Aim and of Purpose through self-denial and consecration, through living evangelically whole-heartedly and through harmonization from every angle expressible, I can keep you in My Love forever.
The original composition said by the inspiration of one who was conscientiously sincere and convicted,
"In Thy Cross, in Thy Cross, Jesus, keep me ever!"
But oh, how glorious it is to realize, from that state of consciousness you have been resurrected and you realize you are kept in My Love forever! That Love of GOD that charms your fears! The Love of GOD that has a hiding place for you! The Love of GOD in which you have found Love and Mercy flowing free forever! Such a mighty Holy Love!
If you sing it and believe it and mean it, your prayers are heard and answered speedily, for the song as a composition is a prayer in disguise; that is, if you sing it sincerely from the depths of your heart,
"In Thy Love, in Thy Love, Father, keep us ever!"
You realize you can be kept now, henceforth and forever so long as you love others according to the Gospel; so long as you live soberly, righteously and Godly and abide in My Spirit through harmonization, through meekness and obedience by being submissive, meek and sweet. GOD in your heart and on your mind will take a seat, for GOD has truly made your heart His Home and your mind His Throne if you will allow GOD, your great Creator, to be enthroned within you.
Through the condescension of GOD, in Love and Mercy HE came, descending to the throne of the minds of the children of men; those who will allow HIM to have free access within, there is where CHRIST has truly been enthroned. When this is made true in your experience, you can sing with the advanced revised version of that melody:
"In Thy Love, in Thy Love, my Father keeps me forever!"
If you stay in the Love of GOD, everything in GOD to you is beautiful, and the Beauty of Holiness is no longer a mere expression, nor is it merely an illustration, but it is the recognition and the realization of the true and the faithful who have this Love in reality established within them.
"In Thy Love, in Thy Love, Father, keep me ever!
In Thy Love, in Thy Love, Love and Mercy found me,
There the bright and morning star sheds its beams around me!"
Oh, how glorious it is to realize, where it was a cross, now it is a Crown! Where it was a thorn, now it is a Gem, the Precious Gems of Life so freely established in this Life, and I heard you sing and I heard you say,
"All hail the Power of Father's Name, let angels prostrate fall;
Bring forth the Royal Diadem and crown Him Lord of all!"
No longer with thorns, but Gems of precious mental and spiritual stones as Royal Diadems for the Crown of Him who liveth forever and forever; therefore, you should rejoice and be glad, for the Day of the LORD has truly come!
Live in this recognition! Continue to feel like singing and praising GOD'S Holy Name, and with such a conscious recognition and realization, by giving praise and thanksgiving, every barred and shut door is open. They are all open for the true and the faithful, for praise and thanksgiving will open the barred and shut doors as it did for Paul and Silas when they were in prison.
You have heard an often-rehearsed statement in the world of religion,
"Prayer is the Key of Heaven, but Faith unlocks the door!"
It might have been well said, if you could realize the prayer as praise that did unlock the door by the sincerity; by the heart of sincereness and by the conscientious and contrite heart that has sung and prayed a prayer in a song in one.
Whatsoever you have sung, or whatsoever you sing, if it is a request, let it be from the sincerity of your heart and when it is sung in all sincerity, your prayers are heard and answered speedily, for you are disguised in praying when you sing. They do not know you are actually praying, therefore they will not try to stop your prayer at times. Can you not see the mystery? But as it is commonly considered, there is an "other fellow!" The "other fellow" will try to stop you when he knows you are praying. Can you not see the Mystery?
For this cause, CHRIST said,
"Enter into your closet that is secret and pray to the Lord in secret, and He that seeth in secret shall reward you openly!"
I came to Teach this present generation the way to pray and how to get answers to prayers that are prayed according to the Gospel, for the average person does not pray according to the Gospel, but he usually prays erroneously by failing to pray as Jesus told him to pray. But this looks like someone has prayed! Prayers are heard and answered, although you did not hear them, for he that prays in secret, prays to GOD and not to men.
But when you get in this audience, or in this Church and shout to the top of your voice to be heard and known to be praying, you may be sincere in a way of speaking, but your reward will not come so vividly and so bountifully openly. But because you prayed to the LORD in secret according to the Gospel, your prayers are heard and answered speedily; therefore, you can sing a prayer, you can think a prayer and you can talk a prayer and yet not allow others to know what you are thinking and what you are saying, but still in the song, or in your talk, or in your rehearsals you may be praying. It is a wonderful thing!
Just look over this vast audience. You are blessed to be in the radiance of My Love! Aren't you glad! The very Radiance of My Love may not be seen with the physical mortal eye, but as true as these lights shine radiantly, even so Radiant is My Love. Wheresoever I AM present and whensoever I AM Personally present, the Radiance of My Love is beautiful! You see, I reflect it in the countenances of the faces of these that sit and stand whose hearts and minds are open to ME. You can see the Radiance of My Love reflecting in the countenances of the children of men, therefore, their countenances change when they are where I AM. Aren't you glad! In the Radiance of My Love, I can cause your faces to shine, because you are reflecting that thought from where your are thinking, and from that on which you are concentrating. Aren't you glad!
When Stephen was stoned to death, the Radiance of the Love of GOD on Whom he was concentrating, reflected all the way from some place that was called Heaven and his face shone in the Radiance of My Love. Although he was stoned, the radiance of My Love shone in him and on him because he was concentrating on HE Who liveth forever! If you want to get beautiful, get in the Radiance of My Love! Aren't you glad!
Truly might have one said,
"The Lord taketh pleasure in His people. He beautifies the Meek with Salvation."
Therefore, in the radiance of My Love, through concentration, you reproduce the
Radiance of the Glory of GOD as was seen on the Mount of Transfiguration, in
part; and if your hearts and minds are open effectively enough, you may reproduce
the identical Radiance of My Love in all of its fullness as was seen on the Mount
of Transfiguration when Moses and Elijah talked with GOD. Aren't you glad! It
is Quickening! It is Awakening -- the Radiance of My Love! Aren't you glad!
By concentration through harmonization you reproduce by reproduction that on which you are concentrating and you become to be a partaker of the Nature and the Characteristics of that on which you concentrate. It is beautiful, isn't it, in the Radiance of My Love?
If you just think vividly, sincerely and conscientiously in one direction harmoniously, the reaction of your harmonious concentrated thought will bring a harmonious desirable result that will be a foretaste of My Infinite Love. You will be able to say with the composer,
'Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine, oh, what a foretaste of Glory Divine!'
You will find your are
'an heir of salvation,'
you are
'purchased of God,'
you are
'born of His Spirit and washed in His Life,'
as being termed the blood, for you are made new! You are made whole! I thank
you!
