FATHER and MOTHER DIVINE
A beautiful song of praise and thanksgiving to their Holy, Immaculate Creator, sweet FATHER DIVINE, sung in deepest sincerity, raised the vibrations to sway the entire assembly in rhythmic unity. The joy and freedom which results from thanks and praise to HIM was felt and expressed by all, and after the song had been sung over and over again many times, FATHER rose to deliver the very brief Message contained in these pages on this great emancipation HE has brought to us.
Precious Redeemer, we thank THEE!
(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, and FATHER'S Message follows the little song recorded below.)
'FATHER, we thank THEE, FATHER, we thank THEE,
FATHER, we thank THEE for what YOU have done for us.
FATHER, we thank THEE, FATHER, we thank THEE,
FATHER, we thank THEE for what YOU have done for us.'
FATHER speaks as follows:
PEACE EVERYONE! Good Health, Good Will and a Good Appetite, with Life, Liberty and the reality of Happiness, for you are happy if you really thank ME.
I thought how marvelous it is when you can thank GOD with the spirit of sincerity. When you say it from the depths of your soul, it will free you from every tie that binds, and from every adverse and undesirable condition it will give you your real emancipation.
Now, you can take it from ME, if you wish to. It really works! If you thank GOD from the very depths of your soul, if you are bound in prison, the prison bars will let you go. Real thanks from he soul -- in other words, from the depths of your heart -- will free you from every barred and shut door, will free you from everything that binds and give you your real emancipation from angle that is expressible.
Oh, it is a privilege to realize, that was the mystery of Paul and Silas, of Peter and John, the same mystery of the prophets of old. When they gave praise to GOD and thanks with the spirit of sincerity, from the depths of their souls, they were lifted and emancipated from every undesirable condition, whatsoever the undesirable condition may have been.
So I was just giving you a little tip. You can speak volitionally, you can move volitionally, you can act and express from all the divers angles of expression according to the Spirit of My Actual Presence, by giving thanks and praise continually. If you get stubborn mentally and spiritually, you will get rusty - - like a machine when it gets rusty because it has not been run in quite a while. It is stiff! But if you praise GOD, you will get all right!
Now I say, take it from ME, praise GOD and everything will be all right; that is, if you praise GOD with your whole heart, with your whole soul and with your whole mind and strength. That will be sufficient. You need not worry about the situation. You need not worry about the prospective consequences, for the Spirit of My Presence will be the actuated words of expression in all of the consequences in the future as well as the past; for GOD is the same today, yesterday and forever, and if you let GOD be a reality to you, GOD will be the same and will be your real emancipation.
From every undesirable condition you will be lifted and will have Joy and Peace and Pleasure beyond your reason to ask. How good it is to dwell together in Unity! Those of My true, faithful and devout followers are getting a foretaste of this Glory. The Ointment that was poured upon One's head, it was sweet!
This is not a supposition. In your suppositions through your superstitions you have felt the foretaste of it, but you could not understand it; but you can understand it better since I have brought it into outer expression and into materialization. Through reincarnation you are the personification of that of which you have been desiring. Now you no longer merely surmise and even merely personify, but in consciousness you realize that which you have personified. It is a living reality for you and for others. All they must needs do is to dial in on it, be susceptive and receptive to receive it -- the Spirit of My Presence will freely give it and you will be contagionized with it! I thank you.
