Holy Communion Service Divine Riviera Hotel

>FATHER DIVINE

 

Shortly after the testimony of a sister from Washington, D.C., thanking FATHER for the blessing of dining at the Holy Communion Table with HIM personally, FATHER arose and gave this most beautiful lecture on how each and everyone, on this continent especially, could enjoy the abundance of the fullness of all good things, if only they were in that place in consciousness to receive the limitless blessings, absolutely gratis.

Therefore, all creation, come, open your hearts and enjoy the blessings that GOD, FATHER DIVINE, has in store for all.

FOR THY INFINITE LOVE AND MERCY TO HUMANITY, WE HUMBLY THANK THEE!

(The foregoing statements are those of the transcriber, and the following is FATHER'S Message.)

 

 

PEACE, EVERYONE:

I do not wish to bore you but I thought to just convey a thought of MY Mind and a seeming; desire as it may be termed, when the last speaker mentioned the appreciation she has for having the privilege to sit at this table.  When I rise from time to time and speak of having it the same all over this wide extended plane I AM speaking of this whole universe, but especially this continent, under the Constitution and its Amendments and the Declaration of Independence being controlled by the Spirit of MY Presence with or without a person and all having a-full and aplenty and to spare, even as I have here and wheresoever I AM.

In Sayville, Long Island as a sample and as an example for many years now, it has been twenty-odd years since I first moved out there and we supplied there all who came, without any thought of remuneration and without any fee or compensation, absolutely gratis ; and the work has grown apparently by leaps and bounds, for thousands and thousands began flocking out there to be healed.

Some came and observed healings there by faith until they created a shrine at that time.  Oh, it is wonderful! And they were healed and fed and clothed absolutely gratis, gratis from A to Z; and that was MY thought I reconsidered when the last speaker mentioned sitting at the Banquet Table and how she enjoyed it.

I considered oh, that all of this nation could come to that place in consciousness where they could receive these blessings and I could extend them absolutely gratis without any consideration of remuneration.  That is what I'AM talking about!

 

Not All Are in the Consciousness to Enjoy the Blessings

This is just a little reflection of what you have declared I AM.  GOD so loved the world that HE gave HIS only begotten Son and GOD is Love.  Now the only reason for not having everybody to enjoy just what we are enjoying is because they are not at the place in consciousness to enjoy the blessings and come in possession of their rightful inheritance; but oh, that they would come to this place in consciousness, and they will eventually — when and where I will be able to extend blessings to them without any thought of dishonesty, incompetence and untruth, with the thought of GOD is Love undiluted, incorruptible and undefiled.  Oh, how glorious it is to realize it, for as she mentioned it I thought how glorious it is and I quite often think of it when I AM at these different places.  Oh, that I could and they would but allow ME to do and be by every living creature as I AM by these and so would it be if they would allow ME.

The time will come when it will be, as you hear ME say, my followers have unlimited purchasing power.  Unlimited purchasing power I mean from a material point of view and when we live it and express it and put it forth into expression and trust the One in whom you should trust and praise HIM the same according to the original doxology song:

"Praise GOD from whom all blessings flow, Praise Him all creature here below:"

When you say it and mean it and do it sincerely GOD is no longer to you a supposition but a living reality and made real, tangible and practical and has become to be a living factor.  Oh how glorious it is!

When you can trust GOD, and GOD alone in consideration will have all dominion, then there will not be anything else to trust and you cannot doubt, thinking that anything could fail you or anyone could fail you.  When this shall have been established effectively, where you can trust GOD wholeheartedly presently and universally, G0D is a living reality.  Then if you can, if you lose a thousand dollars right out there on the street, be not dismayed and be not disturbed, GOD will take care of you, if it is right for you to have it.

 

Trust GOD

Therefore, trust GOD even through the many seeming difficulties of life, the seeming dangers of life; trust GOD in all conflicts and disappointments, disasters and failures.  Trust GOD, trust GOD with thieves and robbers; trust GOD as you do with the honest, the pure and the holy.  That is what I AM talking about!  Knowing that GOD will take care of the situation.  GOD is your protection; GOD will repay whatsoever is necessary and when this is established effectively all will do as I did when I was in MY home, at that time, the home that was called MINE; feeding hundreds of people absolutely gratis, trusting MY own unadulterated Spirit, wholeheartedly relying on the Fundamental; then you are trusting GOD for your body and the things that you observe visibly as well as your spirit as being termed your soul within you.

"If the Lord keep not the house the watch is in vain,"

Oh, how glorious it is to observe it!  Now live it and express it in all sincerity and I will be with you now, henceforth and forever.  Oh, how glorious it is to realize it.  You have something to praise GOD for, even to think of the future government, the future establishment of this government; I mean this national government under which we are living, for GOD shall reign and have all dominion from shore to, shore and from land to land and none shall hinder Him.

Just as I have it under MY Personal Jurisdiction, so shall it be over all this wide extended plane and you know it will be marvelous then, will it not.  And all will be with one accord and all will trust in the One and only true and living GOD.  There will be no more an infant of days, there will be no more limitation.  How glorious it will be just as it is!  But just to be extended and more accurately put into expression without a blemish, the glorious church of which we all have been thinking, a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle.  You feel good just to think about it,-do you not?  I need not say more; it is marvelous!  And when I sit in the beautiful Communion Halls, better known as banquet halls and dining rooms where I preside, I look over the vast audience from time to time and see an abstract expression, the spirit of love, of Peace, of unity, and tranquility demonstrated and I say, how marvelous it will be when I shall be extended all over this wide extended plane and the government under which we live will be controlled by the selfsame Spirit and mind of which you say I AM.

 

G0D Alone Shall Reign!

Now, I do not have to do it through this body especially, since GOD by nature is impersonal— so long as it is done by this mind and this spirit, it is immaterial to ME; GOD alone shall reign and nought shall hinder HIM.  When this is done there shall be no more breadlines, as I said; no more doles, no more soliciting, beging; nor stealing, but the Spirit of GOD will be in evidence among this people and will express their absolute independency and prove our citizenry accurately and effectively because of the independence of GOD among this nation and it will no longer be a question of nationality or racial supremacy, for the Spirit of GOD is the Supreme One, GOD HIMSELF, and those who live in HIS life, light and understanding according to HIS teaching, will express independence, developed and brought to fruition as persons that will express supremacy.  You cannot express it without the Spirit of the Supreme One, the Spirit of the Supreme One ruling in your heart and in your mind, in your body and in your affairs effectively, accurately and definitely; in itself it is the expression of supremacy.  Where GOD does not reign a person cannot express supremacy, but where GOD has full access, since GOD is the Supreme One there is supremacy expressed in that one where GOD has free access within. That is what it is ; so it is the privilege of every living creature to develop and bring into fruition the Spirit and the Nature of your Saviour, so that you might express the Spirit of the Supreme One; and expressing it accurately, perfectly, and definitely, you will be expressing supremacy.

There will be no more question of races, nationalities and others such as creeds and colors to express supremacy, but your supremacy comes forth into expression by your Lord and your Saviour the Supreme One in evidence in activity and in all expressions; there is where your supremacy comes forth and it is not necessarily a person, it is the Spirit of the Supreme One, and that same Spirit is expressive for each and everyone; but you must live it and express it and when this is done it will be your privilege to express the Supreme One; in other words, you will express perfectly and whatsoever you do in actions or in deeds will be perfection because it will be the expression of the perfect one.

That is the mystery. Take these thoughts to consideration and lo, I will be with you now, henceforth and forever, as long as you harmonize with the fundamentals, and realize this principle of which, and of Whom I AM.  I thank YOU.
