Wake Up And Step Off The Path.

Some speculate that the consciousness of mankind became fractured a long time ago and we then diverged down a path that most civilisations in the universe manage to avoid during their evolution. It resulted in a massive expansion of our intellects at the expense of the utter neglect of our souls. The soul was designed to be the spiritual powerhouse of our being. These two centres of consciousness were always supposed to be in balance, along with that of our spirit body.

This failure to find a balance between the different faculties  of our being – the material and spirit minds, and the soul – has directly resulted in the grotesque world that we’ve created. One in which unimaginable suffering takes place daily. A world created by God but remade in our image through misuse of our free will over millennia.

History shows that until recently, a large part of the population believed in God. Those beliefs are now widely viewed as being the result of superstition and ignorance. In fact, because people lived simple lives in the olden days, there were opportunities in quiet moments for their souls to influence their thoughts and gently remind them of the unseen spirit world that lies beyond this material existence. The soul will always try to prompt us to recognise its existence so that it can reclaim its rightful place in our lives.

Now, even the belief in God has largely gone. Our lives aren’t quiet anymore. Humanity has been successful in normalising this weird state of affairs to the point that it’s hard to imagine the world being any different from what it is. But no one escapes the harsh realities of what we’ve created. Even the rich fill their lives with distractions to cover up the underlying pain, emptiness and sense of futility they feel.

There’s still great beauty in the world and many kind-hearted people. But the power of darkness is overshadowing everything. For far too many, reality has become a nightmare. It’s time for all of us to wake up and step off the path. Balance can be achieved by praying for God’s divine love to fill our souls. This progressively brings us greater levels of divine consciousness (the true meaning of Christ Consciousness). This consciousness will give us all we need to successfully redress the problems that humanity has created for itself. I’ve said elsewhere that humanity faces a spiritual crisis, not an intellectual one. We’re very clever but not very wise. The world will change as we change. The highest path is that of divine love.

Rocket Fuel For The Soul.

Recently, I made reference to the fact that throughout history, a small number of resolute individuals were able to find their way to a wonderful spiritual awakening through their single-minded quest to experience the living presence of God in their lives. There’s two very interesting observations to be made about what happened to these highly fortunate people.

First, there was no light bulb moment that sparked the search or the outcome. Their search was driven not by mere intellectual curiosity but by a primal desire to know God and thereby themselves. Second, their reward was indeed a great boon to their lives, but they didn’t suddenly become possessed of great minds or the sort of intellectual wisdom that others would admire. The true facts of the matter are much more interesting.

The great change that they experienced happened at a much deeper level than the mind. Their souls were set on fire in a way that could best be described as a pentecostal awakening similar to what the disciples of Jesus experienced following his death. The rocket fuel that fed their souls was God’s divine love given in response to their earnest supplications to know God. This love provided them with the start of a new divine consciousness that was indeed a light bulb moment, but not for the mind – rather, it affected their souls. I’ve spoken elsewhere about what these soul changes involve and how the soul eventually transcends the material mind. While our souls have the potential to change rapidly with the inflowing of this love, our material minds are the last part of us to change and capitulate to God’s will.

If you find my account somewhat disappointing then it indicates that you are on the path of natural love whereby you will eventually perfect your nature, develop your intellect extensively and become exceedingly happy in the future as an inhabitant of the highest spirit heavens.

And yet, merely becoming a perfected man or woman isn’t what God wants for us. In a way, these beings know and acknowledge God, but they don’t experience the depth and breadth of God’s love and thereby become ‘as one’ with our creator. They exemplify the saying, ‘No river can rise higher than its source’. By contrast, those who infill their souls with divine love end up as inhabitants of the celestial kingdom that lies above all other spirit realms. There’s no limit to their journey walking hand in hand with God.

None can understand what this means without experiencing it. And therein lies the problem. In one sense, what we don’t know and can’t envisage might as well not exist. A subset of humanity seems to be born with an inner desire to find this ‘unknowable’ state, or in some cases, this desire is triggered at a later stage. We’re told that many won’t ever seek this awakening. God respects our free will and therefore the great day will inevitably come when the predicted biblical separation of the sheep and the goats will occur. This is the second death. The opportunity for the rebirth of our souls in God’s love will pass. Those who live in the celestial kingdom will progress in God’s love for all eternity. Those who inhabit the spirit heavens will continue to enjoy considerable happiness but will realise too late the opportunity they’ve squandered.

This is a difficult message for me to deliver and I caution against any rush to judgement. I was also deeply troubled by the implications. As always, the best course is to pray for guidance and to be shown the truth. If you’ve not already done so, ask to experience divine love, after which your soul will start to inform your mind more clearly on all these issues.

The Truth Is Simple.

When we pray for the divine essence of God’s own great soul to come into our souls, we take a step closer to God in nature. This is the highest good we can bring about for ourselves and, through the divine light that we shine, all of creation.

Divine love bestows on us a purity like unto God’s own purity in quality. Never in all eternity can it be tarnished or taken away from us. As it builds in quantity inside us, it brings about a complete regeneration of our being. This leads to the greatest spiritual awakening we can ever have. The only important difference between us and the greatest spiritual beings that have ever existed is simply the quantity of this love that we possess. From this love, all else that we could ever wish for follows.

These simple spiritual truths are all we will ever need to make progress. The human mind delights in intellectualising the truth and making it more complex than it really is. Possessing some esoteric knowledge as they see it, is a way for would-be gurus, who may or may not have undergone some degree of spiritual awakening, to have power over those who feel lost and who may turn to them for help. It’s human nature to want to bask in the adulation of others. However, great spiritual beings are always extremely humble because they know the power in them is God’s power that has been given to them freely. There’s nothing we could do in our own right to warrant such a gift being given to us – it is solely the result of God’s love for us that has brought about its availability. Who has the right to boast about their spiritual power when all they did to get it in the first place was ask for it in the prescribed manner?

The availability of divine love is the true message that Jesus came to reveal to mankind. A faint thread of this astonishing truth is still contained in the bible but the Padgett Messages, written over a century ago, were given to the world to make the truth crystal clear to all who seek spiritual meaning in their lives.

Reality Is Not What You Think.

You may have heard about the three blind men who each felt different parts of an elephant’s body and came to wildly differing views as to what an elephant is. Our human reality is a bit like that – what each of us experiences is unique, although we’re all looking out at the same world. The problem is that this default reality, although it has a certain validity, is just that – a baseline that in no way represents the pinnacle of what God wants us to experience.

Even within our current mindful reality, on its very edges, there is much that defies and confounds our rigid science-based views of the world. Many a scientist has had an unsettling supernatural experience and, unwilling to expand their worldview for fear of where that may lead, dismisses the episode as a hallucination.

Most of us are content with whatever science tells us, believing it must be right. I myself had an extensive education in science and engineering but could never accept that it represented anything other than a small portion of reality. It seemed to me that science knew quite a lot about very little. The idea that all reality can be boiled down to a set of scientific equations is folly. What a tragedy that so many have been duped out of a belief in God by those atheists who may well have great intellects and worldly knowledge but know nothing beyond what can be measured with scientific instruments and found in books. We’ve unwittingly let them become the new high priests of the modern world. I don’t mind that some of them may aspire to stand proudly at their lecterns basking in our adulation, as they imagine it, so long as they remain respectful towards those of us who choose other worldviews to them. In truth, most of us are too busy with fun things to care about boring science – no, the power we give away to others in this case is done unconsciously, probably because collectively we’ve always put great scientists on a special pedestal above all others.

Unfortunately, even if we somehow manage to avoid being brainwashed in terms of our beliefs, we’re likely to dupe ourselves in relation to reality simply due to the power of our own minds. Escaping the reality we experience is very hard and most see no reason to do so. But God’s creation is multi-dimensional and has many layers of reality that can not be perceived unless our souls are developed by an external factor. The magic ingredient is God’s love. Everything that exists is made from God’s condensed love, and it’s therefore logical that our soul perceptions need to be fueled by the highest form of this love – divine love – in order to interact with higher realities. These truths aren’t something I’ve invented – this is what is being channelled from those beings who inhabit the highest realms of the spirit world. And we can verify from personal experience that this love does indeed expand our perceptions and start to open up new realities.

The Padgett Messages, published in the middle of the last century, lays the foundation of what I’ve described. Modern mediums have added to our knowledge since then. For some, it may be too big a leap to accept. That’s fine. In the fullness of time, you never know when something you’ve filed away in your memory may suddenly become relevant.

To discover God and God’s reality doesn’t require great intellectual understanding, but it does require perseverance and a modicum of faith. Throughout history, there have been individuals, often misfits in society, who wanted to know God above all else. Determination allowed them to eventually bridge the gulf and automatically receive God’s divine love, which then opened up a new world for them, even though they probably had no clear intellectual road map or understanding of the path they were travelling. They succeeded because, even without detailed knowledge, they activated various of God’s laws that ensure those who seek are those that find.

Today, more of the truth is available to us. Much help is offered by our divine guides. The celestial realms are the least inhabited part of the spirit world but the most desirable. Making a start towards that destination while on earth is the most beneficial and beautiful thing we can do with our lives.

Judging Others Is Counterproductive.

As spiritual practitioners, we cannot aspire to love the whole world and at the same time be judgemental. Judgement creates division, an ‘us and them’ of those we approve of and those we don’t. By befriending even those who are widely reviled in society, we may bring a blessing into their lives that helps them to progress towards the light.

We who know of God’s divine love are deeply blessed by this love and the presence of God’s angels in our lives. We need to have compassion for those who are filled with negativity and who may have a long path of suffering in front of them before they start turning towards the light. Truly, it has been said that ‘they know not what they do’ because everyone wants happiness and none would choose a path leading to intense suffering if they were aware in advance of the consequences of their choices.

When we indulge in negativity, we attract dark spirits to us who delight in reinforcing those inclinations. So even after we start walking the divine path, we must be vigilant and resist all temptation to express ourselves in negative ways, otherwise our own light will be dimmed and we will delay our own spiritual awakening. While God is giving us the transformative power of divine love, our role is to avoid giving our power to negativity in any form.

Divine Love Is The Great Destroyer Of Sin.

Our souls are the only part of us made in God’s image. However, we have the potential to be infilled with God’s own divine soul substance and thereby become ‘as one’ with God. This love causes a great spiritual awakening in us that cannot be achieved in any other way. It brings new divine soul perceptions and abilities, along with the sure knowledge of being immortal. Becoming divine does not cause us to lose our individuality or personality, as some may fear.

When we pray earnestly for this love, God’s Holy Spirit brings it into our souls. In this process, all the encrustations around our soul caused by sinful thoughts and actions are steadily removed. Eventually, we come into full harmony with our Creator.

The consequences of the law of compensation, whereby we suffer in proportion to our wrongdoings, are progressively nullified by the divine love we accumulate in our souls. Once the darkness around our souls has been eliminated then there is nothing for the law of compensation to act on and we become fully relieved of the penalties of our past sins. This is a remarkable blessing from God whereby the suffering normally associated with transgressing God’s laws is circumvented by the activation of a higher divine law.

Divine love is, therefore, truly the fulfilling of the law and the great destroyer of sin and error from our being. It allows us to avoid or shorten the potentially long period of soul expiation that spirits face when they enter the spirit world and their conscience confronts them with the memories of their past negativity.

Live Your Best Life In God’s Love.

As the world becomes an ever more dark and chaotic place to live, many are looking beyond science, philosophy and other mindful disciplines in a search for true meaning in their lives.

The truth is simple. Love is the foundation of all happiness. An absence of love causes suffering. There are different types of love, such as the natural love we are born with and soulmate love. But the highest of all is the love that forms the essence of God’s own great soul – divine love. Our souls can be progressively transformed to be of this same substance through sincere prayer. This love causes us to develop divine soul perceptions and consciousness that we cannot gain in any other way. Eventually, this new soul consciousness comes to dominate our awareness. The divine journey brings unimaginable joy, meaning and truth to our lives. By comparison, the daily diet of mundane thoughts and distractions generated by our material minds doesn’t bring the lasting happiness we’re looking for. Yes, we have to function in the material world and deal with everyday affairs but the highest good for ourselves, those we love and the whole world comes from the time we spend with God, receiving divine love and doing God’s will.

Those who study the bible will see that the love brought by the Holy Spirit is different in nature to the natural love we are all familiar with. The Padgett Messages were dictated by the highest beings in the spirit world and describe in great detail what divine love is, what it means for our future happiness, and the consequences for those who instead choose to progress on the alternative path of natural love.

If you truly open up to God in prayer, you will feel the sensation of divine love coming into your soul. Few turn back once they start receiving this great gift. Are you ready to accept the offer to live your best life in God’s love?

It’s Time To Wear The Mantle Of Divinity.

As someone who has never belonged to any religious organisation, I was amazed when I discovered the following personally verifiable facts: Jesus came to this world to announce that God had made available to everyone the very special gift of divine love. That this love is fundamentally different from the love we are born with. That it can progressively become part of our innermost being simply by sincerely asking for it, causing God’s Holy Spirit to deliver it into our soul. That it will eventually cause us to be totally free of sin and error whereby we become fit to inhabit the highest realms of the afterlife that cannot be reached any other way.

This one truth is simple and powerful. We are told that developing one’s soul in divine love is the normal way of life on countless other planets. It unlocks endless new perceptions and abilities as we walk along the divine path. It dissolves all of the negative human conditioning that we have accumulated since birth.

Applying this one truth diligently in our lives will bring everything of a spiritual nature we could possibly desire. Our minds will undoubtedly try to make the truth more complex. In many respects, our mind is not our friend. We’ve been indoctrinated since birth in ways that are not in harmony with God. Now is the time to listen to our soul’s true desires and walk the highest path hand in hand with God. In donning the mantle of divinity, our soul becomes transformed into the same substance as God’s own great soul, bringing us guaranteed immortality.

Pray to God with the utmost sincerity and you will immediately feel this love entering your being. Only we ourselves can prevent it from becoming part of us. The world needs as many of us as possible to adopt the divine if we are to rebuild the world to be in harmony with God’s true desires for us.

Time To Get Over Ourselves?

There’s a rather unkind expression that gets used about people who take themselves too seriously, namely, ‘Get over yourself’. It may also be appropriate to say it to ourselves in a kindly manner when we need to take more responsibility for our circumstances, to stop being a victim and put aside the melodrama of life.

When we receive divine love into our souls, then we start to heal inside and we develop new gifts that can help us cope and thrive in our life on earth. This is a wonderful journey that is full of joy and deep meaning. But if we hold on to outdated views of who we are then we may fail to recognise any new strengths and abilities we acquire. So we should proactively seek to grow into the new version of us that is unfolding every day with every prayer. As an example, we should seek our own guidance from God and God’s angels instead of automatically relying on others on earth who we look up to. This recognises that everyone here is fallible and that the highest guidance needs to reflect our personal circumstances.

Spiritual maturity comes so slowly that we can doubt whether we’ve really changed. Consequently, we indulge our old bad habits because we allow them to feel more real than who we’ve become deep down. There is an alternative to being hoodwinked by our own minds. Divine love, blessings from God and the help of divine beings who we attract to us, along with our own commitment and vigilance, allow us to truly get over ourselves and progress steadily along the path towards the celestial kingdom.

Feeling Empty Inside Is A Hidden Blessing.

One of the many reasons people turn to God is because they feel empty inside. There is a hidden blessing in this because it means a space has already been created that God can fill with love. Those who lead a very full, satisfying material existence often struggle to make room for God in their lives, even though deep down a hole exists inside them also.

The impulse to turn to God comes from our soul, deep inside us. The yearnings of the soul often go unrecognised and unanswered. A lack of love and meaning in our lives is the true underlying cause of these feelings. Deep down we have a primal desire to feel enveloped in God’s love.

Divine love comes into our souls when we pray to God sincerely for it to become part of our being. As our soul fills with love, it utterly transforms us. It reveals within us a new, deeper sense of self that we never knew existed. This is the true foundation of happiness.

Although we may feel an emptiness, since love doesn’t actually take up any space inside us then we can continue to pray for divine love for all eternity, all the while experiencing an ever closer relationship with God.

Resistance to God is built into our minds and the world around us. Finding God is not easy. Those who find their way during the brief period of our earth lives are truly blessed.

Moving Past The Past.

All of us carry psychological baggage from our pasts. What we’ve experienced often distorts our judgement and thoughts in ways that are unhealthy and don’t lead to happiness. Yet, moving past our pasts can be very difficult. The spiritual damage we do to ourselves through negative thinking, whether self-directed or otherwise, is not necessarily something we are aware of or can readily assess. There are a number of examples described in the Padgett Messages of those who thought they had led tolerably good lives on earth, only to find they wake up in considerable darkness when they pass over to the spirit world.

If we’re spiritually inclined, we may feel we’re morally ‘better’ than most others we know and therefore don’t have to worry unduly about our day-to-day behaviour and what conditions may await us after death. It’s easy to avoid looking at who we’ve become. It takes great courage to be truthful with ourselves and fight against our lack of self-awareness.

To combat any complacency and ensure our true happiness, we should consider honestly how God wants us to be. Since God is all loving, then we should try to follow this example literally and become all loving in our attitudes. Praying sincerely for divine love to fill our souls is the single most important thing we can do to progress towards God. Over time, this love will purify and heal us and eradicate much that blights our beings. The second most important thing we can do is to police our minds and avoid habitually indulging in harmful thoughts. God won’t change our thoughts – that’s our responsibility. Rather than reacting instinctively to situations and events as they transpire, it helps to consider for a moment how a great spiritual figure would react in our place. Being angry and wanting instant karma for those who act in ways that we disapprove of, for example, isn’t God’s way. We need to have faith that all of God’s laws are perfect. This makes it easier to detach ourselves from events in our own lives and the wider world. It doesn’t mean we don’t care what happens, just that we acknowledge that reacting instinctively and emotionally may be counterproductive.

Being loving at all times is hard. However, expressing negativity harms us as individuals and fans the negative waves of energy in the world that true spiritual seekers want to neutralise.

God’s Narrative Is What Counts.

We’ve all spent a lifetime hearing about all kinds of  badly behaved prominent people in society. Their litany of dismal headlines and bad examples has provided the backdrop to our lives, an ungodly narrative that, sadly, reflects some darker aspects of human behaviour.

Meanwhile, science has persuaded many to disregard God as mere superstition. Scandals in religious organisations haven’t exactly helped endear people to religion.

So wherever we look around us for inspiration, meaning and role models, we’re often disappointed.

For me, the only narrative that really counts is the faint whisper in my soul, all too easily ignored, that comes from God. God wants to co-create the narrative to our lives with us. A journey through life that is in harmony with our Creator and brings us great joy.

Fortunately, there’s a growing number of lightworkers in the world who want a better, more spiritual world based on love and peace. Their values are so different from the norm that they largely go unrecognised by wider society. What they believe in, which is a better world, isn’t even considered newsworthy.

The highest path to God is to pray to be filled with divine love, which will eventually remake us as divine souls that experience Christ Consciousness. Once we establish ourselves on this path, it’s unlikely we’ll ever turn back. Divine love and our relationship with our Creator then become the living narrative to our existence that we can joyfully engage in forever.
