THE WILL OF GOD IN CREATION

Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord’, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

We Learn His Will by Experiencing Creation

The primary reason for our journey through the Worlds of Matter is to Learn, consciously Adjust to and then Further the Will of God. This is the beginning and end of all our spiritual goals. The underlying theme of the word of the Envoys of God is that we must obey the Will of the Father, i.e., live in accordance with the Laws that embody the Will of the Creator!

The whole purpose of our lives is to learn to live in the Will of our God. The abilities the human spirit is heir to, the gift of intuition, free will and a sense of beauty and our perpetual urge to search for Truth, all converge as intended helps for achieving this primary purpose. It is the inability to have the Will of God as our central focus that has resulted in so much disharmony in our individual and collective paths as human beings. 

The potential to recognise the Will of our God in Creation gives us our identity and sustainable personality. If in our path of development in the World of Matter, we fail to learn to adjust to the Will of the Creator, the wrongly acquired personality is ultimately stripped off the spirit and dies in the judgement. If the human spirit fails in its goal of seeking God, which is the only path to eternal life, it goes through this process of disintegration of its acquired personality and individuality, during which process it is again purified and returned to its original state as a spirit seed germ, without any consciousness that it had ever existed.

How do we learn the Will of God?

The Will of God is encoded in and is the basis of the Laws that govern Creation. We can therefore only recognise it by experiencing Creation with an alert spirit. It cannot be appreciated or learnt by studying, by reading or even by lectures and teachings from those that claim to know better. These are alien forms that can never reach the spiritual inner core. Even the Messages from God won’t help if you merely study them. No matter how erudite you become you cannot attain the maturity of the bringer and will never understand what he gives until you experience them, until you live them. And experiences come through our activities – thoughts, words and deeds.

To be of benefit, all our activities must be from a free choice; on the basis that we wish to do them, not because we are compelled to. Experiencing allows us to discern the path of Truth that leads to the luminous heights, for it is only the Truth, the knowledge of the Will of God in Creation that can set us free. This knowledge becomes available and accessible to each human spirit at a personal level, simply from interacting with Creation around us. In addition, we have been granted much support for this in the divine messages.

Experiencing Creation

The Will of God surrounds us, is all around us in the Creation in which we live, and indeed is within our very essence which also came into existence from the same Will. Spiritual maturity can only be achieved when our activities are performed within the opportunities that life provides with daily experiences. We must not waste our lives waiting for the great opportunity, the great dream where we may excel and perhaps profoundly affect the world! On the contrary, spiritual activity great as it is only lies in simplicity.

Simply being, joyfully taking everyday, every moment and every experience as they come, and allowing these to permeate our intuitive perception is the path to God. He who can experience joy and sorrow, the anguish of loss and fear and the happiness of the protective mantle of the Love of God in the ordinance of nature with childlike trust and faith, lives aright. In just being ourselves, even when considered blundering idiots by others, we achieve more than when we try to teach others or wish to be considered good or holy. 

Spiritual activities must arise from our free volition as the Will of God demands. Any activity performed out of compulsion or calculated need, out of greed or to please another or a sect already receives its reward on earth. This may be in the form of financial reward or social recognition or acclaim, perhaps in mortal fame, eponymous acknowledgement or appointments to seats of power.   

The main purpose of our existence, as already stated, is to learn through our experiences to recognise and exist consciously in the Will of our Creator. This is the goal that must drive all our activities, thoughts and words. All the ups and downs of our existence are but mileposts on this path of seeking His Will. To achieve this goal, we must practice both perseverance and endurance for circumstances around us and indeed the world will oppose us. ‘Perseverance not rigidity leads to the goal^’. We must become living and flexible in our relationship with people but must never compromise the Truth. 

For most of us however a major obstacle to experiencing and thus to our path remains our tenacious attachment to everyday trivialities. We must overcome these weeds of indolence by always keeping our thoughts and our volition focused on pure goals. It is very easy to allow the trivialities of daily living to intrude and even distract us from spiritual goals. The worries about our job, financial status, ambitions for power and for social relevance and even our wishes for our children, the taste for modern luxuries may all easily interfere with our spiritual goals. We need perpetual vigilance and we must use all the help that the grace of God has provided.

Persevering in our volition to serve the Creator and to live in the consciousness of His ever-present Love and Power is the only path that allows us to attain sustained growth and maturity. Each step may be dogged with obstacles and difficulties, but these in themselves if properly experienced also become blessings on our path. Obstacles and difficulties either help us to mature in the process of their experiencing or they are returning effects of previous wrong volition, which we are thus permitted to redeem.

Many of us are led astray because they perceive more frustrations in their circumstances than there actually is. They do not understand that the friction of daily living is an essential, indeed a prime reason for our sojourn here on earth. It is in the crucible of the friction of existence in matter that we must mature into viable spirits worthy of a place in Creation. It is this that keeps us alert and focused and that open us to the conscious experiencing of the presence of the Creator. In this understanding therefore we should rejoice and glorify God in all experiences.

The reality of Omnipresence and our conscious adjustment to it is an important source of strength for our path in the whole vast Creation, not just for the earth. All who open themselves to this consciousness can feel the joy and bliss of His nearness just as those who deny Him feel the weight of His absence, for in spite of all forms of denial and rationalisation, there is nowhere in the entire Creation where one can hide from the presence of the Creator. They may as the saying goes run to the mountains, to the depth of the seas or even to outer space to hide from the presence but there is no escaping His presence for He Created All and His Will is immanent in All.

We must never forget that according to prophecies of the end time, the enemy to our spiritual progress does not necessarily appear in person. Nor will he be recognised as such, but will operate through a medium to which it has given its power of deception, conceit, contrariness to the Will of the Creator and serpentine sagacity. It was also even mentioned that this second beast will also transfer its authority to another (see rev 13) and so expecting to easily recognise this system of opposition to the Light as a single force to fight, in which all evil is concentrated will be extremely difficult even for the elect.

However, the solution as also promised, rests in wisdom and wisdom begins and ends with recognising and serving God. The single test, the touchstone to the happening lies in the answer to one question: – Does this system, this thought and/or this activity acknowledge unequivocally, uncompromisingly and unquestioningly the presence and Power of the One and Only God, to whom all service and glory are referred? If it does not or if it overtly or covertly denies God, be it even in the guise of evolutionary or other scientific theory of origins, it is wrong. This is one sin that cannot be forgiven. A denial of God – whether we call it freethinking or atheism – is a sin of the human spirit against the Holy Spirit. Yet daily via public media, in schools and even in churches, the voice of the antichrist insidiously takes its toll from amongst humanity.

Living in the consciousness of the presence of God takes away this burden from us and permits us the possibility to experience and mature in His Love. In doing this we clearly express the fact that we belong to Him as His own; And this expression is in the nature of our activities or works that correspond to His Will. Claiming to belong among the faithful, to be born again, to be a Christian, a Muslim or a Jew avails you nothing in the end if you fail to adjust to His Will. The volition must be followed by the deed.

No matter how we look at it, it may surely be said that all human beings, right from our first incarnation on this earth, have had abundant opportunities and still carry unlimited capability to recognise Creation and its Laws within which we experience everyday, for what they are – The language which our Creator speaks to us. The language we must learn if we are to be fruitful. It can also be stated with equal certainty that we have largely failed in this and that we have even with the best intention been unable to recognise the Will of our Creator in these natural phenomena. 

We experience them of course, that is inevitable, but the intuitive sensing of their eternal value eludes us and we only use these experiences for earthly goals and achievements. This is particularly so in the sciences. The mission of the various prophets over millennia and as a last help, that of the envoys of God – the Son of God, Jesus and the Son of Man, Imanuel – have all been directed at re-awakening our spirits to the expression of the Will of our Creator, the One and only God.

Guidance in the word from God

In spite of our failures, the Creator in His Love and Justice did not abandon us. As an act of Love and Mercy, He sent His Sons to us, to the depth of the abysmal darkness, to illuminate our darkness with the Light of His presence and to bring in person the Living Word of Truth that means Life. Life was thus again extended to us; to all sinking souls if only we will accept the hand held out to us in Love. This help brings to us knowledge of the Will of God in Creation and the possibility to experience and use it for our salvation. We must however always bear in mind the fact that the Will of God cannot be received in a lecture or sermon, nor from books or by meditations, but in a joyful, enthusiastic experiencing of every moment.

Divine Messages remind and enlighten us about the Will of the Creator and are meant to grow or mature to vital experiences within us. They are not meant to be “something separate, something that remains outside us, which we accustom ourselves to approach with timid reserve”. “Every Divine Message was granted to you so that it should become an integral part of you”. We are not meant to venerate the Word of Truth brought to us but to use it”. To accept the Word does not imply perfection, but a striving after a goal that is directed appropriately towards spiritual values and that consciously acknowledges the Will of God as manifest in the Laws of Nature. 

Action is demanded of us, activity positively adjusted to the Will of God and which encompasses our thoughts and words; not a vague feeling of being connected with the Lord! Action does not imply being active in the church, or rigorously following a set of rules determined as morally worthy by our sects. Spiritual activities simply imply actions that vibrate or swing in the Will of God. Uncompromising stands the Word of the Envoy of God – “Unless you do the Will of my Father, you cannot see the Kingdom of heaven”.

The Bringer of the Grail Message also demanded an awakening and vigorous spiritual activity that must swing in the Will of the Father. The time for an accounting we are told is near and in this last help lies the fulfilment of all the promises to humanity. For us all, approach and service to God must be on the basis of conviction; on the certainty that He Is and that He acknowledges our worship. 

We must however distinguish between actions based on conviction and those based on weakness in the personality. There is a certain parallel between an inability to stand firm, which underlies a tendency not to resist evil out of weakness and the clear, informed resolve not to resist evil with evil. Many people who are weak hide behind the name of the Almighty (a name that should not be used carelessly or loosely) when they fail to deal with situations that require a firm principle. They convince themselves, even if not others, that they fail to act or react because of their belief. 

The true Cross Bearer, one who takes up the cross of Truth daily to follow the Lord, however, must always stand uncompromisingly for the Truth and the Light and will defend purity, justice and Truth, if necessary, with his or her life. But he/she will not fight evil with evil. 

When we receive a personal insult or our rights are trodden upon in a personal way (distinct from those involving others that everyone must resist), the teaching of the Lord requires that we forgive and by so doing permit the greatest opportunity for the offending individual to find the right path while at the same time keeping our own path clear. This forgiveness, this turning of the other cheek and this meek attitude that arises from Love for the offender may superficially resemble the inactivity or passiveness (based on fear, cowardice or indolence) of the slothful which indeed may have hidden hatred attached to it.

Yet the difference between the two is vast. The one is like a bulwark, a rock against which storms of human caprices break, only to wash it clean in the process. These uncompromising adherents to the Truth are like the corner stones in the foundation, against which the rejecters of the only true foundation, God, ineffectively storm. They fall on the stone and are broken and in the process are permitted to pickup the pieces in the right order if they wish.

The other is like a doormat on which all clean their feet without noticing it, or perhaps like a rubbish heap where people cast off all their rejects. The use of the name of the Lord as a front by these indolent people is insincere and they know it, much like all those who use the name of the Lord for their excesses of torture, murder, oppression and the expression of all manners of human deviousness. In spite of trying to convince themselves otherwise, they know deep within their spiritual core that their actions do not reflect the Will of God, which prescribes only Love.

We must stand as a rock providing refuge, as a Light that disperses the darkness and as a leaven that elevates all who come in contact with us, whether they come with evil and malice or with hope and desire for the true path to the Lord. To be able to achieve this we must diligently and constantly seek the Will of our God in all circumstances and at all times.

Do not be a doormat for those with an evil volition for this will neither help them nor help you. Stand firm against anything that goes contrary to the Will of God. You have the right and the obligation to forgive personal injuries as already discussed; for the rest the Laws of God will bring balance for offences against the order of Creation. Always act out of conviction, with complete faith in God and in His Goodness, with Love for your fellowmen even when they appear to deserve it the least. 

Never use the name of God in vain, certainly never to justify any action of yours. Even if this is a good action, leave the justification to God. A heart that is full of reverence for God does not mouth the name in and out of season but only the head that is full of how to exploit the name. The Holy name is our shield and comfort and should be used only in those moments when we do need Him and occasionally also when we need to guide others.

The frequent use of the Holy name by an individual should alert people to the fact that the one using it does not know what he/she is doing and far from speaking of God is more likely to bring disgrace to the name.
