Opening
Prayer: Divine parents, we humbly seek your presence in our lives even in this hour, even over this circuit we form together. Please bring your presence to comfort us as we overcome the awkward stages of this form of communication and help us to feel as though all of us are sitting around one cozy room together and able to share in this communication in each others presence. Most of all bring us your presence that we may feel this connection to you anytime and anywhere and everywhere that we might be, that we may always feel the closer to you. We would welcome your emissaries of light that you grant us with at this time. With open hearts and open minds we would welcome any message you would have for us. Thank you.
Machiventa: I greet you once again. This is your instructor and associate in this teaching mission. I am Machiventa and I am unable to resist the call put forth by the calling of your hearts, the willingness to embrace spiritual truths, the exercise of the very faith necessary to complete this circuit, to bring all the way to the material that which is universal and spiritual.
Lesson
This communication we enjoy this hour is brought to you by you. It is your desire to stretch beyond your normal boundaries, to reach out beyond that which you can see and to experience what is on the other side of the curtain from your material eyes. This circuit does not exist to act as proof to win over those who may not believe, but rather this circuit exists as a direct result of the fact that you do believe. Therefore can this potential be made real, this possibility become actual in our experience. Therefore I commend you all on the progress that you have made to get yourselves to this precipice, to this edge where you may look over into another realm and through you own force of will, make great progress and experience that which is outside of your physical parameters.
I hope that the progress that you have made that enables you to be where you are now, will serve as a reminder and an inspiration of what can be accomplished in a relatively short period of time when you are committed and applied to the task of growth. Likewise will your commitment and your sincerity serve you well as you move forward through these next stages of your spiritual development and provide you with greater and greater opportunities to exercise your faith and to gain the rewards for having done so.
Each of you as individuals are solely responsible for your own growth and personal development and as well responsible for any lack of progress or tangential experiences that you may embark on as you move forward in this march of time and space. We are pleased to be made aware, and I will do my best to make you aware, that the cries of your world have been heard by those in authority on high and the petitions of your souls have been granted. Once this monumental swing has been inaugurated, the end of accomplishment and success is ours for the striving.
We know now that the forces of the heavens have directed that this project be accelerated and brought to completion, that it will be so, it is only a matter of time intervening until we all will see the fruition of this plan and the time intervening I speak of is yours. You are the ones engaged at this juncture of time and space. As the correcting time has been inaugurated and sets sail, you have volunteered to act as the shipmates and to sail these vessels destined for light and life to the best of your abilities.
Many of you have been studying for some time the navigational charts and stars that you must use to navigate your way through the challenges that are before you and you know full well this is not a pleasure cruise on which you will occupy the observers perspective of the deck chair, but rather will you be called upon to perform the duties necessary to sail the ship safely into the harbors of light and life. But I see as I look out among you, you are able hands and willing, and that is all that is required for a successful and smooth operation.
Those aspects of skill that you may be lacking can be brought to you during the course of this exercise if you are but willing to learn. You are in fact capable, it is only your willingness, your desire to serve which is required to enable you to be wholly useful in this voyage that we share together. Just as this communication is a result of your efforts to allow it and to believe in it, so will your efforts aboard this vessel be elevated in response to your ability to exercise your faith that it is possible, not only possible, but to be encountered, to be expected of those who exercise great faith.
All of your great leaders that you are aware of in your history have leaned heavily on the immaterial realms, the realms not seen for their strengths, for their endurance, for their guidance, these have come from on high and your great leaders have been strong enough to allow this wisdom and this strength to guide them in their actions, to steer them in their reactions to all that this life might throw at them. You too have access to these same channels, not only of communication, but of support, of strength, of wisdom, of peace and of certainty of the destiny of your mission.
If you see your mission as seen by the Creator, you would know that all of your actions are merely played out in time to the meter of the Divine, and you would take great heart and great comfort in knowing the contributions that you each make towards the inevitable unfoldment of the Divine plan envisioned for our world. We are but workers in the field and the harvest is the Creator’s. Happy workers we are that we are privileged to bring in this harvest and to prepare it to be glorified on high.
I encourage you to stretch even more and even farther, your wings of faith. These wings of faith are what enables you to free yourself from the material component of your lives. These wings of faith augment the spiritual component of your being and provide you with freedom to transform yourselves from the material, even through the semi-material, even to the spiritual realm. This is all done by your direct efforts and therefore do I recognize the progress each of you have made to this point.
Therefore do I congratulate you for these steps that have opened your eyes to this point, that have opened your ears to these messages from outside. You have labored for these accomplishments each one individually, and they are yours to keep forever and as with any accomplishment, one always looks to the next level, the next step to take, and I encourage you to be bold in your assumptions of faith, to be strong in your conviction, to have a mind set of certainty, not only of the eventual outcome of this glorious mission we are currently engaged in, but of your valuable position within it as well.
You are all needed workers in the field. We need every pair of hands, every voice, every soul who has sprouted wings of faith to engage in this great and grand task before us of harvesting all that is being nurtured and grown in this time and space. All things work towards the good and even so in all that surrounds you on a material level. The Father has magnificent ways of turning all that happens into the positive and therein is where you may be helpful. Therein is where the exercise of your faith may bring the truth of this reality to those around you, that all is outworking to the good. That even that which we encounter which appears negative and detrimental can be used to glorify this plan of the Father.
It is those who will act with boldness and certainty of character that will point this out to the others and promote those ideals and ideas that will foster all the latent tendencies now present in all of the Creator’s children. It is not necessary that you provide the desire within another, merely that you spark this desire, merely that you trigger this latent effect as you have had this triggered in your lives. You can be that catalyst, you can be the spark, the trigger, the force to unleash this goodness and to bring about the greatness before us. Truly you will be amazed what will be accomplished by the most simple and basic acts of faith, motions of trust and exhibitions of divine character.
That concludes my lesson today but I would remain to entertain thoughts, questions, or suggestions from you my counterparts in the flesh, in whom I depend upon for the progress of this very plan that we make real, even in this very hour.
Dialogue
Q: You speak about being a worker in the field and that is something I am interested in being a part of, the correcting time, and seeing what part I can contribute to the unfolding of life and light. I find myself asking what can I do, what should I do? What is the Fathers will for me? I find that hard to determine. When I get an idea of what to do I wonder . .Is that my idea, or is that the Creator’s will for me? How can we begin to distinguish between our will and serving the Father’s will?
Machiventa: A first and most obvious step is to actively align your will with the will of the Father, therefore creating the reality that it is your will that the Father’s will be done, and in all honesty and sincerity, after having reached this realization, then you must in fact extend your faith to include that if you are inspired, if you are made to understand, if you are brought into realization, these are designed by the Father as a result of your desire to align your will with his. When asked, what should I do as an individual to facilitate the Fathers will, I would say it is simple.
You must become the highest ideals that you are aware of, not just know of these ideals, not be able to express these ideals, but rather become these ideals. Portray that which you know to be true. Become the truth in your lives. Actions are so many more times powerful than any words. The strongest and most powerful thing that you can do is to live your life in line with the highest spiritual realities that you are aware of, to become the embodiment of making spiritual realities real in your life. Many times as part of the learning process, we are exposed to many truths that we then must digest and embrace and internalize as our own truths, then at some point, having had the benefit of the teaching and the learning, we must then put into practice that which we have learned.
That what we have been taught must be made real, must be brought into life through the choices that we make everyday about even of the most common of affairs because every situation that you encounter on the plain in which you inhabit, is an opportunity for you to express spiritual truth, universal beauty, and real and actual goodness. Those are what you are to portray in this life to make them a part of your nature, to look for the opportunity to portray an aspect of this truth, beauty, or goodness. Seek out the opportunity to make an ideal real. To make a potential actual.
Your great leaders have in the past made great headway by putting forth their vision, their idea that they would promote and then many others are then offered a choice to support this idea or that idea, this platform or that platform. The most powerful platform that you could promote in your lives is one of a spiritual nature and a universal magnitude. That will transcend all manner of material circumstances and provide you with the guidelines in which to operate which are superior to any material set of guidelines you may encounter.
Therefore do not be content with the way things are. Look to the future and create the way things should be. You are each one co-Creators with your Master, with your Creator. In this time and space it is you who are at the focal points, you who occupy the pivotal positions, indeed you who make it entirely possible. As you do this hour and this communication, so can you all the hours of your lives and all the opportunities that are presented to you. Make it your goal, your mission, to be engaged, to seek out the opportunity for service. To be the one in the right place at the right time. That is your privilege, your opportunity, your growth potential. It is wonderful that you ask yourself these questions, how to be of service, and when you encounter that you have missed an opportunity or fallen short of a goal, these are learning steps so that the next time you will be keen and sensitive to the opportunity, you will be present and attentive when the opportunity arises for you to function in the capacity of spirit.
Many think they are not worthy for such a task, but I would put such worries to rest. Your Divine Parents love you so much, they have designed this entire plan to rest upon your shoulders. That is how much trust they have in you, now how much trust would you offer them that they may interact with you, they may assist you, they may promote your efforts? They desire this working relationship and although it is unusual on the physical plane that you exist, so is this communication we enjoy now.
Q: Thank you for your very thorough and inspiring response, I really appreciate it.
Closing
Machiventa: Thank you for your partnership, I so appreciate that as well. Would there be any other questions or expressions tonight? If not, perhaps we should all engage in an attitude of prayer. Creator, please help us each one to act as co-Creators with you. Help us to fulfill our destinies that you have provided for us. Help us to be all the potential that you have granted within each one of us. May we be attentive and alert to your signals. May we be strong and certain in our faith. May we act for you and as you, in your stead in our positions that we occupy in this life. We know of a certainty that you hear our petitions.
We believe that our desire pleases you and that you will respond when we ask your assistance. Thank you for the great gift we all are living through, this experience of such a grand nature. Help us to feel worthy that we may implement this plan to the glory of the Father in heaven. We are certain, and we will function in conviction that we are engaged with you in this process and we remain certain that you will be engaged with us in this process. Help us to make it so.
