"The Annunciation of Your Soul's Victory"

     Children of the Sun, out of the octaves of the highest heaven I am descended to speak to you in this hour of earth changes and of your soul's path unto reunion with God.

     You have heard my Messenger speak to you of the paths beyond the grave. May you appreciate well that this is truly the hour of preparation for your soul's victory, but not alone for your soul but for [the souls of] all evolutions of earth who are turned toward God in this hour.

     I come with legions of seraphim and Justinius, Captain of Seraphic Bands. In answer to the calls and prayers of millions upon earth, we send our legions of Light into the very depths of this planet at all levels where there is profound suffering and souls lost. And we go forth in the service of Christ the King to minister to life.

     We enlist you in that service; for by the teaching, by the alerting and the awakening, by the comforting and the exhortation, you might also be our mouthpiece and convey the teachings of God, which are the teachings of Jesus Christ and all saints of heaven.

     I AM Gabriel of the flame! And the flame I do impart, for the flame is healing. It is the restoration of the soul unto wholeness. It is the great gathering by the power of the Holy Spirit of all of the forces of your being scattered to the winds in idle moments of idle sowings.

     Yes, I have come to give the annunciation unto the holy Mary. And I come again and again to give the annunciation unto sons and daughters of God of their own soul's victory in the Light.

     I come to tell you it is the hour and the lifetime when all things are truly possible in God. May you know that your Redeemer liveth1 and that there does come nigh to you not only angels but the Lord Christ himself, who would hold you to his heart and envelop you in the resurrection flame. Let there be the acceleration of your life! And may you know the true ministration of the Word.

     I, therefore, in the name of God and by his leave, do send forth my Light into all nations of the earth and into those who are warring against the people of God. I send forth the command of the LORD's hosts. Let there be, then, the binding of those evil spirits incarnate and fallen angels who move against the nations, who move against the common people themselves to take from them their life, their livelihood and their purpose and reason for being.

     The hand of God does move in the earth through the Archangels in this hour and through many beings of Light whose names are unknown to you. The forces of heaven are mighty to deliver you in your soul and in your innermost being and to deliver the nations. Yet the people must rise up to challenge their leaders who would lead them astray, lead them down the primrose path of the ruination of soul and government, of economy and the social order.

     You are beholding with your very eyes those evil spirits in embodiment who will massacre by the thousands and the ten thousands those whose presence in the earth is an inconvenience to their power struggles.

     We, the Archangels, have existed for aeons. We have fought on the side of right. But where the people do not espouse righteousness and the cause of God, how can we intercede?

     For you reign supreme on earth by your free will and this the pastors have not taught you! You ought not to wait for divine intervention but to see that you yourselves must play your role to defend the role of woman, to defend the Blessed Mother and her Manchild, to defend life in the womb that is also being massacred by the practice of abortion, which is ungodly!

     I come also, then, to speak for those souls who have shortly been killed by the abortionist's hand and the 25 million [already taken from the womb] in this nation alone. I speak in their defense and yours also; for this crime must be undone, even as the crimes against the Kurds, the Iraqis, the Tibetans, the Afghans and on and on throughout the earth must be undone!

     Let your voices be raised, then, in protest against those who do not defend life - life at any stage, life that is human and therefore God's. I am surely come to you to spare you the karma of neglect and the karma of silence when you do not let your voice count when these things take place.

     Blessed hearts, it is a time for the rallying of the children of the Light on earth. It is a time to say halt to those who stand in positions of leadership and yet fear to take their stand for life lest it will be politically unpopular - those who follow the expediencies of politics!

     You may well consider, then, in your heart where they will arrive, for how are the mighty fallen and the captains and the kings!2 Yes, beloved, they do not appear in the day of the Lord's glory, for they have turned against God in his people.

     May you look at your life and review it now instead of waiting [until the end of this life, when] you will appear before the Court of the Sacred Fire or the Lords of Karma. May you review it now, beloved, and undo [or forestall such actions] that you know you will later regret.

     Assign yourself a penance [of service to others along with so many minutes for so many days or weeks of Kuan Yin's Crystal Rosary3] as you confess your sins to Almighty God and therefore know that you can be forgiven and you can pay the price and you can deal with the karma and you can assist Jesus Christ in his mission this day of the saving of souls. You can help the Blessed Virgin as she does go forth into the astral plane for the saving of those souls, for she is the one who does descend there daily.

     O beloved ones of Light, we are angels and we come to minister to every part of life. We invite you to join us. As we minister to you, may you minister unto those [in our charge] who do not have this word of consolation, who do not know that they may call to us. Teach them how to pray, for prayer has become a dead ritual in many quarters and the children of the Light do not know that they may enlist all of the forces of heaven in the cause of Truth on earth.

     May you find the strength to fulfill all requirements of your life and yet prefer the law of God and enter into that zeal of the LORD. May that zeal be the eating up of the whole house4 of your being until you are aflame, as Zarathustra, as Melchizedek, as the mighty ones of God!

     We are spirits of living fire and we also appear to you in the rainbow rays of that fire. We come to consume in your households all hindrances of the mind and heart. We come to assist you that you might assist others.

     May you know that this final decade of this two-thousand-year cycle is a major challenge for every individual upon earth. That you may pass your tests and rise higher is our prayer and [to that end we give] our assistance.

     Yet you know the Law: your call does compel our answer. For we are servants appointed by God to minister unto his sons and daughters upon earth, yet if we do not have your call and your leave, we may not enter into the problems of the equations of your lives!

     Remember this! Some of you pray so long that you think you need no longer pray [on matters of immediacy] and just when a call to us is necessary for the liberation of your souls or a difficult situation, there is silence.

     Blessed ones, perpetual prayer is the prayer of the heart that does always pray even while you go about your business and deal with all those things that are required of your karma.

     I AM Gabriel, Comforter of Life. I come, then, not only with the annunciation of the birth of all children upon earth to parents who will have them, not only with the annunciation of the passing [of souls] to the next plane, and not even alone with the annunciation of the call to your victory and the call to join the armies of Light, but I also come with the annunciation of wars and rumors of wars5 and of Armageddon itself.

     We, the Archangels, do sound our trumpets even as we have poured out the vials of the seven last plagues upon earth.6 And they have been poured, beloved, and you have heard our dictations concerning these subjects. And therefore you know that these are vials of karma that have increased on the planet, causing a greater density as well as a restraint upon the works of Evil.

     One wonders how much more evil can be done and how that which is happening could be considered to be "restraint." Well, I tell you, were it not for the restraint of descending karma binding individuals to their past responsibilities, far greater wars would have already ensued upon this planet!

     There is indeed a mighty intercession by the hosts of the LORD. And those who do not realize [that] this [is going on] wonder what God is doing and why God does leave them to their plight. And you also know the Law and that the law of karma requires individuals to work out their salvation, as the apostle said, "with fear and with trembling."7

     Therefore I do come to you. And you may hear in me the release now of that sacred fire as I do intensify my delivery unto you!

     Know, therefore, that you ought to count your blessings daily to know what divine intercession has come about upon earth in answer to the prayers of so many people of all faiths. Blessed ones, [without these prayers] things would be far worse than they are today.

     Look, then, to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, but do not look to it as a panacea for all things! For truly that Second Coming must be accompanied by the full integration of your soul with the living Christ and the descent of that Christ bodily into your temple and every temple of Light that is raised up.

     Therefore know that when Christ does come to you and to all peoples, unless you are ready you shall not derive the benefit of that event. So it has well been said, "Prepare to meet thy God."8

     Meet thy God today and every day and you shall scarcely notice the transition from one plane to the next. There will be no surprises unto those who are faithful and just and sincere, those who shun hypocrisy and shun the lie and the Liar and the Murderer and the murderous intent.

     I AM Gabriel. I have descended into this city. I am come for the routing of all false religion and false teachers. I have come for the routing of the seed of Satan and of those practitioners [of black magic], sorcerers [engaged in] witchcraft and those who enter into the courts of Satan.

     The legions of Light do descend! Let Lightbearers of this city keep the flame and the vigil whereby the prayers for the removal of these astral forces shall result in greater protection, greater unfoldment and greater abundance of a spiritual path here and in this state. Therefore let the demons that prowl and that howl against the Lightbearers be bound! And let all people come into the knowledge and awareness of the God who is with them.

     I come to deliver the weary. I come to deliver those who have lost their faith in God, who doubt and fear and know not that God is real. I, Gabriel, minister to every part of Life. And I leave not one soul left aside this night, for I am able to go [to them] myself, I am able to multiply myself unto them, and my legions go with me.

     Therefore, O beloved of the Light, I release to you now the light of Victory, as well as the light of the judgment of forces of Darkness. May you take it up! May you multiply it! And may this weekend be a prayer vigil as well for the victory of all who abide here. And may rings of light go forth and move to cover the earth with the radiance of your invocations of Light.

     I AM Gabriel with Hope. I charge you now with the promise of victory if you fail not and faint not and fulfill all things to which our God has sent you to be on this earth in this auspicious moment.

     With the sign of the Seven Archangels, in the name Jesus Christ, I have come, I AM here and I shall not leave you, each one, until you shall have fulfilled your reason for being. Amen!

27.1  I AM the Witness - June 25, 1991

Vol. 34 No. 27 - I AM the Witness - June 25, 1991

     I AM the Witness

     My grandmother on my father's side was Irish and married to a Scottish man. She was a Catholic who went to church faithfully and said the rosary twice a day for as long as I can remember.

     She was quite a normal Irish grandmother in every way. She loved children and didn't have a mean bone in her body, although she was feisty and could "holler" as well as anyone. Nobody hesitated to jump into her lap at any time. Even in my twenties I would still have to sit there for a minute or two when I would visit!

     She had special little ways about her that shone right in the midst of her regular hard-working, hard-living family. Whenever she or one of us kids were in need of a nap or it was time to go to sleep at night, she would say, "Well, I guess it's time to go play with the angels." And she meant it. I grew up believing in angels, thanks to that grandmother and my own mother, who has an innate love for them herself.

     Anyway, one time I was staying at my grandmother's house during a visit when I was in my late twenties. One night I stayed up very late - all the rest of the house was asleep. As a rule, when I was ready for bed I would walk through the house and check the doors, etc. When I did so this night I heard my grandmother talking. I instinctively felt I should not disturb her but that I should check it out. So I waited out of sight and listened for a minute.

     When she passed by where I was standing without seeing me, I was shocked to hear her praying aloud, "O God, please don't let me die. I'm so afraid to die," over and over. I thought, "Why would my grandmother, who says the rosary twice daily, "plays" with the angels, goes to church faithfully, and has a loving family be so afraid to die?"

     I was a couple of years into the Teachings of the Ascended Masters at that time and knew about making the calls to them. So I decided to make calls for her. I prayed to Mother Mary and Jesus in particular and to their angels, as well as to her own guardian angel, to let her feel their presence, to help her know she was indeed not alone - that they were with her all the time and that they would be there when she was to make her transition.

     I also made the call that if it were God's will, someone she knew would be sent to her at the time of transition to convince her that there was nothing to fear. Now, I didn't put a lot of energy into it. I simply made the call now and then when I thought of her and trusted that it would turn out all right for her.

     A few years later after my grandmother, whom we all called Mar, had made her transition, my Aunt Ethel told me of her passing. It seems she took ill and went to the hospital, had a slight remission and went home for a while, got worse and went back to the hospital. Her condition was serious and the doctor told my aunt that they could keep her alive with machines but he didn't know for how long. Mar kept saying she wanted to go home so my aunt decided to take her out of the hospital and get a nurse to watch over her. The nurse cared for her during the day and my aunt watched over her at night.

     One particular night Mar was having a bad time of it. My aunt was sitting up in a chair near her bed. Mar was delirious and started having a conversation with her husband, who had made the transition many years before. Aunt Ethel said that she could feel the presence of my grandfather so strongly that the hair stood up on her arms and she did not dare look behind her for fear she would actually see him. (When my grandpa had made his transition, he appeared to my aunt at the foot of her bed and conveyed his good-bye. She found out the next morning that he had died around the same time.) The conversation seemed to be a bit of a struggle for Mar and finally ended as she gave a deep sigh and said, "OK, Ed, OK."

     The next morning Mar said to my aunt, "I gave you a bad time last night, didn't I, Ethel?" Ethel answered, "That's OK, Mar, I owed you one." And after some talk they decided it was all right for Ethel to go to work and have the day nurse, Jill, come in.

     When Jill got there she called up to Mar and asked her if she wanted breakfast. Mar said no but to come up. She told Jill she wanted to be bathed and have her hair set. And she wanted "that awful red polish" taken off her nails and "a pretty pink" put on. Afterward she told Jill to go back downstairs and check with her a little later.

     At a quarter to twelve, Jill went back up and Mar asked her to sit by her and do the rosary with her. Halfway through the rosary Jill realized my grandmother had made the transition. So peaceful it was. Mother Mary and the angels did not forget this one, this feisty little Irish Mar.

     And so I write this little but great "episode in a life" in gratitude and witness to the gentle hand of the Mother in all our lives. I have no doubt that those rosaries and even my calls, made so simply and without fanfare, were answered that day. The call, made in sincerity, indeed compels the answer.

     To the Beloved Messengers - True Ministers of Fire:

     Let this be my witness to the mighty power of the angelic hosts of Light and their dedication to mankind.

     Dear readers, allow me to begin by asking a question: Do you believe in guardian angels? If you are fortunate, your parents told you about these wonderful angels who "look out for you" and help you "stay out of trouble." However, if you were to ask most adults today this question, they would very likely look at you as if you were from another planet. (Mind you, some do come from Venus, but that's another story!)

     It's unfortunate, but it seems that the whole idea of having your very own guardian angel - or even several angels assigned to you - has gone out of fashion. (Thank goodness the angels do not go through fads!) As the Masters have said, the angels (and Ascended Masters) are the most loyal, faithful and constant friends you will ever know.

     The incident I will now relate I credit to my guardian angel and to the Prince of the Archangels, Lord Michael.

     I was about ten or eleven years old. It was a hot summer day and my father had just picked up my sister and me from our summer camp and we were driving home. I was exhausted and sleepy - so sleepy that I thought it would be wonderful to lean my head up against the car door and fall asleep. As I was about to do this, a strange yet beautiful thing happened.

     I heard a voice. I shall never forget that voice. It was a female voice - firm yet gentle, commanding yet soothing. The voice spoke to me and said (if I may paraphrase), "No, do not lay down your head. Wait until you get home."

     I do not have the words to describe the beauty of this voice nor the depth of this being's care for me (such is an angel's love). I instantly obeyed her command and raised myself to a more upright position.

     Shortly thereafter - seconds or minutes - our car was hit broadside by another car and the side on which I was sitting was completely smashed in. I sometimes have to remind myself of this fact, but if I had laid my head down as I had intended, I may have incurred severe head injuries and perhaps died. My gratitude to God and to Archangel Michael for the wondrous intercession and devotion of the angels of Light!

     The angels are such amazing helpers. If only we would let them into our lives, how happy they would make us and how happy we would make them! I once read that angels can fly because they take themselves lightly! And should we not do the same? Yes, we can spread the joy of the violet flame.

     The mighty assistance that does come to us through the angelic hosts and the Ascended Masters is given to us through two hearts of fire: Lanello and Guru Ma. I am so inspired, Mother, when I think of your commitment to your inner vows and your devotion to God. Thank you, dear Mother, for your unfailing service to the Light and dedication to the God Presence in each of us - and not only to the Keepers of the Flame but to all Lightbearers on Terra. (God certainly knew what he was doing when he sent you and Lanello!)

     I continually strive to commune with the angels and to develop a rapport with them. Let us all remember they are our comrades of Light who will never fail us. Thank God for angels!

     May I be always found in the joy of the violet flame and in the service of the Great White Brotherhood.

     In gratitude and love,

     To My Brothers and Sisters on the Path,

     One clear winter evening after a very full day of Summit University classes for me and Montessori International for my seven-year-old daughter, we headed for home in our car. Soon after we made the turn onto Highway 89 and made calls to Archangel Michael for protection, I noticed something very peculiar directly in front of the car.

     I saw what appeared to be the outline of the head and shoulders of two enormous transparent-blue beings 15 to 20 feet ahead of us. They were identical and stood upright. They were surrounded by a circle of light and were traveling at the exact speed that we were.

     After a few moments I asked my daughter if she saw anything. She said, "You mean those two big blue things?" Astonished, I then asked her to describe what she was seeing and said nothing else. She described exactly what I was seeing! I am convinced that we were seeing blue flame angels.

     I have never to my knowledge seen an angel before or since. I knew that children often see angels, but I never thought I would be so fortunate. Truth be known, I guess I didn't think myself worthy of such a blessing.

     I am so grateful that my daughter was with me that night - not only because she was there to see the angels too, but because if she had not been there, I probably would have attributed the vision to my imagination or some other "logical" explanation. They were with us the entire way and never left our sight until we pulled into our drive.

     Sincerely,
