Presence as Prayer

Posted on by

What you term “prayer” need have no formal form or words. Your PRESENCE to the Heavens is all that is necessary. By presence we mean your body, mind, and spirit in conscious AWARENESS of God.

To be aware, you must be out of your (thinking) mind. That is, the mind that is list making or otherwise telling you what to do or where you must be. That is your ego/human self being present to the world. 

Step out of your thinking mind. Move deliberately into your heart space, the God Mind. This is truly WHO YOU ARE—one with/connected to the Divine. You will find this connection when you leave your list of “to dos,” and center yourself to be PRESENT to God in your heart. You will know you are “there” when you feel an immediate sense of peace.  

Once you have made that conscious connection, you are in prayer. The lists and programs of the world fall away and you and God are fully together in conscious awareness/Oneness. It need only take a second in your time. BE PRESENT to God. The heavens will rejoice!

The Greatest Danger

Posted on by

We resume. Humans have not yet realized the basics of living on the Earth plane—why you are here, who you truly are, the true blessings and true dangers.

We speak of the dangers now.

The greatest danger is from yourself!  Are you surprised? Most do not realize this. If you did you would move mountains (as you say) to discover what within yourself keeps you from living in the Heaven that is available to you right now—every day.

There is indeed an evil force in your world whose works can be easily recognized. But there is a subtler application of this evil that is less easily recognized and is among you as yourself!

You do the work of evil when you allow the ego to tell you what is not true. When you choose to exclude and judge rather than embrace and include. When you allow your subtle fears of anxiety and concern to cloud the love that you are. You are safe in the embrace of the Divine who holds you in a great Love that shows up as blessing and grace. Cling to this assurance.

We say you must know yourself and love yourself, yet you are all in this world together for a reason. The other [person] IS also yourself.

The great lie being told is that you are alone, that your comforts come first. You are not separate from your brother and sister. You are one with him or her—connected through the Divine DNA you EACH carry within the spirit of your self. 

Remember what Jesus said—Love God, and love your neighbor as you love yourself.

In Love, Yusef

Walk As Jesus Did: Part 2

Posted on by

One of the subscribers asked a question from the last post, And so I asked Yusef for an answer. This is the (rather long) response. Thank you for the question, D.H.

“How do we walk in our divinity?”

The idea of “walking” the Earth describes the movement through your days. Your normal day as a human may be spent working, interacting, accomplishing tasks, and all the other “busyness” of ordinary human life. 

Those who walk, or live, from both humanity and divinity are aware that they are MORE than just their human nature. They know they have come from Home [heaven] for a purpose or purposes in this lifetime, and realize they are a child of the Most High. They are not absorbed in worries and concerns, but radiate a peace and inner joy—a confidence and trust that they are safe, cared for.

The inner happiness of these causes people to want to be around them. Their speech is thoughtful and considerate, because they regard all persons as part of themself—a family member. 

There is an honesty, a purity, an authenticity about experiencing life through both the soul nature and human nature. These [people] are content, complete in themselves because they are aware of the heavens as well as the earth. They realize they are a part of God and creation. 

These are not walking “saints”—holy or perfect. Humanity walks together with divinity. Thus these [people] experience all that the human physical life has for them. They are all ages, in all walks of life, and in all communities. You can recognize them by their openness to all that happens; as well as their compassion, service, or care for others. They are actively living out their purpose in joy and love. There is no malice in them.

Awareness of their true nature does not protect these from sorrow or suffering. Life may not be easier for these. Much may be asked of them, and when it is, they accept what comes.

Remember—you are both Human and Soul/Spirit. Awaken to the joy of living from both your soul nature and your human nature!

We thank you for the question. Yusef

Walk As Jesus Did

Posted on by

The joy of the heavens is to be included in the choices and decisions you make while walking the Earth path.

When you are attuned to the higher guidance, you walk as more than your human self. You walk as Jesus did—with both his humanity and his divinity alive on the earth. You also can do this.

Your human concerns and activities seem to be the most pressing to your senses. “Activate” your divine senses while you are in the world. It will all look different.

It is not a choice of one or the other. In every moment live in the awareness of your humanity and your divinity. Make all of your choices in the fullness of who you are. There is no conflict between the two. You are a child of the Most High walking the earth in a human experience.

Be awake to both the heavens and the earth. Walk as Jesus did—in tune with his humanity and his divinity. 

In love, Yusef

The Faith of “Lover”

Posted on by

To those who do the work of I AM—the work of Love in a world of fear—we say thank you. This is the most important effort to counter the fear so present, and causing the world to teeter. Love affects the balance and the outcome.

We resume. You wonder about faith. A most difficult concept to explain for those who do not have/know it. For those who do, no explanation is necessary. The depth of it sustains. The breadth of it supports.

It is faith that allows the steps of Lover to follow the difficult path.

We speak of Lover now. The one who is loved and knows Love. There is no doubt for this one. Troubles and trials can assault yet Lover continues to Love. There is no fear for this one. Trust is his/her key word.

Knowing the Father, Son, and Spirit as Self, Lover moves through each day unshaken by events, persons, or crises. Lover’s faith is strong and Lover realizes he/she is loved and protected beyond the events and dangers of the Earth. 

May the peace of the Most High Lover be with you this day.

Guidance From Yusef: Let Go of Fear Part II

Posted on by

We resume. We speak now to you who seek a life that offers the blessings of freedom from fear. 

Pray. Every moment placing yourself in the presence of the God of Love. 

Trust. That God, the Divine Source of Love, is with you always. In EVERY moment of time.

Shift. From your awareness of fear, to the awareness that you are loved beyond measure, that you are SAFE. Make that shift with every choice, every decision in your day.

Become AWARE of the ways fear and its many forms have a hold on you. As you become aware you will be surprised at the many big and small ways fear is present in your life. Notice your words, your thoughts, your actions. How do your worries, anxiety, and concerns show up in your life? You THINK this is your “natural” state. IT IS NOT. Try moving through one day, one hour, without fear. You will survive. Love is who and what you are.

Then notice the FREEDOM and lightness you have when you chose to let go of the hold that fear has over you. You cannot imagine the benefits to you, the world, and the heavens with each little step you take toward Love, and away from fear. 

Your NATURAL STATE is Love. Return to your natural state. Turn. Shift from fear to love. We are with you.

Guidance From Yusef: Question: Communicating with Spirit

Posted on by

Question: Is there a way to become more in tune, or aware—in order to be in communication with Angels and Spirit?

YUSEF:

We delight in this question. Said simply, it is all about ENERGY. Spirit must lower the frequency of their vibration and you must raise yours.

The energetic vibrations of Angels and other entities of God are beyond the vibration of most on the Earth. Thus, they must moderate/adjust their vibration to speak to you. It is helpful for you to move into higher vibrations to be able to hear them.

To attune to Spirit, you can raise your vibration through prayer, meditation, or just thinking happy, loving, or peaceful thoughts. These move you out of your human nature/ego and allow you to be present and OPEN to spirit.

Do not “try” to hear. You must “allow” spirit to present itself to you. When you “try to hear” as you say, you are in your humanness and your ego is running the show/the script.  Instead, simply be present—more difficult than it seems, with your human thinking and worries distracting you. Let go of these.

We do not want you to think that you must be praying, or meditating, watching a sunset, or in a “holy” place, (although these are good places to start). Spirit is also speaking and guiding as you move through your day. When we speak of being present, this may occur in any moment—while riding on an elevator, walking, or working, etc. It is any moment that calls you away from ego—when your soul can be present. When you were a child you may have called this “day dreaming,”—those times when you were out of your thinking mind. We hope this image helps. Practice this.

 Let us explain further. When one “hears” words or guidance, as the one writing this does, the communication comes through the human mind, but it is not the thinking mind. It is recognized as spirit because the ideas and words are not your own. It is obvious that what you are hearing comes from other than yourself. 

Spirits—Angels, Guides, and other Helpers—are constantly trying to get your attention. It is you who must attune to them. 

You may feel the love they send to you, or you may “hear” something in your mind, or you may simply be in a space of silence. Allow all. Do not doubt. You are not crazy. You are in tune with spirit that is communicating with you. 

They are always speaking to you. It is you who must:

  • raise your vibration
  • stay open (be present)
  • have no expectations (allow spirit to be with you, however spirit choses)
  • oh, and believe your experience (smile)

We will be happy to say more if there are questions. Yusef

NOTE: To hear spirit audibly, through the human ears, is uncommon, although it can occur. That requires spirit to lower their vibration tremendously in order for the sound to reach the ears of the human. As we say—most uncommon. 

 

Guidance From Yusef: Thoughts for a New Year

Posted on by

Hi to All, The following is a compilation of guidance from Yusef and my own additions. Enjoy!

Thoughts for a New Year

Love yourself. Be kind to yourself. It makes it easier to love and be kind to others.

Judge no one. We cannot know God’s plan for others, or the reason their souls chose to incarnate at this time and in this place. Accept them. Help them. Love them. Pray for them. It’s good for your soul, too.

Do not judge yourself. Notice your thoughts, words, and actions—without judgment. Then decide whether to keep them or change them. They are yours after all.

Judge no circumstance or situation. Look for the blessing, the joy, the opportunity, or the lesson. Give thanks for all.

Pay attention to your vibration (the state of your being). Notice how you, and your body, react to people or situations in your life. If you do not resonate with them, you may want to make changes…in yourself or in your situations.

You create your life through the choices you make. Be aware! Make conscious choices—the power is yours. Do not give others power over your life.

You have the truth within you. It may reveal itself in prayer/meditation, through what you read, or what you watch, or through a spiritual companion. You recognize it as truth because you knew it first. Look inward—God is there.

Your human nature is a “story,” created by your soul and God for this lifetime. You are not your story. You are a divine and limitless being—a child of God—the Source of Life and Love. Remember this.

Spend time in silence this year. Just sit with God.

Send love and light to all you encounter. You will bless them, and your Light will balance the fear so present in the world today.

Do not limit the Holy Spirit, who continues to reveal God to you, and to the world. Stay open.

Guidance From Yusef: Reader Question

Posted on by

Reader Question: When people do not ascend directly into Heaven, are they being held back by their own reservations? Are they not accepting of Heavens love?

YUSEF:

Each soul that leaves the human body has many choices. It is important, however, to realize that each one is surrounded by loving beings—before as well as during, the leaving. Love is always available.

There are those who may be unwilling to fully leave the earth at first. Part of them remains attached to the earth. Connections to loved ones, or unfinished business, or great trauma can be strong, and some part of them may chose to remain closer to the earth for a time. Remember though, that the “Major Soul” of each person is always with God.

Each person’s/soul’s acceptance of Love (God) is a complex dynamic that is not  “simple,” or easy for the human mind to comprehend. Love surrounds and is always present to each person. Yet the “state” of one’s soul—that is, its openness to the Love that surrounds it—determines how it experiences that Love. We recognize this is a difficult concept and will explain further if asked.

We remind you again that your loving thoughts/prayers are beneficial to all souls who have left the earthly realm. Those who for their own reasons are not yet in the fullness of what you call “Heaven” will benefit from your love. We also love and “pray” for them.

And are these the people that show themselves to me every night?

There are some people who are “open” to seeing, like the one asking this question. Thus some souls or heavenly beings may chose these to visit. The beings/souls reveal themselves for many reasons, most of which the human mind cannot understand, but your soul may recognize them. The one asking sees, and has given them permission to come, and we suggest that he send love to all.

We advise everyone reading this, that you need not react in fear, but always send love to those beings who may visit you. You may speak to them if you wish. We caution, however, that each night before you sleep you set the intention that only beings of Light and Love may visit. None other are welcome. 

You always have the option to accept visitors or tell them they are not welcome to come to you. The boundaries you set with your intention will be respected. It may also be helpful to enlist the aid of your Angel or Guide who can be the  “gatekeeper” for you. Speak to them of your intention. They are of God and will “monitor” your visitors. Fear not.

 

Guidance From Yusef: Eating Healthy and Spirit

Posted on by

Question: How important is it to eat healthy for our spiritual development? What would be considered the most beneficial things we consume and the most detrimental that could affect our connection to Spirit?

Yusef:

The first concept to understand is this: ALL is ENERGY—and all energy vibrates at a certain “signature” frequency. Thus, the food you eat, as well as the physical body you inhabit, is all vibrating at a “designated” frequency, thus making it what it is. If food and body were not vibrating, they would not exist.

Next, you are always connected to spirit. You ARE spirit, and you are one with spirit. There is no separation between you and Spirit/God/the Divine—ever.

Now, to answer the question, in light of the science lesson above…(smile) it must be said that there is no universal beneficial or detrimental list of foods that would impact your ability to communicate with Spirit. However, it is best to consume those foods that are in tune with each individual body.

Some foods will have an effect on the frequency of the body’s vibration. We do not judge these as “bad,” or “good.” It is your own awareness that must determine whether they “serve” you. Sugar is one. Intoxicating drinks are another. These do have an impact on the body’s vibration and thus its functioning. NOTE: These may, but also may not, impact your communication with Spirit. It is all individual. Remember, however, that you are always connected to Spirit/God.

Attune to the body you inhabit to recognize/discern/notice what foods or drinks are most energetically beneficial, or on the other hand, detrimental to you. Each physical body has its own signature vibrational frequency. Try to notice what food or drink “resonates” (vibrates) on a wellness frequency for you. You may have already noticed that your body reacts to some food and/or drink, perhaps causing you discomfort, or even dis-ease. It would be well to avoid these. On the other hand, what may cause you discomfort could have no affect on another’s body.

Strive to be in tune with the body you inhabit; it is constantly communicating with you—sending you messages as to its general well-being. Pay attention! When do you feel that your vibration is high? That is, notice when are you in a state of love or joy, experiencing a sense of lightness or well-being. Then, notice when you feel sluggish, perhaps “slower” than usual, or even sad. What have you ingested prior to sensing these feelings that may have had an impact on you?

You can see that it is you who must pay attention in order to know what foods or drink have a vibrational frequency that is optimal for your body. Once you are attuned you can even walk by a certain food and “know” that it is not beneficial to you. Trust your inner guidance and intuition. Pay attention.

We wish you wellness and high vibration!
