THE CHRIST VIBRATION

Chapter IX

If I linger, seemingly over-long, on this Christ Light and vibration, be patient for I am sharing with you the very keys of eternity. I cannot truly share gifts so exquisite and so divine without being sure that they have been placed completely within your grasp. Far too many books have been written about the divine powers without revealing the way for man to take hold of them. The purpose of this work is to place these divine promises of Almighty God within your grasp.

It is the Christ vibration that is the vibration of infinite power. This vibration is brought forth through continual love and praise and gratitude. This vibration is the contact with "The Light of Christ, which is given to abide in every man who cometh into the world." Praise, love, and adore and give thanks and the powers of this Light of Christ will begin to be released into your life.

This vibration of Christ Light is the most glorifying, the most powerful and the most dynamic in its scope of all vibrations in existence. It sets in order the things that are amiss in one's life. It fills one with a joy that is impossible to describe. It IS the joy of great spiritual ecstasy which prepares one to receive the FULNESS OF THE FATHER, or a FULLNESS OF JOY, which has been promised from the beginning. It is the New Song, which none can learn but the righteous, for there are neither words nor melody to express It. It is a song of love and praise and gratitude that blends in that triumphant song of the universe, the divine power of creation, the celestial symphony of God. It is glory unutterable.

This vibration is brought forth and developed by love -- the divine love that must fill the heart, soul and mind of the individual with a reverent, melting tenderness of utter and complete surrender. This love must be developed until there can be no hates, no discords, no darkness. This love alone can conquer and transmute all evil forces of negation and destruction.

To this divine, Christ-like love must be added the glorifying song of praise. In Revelations it speaks of the Elders who praise before the throne of God day and night. As this praising devotion is practiced it becomes a very part of one's being -- not just his second nature but his first. It becomes a song singing out of the soul and is a melody of Spiritual rapture that words are inadequate to express. Although, when that song of praise is first released in an individual's soul, it will be, in some way, forced out through his lips for he will be unable to contain it.

When that glorified song of praise first became an eternal part of my being so that my soul took actual hold of it, I traveled across a desert and for several days sang softly and with infinite, dynamic, almost consuming ecstasy, "Glory to God! Glory to God! Glory to God! Praise be to Him forever and forever! Glory to God! Glory to God!" It was a song of, "To God The Glory"! I could not have remained silent. If I had, the sands of the desert would have cried aloud and taken up the song of glory I could not contain.

I was completely in my right mind, more so perhaps than I had ever been before. And from that day on the song of praise, though unexpressed in words, has remained a part of my being. It ascends to the throne of God, shall we say, day and night. It is a song of inner love and devotion that has to ascend to God's throne. There is no place else for it to go. Nor can it remain, for it is not of this world. Nor can the world itself contain it.

Praise God in your own way, whenever you think of it. Praise Him for being God, for His power, His love, His abundance, His mercies -- for anything -- and everything! And before too long that great triumphant song of eternal praise, as it arises from your soul, will lift you with it to His very throne.

This praise is not to feed the ego of God, as so many with warped, little mortal minds have supposed. He does not sit on a far-off throne with petty little ears attuned to hear the miserable little song of praise, uttered in man's immature, mortal way. It is not for God at all that this song must ascend. This song of praise is man's to use to lift himself to the heights of His throne. It is man's own power of exaltation being exercised as it brings forth his own individual fulfillment and releases the powers of perfection within himself. It is but man's own soul finding its strength and power of celestial expression.

You may not express this song of praise at all as I did. How you express it is completely immaterial. But you will express it as your soul grows into it. And each expresses it in his, or her own way. Its expression is not glorified through shouting, nor confusion, nor unseemly acts, but in a dignity of melting love and eternal poise and gentleness. It is the praise of the soul that will express itself softly through your lips and in your own way and according to your own personality.

To this divine love and praise must be added the song of gratitude. This is "The Great-Attitude" as Christine Mercie so beautifully described it. "Be that attitude", the greatest of all attitudes and you will become Gratitude, or the "Great Be-attitude."

As love, praise and gratitude blend you will complete the powers within you that can overcome all things.

The gratitude is developed by never looking at your lacks. Give no thought to the things you do not have. Never mourn nor be distressed over the things you think you need. Like the widow, with her small cruse of oil, see only what you do have. As you praise and give thanks for your blessings they will begin to multiply.

This praise and thanksgiving is the law of spiritual multiplication -- and shortly all things will be added unto you "And you will be made glorious!" Such are the promises -- and such are their fulfilling powers. With this knowledge you will not need to ask for things. The Father knoweth what you have need of, even before you ask, when you align yourself to Him in this manner. "Before they speak I will answer." With this power of contact every blessing that is for your good and satisfaction will be poured from His great loving store of abundance until you will not have room enough to receive.

Thank Him for that abundance. And mean it. And as it increases, increase your thanks if you can. In such gratitude you will be made glorious and the very glory contained in you will be the only praise you will be able to return to Him for there will be no other way to express it. You yourself will become the praise and the glory and the love you seek to express, or interpret. Your expression will be the great overflowing joy in your own heart and soul released in its full spiritual power.

And it is this song of praise and love and gratitude, though unspoken, that releases the very powers of heaven. Praise and love and thanksgiving complete, or unite the powers of the greatest vibration possible to send forth or release. Keep that vibration going until you become IT. This is the vibration of the Light of Christ that is given to abide in you. This vibration, when fully developed within you, contains all power.

As you learn to hold this divine vibration so that nothing can take it from you, you actually take upon you His Name, His Great, Unspeakable Name and you will have the power to begin to do the works which he did for you will be anointed with Light.

In fully comprehending the reality of what is herein written, you must understand that every thought and every feeling must become allied with power through love and praise and gratitude.

Thus your every thought becomes powerful. There are no longer any weak, wishy-washy thoughts, no evil, discordant thoughts, no fear thoughts, nor idle thoughts. Your thoughts become allied with God and they become thoughts of infinite power.

Praise and love and gratitude are the keys of glory. These are your keys. These keys will open the door of your own great temple and reveal the powers contained within yourself, and will also align them with the powers of God.

These three, love and praise and thanksgiving, will reveal that door at which Christ stands knocking. That door is "The Great Christ Door!" As you open that door by using your keys of love and purified praise and gratitude, you will know of the "Front Door" of the temple and you will be able to step through it into the life more abundant -- not by dying but by learning to Live. This "Christ door", within yourself, is His door, the doorway to LIFE, the great FRONT DOOR to the higher realm.
