Session

Lesson

Ophelius: “Today’s lesson is on tuning the mind and body for maximum spirit reception and forward soul progression. It has been said that the body is the temple of the Lord, and so it is, for the indwelling Spirit of God within the mind of all men and women. How then can we better accommodate this indwelling so that we may have the maximum benefit from this most divine Gift of the Creator? To all those that have ears, let them hear: Today is the day to change the way you think and act. The temple must be cleansed and made ready for the work ahead. It is time for you to stop feeling sorry for yourselves and pull yourself up by the bootstraps. The indwelling Spirit desires to have greater intimacy and influence over your temporal life -- the Spirit wants to show you that all things are possible and that there are no limits to the possibilities of the creative force in the divine nature.

“You may now seriously consider the condition of the physical body, for it must be well cared for and operating at its maximum potential. The electro-chemical systems and brain functions are to be tuned and balanced -- cleansed of all toxins and slothful living. Just as a loving mother takes care of herself when carrying her unborn child, so too must you take great care in the embryonic soul you carry through life. The indwelling Spirit of God is the beating heart of this child of the universe. See not that you defile the lifeblood of this soul-self with unhealthy vices and the intake of harmful foods. A healthy vehicle requires proper exercise to maintain its system balances, and when these systems are working properly, spirit receptivity will improve. When the body is in balance, the mind will follow with healthy thoughts and feelings because the spirits can more easily communicate with you. Excuses and slothfulness only delay the joy of a creative spirit-filled life.

“Be aware and make a concerted effort to acknowledge the indwelling Spirit that you carry. Take seriously the responsibility of this divine trust and ask for strength and direction to achieve your goals. Don’t let another day go by when you ignore this true Friend and loving Partner, for now is the time to build those survival value qualities and life events that will bless you in this life and in the next. Onward and upward need you strive to achieve perfection as the Father calls you.

“I pray that a special blessing be bestowed upon all those that read this message and take it to heart -- that you would be reminded of its admonition when temptation and old habits confront you. Today is a new day, go boldly forward my beloved.

“Good day, “The Circle of Seven.”
