John the Beloved received by Al Fike
Blessings to you, beloved souls, I am John the Beloved. If you had the eyes to see, beloved souls, you would see that your numbers here on Earth are tiny compared to what surrounds you in spirit. Many, many souls are here, praying with you, observing and learning. For when you come together in this way, when you put your intentions to God to be in the Light, to be in that place of grace, you draw many to you, for a great Light is established amongst you and that Light draws the many spirits to it; many spirits who are dark and in need of comfort and Light, many spirits who are connected to each one of you, who are your relatives who are on the other side and, of course, the angels surround you, keeping you protected, praying with you and supporting you in this great effort.
Do you realize how rare this is, beloved souls, for a group of people to come together and pray for God’s Love in this simple and powerful way? It is very rare in this world and it is a powerful channel of Light for this world and I urge each and every one of you to consider what you have done together in your prayers, in your bonding and love for one another, in this effort to learn truth, to reach for the highest, to be with God in His Love.
You become the point of the arrow that is piercing the darkness. You become those that are forging the path for others. You walk a trail that is cluttered with obstructions and you yourselves have overcome whatever barrier has been in your way to come to this place of sincere prayer, longing for the highest gift, the Father’s Love. And I acknowledge each and everyone here who has made that choice, that great effort to come together. Some of you had no clear understanding of why. Others were firmly guided and clear in their intentions, but all of you chose together to be in this Love and Light, to share this experience together, to walk this distance sharing and loving, praying and bringing peace and joy to yourselves. What would the world be like, beloved souls, if all of humanity chose these simple ways to be together in love and harmony, to create amongst themselves a great intention to God to bring His blessings, His Love, His healing, His peace and comfort amongst you?
Love will change the world. Love will change the world, beloveds. Love changes you. Slowly your eyes are opening. You are able to see more clearly. You are that much closer to God. The Light that shines within you is a little brighter and many of you will continue to walk this path to discover its many wonders, to be more closely in the Love and closer to your Heavenly Father.
Each day is a choice. Each day is a choice for love or a choice to indulge in the human condition and with each breath you take, at times you indulge in the human condition and at times you indulge in the Love. I urge you, beloved souls, to make the choice for Love always, for in this, you will draw to you many wondrous things, many wondrous things: beautiful souls who will support you in your journey; great love will envelope you and flow within you; and an awakening of your soul’s great potentials that many of you have no idea you possess will come to the fore; gifts… - many gifts that are powerful and will assist not only yourselves but will be a great benefit to others. This is a calling, my beloveds, this calling of Love. It beckons your souls. It draws you together. It brings you to God. Although, it is so very simple, that which comes with this calling and your answering brings a myriad of experiences, awakenings, development of your soul and that indeed is a complex journey, many discoveries and challenges as you begin to know who you truly are, beloved souls, and what your potential is that God has created and placed within you, this wondrous soul that is you.
Many decide to turn away from this once they feel the power and the wonderment and the potential of this great journey of Love. They are fearful, fearful of change. For if there is one major component of the gift of the Father’s Love it is that it changes you. It draws your attention from the surface of your mind’s perceptions of the world to a deeper place, a deeper understanding, where the layers of illusions fall away and the truth is revealed. The difficulty in this is to truly see the darkness of the human condition. To see within those around you how this darkness interplays in their lives and interplays in your life is difficult, it is a challenge, but of course there are many rewards—liberation, beloved souls. Liberation from these conditions, this illusion, this darkness, brings a joy so deep it is unfathomable, brings perceptions so clear that you will wonder how you could not see before, brings a closeness to God that is like a rock, solid and unshakable.
Now many in the world seek material gratification. They see this as their goal in life and because this pursuit will never truly bring gratification they continue on and on in this relentless effort to fill that void within them and I say this is a hollow pursuit and I think many of you understand this. But the pursuit of God, the pursuit of infilling your soul with God’s Presence, His Essence, is not an idle pursuit. It is the beginning of a journey that shall last for all eternity, my beloveds. It is a true beginning for a soul that begins a life and this world, this existence here, is just a first step of infinite steps in your journey of life. To begin with this truth is a wondrous beginning, a powerful, powerful first step, for it sets you on a course that will bring all that you require, will bring to you everything, everything, my beloveds.
It is for you to choose. It is a simple choice to sit in prayer. To long for this Love requires nothing but your effort and time. Even a brief prayer for God for Love will eventually set you upon this course and the more effort you apply in this journey, the faster will be the awakening, the releasing of those human conditions, the understanding of the true purpose of life and the nurturing of that wondrous joy, that wondrous, wondrous joy.
So, these last few days, we have attempted to teach and to encourage, to point the way and we are very happy that you have listened and prayed, questioned and loved. And for those who wish to take this journey, we will walk with you always, never abandoning you, my beloveds, never abandoning you but walking with you each step of the way and God’s Hand will be upon you. His Hand will Touch each soul and bring a strength that will help you to not be distracted by these conditions that surround you but will pull you along encouraging and reminding you to take your time in prayer to be with your Heavenly Father, to be with yourself and with God. This is so important, to be removed from the world for those precious moments in Light, to be in silence and to be in that soulful love for God. How this nourishes you, my beloveds. Every mystic, every true child of God begins in this way. To allow yourselves to be with God, however momentarily, is a powerful statement in the world, a world that has turned itself away from God. Are you willing to say, “Father, I need you. I need your Love. I need you to help me rise above these conditions, my own condition and all that is around me to something higher, to something more true and real. I need to be nourished in my soul by your great Essence.”
This great gift is not known by many and yet here you all sit knowing, possessing this key of truth. Use this key to unlock the doors and I promise you, you will never be bored, you will never go without, you will always find something new, something beautiful, something precious as you make your own discoveries upon your unique path to God. Remember, it is His Love that is the key. Take this message into your heart and it is our fervent desire that when you do so, you feel the truth of it, you feel the power of it, you feel the wonderment of this beautiful gift, God’s Love.
Bless you, my beloveds. Know that the angels will be with you in the efforts that are to come. And yes, there will be many circles in the world. This will be part of God’s plan and some - many of you - will be a part of this, will travel and share your Light, your prayers with others. God bless you, beloved souls. God bless you. I am John and I love you.
