A Lesson on the Complex Layers of our Instrumentality

January 2nd, 2026

Barbados Retreat, Christchurch, Barbados

Augustine received by Al Fike

May your souls be opened wide to the inflowing of God’s Love, that great Elixir of the soul that is given freely by God and is waiting for you to accept, to desire and open yourself to its inflowing. I am your teacher, Augustine. It is good that you converse together about spiritual matters. It is good that those of you who speak of these matters continue to do so, to share your wisdom, for it uplifts the environment and the condition around you. For those who are new to this or have distortions regarding the truth, your efforts to share, to speak and to converse are of benefit.

What you must realise as well is that there are many spirits surrounding you at all times. There are many listening to your conversations. There are many who join you in prayer. Of course, the angels are with you as you come together in this way. The work does not end with you. It is not discontinued when you are not in prayer. It continues with every breath, for there are many around you who follow you, many spirits who are in need of light, love, truth and blessings. You are utilised by God in every moment, every day, whether you are awake or asleep. You are utilised by God as those instruments. When there are those who come who are not a regular part of your group, they too bring a retinue of spirits with them. This too is an opportunity to speak the truth. When you are walking through your day, through the streets, encountering various individuals, do you not think that God utilises you as a blessing to them?

There are many ways and means that God will bring His blessings to others. It is important for you, my beloved and beautiful students, to be praying, to pray to be used as God’s instruments, channels of love and blessings of truth for the world. As you say this prayer, as you ask to be used, so God will use you, so the opportunities will manifest and so you will be guided. Do not underestimate the potential of any given situation, but be receptive to your guidance, to the promptings of your soul and to what trickles into your mind and your consciousness. These are the avenues and the ways and means that God utilises you as an instrument. It is important for you to be cognisant of these opportunities, of the blessings that may come through you to another.

The entire world is in great need, my beloved friends, and you carry a truth, a light, your gifts, a soul that is in the process of awakening. What a treasure that is for the world. What vast opportunities are made available because your soul has received the blessing of God’s Love and has great abilities and potentials for God to utilise you as His instrument. Consider this, my beloved students, the responsibility that you carry, the opportunities that God sets before you, the potentials that may be realised, the light that is within you and around you. The angels walk with you and God’s Hand is upon you. All of these things conspire to make for a potent channel of love, light and blessings for the world.

Consider this. Consider what you pray for. Consider what may come as a result of your prayers, your actions, your thoughts and your desires. In this consideration, I urge you to reach for the highest, that the outcomes of your day may indeed be greatly blessed and greatly utilised to bring light into the world. All this comes with a soul that desires to be with God, in alignment with His Love and a channel of His Love. It is a simple practice, but the ramifications and the outcomes of your prayers and your being in alignment with the Truth of Love are tremendous, powerful, potent, deep and far-reaching.

Your mind does not recognise this. Your mind has a great deal of trouble understanding the complexities, the layers of service that are involved with God’s instruments, God’s beloved children. Yet you, my beloved students, must seek to know, seek to understand, seek to perceive what is happening in all these different ways and all these different levels of expression. This will bring true wisdom of the soul, true understanding of who you are and what you are and true awareness of God’s Will expressed in beautiful ways.

My beloved and beautiful students, you continue to stretch and grow, to learn and to progress. It is important that you recognise that each day is an opportunity to do so. See your day in this light and from this perspective. Be joyful in the knowledge that God will utilise you as His instruments in wondrous and beautiful ways. You are truly loved by God. May your love for God grow and expand, and in this mutual feeling and expression many wondrous works and blessings may be made manifest to you and through you, for the world.

God bless you, my students. I am your teacher, Augustine. I love you. I will continue to teach and to express the truth and I urge you to do so as well. Wherever the opportunity is given, speak that truth and be a channel of love for God, dear brothers and sisters. God bless you, beloved souls. God bless you.
