Let the Nature of God Be Revealed in Meditation

Wim Haverkamp

Jesus called God “the Father within,” but how many of us in this modern world know what Jesus meant when he spoke of God as Father? None of us has any idea what the heavenly Father means because that Father is nothing like a human father. And so unless we understand the real meaning of Father in the sense in which Jesus used the word, when we speak of God as Father, we are merely mouthing words.

The Thunder Of Silence (3/5)

Wim Haverkamp

It is for this reason that you must not become hypnotized with appearances. By this I mean if you have an abundance of dollars or investments, do not become hypnotized into believing that because of this abundance of dollars and investments, or business that you have found economic security; because history will show you how many times such things have been wiped away.

The Thunder of Silence (2/5)

Wim Haverkamp

The same Spirit that raised up Jesus Christ from the dead will quicken also your mortal bodies. Do you see what I am trying to say to you—that there is a spirit? There is a spirit in man, there is a divine spark; there is that which we will today call the Christ which will lift you into the fourth dimension of life, that is, into a state of consciousness in which you do not live by your personal efforts, or your personal will, personal wisdom, personal strength, personal health, but in which you find yourself empowered from on High, that is, from the kingdom within your own being.

I, God, being the infinite divine universal principle and Joel Its instrumentality, vehicle, body, mode of expression, form, instrument or outlet—and yet one.

The “I”within (2/4)

Wim Haverkamp

Above all things, from this moment on we must never declare that anything is beyond our ability; we must not accept any sense of limitation; we must not accept the belief that any good is beyond our capacity or reach, or that any heights are too high to attain, for there are no limits to the I which I am after I have made contact with It.  It becomes literally true that I live yet not I; Christ, the infinite, the unlimited, the unbounded, the unfettered lives my life.

Contemplative Meditation (4/6)

Wim Haverkamp

Infinite Way Letter August 1956 By Joel Goldsmith Part 4 of 6 CONTEMPLATIVE MEDITATION Be Taught of God Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. I Corinthians 2:12, 13 Between the spiritual teacher and student there is a reciprocal spark of receptivity and responsiveness, because always the teacher has something to share … Continue reading Contemplative Meditation (4/6)
