It Is Time My People Come Together!

When decisions are made to serve the Light, there will always come distractions to turn your attention away to what is perceived as the more important task.

Good evening, child. I am Sananda, come to visit with you upon this night reported to be my earthly birthday. I bring unto you the blessing of Holy God of Light, and I am well pleased that you have taken the counsel as you have.

Though it is understood that there are many Earthly duties that you perceive have been heaped upon your shoulders, know that most of these perceived duties are but distractions placed in your life to sway you off the path of receivership. There is so much that you can offer to your world by serving in this manner, and that is the reason the Darkness will forever try to seduce you from that service for which you have been chosen and you have chosen in this life experience.

Long before you came into this physical expression, you chose a life of service, whether you know it or not. You also chose to come into your present life, in this time of great chaos and planetary transition, for you knew that a clear-channel receiver was a role that the world would need.

Anytime you desire to be a teacher of the spiritual nature, you must have a life in which you learn much, for in learning, you shall be able to pass along advice and wisdom to those who are reaching out to you.

How often have you ones in the role of teacher found yourselves touching another at times least expected? This happens in the check-out line at a grocery store, or when listening to a co-worker struggling with a personal or business-related problem, or when taking-in a wayward and confused teenager, or when hugging and kissing a crying child.

How often have you seen, in the eyes of these ones, a glimmer of Light as you passed on to them a blessing in one form or another?

Can you deny that this is your chosen path?

A teacher comes in many forms and, as a receiver, you stand in the station of teacher. I understand your hesitation, for you do not feel qualified to be dishing-out advice.

However, consider that you do not so much pass on your own wisdom as you do that which is channeled through you, for your receiving abilities are not limited to penning words for publication. You are in a constant state of receivership, whether you recognize it or not!

There are many times when the receiver needs to be fine-tuned, for there is much interference on the frequency, but the channel is open nonetheless. Those are the times when you find yourself steeped in doubt and depression.

Depression is a state of mental and emotional anxiety when you have conflict within. That conflict is nearly always in making some choice between the heavier, material universes and the Lighter, spiritual universes.

As I stated above, when you have chosen a spiritual path, the Darkness will always attempt to interfere, to sway you away from this spiritual walk, by throwing all sorts of “emergencies” and other Earthly duties in your path. When you are in the process of making these choices, quite often ones will experience a state of depression. However, once the choice has been made, be it the physical path, or be it the spiritual path, the depression will almost always pass.

Those who are the most spiritually attuned and sensitive experience these states of mental depression. That depression is the “pull” or “tug of war” of conflict within. Those who suffer with this horrible ailment should pay very close attention, for if they did, and if they would consider what choices they need to be making, most of the Prozac could end up being flushed down the toilet!

There are two segments to the human brain—the side that is the vehicle for the physical mind, and the side that is the vehicle for the spiritual mind. These two segments of the mind/brain, when functioning properly, will be in balance; that is, neither side dominates, but both work in perfect synchronicity. That state is all but absent in 98% of the population of your planet at this time, and so there is always a state of internal conflict. With those of greater sensitivity, this conflict very often manifests itself in the form of mental depression.

So, how do you overcome these bouts of depression? By recognizing them for exactly what they are: the internal battle of Light and Dark. Your spiritual nature is attempting to get a message through to you, while the physical nature is pulling you in the opposite direction.

Your doctors give you explanations along the lines that the synapses of your nerves are misfiring, as a spark plug in your car misfires. There is a bio-electrical charge that these synapses create, and this spark (or charge) should, if things are functioning properly, cross the gap between the two segments of the brain. When a synapse misfires, the charge may fail to cross the gap. That is why it is helpful for you to make a conscious effort to make a decision, for in so doing, you are stimulating the synapses to fire properly, and thus for the charge-signal to cross the gap properly between the two brain segments.

That is what the so-called anti-depressant drugs are touted to do. And they do. However, as with nearly all of your chemically produced drugs, there are, in nearly all cases, undesirable side effects to deal with. These side effects are very much a cause for alarm in those people who are considered borderline depression cases. What happens is, the drug creates a spark great enough to cross the gap; but, it may “overfire”, so to speak, throwing the person out of the depressive state and into an over-reactive state, such as one of extreme anger or other expressive outrage.

When this occurs, you may have ones such as the Vietnam veteran who suddenly grabs his gun and goes out on a killing spree, only to remember nothing as soon as the dosage of the drug begins to wear off. Your chemists and doctors are dealing with something they know little about, and so, as usual, there are casualties—which often include more than just the patient.

[Editor’s Historical Note: It was in the pivotal 3/15/99 issue of CONTACT that the “bomb” was finally dropped to publicly expose the greatly deteriorated condition of Doris Ekker’s receiving abilities. This news shocked some CONTACT readers (the asleep or lazy ones) and caused many others to cheer (the awake and observant ones). Such a daring move soon resulted in a lock-out confrontation, a “parting of the ways”, and then the formation of a new, high-integrity publication called The SPECTRUM, about three months later, by some of what had been the core CONTACT staff.

For several months before this split, the beloved spiritual Messages regularly shared in CONTACT (but not received by Doris) were sprinkled with hints about the situation. However, even such subtle “exposure” caused a spooked Doris and E.J. Ekker to strongly request that CONTACT refrain from sharing any further spiritual Messages “for awhile” not long after this one appeared in print. Supposedly the spiritual Messages were eroding confidence in certain (shady?) financial dealings of theirs going on in the Philippines, where they had been residing (that is, hiding out) for over six months by that time—beyond what was originally supposed to be a few-week “business trip” in August of 1998.

But the spiritual Messages were meant for a worldwide audience of appreciative Ground Crew, and so, finally, enough was enough! So the 3/15/99 CONTACT, as part of its eye-opening exposé, shared 13 “revealing” Messages (including several that had previously been held back from publication) with a readership that was justifiably in a buzz after seeing the startling front-page headline that read: Ed Young “Fired” As CONTACT Chief. Now The Truth Shall Out.

These 13 exquisitely lesson-filled Messages were received by two superb receivers, both of whom, in their own way, had to long endure (and ultimately rise above) Doris Ekker’s bouts of jealous wrath directed toward any perceived intrusion on her self-proclaimed “territory”. That challenge was part of the “pep talk” from Sananda earlier in this Message to the reluctant receiver.

This present Message is chronologically #2 of the 13 total that were shared in that pivotal 3/15/99 issue of CONTACT. Starting in the paragraph immediately below, one can recognize Sananda’s gradual easing into the important subjects of personal discernment and public-Message integrity that are dealt with much more explicitly in later Messages as events unfolded during the next few months.]

You are winding up another year, and so, because of the mental and emotional conditioning of the population of the planet, it is a time of endings and beginnings. You are about to enter the last year of the current millennium, according to the dominant calendar used. There is significance to this because of the belief systems of the majority of your population. Therefore, it is a time now to reflect back and to look forward.

As the new year comes, so too will many changes. The year approaching, because it represents a cycle of completion, will prove to be a double-edged sword. There will be many, many blessings. But there shall also be much chaos and consternation. So, if you thought the past year has been an interesting ride, just wait until this next one begins to unfold.

Changes. That shall be the order of the day, nearly every day. For those who live strictly in the physical realm, there will be more grief than joy. For those who live by the spirit, there will also be great changes.

But those who have been studying the Teachings we have been offering for these last many years should recognize and understand what is taking place. All those things you have learned shall come to serve you well!

It is also a time for those of you who have chosen to assist in the transition of the planet to begin your work IN EARNEST.

The coming year will definitely be a time when I shall separate the “chaff” from the “wheat”. There is going to be an infusion of the Light as you have never before seen, as the cleansing becomes accelerated during the coming year.

Those who function in less than truth are going to find it more and more difficult to cover their tracks. There are going to be even more uncoverings of past indiscretions and lies.

Some shall find it unbearable to the point where they choose to simply leave the planet through the death process.

People shall be forced to make their choices, as the “battle lines” are drawn between the forces of Light and Dark. For some, it will appear that all hell has broken loose; for others, they will instead believe that the Kingdom of Heaven has come to Earth.

It shall all be in the perspective of the individual. Those sitting on the fence are going to get kicked off to one side or the other! So, get ready to be confronted with all sorts of decision-making opportunities.

I made a statement, lo so many years past, that in those final days, to either be hot or cold, for the lukewarm I would spew out. That means NOW! And that means every one of you who has not made up your mind as to whether you serve the Light or you serve the Darkness.

IT IS THE TIME OF MAKING UP YOUR MINDS! Those who serve the Light are going to find they have little-to-no tolerance for deception in ANY form, and these are those who WILL DEMAND THE TRUTH!

Do not think for one moment that the cleansing is going to take place only within the Dark recesses of governments and big businesses, although it shall.

BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY TO YOU THAT THE GREATER CLEANSING WILL BE AMONG MINE OWN! Those who claim to be in service unto the Light, yet in their hearts believe differently, are going to fall by the wayside.

That is why you have been offered so many Messages from so many valid sources which suggest you MUST learn to turn to your OWN inner Guidance and stop relying solely on those who have been penning our Messages all these past years.

MANY OF THOSE WHO HAVE CLAIMED TO BE WRITING OR SPEAKING FOR THE LIGHT ARE INDEED IMPOSTERS, OR HAVE SLIPPED FROM AN HONEST TO A DISHONEST ROLE, AND I INTEND THAT THESE ONES SHALL BE UNCOVERED.

If I cannot have honesty from within mine own, then how can I, or you, demand honesty from the others?

NO, FIRST THE PURGING WILL OCCUR WITHIN MINE OWN RANKS! So be it.

This internal cleansing is going to upset many, for they have found it comforting to follow another. Yet, it is also laziness on their part, for they believe that they assume no accountability for their choices.

I SAY UNTO EACH OF YOU THAT YOU HAVE ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY ONCE YOU HAVE HEARD AND KNOW THE TRUTH!

After such time, following another one blindly is not an excuse that I shall accept. If you ones thought that we Teachers from the Higher Realms have been hard and harsh before, you have seen nothing yet. What may appear as harshness is simply demanding that each and every one of you take a stand and choose now whom you intend to serve. And you shall be responsible and accountable for the choice you make.

Judgment is not your job, but it is mine and my Father’s. You would serve yourselves well to begin judging thine own intent and actions, rather than those of another, for none of you know the intent and agreements of another. So leave the judging up to those who DO KNOW the intent and agreements!

Believe me when I tell you that you shall have quite enough to do focusing upon your own person in the coming year!

To my receivers, I wish to address the subject of doubt. You ones, all of you, struggle with whether you are hearing properly and correctly, and whether you are hearing those of the Light or those of Darkness. In your doubt, you err.

Doubt comes from fear, and fear is from the Darkness. So shed the Darkness, shed the fear, and the doubt shall cease to exist. Always be diligent in demanding identification, and check your own inner Guidance, for it shall serve you well if the intent is pure.

Those in the station of (especially public) receivership have had much practice and lessons in discernment over the past years, and this was for a purpose. Those lessons shall now serve you well, for in your learning you have grown strong.

There are literally thousands of you. Some have just become more public than have others, but each of you is serving a specific purpose, and most of you are serving VERY WELL.

Those who are penning and speaking for purposes of personal or material gain or gratification shall also receive their reward very soon, for we are even now dealing with them.

Those of you who have made the decision to serve the Light are going to have a most interesting year. You are going to make connections with others of like mind and spirit, and you will be amazed by whom you shall be coming in contact with.

I will caution you ones, however, that regardless of how famous the personality might be, each of you has a specific and EQUALLY IMPORTANT role to play, so guard against the demi-god syndrome that you are so apt to fall into.

IT IS TIME THAT MY PEOPLE COME TOGETHER AND DECLARE THEMSELVES TO ONE ANOTHER AND TO THE WORLD AT LARGE!

Many of you ones have been quietly working behind the scenes for many years now, and it is time that you each step forward and take upon yourselves the job which you are here to perform.

IT SHALL BE A TIME SUCH AS YOU HAVE NEVER WITNESSED BEFORE UPON EARTH, AND IT SHALL BE A JOY UNTO YOU!

There is much more that I could say at this time. But let us draw this to a close, for I believe that I have given you ones enough for consideration at this time. If you feel that this Message is overload for you, it is imperative that you take the time to go within and settle yourself—for it can be overwhelming. But together, believe me, we shall go through onto the other side of these times.

I am Sananda, One with the Light of Holy God of Creation. I leave thee with my Father’s blessing upon thee. Salu.
