Teacher: The Beloved One.
Subject: “By Divine Appointment.”
Message received by Lytske.
The Beloved One: “Finally, we are once more on the same page, so I can endeavor to divulge more insights to you, my faithful student. The subject title says it all; that not only you, but all thinking humans hopefully eventually realize that they are living on earth by Divine Appointment. Just this one realization ought to give anyone food for thought as to how they personally are fulfilling their divine appointment.
“Of course there will always be those, who do not give much thought to the reason why they are alive and what their purpose in life is. Then there are those who might give it some cursory thought and leave it at that until some crisis happens or perhaps advancing age makes them think about their future.
“The next category embraces those, who have cultivated the habit of being grateful for all blessings received. It takes an optimistic view of life to keep going despite the usual hardships on this planet. At an early age they adopt a lifestyle of: ‘when the going gets tough, the tough get going.’ These become the ones who courageously cultivate perseverance through self-discipline, which in turn helps them to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles by living day by day.
“In this manner, the future tends to take care of itself. They are not overmuch bothered by the past as they are too busy living in the present. These mortals early realize that there is much more to life than meets the eye, often through some sort of difficulty, hardship or unforeseen happening and they start thinking about the meaning of life and may discover that a mysterious ‘Force’ lives inside them, which unbeknownst to them was there all along through the highs and lows of life.
“Blessed are those who make the personal connection with the ‘Force’ within, that has been propelling them all along, and sooner or later they sense that they are alive by divine appointment and in earnest they begin to seek God’s will in life.
“Consider yourself blessed, child, that you are beginning to realize that you, too, are here by divine appointment and are more clearly beginning to sense your purpose in life. How you can be of greater service to ‘The All That Is,’ meanwhile enriching your soul through performing loving service, even though you don’t realize the extent of it all. In simple terms, you are beginning to fulfill your divine blueprint, given to each mortal born on the worlds of space.
“Great and unfathomable is the generosity of the Creator, who gives all humans the prerogative of free will to choose to answer the call of becoming perfect like the Creator is perfect if they desire wholeheartedly to come back Home. In order to do so the Creator endows mortals with minds to think so they can choose how to grow their eternal souls, especially with an on-board Partner, a personal Spark from the Universal Creator Himself.
“All thinking mortals on this planet are here by Divine Appointment to choose eternal life by evolving their souls through loving service with love, tolerance and forgiveness toward one another in truth, beauty and goodness.
“Do remind yourselves of this.”

Illawarra District, Australia, November 5, 2015.
Teacher: Midwayer Chief, Bzutu (ABC-22).
Subject: “A Long List of Ills.”
Message received by George Barnard.
Bzutu: “This is Midwayer Chief Bzutu or ABC-22, as I am referred to by most. Over centuries past I have become one of the most pre-eminant Progress Chiefs during all of my tenures as leader by virtue of my treating all personalities and important things as equal in value and yes, without bias. Today, by subscriber (and George’s) invitation, I do add, I will speak about fundamental values.”
George: “No holds barred. Counting on it.”
Bzutu: “‘No holds barred,’ says he! Indeed, that’s what your behavior has been of late. Your fundamental values are as non-existent as they possibly can be. Do you reflect upon the fact that life has gone on … of a sort? You see young adults ‘out there’ with their children, as it always was? And you wonder what kind of life their youngsters will inherit? What kind of world will be theirs? What kind of reality they will ascribe to? Will they know truth, beauty and goodness and God’s Will?
“In truth, your Western, so-called democratic civilizations, are on the brink. Your national departments of defense are infinitely more like departments of offense, we haven’t failed to notice. And it is clear to all that you cannot be, remain or become, the biggest, most important or the best by destroying ‘the kings’ of the broken countries around you. Surely the universe will not forget and the infinite law of karma will be a part of you, like an ugly birthmark that simply refuses to wash off. It is time for talks and agreements, cold showers for some, less hubris and letting all sanctions’ end forthwith.
“There are myriad tasks for you to engage in as individuals, families and nations. Although much is to be done, you cannot do it all. Better to select just one thing and earn your ‘brownie points’ with that particular mission, may you call it. Are you aware of the enormous loss of habitat in the Middle East and the Levant? Might it be left to China to rehabilitate these places by three-dimensionally print new homes to make good what the barbarians from both sides destroyed? (See note below) Even while many nations are involved in the destruction, they are still committing crimes and all will pay. Bombs do not bring peace.
“Is this all too much to contemplate? Is there anything you can do? There are simpler tasks for you to get involved with. There are foodstuffs being altered, causing illnesses. There are plastics everywhere, killing birds and turtles. In this world of weapons’ budgets and hunger, destruction and distraction, drugs and pollution, hatred and lack of care, you can be a small ‘island’ of positive input.
“Importantly, do not vote for those who are criminally insane and who have turned this beautiful world into a most dangerous place … pushing it towards WWIII. Living in such a world with the eye ever on truth, beauty and goodness, as well as the Creator Father’s Will for you, personally, will make a resounding success of your life. Thank you brother. This is all I want to say. I leave you now. Adieu.”
Note on bolded sentence above: If there is talk about China helping to rebuild homes in the Levant, I’m not aware of it. I also did not want to lift that sentence out of the transmission, but maybe I was just tired and goofed.

Teacher Ophelius.
Subject: “The Power of Connection.”
Message received by Chris Maurus.
Teacher Ophelius: “Today we would like to speak about the Power of Connection. This is one of the most important principles of universal law to understand, for its use by those who comprehend it can change the hearts and minds of those who are lost and disconnected from their higher selves, which can change the outcome of a situation or create a positive feeling of love and hope in those who cannot see through their own confusion.
“Because we are all connected at the root of our being — all parts of the Whole, we all have the power to connect to any part of the collective universal consciousness, which you, I, and every other being in the universe is a part of, and therefore can you communicate using this ‘superhighway’ to tap into heart of another and create a high-level connection. The fuel for the vehicle used to connect on this superhighway is the power of love wielded by your intention. One aspect of this power is what many of you students on the path understand as ‘prayer.’ Prayer is a method of connection, communication and intention.
“When a friend, a loved one or an enemy is lost and confused or ill in mind or body, they are essentially ‘disconnected’ from their higher selves — that Divine Presence that indwells each person and which has the greatest influence on the heart when connected. You, the students of love, can reach out to these disconnected individuals by ‘thinking’ loving intentions, which establishes a connection whereby you can ‘pour in’ the fuel of love that can help that individual reconnect to their higher self in the ‘heart space.’ The more pure the fuel, the greater and stronger is that connection. When your intention has preconditions or agendas attached, the signal is weakened and has little influence and this is why we often pray, Father, let Your Will be done. This modifier filters the fuel for the intention and removes all preconditions and agendas. Sending love is the healing power needed to reconnect that individual to their own God Fragment, which can then have the greatest influence on the heart to change a situation, a confused mind or heal an illness.
“It’s all about connection, my friends. When we connect to the Source, we connect to our highest and greatest power to change and become more god-like through the understanding of divine love — a love that is unconditional. Even to our greatest enemy, those who are destructive and cause harm, can we send love through this superhighway of connection that can have influence on the heart of the confused mind and help reconnect them to their own divinity. This is why the Master, Jesus, said to ‘pray for your enemies.’ It is to help them ‘reconnect’ where they can make a conscious choice to take a less destructive path or make a decision that will change the outcome of a seemingly hopeless situation.
“When you sit in the stillness and connect with Source, you are strengthening that power of connection, which in effect, helps you to understand the higher language of divine love that changes the heart, that changes the mind, that changes your understanding of the divine. You progress and become more god-like than you were a moment before.
“Reach out, my friends, and love one another. That is the greatest agent of change your world can have to heal and move beyond its current state of confusion. Practice this Power of Connection and be amazed at what can be accomplished!
“Peace to you,
“The Circle of Seven.”

Teacher: Prolotheos.
Subject: “The Seasons of Life.”
Message received by Valdir Soares.
Prolotheos: “Eternity in Universal Philosophy is defined as cycles — unending cycles. One way to see the life of ascendant children of God is to understand it as a rising, infinite cycle. This idea connotes both repetition, progress and elevation. In life, events, situations, circumstances reappear as if they were running in circles, but they are only similar and dynamic cycles, because although they seem the same, they are not identical. Every human being experiences birth, life and death, but the specifics of each life, for although similar, are very distinct from each other. In this opportunity let us pause to reflect on the Seasons of Life and how to make the most of them. In general we can find three kinds of seasons in the life of mature human beings.
“The Season of Planning. Human beings usually do not do things randomly. As beings with personality, you also do not do things purely automatically or instinctively. You are capable of planning, capable of analyzing a move before performing the actual move. You can prepare and analyze your plans in your mind before executing them, to know what could be the possible consequences of your actions. There are also things that humans do without needing to plan them every time. Once you execute a certain action with success, you are capable of repeating it based on the previous experience. But, human beings spend much of their mental activity planning their actions, and rightly so, because to do things without thinking can have disastrous consequences.
“The Season of Doing. Those that spend too much time planning, but never doing are those who are afraid to take risks. Every action brings a possibility of failure. Humans, although intelligent beings, are incapable of covering all the possibilities, which the Deities and some Divine Sons can do to perfection, including the Deities of all universes, and the Divine Sons to specific areas of their jurisdiction. Actions have a tendency to produce unexpected results that sometimes cannot be corrected. In planning and evaluating the possible results one is liable to miss something important. However, to never act for being afraid of consequences is called cowardice. Experiences, good or bad, accrue to one’s personal growth. You cannot grow if you do not have the courage to do what you think is right and necessary.
“The Season of Rest. There are beings in the universe of universes who never need to rest. They were created for the function that is in their nature and for eternity they will discharge those functions without needing rest. That is not the case with human beings. Here in the morontia worlds and even in eternity, human beings always will need and enjoy seasons of worship, rest and play. Those are things that are done for the sake of themselves. In executing assigned works you contribute to goals beyond yourself. The seasons of worship, rest and play you perform to simply enjoy them. Worship, rest and play are as important and necessary as planning and doing. So, reserve time for rest, both physical, mental and spiritual.
“Therefore, my pupil, learn to discriminate between these seasons and again listen to the words of old: ‘There is a season for everything.’ To know what to do at the right moment is something that cannot be overvalued; it is essential to your life if you want to be in charge of it as much as you can be. Although perfect knowledge in these areas is almost impossible, you do have help available to you. First, listen to the Spirit Within incessantly guiding you towards the will of God. Also seek advice that more experienced people may have and research things that puzzle you. The answer is both within and out there. I am Prolotheos, your any-time available teacher and tutor. Peace to you and all.”

Teacher: Thought Adjuster.
Subject: “Applying Truth in Your Life”
Received by Oscar.
Thought Adjuster: “The life of a person who has truly found the Father is a living illustration of that intention. There may be some who can express ideas and concepts with great ease, but the simple recitation of ideals is irrelevant if those ideals are not part of the way of living. In other words, knowledge is useless without the application of what has been learned.
“When you read the words of those who are considered to be wise or ‘new prophets’ by this world, try to discover the truth behind those words, but do not attempt to imitate the lives of those so called ‘great’ men or women. Instead find a way to apply their ideas and express them in an original fashion through your own life.
“Everything Michael expressed with His words, He also expressed with His life in the way he related to others and in the unconditional love of a Father-Brother that He offered to every person that crossed His path. This is the key of the great attractiveness of His personality: His acute interest in knowing His siblings and offering the best of Himself to them.
“Those who listen to the truth and use it in their own process of reaching perfection will always make great improvements and progress in spirit. This will reflect in other areas of their lives. Material success and riches are not a manifestation of the increased spiritual contact in the life of a person. A better measure is the peace that a person experiences in his or her life, the degree of freedom from fear and uncertainty, and the way in which the person associates with his or her neighbors.
“Look at your own life and ask yourself these questions: Have you improved? Do you live with greater peace and confidence? Are you experiencing gratefulness and higher satisfaction with your life? Are you living with increased harmony? Have you learned to accept the gifts that each day brings instead of trying to force the outcomes that your ego desires?
“How you answer these questions will show you the degree to which you have received the light of the Father who lives in you and the degree to which you are reaping the benefits of an increasingly closer relationship with your Celestial Father. The answer to these questions should also guide you to make the necessary adjustments to transform your life into the adventure of growth and love that was intended to be.”
