Ministering Angels
Excerpts from address 9/27/57
I am Uriel, Archangel of Ministration, and I have come to you today in response to the heart calls of certain lifestreams in embodiment here who are so sincerely interested in bringing about the eternal freedom of the planet upon which they presently abide!
It is our reason for being and service to life to minister unto any part of creation which requires assistance, especially now in the re-establishing of the natural harmony and higher vibratory action of the Earth itself, as well as of the vehicles of expression used by Earth's evolutions at this time. This will culminate in the fulfilling of the Divine Plan of perfection eventually manifesting through individual lifestreams, elemental life evolving here and through the Inner Spheres of the very planet itself.
Beloved ones, I might say that the activity of ministration to which we so lovingly dedicate our lives, represents a great deal more than the average individual thinks when they either refer to or contemplate upon a Ministering Angel.
In the first place, within the Ministering Angel there is the WILL to serve until the entire world of the lifestream to which that angel has dedicated himself, is in complete harmony. Now, there are those Ministering Angels who deal with just one lifestream at a time and even that is quite an expenditure of time and energy, quite enough when one considers that the lifestream needing such assistance has built the causes of their distress (the transmuting of which now needs the angel's help) for millions of years in the pursuit of what is called "happiness"!
You see to be allowed to render this service that Ministering Angel must personally desire to do so. That angel is a being of free-will and so must offer to serve. Every individual present here today and every member of the human race still unascended has such a particular Ministering Angel who has volunteered to serve from the beginning of your evolution here, staying with them until their journey is completed.
Angel Develops Discrimination
Next, that Ministering Angel has to develop WISDOM in dealing with you because, first of all, it had to get acquainted with you and your world. Since you, too, are a being of freewill, that angel did not know ahead of time just what momentums you were going to develop which would give the angel an opportunity to expand the light. As you were developing your tendencies the angel had no way of knowing just how you would react to ministration, for there are many individuals whose natures tend to repel ministration, if and when they are cognizant of the fact that it is being given.
So, the discriminating faculties of the Ministering Angel develop through association with a lifestream. In some cases, that angel learned that it would be best to minister to the individual, even to the distresses thereof, (emotional, mental, etheric and physical) while the person slept so that the conscious mind would not feel the angel's current of healing energy!
On the other hand, where there was some cooperation between the lifestream and the Ministering Angel, the assistance could be given all during the day, as it was with beloved Mother Mary and many more of those who not only consciously cognized and reverenced the Angelic Host, but consciously welcomed their service as well.
Then the Ministering Angel had to expand the feeling of Divine LOVE for the Immortal Three-fold Flame of God which held the Divine Pattern of Perfection within the heart of the lifestream. The angel had to develop a tremendous momentum of that love which, all through the ages, has given and still gives the infinite patience to continue to serve a personality which is so often resentful and rebellious against what that one considers an interference with the use of freewill, even resenting the help of the angel who can see far ahead and see what distresses will be the lot of the individual should one be allowed to follow their own course of destructive tendencies. So, these Ministering Angels have developed tremendous momentums of God patience while dealing with unascended humanity.
Even in the outer world experience, you know what a feeling of rejection or repellent force will do to your own sense of joy in service. So, in a beautiful schoolroom at Inner Levels, these Ministering Angels are taught how to draw and hold these feelings of Divine compassion, patience and understanding. Here they learn that the outer selves of those they try to serve might react to their help in many, many ways. However, they are also taught that their responsibility is to be able to hold steady our beautiful Flame of Peace (the gift and activity of the Sixth Ray) and wherever and whenever possible, to pass that Flame through the energies of the lifestream they are assisting, compelling God's peace there to manifest.
Angels Hold Immaculate Concept
Now, too, the Ministering Angels have to remember the activity of the Fourth Ray, sustaining within themselves a consciousness of the PURITY of the Immaculate Concept for the individual they are serving, and not be caught up in a desire to change the subject of their devoted service by ministering to another. You see, sometimes, when a joyous and wholly free angel from our realm sees some very fine soul stand before the Lords of Karma, offering to become a Guardian Spirit to those evolving here, it is very easy for that angel then to say: "I will gladly go with that one and minister to him. I will stay with this one until the end of the journey, for there is a magnificent Causal Body (the gathered momentums of one's accumulated good up to that time) and there is much opportunity for great service". Then, of course, always eager to have this assistance for a lifestream, the Great Law accepts the offer of the angel.
But, after several millions of years of such service to that lifestream, the Ministering Angel still must be able to sustain the original enthusiasm for service to that one with the beautiful Causal Body, holding the Immaculate Concept for this ward, hoping for the eventual manifestation of that perfection through a physical form, as well as the other three lower bodies which, too, have disintegrated a little from the magnificence of the light body in which the angel had first seen that one at Inner Levels. Here, the activities of RECONSECRATION by the beloved Raphael plays such an important part in sustaining the constancy of that angel and keeping the feelings enthusiastic, with energies buoyant and eager to serve. The only time these Ministering Angels have some temporary release from the lifestream they are serving is during the time when that one might be in the "sleepers realm" for some time between embodiments. Then, they may have a substitute to guard and minister to the etheric body for them, while the soul self sleeps.
This will give you some idea of the tremendous task of these Ministering Angels because, as soon as the soul is conscious again and the thinking and feeling worlds are active, thus creating karma, it is the responsibility of the Ministering Angel to be on hand to give that soul assistance, trying constantly to hold as much peace as possible for him. These Ministering Angels also need CONCENTRATION. Do you think it is easy to work almost continuously with one lifestream for literally millions of years? Think on this! It is a case of voluntary imprisonment through love, which has little parallel.
You see, while the physical body is asleep, the consciousness of the individual is still functioning somewhere! If that consciousness is earthbound and (in the past while discarnates were still allowed in Earth's atmosphere) prowling around in old castles or places of former abode in which the lifestream had been previously interested, if the consciousness is having certain experiences in the psychic realm (discordant activities) that consciousness is creating destructive karma. So the Ministering Angel is obligated by Law to accompany such a soul and, at every opportunity, this angel projects a Light Ray into the consciousness of the one being assisted, with the hope that perhaps it will help him to look higher and desire more light.
Natural Conductors of Peace and Healing
These Ministering Angels are natural conductors of both PEACE and HEALING but it is sometimes difficult to get humanity quiet enough in their thoughts and feelings to receive these gifts. Even when the physical body sleeps at night, the aura about it is still swinging around; the soul is darting here and there in various directions, always in search of some sort of happiness. It is part of the service of this Ministering Angel of the Sixth Ray to quiet the feelings, mind, memory and flesh body and bring them PEACE.
Finally, the Ministering Angels are very powerfully developed along the Ray of INVOCATION. Of course, they have constant access to all the Virtues of the Godhead and, because they have the God-gift of Inner Sight, they know just what is required by the lifestream whom they have offered to serve. Therefore, from time to time, as the Cosmic Law permits (according to the Karmic obligations of the soul concerned) these angels do invoke the help of the ascended beings and powers of Light to draw the particular assistance which that lifestream requires at the moment.
Beloved ones, there are many blessings available to humanity which they could have and enjoy if they only knew of and would call for them. I know, because in the activities of Ministration, we work with the Silent Watchers over every city, state and nation, as well as with the Silent Watcher of the Planet itself.
As you can easily see, the Ministering Angels are always endeavoring to draw your consciousness to something which is constructive and hold it there. That is part of their power of concentration, as well as their desire to bring you peace. This ministration is our great joy to give to the Earth.
Now as we previously said, these angels of whom we have spoken have offered to serve just one lifestream. In my capacity as Archangel of Ministration, I have offered to serve the entire Planet Earth and all the lifestreams who would ever take embodiment upon her, all elemental life and every living thing; until the substance of Earth itself and the forces of nature should be restored to Divine Harmony and Eternal Perfection.
