The Angelic Host: by

Beloved Kuthumi

Any Angel is a self-conscious intelligent Being created by God, just as you have been, to fulfill a specific destiny, service and activity. The Angels are primarily Beings of Feeling, although they naturally have an intelligent mind consciousness, their service is to absorb, condense, transfer and generally radiate the spiritual feelings of God and the Messengers of God whom they serve.

The feeling world (emotional body) of the Angel is sensitive in the extreme. Natural proximity to the aura of the Father-Mother God or to the activities, of the Sacred Fire in the Temples of Light fills the aura and individual sphere of the Angels with a similar quality of radiation. These lovely Beings disport themselves in the virtues of the Godhead and become impregnated with the same virtues through such proximity. The Angels are not required to carry the Spiritual radiation they have absorbed to the spheres below the one in which they were born.

As the Angel matures and develops, he desires himself to be of service to the God who made him. He then begins a course of spiritual training under the Great Archangel Jophiel which training prepares him for such spiritual service.

The Angel must learn how to sustain the radiation of some specific virtue. He must hold that quality of feeling until he is directed to release the essence of the virtue (the sweet anointing from above) into the world and atmosphere of some individual who requires assistance.

For instance, if the Angel desires to become one of the Legions of Faith in God, he is assigned by Lord Jophiel to a Temple in the first Realm under one of the Directing Angels of Lord Michael's Legions. Here he enters the already established momentum of Cosmic Truth and feels himself the pulsation, power and vibration of Faith. He learns to absorb from the great Cosmic Heart of Lord Michael the gift of sustained Faith.

Then he passes outside the periphery of his teacher's aura and endeavors to hold through his own consciousness the Faith he enjoyed so freely in the safe compass of another's momentum of Faith. Here his strength is measured. Gradually, he is able to sustain the quality of Faith for longer and longer periods of time, as he passes further and further from the aura of his teacher.

Then, at the direction of the Messengers of Faith, he is sent on a mission with a Great Guardian Angel and many other neophyte Angels. They carry Faith into this physical world where so much misery, disillusionment, unhappiness and distress abide. The Angels enter the auras of distraught men, women and children and radiate the Faith they have learned to sustain, giving new hope and courage to the hopeless. Just as a radiator emits a comforting warmth into the atmosphere, so does the Angel radiate a pressure of Faith (or whatever virtue is required most) into the spirits of men. When his gift of radiation has performed its service he returns with his Superior to again embody the virtue of the Godhead and wait further assignments in his name. Even one individual who believes in the existence of the Angelic Host is a joy to Heaven. Such an one opens the door through the psychic and astral shell of skepticism, agnosticism and unbelief.

This allows the precious virtues which the Angels bring to be radiated through an entire community, rendering a service unparalleled to the dispirited sons and daughters of humanity. Belief in the existence of the Angelic Host is one of the greatest ways of magnetizing their presence in one's aura, home, business and environment..

Cultivation of feelings of harmony which remind these Beings of their Celestial Home also draws them close. Beautiful flowers, orderliness, harmonious music and floral scents are all magnetizing activities for the members of this Kingdom. Conscious invocation of the Angelic Host (which is part of the activity of Beloved Master Saint Germain) always brings Hosts of this Kingdom into the group activities where such acknowledgement of their reality is made and invitation given to their cooperative service.

The activity of the Seventh Ray is to develop an affinity among the Kingdoms of Angels, human beings and elementals. The Angelic Host may be classified into three distinct types of Messengers and Servants of Almighty God. The Seraphim are the great Messengers of the Suns of the System. They can and do travel in full freedom from one Solar System to another and in form, they are extremely beautiful, delicate of feature and very aesthetic. The Cherubim who embody the Nature of God, bathe in the spiritual Aura of the Universal First Cause or in the radiation of any of the Temples of their choice in any one of the Seven Spheres. Then, when they have learned to sustain in their feelings a particular Virtue, They are directed to carry that feeling forth and radiate it to and for the blessing of all in the Sphere to which they are sent to serve.

In general the Angelic Host are composed of those Angels from the Spiritual Courts of every Divine Being and their service is determined by the Divine Being whom they have offered to assist - such as the Guardian Angels of individuals and homes, the Protection Angels of Lord Michael - the Healing Angels of Beloved Jesus and Mother Mary, etc.

We know Angels are primarily beings of feeling! Therefore, intellectual accretion (even spiritual knowledge) does not magnetize their Presence. They are drawn by the sweet essence of Love, which is emanated from the heart of humankind. As Angels do not cognize form, it is not the empty shell of thought creations but rather the perfume, color and Virtue of God-feelings which magnetize them. Thus, when a Planet (still in form) ceases to radiate Love the Angels recede!

When a Planet together with its evolutions, learns to radiate Love, the Angels come ever closer into association with the evolutions thereof, thus creating the cooperation so much desired to enable Perfection to be expressed upon that Planet. The "Open Doors" through which they come into the atmosphere of any Planet is the feeling there from of Love of God, the Universal "I AM" Presence and for the Angels themselves.

If it were not for the direction of the great Archangels and the Archaii together with the Love of Sanat Kumara and those who cognized the Angelic Hosts upon the Earth through the ages... the Angels should have long since returned to their Heavenly Home.... Then the Earth itself eventually would have ceased to be and her evolutions would have been thus deprived of a planetary home upon which to fulfill their Divine Plan. Learn the Nature of the Angelic Host, accept their help, serve with them consciously in Love.

They are powerful Allies! They are essential Beings in the redemptive processes now going on in Earth's atmosphere and you cannot be urged too strongly to help us in expanding the acceptance of their Presence as part of the Earth's redemptive process at this time!
