“Worship God; ye have none other God beside Him”

What does this title mean?  How do we worship?  What does it look like? What is God?  What will worshiping God bring us?  What do we want anyways?  What are we LOOKING for?

Speaking from my own experience, I have realized over time what I want. I want relief from my own constant outward search for Love, Truth, Acceptance, Abundance, Guidance, Certainty, Righteousness, Happiness & Beauty.  The world is not going to directly bring these things to me. I’ve tried, and the result has been fleeting; leading to disappointment, fear of loss, suffering and more searching. So, I’ve learned that the world is not my source of all that I am looking for. What the world is, is a reflection of the Divine, but if I don’t know that “I am the Divine”, then it will only reflect who I ‘claim’ myself to be. If I claim myself to be lacking love, that is what I will find: a lack of love. If I claim myself to be not good enough, then that is what I will find: reasons why I’m not good enough.  I will never find & know the Light of Worthiness, Truth, Acceptance, Guidance, Righteousness, Abundance and Beauty in the world if I agree to be lacking them. So, in pausing this outward search, and turning quiet for a moment, I realize that all I have ever searched for, I already have. I am Divine. I HAVE all that is Divine.  These eternal gems can only be found right here and right now within my own Inner Being; in my own Divine River of Light.  I define God as that Divine River of Light, and I am an embodied spark of that River.

In Baha’u’llah’s book, “The Book of Certitude”, he speaks of the appearance of an Eternal Being, who came after Noah, the holy person of Salih. This man said to his people, “Oh my people, Worship God, ye have none other God beside Him”. This was His way of summoning the people to the ‘river of everlasting life’, but the people did not understand what they were being asked to do. They did not understand that they were being asked to return to their own Divine Essence, within their own Hearts, to connect with that part of themselves that lacks nothing.  It would have made more sense to have said, “Oh People, devote your  hearts and minds to your own Inner Light. It is a vertical line that connects you with the Higher Realms, with your Light Team, on the level of your soul & your body’s spirit.  Remain in this vertical connection at all times, stay authentic, and model integrity. You have no other Source to all that you search for but your own Source; your own Divine Line.”

When I reconnect with my inner Divine Line, I remember I am safe.  I call on my Angels, Archangels, Spirit Guides, Advisors, Councillors, and all Beings of the Light. It’s time to be authentic. I can unload all my sorrows, my shame, my grief, my losses, my anger, my fears here. I allow full expression of myself.  I have loving permission to yell, to cry, to scream, to wimper, to mourn, to be everything I can’t be in the world. After the veils have lifted, I return to a loving, peaceful state of consciousness.  I call this the City of God.  It is full of Light.  It sparkles & radiates celestial beauty all around. I ask to simply feel a deeper and deeper sense of gratitude for all that I am and all the assistance I am receiving. I am welcomed here, and honored here.  Together, we are One, and we are happy.  We feel a sense of communion, fulfillment, contentment, and wonderment.  There is relaxation, and total acceptance here.  It’s full of mysticism, enchantment, and enlightenment.  We acknowledge our Divinity, our sense of Harmony, Grace and Perfection. It is in this Placeless Place, this Sanctified Sanctuary, where I truly belong, and where my Heart’s desires originate.  I have no other wish than to know who I am here.  As I remember that I have everything within my own Divine Line, and I am in need of nothing, then all that is Loving and Peaceful will effortlessly and automatically trickle down and show up in my physical world.  I need have no worries, no anxiety, no concerns as my life unfolds.  To the degree that I have claimed & embraced all that I am here in the formless, to that degree I will experience all that I am in form.  It’s up to me.

So, in conclusion, this is how I worship God. I have none other God beside Him.

May you all find your way back to your own river of everlasting Life…. blessings from the Upper Realms.
