Years ago, I had the pleasure of being in the audience when the late, great, Dr. Joseph Murphy delivered a message entitled, “Fourth Dimensional Prayer.” I recall that he spoke extremely fast and used terms that were new to me at the time, or were used in a context I was hearing for the first time. I found myself moving closer and closer to the edge of my seat as if this postured me to focus with greater clarity as I strained to understand what I was hearing.
While I do not remember the details of his message, I do remember the feeling it invoked within me. The talk lifted my consciousness to heights I had not previously experienced. When the presentation was over, I stood and applauded along with the hundreds of others in attendance. Later, when reflecting on this profound experience, I realized that, actually, the message was not new.
As I continued to reflect, I realized what I experienced was a confirmation of all that I had been hearing, reading, studying, talking about, and practicing. Every minister, teacher, practitioner, and fellow traveler with whom I associated throughout the years affirmed this same Life Principle; therefore, laying a strong foundation for this heightened state of receptivity.
My soul recognized the energy of Pure Spirit as it expressed through the speaker, and I responded with a resounding YES!” It was in this heightened state of consciousness that I was ready to embody the Truth at a higher level of understanding. It has been said, “When the student is ready, the teacher appears.”

When we are committed to a life of spiritual practice, a strong foundation of faith is established, and it seems that we are suddenly catapulted into a greater awareness of the possibilities stretched before us. It is in this cultivated readiness that the veil of separation is pierced. We become receptive to Divine Wisdom, operating through the individuals who guide us into new ways of thinking and being.
Although the Divine Presence within us transcends words and concepts, the consistent practice of loving-kindness, affirmative speech, unifying images, and meditation are the doorway to the infinite. The Divine Teacher appears when we are ready to receive the divine message from our higher consciousness.
In moments of illumination, we know what is ours to do and we begin to build structures that serve the highest good for everyone.
“I openly accept spiritual guidance from a higher power.”
