The Doorkeeper

There is a beautiful passage in the Psalms about being a door keeper and how we appear before God in Zion. Zion is a spiritual reality of the Kingdom of God.


"They go from strength to strength, till each appears before God in Zion. Hear my prayer, O LORD God Almighty;  listen to me, O God of Jacob. Selah. Look upon our shield,  O God; look with favor on your anointed one. Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked. For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor;  no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless. O LORD Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in you." Psalm 84: 9-11

In the Aramaic translation it states:

"Blessed is the man whose help is from thee; in whose heart are thy ways. They have passed through the valley of weeping, and have made it a dwelling place; the Lawgiver shall cover it with blessings; They shall go from strength to strength; the God of gods shall be seen in Zion. O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed. For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I would choose rather to dwell in the house of my God than to dwell in the tents of the wicked. For the LORD God is our supply and our helper; the LORD will give grace and glory; no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.  O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusts in thee Psalm 84: 5-12

In the last post we talked about the spiritual law and one in ten in reference to the bankers and money changers. One in ten is also featured in this parable in the book of Luke.

The Parable of the Lost Coin 

"Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and loses one. Does she not light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, 'Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.' In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." Luke 15 8-10

Losing one is symbolic of losing a part of you. In other words in this context it relates to fragmentation. The Christ then talks about lighting the lamp and the lamp is the soul of the body, it relates to turning on the soul lamp so that you can see your way. Some people do this through soul searching and others do it by healing the self and attending a Reiki healing course to turn the light on.

Sweeping the house clean is sweeping away the cobwebs of the spiders web created by those that weave them. It can also relate to the dry dust that stops people from seeing clearly, like having dust in your eyes.  In other words it is about the purification of the lenses of consciousness to ensure that true conscious vision can come to be.

After the cleaning she finds the treasure of the lost coin in other words she finds the lost part of herself. In shamanic healing terms this is called soul retrieval and we call it soul return. It is the return to wholeness and in so doing holiness on the path home to God.

It was after I begged for no more pain and cried at the feet of the Lord that I saw Angels for the very first time. The Hebrew word for RETURN was often translated as repent and in the Christ teachings a sinner is a person that has missed the mark, they have transgressed the spiritual law in some way because they did not hit the target straight on. That is often the way with those that go their own way instead of take the spiritual path on the highway to holiness.

In the Greek the word for sinner is Hamartolos (Strongs 268) and it can mean tax collector. So no surprise then that after I begged God and his Son for help he took me away from running a business that was collecting VAT for the government.

Many people are not aware that fragments can also apply to past life experiences and that one missing coin can give them all that they seek to come to completion of self. Sometimes the fragment can be to do with the inner child from this life time, that one coin can make the difference between a short life and a long one. It can also make the difference on whether you ascend to be born again a Messiah who is sent from Zion after the birth. This one was born in Zion.

Every child is ordained with limitless potential. However, few use their abilities to reach the Kingdom of God because it is rare that a person walks that extra mile on the highway to holiness.

Ten silver coins before you get the gold one. When you have become the golden one you are told about the importance of the coin that you have become.



"One side of the coin is purity personified and the other side is all knowing." from Sacred Words

May the will of God be done
