The Rocky Mountains are more than a breathtaking landscape. In the Teachings of the Ascended Masters, the mountains are also living focuses of light, protection, and divine purpose.

God Tabor, known as the “God of the Mountains,” is the ascended master who governs the mountain ranges of North and Central America. His service is closely connected with the power of nature, the protection of the mountain ranges, and the radiation of the first ray—the blue flame of God’s will, faith, protection, and divine direction. The Ascended Master Encyclopedia describes God Tabor as working closely with the God of Gold and notes that his fragrance is the essence of pine.

A Retreat Above Colorado Springs

God Tabor has two retreats in North America’s Rocky Mountains. One of these retreats was opened on April 14, 1968, in the front range of the Rocky Mountains above Colorado Springs. This retreat is described as a focus of the will of God, forming an arch of blue flame from the Temple of Good Will in Darjeeling.

From this retreat, God Tabor radiates the protection of the first ray through the mountain ranges of North and Central America, with a special protective action for the emerging Christ consciousness in the sons of God, the youth, and the elemental kingdom.

For students of the Ascended Masters in Colorado, this gives the mountains a deeper spiritual meaning. The peaks, forests, valleys, and skies become reminders of the strength of God’s will and the living protection that can be invoked through prayer, decrees, and the spoken Word.

The Blue Flame and the Protection of the Mountains

The first ray is often associated with faith, protection, strength, divine will, and the power to govern conditions according to God’s plan. Through God Tabor’s retreat above Colorado Springs, the blue flame is anchored as a spiritual focus for the mountains and the land.

This is especially meaningful for those who live in Colorado, where the presence of the mountains is part of daily life. Their majesty can remind us to stand firm in faith, to call for divine protection, and to align our lives with the will of God.

God Tabor’s service also reminds us that nature is not separate from spiritual life. The elemental kingdom, the mountains, the forests, the waters, and the atmosphere are all part of the larger field of divine creation. When we pray for balance in the elements, protection for the land, and harmony in climate and weather conditions, we are participating in a sacred work of cooperation with heaven.

God Tabor and the Students of Denver

In The “I AM” Discourses, Saint Germain spoke of God Tabor’s joy in the calls of the students of Denver. He said that God Tabor rejoiced in the accomplishments of the children of Earth and encouraged students to call to him to govern conditions.

This teaching gives Denver students a special point of connection with God Tabor. It reminds us that our calls, decrees, and prayers can have a real spiritual purpose—not only for ourselves, but for the environment, the community, the weather, the elements, and the spiritual protection of the land.

God Tabor’s work invites us to become more conscious of the power of prayer in relation to nature. The mountains stand as witnesses to the will of God, and through spiritual practice, we can call for greater harmony, moisture, balance, protection, and right conditions according to the needs of the environment.

A Spiritual Reflection for Colorado

To live near the Rocky Mountains is to be surrounded by a daily reminder of strength, endurance, and divine majesty. The mountains speak silently of God’s power. They lift the eyes upward. They invite the soul to rise.

God Tabor’s presence over the Rockies reminds us that Colorado is not only a place of natural beauty, but also a place of spiritual opportunity. Here, the blue flame of protection and divine will may be invoked for families, communities, youth, elemental life, and the future of the land.

As we look to the mountains, we can remember God Tabor and call for the will of God to be made manifest in our lives, our cities, our state, and our nation.

Closing Thought

The mountains are a living sermon of strength, silence, and divine will. Through God Tabor, we are reminded that the beauty of Colorado is also a call to prayer, protection, and spiritual responsibility.
