0571 Power of God.... revelations in the heart.... instrument of God's will....
September 5, 1938: Book 12
You will find enough divine strength within you to achieve everything you ask for in prayer. Behold, My strength fills every heart that seeks and loves Me.... No being passes through the valley of the earth harmed when love for Me, its creator and father, has awakened in it. And this grace is the overflowing of My strength into the human heart.... Every thought you send to Me is now already proof of this strength, which expresses itself in such a way that everything that comes from Me longs for Me again.... And thus your heart harbours an endless number of revelations, for they are already written into it by Me and come to your awareness through your ever new will to serve Me. The power of God is likewise expressed in these revelations, for the human being is unable to penetrate My truths from within.... he is unable to hear My word if the power of the spirit does not permeate him. And so it is entirely up to you whether you are willing to serve or whether you want to close your ear to My word in sluggishness of spirit.... So you are only allowed to want and you are in full possession of divine power.... It is still up to you to do or not to do the duty that has become dear to you.... but the days will come when, as a faithful servant of God, you will have to carry out God's will.... For once you have passed the test as such, you will willingly give yourself as an instrument and then act on My behalf as My representative on earth, as it were. And then your will, which you have subordinated to Me, will only ever have to act according to the highest commandment. The opposing power is inherent in all matter, and everything that persists in love for matter will be subjugated by it.... But spiritual power is born out of love for God, it revitalizes, awakens, ignites and strengthens everything it flows through.... If this divine power is to truly enliven the human being, he must completely free himself from material thinking and entrust himself in all devotion to the divine father's heart, then those opposing forces will be completely eliminated and only the divine power will flow through the earthly child and have such a powerful effect in it, that a noticeable progress in the spiritual is achieved and no inhibitions oppose the so spiritualized, but the heart longs more and more to the father and therefore strives ever more eagerly for the union with the spirit of God, and so you will also become aware into which spiritual sphere your will places you.... In a short time you will not be able to live without the power of God, for it is lost in matter.... but eternally this divine power permeates everything spiritual and can therefore only be granted to the spiritually striving.... Therefore, whatever spiritual good you ask for will be granted to you in full, for your prayer is conditioned by love for God.... and God returns this love a thousandfold, and with His elemental power He will strengthen all those who love Him and long for Him....
Amen
