1110 The power of the spirit....

September 24, 1939: Book 20

The power of the spirit is unimaginable, it works mightily and unlimitedly, because it is nothing of itself, but everything from God.... It is invincible, it rules the heights and the depths, it is present everywhere and draws all wisdom from God, it is eternally unchanging.... it is the eternal divinity's expression of will.... it is the divine power itself expressed. And therefore it cannot pass away, it cannot diminish, nor can it ever change or work differently than is the will of God.... If the human being is able to regocnize the truth of this then all doubt remains far from him, for he then willingly submits to this divine strength and is seized by it, and he can now likewise only fulfil God's will. The power of the spirit works in all those who believe and are active in love. Yet those who do not have faith and are devoid of all love are guided by their own will, and their own will.... without faith and love.... opposes the divine will and therefore the divine spirit of love.... One's own will obeys the whisperings of those beings who likewise let their own will rule on earth as well as now in the beyond.... These are imperfect souls who did not regocnize the divine spirit and thus stood outside of its effect on earth and now exert their influence from the beyond on people who are of the same mind.... who live without faith and without love.... However, the divine spiritual strength shares itself with all those who regocnize God and love Him, who are willing to believe and love and want to approach the eternal deity. The spark of God in man.... the awakened spirit of God.... establishes the connection with the elemental force, insofar as the human being strives of his own free will to ascend.... it guides thinking correctly, it determines all actions, and thus the power of the spirit is already at work and makes itself increasingly more noticeable the more intimately the human being enters into union with his creator, and the power of the spirit can express itself so inconceivably that the human being can accomplish things which appear incomprehensible to the world. And it is therefore extremely important to shape his life on earth such that the strength of the spirit can effectively express itself in the human being, then everything that previously appeared to be an obstacle can be overcome, for the divine spiritual strength is not subject to any laws, it works in complete unison with the divine will; it is the emanation of this divine will itself, and thus the human being will be able to control everything if he utilizes the strength of the spirit by living in faith and love and desiring divine blessings....

Amen
