1125 Spirit and strength.... prayer in spirit and in truth....

October 4, 1939: Book 20

As soon as you receive My spirit you will also receive My strength. The epitome of My love for you is to help you in all tribulations which, however, I cannot spare you as long as you have not yet completely regocnized Me.... And I only wait for your call in order to be able to stand by you in all adversity. If you accept Me into your existence then the suffering will also have fulfilled its purpose and I will take it away from you, and if you then call upon Me in spirit and in truth you will be seized by My spirit and given all My strength. And if you now believe and your heart willingly opens itself to this power.... if you trust Me and thus hand yourselves over to Me fully believingly and willingly so that I will help you, you will also feel the strength within yourselves and become aware of My spirit.... Yet you must overcome your timidity and doubtfulness. I have been your father from the beginning and all My love belongs to you who have emerged from Me; and I long for My children to return to the father's house and if you do not resist Me I will draw you to Myself.... Yet you must believe in the father's love for His children.... I am with you and must use all means to bring you up as believing, fully trusting children so that you will take refuge in all devotion to My fatherly heart in every adversity and tribulation of life. And thus you may only ever call upon Me and expect My help, and My strength will flow through you and you will overcome all hardship which I have to endure for the salvation of your soul....

Amen
