1488 Strength from God....

June 23, 1940: Book 24

What the earth child receives is strength from God, for the beings of light now transmit this strength, which they previously received, to the beings who desire and gratefully accept it. And strength from God is a particle of Himself.... power from God is spiritual substance, which again increases the spiritual in man.... power from God is the link between God and His creatures.... and to be allowed to receive this strength is an unimaginable grace, for God Himself and His love express themselves in every gift of strength that makes the earthly child happy. The strength from God has to be desired in order to be received; it does not come to the human being unsolicited, and therefore the beings of light first try to awaken the feeling of weakness in the human being so that he can then ask for strength and thus receive it.... After praying for strength, the person must open his heart and thus be ready to receive it. He must consciously receive the divine influx into himself, he must be full of love and full of desire for God and His strength, he must prepare himself so that God can work on him, then every influx of strength can penetrate the heart unhindered and this will be felt as strength of faith and will, as increased love, increased knowledge and unrestricted devotion to God.... And when the human being realizes that he came forth from God, that he is guided by God's love, that he can achieve incredible things in faith in God and that he can shape himself in accordance with divine will, then he will know his purpose of earthly life, he will live in love and every thought will be directed towards his creator. And all this is strength from God, which has an inconceivable effect because it emanates directly from God and is imparted to the desiring human being through beings of light. This power is nothing earthly tangible, nothing earthly to be proven and nothing temporally limited, but it is only pure spiritual product, which is only felt by the spirit, therefore rejected by worldly people as something completely foreign, as fantasy. And yet this power is the most precious thing on earth that a person can acquire, for it flows from the divine source of grace and flows unmeasured to the person who thirsts for it. It is the power from God His spirit, which introduces man to all knowledge. This spirit imparts the divine word to him as the greatest gift of grace, so that the living water flows from this source, which in turn is only the expression of strength of divine love.... "Whoever drinks of this water will never thirst for eternity...." Thus the lord promises eternal refreshment to the earthly child who receives His word, and therefore the strength that flows from His word must outlast all earthly things and have an effect in eternity.... And the father in heaven extends this unimaginable grace to those who open their hearts and grant Him access in the word....For the word of God is eternal.... it will never pass away, for divine power is eternally indestructible and should always and constantly be desired for the uplifting of the spirit and for the fulfilment of everything that God demands of people. For God is a God of love Who gives His living creations the strength to fulfil what He requires, and people should thank this God of love without ceasing....

Amen
