2295 Teaching after the disaster.... signs and wonders....

April 10, 1942: Book 32

It is no easy task to lead fellow human beings to faith if they have already completely surrendered to it. And yet the attempt must be made so that all people are once again forcefully made aware of the dreadful consequences of an earthly life without faith in a just, wise, omnipotent and extremely loving creator. Even people who have so far maintained their traditional faith will abandon it in the face of the great natural disaster and its consequences. And then it is absolutely necessary to speak of God's love, which had to intervene for the sake of human souls, and of the immense danger if man's thoughts and endeavours are only directed towards matter. Initially people will still be allowed to speak but then very strict regulations will stop the teaching activity, and this will be the time of apostasy from God and people will find little ear if they want to re-establish the old faith. And therefore God will endow His servants with great power and signs and wonders will occur in order to strengthen the believers and to lead the unbelievers back to faith. And therefore do not become fearful or of little faith, but build firmly on God. For God knows about this time and He has prepared everything so that you, who want to serve Him, can recognize from the course of world events when the hour is to be expected which will bring the decision about the life and death of the individual.... about life and death, i.e. faith or faithlessness.... It is no longer a long period of time that God gives, for the day is approaching that will set the world on edge. And after this catastrophe humanity will be more receptive and more willing to accept the truth from God if it is offered to it. And then begins the earthly task of those who want to serve God. Then they should preach and not allow themselves to be held back by the voices of violence. For God offers them favours in extraordinary measure, so that man can carry out much, as soon as he is only willing to help suffering mankind. And so the teachers will be able to prove their words and deeds, for humanity will no longer believe words alone unless it sees proof. Prepare yourselves for this time so that you do not weaken and betray the lord.... You will truly need great strength for this, but if you connect with God in prayer beforehand, strength will come to you when you need it most, for God does not abandon those who want to work for Him. And thus He will also bless your endeavour and increase your will, and thus strengthened you will be able to resist the battle of the spirits and your work will not remain without success....

Amen
