3267 Admonition to workers in the vineyard....

September 24, 1944: Book 42

And everyone who is willing to serve Me will be accepted as a labourer in My vineyard.... But great work still lies ahead of you. People no longer recognize the school of the spirit which earth is meant to be for them, and therefore you should take them into your training, you should inform them of their earthly task before the end, you should make it clear to them that they have to fulfil their purpose on earth and that otherwise they will have to face bitter consequences; you should lovingly admonish them to seriously consider their souls, to take their earthly task seriously and to make good use of the time they still have; you should encourage them to work with love and make this the most important thing for them and constantly mention My love which tries everything to win your souls for the spiritual kingdom. And so if you are diligently active for Me I will not withhold the blessing from you which lies in every good work.... I will give you strength to speak in My name, I will guide you towards those who need your help, I will impart wisdom to you which will make you capable of working in My vineyard, and I will protect you against all dangers of body and soul. For I need you as My servants on earth.... A time is coming when ever less of My word will be heeded, when faith in Me and My word will become ever weaker, when the world will increasingly come to the fore and all spiritual striving will be successfully suppressed because people themselves are lukewarm and sluggish and in their weakness of will allow themselves to be determined by the forces which want to displace Me. And only a few carry Me in their hearts, and therefore only a few are willing to stand up for Me before the world, to want to transfer their faith to their fellow human beings and thus to fight for Me and My teaching.... And I remember these few with all love, and I will bless their activity on earth. For they are the ones through whom I can now work Myself so that My word will find entry amongst people, they are the ones who are now active for Me, whose will I can direct because they have voluntarily subordinated it to Me.... And I constantly feed these few with My word, I prepare them to be My workers so that they can then also successfully carry out their work. I guide their thoughts correctly, I put the right words into their mouths and constantly give them strength so that they will persevere until I Myself come at the time of harvest. And anyone who thus wants to serve Me will be accepted to work for My spiritual kingdom, because this work is the only important one in the coming time. Do not worry and ask yourselves which work you should put first, but do what I tell you to do.... work for Me and My kingdom.... Leave the earth and its demands unnoticed, for time is pressing and every day is to be used because the end is near.... And therefore let yourselves be guided and don't resist Me but act where your heart urges you to. For it is My voice which the heart makes known to you. Do not become lukewarm and sluggish but remain eager in My service, and work while it is still day, for soon the night will come for many.... And so that you may still win souls and save them from this night, you should be eagerly active for Me and My kingdom....

Amen
