5052 Explanation of the awakening of the spirit.... hearing the inner word....

January 29, 1951: Book 57

Awaken the spiritual spark in you to life and you will no longer doubt that I, as father, speak to you as My children, for the spirit in you unites with the eternal father-spirit, it receives My word and passes it on to the soul, which thus now hears My word as it originates from Me. Hence the soul always hears My emanation of love which expresses itself in the form of My word; but the human being as such is not always able to understand the language of the spirit, and therefore the soul has to mentally pass on the imparted word to the human being, it has to adapt itself to his ability to (mentally) receive spiritual gift. Hence the soul can want the spirit to make itself known to it, then it will receive without restriction, but the human being need not know about it, even though he forms the soul's external cover, for it would often be incomprehensible to him, which makes the soul extraordinarily happy. But then the soul has already experienced an unusual strengthening, and it now seeks to influence the external human being in such a way that he willingly complies with the soul's desire. So then the human being's intellect withdraws and he begins to listen within himself, he tries to understand the voice of the soul and then he becomes aware of what the soul has received from the spiritual kingdom. Then spirit, soul and body are in harmony, and then the human being can receive undreamt-of wisdom because the spirit in him no longer rests once it has been awakened to life. Then the body cannot permanently remain insensitive to the divine word, it will be touched by the ray of My love and its strength will start to take effect, so that the spirit will become increasingly more alive and also the soul, which will likewise increase in light and strength, because every emanation on My part signifies light and imparts strength from Me to the human being. Then the soul will also succeed in making itself understood to the human being, in determining him, in paying attention to all impressions in the heart, and thus, if the human being listens within, he can clearly hear My word within himself and then also send it to the intellect. Then the heart and intellect will be active, then the spirit spark which has been awakened to life will have accomplished a tremendous change of nature, it will have shaped the soul and body according to its will, which is therefore My will, into a receptacle for the strength from Me, it will have determined the human being's soul.... thinking, feeling and will.... to submit itself to Me, and then the body, too, complies with My will, and thus the human being consciously becomes the recipient of My word, of My emanation of love, which is, so to speak, the elixir of life for the soul through which its eternal life is assured. Such a spiritual awakening can be accomplished according to plan if the human being's thoughts turn to Me of his own free will and he appeals to Me for strength and grace, for My spirit. Then, because the human being wants it himself, My strength will obviously flow into him, and then the soul as well as the human being's heart will be able to understand My word in an instant, because the strength of the spirit has an inconceivable effect that it can change a person into a receptacle for My spirit in an instant as soon as he only has the firm will to serve Me through this ability, thus to be redeemingly active for his fellow human beings. This will is the reason for a gift of grace of the most comprehensive kind. It allows no restrictions because My spirit is unlimited and its activity is only determined by the human being's will itself. And thus the human being's will also determines the nature of the working of the spirit and the way in which the gift of grace is to be evaluated, and in accordance with this will every person receives the gifts of the spirit in order to be a living testimony to his fellow human beings of the success of the right relationship with Me, his creator and father of eternity....

Amen
