5088 Exhortation not to forget God.... coming need....

March 19, 1951: Book 57

The call from above goes out to all of you: Do not forget Me so that you will not be helpless and alone when the great adversity comes upon you. For in this adversity no one earthly will be able to help you, then you will only be dependent on My help, yet you will not call upon Him Who could help you because you have forgotten Him. But to forget Me means to be the servant of the one who is My adversary. For if you forget Me, My adversary has won you over and you must be in bondage to him. Yet he cannot help you in the great coming adversity and therefore you will be lonely and forsaken and inevitably abandoned to ruin if you don't still turn to the one Who gave you life in the last hour. For the adversity will become so severe and your helplessness in the face of it can make you remember Me, for I Myself come close to you through this adversity in order to remind you of Me. Nature will speak to you with a voice of thunder, its roaring and roaring will cause you to be terrified, yet you will not be able to escape, death will threaten you from all sides and people will not be able to help and save you from your situation, which I did not put you into without intention. You shall be reminded of Me again, Whom you well know but have forgotten.... you shall also recognize My reign and activity in the elements of nature.... You shall experience Me, for it is I Myself Who speaks to you through the elements of nature.... And you must listen to this voice, and good for him who recognizes it as My voice.... good for him who feels himself addressed and allows My voice to penetrate his heart.... good for him who does not let Me speak in vain but goes within himself and converses with Me.... I will teach him with love, I will reproach him for his sin, for having gone without Me in this world.... but I will also accept him into My little flock and he will never regret having followed My powerful words from on high.... Then you will firmly stand by Me and My adversary will no longer have power over you, for those who have then found their way to Me will also remain faithful to Me, they will never be alone and abandoned, and even the adversity will be bearable for them, because I, Who send them upon you humans for your own sake, can also remedy them again when the time is right....

Amen
