5168 Prayer for grace and strength, for illumination of the spirit....

July 10, 1951: Book 58

May your prayer always be and remain: "Father, fill us with your spirit, with your strength and your grace...." With this request you testify to your spiritual poverty, that you admit your weakness and ask Me for love, for strength and grace and for enlightenment through the spirit. And I will hear you, for I hear and listen to every prayer concerning your spiritual sustenance and help you to ascend. As soon as you are concerned about your soul's well-being you will also have grasped the meaning and purpose of earthly life, and then it will be easy for Me to give you what you desire without endangering your free will. Then you will be aware of your still imperfect state and seek to remedy it of your own free will. You come to Me for My help and you will truly be helped, for My heart rejoices at your desire for Me and I can think of you like little children who, in their weakness and ignorance, need to be cared for and taught so that they will grow and prosper and walk the right path.... so that they enter the path that leads to Me, to the height, to the light. Power, grace and illumination of the spirit.... if you ask for these, you will possess everything.... My love and mercy and complete clarity about your earthly task and its solution. You enter the state of realization and then walk along with sight where you were previously still blind and therefore also still wretched. If My flow of strength touches you, you will also feel My love for you, which powerfully attracts you. I love you even though you are still imperfect and therefore constantly convey My grace to you in order to let you become perfect if you use this grace. And you will do so because you also appeal to Me for enlightenment of spirit and therefore most clearly recognize what you lack, how you should live and which path you must take in order to become blissfully happy. You will achieve everything if you ask Me for strength and grace, for enlightenment through the spirit. For then your heart will already be open to the flow of strength of love, My spirit can be active in you, for you no longer prevent it from doing so because you open yourselves to My flow of grace and love and it inevitably becomes effective in a willing earthly child turned towards Me. I truly love you mightily and yet My grace has to take hold of you first, because due to your imperfect state you are not worthy to receive proofs of love from Me and therefore I have to grant grace in return for justice. I must draw you to Me since you will not come of your own accord, yet you yourselves can decide whether you accept My grace.... I don't force you to follow Me, but My grace has a mighty effect on the one who offers no resistance. And every request for grace is a giving up of resistance.... Bear in mind that I can then shower you abundantly if you demonstrate through your prayer the will to accept and utilize the blessings from Me.... Cry out to Me for strength and grace and the outpouring of the spirit upon you.... Then you will have true humility, for you feel that you are in need of these gifts. And to the humble I bestow My grace.... He calls upon Me and has already come considerably closer to Me in his humility because he has established the relationship between child and child which includes love for Me and humility towards Me and shapes the human being such that I can shower him abundantly with My grace and My strength and My spirit.... which now becomes active in him and guides him into all truth....

Amen
