5466 Testing the strength of the divine Word in adversity....

August 20, 1952: Book 60

You are all to test the power of My Word if you are in trouble, if you are burdened by spiritual or earthly worries. My Word will always be the right help for you, it will give you comfort and strength, it will lift you up, it will be a counsellor on Whom you can truly rely, for I Myself Am with you in the Word and I shall never leave you without help, without advice and without strength. My Word will also show you the path you should take in order to get rid of your worries, through My Word I will also tell you when and where you are doing wrong and how you can get back on the right path if you have left it. My Word is always the bond between us, and thus, if you accept My Word within yourselves, you will draw Me to yourselves and then you will also present your heart's desire to Me, I can gain insight into your world of thoughts because you allow Me to be present within you as soon as you listen to My Word in your desire for Me. Put yourselves to the test if you are burdened with all kinds of worries.... Take refuge in My Word and the burden will fall away from you, your heart will become light and free if you sincerely desire that I speak to you Myself. The power of My Word is strong enough to lift the burdens that weigh you down. My Word is My address to you, which will truly touch you such that you will be rid of all worries and anxiety, you just have to let it have an effect on you, you have to let Me speak to you, because I would like to give you comfort and strength at all times but can only do so where I am approached vividly for it. However, anyone who takes refuge in My Word in the adversity of body and soul demonstrates faith in My love and My power to be able to help him and he shall also be helped. Let Me speak to you again and again in the Word so that I can now have an effect on you with My grace and My strength. The bond you enter into with Me in the desire to hear Me Myself in the Word shall also enable you to grasp everything I want to tell you, you will recognise your faults, you will recognise the cause of your worries and My will shall become apparent to you as to how you can fight your faults and weaknesses.... I will help you in word and deed to become masters of your worries, for all evil will only come upon you so that you take refuge in Me and turn to Me for help and listen to Me when I speak to you.... I Myself Am with you in the Word and therefore My Word shall fill you with strength as soon as you need it....

Amen
