5708 Deciding for the right lord....

June 26, 1953: Book 62

Choose your lord as long as you walk the earth, but choose rightly.... For the one you choose will also prepare your fate in eternity. Therefore this decision on earth is very significant for you and yet no-one else can make it for you, you must choose the lord yourselves to whom you want to hand yourselves over for eternity, and therefore you must also know what the lord offers you in return for your acknowledgement of Him. You must choose between God and His adversary.... This choice should not be difficult for you, for everyone strives for what seems to be the highest for him. And he will always give God priority, but for many people God's adversary is their 'God' Who grants them everything they desire and Whom they therefore prefer to the God Who is distant from them because they have distanced themselves from Him. And thus it is a matter of subjecting the goods to scrutiny which are offered to people by those they are supposed to choose between. And even now the goods offered to them by God's adversary appear more tempting to people, whereas the spiritual goods, even though they have eternal value, the goods God wants to give to people, are not desirable to most people because they cannot grasp them or see them and therefore God's adversary will have more followers who give him their voice, who acknowledge him as lord and surrender to him without misgivings.... And you humans are in great danger, especially in the time of the end, that you will no longer recognize the right lord, that you will not see or want to see His love and mercy and therefore pass Him by and rush towards the lord Who wants to destroy you. For this reason God sends messengers along the path who sound their voices loudly and warn you humans to continue on the chosen path because it leads to ruin. And these messengers are commissioned by God Himself to bring light to you humans, to urge you onto the right path, to draw your attention to the many dazzling and deceptive lights which flash on the chosen path but which are not true lights for the human being who seeks the right path and wants to walk it. These callers proclaim the right lord, the God of love and justice, wisdom and power, mercy and grace; they speak for Him, Whom they have recognized as their lord and to Whom they are devoted in love. Anyone who is to make a serious decision must also have faithful counsellors, and God Himself sends these to people because He loves them and wants to save them. But as people adjust themselves to the world, so is their attitude towards their lord.... Worldly people strive for everything that is subject to the lord of the world, they are in the realm of God's adversary and therefore also desire his treasures and thus also himself. But he who has overcome the world seeks other treasures, and he also strives towards the lord Who has these spiritual treasures to bestow. And he makes the right choice which he will never regret, which also opens his entrance into the kingdom of God, he makes the right decision for eternity.... And so you humans now know that you bear a great responsibility towards your soul, which will now be considered in eternity as you choose as a human being on earth.... You can acquire the highest bliss for your soul but you can also plunge it into deep suffering, into darkness and torment, depending on the lord's choice, to Whom you give priority as long as you live on earth.... There is only one Who can prepare a blissful fate for you.... your God and father from eternity.... You must make yourselves completely His own and detest His adversary who will plunge you into utmost darkness if you are willing to do his bidding. Therefore do not let yourselves be blinded and deceived by the goods of this world.... They are transient and will not create any advantage for you in the spiritual kingdom. Seek God and His kingdom on earth and then receive the gifts which His love will offer you one day in eternity as a reward....

Amen
