5786 Means of grace: prayer.... God’s word....
October 11, 1953: Book 63
Return to your original relationship with Me and become again what you were from the beginning, creatures standing in highest perfection, in full possession of light and power.... I make this demand of you.... but I also provide you with the means to comply with My demand, because I know that you are completely powerless in your present state without My help and would not be able to shape yourselves again as you originally emerged from Me. Hence it is not impossible to fulfil My demand, for I take your weakness into account and truly help you in every way to achieve the aim I have set for you.... for I love you and want to see the wretched state you are in transformed into a blissful one. I want to know you beside Me, not under Me.... and My means are of utmost effectiveness.... you can reach the aim but they eliminate all compulsion of will.... And therefore it is your own business when you reach the aim.... otherwise you would truly have been in a state of light and strength long ago but as unfree beings you lacked the highest perfection. Understand it.... you must strive for perfection yourselves, because I respect your free will but therefore also constantly encourage you to make use of My means of help.... You cannot accomplish this work of transformation with your own strength, but My strength is at your disposal without measure. Use it, for this is not within My power if I don't want to make you unfree. Make use of My grant of grace and you will be powerful and able to achieve everything you want....
What then are these means of grace? What should you do to put yourselves in possession of power? How can you turn this power to yourselves?.... You should for the time being.... as completely ignorant.... desire truthful knowledge.... which only requires your will.... Then you already let the bestowal of grace become effective on you and you listen to what is proclaimed to you through My word.... And then you make use of a great grant of grace because you already draw strength from My word which now helps you further.... You make use of a further grace by praying, i.e. by mentally establishing the connection with Me and conversing with Me.... Such a prayer connection is a source of strength of unimagined abundance.... Through heartfelt prayer to Me you consciously open yourselves to My influx of grace and you must inevitably experience a change of nature, because My strength will not remain ineffective if it is accepted.... And the change of nature consists of love igniting in you, of you striving towards Me and now entering My flow of love, of you thus accepting again what you once rejected.... that you allow yourselves to be permeated by light and strength of your own free will and always more and more assimilate yourselves to My original nature, thus also coming closer and closer to your original nature, because you have now entered into the right relationship with Me again and now constantly receive light and strength from Me.... because you have now become in your free will what I could not create.... beings equal to Me.... right children of your father from eternity....
Amen
