5863 Voice of the father.... God's protection of truth....

January 26, 1954: Book 64

You will continue to be taught by Me, the light of truth will be brought to you, you will hear My word and thus have visible evidence of My presence and My care for you. You can receive unmeasured strength and grace from what is offered to you, and you can also noticeably become aware of this strength and grace, and you mature in realization, knowledge is made accessible to you which contributes to putting you in contact with your heavenly father, Whom you now consciously strive towards and Whose will you seek to fulfil. The transmission of My word promotes your spiritual development, you are spurred on to be lovingly active and the spirit within you can now become effective.... You must consider all this and now ask yourselves whether you would have reached the same stage of development without the transmission of My word, whether you would have established such an intimate connection with Me in this form without My word and whether you would have attained the same realization which is now your own.... Obviously I took care of you who were willing to listen to Me, and I initiated you into My eternal plan of salvation, I gave you explanations which you could only understand because I enlightened your spirit and because you were willing to accept teachings from Me.... I spoke to you because you opened yourselves and were willing listeners to Me.... And I made known to you My plan of salvation from eternity. Anyone who is Mine also knows who is speaking to him, for My sheep recognize My voice, yet I cannot speak so clearly that all people have to recognize it, because My wisdom and love will not allow My living creations to be forced into believing these words. Yet I emphasize one thing again and again: I do not let people walk in error, who desire the truth, and I give My spirit to those who ask Me for it. However, this prayer must be addressed to Me in spirit and in truth.... In his deepest heart the human being must want to be instructed in the truth and humbly desire this truth from Me as the eternal truth.... Then he is also guaranteed to receive the truth, for I will not allow an earthly child to be misled after this heartfelt prayer by forces which are hostile to the truth.... My plan of eternity is irrevocably fixed. And the predictions of My seers and prophets, who announced to people on My behalf what I have decided since eternity, have always corresponded to this plan. Only those are to be recognized as seers and prophets in whom My spirit was able to work, because they only express what they hear directly from Me Myself within themselves. And I have always announced the same to them because My word is eternally unchanging. Yet the thoughts of those who listened to them became confused as soon as they did not live a way of life according to My will. These did not recognize My voice, for they were not My sheep who followed their shepherd in all His ways. For everyone who walks on earth according to My will hears the same voice within himself, albeit in the form of thoughts, and these thoughts of his walk in completely the same direction as My word, which the seers and prophets hear within themselves. It would truly be possible for Me to direct all thoughts in the same way, yet it is not in My eternal plan that I bring My living creations to perfection, instead, they must perfect themselves, and this includes awakening the spirit within themselves through love, which will order their thoughts and guide them towards the aim. And My word shall help them to achieve this, but it can only be conveyed to all people through a spiritually awakened person. I reveal Myself to all people so obviously that I can be recognized as the source of revelations, yet only by those who are of good will and desire to know the pure truth. As soon as these revelations of Mine are doubted the spirit is clouded.... the father's voice is not recognized because it is drowned out by another voice and because more attention is paid to this voice which comes from the world.... from the realm of My adversary.... and which is rather listened to because it promises earthly-human things, whereas the pure truth.... the father's voice.... proclaims and announces that which shall bring salvation to the soul....

Amen
