7099 Faith in God's presence.... light from eternity....
April 21, 1958: Book 75
From every spiritual instruction you can gather that I want to give you light, that I want to guide your thinking correctly and make you willing to fulfil your earthly task.... For since you are without knowledge at the beginning of your embodiment as a human being, knowledge must therefore also be made accessible to you, otherwise it would be unreasonable of Me to demand something from you which you could not possibly fulfil. Every person is given little knowledge but it is up to him to increase this knowledge, for higher knowledge can only be imparted to him under certain conditions. And this is already a sign that the human being is making an effort to fulfil his earthly task. But the brighter it becomes in him, the further he progresses in knowledge, the more he detaches himself from darkness, from the realm of My adversary, who flees a light because it proves Me Myself and My presence. You must therefore first be convinced that I am already present to you when light comes to you in the form of My word.... The conviction of My presence will then also determine your whole being, you will attain inner peace, you will not feel powerless, you will feel a sense of secure safety and thus no longer fear anything, irrespective of whether it approaches you from outside or from within, whether My adversary tries to oppress you through intermediaries or whether you yourselves are still occasionally afflicted by passions or weaknesses which trigger mental battles in you.... Unconditional faith in My presence restores your inner peace and also gives you the strength to resist temptations from outside.... And you should always have this unconditional faith who are taught by My spirit.... The light you receive should also let you recognize the 'light from eternity', Which so obviously reveals Itself to you. You could truly consider yourselves overjoyed by this evidence of My presence, you would not need to live through anxious hours, you would not need to doubt My everlasting loving care for you and for the help you ask for yourselves. For My presence should be such certain proof to you that you belong to My own who are in My constant care. But you still think too little of My 'presence' and yet you experience My working on and in you again every day, which is only possible if I can be present to you.... But you could still make far more use of My presence, for I only want you to make conscious contact with Me, that you thus fully consciously recognize Me Myself as working within you and that, out of this realization, you now also consort with Me confidentially, that you no longer live a separate life but constantly know Me next to you.... And this certainty will have a wonderful effect on you, you will radiate peace, serenity, a constant willingness to help will fill you, and you will no longer let yourselves be distracted by anything that happens around you and in the world. You absolutely have to let this blissful certainty arise in you, for only then will you also possess a living faith; all isolation from Me will be lifted, you will be My own again as you were in the beginning. Then you will also have become free from the power which has held you captive until now. And it should be easy for you in particular to be and remain aware of My presence, who are taught by Me and thus may experience a visible evidence of My love, which is possible through My presence. I can only address you when I Myself am in you.... You would never hear My voice without My presence, and thus My spirit would never be able to work in you either, which is nevertheless My share and will remain forever. "I will remain with you until the end of the world...." Could I promise you My presence more clearly than through these words of Mine? And when it becomes light in you, when you attain realization, then this is always the evidence of a bond between you and Me, which you certainly have to establish yourselves but which is then also so certain that you can establish the most intimate relationship with Me, your God and father from eternity.... Believe firmly and unshakably in My presence and you will experience for yourselves how much easier your earthly path now is.... For you need only entrust everything that moves you to Me and I will take care of it for you, because you believe in My help as well as you are able to believe in My presence. You would never be able to grasp this if I had not already given you a degree of realization, if some light had not already illuminated your soul, which just took its origin in Me Myself. And therefore it is impossible for a person in spiritual darkness to grasp the immense love of a God and father Who approaches people Himself in order to speak to them.... But where a small light is already kindled it can be intensified until finally all darkness disappears from the human being's heart because I Myself have taken abode in it.... because I Myself am therefore present to the person who has received a light from Me.... For I Myself am the light from eternity.... So where there is light, there must also irrevocably be I Myself.... and where I am there is no more cause for worry and suffering, for faith in My presence is also the surest guarantee that I Myself regulate everything in a way that is good and beneficial for the soul....
Amen
