7550 Revival of the spirit.... address of God....
March 16, 1960: Book 80
The word of God is offered to you as pure as it flows from the mouth of God.... He speaks to you and you hear Him, you can hear His voice because He speaks through a human being to all of you who desire to hear Him.... You are in contact with the eternal word, for the word Itself leans towards you and desires entrance into your hearts. The eternal deity, the supreme spirit in infinity, empties Himself towards you, He makes His will known to you, He guides you into truth, He gives you knowledge and also gives you the right understanding for it.... But He demands one thing: that you listen to Him with an awakened spirit, otherwise everything presented to you will remain incomprehensible to you. Thus God requires you to awaken your spirit to life, and this means that you are initially willing to come close to God. And when He then makes His will known to you through His word, you will understand this will of His and strive to fulfil it.... you will endeavour to live in love.... And then the spirit in you will also be awakened to life through love, and then everything conveyed to you through the word of God will be understandable to you.... And thus you first have to be given the opportunity to listen to His word so that you will be encouraged to look for an approach to Him, so that His will will be made known to you, the fulfilment of which will result in the awakening of the spirit. And only then can further knowledge be offered to you such that you understand it and it can benefit your soul. And then you will also remain in constant contact with the word of eternity, for then you will desire His address and God will not deny Himself to you.... He will speak to you directly or through His messengers who will bring His word to you. And the people who have already given life to their spirit will always feel touched by God's address.... they will recognize the father's voice straight away, and they will be delighted to be addressed by Him. Nevertheless, the word of God shall also be brought to those who are still unawakened, they, too, shall hear His voice, and they will feel addressed or remain untouched according to their will.... but the grace has been offered to them which they must use in order to also experience their blessing. But the fact that eternal love condescends to speak to you humans is an overwhelming grace which you all don't make enough use of, for hearing the heavenly father's voice is the most beautiful thing for your soul which can be offered to it on earth. God speaks with His creature, the father speaks with His child.... His word sounds clearly and purely, and every word from His mouth is truth which will always make people happy as long as it remains unadulterated and pure. This is why only the awakened spirit can hear His voice and recognize it as His voice, whereas the unawakened person can certainly be offered the same from outside and lacks the understanding for it until he, too, has awakened the spirit within himself to life. But then he is blissfully happy when he recognizes the father's voice and feels addressed by Him. And thus you will all be addressed by God if you heartily desire to hear Him, for then His word will be imparted to you, always in a way which is beneficial for you and your souls, as you adjust yourselves and give Him the opportunity that He can address you.... be it through hearing or reading or through the inner word which can be heard by a person in direct contact with God if it is God's will that he receives His word for himself and his fellow human beings in order to spread it and convey it to all those who likewise desire to hear God.... The will and desire for His address also secures it for you, for God reveals Himself to everyone who loves Him and keeps His commandments...._>Amen
