7894 Justification of the supply of the divine word....
May 18, 1961: Book 82
When I send My word down to earth then My greater than great love expresses itself in an obvious way because I know that you are in profound spiritual adversity and want to help you to get out of this adversity. I want to give you strength in such a way that everyone can make use of it who listens to Me when I speak to him directly or through My messengers. I know that you are weak and that you walk your earthly path in vain without the supply of strength, and therefore it is My constant concern to supply you with strength, and this happens through My word which sounds to you from above. For as soon as you hear My word, as soon as you open yourselves to My word from above, the connection with Me is established and My flow of strength can overflow into you and enable you to ascend. For I have blessed My word with My strength.... and thus it must have a beneficial effect on your soul, it must serve it to mature, it must be spiritual nourishment for it which helps it to attain eternal life. I was able to speak to all of you in the beginning, you all heard My word within yourselves, you were in most intimate contact with Me and My love constantly radiated into you, and we had a lively spiritual exchange through the word which emanated from Me and resounded in you and which you were also able to return and were therefore immeasurably happy. You gave up the ability to hear My word in you when you voluntarily turned away from Me.... And yet, I seek to establish the bond with you again and again but need your free will to do so.... And blessed is he who musters this free will, who allows himself to be addressed by Me, who makes use of My great grace that I dignify him with an address, even though he has not yet finally returned to Me.... But he has the will and I also comply with it by revealing Myself to him.... Yet you all cannot grasp the value of this gift of grace, for your God and creator, your father of eternity, inclines Himself towards you humans who once became sinful and voluntarily distanced yourselves from Him.... My love is so great that it applies to you and will apply to you for all eternity. And it is this love which speaks to you again and again because it knows you are in need. For you are still far away from Me, even though you are in the last stage on this earth, even though you live on earth as a human being and thus have taken your last external form before you enter the spiritual kingdom again.... But you don't take your task on this earth seriously enough, you do nothing or too little to achieve your perfection on earth, you don't live in love which would give you strength. And therefore I come to you in the word to teach and stimulate you; and I convey the strength to you to accomplish your transformation into love.... I bestow upon you grace upon grace because I Myself long for your return, because I want your earthly progress to be successful and you to detach yourselves from the world and its attractions.... And that is why I speak to you again and again.... (18.5.1961) and what I now tell you is pure truth, for it comes from the source of truth.... again and again you humans will distort My pure word and then the word offered to you will also have lost its strength. But without strength you cannot mature, without strength you cannot cover the path of ascent, without the supply of strength you cannot become blissfully happy. And since you are weakened beings as long as you live on earth My love is always willing to help you if you want to accept it. And My direct address is the surest help because it requires the bond with Me and every bond with Me also ensures the overflow of strength, which therefore now happens through My word. You are not even aware of what it means to be directly fed by your father with strength.... You cannot measure My infinite love, which leans towards you with every direct address.... and which also guides My messengers the right way to carry the strength to people which they need to ascend to Me. But a loving father knows about all His children's needs and does not leave them without help. And thus I also know where you are lacking, I know about your weaknesses and faults, I know about your will.... And as soon as it turns towards Me, My love will never let you go.... It will surely wrest you from the enemy, for you are Mine and will remain so forever, only your free will has to strive towards Me. And therefore I prove Myself and My presence to you humans when I address you, so that it will be easy for you to take the path back to Me, so that your will will be stimulated and you turn your eyes upwards to where your true home is.... For you are in a foreign land and you shall return home to Me, your father, Who desires your return, so that you will now be united with Me and eternally blissful...._>Amen
