7952 Carrying the divine word into the world....

July 30, 1961: Book 83

Whatever is offered to you earthly.... Nothing can replace My gifts of grace, and nothing can give your soul the riches it receives spiritually through My address. And therefore you must never forget this gift of grace above earthly pleasures, earthly joys or earthly riches.... you should take nothing so important as the daily intercourse with Me, which gives you My direct address.... I can give you everything, but I can also take everything away from you. But as long as you possess Me Myself, as long as you are able to hear Me Myself, you truly possess the best, the greatest wealth and the most desirable thing a human being can possess on earth.... I Myself am close to you and My presence is your greatest benefit. And you should not want to give this away for anything, you should rather do without everything if you thereby run the risk of forfeiting Me Myself and My presence for you.... You should be willing to give up everything just so as not to lose My gift of grace of being directly addressed by Me.... And if you prove this willingness to Me then you belong to Me completely, and then you are faithful servants to Me whom I can now also use for every work, for every task, and who will also serve Me with all devotion. And then I can also give you without having to fear losing you to the world again. You should gladly give up the world with its pleasures, then there is no danger that it will demand you back again, that you will become enslaved by the world again, for as soon as you were once allowed to receive spiritual possessions from My hand they are more important to you than what belongs to the world. Yet again and again My adversary will try to chain you to the world again, and he will use all arts in order to achieve his aim.... Yet you can also be certain of My protection, for inner strength will also flow to you to resist him because you don't want to give up the bond with Me and this will secures My protection and My strength for you. (7/29/1961) You should indeed always be mindful and know that the adversary will leave no stone unturned in order to push you onto another path again, but the strength of My word is stronger, and therefore you will always desire My word, because it will always make you more happy than all the goods of the world and because everything seems stale to you in view of these gifts of grace which you may accept as often as this is your will. And therefore you are also constantly under My guidance, you who serve Me as an instrument in the last time before the end. And I Myself always guide you on the right path.... And if this path leads through the midst of the world I will try to influence souls there as well and address them through you, for I truly still know how to gather My sheep and lure them away from the dangers which threaten them because they are still too exposed to My adversary's attacks.... and they shall also hear the shepherd's call.... The world offers great danger but I am also to be found in the midst of the world if only a silent call reaches My ear, if only questioning thoughts are sent into the spiritual kingdom, from where an answer will then certainly come. For this reason I require strong supports which do not fall themselves when they are placed in the world, when they are blown around by strong storms of all kinds.... when temptations assail them or attacks by hostile-minded people who will always be represented in the world, in the world's gears, and proceed against everything spiritual because they are much closer to the world and thus to My adversary's territory, to whom the earthly world belongs. But I can also be close to such strong supporters in the midst of the world, for they will always keep their ear open to the words which sound from above, they will always open their hearts for My flow of strength of grace, they will not take a step in the 'world' without Me. And thus they will also carry My word into this world where only one heart willingly opens and receives it. I know where a receptive heart can still be found, I know where My word is recognized and accepted, and I also want to guide My word there, I want to scatter the seed so that it will still sprout and bear good fruit. For there is not much time left until the end.... My ways are strange, yet you walk them under My guidance.... and if you now willingly let yourselves be guided without offering Me even the slightest resistance, you will only ever be amazed at how easily even difficult problems can be solved if I bring about this solution Myself. I still seek to create clarity everywhere where there is ambiguity.... I am still knocking on many doors in order to be able to enter Myself in order to offer spiritual gifts to human hearts.... I still know many souls who hunger and thirst and long for strong soul food.... I still know many sick people who need good, healing medicine.... And I want to draw their attention to the spring which I have opened up, from which truly springs the best water of life, which refreshingly touches people who bow down at it and expect healing and strengthening for their pilgrimage to the eternal home. And I send My messengers to invite all the weak and sick to My table so that I can give them food and drink and good medicine, which I keep ready for everyone because I know all people's suffering and weaknesses and want to help them. And thus My gospel shall also be carried into the 'world', because people can be found everywhere who are willing to accept it if only it is offered to them in the right form.... i.e. as pure truth..... And I will accompany My messengers, I will guide them and protect them from all attacks by My adversary.... because My love is always with those who want to serve Me.... My wisdom recognizes their will and My might truly protects them in every adversity and danger....

Amen
