6545 Spiritual strivers are particularly harassed....

May 14, 1956: Book 70

People who strive to ascend are particularly exposed to My adversary's attacks and he uses a variety of means to reach his goal: to turn them away from Me again and to pull them down into the abyss. He is so deluded that he believes he will succeed because he does not know that he has already lost these souls through their will, which is meant for Me. For I will not abandon him any more who once turned to Me of his own free will.... But I cannot prevent him from temporarily turning to the world again if My adversary can achieve a sham success. Yet irrevocably the soul returns to Me, for the world can no longer captivate it, and My love draws the creature which has already found its way to Me. And therein you can also look for the explanation that spiritual strivers must wrestle with My adversary for their freedom. They will never be losers but nevertheless have to use strength, for he is persistent and his means are often not recognisable and can therefore have a harmful effect insofar as the path to Me is prolonged by temporary standstill or looking backwards.... But I cannot prevent people from being blinded by a false light.... and particularly not so when right light shone from Me and they passed by it for the sake of that delusive glare.... when their eyes are then weakened and they can no longer recognise anything.... Neither I nor My adversary will use coercion where the creatures' free decision is concerned, but nevertheless My adversary will not succeed in snatching the souls from Me again which are on their way to Me, he can only stop them and try to bring them to heel for his objects. And then free will will decide again, which will, however, certainly also find its way back to Me again, even if the human being has taken wrong paths, for whoever has once chosen Me as his goal will never give up this goal again. But the fact that it is at all possible to obey his wishes in the slightest is due to you humans yourselves.... You have loosened your bond with Me yourselves and thereby attracted him to you, who will seize such an opportunity. For this reason increased vigilance is always called for for everyone who strives to ascend, for even if the adversary is blind in spirit, even if his thinking is completely wrong, he nevertheless knows that he does not have much time left, that a deadline has been fixed for him, and in his darkness he believes that in this short period of time he can still achieve to dethrone Me and to accede to the throne himself. And therefore he will not shy at any means nor will he stop at anyone.... But one thing can keep him back: when you stand in My circle of light.... He cannot fight My light and therefore he tries everything to bring the light bearers down. But if you are vigilant, then you only ever turn your eyes and hearts towards Me.... then My light of love can shine into you even more intensely and My adversary will flee from it. You should watch and pray and he will not get anywhere with you....

Amen
