1523 Reminder to fight for the lord....

July 16, 1940: Book 25

You must not waver if you are overcome by the weakness of the moment. The lord is always ready to help and He gives you strength and vigour, He gives you courage to fight for Him. Many a resistance will arise and this will make you despondent, but God knows about every anxious stirring of the heart and He intervenes when the time has come. For His will governs everything and He takes special care of the person who submits to His will. And to him He announces His will, His spirit fills him, and His word flows to him and imparts power to him for increased work for the greatest spirit of heaven and earth. And it is your task that you announce His will to the whole world, God wants to speak to the world through you; He wants His power and wisdom to be mentioned; He wants people's thoughts to turn to Him so that He can now directly influence them. You, who are bearers of the divine word, do not allow yourselves to be put off by the doubts or objections of those who are followers of the world. Every step you take is marked out for you and every word you speak is put into your mouth. And if you want to serve the lord joyfully, every word will also be successful and therefore blessed. The little light shall be kindled in the hearts of those still walking in darkness, and so let your light shine so that the light attracts people and they themselves now desire to stand in the light. And if you carry out your ministry with love and patience you will be successful, and he who previously rejected everything spiritual will become thoughtful, he will regocnize an extraordinary strength and longingly turn towards it, and it will now also flow to him if he sincerely desires it.... And so the work of all those who want to serve is necessary in order to control the greatest spiritual need. Every soul is grateful if a rescuing hand is stretched out to it, and thus you should prove your love for your neighbour by coming to his aid since he urgently needs help. His will is too weak, so you have to use your will and be active.... And if you ask for the blessing to do so you will not fight in vain, God Himself will stand by your side and, guided by Him, everything you start will be right....

Amen
