3664 Mighty task of the servants of God.... end.... strength to that from God’s word....

January 22, 1946: Book 46

And therefore strengthen yourselves beforehand for your task so that you can carry it out full of strength. And draw this strength from My word, receive it with a hungry heart, fill yourselves with the bread of heaven and grow and mature in spirit and soul. And all weakness will fall away from you if you refresh yourselves at the source of eternal life, and you will be equal to every spiritual and earthly activity, nothing will seem insurmountable to you if the strength from Me flows through you, which you receive from My word. For then I Myself will work with you, and thus you cannot be defeated, you will successfully work for Me and My kingdom. And therefore you cannot exist without My word in the last days before the end, and the word from heaven itself must be offered to you if it is to give strength and testify to Me and My presence. For the battle against the believers will result in little faith being placed in My word if it is offered as it has been up to now.... by people who are not enlightened by My spirit, who adhere to the letters and fail to grasp the meaning of those who desire too little spiritual nourishment themselves and therefore cannot receive it either. The word thus offered will no longer be recognized as My word because it is no longer unadulterated, because it has no longer remained as pure as it was taught by Me Myself on earth. Yet what is offered to you from heaven, where My spirit's working obviously comes to light, will also mean strengthening for the believers, and anyone who satisfies himself with this bread will withstand all temptations of the world. For he recognizes My voice, and because the father’s voice sounds so close to him he is full of faith and trust, and he takes on every battle against the enemy.... he remains faithful to Me until the end.... But only My word gives him the strength to do so, and therefore seek to spread My word beforehand as far as it is possible for you, accept the strength of My word yourselves without ceasing by letting Me speak to you again and again, and do not fear and tremble.... For He Who speaks to you from above is always ready to help, He is with you, He is so close to you that you need never feel alone, and His presence is safe protection in every adversity and danger. And if you become weak, draw strength from My word, which My love gave to you and will constantly give to you until you have fulfilled your earthly task, until the end has come and I fetch you to Me into My kingdom....

Amen
