3795 "Let Me take up residence in the heart.... "

June 9, 1946: Book 48

Let Me take abode in your hearts, let Me become effective in you and thus be in you with all strength.... This is your aim on earth, that you shape yourselves in such a way that nothing will prevent Me from dwelling with you and that, through unification with Me, you will become My children forever. However, you first have to remove everything impure from your hearts because I cannot dwell where there is filth, where My eternal order has not yet been established, which My living creations have overthrown through their own will. Only where there is order, where My law of eternity is observed, can I Myself be there and make you happy temporally and eternally. But My law of eternity demands love, and to walk without love also means to live in disorder which excludes My presence. Thus you must shape yourselves into love and you will fully and completely fulfil My will, and if you keep My commandments of love you will be pleasing to Me, I will approach you Myself, I will find a well-prepared dwelling place in your hearts and can take abode therein, and you may then constantly cultivate contact with Me.... You now carry My spirit within you, recognisable to yourselves, for you can always and constantly hear it. There is now no longer any separation between the spiritual spark which rests within you and the father-spirit of eternity, for you carry Me Myself in your heart, you have united yourselves with Me through love. All of you should try to reach this aim, let Me already take abode in your hearts on earth and you will already be blissfully happy on earth. For what My spirit offers you are treasures for eternity which will make you more happy than earthly possessions which you will no longer desire once you have accepted Me Myself into your hearts. My spirit guides you into all truth, My spirit gives you the power of realisation.... I Myself always and constantly teach you the highest wisdom, I give you food and drink and take over every care for your spiritual and physical well-being.... For now I am the Lord in My house, I rule and reign in you who have freely accepted Me into your heart, into My house, which I will never ever leave once you have offered it to Me as a dwelling and prepared it well. And My presence is now your bliss.... In My presence you will feel safe, I am a comforter to the forsaken, I am a protector to the anxious, I am a friend and brother to My Own, just as I am the most faithful father to all My children from eternity. And I constantly distribute gifts of grace, strength and light, as I have promised.... I consider My Own because they have given Me the right to care for them, because they have offered Me their hearts themselves and prepared them for reception through love. And thus My word comes true, for it is truth and will remain truth for all eternity....

Amen
