4684 Power of satan.... "Watch and pray...."

July 8, 1949: Book 54

Great is the power of him who wants to destroy you. He does not shy away from any means and wraps the cloak of righteousness around himself, he tries to confuse your thoughts so that you are no longer able to distinguish right from wrong. He wants to overthrow you, he wants to bring you down so that you remain lying on the ground and can no longer rise. And he will harass you in every way, but most of all when you have chosen Me as your aim and have taken the path which leads to Me. Then he will lurk at every crossroads and want to lead you astray. He approaches you under the mask of a friend behind whom you see no falsehood, and he tries to win you over through words and deeds which, however, do not arise from love but are only appearances which you should fall prey to. Pay attention to this and always stick to Me, then I will not fail to warn you and walk invisibly next to you, I will pull you onto the right path and put the feeling of disgust into your heart if the deceiver approaches you under the cover of love. Detach yourselves from the world and you will only be exposed to a few temptations, but he lures you with the world and its pleasures and not infrequently succeeds. Give up everything the world offers you and seek Me, Who can truly give you goods which are incomparable to earthly goods. Know that behind every earthly joy lurks the tempter who wants to oust you from Me and turn towards you and who uses the pleasures of the world to win you over. His power is great, for he has many means at his disposal which are successful with people. But I only offer you one thing.... My love which wants to help you attain beatitude. And this love expresses itself in the transmission of My word, which is why you must therefore regard My word as a gift of love which you should never ever underestimate and which you should therefore request and receive at any time if you want to increase your spiritual wealth and then also be strong in your resistance against the enemy of your soul. My word is a sure weapon against the attacker, for if you oppose him with My word he will lose all power over you and desist from his plan to win you for hell. But again and again he will approach you and try his arts on you and therefore "watch and pray, lest you fall into temptation...."

Amen
