4743 Intercession for spiritual welfare....

September 19, 1949: Book 54

I want to help all of you to beatitude but only if your will is likewise willing, otherwise I will not gain free spiritual beings but only directed beings which I could not call My children. And thus your will must strive for perfection.... And therefore you humans can certainly pray for each other, yet the individual person must be willing to take the path to perfection himself. Strength can only be given to him through intercession which, however, can also be rejected by him if he resists the supply of strength, i.e. if he does not pay attention to the inner impulse towards good or the voice of conscience because he does not want to, thus he resists, so to speak, the influence of the spiritual world of light which takes care of him through a person's intercession. Through intercession the human being has a certain advantage in that his thoughts are directed towards his aim in life, towards spiritual development. He is mentally influenced by beings of light. But it is up to his own will how he will act, for this is free and not subject to compulsion, which is why a loving person's intercession for his fellow human being's spiritual well-being can help him but does not necessarily have to help him, since it depends on his will. Nevertheless, love is strength, it has a revitalizing effect and can also awaken a dead soul to life.... The will can be changed through loving intercession and thus rescue a person from spiritual adversity. Yet love must always be the reason for intercession, then it will not be unsuccessful, for resistance against the strength of love is not persistent, because love is always the victor which even the strongest will cannot withstand, because love is divine strength and enforces everything it wants....

Amen
