5459 "Watch and pray.... " Constant temptations....

August 11, 1952: Book 60

Words of love also harbor the divine Spirit within them. You may therefore accept everything as good that discloses love. However, you must nevertheless examine the source of these words and not blindly assume a divine origin, since such a belief can easily lead to error. Hence examine everything and keep the best and ask your heart what it says about it, for the heart will not deceive you if you sincerely desire to be found in the truth. True, you will also receive admonitions from the kingdom of the beyond, because the light-beings regard you as their co-workers and the souls you want to help also take an interest in your earthly fate, for already more mature souls can foresee and are urged to make you aware in order to avert disaster from you, at the same time, even though they don't know the day or hour since the concept of time is unclear to them. Yet they will not consciously instruct you wrongly, for they love you and only want to do you good. That’s why they will not be hindered if they want to warn you, because their will is good. But you humans should always be vigilant, you should not walk blindly and you should remain united with God.... But you then will also peacefully go your way despite of earthly adversity, for it will affect you less the more you are united with the One Who alone can help you. Furthermore, it is good for you if you pay attention to everything that can cause you unrest.... Watch and pray.... For you are always in danger of being harassed by the tempter. But to watch means to keep a constant lookout for the approach of the enemy, to be vigilant means to not put yourselves in danger, to recognize the danger in time and to.... avoid it.... Often something seems insignificant and yet it can have dire consequences, it can be a real danger for you if you don't watch and pray for protection and help. For the enemy of your soul lays snares to catch you, and the unwary and gullible and reckless fall into them and become his prey.... Therefore watch and pray, lest you fall into temptation.... The power of satan is tremendous, but the love of God is even greater, and it is for all those who are of an earnest and good will and humbly ask for His mercy. No harm will then happen, He will protect them earthly and spiritually and protect them from temporal and eternal ruin, and the beings in the beyond will also intervene to help if they know their charge being in need....

Amen
