4470 Various spiritual activities: wisdom, seeing, prophecy.... (Konnersreuth)

October 26, 1948: Book 52

My spirit can only become effective where people have aligned themselves with My fundamental nature, where they have shaped themselves into love. The individual's life, which denomination he belongs to and which origin he has, is irrelevant, and therefore everyone can cultivate different habits, everyone can practice different customs and traditions, everyone can have been educated in different religious doctrines.... as soon as he lives a life of love according to My will he can also be filled by My spirit and achieve supernatural things. However, the working of the spirit is of a different kind insofar as one person is imparted profound wisdom, profound spiritual knowledge, while the other is able to see spiritually, thus he can see and experience things which are most closely related to the spiritual kingdom, to Me Myself and the host of pure spirits. Thus he can look into the spiritual kingdom, which is the last aim of all human beings. With others again the gift of prophecy is the working of the spirit, so that they are able to look into the future and see the coming events taking place before their eyes. These, too, are filled with My Spirit, so that they must speak to their fellow men about their visions and about their prophetic gift. To see past, present and future things is the sign of an already high degree of maturity of the human being who is deprived of every concept of time as soon as he directs his gaze spiritually and thus now dwells spiritually in spheres far away from earth, his present sphere of activity. Such people are to be believed as long as their life is an exemplary life of love. Then no other than beings of light can make themselves known through them, then My spirit works in these people, for they are united with Me through love and can never stand apart from My will and act and think according to their own will. Love is therefore the surest sign of My presence, love is the guarantee for My working, no matter in which form the working of the spirit is expressed.

Thus My spirit can and will also work where a person was educated in the wrong direction of faith, where his thinking was steered into the wrong path by incompetent teachers in whom My spirit could not work and impart the pure truth to them. However, a person who thus thinks wrongly can nevertheless experience the working of My spirit through a right life of love, yet in a different form than through the transmission of truthful knowledge, for this would sometimes contradict the teachings of faith imparted to him and be of little use to the recipient. Thus My spirit works first by allowing the human being to gain insight into spiritual spheres which visually convey the truth to him, so that spiritual events are presented to him which correspond to the teachings of each individual denomination, which correspond to the truth, so that the working of the spirit will therefore only ever result in truth, even though the form is different....

(27.10.1948) People shall be given evidence of the truth of what is taught but can no longer be proven by documents, then the working of the spirit will extend to past results and it will make them visible to the person in whom it can work so that he will bear witness to things which can no longer be proven otherwise. Such people will see the past and the future with spiritual eyes, and they must always be granted the working of My spirit, which necessitates a profound, strong faith which can be found where love is present. Truthful knowledge cannot be conveyed from above to earth everywhere, because the acceptance of it requires a completely neutral heart which is free from a specific teaching, which, as it were, offers no resistance through its own spiritual knowledge which contradicts the truth. It must unconditionally accept what is offered to it from above. And therefore the human being may not be bound by knowledge which was given to him from outside and which does not correspond to the truth.... And therefore spiritual working in this form is rarely possible, because mostly the seekers have already joined a school of thought, whereas people outside of every school of thought are rarely seeking, rather they have no faith at all, but faith in Me and My working is the first prerequisite for My spirit to become effective in a person. A person who lives in love but is weak in faith likewise opposes My direct working in him through the spirit, otherwise I could express Myself far more through the human mouth; yet they don't want to acknowledge a direct working, a transfer of My word to a person, because they lack this faith. And thus I can certainly arrange their thoughts and give them understanding for the only truth, I can also mentally introduce them to knowledge which they cannot accept from outside, yet they will always regard their thoughts as their own and not want to see My working in them. But where My spirit can work in an obvious way, where love and faith enable a direct transfer of My word to a person, there the power of the spirit clearly appears, and there all people should seek clarification, because then they can be certain of the fullest truth, because it is I Myself Who gives them this clarification through a person's mouth and hand. And I will always make sure that a source of truth gives living water to those who are thirsty; I will always make sure that bearers of truth walk the earth who can be true guides for their fellow human beings, who only impart to them what they have received from Me, who have prepared themselves to be the receiving vessel of the spirit and are therefore constantly instructed by My spirit in the truth, so that they will pass it on and be active in teaching according to My will....

Amen
