7226 Power of the divine word....

December 10, 1958: Book 76

There are only a few people who open themselves to the word conveyed to you from above, who accept it as My direct address, who allow themselves to be touched by it in their hearts and who also draw the blessing from it which My word emanates to every grateful listener or recipient. But there is still the possibility that My word will be passed on through these listeners, that small circles will form everywhere which also feel addressed by Me when this directly conveyed word is proclaimed to them. For My word has great strength, only it requires opening oneself and immediately becomes ineffective where it encounters resistance. If people would only listen to My word without inner resistance then it would not fail to be powerful, hearts would be touched and people would feel that they were offered a divine gift. But precisely this conscious opening is necessary.... But the human being prefers to remain defensive than to merely examine the gift once it is offered to him from above. But once he has accepted it, he will no longer want to miss it. And only he can expect the blessing from above on an ongoing basis, for I always speak to him in such a way that it serves his soul to progress in its perfection. For I know every individual soul's degree of maturity, I know its willingness and degree of light and can therefore distribute or increase the light according to its degree of development, which happens through My constant address when My word is conveyed to it through My servants on earth. The human being need only willingly listen to Me, and truly, he will receive food and drink entirely in accordance with his need, because I will no longer leave him out and want to increase the light of realization in him as far as this is possible. Therefore the person can call himself blessed to whom My word is offered directly or indirectly, for he is in direct contact with Me or he would not hear My words. And all listeners and readers of My directly conveyed word are also directly addressed by Me as soon as they are willing to take notice of My word which is conveyed to them through messengers. Only the will is necessary to listen to Me, to be addressed by Me Myself.... And My word will also sound to them, no matter in what way. And the word is the surest sign of the bond between Me and My living creations which want to become My children and sought or took the path to Me. Anyone who hears or reads My word, who receives it directly or indirectly, has entered into the bond with Me and will also feel the strength emanating from My word insofar as that he will always feel more drawn towards Me, that he will always be less able to withdraw from My word but will desire food and drink with increased hunger and also constantly receive it. And the human being will also feel My love and return it to Me, for this, too, is the effect of My word, that it generates love because it is strength of love itself. It is no longer possible for the human being to remain unimpressed as soon as he once seriously let Me speak to him, so that not only the eyes or the ears accepted the word but it found its way to the human being's heart, which now also reacts in such a way that it feels love, both towards Me Who addresses him as well as towards his fellow human beings, to whom he would like to pass on the same which makes him happy and willing to love himself. My word is strength, and the effect of strength will always be increased activity of love.... Therefore it is a great advantage if only the human being allows Me Myself to speak to him without inner resistance. For then he will already experience the effect of My word's strength in himself.... But resistance also makes the word ineffective. And every person should make the attempt and give up his resistance, and he will truly not regret having placed himself into the circuit of My love, but he must do so of his own free will and he will truly experience the blessing of My word....

Amen
