ZAŠTO JE MOLITVA NUŽNA

Ljudska se nastojanja u ovom trenutku jedino primjenjuju na materiju, a ovo znači zastoj u duhovnom razvoju. Postoji opasnost da će ljudsko biće nazadovati ako neće spoznati njegovo stanje siromaštva, jer Božji protivnik [[(Sotona)]] nastoji povući duše dolje kako bi ih kompletno zadobio za sebe. I što više on uspijeva to teže postaje iznova izbjeći od njega i okrenuti se prema višim sferama. Volja ljudskog bića je oslabljena i jedino se može promijeniti uz Božju pomoć, što kategorički zahtjeva zazivanje Njega za pomoć. I ovo čini molitvu prema tome prvim i najvažnijim uvjetom [[(nuždom)]].... Sve dok je ljudsko biće i dalje sposobno moliti on nije beznadežno izgubljen, pošto će svaki poziv za snagom u duhovnoj nedaći biti odgovoren, i ako ljudsko biće više ne može prepoznati duhovnu nedaću u kojoj se nalazi, što je također poradi utjecaja protivnika, i time zanemaruje blagoslov molitve, on će onda biti vođen od strane Boga u situacije koje će ga nagnati shvatiti njegovu vlastitu bespomoćnost u zemaljskim poteškoćama, tako da će onda naći utočište u molitvi i zazivati Boga u njegovoj nedaći. On je uvijek spreman pomoći, On neće zanijekati Njegovu podršku ni jednom molitelju, On daje snagu slabome i olakšava svaku nedaću, ali On želi da se za ovom pomoći svjesno žudi; On želi da ljudsko biće dođe k Njemu kao molitelj, budući je to priznavanje njegovog nedostatka moći i snage, što Bog mora zahtjevati od bića koje se jednom, u oholosti, u svjesnom znanju o njegovoj moći, odvratilo od Onog od Kojeg je bilo primilo njegovu snagu. Biće će iznova postati primatelj snage kao što je bilo u samom početku, unatoč tome ono će raditi sa Bogom a ne u protivnosti Bogu, i prema tome ono najprije treba shvatiti kako je jedno sasvim slabo biće bez Božje Ljubavi, kako bi ga se motiviralo pridružiti se iznova Bogu, od Kojeg je ono bilo dobrovoljno sebe udaljilo. Prema tome sjedinjenje sa Bogom se treba dogoditi iznova u slobodnoj volji, i prema tome biću ne može biti dana snaga protivno njegovoj volji. Ali ono izražava njegovu volju kroz molitvu, kroz žudnju da mu bude dana snaga, koju će Bog uvijek ispuniti. Jer On jedino želi biti priznat kao Davatelj snage i da biće kroz molitvu odustane od njegova prijašnjeg otpora i voljno se iznova žudi ujediniti sa Bogom, tako da će ono onda biti prožeto Božjom snagom i time još jednom postati primatelj snage, kao što je početno bio određen biti.

AMEN

Why prayer is necessary....

People's endeavours at present only apply to matter, and this means a standstill of spiritual development. There is a danger that the human being will regress if he will not come to recognise his state of poverty, for God's adversary is trying to pull the souls down in order to win them for himself completely. And the more he succeeds the harder it becomes to escape from him again and turn towards higher spheres. The human being's will is weakened and can only change with God's help, which categorically requires calling upon Him for help. And this makes prayer therefore the first and most important requirement.... As long as the human being is still able to pray he is not hopelessly lost, since every call for strength in spiritual adversity will be answered, and if the human being can no longer recognise the spiritual adversity he is in, which is also due to the adversary's influence, and thus ignores the blessing of prayer, he will then be led by God into situations which will make him realise his own helplessness in earthly difficulties, so that he will then take his refuge in prayer and call upon God in his adversity. He is always ready to help, He will not deny His support to any petitioner, He gives strength to the weak and alleviates every adversity, but He wants that His help shall be consciously desired; He wants the human being to come to Him as a petitioner, because this is the admission of his lack of power and strength, which God has to demand of the being which had once, in arrogance, in conscious awareness of its power, turned away from the One from Whom it had received its strength.

The being shall become a recipient of strength again as it had been in the very beginning, nevertheless it shall work with and not in opposition to God, and therefore it first has to realise that it is an utterly weak being without God's love, in order to motivate it to join God again, from Whom it had voluntarily distanced itself. Therefore the unity with God has to take place in free will again, and therefore the being cannot be given strength against its will. But it is expressing its will through prayer, through the desire to be given strength, which God will always fulfil. For He only wants to be acknowledged as the Giver of strength and that the being abandons its former resistance through prayer and willingly seeks to unite with God again, so that it then can be permeated by God's strength and thus become a recipient of strength once more, as it was originally destined to be....

Amen
