Listening to God’s voice....
You should listen to Me, and I will always speak to you such that you will also be able
to recognise My love for you.... Everything around you can and will change…. but My
love for you remains the same, it pursues you whether you are far away or close by,
and it constantly seeks to influence you, that is, to awaken reciprocated love in you,
which signifies your ultimate return to Me. And if I can address you, if you listen to
Me, you will open your heart’s door to Me, and then the full strength of My love can
be effective, then I can ignite a fire in you which cannot be extinguished anymore,
because My love is so powerful that its fire dissolves all resistance, that it takes hold
of the person’s nature and changes him completely…. that it shapes the person into love. I desire
contact with you, this is why I speak to you..... If you listen to Me willingly then you will
establish the connection with Me, and then I can revive what is dead, I can give true
life to you who are still dead while you are far away from Me. My Words shall change this
dead state, for My communication is a ray of love that intends to awaken you to life.
If you then give Me the opportunity to lower My ray of love into your heart, if you make
it possible by willingly listening to My Word, you will soon feel the effect in yourselves,
you will become aware that you are no longer alone…. you will, as it were, sense the
presence of a benevolent being to Whom you will give yourselves without resistance, for
My ray of love has the effect that it lowers your resistance when I have the opportunity
to speak to you, and you will listen to My Words carefully. And you will always listen
to My Words if you withdraw into solitude for a short period of time, if you collect
your thoughts in prayer or quietly think about yourselves. Then you always give Me the opportunity
to speak to you, albeit you won’t recognise My voice at first but merely believe that
you hear your own thoughts….
I always enter your thoughts since you are, after all, pursued by My love which always
tries to embrace you when you become silent and turn your vision inwards. In that case
you listen, and then I can speak to you…. And the more consciously you practise this
turning away from the world and looking within, the more willingly you open the door of your
heart to Me and the more clearly will you hear My voice, which answers your questions
or instructs you such that your love for Me flares up, because you will recognise Me as
a God of love as soon as you listen to Me, as soon as you turn inwards and your thoughts
turn towards Me….
I always want to speak to you, yet rarely do you listen to Me.... But if you seek solitude
by turning your thoughts inwards you will hear Me speak, even though you will not immediately
recognise it as an expression of My love, because the intellect cannot grasp as yet
what the soul has already felt or comprehended. Yet My communication will ever more consciously
become an indescribable blessing for you and all those whom you inform of the fact….
that the Father speaks to His child as soon as the child wants to hear the Father….
And you all can establish this bond with Me, you all need only listen carefully in order
to hear Me, and I merely want to stimulate you to sharpen your spiritual ear, to practise
listening to spiritual communications by often withdrawing into solitude and longing for
My presence. Then I will be with you and speak to you…. Then I will come to you Myself
in the Word, and then you will also know that I love you and want to gain your love as well….
Amen
