Divine Revelation
My beloved sons and daughters, in all of creation there is no greater love than My love. Let these words fall deeply into you, and you will recognize their fundamental significance for you and for everything I have created. And note that I speak of My “entire creation,” not only of the part of the material universe in which you live, which is vanishingly small, comparable to a grain of sand in the desert.
At the same time, My love represents a power of which no creature can form even an approximate idea. Here too it is true that there is no greater power. This means at the same time that I can never be impaired in My creative work or diverted from My goals. And that I always have a solution for everything, even when negative forces try for a short time to impose their will. My law stands above everything for all eternity; it cannot be undermined or circumvented.
From the beginning of creation, My holy will determines that everything is filled with life. This life is the energy that pours ceaselessly out from Me, the energy that is your life within you and that will never end.
These three aspects alone—love, power, and life—should awaken in every human being, as part of something unimaginably beautiful and great, the feeling, the wish, and the goal of wanting to make the relationship with his source of power ever more intimate—provided he knows about it. And here lies the problem. Merely believing in some way that I exist in My perfection and fullness of power is not enough to create a stable foundation in your relationship with Me. Your faith must be filled with life; then it becomes your knowledge.

In many of My revelations I have spoken about the power of evil, something that has not always pleased everyone. It is, after all, much more pleasant and reassuring to read and hear only about love instead of dealing with something negative. That is exactly what this revelation will be about. I will draw your attention to an error in thinking that has been cleverly “smuggled” into your consciousness by the opposing side and that can have serious consequences for you.
There is no question that your inner feelings, thinking, speaking, and actions should be free of fears, worries, doubts, and oppressive thoughts about the future—as free as is already possible for you who live as human beings in matter. But you must know that there is a satanic side that reinforces you in feeling and thinking in these categories, and in doing so repeatedly destroys what you have already made your own in the way of a positive outlook with My help.
If you do not know about this, you are like leaves in the wind, driven back and forth; you know My words, yet you repeatedly fall back into old errors without noticing it.
The demonic forces that caused the Fall unimaginably long ago are still waging a bitter struggle against everything positive and good. The deep regions of the worlds outside heaven are under their influence, including material creation. On earth the opposing side works especially intensely, for here it has the greatest opportunities to steer and virtually direct incarnated souls without the human being noticing it. It is far beyond your imagination to picture the means, sophistication, and possibilities with which the darkness works in order to seduce and bind people. If you could perceive the concentrated powers of evil and in this way convince yourselves of the truth of My words, you would immediately—and again and again—come to Me in prayer and ask for My help.
For example, it makes use of certain habits and patterns of conduct in a person that make the soul’s development more difficult or prevent it. Then, when the soul leaves matter again after so-called death, it is very often unable to enter higher, brighter worlds. It then enlarges the army of those who supply the demonic rulers with the energy they so urgently need.
Distracting you and keeping you in ignorance is one of its weapons. If this does not bring the desired success, temptations come into play, and finally the direct attack follows. In almost every case, however, it is a combination of all of these, because that promises the greatest success. The human being knows nothing about these influences upon him. They come from the invisible, from the subtle world in which many people do not believe anyway. This makes the tempter’s work easier, indeed makes it possible in the first place; for knowing that there is an opponent and recognizing his attacks would surely provoke an immediate counterreaction in the great majority.
The strongest weapon of evil is fear. It is used in various degrees according to need. With it, the dark powers are able to reach almost all people. The principle that like attracts like makes this possible.
So often I have spoken to you about the necessity of self-knowledge. Whoever does not know himself because he is unwilling to take the sometimes arduous path of self-examination has nothing to set against unnoticed manipulation. The opposing side, My beloved, knows you quite well—in any case better than you think. It knows corners and recesses of your character and your consciousness of which you do not even suspect that anything is there.
This is where it begins, and so skillfully that it introduces inner feelings and thoughts into you that at first you do not recognize as negative—or perhaps never recognize as such. It plants bad seed and waits for a correspondingly bad harvest to arise. Eventually the seed sprouts and expresses itself as unrest, worries, gloom, despair, and more. Hardly one of you then thinks that he has been attacked from the invisible. After all, the external circumstances really are such that they give cause for concern; that is, they do not merely seem joyless and discouraging—they actually are.
In such cases the seed sprouts because the person was not vigilant enough and did not come into his inner being to Me as quickly as possible. Perhaps you were distracted or occupied with other things, or you paid no attention to the feelings that were arising. Nevertheless, something was working within you without your noticing it. And something became lodged in your subconscious that is now tended and cared for by the opposing side, just as a gardener watches over the steady growth of his plants.
Acting out of fear almost always leads to wrong decisions. Doing nothing—for example, failing to initiate with Me a change in thinking and conduct—also belongs to a wrong decision. This very step of “doing nothing” can be disastrous and is favored by the negative forces. With false logic it can also easily be made plausible to people: Why should they turn to a God who allowed situations to arise—in their personal lives as well as globally—that cause fear and suffering?

The freedom I have given you is a precious good. It is closely connected with the law of cause and effect. You know it as “What a person sows, that he will reap.” But beyond this it says that every doing and refraining from doing never stands by itself, but is always embedded in a “before” and an “after.” Every present moment was preceded by a moment and is followed by another moment. Seen in this way, eternity is composed of infinitely many moments.
Every moment has its “quality,” a form belonging only to it, its vibrations, and its individual energetic state. The next moment, the one that follows the present and builds upon it, is not a “blank spot”; it is not “neutral.” It has been shaped by what came before, regardless of whether those were or are great moments in world events, or whether they concern your life, your personal fate (1).
Can you grasp what this law means for you, for your life? Do not say yes too quickly …
Every thought burdened with negativity because it is concerned—primarily—with the future and more rarely with the past shapes what is coming toward you! It plays a decisive part in determining what you will experience, how you can or cannot be guided, what paths open before you, or what possibilities you are unable to perceive.
With thoughts of confidence and trust and corresponding actions, you certainly will not be able to give the great wheel of world events a different direction. The time in which this would have been possible through a common effort and a common turning back by the overwhelming majority of humanity is past. But for you yourselves, for your personal lives, nothing is over yet. Here everything is still possible, even “in the final stretch,” which can take one form or another depending on how you decide and then act.
When the darkness seduces you into thinking anxiously and fearfully about the future, there is an intention behind it: to influence your future path through life, which will take shape in accordance with your thinking. This in turn causes your thinking to become restricted, for during the time when dark clouds of thought circle around you, you are not able to walk trustingly at My hand!
The means My opponent and yours uses for this manipulation are many. Above all, at first glance they are not recognizable as a trap. There is of course nothing wrong, to give only one example, with informing yourselves through the news to which you are constantly exposed. But be extremely vigilant and pay attention to the echo it produces within you. Where do your thoughts go afterward? What occupies you? Be honest with yourselves, and you may discover that the reports of horrors, including the speculation about what might happen, have not passed you by without leaving traces.
Once again: Be vigilant! Otherwise you accumulate more and more burdens on a “negative account,” and they do not remain without effect. They can and will drive you precisely in the direction intended by the opposing forces. Building trust in My guidance then becomes increasingly difficult, which can lead you finally to concern yourselves more with your fears than to remember that I am the One who directs things—in the great as in the small, and therefore in your life too!
There is no greater power than My love, which can envelop you all the more in the security you so deeply desire, the more often and intensely you—because you trust Me—are inwardly with Me. You can take this step, which comes from the heart and is carried out in thought, at any moment.
*
Make it a habit to speak with Me as you would with a person who is especially close to you. Talk with Me about everything that occupies you, everything that lies on your heart. Remember, not only when you awaken in the morning but again and again, that there is no moment when you are alone. I live within you for all eternity. There is nothing about you that I have not long known and do not understand. There is nothing in which I will not help you, if it is good for your soul.
This is not new to you. You have often experienced this closeness, these moments, consciously or unconsciously. They filled you with peace, joy, and courage—and for a shorter or longer time they gave you calm and confidence. This lasted until you were back in the business of your day and, under certain circumstances, negative forces found the opportunity to unsettle you again or even frighten you.
The moments in which you were or are consciously at My heart are, figuratively speaking, worth pure gold. In such moments there is no room for anxious thoughts. In these moments you live differently than before or afterward. Your mood changes for the better, and joyful thoughts will govern you, even if not always immediately. But with certainty, step by step, a foundation will build up within you that is permeated more and more by My love and strength.
Live the moment, My child! Live such a moment. Live it in the right way. It fills you more strongly with My power, lets you walk upright again, and you will raise your head once more and look into the world with a clear gaze. And—now comes something decisive: It prepares the ground for the next moment, which will then have a different quality than if you had previously cultivated your negative reflections.
This is how the future takes shape. This is how you shape your future!
In this way, link one moment consciously lived with Me to another, though this is to be understood not literally but figuratively. In this way an ever-stronger chain of positive trust arises, so that the opposing side finds hardly any, perhaps even no, opportunity left to throw you into unrest and fear.
Do this as often as you remember your way of thinking, which may be new to you. With a little practice it will become easier and easier and will succeed more and more. You will experience how the heavy thoughts about the future dissolve and lose their importance for you. For when you think with Me, you cannot think negatively and anxiously.
You learn to live in the here and now, that is, in the moment. It is impossible for what builds up and what pulls down to have a place at the same location at the same time—that is, in the same moment. One or the other will determine your inner feeling. If I am the One who fills you, negative forces have no chance to influence you. They will certainly try again at the next opportunity, but if you practice linking one—My—moment to another, it will become increasingly difficult for them to place their seed in the soil of your soul.
*
With My recommendation to live the moment with Me even more intensely than before, I place in your hand a key to a future free of fear, ultimately to a happy life. But remain vigilant, My beloved. The adversary cannot fundamentally and permanently prevent you from putting My chief commandment of love for God and neighbor into practice. Yet he has infinitely many possibilities for repeatedly distracting you from your intention, clouding your vision, and piling mountains of worries and fears about the future before you. Therefore do not underestimate his ability to lure you into cleverly set traps—traps that you scarcely notice, do not notice at all, or notice too late.
I set no traps. On the contrary, in the light of My truth and love I open My arms wide. Let nothing prevent you from coming into these arms again and again, and ever more often. And just as you should not waste useless thoughts on the future, do not invest thoughts in your past either. If there is something that still needs to be put in order, ask Me to initiate what is necessary—and then act in love, as I have told you so often. But do not let yourselves be pulled down; never feel yourselves unworthy.
I came into the world to heal, to comfort, to save, and to bring home. Not to judge, much less to condemn.
I am love!
Remember My words at the beginning of this revelation:
“These three aspects alone—love, power, and life—should awaken in every human being, as part of something unimaginably beautiful and great, the feeling, the wish, and the goal of wanting to make the relationship with his source of power ever more intimate—provided he knows about it.”
You know about it! This knowledge is your capital. Use it wisely, and the interest will consist of ever-growing trust in My guidance and ever-deepening love. Both will help you cope well with the time that lies ahead and, where appropriate and necessary, to be a support and an example to others.
Amen
