Divine Revelation

Wherever My children are gathered in My name, there I am in their midst. And I hear not only every spoken and every silent prayer; I answer every prayer, even when inwardly you do not yet hear Me, or do not hear Me continually.

I always speak to My children, and I have done so from eternity and will do so for all eternity. There will never be a time when My children need to fear or believe that I will fall silent because I have said everything there is to say. I will still speak to you when you sit at My feet in heaven or rest at My breast; for My wisdom is infinite, and the flowing of My wisdom and My love will never end.

Therefore I am always among My own and instruct them, because there is still so much My sons and daughters need to know in order not to fall into the traps set by the forces of darkness.

You know that I have given freedom to all My creatures as the greatest and most beautiful gift. You have heard this and often speak of it, but you have not yet understood the full extent of what it means.

And so I want to lead you a little deeper into understanding what this freedom brings you when you use it rightly; and also how it can be, and is, curtailed by the opposing forces—to such a degree and in such a way that you are no longer aware of your lack of freedom, or regard your present life and actions as freedom, even though they are not even a reflection of your true divine freedom.

Each of you still carries more or fewer human imperfections; this is quite normal, for you are in matter, and something perfect cannot exist here. You either brought these faults and weaknesses with you from earlier lives and perhaps intensified them here, or you took them upon yourselves voluntarily in order to be able to enter matter at all. Your faults and weaknesses, just like the strengths you also brought into this present life or have already developed here, are parts of your nature, your character.

I know your weak points, and the forces that want to bind you know them too. Do you know them as well? If not, or not to the necessary degree, you become playthings of darkness, and without noticing it you are bound step by step and lose your freedom to the same degree.

Thus two camps stand opposed, with the human being between them. Both camps try to influence him, for both want him to decide and act in accordance with their purposes. Your character is the point at which these decisions are made. Those who want to bind you target your weaknesses. They use your ego with its countless variations and do not let your weaknesses appear to you as weaknesses; instead, they confirm you in what you desire or do. They create illusions for you: success, prestige, power, much that counts in this world, and a freedom that is only apparent. They have no interest in your overcoming your weaknesses; rather, precisely at these points they seize you and take you captive—one person more, another less.

On the other side stands the camp of light. The light also has a goal: to bring you to its side, but not by approving your weaknesses, playing with them, or minimizing them; rather, by making you aware of these traits so that, if you wish, you can transform them with My strength.

This is a completely different path, and it is obvious why the human being does not like to walk it. He stands between these two forces and feels pulled back and forth.

The opposing side must seek to take away or curtail your freedom. Only then can it manipulate you in its way; for if you no longer recognize that you are unfree, you will no longer be able to decide against those who have dishonest intentions or defend yourselves against them.

Your consciousness must be clouded—and I tell you: it has been clouded. Once your consciousness has lost strength and clarity, it is no longer difficult to make you believe black is white, because you are no longer able to see through things. And if you can no longer see through them, you no longer have any possibility of rebelling against them.

In this way you fall step by step into dark claws, and often My human children regard what they then do as freedom. Or else they recognize that something has happened to them, but at the same time great fear has been installed within them through the clouding of consciousness, and they no longer know that anxiety, fear, and worry are unworthy of a son or daughter of God; for human fear with all its facets is incompatible with the strength and power of divine sonship and daughtership. But you are My sons and daughters, to whom I have given freedom and power. Remember this, and take possession of your divine inheritance!

If, however, your fear is great enough—for example, fear of suffering a loss of any kind—you may recognize and feel your lack of freedom, yet no longer see any possibility of escaping it because your fear of the future is greater than your trust in Me.

Is there a solution? I would not be the God of infinite love and almighty power if there were even one problem in My entire creation that could not be solved with My love and through My love. The solution is this: whoever strives to walk the way of love lived out begins to expand his consciousness—his restricted consciousness—for through turning toward Me and surrendering to Me, more energy of love flows to him. What was shadowed dissolves. The soul becomes purer, discernment returns, and what the outward eyes and ears previously did not perceive is now perceived by the inner eyes and ears, and My child recognizes where and in what way it allowed itself to be bound.

At the same time as My love flows in, strength is increased within My child so that it can take the necessary steps into freedom, into the light.

Walking the way with Me means that much changes in your life. Anxiety and fear no longer have a place; where there was haste, calm and serenity arise; disorder is replaced by order, and envy or even hatred is transformed into understanding and love. All this is the consequence of your yes to Me and of your effort. But the decisive aspect, My beloved, is that you learn once again to see and hear. For at the same time you become aware of who you truly are, and you recognize the traps into which you have fallen. Your power of love becomes so great that you can take the step into the freedom inherent within you, a step taken solely in love and including understanding and forgiveness, and that allows you to recognize where you gave others the possibility of binding you. The opposing side can endure much, but certainly not one thing: that those who were bound become seeing people because they walk the way of love.

My love flows in overflowing measure to all My children: to those who already live in freedom; to those who seek freedom and will find it if they walk at My side; but also to those who still draw their strength from keeping others unfree. They too are children of My love, and everything that belongs to Me belongs to them as well. They simply no longer know it.

I will bring all of them home, and those who have taken or will take the step into freedom will have no reason to look down on those who bound them. On the contrary: with all the possibilities they possess in the spiritual realm, they will help them likewise to attain freedom.

I desire sons and daughters who recognize themselves as radiant beings of heaven and who live their freedom. Amen.
