“The double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. Let not resources, and the time you pay them for in order to promote
that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord.”
As long as you can’t make up your mind whether I’m really it for
you, it’s a lot more difficult for you to receive things from Me.
As long as you’re still flirting with the world in hopes that they
might perhaps still be interested in you, you seem to ignore
another verse from the epistle of James: “Know ye not that
friendship with the world is enmity with God?”
The lure and the sirens of the world are one of the most
powerful temptations and distractions the Enemy has to work
with against Me and My Cause, and I sometimes just have to
stand there and watch it happen. But it’s not like I’m going to
encourage you for it.
Thankfully, My silence makes you think.
That’s a neat feature and advantage of silence. It makes you
think. It gives you room to think, for a change, and gives you a
break from all the endless noises and distractions which are
trying to achieve just the opposite.
Silence gives Me room to move. Remember that it’s the space
in-between the objects that does it. So it is in the acoustic
realm. The power lies within the empty, silent spaces between
all the clamor and clatter.
When I get you to the point where in silence you contemplate
and realize that all you’ve been up to lately was vanity, then I
get another chance to present to you My program, which,
granted, may be a lot more low-profile than all the rah-rah and
ado of self-advertisement and aggrandizement.
It’s back from the pinnacle of the temple of temptation to the hill
of the humble cross, the true reality of what this world has to
offer for every one of My true followers…
It may all be nice for a while, rounds and rounds of applause
and cheers, but once it’s really down to what you’re all about,
the cheers will fade. It’s a solemn occasion, for the world to be
reminded of what they did to their Savior. The kind of gloom
and you bring upon them is the atmosphere of Golgatha, a
reminder that the world always resists, rejects, persecutes,
haunts and crucifies their saviors, and God’s messengers.
A reminder of the fact that those messengers are always,
without exception, not of this world, because the ways of the
world are simply evil.
It’s a reminder that they have to change their ways, and many
have to contemplate and think whether they’re willing to do
that, and most of them naturally won’t.
No one is immune to the worldliness bug, and it pays to stay on
guard against it, and vigilant. Sometimes you forget the good
old admonitions from My Book: “Be sober and vigilant…,”
“Watch and pray lest ye enter into temptation,” etc. Or, “He that
thinketh he standeth, let him take heed lest he fall.”
As soon as you judge another or point a finger at anyone else,
you can be almost sure that you’re going to be the next one due
for the temptation you just criticized in others, just to show
whether you were really stronger than they.
Any amount of energy and time invested in promoting your arm
of the flesh is wasted time and energy. The only thing I’m
actually interested in and care about is the spreading of the
message that will bring souls into the Kingdom, or help others
to come back to the straight and narrow path they may have
veered from.
Investing time and energy into anything other than that is
simply counter-productive, because it preaches the message
that, “Well, if he does it, then it must be okay.” When it‘s not
okay with Me.
It’s like having to watch those who are supposed to be working
for and making advertisement for Me, actually advertise for the
opposing side. Imagine you’re running for president, and the
people you hired for your election campaign were actually
campaigning for your opponent, using your money and
your opponent… You wouldn’t be flipped, either, would you?
You would be – to say the least – disappointed.
Well, it’s hard to disappoint Me, since I usually know ahead of
time what you’re going to be up to. But don’t be surprised if
there’s going to be a period of silence from Me, if that’s what it
takes to bring you back to your senses and make you think.
By offering more entertainment, and amusement, you achieve
just the opposite of that and lead them “away from thinking”
again, contributing to the entertainment overload that already
exists. If there’s one thing the world doesn’t need, it’s more
entertainment and more distraction from the essential things
that they usually ignore.

It takes real faith to believe that “they that are with us are
more than they that be with them,” & it takes constant & steady
focus on those superior, howbeit invisible forces guaranteeing
your victory.
You’re going to have to learn more & more to take your eyes off
of the obvious, the physical circumstances & factors, and tune
in to the spiritual instead.
When you look at the physical, you’re sunk! There are no happy
endings in real life for the flesh. That’s why this whole
infatuation with gloom and doom & the darker side of things
that so many of the younger generation are subject to, is just
another trip of the flesh, and shows just how little they adhere
to the spirit. They champion the cause of the flesh & ignore the
spirit.
It takes faith to prefer the spirit over the flesh, and esteem the
spiritual above the carnal; faith that they don’t have, because
they invest the bulk of their time in other things than My Word,
which would give them the faith.
So, in their short-sightedness, they settle for the here & now,
the visible, with all its gloom and doom, & despise Me & My
World, just because they can’t see it.
Walking by faith & not by sight requires a courage and attitude
that only the fewest & rarest, the choicest of My warriors, dare
to take on. And that’s a privilege that not many choose to be
worthy of. All the more it should drive home the importance of
focusing on the spiritual, rather than the physical, temporal
world & all its interests, to you, & help you make sure you won’t
make the same short-sighted mistake of Esau.
You’re expected not to commit their same errors, but you’re still
expected to love them. They might reject & not tolerate you, but
still you’re expected to welcome and tolerate them. If it weren’t
for that crazy, supernatural difference between what you have &
theirs, then what would make it desirable? The art lies in not
measuring others with their same standards, but loving your
enemies, to show love to those who have no love for you.
It’s easy to love those who are just like you or are on your side.
One reason you find so few who are on your same wavelength
is so that you learn to love those who are not.
How do you love your enemies? Look past the differences &
seek some common ground. Somewhere along you’ve been
feeling lonely, misunderstood, bitter & angry, too, so there
should be plenty for you to be able to relate to. Somewhere
along the lines you’ve been a System junkie, a pleasure junkie
& a fool for the flesh, too, so why not show some understanding
& humility, instead of that alienating spirit of pride & self-
righteousness?
Why not show you’re not any better but have been down that
same road, too? Instead of trying to protect yourself from future
hurt, why not be willing to risk taking a blow, like I did? Sooner

You dare to make the statement that My words, and what I have
to communicate to you happens to be important enough to
invest your time in it, and I will honor that statement.
You are fulfilling My Word by your sample that “Man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every Word which proceedeth from
the mouth of God,” and “Labor not for the meat which
perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting
life, which the Son of man shall give unto you…” Of course, that
kind of “labor” never did make much sense to those who are
only concerned about the here and now, but that is what makes
you different.
It’s the same faith or vision that many aspiring artists or writers
needed in order to do what they felt they needed to do, and that
they were created to bring forth, even if the world around them
thought it was nonsense, and it was usually especially those
closest to them, their own families, parents or brethren, that
would give them the most flak about it…
There is always enough to do and enough thrills to discover

Life is full of adventures to discover that the large majority is

here and now are blessed with success in return, while your
efforts remain largely unseen, but that is the price one pays for
being not of this world and one of My disciples.

You can do it yourself, if you insist, but the result will never be

you’re going to be doing a good job at it is another question.

The kind of truth that really makes a difference and deals a
blow to the Enemy’s kingdom is the Salvation message.
I need you to publish glad tidings, the Good News.
A lot of people are preaching negative news, but not many are
actively offering the Solution.
The Salvation message might not put you on the front page in
earthly papers, but it puts you on the list of those who obey My
commandment to preach the Gospel!
You’re learning just how special obedience is, and how much
trouble disobedience has caused for mankind. There’s a drastic
difference, and it pays to be counted among the obeyers.
17 ___________________________________________________
You’re not the only one finding himself a bit clueless
concerning how to deal with the younger generation. It’s one of
those extraordinary challenges you find before you that I want
you to recruit and solicit My help in solving and tackling.
Sometimes all young sensitive people need and want is to be
loved and belong somewhere.
If they don’t really feel that their home and family is where they
belong, then of course they’ll look someplace else… among
their peers and friends, to find that feeling of belonging and
kinship.
It’s a perfect illustration of My relationship with much of the
church. The vast majority are simply quite infatuated with the
world and love it the way it is, and they’re not really all that
interested in either exposing its evils, nor in offering others a
way out. They’d actually prefer to be in it themselves, and – in
their hearts – that’s often the case.
Sometimes their attitude toward the world will change later on
in life, according to their personal experiences. Others are
simply quite comfortable with it and the way things are, and
they’re not cut out for the life of a disciple.
Fact is, you’re in the world, and that’s for a purpose: you’re
there to make certain experiences in it, and you just can’t save
your child from that path any more than I was able to save you
from it…
Everybody has to make their own experiences in the world that
will make them determine whether they feel at home in it, or
whether they’ll refuse to settle for what it has got to offer them,
and seek a better place instead…
The pain of having to watch them go the other way and forsake
you – as Paul put it, “having loved this present world,” is an
experience that I want you to go through as a sample of how I
feel many times.
It’s part of obtaining a greater understanding of My mind, the
mind of God, and learning to not only see things through My
eyes, but also experiencing them with the Father’s heart. I don’t
only want you to learn to see and think as I do, but also to feel
and to love as I do, and the only way to achieve that is via the
path of suffering and pain that you experience through these
conflicts.
To be forsaken by your own for the sake of the world is a very
real experience for Me and the Father to deal with, and We
would like to allow as many as possible to participate and
partake in this pain to give them a greater understanding of Our
point of view, and how we feel about it.
It will also teach you how to love like We do: not just giving up
on someone when you see that they are turning their backs on
you, but to continue loving them unconditionally in spite of
their choices and preferences for the world, even if it’s very
painful.
You may feel tempted to close your heart up to them and lock
them out, but you know you just can’t do that. You simply have
to bear the pain… And, like the father of the prodigal son, hope
and pray that some day they will return to you, and receive
them back with wide open arms, as I have always done with
you.
Mothers often experience these things differently. They cannot
bear to see the whole thing with the realistic view of what their
children are actually doing by choosing the ways of the world.
They say, “It’s only natural,” and in a way they’re right. They
have to make those experiences; it’s in their nature to have to
do so.
18 ___________________________________________________
You don’t have to take and accept everything the Devil, or
even life itself, hands you. Sometimes you’ve got to have the
grace and the ability to say, “No, thank you!”
It’s ingrained into the minds of this consumers’ society to take
and grab and consume whatever one can, but sometimes it’s
simply wiser to forego some of those blessings, which have a
hidden price.
They may make things easier and more pleasant for you
immediately and in short term aspects, but in the long run they
make you lazier and spoiled… and thus, weaker to fight the
battle, which is, of course, the Enemy’s incentive.
He pretends to be your friend in order to weaken you, so that
when the showdown comes and he shows his true face, you
won’t have what it takes to resist, overcome, lick and beat him.
Obedience and successful relationships both depend on the
ability to let go of one’s own will. People with a strong will have
a harder time to form successful relationships with others and
finding it in them to carry out orders or what’s required of them,
especially when it’s in aspects that require faith, instead of
situations with immediate, tangible rewards and gratifications.
It’s the “What’s in it for me?” society and a “Tit for tat” system
where folks only do something in return for some benefit, and
it’s very hard to get anyone to renounce that type of thinking for
the sake of My Cause, and to persuade them into doing
anything for Me, especially if it’s not going to be rewarded with
some immediate benefit, but requires faith in rewards in some
distant future, which is only perceived by faith, since the whole
rest of the world says that it’s not going to happen…
It is I Who will have to right the wrongs of this world, and I know
your frame, and won’t expect more of you than you can deliver
momentarily, but I cause you to grow and stretch your muscles,
enhancing your capacities to give.

I’m a lover of details. I’m the Great Teacher, and I love it
when My pupils do their homework and thoroughly.
You’re finding out that just slapping your theories together on
shreds of information without hearing out the whole story has
unpleasant consequences.
When you get excited about an opinion, you tend to skip a few
facts, and it requires a bit more work to really find all the
supporting facts and arguments, secure their sources, and to
state your point in a more balanced and reasonable way.
Unfortunately, that kind of work makes whatever you’ve got to
say or write also more tedious to listen to or read…
People are always quick to hear some biased gossip, or
emotional rantings and ravings of someone that will stir up
their emotions for a certain cause or against a certain group of
people. What people like isn’t necessarily the facts, but hype
and propaganda. They basically love to be manipulated, and
that’s also why they will receive the Antichrist with wide open
arms, since he will be the chief manipulator of all times.
Give both sides a chance to be heard, at least when there are
facts on either end, without omitting any, lest you become
guilty of the same tactic of manipulation.
Be fair enough to show the facts that speak in favor of the
others side, even if it may undermine your own point
somewhat.
I wasn’t a great winner of debates in My time, and that’s simply
not what it’s about. It’s about winning the soul, not the
argument. I’d rather lose an argument and win the soul. That’s
the goal… Not tons of arguments in favor of your point, but
enough love to win a soul, even if you never win an argument.
It’s not about showing off how smart you are, but about loving
others, and in the process you’ll find out, that that’s the
smartest thing you’ve ever done.
Love may turn out to be even more effective than the raw truth!

The Prodigal son’s father waited patiently for his son’s
return, he didn’t go chasing after him, nor did he send the
police after him, nor did he write him letters about how much he
disapproved of his son’s strayings.
The world is a mess, but you need to ask yourself, what is the
best thing you can possibly do in order to improve things?
Just pointing your finger at the culprit isn’t necessarily the
solution. It’s one thing to expose evil, but what is the answer
you will give?
You have come to learn all you did about the Devil’s devices,
and you can’t say you’re ignorant of them any longer, which is
good. You’ve obtained a lot of wisdom and insight about his
workings, and it’s going to come in handy.
But “the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then
peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and
good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy” and
involves a few more factors besides exposing the workings of
evil.
It sees how experiencing the fruits and results and
consequences of evil is necessary for mankind in order to learn
their lesson and for others to acquire that wisdom, too. You
can’t just impart all you know to anyone by telling them, “it is
so.” If they didn’t believe Me, what makes you think they’re
going to believe you?
So, it might be better in some cases to just hold your breath for
a little while until they’re ready to listen.

I need people who are in this for the long haul, and who are
prepared to walk all the way, no matter how long it may turn out
to be.
A finished building does look nicer than one that was never
finished because the builder didn’t quite have what it took to
finish it. He didn’t count the cost before he started… All that
remains is a sad waste of space and a monument to wasted
manpower and resources due to a lack of wisdom, foresight
and the ability to truthfully assess one’s own resources and
limitations.
What are the resources needed to finish running the race for
Me? Well, primarily faith. As long as you believe that all things
are possible, you’ll know that even if you get stuck along the
way, seemingly without any strength or resources to continue,
I’ll be able to supply you with what you need.
22 ___________________________________________________
You must forego the negative, distracting input from the
Enemy in order to stay empty and hungry for Mine. “Ye cannot
drink of the Lord’s cup and the Devil’s.”
You’re trying to fight that feeling of emptiness with the wrong
cure, which is weakening your channel with Me!
One of the Devil’s old tricks is to pose as some older, wiser
brother who says that it’s okay to enjoy the forbidden fruit; it’s
okay to enjoy that worldly entertainment, it’s okay to go easy on
yourself…
The problem is that the devices he offers seldom, if ever render
true happiness. They only yield a temporary relief from
thinking.
The assessment of where the world is at can sometimes hurt
and tend to be depressing, so you want to drown out those
thoughts with some other, less gloomy input, or simply distract
yourself with anything available from that reality…
On the other hand you’ve experienced that sometimes even a
not-so-hot movie could contain some interesting lessons, and
you figure “more input is better than no input,” even if it isn’t
necessarily all good.
But I’m just drawing your attention to the fact that some of that
not-so-good input can tamper with your channel with Me.
It reduces your hunger and desperation for My input, because
your mind has already been filled with something.
Movies designed to convey a “loser” spirit to its viewers are not
conducive to feeling much like one of My Overcomers or future
champions of the world, and what you were hoping to be a cure
to your depressions is going to turn out to be part of the
problem instead.
So, watch out what you’re feeding your soul. An overdose of
the wrong sort of input can have lasting implications that you
weren’t ready for when you sought some harmless
entertainment…
The Enemy always camouflages his temptations as something
less than downright evil and only time will tell and expose just
how bad the thing really was that he persuaded you to enjoy…
23 ___________________________________________________
Some things are giving you trials. But let the trials do their
work on you: Let them cause you to pray, let them mold your
heart and make you desperate.
One of the main causes for things going haywire is because
people generally are so complacent instead of desperate.
It’s okay to be desperate, in fact, quite appropriate in these
times, and if it takes some trials and some things that aren’t the
way they should be to get you there, then let it be!
Looking at the state of your vessel and the circumstances can
be a bit scary sometimes, all that introspection and self-
analysis, or the state of your crew. But if you keep your focus
on the field and on the job and the goals before you, and the
people I have placed in your care to shepherd and take care of,
you’ll see that there’s purpose, after all.
Hold on to Me, and I will reveal the purpose to you that you may
not be able to see immediately. When your life doesn’t seem to
be making much sense, it’s time to stop, look up & listen to Me.
24 ___________________________________________________
Sometimes it helps to be reminded how many people have it
much worse than you in many aspects.
Whatever has befallen you, you can always safely assume that
somebody else somewhere at some time must have had it
worse than you, and that you’re quite blessed.
The Enemy tries to amplify the pain and darken the picture by
whispering in your ear, as if he was your friend and
sympathizing with you, when he’s responsible for the mess and
the situation in the first place. He’s the real culprit and traitor,
and if anything, it should strengthen your resolve against him,
and your determination to fight him to the death. He’s the
author of the lies that cause the confusion, the
misunderstandings, misconceptions and suspicions that cause
all the hurt and alienation, so he’s the one you should direct
your anger against, and whom you should fight accordingly.
The other people involved are only his victims, just like you.
You have seen the way he operates time and time and time
again, so you should be able to be a strength and a comfort to
the other parties involved, instead of playing along in the game
of artificially induced antagonism and strife that he initiated
with his schemes.
You’ve got to see the spiritual cause behind what happened,
and see what his goals are. He wants to make you feel like
giving up and like surrendering to your fate, and as if the others
were your enemies!
He’s trying to discourage you from reaching out to
communicate because he knows that would be the end of his
scheme.
Communication is a killer of Satan’s schemes, that’s why he
tries to fight communication between you, and also with Me,
tooth and nail. Communication is his dilemma, his nemesis. He
can’t stand it, because it is bound to expose his scheme sooner
or later and reveal just how ridiculous all those lies and
suspicions were that he was trying to sow in your minds about
each other.
Communication will shed light into each other’s minds about
how each of you really feel.
Bringing in that light will diminish the Enemy’s abilities to
operate in the darkness and there sow his seeds.
25 ___________________________________________________
People use fear as an excuse, when they ought to be
recognizing it as a weakness they ought to overcome.
It opens the venue for them to play the victim: “I was afraid of
you…” That’s exactly what Adam & Eve said when they were
hiding from Me. It makes you look like the big, bad culprit, and
they are the victims. But did that save Adam & Eve from having
to pay the consequences of their actions? No it didn’t. And
that’s a lesson for all mankind.
No matter what sort of excuse you will give for your sins, it
won’t hold ground, and it won’t clear you of having to pay the
consequences.
Nobody will be able to stand before Me and justify themselves
and clear themselves of their sin or failures. Not by all their
trying to do so.
The easiest and quickest way to be forgiven is to be willing to
admit their sin and admit that they need help, instead of lying
and pretending they’re doing just fine without it, which is pride.
How to deal with someone who doesn’t want to face the truth?
Welcome to the great challenge of the 21st century! That’s what
I’m having to deal with, and – among other things – what you’re
here to learn: How to “sell” the truth to people who don’t want
it. The least appreciated and wanted commodity in the universe.
The most rejected treasure of all times.
The only way you’re going to be able to sell it is by “speaking
the truth in love,” love being the important factor here, even
above the truth factor.
Without love, you’re never going to be able to speak the truth
successfully. That’s why you have to learn to love people in
spite of knowing the truth about them, truth that they’re not
even aware of themselves…
That’s the type of art I practice and you can learn from Me.
Does it sound like a worthy endeavor to you? Learning to love
people in spite of their faults and weaknesses? That’s the
business I’m in. You wanna join Me? The good thing about it is,
if you do, you’ll find that people will have a much easier time
putting up with yours, too!
Yes, they’re afraid of the truth, which is precisely the reason
why they’ve always been afraid of Me. They can’t handle the
truth without first having received the assurance of
unconditional love. Once they’ve received and experienced
that, anything is possible for them.
It’s a power that can transform any wretch or notorious loser.
26 ___________________________________________________
You simply can’t lose by loving – even your enemies – you
always win.
“If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be
thirsty, give him water to drink. For thou shalt heap coals of fire
upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee” (Prov.25:21,
22).
You simply never lose by loving and doing the loving thing.
Whereas a lack of love for a Christian is always a disadvantage
and a sin, because it is My commandment for you to love
others.
It is your responsibility to love, regardless of feelings.
My commandment to love stands stronger, has greater
emphasis and priority than your discernment, or wanting to find
out whether you were right about your feelings and suspicions
or not.
The Enemy is extremely clever and knows just what it takes to
get you to neglect your greatest and most important duty of all.
What he specially fights, is love, and he will even use your gifts
of the Spirit to get you to fail to love, if he can, just as he used
My own Word to tempt Me.
Maybe they irritate you, rub you the wrong way and give you a
hard time, but it still doesn’t change anything about the fact that
your one and only duty toward them is to love them.
Stretch your faith even yet a bit more and trust Me that
everything is going to turn out alright in the end anyway, even if
that’s not what it looks like right now.
If it was My love and power that saved you, then who are you to
doubt that I can save them, too, from the mess they’re probably
going to get into, just as I saved you out of yours, no matter
how smart you were or not?
If it was your own superior qualities that saved you, then what
hope would there be for them?
But if you put forth a little bit of a belieiving effort that what I did
for you I am also able to do for them, and if you let that positive
attitude shine through a little bit, instead of your suspicion and
doubt concerning them, maybe they’ll also catch the drift and
start believing that I can do it for them, too!
If I’m your only hope, what makes you doubt that I can be theirs,
too?
Even if they’re going to betray you, what else can you ever do
but love them? If you don’t love them, you will only give them a
justification for their choice and betrayal.
Can you make an effort to have a little bit of a believing and
trusting attitude that I’m capable of bringing the best out of this
situation, and that I’m in full control?
You cannot put your trust in the circumstances or the shape
they’re in. The only One it pays to put your trust in fully am I. I
can salvage any situation, no matter how bad.
It’s true that it pays to be prepared for the worst in order to
avoid unpleasant surprises.
But what crime could they possibly commit that I wouldn’t
forgive them for? Now, we don’t want to find out, if we can help
it, but why do you have to act as if there was such a thing? Why
can’t you just accept the fact that they’re a beloved and
forgiven child of Mine, no matter what, and grant them that
forgiveness?

27 ___________________________________________________
Being open to change, wanting and desiring change and
actively looking for it and for ways to change is precisely the
attitude that’s needed: “What can I do in order to make more
progress, what should I change?” etc.
As long as you seek change, keep your eyes open for potential
change in your life, as long as you keep looking ahead, looking
for the new, and embracing it when you see it, instead of
rejecting it, you’re bound to make progress and some forward
movement.
“Comfortable” isn’t necessarily a criterion on My list of
prerequisites.
While it may be natural for you to seek physically comfortable
situations, that may be something you’d like to get away from,
and seek to challenge yourself a bit more, physically, and
discipline yourself more into a slightly less comfortable state,
and into a more revolutionary one.
In order to win spiritual battles, you’re going to have to stir
yourself up, and not allow yourself to settle down in a
comfortable rut, but steer away from seeking that kind of
comfort. You want to be the kind of soldier that is going to
stand a chance to win a battle, and isn’t just going to be shot
down easily because of a lack of mobility.
Instead of seeking physical comfort, keep the spiritual up front,
and seek to be fit, rather than comfortable.
Your usefulness for Me in this war is at stake…
If you shift your focus away from what you want over to what I
want and your usefulness to Me, your fruitfulness and ability to
reach and save others, things take on a different perspective.
Life may not seem to be worth hanging onto for your own sake,
but how about hanging on to it and trying to make the best out
The final outcome and happy end of history will be despite the
mess that mankind would have made out of it all, and only
because of My wonder-working and miraculous grace, and
that’s what I want you to put your whole faith in, not any
personal, carnal abilities.
It’s natural for the flesh to want to show off all that it can and all
that it is, and that remains one’s priority until the point where
the flesh has reached its limits and proven itself to be
insufficient.
Is it any wonder that there is such a great lack of My Holy Spirit,
as long as everybody just tries all they can do in the flesh?
There is still way too much flesh energy and carnal attempts to
make it happen instead of folks really relying on Me to do it for
them or through them.
It’s a false interpretation of the parable of the buried talents to
think that not burying your talents should mean to make the
most out of your natural strengths. The talents the parable was
talking about and truly referring to were weights of gold,
symbolic of the true treasures I have given you and entrusted to
you to bring forth fruit with, and it’s much easier to want to hide
those than your own natural abilities.
While it is true that some people have a problem with shyness
and hide their talents literally, and the parable can be
interpreted that way in some cases, the emphasis should
definitely be on the Word, the message, and the spiritual
treasures I don’t want you to hide in the ground.
Of course, I want you to use your abilities in order to spread My
news and message, but the problem is sometimes that you tend
to use your gifts in whatever way and for whatever purpose just
happens to seem convenient, without really making much of a
difference whether it glorifies the flesh or the Spirit.
What’s important is that you keep the focus and the emphasis
on the essential, namely the Spirit, My message, and the
purpose of it all, and don’t fall into the trap of investing your
energies in something that will glorify the flesh or yourself
instead. You’ve really got to be mindful every day of the goal
and your purpose: that you would want to preach and glorify
Me, and spread My message, and not just preach yourself.
Most people are usually not ready to give their whole energies
to My Cause until they’ve reached an age where their bodies
don’t promise any more glory anyway. As long as there’s a bit
of physical glory left, man tries to let the light shine on himself,
rather than using it to glorify Me and draw the attention to Me,
My message and Salvation.
30 ___________________________________________________
They that will seek Me with all their heart, I will let them find
Me. The problem is that so few really seek Me with their whole
hearts. Their lack of interest, their indifference kills them…
If they’d be more interested in finding Me, then My people
would also be more interested and excited about helping them
to find Me, and consequently, it would become easier for folks
to find Me.
But as it is, the vast majority is far more interested in finding
other things beside Me…
Which makes it so that more faith is required on behalf of My
people in order not to lose the vision for the commission I’ve
given them to preach the Gospel… more faith is required in
order to obey Me than would be necessary if everyone would be
eager to find and know Me.
So, it’s not easy, but not necessarily because I have made it
thus. Folks basically aren’t interested.
My challenge for you is: how do you make them become
interested? How can you arouse their interest in Me?
How are you planning to compete with the barrage of devices
our Enemy has developed to get them interested in themselves
and their own amusement or survival?
31 ___________________________________________________
It’s in My interest that My representatives to the world are

from Me.
The Enemy fights your becoming the kind of samples you’re
supposed to be, and tries to use those around you as a
distraction to pull you away from Me and get your focus off of
Me.
As long as there are still battles to fight, you can tell that you’re
still on the right track, still on the right side, and still hitting him
where it hurts. As long as things aren’t flowing too smoothly
and you can’t just float along complacently, you know that you
must be having some effect on him that causes him to go on
the counter-attack. So, as long as there are battles, trials and
troubles, you can assume that everything’s alright.

It usually only takes one man with the necessary conviction
and burning desire to want to change the world with My truth, in
order to make it happen, as is evident from the lives of Paul,
Martin Luther, Dwight L. Moody and many others who got on
fire for Me, and the world came out to watch them burn, warm
themselves by their fire, and many contributed their fuel to the
flame accordingly.
That’s the problem with the world: They think they could have

as you know, to make My crowning creation out of, and shining
diamonds to sparkle and reflect My light to a world in darkness.
Dust comes in very handy sometimes, and consists of just the
right ingredients that I need in order to perform some of My
greatest and crowning works.
All you’ve got to do is stay yielded and moldable and in My
light, or even just on the ground of My reality in order to be
there to catch others when they fall, and allow the wind of My
Spirit to blow you up into the air again when it is time to shine.
The way to do that is to stay focused on the light and to keep in
mind that your purpose is to reflect the light. We only begin to
have real problems once the dust starts looking at itself and
thinking of itself as something special, and that perhaps the
light it reflects should come of itself: “Am I not an adorable
grain of dust?” Sounds pretty ridiculous, doesn’t it?
The secret lies in waiting for the moment I exalt you and make
you truly great. But that greatness only comes through your
constant willingness and determination to glorify Me, the light,
and your willingness to just be instrumental in making the
world see that light and to shine with My light.
How can you be an inspiration for others, and a sample of My
love, unless you stay plugged in to My power and make sure
that that’s what you radiate? Continue to face My light and stay
yielded and willing to reflect it, and you’re going to make sure
that you’re going to continue to shine, and you won’t need to
worry about the light in you going off…
You cannot look at the threatening wind and waves of
circumstances that would try to extinguish your light. Even if
your dust should get wet and temporarily stop shining, you
must trust that I will use your mud to turn you into a new
vessel, and I will resurrect you into a new, better and more
useful tool than you were before.
Continue to focus on Me and to trust, even if you should lose
sight of Me temporarily, knowing that the reason you might not
see Me is because you are inside My hand, and I’m molding you
into something new.
There’s a time to shine and sparkle, and a time to regroup and
refuel, so don’t be dismayed by those periods when you don’t
seem to be able to give off much light…
A furnace doesn’t always burn with the same intensity, and
when it doesn’t, you just have to relight or rekindle it. That
doesn’t mean it has lost its usefulness. It’s just time to refuel
and let me relight the fire in you. And I never run out of fuel for
you. That is My promise to you.
33 ___________________________________________________
It’s pride that conveys the notion to people that they
deserve better, instead of being thankful for what they’ve got
and humbly, gratefully accepting it, even if their lot or portion
may have some flaws. It’s basically the same as thinking they
know better than I to have handed them that situation, and thus
putting themselves above Me in their own minds, which
precisely wraps up what pride exactly is.
You’ve got to allow the mystery to happen along with the
suffering, along with all the stuff that perhaps you wouldn’t
have allowed or built in there, had you been the architect, but
that’s precisely where faith and trust come in and run circles
around pride and all the carnal mind will ever rig up in its own
efforts.
It’s your own choice whether you want to be happy or not. It
basically depends on whether you cheerfully, thankfully and
praise-fully accept what I’m handing you, or not, and instead
consider that you’d have known and done better than I.

You can’t rest on the laurels of what you’ve already
accomplished, achieved or even received, if you want to
continue making progress.
You cannot take any gift from Me, for that matter, to your own
credit and merit, pat yourself and the back for it and think how
well you must be doing.
“What hast thou that thou didst not receive?” And if you did
receive it, how could you ever boast of it, even if it’s just to
yourself…
Your attitude should always be that of a humble seeker for
more, never thinking you have arrived, regardless of how much
I pour out to you.
Be open to look in new and different directions and ways of
making progress and learning from Me.

I don’t give you more than you can handle. You may be
tempted to think it’s the case, but I know better than you do
what you can handle or not.
I might bring you very close to the edge of your capacities
sometimes, but that’s the way you grow and make progress.
“He that loseth his life for My sake, the same shall save it.”
You’ve got to lose what’s disposable and unnecessary, the fake
and the superficial things, in order to gain the Real Thing, that
which lasts, and has true and eternal values.
I give you the real thing in return for the fake you were chasing
before. The real thing is connected to suffering. “Beauty for
Ashes.” No real beauty without some pain and suffering!

Flesh = temporal; spirit = eternal. You’re largely concerned with
temporal matters when you become obsessed with the flesh,
instead of investing your energies and resources in the eternal.
The Enemy will try to usurp any area of your life that you’ll
allow him, and he knows exactly in which particular areas he’s
most likely to have success.
You’re up against a cunning enemy.

Once things are back to “normal,” you immediately quit
seeking solutions, and just let things continue to have their
way; and as you know from science, things won’t just improve
by themselves if you leave them alone, but rather tend to
deteriorate.

There are rules that need to be kept in order to score in the

Even I won’t allow you to take Me and My blessings for granted,
so, how can you expect a frail human being to do so?
You’ve got to put something into anything you want something

Sometimes I have to discard an unfruitful branch in order to
purge and prune My tree, so that it will be ready and stronger to
bear more fruit. It may seem like a loss, temporarily, but time
will usually tell and reveal that that which I have taken away
was necessary in order to make room to bring in new and better
fruit.
I do with what I have while it’s available, but when the time
comes, and a branch grows old, it’s wiser to cut it off and make
room for new fruit to grow. The pruning is painful, but the future
fruit that will be gained through it will more than make up for it.
“No chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but
grievous. Nevertheless, afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit
of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.”
My crucifixion and My parting, the taking away of My flesh, was
painful for My disciples, but it was expedient for them in order
to get to know Me more closely than before via the Comforter.
Even so separation, parting of the flesh, may be painful for you
for a season, but it will bring forth fruit that you will rejoice in.
42 ___________________________________________________
Nearly everything about a relationship depends on the way
you see your partner. If you view them with critical eyes and
don’t really appreciate them, they feel it, and it is manifested as
a lack of love, which is the fuel of any relationship. It just won’t
make anymore uphill progress but inevitably grinds to a halt,
and you might have to walk a few miles to the next station to
get that love tank filled up again and keep on rolling another
stretch.
43 ___________________________________________________
Sometimes, when some of your prodigal sons and
daughters are on one of their trips into the world, you as
parents can find yourselves tempted to become somewhat
prodigal sons and daughters on your own again, too. Be it out
of resignation, or because you feel so strongly attached to them
that you want to show you sympathize with them and their
ways, or in defiance of the self-righteousness and lack of love
of some older brother…
It’s a test of your convictions, and whether you will stay true to
them and keep Me in the first place in your lives and refuse to
compromise, as well as of your love, to see whether you’re
going to treat them in a self-righteous manner and become like
the older brother toward them…
Some tests serve multiple purposes.
It’s also a test of your unity, and to show whether you’re going
to stay united as parents over the issue, or allow the Enemy to
use this to sow division between you.
You don’t always pass these tests with flying colors, especially
not during their beginning periods, when you don’t really see
any of the meaning and purpose in them yet. Only when you’ve
come some of the way through them, and have fallen into some
of the traps along the way, can you see their purpose more
clearly.
“Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down” (Ps.37:24).
I must allow you to fall sometimes, for various reasons: to keep
you humble and remind you that you are only a frail human
yourself, prone to weaknesses and sin, mistakes and failure,
like everyone else, and prevent you from becoming self-
righteous toward those you see erring and straying from the
way.
I want you to maintain a loving attitude toward them, even if you
can see exactly the foolishness & futility of the path they’ve
chosen. I want you not to judge them, even as I have not judged
you.
Experience will be their best teacher, even as it has been yours.

you concerning the details as you go.

Real greatness does not judge, but is there to catch and
accept anyone the way they are including their faults and
failures, no matter how grave. That’s the kind of greatness I
want you to inherit and learn from Me.
The days are evil indeed, and time needs to be redeemed, not
wasted. Every moment is precious, and I truly need you to
invest your efforts in the spreading of the truth, and not in
merely entertaining people.

The reason I’m allowing you to go through hurtful experiences 47 ___________________________________________________

is not only for you to put yourself into My shoes and become a
partaker of My sufferings, but for you to learn to love as
unconditionally as I do.
The unconditional love I have for you I want you to extend to
others as well, so that they won’t feel judged by you, nor
criticized or critically viewed, but just loved. If you can convey
to people the notion, the feeling and the confidence of “you are
loved,” then you’re there where I want you, and that’s the
moment they’ll begin to follow you, because love is the only
truth worth following.
When love truly becomes the essence of what spills over from
your life into that of others, then you’ll have learned the lessons
I want you to learn and you’ll have made the progress I want
you to make.
It doesn’t matter how well equipped, talented or anointed you
are, because all it takes is your yieldedness and letting Me do it
through you anyway.
And the way you let Me do it through you is by taking the little
steps of obedience I show you to take, and trust that I will be
there to empower you at the right moment, when strength will
be required that you don’t have of your own.
The winter of the world is coming on. It’s not anymore the
days of joy and merriment, although you may still have time to
enjoy a few more of those, but in general, it’s a time of warning,
of desperation, because soon all these things must come to
pass that I have spoken through My prophets.
I haven’t called you on a permanent vacation or pleasure ride,
but to war! War is though! War is anything but pleasant, and it’s
not My choice, either. After all, I’m the Prince of Peace, and
that’s what I wish to bring on this earth.
But as you can tell, not many of those in power share those
same ideas, because there is greater profit for them to be made
from war, than there is in peace.
As long as these are the conditions, there can be no peace, nor
Heaven on earth for anyone, as much as you would like to have
your taste and share of it already now. But it would be a very
selfish heaven, don’t you think, if you were to enjoy it while so
many go to hell without having been told about My true picture
of reality, My message of salvation and hope, and that there is
indeed going to be a change in the not too distant future, of the
kind that the peaceful peoples of the earth, and the meek are
longing for.

All it takes is for a little obedient someone to come along and

Annoyance isn’t necessarily always of the Enemy.
Sometimes it can also be the Holy Spirit grieved in you, or a

“Whatsoever ye have done unto the least of these My
brethren, ye have done it unto Me.”
The way you treat them, you’re also treating Me.
You know that sometimes you could be more loving.
You cannot judge people by their flaws, or treat them according
to what in your mind they may be lacking. Unconditional love is
something else.
You owe them, because you owe Me! It may come across as a
bit annoying at times, that they would expect more than you’re
able or willing to give, but they know that according to the
standard and rules of the Law of Love they have a right to
expect the best from you …
52 ___________________________________________________
People don’t really re-spect each other. They don’t look
twice.
They think they already figured you out the first time they
glanced at you, and there’s no need to waste a second look.
After all, you couldn’t be nearly as interesting as they consider
themselves.
That’s why a lot of people have issues with the ado that
Christians make about Me. They think it’s totally unjustified,
and think that they’re the ones the ado should be made about, if
any.
But that’s because they don’t really care enough to really
probe, find out and investigate what it is that made My life so
special, and what it is that makes people follow Me even to this
day. All they’re interested in and care about is themselves…
It’s another dark side of the “ye shall be as gods” scheme, and
one of its most unpleasant ones.
It practically disables people to learn anything of real value out
of life. All the information they want and can retain is
information that’s helpful of getting them ahead and that’s
conducive to their own advance.
It’s a sad life indeed, but for some people that’s all there ever is.
People judge by what’s before their eyes and by what they can
see. That’s why they respect neither Me nor My true people,
because they usually don’t have a lot to show forth when it
comes to standards of the world, and what they’re impressed
by.
53 ___________________________________________________
When the emphasis lies on the people, instead of the
message, ugly distortions easily come into place… When,
instead of being diamonds of dust that just let the light shine
through, the individuals put too much emphasis on themselves,
what is seen when looked at each other is not the light
anymore, but the individual aspects that also reveal the flaws
and the dirt – after all, dust is dust.
If you could just keep your focus on Me instead, you would also
manage to see Me in others more easily.
54 ___________________________________________________
Life has many riddles and mysteries that man hasn’t even
begun to solve yet.
They’re all trying to make sense of things in their own strength,
with their own wits and efforts to put 2 and 2 together and make
sense of it all without consulting or even considering Me.
They’re leaving the major Factor out of the equation.
So, you can expect that the results they’re coming up with
aren’t always going to be correct.
Some of the basic discoveries man made, that modern man has
based his science on, were made by men who didn’t leave Me
out of the equation, and are thus accurate, and they work. On
the other hand, some of those who have come up with their own
conclusions that would leave Me out of the equation have
heavily influenced those who believe in Me and thus affect their
way of interpreting My Word, so there are confusing results and
interpretations of the meaning of it all, and how it’s all
supposed to have happened among believers…
If you keep in mind that I’m the major Factor in all of it, and that
all things are possible with Me, then it’s not so hard to believe
anymore that I should have created the earth, including its
vegetation, before the sun.
A lot of things happened in the spirit, when disobedience
entered the physical creation, and it set in motion a chain
reaction of various events that would slowly but surely change
the face of My creation, and that process is still happening.
Some of the “laws of nature” that are in place today were not
part of the original equation. But since death entered through
disobedience, things naturally tend to decay. Things are getting
worse, not better, and that process isn’t going to be reversed
until I return to restore things to the way they were before…
In the present, fallen state of man and all things physical, it’s no
wonder that man more often than not comes to the wrong
conclusions, including some of My own believers, because the
human mind is less inclined to believe the truth than to doubt
and believe a lie in general, just as the human heart is rather
inclined towards darkness than the light, as John put it
(Jn.3:19).
The only thing that can help you reverse that state and process
right here and now is the intake of My input, which is the same
power that brought the original positive chain reaction of
Creation into being, and which will restore it in the end, too,
when all will have learned their lesson, or the big basic chapter
of this part of history will be concluded. “The Era of the Fall”
will soon come to an end, to be replaced by a better one.
You shouldn’t worry about the state you’re in right now, the way
you’re prone to make mistakes and to allow sin to enter in your
life, as much as you should look at Me and the fact that I’m
going to put an end to all that soon, because that is what really
matters.
What matters is not that you’re bad, but that the end of badness
is in sight, and your actual, physical redemption from all of this,
at My return, is drawing closer and closer.
It’s great and commendable that you want to work out and
overcome your NWOs*, and that you want to face them, have
them sorted out, and get into a position where they won’t have
that much of a grip on you. But the main point is that the way
you’re going to achieve this is not by focusing at them, at your
own condition, and at the waves, but at Me, the Solution Giver,
and the only One Who can help you overcome all that.
(= “Need-Work-Ons”)
You don’t get rid of the darkness by trying to chase it out, but
by letting the light in. “All the confession sessions in the world
aren’t going to make it…” They’re not going to make a better
person out of you, but you’re only hope is, as was said, “Christ
in you, the hope of glory.”
It was “impossible” for the earth to hang there for days without
the sun and the rest of the stars… All it took was Me being
there and upholding it, making the impossible possible.
According to the carnal mind that’s all pure nonsense. You
have to accept the fact that most of what’s going on here, when
it comes to Me and My power, is way beyond the scope and
capacity of your carnal mind…
That’s the difference between supposed godhood, the kind the
Devil offered, which declares the human mind as supreme, and
true godhood, such as offered by Me through your acceptance
and reception of My Word, My Divinity, My Spirit and Salvation.
The only way you’re ever going to escape this mess is by
letting Me save you out of it. There’s no use worrying about
how on earth you’re going to make it. Your only hope, your only
chance, is trust in Me.
If you keep looking at Me, trusting in Me and keep your mind
and focus steadily on Me, I will promise you, you will see how I
created the earth, and you will understand and fully know, and
there won’t be a trace of a shadow of doubt left in your mind
about how it happened, and not a question.
You will know as you are known. You will love as you are loved
- as impossible as that may seem to you right now, because I
will do it. I will perfect that in you and in all of Creation, in all My
children, which I have begun.
Don’t worry, I won’t leave you hanging there all alone and
seemingly helplessly, but soon you will see a host of suns and
stars all around you, and you will perceive that you have never
really been alone, that was just an illusion. It was a lesson to
teach you that I suffice; I am more than enough. My light, My
love, My power is all that is necessary to hold you up, and will
soon result in a host of others around you, also upheld by Me,
that will make you wonder how you could ever have had the
audacity to doubt.
55 ___________________________________________________
I will use anything and anyone I can get in these desperate
times that call for desperate measures.
I will use any amount of energy anyone is willing to invest in the
effort to reach the world for Me, and I will use any tactic to
generate that energy and willingness.
You have the bulk part of your life behind you, and you’ve seen
and experienced many things that have crushed your
aspirations regarding this life, and you have experienced the
futility of the search for perfectionism in this present life and
world.
But for others, it is not so, and especially in combination with
Me and My Power, with Whom and Which nothing is impossible,
they deem it a worthy effort to strive for the highest goals
possible for Me, in order to reach the greatest heights
attainable.
It’s good to have folks like you who are reminders of the fact
that the ship needs to stay firmly anchored in Me, and that the
efforts are futile if made in the energy of the flesh, instead of
the Spirit, but you may remember the times when you still had
greater ambitions, too, about the way you wanted to apply your
physical energies, and I do use those things, even if in the long
run things may turn out differently for some than what they
imagined…
You weren’t in it for the long haul. You thought it was all going
to be over sooner, and you ran out of strength like the tale of
the hare and the tortoise, and the same applies to many. You
were blue-eyed and optimistic, because you thought I was
going to rescue and whisk you all out of the mess of this world
a lot sooner…
But there were different lessons in store for you and many
others likewise.
Things don’t always turn out exactly the way they initially seem
to.
What seems nice and shiny and relatively simple on the surface
sometimes becomes increasingly complex as time goes on and
you get a closer look at it.
Youth stands for a smooth and attractive surface, but it’s often
the depths of the many wrinkles of old age that reveal the true
intricacy of life. When you’re young, everything seems so
simple, so smooth, just like the surface of the skin you see in
the mirror. Everything seems to be upbeat and energy and
singing the tale of progress.
Only with the passage of time and more time do people begin to
realize that what can truly be considered progress is something
often quite different from those things they pursued in their
younger years. Values change. Everything changes.
At first the race is run in the flesh – with perhaps a little help
from My Spirit. But the truly experienced know that it is not in
the energy of the flesh that the race is won, and they rely more
fully on My Spirit to carry them through the finish line.
You have only just begun to battle in the spirit, and part of you
still yearns to run with the younger generation, but you have to
let go and realize that that isn’t your task, but your task is to be
an example of how much more efficient it is to wrestle and fight
in the Spirit, in other words, let My Strength do the fighting for
you.
The younger you are, the more you want to do yourself. The
weaker you become, the more you learn to rely and depend on
My strength, and naturally, I want to prove that this is the way
you truly get more accomplished.
So, while for some it may mean to do all they physically can, to
become more “professional” in what they’re doing, in your case
it may mean something else, namely that I want you to learn
how to professionally rely on My strength, My guidance and
wisdom, so that once the younger crowd starts running out of
their natural steam, you can show them an even better way that
is found in letting go of the trust in the arm of the flesh, and
starting to rely on a much greater power…
Some of the oriental religions have grasped this point about the
superiority of the spirit over the flesh better than Christendom
per se…
Right now, the whole world looks up to and has idolized youth
and the young. But it will turn out to be those who have learned
from experience that really pull the threads and exert the true
power that wins…

love…
Anybody can love the perfect. Love becomes real when it’s
about loving in spite of the hurt they’re causing you, in spite of
the countless times they prefer something else, something
infinitely inferior, some dead, material, lifeless thing over you,
or they’re giving more attention to anyone or anything else.
Love keeps on loving even in the face of the total absence of
love on the part of the other one… That’s the kind of love that
never fails, that never ceases, never stops loving… the
supernatural love of God, the greatest and deepest of all
realities.

what you have, and enjoy it, instead of seeking and craving for
more, something else to do or add to your collection of

It’s hard for you to play the role of a nobody, and just be
nothing and no one, unheard of and “invisible” for a while.
You figure you’ve got all these gifts that merit a spot in the
limelight…
But that’s just the thing about My followers: the time of their
“stardom” isn’t meant to be in this life and this world, but in the
one to come.
That’s why I asked you if you would be willing to become all
things for all men, and willing to let Me make absolutely nothing
out of you, so that I could talk and move and breathe in and
through you.
The element of self becomes a distraction, yes, even an
abomination. “The less there is of you, the more the light
shines through” means that the opposite applies also: the more
the is of you, the less the light shines through.
In order to let My light shine through you, there has got to be
less of you, that means, the voice of your own opinions and
views must quiet down, you must hush, and wait until I speak
through you.
Sometimes silence is an important part of what I have to convey
to the world. I certainly am not going to be the type to try to
drown them out.
I know what I was talking about when I admonished My
disciples not to cast their pearls before swine.
So, if I’ve given you nothing to say for the moment, than that’s
what I want you to say for the time being: nothing. If they won’t
listen anyway, and haven’t received what you have told them
already, you’ve just got to wait until the time is ripe and they
will listen, when the clouds of judgment on the horizon that they
now refuse to see will be hovering right over them, and make it
evident that all things are not the way they’re supposed to be.
They refuse to accept your view because they’re scared of the
truth. They don’t know that they can trust Me. That’s why faith
and trust are such important issues and themes to convey:
that’s part of your job, to impart to them the confidence and
assurance that yes, they can trust Me, that I am trustworthy
indeed, they can put their trust in Me. I won’t let them down.
65 ___________________________________________________
The Enemy has rigged up the illusion that he has vastly
outnumbered you, and it takes faith to see through his scheme,
and that in reality it isn’t so.
You feel so powerless sometimes, your efforts seem so puny at
times compared to what’s needed, and you feel overwhelmed
by the apparent superiority of the Enemy’s presence
everywhere in this world. But that’s where faith comes in that
still sees Me in everything to an even greater extent than the
Enemy’s power.
Politically, morally and culturally speaking, it can be said that
“he’s got the whole world in his hands.” But only those with
great faith can see the extent to which he has taken over this
world, but still know that in reality it is I Who have got the whole
world in My hands, and only allow him to pull off his little game
of playing “god of the world” for a little while, along with all his
little “gods” who follow him and his “let’s all be gods” scheme.
He may still feel all-powerful as long as he’s in My Realm, the
Spirit Realm, but once he’ll be confined to the limitations of the
physical world, the magic’s going to wear off real fast, and he’s
not going to make half as graceful a picture at “god of this
world” as he and his followers may imagine him to be right
now…
He’s going to turn out to be just as much subject to sin as every
other slave to their own lusts and evil in their hearts since the
beginning of time. The evil he actually introduced into the world
at the beginning will turn out to be his own demise and Achilles
heel, as it will turn on him and cause him to make the mistakes
that will cost him the ruler-ship over this world, which presently
he may still think is rightfully his.
But in the end it will be mighty clear that he will have muffed it,
and that the world would never survive if he would stay in
power. All creation groans to be delivered of the grip of the
usurper.
So you’re not the only one who groans occasionally and
wonders and sighs, “When is this all going to be done and over
with?” I know how you feel, even though grace was poured out
in a greater measure during My time on earth, and life wasn’t
quite as tough as it is nowadays.
Of course, in many physical aspects it has become a lot easier
for most than it was in My day, but at the same time it makes
the spiritual aspect so much harder.
The more the flesh is pampered and indulged, the harder it is to
keep up the spiritual values.
Modesty is virtually being destroyed by the all-present Gospel
of consumerism that is practically forced on people.
The Devil knew that this was going to be a stronger force and
more efficient tool in his hand than any intellectual lie he could
ever cook up. Sheer primitive and instinctive greed, lust and
appetite…
His greatest asset and factor working for him is man’s own
sinful nature, his survival instincts and the “lusts that war in his
members.” They’re all going to drive them straight into his
arms.
That’s why it’s important for you to fight against and resist
them to the extent you can. Otherwise, you’re just going to be
part of his booty and prey.
I want you to overcome, and embrace virtues, such as modesty,
and the other fruits of the spirit…

Friendships and relationship require maintenance work.
The only thing that really cultivates friendships is actual
interaction with people.

the realization that they failed to invest time, heart and prayer

those closest to them.
I don’t want you to be like those countless souls who don’t

truth in order to gain or maintain their popularity. Only a special
few are willing to let all that other stuff go for the price of that

Are you like that merchant that sold all that he had for that one
pearl of truth?
Only a very small handful, comparatively, are really on an all-
out relentless search and hunt for the truth and nothing but the
truth, and refuse to compromise with any lie or half-truth
whatsoever. And of course that sets them apart.
The Mountain Men have settled mighty close to the fringes of

them that the valleys of this world are not their Home, and not
where they belong. The chosen few are always called and

never crowded. Not those spiritual mountain peaks, anyway.
Can you live with having to pay the price of being a mountain

love that moves you. If you don’t have enough love for the
people, then at least make sure you’re getting enough love from
Me so that you can love Me in return, and I will also give you
enough love for the people in the process.
My works aren’t always simple. They’re often complex and
intricate, and so is the work that I’m intending to do through
you. It’s not something you can figure out at one glance. The
sculpture of your life is not something I slap together
haphazardly. It takes time, and there are periods when you can’t
quite figure out what’s to become of it, and you frown and
wrinkle your nose and wonder, “Huh? What’s it supposed to
be?”
But bear with Me. Hang in there and let Me do it. Trust Me that
I’m going to make the best thing out of you I could possibly
imagine, and that is much better than anything you could
possibly imagine. You’re the work of My hand, and the more
you trust Me and just let Me do with it what I will, without much
interference or doubt or questioning from you, the better it’s
going to be.
I know, it’s hard to believe that something as messy and
imperfect as your life and your whole situation is supposed to
turn out into something that will make perfect sense and perfect
beauty some day, but that’s where you’ve got to have faith in
things beyond those which the eye can see, and beyond things
that are thought humanly impossible.
Yes, the fulfillment of My Promises requires supernatural
measures. Things unseen and unheard of since the beginning
of time, although My prophets have foretold it from Enoch to
John, that I would come with tens of thousands of My saints in
the sky…
That’s definitely something hard to picture for the average
rational mind, and probably the majority of folks around you
would call you a lunatic if you told them that you believe that
that’s what’s going to happen some day soon. Well, but if
you’re going to believe that outrageously impossible happy
ending for the sad story the history of this world so far has
been, then you can also start believing Me for smaller
“impossibilities” today, and allow Me to work contrary to
natural reasoning in your life.
If I’m going to intervene supernaturally and save this whole
world from the mess it has gotten itself into, then am I not going
to be able to do the same for you and change any less than
favorable situation you’re in into a better one?
Except for the last 2 witnesses who are going to make a lot of
worldwide noise via the media, what My church will basically
have to do is patiently wait it out until My return during the
Tribulation, because it’s going to be “the night,” of which I
spoke, “which cometh, when no man can work.”
That’s why it’s very important that you give the world the
message as much as you can beforehand, before the
Tribulation, and before the mark of the Beast will be
implemented and the church will be persecuted, because “the
night cometh when no man can work.”
My strength is enough for you, but your own could never be
enough. When you’re weak, then I am strong in you, but when
you’re strong in your own strength, then I cannot be seen in
you, and I can hardly shine through. So, ask Me whether I want
to see you weak or strong. Ask Me whether it’s your physical
strength and togetherness I need in order to do what I want to
get done through you.
You’re supposed to get it more together and become more
organized and structured and apply more planned strategy in
the physical, but you’re still supposed to do it in the Spirit and
hand in hand with My counsel. The one doesn’t rule out the
other. The new counsel doesn’t make the older counsel
obsolete.
I prefer you to stay empty and desperate and yearning for Me
than full and content and self-satisfied with your own
accomplishments. I’d rather have you seeking Me and
wondering, “Lord, what can I do for you,” than pointing at all
that you have done for Me already.
70 ___________________________________________________
It may surprise some people, but I wasn’t exactly a born
optimist when it came to people and all they were capable of in
this life, either. I knew what was in their hearts, and from the
viewpoints of some, it may have also sounded “pessimistic”
that I kept foretelling them that they were going to crucify Me.
So, I’m not going to tell you, “Relax, they’re all not as bad as
you imagine them to be.”
The only thing I can tell you is what I always tell you: Don’t look
at them, look at Me! Optimism may not always pay off when it
comes to people, but it will pay off when it comes to Me. It’s
actually not just blind optimism then, but real faith and trust.
Focus on Me, and I will give you the strength and wisdom and
guidance to make it through any situation with people.
“Don’t be afraid of their faces!” Don’t be afraid of what other
people can possibly do to you, and the hurt they may possibly
inflict on you, because I’m with you through all of it.
The art is to learn to forgive and love them anyway, in spite of it
all.
The art is to learn to pray even on the very cross they nailed
you to: “Forgive them, for they know not what they do.”
You’re never going to be able to pray that on the cross if you
don’t learn to pray that in the everyday situations of life.
Most people aren’t aware of the dangers of relationship. Just
like baby animals usually aren’t afraid of people to the extent
that older, grown up animals are. Experience teaches both man
and animals alike to be more careful.
It’s good to be cautious and watchful. I never said, “Go ahead
and jump right in with both feet, and enjoy whatever situation
you land in!” I admonished My disciples to watch and pray.
There are certain situations and things in life you would
naturally wish to avoid, and it takes some looking before you
leap, and some wisdom, prayer and communication with Me in
order to avoid winding up in a bigger mess than the one you
were in previously.
There are other challenges in life than finding out exactly what
the great universal truth of everything is. Sometimes it’s the
little truths, the little right attitudes and the proper position of
the heart that make life on a local and practical level a lot more
livable.
That’s what is relevant to most people: how can the answers
they derive from their faith in Me and from their relationship
with Me help them in their physical, day to day lives? Not
everybody’s necessarily bent on finding out all the whys and
wherefores of the intricacies of the universe. Most of them are
satisfied with just the necessary information and help to live
happy lives together in harmony with others.

keep most of the Family stirred and apart from the world before to be your immediate world they seem to have an impact on, but
that. you know that I start building big things from tiny things.

That’s just the thing about “things” in this world: they
deteriorate and fall apart…
They don’t improve, as the evolutionists claim. That’s one of
the qualities of this world, and Satan is trying to create an
appearance of the opposite, by creating artificial enhancements
on the surface, that create the illusion of improvement, while
the real body underneath keeps deteriorating and slowly rotting
away.
I’m literally having to allow this world to die in order for it to
become desperate enough to finally accept and welcome My
return to reclaim My own.
Folks blame the state of the world on Me, when in reality it’s
thanks to the Enemy and people’s infatuation with him that the
world has gotten into the state it’s in.
It’s not exactly because of their dedication to Me… Even though
The world doesn’t pay much attention to My tiny, seemingly
insignificant words to seemingly tiny and insignificant people.
They’re out for the big rah-rah, the big blaring news and
shocking headlines and sensations. But when all the noise and
clamor is over, what will remain is My still small voice uttering
the words and the music that keeps the universe turning, the
“music of all things,” the “song of creation.”
Some hear faint echoes of it, and they try to figure it out with
their carnal minds and translate it into their own scope of
understanding, only to give off a wrong picture of it. They come
to the wrong conclusions leaving out the major Factor. That’s
why you’re much better off, drawing no conclusions, but the
raw and pure input from the Source Itself.
They may consider it nothing, and they may ignore it and prefer
what they consider “something,” but time will tell how much
will be left of all their big “somethings” when history is through
with them…
The tryings and purgings of time erode all things that are not
really real, all false premature conclusions, no matter for how
long they may have been worshiped and obeyed as “truths.”
The only truths that remain will be those that don’t contradict
Mine. That may sound like a pretty bold statement in a world of
lies, but it’s nevertheless a certainty.
“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My Words will never
pass away.” Blessed are they who believe that. Blessed are
they who cling to the truth as their anchor in life, and not those
man-made concoctions of half-truths and pseudo-truths, mixed
with a lot of wishful thinking…
They may try to blame Me for not having made man more
perfect, but as highly as man thinks of himself already, just
imagine how much more highly he would think of himself if I
had made him more perfect and equipped him with less flaws.
Just as you can trust Me for having supplied just the perfect
blend of ingredients and proportions in the rest of creation, you
can trust Me that I knew what I was doing in making man just
the way he is. Even the degree to which all things – including
man – are deteriorating is carefully planned, and the story that
had a perfect beginning, in which all things were found as
“good”, will also have a perfect ending, in which all things will
again be found as “good,” and, perhaps even a little better than
before, due to all the precious lessons that will have been
learned from man’s little detour into the world of evil.
Evil is only a matter of time. Its sting will be plucked. So, having
to cope with evil really is only a matter of time for you, which
should be another reason for you to look forward to joining Us
in the timeless realm before long. All the pain and sorrows will
be over then, and you’ll see and know even as you are known.

The light of My inspiration is a flame that you have to keep
and guard. It’s something you must fight for, in order to keep it
burning.
It’s the same as exercising: it takes staying at it and increasing
the quantity of the exercise to a certain level in order for it to
bear tangible and visible results. You’ve got to keep at it! And
that’s the same it takes if you want to stay in shape spiritually!
You’ve got to stay on My channel, and that doesn’t just happen
by itself; it takes an effort, because the Enemy will try lots of
tricks in order to distract you from it, irritate and aggravate you
to the point where you get out of it.
In order not to get out of it, you must fight to cling to My
wavelength. That means, you have to cherish and value your
spiritual position and guard it, and determine that you won’t
allow the Enemy to throw you off, come what may. You will
certainly not allow him to use something insignificant to throw
you off.
You must consider, “Is this worth getting grumpy over? Is this
worth getting upset about and trading my position in the victory
for, and my position on the Lord’s wavelength?”
And, of course, then the wholehearted answer must be, “No
way, dude!”
Just as the entrance of My Word giveth light, so the vibes and
input of discontent and murmuring the Enemy tries to bring into
your life are darkness, and you must make a whole-hearted
effort to resist that darkness and cling to the light!
Sometimes your attitude seems to be that darkness is just one
other “mood” or “shade” in intervals with the light. You don’t
view it as the opposite of light that it is, nor as the enemy that it
is, but you take it in this sort of passive attitude, as if saying,
“Well, I guess that’s just the way it is,” and you get all bitter and
cynical and sarcastic over My having allowed that unpleasant
scenario happen, when it’s not really I Who allowed it, but you
did! You allow it to happen by refusing to fight for the light,
refusing to make an effort to stay in the light and on My
wavelength.
You don’t have to let the darkness in. You can make a choice to
fight and refuse to let it in and focus on the light instead, and
decide that you’re going to cling to a positive attitude instead!
89 ___________________________________________________
I like to win victories that prove that numbers or physical
strength or size don’t matter to Me at all. I don’t need more than
a handful to win the battle in the decisive moment. The only
question is, as far as you’re concerned: will you be in that
number, and will you be there when we fight that battle?
Will you look at the waves and at the condition of your vessel,
your family, your Home – will you look at the circumstances, or
at Me?
If you look at it in the carnal and from a rational point of view,
you might as well forget it. The only way it makes sense is if
you refuse to look at all that, all the physical odds and
circumstances that promise defeat, and you look steadily at the
one and only Factor that will ever guarantee your victory in the
first place…
The Enemy doesn’t hesitate in the least to snatch away your
own children from you in front of your noses, to virtually rape
them right before your eyes, and you’ll know what kind of a
ruthless and merciless battle and resolve will be necessary in
order to overcome him.
All I really need is a handful of people who simply hate the Devil
enough to refuse to compromise with him, and refuse to settle
for a sickening truce with him, but are determined to wage an
all-out war and battle to the death with him. There is no
alternative. If you hate the Enemy enough, you will refuse to be
sent home! You will insist on being there when I’ll bring an end
to him, along with My few chosen ones.
Let the rest of the cowards and half-hearts walk home, which is
what they wanted to do all along, and go back to sleep. But
you’re going to want to be in on that battle!
That’s all that counts to Me: just a handful and a few
determined, relentless ones, bent on fighting the Enemy to the
death!
The others will serve their purpose, too. But more often than
not, they might actually serve to show you what you don’t want
to be or become like: you don’t want to trust in the arm of the
flesh, or in numbers, or in circumstances, and you don’t want to
go by what you can see, or by the odds and the chance you
stand to win against a physically superior enemy. You don’t
want to be as superficial as that to think that the God you trust
in would be dependent on such things to win His war.
You’ll know that it is His war, not yours, and He’s going to win it
His way, and all you can do is yield to His ways and rejoice in
the privilege to be among those He has chosen to do it with.
You’ve got a battle in front of you in which the Spirit of God
Almighty will do the fighting for you, and you’ll just be
instruments in His hands that He will use to make a racket that
will scare the hell out of His opponents.
The God of all flesh is just as alive and around as He used to be
during the time of Gideon and all His other ancient prophets.
The scoffers may not believe it, because He never showed up to
cater to their whims. But that is because the God of all flesh is
not interested in those who only seek to be catered to. He
doesn’t need another bunch of pampered brats, because He
has seen enough of that already, as I’m sure you have, too.
The only question is, will you have what it takes to make a
difference and be one of those exceptions who won’t fall for
any of the tricks of the Enemy to either scare you, or put you to
sleep or distract or hypnotize you?
This isn’t to say that some of the others may not be woken up,
for perhaps they will realize the error of their ways of allowing
themselves to fall for the plastic enticements of the Devil.
Maybe they will one day be able to tell the difference between
what’s real and what’s fake. But fact is, right now they don’t,
and so you’ve got the job of continuing to forge ahead for Me
regardless. You cannot let them deter you, irritate you, frustrate
you or slow you down in any way, much less stop you.
Will you be as revolutionary to refuse to let your responsibility
toward them outweigh your responsibility toward Me, My
Cause, and this war?
Will you be left behind to pamper those who want someone to
cater to them or will you march on forward with the few of those
who will heed My call and refuse to be sidetracked by any lame
attempt of the evil one?
You might not see them, but you must believe that they are
there: the inner core of My army, that secret bunch of chosen
ones who will be there to fight the battle when the time has
come, and you must determine to support them and be there for
them, if nothing else.
Just keep your spiritual focus on that inner, secret core that I
have promised you exists somewhere, even if outside the
scope of your view, and keep going for them, believing that
they will win the battle, whether you’re going to be among them
or not. At least you can support them, believe in them,
strengthen them, and be there for them.
The others may never appreciate a single thing you did, but
they will. They will know that you have been there for them.
Keep in mind that I have once before won a great and decisive
battle with a mere 300, and I don’t need the tens of thousands.
If you cannot believe and trust Me for the tens of thousands you
do see, trust Me for the 300 you may not be able to see, those
that I will use in the end to win the battle with, and consider
them a worthy cause to be rendering your resources, your life,
your energies to.
90 ___________________________________________________
You know a few fundamental facts that most of the world
does not know, since their “knowledge” and “science” is based
on lies. They may believe in My existence to some extent,
although a lot of them don’t, but most of them certainly aren’t
aware of the extent to which the Enemy is in charge of their
realm, influencing their perception of things, in fact, controlling
it via his educational system and the media.
You know that your ultimate destination is a much better place
than anything you’ve seen in the physical realm.
You also know that you’ve got Me not only fighting by your
side, supporting and helping you, but even fighting for you, and
with millions of powerful co-fighters on our side in the spiritual
realm.
And you know how this war will end, and you don’t have to
wonder about who will be the victor, even if right now it may
seem as though you’re vastly outnumbered.
If you just focus on the facts that you do have, you’ll probably
be better off than focusing on the holes in your story or picture.
Just trust that I will fill those in due time.
I like My people to walk and operate by faith. I want to show the
whole universe that faith in Me – even without having all of the
facts about Me straight – is better than their supposed
“knowledge” consisting of thousands or even millions of so-
called “facts,” that will some day crumble underneath them and
take them to a very unhappy ending of their episode.
As vague as your perception of My Kingdom may be for you, I
want to prove that it’s still a lot more reliable, more lasting and
safer ground to put your feet on, than that concoction they label
“reality” at present, upheld by their feverish efforts to churn out
tomes and tomes of information about it, most of which simply
happen to be fundamentally flawed by the very fact that they’re
leaving out of the equation the principal Factor: Me.
The difference between you and them is a very fundamental
one: They’re leaving Me out of their equation and calculation of
all things, and you don’t. Now let’s see who’s going to take
home the better score when the school bell rings. They may be
in the majority and pick on you as the “losers,” but we’ll see
who the real losers will be in the end.
We’ll all find out what teachings will hold ground in the end, and
whether all their “knowledge” will truly turn out to be so much
better than your ridiculed faith.
It’s another classic example of how less can be more: they base
their essence, their worth and supposed superiority on the
quantity of input they have and supposed “facts” they use to
support their world view. All you have is basically one Book,
giving you an outline of the history of the world from My point
of view, along with a few hundred Promises strewn in that I will
take care of you and take you Home when this is all over, and
that I’ll come again and help you clean up their mess when
they’re finished.
It’s one Book against all theirs.
The Devil is supplying them with all that “knowledge” that’s
supposed to ensure their “godhood,” (after all, he promised
them that they would “be as gods” if they’d swallow his input),
and you’re saying, “no thanks, I’m just going to stick with my
humble diet of the bread and water of His Word: the Bible will
just do fine for me, thanks.” – Along with My additional input
that I’m able to give you by means of your availing yourself of
the truths of the Bible, that is.
It’s not based on “scientific facts” nor investigations,
excavations or countless tests in laboratories, and no millions
and billions of dollars are being spent in order to acquire your
wealth of knowledge, it’s basically just faith in that one old
Book put into practice, put to the test. As far as they’re
concerned, you might as well go for a walk on the lake, because
they wouldn’t take one step out onto that water, but you’re
doing it. You’re walking on water, and one day they’ll watch you
sheer running away from them, and running circles around
them, while they’ll stand on their burning shores and won’t
believe their eyes.
So, don’t seek to counter their false facts and falsified evidence
with what they would consider facts and evidence, when that’s
one thing they don’t want to hear and will hate the most and yell
the loudest against, anyway. They don’t want to hear any facts,
period. Their minds are made up, and there’s no sense in trying
to play the game according to their own crooked and bent rules.
No matter what amount of facts you would come up with to
refute and expose their lies, all they would want to do is crucify
you for it anyway. So, instead, just continue to confound them
by ignoring all that barrage of what they call “facts” and
continuing to look unto Me and walking by faith on that very
shaky ground, and on that water that they say is “unwalkable.”
Prove to them that “impossible” has no meaning to Me.
Right now, it’s the Enemy’s heyday, and they’re all gaga over
him, frantically applauding themselves, performing the magic
tricks he taught them. All you’ve got is your humble, quiet little
faith in that humble old Book and My Promises to you in it.
Those who will listen will listen, and eventually learn, and those
who won’t you don’t need to be concerned about anyway.
You may have much less than they, but it’s real, and it’s lasting,
and in the end it will turn out that your less was more all along.
91 ___________________________________________________
Some issues are better addressed in a very low-profile
manner, if you cherish your liberty.
You’re up against a physical majority, and the only way you’re
going to prevail against them is through your faith, which is
what overcomes the world, and not any findings or statistics.
You can’t fight them on their own ground, because they simply
won’t allow any room for truth and real facts there.
What matters is that faith in the truth rules your own heart and
mind and life, and you know that you’re among the true
winners, even if you may be totally outnumbered by enemy
forces, and they pull all the reins.
You’ve got no chance fighting for liberty, freedom of speech, or
even the truth on a political level in a System that is rigged up
and determined to strip the people of these very things,
because what it seeks is utter control of the masses, and not
their happiness or well-being.
After all, if the System is the Devil’s then it couldn’t possibly be
that happy and free land that they always picture it to be.
There’s a lot of lies out there, and while it’s good and important
for you to be able to expose them and define truth from lies,
when it comes to echoing your findings, you’ve got to handle
these things prayerfully.
You won’t read much in Paul’s epistles about the corruptions of
the Roman empire, either, even though he could have written a
lot, but that would have only endangered his relative freedom of
speech and ability to say to his people what was really essential
for them.
They simply knew they weren’t from this world, and they didn’t
have to reaffirm that over and over. They emphasized on the
positive.
Your purpose and goal is not to infuriate the Devil’s people, but
to win and reach My sheep.
92 ___________________________________________________
Once you’re nearing the peak of the mountain, the higher
you get, the more dangerous and strenuous it becomes. You
may not know whether you’re going to make it. But the only
way to find out is to keep trying.
Sometimes the peak doesn’t even look very promising. You
wonder, “So what? What benefit will I get from getting up there?
What’s the use?” Sometimes all that keeps you going is the fact
that I put you there, and if I said it’s going to work and it’s going
to be worth it, then you’re just going to have to believe it, since
your experience has taught you that I never lie, and what I tell
you has always turned out to be the truth.
You figure that if I’m the One Who created you and your
brethren in such an imperfect manner, then perhaps I couldn’t
be all that perfect, either.
But that’s where you’re reaching the wrong conclusion.
You won’t find perfect in this world due to the state it’s in
because of the choices of man, and not because of any failure
on My part. In fact, the way back to perfect is the way back to
Me, and that, of course, is a hard road, because all that’s within
you and every human, which strives to play god itself, will try to
stop you from going that way.
Everybody’s trying to build and accumulate their own little
kingdom with their own little possessions, fences and
populations, instead of giving all that up for the sake of My
Kingdom.
It should prompt you to examine your own life and see where
perhaps you’re guilty of the same.
To what extent are you really forsaking all each day? Or to what
extent do you cling to your possessions, or your rights?
How much do you rely on your own hand to supply your needs,
and how much do you really trust in Me for all of that?
Could it be that you’ve built a new Egypt so close to the shores
of your old one?
93 ___________________________________________________
It would be foolish to see the Bible as anything other than a
foundation on which to build a new building in which you won’t
refuse to also use new building materials, and new and fresh
input from Me and My Realm concerning the manifold
situations you may find yourselves in for which you won’t find a
biblical precedent.
The Bible is not supposed to be the A and O. It is definitely the
beginning, but it’s not necessarily the end, and all that there
ever was for Me to say. No wonder young people have a hard
time relating to Christian religion, if it is devoted to a God Who
is not supposed to have spoken since 2000 years.
There will be situations that will require new and fresh input to
give you guidance and heavenly insight and wisdom on how to
deal with them.
If people would really take the Bible at face value, they would
also avail themselves of the gifts of the Spirit, which include
prophecy. So, the problem isn’t the Bible, but that people don’t
believe it as they should. If they would, then they would also
avail themselves of the living Word, just as My disciples of old
have.
Look at the changes I brought into the official standard of God’s
teachings! And things keep changing, the changes haven’t
stopped there. By fulfilling the law, I did abolish and nullify it in
a sense, and I gave a new law. Those who insist on sticking to
the old law will only time and time again find themselves
crashing into the wall of their inability to ever keep it, and those
who recognize My new law also recognize that it’s not
something brittle, stiff and inflexible, but it is alive, and adapts
to each individual situation, since in every situation that
involves My children, lots of heavenly counselors and helpers
are involved, and each situation is judged on its own merits.
Contrary to worldly courts, the courts and judgments of the
celestial Realm are always completely just and fair.
I will always give you the additional necessary wisdom,
strength, love and insight to make it through those new trials
and unprecedented situations unscathed.
I’m not alone working on your behalf, but there are countless
saints working around the clock on your behalf and your
situation as well, fighting hard to bring about the best possible
outcome in each of the things you have to go through.
What’s going on is a lot more detailed and intricate than you
thought, and you can’t just generalize and find one general
theme or “solution” or label for it all. It involves a lot of
counseling, it requires a lot of looking deeper, also at the
crevices in your own life, and a more thorough glance at what
you could possibly do in addition to the way you’ve been trying
to handle this.
There is something new to learn out of every situation.
“The unexamined life is not worth living,” Socrates said, and in
many ways he was right. It takes a deeper look at everything,
including the degree to which you live up to your own
responsibilities, in order to really get out of life all that it is
supposed to teach you. Sooner or later each life will be
examined and what will have been gained will be summarized,
so it’s only reasonable and recommendable to begin that
process during your life-time, and before the final exam.
It is good to reflect on oneself and pose the question “What
have you done with your life?” and not just wait for that day
when you will be asked that question by Me. After all, that is
what all this amount of heavenly counsel is all about, to help
you assess your life and the path you’ve been walking and find
out how you’ve been doing so far, what things you could do
better and what pitfalls you should learn to avoid in the future.
I’m helping you to go through life as we examine step by step
and day by day the progress made, the gains and the losses,
the mistakes made, and the lessons gleaned from them, instead
of just blindly rushing into it to pursue what you want and
crave, as so many people do.
There is a purpose to life, and too few people care to ever find
out and study and elaborate on it.
The challenges I’m presenting you with require more than just a
haphazard glance and an optimistic attitude of “Of course I’m
going to manage this.”
There is also a responsibility, a greater demand for you to pay
attention to the details, and a certain duty to avail yourself of
your privilege, and I’m making sure you’ll have a reason to
come before Me anew each day.
You can’t handle your life on your own, but only with My help.
But who ever said that you were supposed to handle it on your
own? Together with Me and all My helpers available to you it
can be more fun, and even seemingly insurmountable
challenges can turn out to be a thrill, and not something to be
dreaded.
94 ___________________________________________________
People always blame Me for things that they themselves are
responsible for. I did not cause the repercussions of the Fall of
mankind, but man’s own choices did. I did not bring war into
the world, man did. I did not give in to temptation, but man has,
over and over and over again.
The only thing I can offer you is a way out of that vicious cycle.
Every time you fall into temptation you give birth to another evil
that you’re going to have to deal with later. So, you can’t really
blame Me and say, “You’ve sent me this evil,” but somehow
you have brought it upon yourself.
A status quo sets in, and I send along My prophets and
messengers to defy it, the result usually being an upheaval that
the conservative forces strongly resist.
Of course, the Devil and his people also pose as some sort of
“revolutionary force,” and they think that they’re fighting for a
truly righteous cause in bringing about the “New World Order,”
and they like to picture the religious, and especially the
Christian elements of society as the conservative forces, but we
know that that’s only possible because he has done all he could
to keep them content and lull them to sleep spiritually.
When Christianity was born, it came into a world that was ruled
by an already beginning to be stagnant empire, and it came as a
force of radical change, and it did change the world of its era.
The Devil’s forces tried to stamp it out for three centuries until
they realized that the only way to truly overcome this
dangerous enemy was by joining them and infiltrating them
from within, causing Christianity to become a conservative
force itself, instead of the revolutionary force of change and
renewal it had been up until that point.
It’s a struggle to stay alive and to keep the flame burning, and
to keep revoluting, and to remain a force for change, and a
source of life, and not fall into the trap of stagnation and
solidification.
Your most dangerous and deadly enemies are not the kind who
keep you on your heels and on guard, but those forces which
make you feel comfortable and at ease in this world, with
nothing left to fight against, and pretty soon after that, not
much left to fight for, either.

“Thou shalt not kill,” but it would be unpardonable to break the

hypocrisy, what a sick religion, and no wonder most of the
rational world doesn’t want to have anything to do with it!
Just as the Jews have gone astray and have become a people
that opposes Me and fights Me and hates Me, and have
continuously resisted My prophets, so the churches have
become not fighters for My Cause as much as fighters against
My Cause on a large scale, by giving the world a false sample of
what Christendom is supposed to be like, of what I am truly like,
and by resisting My new prophets and messengers throughout
every era since the Early Church.
Most churches, which are part of the System, and don’t even try
to offer a way out of it, because they don’t even see a need for
any way out of it.
They are lovers of the world, not lovers of Mine. They would
condemn the practice of “Loving Jesus” as perverse or
obscene, while they all the while go a-whoring after other gods,
the gods of this world, and they commit non-stop spiritual
fornication and adultery with this world.
Where the Spirit of God is, there is liberty, and they don’t have
liberty. They are slaves to the System and slaves of the Devil’s
lies, just like everybody else. All they have is a pretense of
freedom.
You’re small, despised and persecuted, and far from perfect,
and you wonder, “How could we be the real thing?”
Well, only because I’ve said so.
But if you have the audacity to just believe Me for My Word and
believe it just because I said so, you will see that you have the
power to make it so. You are it because I’ve said it. What else,
what other proof or authority do you need?
You can’t see it? Well, then walk by faith, not by sight! Just
believe in what I’ve said, regardless of whether you can see it or
not. That’s what I would call faith!
103 ___________________________________________________
I warned My disciples to beware of the leaven of the Scribes
and Pharisees… “A form of godliness without the power
thereof.”
You’ve got to maintain yourselves pure of their influences, and
that’s why I do not recommend listening to their music
excessively and consuming their brackish waters.
Every now and then there will be an exceptionally anointed and
dedicated believer among them, but in general, the description I
gave 2000 years ago is still appropriate: lukewarm.
Money plays a big role in their lives, and preserving their living
standard, so in their sample they’re actually defying My
message that you cannot serve God and Mammon, and that he
that saveth his life shall lose it.
If anything at all, theirs is a sample of what you wouldn’t want
to become like, similar to the way David learned from Saul’s
bad example which mistakes not to make once he was king. Of
course, even David made mistakes, and likewise there have
been mistakes made in the Family, but all in all you can say that
David was a much better king than Saul, and his reign was a
much better one than Saul’s just as you can say that in My view
the Family is a lot better than the churches, though far from
perfect.
It’s not about being perfect, but about doing the best you can.
The problem is only with those who are not at all as interested
in doing My will as they are in what they want for themselves,
and thus defy Me in blatant disobedience and rebelliousness.
There’s a difference between slipping and making mistakes in
your efforts to obey Me, and a general attitude of defiance,
rebellion and outright disobedience.
The problem is that those like Saul never really see their own
failures, all they see and are concerned about is their position
of power and they jealously defend them from any potential
intruder or competitor… Power games such people play.
Whereas David would have rather given up his kingdom to his
son Absalom than have him killed… He didn’t care as much
about his position as he did about his family. He had learned
that power and position weren’t the all in all…
The house of David should stay clean of the influences of the
house of Saul as much as possible.
You’re better off not spending excessive time on wading
through the brackish waters the churches are producing…
Even the most radical among them are stuck in the church
system with no way out.
Where will they go?
They don’t really know what it means to forsake all, take up
their crosses and lay down their lives to follow Me, no matter
how much they sing about it.
You’ve got the truth. You’ve got the Spirit. You’ve got My living
Word and the weapons that are going to help you fight and win
this war for Me.
Numbers were never something I went by, since I am not
restricted to save by many or few. Numbers are irrelevant to Me
when it comes to being “outnumbered” by Enemy forces.
A small minority with God can be more than sufficient a match
against a physically superior enemy.
Wait and see if I will not fulfill My Promises and lead you on to
victory!
104 ___________________________________________________
“The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” But then again,
when you’re weak, you’re strong, because My strength is made
perfect in weakness. I know your frame and that you’re but
dust, and that’s pretty much what you feel like, and you’re
wondering, “Well, if we’re supposed to be doing all those great
feats, then why don’t You blow on us, since we can’t raise
ourselves up into the air to be Your diamonds of dust?”
There’s a fine line between rushing ahead of Me and before My
anointing comes down on you, or before you’re ready for the
job, and waiting too long, and you want to make sure you hit the
right moment to move forward, and not miss out on My
“Forward, March!”
But while I have generally given the battle call for My overall
army already, there are different times to attack on each
individual field.
What you can do in the meantime is put out the sign posts that
will identify you as those who warned them of their fate when it
will hit them, and stay in tune with Me and on the look out for
any move and signals for you to make yours.
With a lone guerrilla force of the kind your little team presents,
you have to assess what is the greatest kind of damage you can
inflict on the enemy, and wait for that golden opportunity.
105 ___________________________________________________
I did not intend to have a perfect organization to present to
new believers, lest they should become sidetracked by the
organization and get their focus off of Me. I intend to be their
Home and their true Companion, and the main part of their new
Family, the Central Point of exchange of communication, and
their main focal point.
That’s why the only ones who make it are those who maintain
Me as such and keep their focus on Me, not on any person or
group of persons.
The only way anyone is going to make it successfully to the
goal in the faith life is by keep their eyes on Me.
People who hinge most of their faith and give most of their
attention throughout their life to a person or group don’t have
the same kind of lasting anchor to hold them once that person
or focal point is gone… They have sown to the visible, tangible
and perishable, and have thus reaped the loss of the same and
the pain that comes with it…
It’s not that it’s wrong to strongly love another person and miss
them, but it shows why I have made it preeminent to put Me in
the first place of your lives, and not behind anyone or anything
else: it’s the only way to protect you from such pain.
In many cases I use that pain in order to drive home to them the
point of just how finite this life really is, contrary to what seems
to be their attitude most or some of the time, during which they
keep abusing their bodies without ever expecting to pay any
consequences.
It shows the pain that is harvested from a life invested in the
faith in the here and now, the tangible, the immediate
gratification, rather than something as obscure and distant (in
their minds) as My Cause or the entire concept I stand for,
which may come across (to them) as somewhat chaotic or
otherworldly, and thus a little difficult for them to grasp.
Even though their lives seem more stable than yours on the
surface, what they don’t realize is that everything within their
lives is moving and drifting toward that point of death, and
they’ve got their faith attached and anchored to subjects and
objects within that moving frame, and once one of those factors
fails or disappears, they fall, too. Whereas your faith is attached
to the only stable and unmoving Factor – unmoving even in
relation to death and Eternity.
This is the true meaning of verses like, “I am the Lord, I change
not,” or “Jesus Christ, yesterday, today and the same forever,”
which indicate that I am a steady, unmoving and stable Factor.
In fact, the only stable Factor compared to all those other
moving objects that slowly and maybe unnoticeably, but
nonetheless inevitably slide towards death and perdition.
The only thing that will never move away from its place in your
life, and that will always be a constant, steady, and equally
valuable Factor in your life, am I.
If you want to cling to something unmovable, unchanging, a
truly reliable and steady Factor in your life, as opposed to all
the other fleeting subjects and objects in your life, the smartest
thing to do is to put your faith wholly in Me.
I need desperate people, not people who have it all together and
figured out without My help. I need folks who don’t have a clue
without Me. I need believers who truly realize – or at least begin
to do so – how empty and futile their lives and any attempts to
accomplish anything truly good and lasting are without Me,
without utterly clinging to Me and making Me their major and
principle point of focus.
That’s why I said to the young man who said he wanted to serve
Me but first wanted to bury his father: “Let the dead bury their
dead!” I was giving this young man a chance to hinge his life on
something more than all those moving and fleeting factors and
instead invest it in the one stable Cause and value that would
not perish. Everything else, by comparison is dead. If I am the
Life, then anything other than Me that is not attached to Me or
dedicated to Me, is equivalent with death.
Death is the ultimate proof which shows what they have been
investing their lives and their faith in: either in fleeting and
perishable factors, or the Eternal and lasting. It is also the one
crucial measuring device by which you can tell just how many
are on the wide road to perdition, and how comparatively few
are on the straight and narrow way to life.
If you hinge your faith in this world and the things in it, even the
people in it, with all their perishable things and momentary
interests that seem so all-important to them at the time, but
fade as easily as a flower in the field, then you’re clearly
missing the point, and you will find out that you’ve been
heading down the wrong track of perishable things. You
yourself may be saved, but everything else – all you have built
upon that life – will perish and go down the drain, and the only
thing remaining will be your shriveled little neglected faith and
relationship with Me.
So, even if those people may have a hard time relating to your
attitude to death, it’s not you who are off on this, but it truly and
sadly just shows how far off they have been all along.
They may either resent your faith or be drawn towards it and
share in your strength and in what you’ve got…
If they want to dwell in their pain, then that will be their choice.
Of course, you can’t expect of them to embrace your views
from one day to their other, either. But if you can just give them
a little glimpse of hope and strengthen their faith in the fact that
to know Me is to have eternal life, then it will be worth it. At
least you can be a pillar in their midst and a silent testimony to
that fact.
106 ___________________________________________________
There are special places on earth, and I’d like you to
appreciate it when you’re in one of them, and cherish the
opportunity, and soak up and absorb all you can of its spirit,
because it’s not to be taken for granted.
There is no coincidence about the place of your birth…
You’re My agents of light in this world of darkness…
Look at all the fuss they’re making about My birth place.
Even if Bethlehem is far from the peaceful little village it used to
be, and it may even resemble a little bit of hell on earth
nowadays compared to what it used to be, yet it’s probably the
most famous small town of that size in the world…
There is something special about the places that were chosen
for your births, and all those little details will make sense as
they add up to the puzzle of the Big Picture…
There’s a connection between birth and death…
Those are just simple clues to shove you in a certain direction
that you will probably remember at the right time, when you’ll
be able to connect the dots and it will make sense.
You’re My connection between Heaven and earth. You can
bring little glimpses of Heaven that I give you to those who are
interested, and pass them on.
Just as everything physical has come from the water, so
everything spiritual has also originated in the same spot, and
the beginning and the end both wind up in the same place…
Just as the rain is a constant reminder from whence you came,
so the rain of My Spirit reminds you of the place your spirit
came from, and to which you will return.
I like for My children and disciples to know what they believe in,
and I like to answer their questions.
I’m generous by nature, not stingy, and I’m communicative by
nature, not secluded or withdrawn.
I may be a little hard to find, initially, but usually only if you
haven’t learned yet how to look and seek Me properly and to
point your antenna in the right direction.
But once you’re gotten to know Me, you know that I’m quite
communicative, open, and more willing to give than you are to
receive.

certain point in time, and a certain degree of maturity.

It’s hard to grasp that something so simple could be so
important. You’d like to tell everybody and shake them, “Listen
up! This is important! It’s really important to listen to what God
has to say!” It’s so obvious that everybody’s kind of
embarrassed about it, with an attitude of “Well, obviously! You
don’t need to tell us that!” But then still, nobody ever really
does it! Nobody makes a regular habit and custom out of
simply listening to Me, even though that would be the simple
and yet all-encompassing answer and solution to all their
troubles, questions and riddles…
The simple truth, and single most significant fact of the
universe hidden right there in plain view in front of everybody’s
nose: “How could we have prevented all that trouble? How
could we have done better? How could we not have muffed it?”
“We could have asked Him!”
You could have even just asked Me, “Could You please help me
to solve this problem?” instead of trying to figure it all out by
yourself or feeling so sorry for yourself, figuring, “Well, I bet
this one would just be too hard for Him, anyway!”
Well, try Me! Put Me to the test and give Me that thing, that
problem you think is too hard for Me to solve!
I’m really sorry that you seem to be having this problem that
seems to be so big and immense to you that you couldn’t
possibly imagine how in the world I should be able to cope with
it, but I would just like to humbly ask you anyway to indulge Me,
and just give Me a chance anyway. Just let Me give it a try! And,
well, if I don’t manage, you can still go on and weep for
yourself…
But I can almost guarantee and prophesy that a whole lot of the
problem has probably got something to do with your
disbelieving attitude already, and if you would only have more
of a positive attitude, a believing attitude of faith, you probably
wouldn’t even have that problem, because according to your
faith be it unto you!
If you don’t have the faith for it, if you don’t have the faith to ask
for it, believing that you will receive, then of course you won’t
receive, either…
Maybe the root of the problem is that you have not because you
ask not…
So, just remember how tremendously easy the answer to all
your problems is… just ask!
110 ___________________________________________________
Every day is a battle royal between My will for you, that
which I want for you, and your own will, similar to the way you
notice that your will for your children doesn’t always coincide
with their own will and what they want to do. What they want to
do usually varies from what you would like them to do, and it’s
a trial and a challenge for you to try to get them to see that their
time might be better spent in a different way than the activity
they choose.
Imagine that you would know with a hundred thousand times
greater clarity just what would be the right thing for your child
to do, the activity that would truly make her happy, but instead
she insists on just doing whatever she deems best… Well,
that’s how it is for Me a good deal of the time.
The Enemy will do all he can to divert you and distract you from
what I want from you, from tuning in to My voice, or yielding
your will to Mine. He will fill your head with “own” ideas of what
would be a good thing to do, usually the thing one grade below
the best you could do for Me.
The best and My highest will for you is a small and narrow
pathway strewn with many temptations and detours that may
look a lot more inviting, but if you want to avoid running around
in circles or beating the air, you’ve got to keep walking on that
small and narrow path, and not fall for the wide and comfy
detours of the Enemy.
Your own intuitions or notions can sometimes go clear against
My highest will for you, and you’ve got to shoot for a higher
wavelength than just the first best thing that pops in your mind
to do.
You’ve got to double-check and keep checking, “Lord, is this
really Your best, and what You want me to do?”
So often you take for granted the obvious, or that since it
popped into your mind, of course this is what you should do,
but you’ve got to “try the spirits” that tell you how to invest
your precious time!
Stay on My wavelength and keep seeking Me and My will for
you, keep shooting for the higher mark than the second best
the Enemy would try to get you to settle for.
111 ___________________________________________________
Tiny is relative. Just because the world is tiny compared to
the rest of the universe, it isn’t that tiny for you, is it?
In fact, it’s got exactly the right size, as does the rest of the
universe, as people will discover some day.
Everything is the way it should be, and the way it can function
best, except for the disturbances caused by the Enemy, which
will soon be put to a stop.
Man would prefer to have everything within a smaller frame,
one a little more comprehensible for the average mind, more
calculable and more clear-cut, so that he could say, “Well, it’s
quite obvious that things are such and such. The absolute truth
is such and such, and there is no deviation…” It might make
things easier in some ways, but it would also automatically
eliminate free choice, if it would be so obvious how wrong the
wrong path really is…
So, things are a little more complicated, a whole lot less
transparent and clear than man would have it, which also
makes it a little harder for him to believe how a God in His right
mind could have ever created such a seemingly chaotic world.
Because how carefully designed and how intricately it is truly
organized only appears upon second or third glance.
The universe is made in such a way that it cannot all be figured
out easily upon first glance, analyzed and wrapped up in a
single formula, and then to be said of: “Here, this is it. All
you’ve got to know. Nothing more to find out…” It takes a bit of
a greater effort to figure it all out than even today’s advanced
scientists have managed.
They’re wracking their brains on that challenge to outsmart
God, to show that they could either do without Him or outsmart
Him, and that’s in a way precisely why it is a bit more
complicated than some would have it. It’s a constant testimony
to the fact that it’s not all that easy to outsmart God, and that a
Genius has been at work here; a Master Mind indeed, and well,
if you want to try to beat Him at His own game, good luck!
Of course, it doesn’t exactly help in man’s quest for the
universal truth and explanation of everything that the Enemy is
not interested at all in having man find out the whole truth
about the universe, because it would unmistakably point toward
a Creator. He wants to keep everyone in the dark, so that he can
come strutting in as the great light-bringer and illuminator of
mankind…
He has already tried to establish that I couldn’t have been it,
since it wouldn’t make much sense to the average person how
the Son of God should have lived such a humble, short life, and
died such a humiliating death. That’s certainly not his idea of
divinity, and those who are just as short-sighted as he is, agree,
and are getting ready for a taste of his act instead. Well, time
will tell which of the two makes more sense in the end.
Just because you can’t figure it all out, or because it’s not the
way you would prefer to have it, doesn’t necessarily mean that
it’s not the best way it could possibly be, and better than what
you might have come up with…
Just because God’s way doesn’t coincide exactly with man’s
way doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s bad. In fact, just a little
more of wait and see will reveal just how much better God’s
way will turn out to have been all along than man’s way,
especially since generally, man tends to fall for the
explanations and dogmas of the deceiver.
There are doubtlessly a lot of ideas around, and some of them
might sound great. But the question is which of them contains
the truth?
Faith will lead to true knowledge. Lack of faith will often only
lead to science falsely so-called. Men of faith are those who will
climb the un-scaled walls and sail the uncharted seas that will
lead to new, revelatory views and aspects, whereas those who
don’t possess faith other than in what they can see, will usually
only find another abyss for them to stumble into. You get what
you’re looking for. If it’s answers you seek, and are open for the
truth, even if it may be way beyond that which you’ve been told
to accept as such, according to the conventions of so-called
science, then you will find it. However, if your mind is closed to
such, you’ll only wind up in the same dead-end street along
with the rest of the unbelievers, until things will be made
unmistakably clear that those who walked the path of faith were
right, after all, much to the chagrin and shame of all those
supposedly smart people…
112 ___________________________________________________
Just as with your children, whom you have to let go and
follow their own inclinations up until a certain point, even if it’s
in a direction that you know is less than the best option, I also
have to let you go to find out for yourself where it’s at, or where
it’s not at.
Worldly people principally look for their own advantage, for
their motives are greed, envy and lust for power, and not love.
Their ambitions all lie in the here and now, and that is where the
difference should be between you and them. You are called to a
higher purpose than just temporal matters, and if they want to
pull you under their yoke of temporal ambitions, that’s a
warning sign that this is not where you belong.
The more serious it gets, the more they demand of you, no
matter how ridiculously little they may be giving you in return.
The Enemy will always require “Cesar’s pound of flesh” for
anything he will “give” you, even if it’s merely an “opportunity”
for you to work for him and be his slave in return for his meager
wages…
The Devil’s “generosity” is a different kind than Mine, and I
need you to experience and learn all these things in order to
appreciate Whom you’re serving, and thus put your whole heart
into your service for Me.
I want you to find out why it pays to trust Me and put your
efforts on My side and invest your time and energy into My
Cause, not theirs.
What other ambitions do they have but material gain and to see
their own names in the limelight? Can you identify with that and
make that your cause, too? No, you can’t. Your job is not to
preach yourself, but Me, and to serve God, not Mammon.
You cannot make their ambitions the same as yours, nor allow
yourself to fall into their way of thinking, their way of seeing
things, and start acting the same way and out of the same
motivations.
What do you really have in common with them?
It’s one thing to find common ground as long as you’re
witnessing and ministering to them, but once you see they have
basically rejected you and your message, and all they do is try
to find fault with you, restrict and enslave you and tell you
which way you’re supposed to burn, then it’s time to wake up to
the fact that they have made their choice, and it’s not for you,
your cause or your faith, but merely for themselves, the way of
all flesh.
When one’s only cause has become their own advantage, it has
become a sad cause indeed.
113 ___________________________________________________
People blame Me for the chaotic state their world is in when
it was really and always have been their own choices that were
responsible for the chaos and the mess. In the beginning it was
all good, and I mean GOOD.
But then what happened?
Man invested the truest of all currencies, namely faith, in the
words of the Deceiver, instead of Mine, and that created a whole
new paradigm, a whole new worldview, call it another “matrix”
if you wish, because not only is a man as he thinketh in his
heart, but his world will be effected by his thoughts and the way
he sees everything, too.
If what motivates man is the achievement of Satan’s promise,
“Ye shall be as gods,” then his world will be affected by it. You
want to become gods? Well, go ahead then, and let’s all find out
what will be the outcome of this. Go ahead and reshape the
world according to your own ideas, and make the best of it you
know how, and let’s all see what will come out of it.
I’m basically leaving the world under your control. Yours and
the Devil’s, that is, since the majority of people seem to prefer
his leadership over Mine.
Another mistake many people make in their equation and
analysis of everything is that they think that the here and now is
all they’ve ever got, but it’s not.
I speak of eternal life and of Heaven, a better place, throughout
My Word, and if they refuse to believe that, I cannot really help
them.
All that really matters is whose promises you believe and put
your faith in. Is it the Devil’s, your scientists’, your politicians’
or Mine? They all may be promising you a glorious future, but
since the things they say all differ from each other, only one
can speak the truth, and only one of those glorious futures is
actually going to happen.
Who will have invested his faith in the right version or
promises, and thus will have built their lives on the right and
true foundation will be revealed in the end. Until then it may
seem as though they are the winners and you are the losers,
but momentary appearances can be deceiving and the final
result may be quite surprising, at least for those apparent
“winners,” so, hang on to your seats and to your hats, because
the show isn’t quite over yet.
If they want to base their lives on appearances, instead of
thoroughly investigating what really is truth, then that’s their
decision. If they would really be interested in the truth, they
wouldn’t settle for lies so easily. But the lie simply sounds more
appealing to most of them: being their own boss and own little
god sounds better to them than having to kowtow to some
Head Honcho they haven’t seen and they don’t have the faith to
talk to. It has always been easier to trust in what you can see.
But whether it will turn out to be the more rewarding option
remains yet to be seen.
114 ___________________________________________________
If you can take everything: life, the universe, your
circumstances, etc. where it’s at, and trust Me for it all, that it’s
really just proportioned for your best, and trust that I’m not
purposely withholding any good thing from you, as I promised,
then life can become the full, round thing for you that it’s
supposed to be. You won’t stare at the empty half of the glass,
or the hole in the donut, but at what’s there to enjoy.
You’ve got to trust in My fairness and justice and take
everything giving thanks, and not murmur in your heart about
somebody else getting more than you.

This is not your resting place, not your Home, not the place
where you belong, but you’re just a pilgrim and stranger in this
world. I cannot fulfill all your desires yet.
The Real Thing is yet to come; this isn’t it! Some things are
worth waiting for!
If you look at the universe, you can see great precision there:
all the measures, the strengths of the forces, as well as the
timing with which the stellar bodies move and revolve around
each other is carefully designed and planned. So, what makes
you think that I would muff up the timing for certain things in
your life? There’s a time for everything under the sun: a time for
need and a time for plenty; a time to sow, and a time to reap. In
order to reap, you’re first going to have to sow. Now, reaping
may sound a lot more like fun than sowing, I know. But the work
has got to come before pleasure, and you’ve got a job to do for
Me before I can pay you for it.
If people want luxuries they usually wouldn’t be able to afford,
they work extra hard for them. They work overtime or take on
second or third jobs in order to afford what it is they want.
So, if you want greater blessings from Me, you might have to
work a little harder for Me, too, even if all you can do is pray
harder for those things, and do the best job you possibly can
with what you’ve got already. But I can’t give you more than
what you’ve already got when I see you’re only doing a
mediocre, half-hearted job with that. Once I see you’re really
putting your whole heart into it, instead of staring longingly into
the distance for that piece you consider missing from your
donut, I might do the miracle of putting it there.
It’s appreciating what you’ve already got and making the best of
it, and investing the talents I did give you wisely that will bring
you more, greater rewards and dividends.
But criticizing Me for what I’ve given you, murmuring in your
heart about it, and failing to appreciate it, won’t get you the
perfect world you’d like to be living in. That’s just the same
attitude all those self-righteous people have who look at the
flaws in the world and say, “Well, a perfect God would have
certainly come up with something better than this less-than-
perfect world.” What they don’t know is that it was perfect to
begin with, but it has deteriorated due to man’s own choices.
You can reverse that process again with your choices, but in
order to make the right choices, you’re going to have to have
the right attitude of trust in Me, and really prove that you’re
going to put your faith in Me this time around, and not the
empty promises of the Enemy.
Once you’ve replaced whatever has been propelling your life
forward haphazardly in a questionable direction with the proper
fuel, namely true and strong and pure faith in the fact that I
know what I’m doing, even if it may not seem like it to you, then
your life will also be steering toward the perfection that I had
originally intended for man.
But you’ve got to run your life on the right stuff in order to get
there, and not rely in any way on the deceptive input of the
Enemy!
115 ___________________________________________________
You must not look at how people receive you or react to
you, but solely to Me and trust Me for whether you’re faring
alright or not.
According to people who couldn’t care less about Me and My
opinion in the first place, of course, you’re no hit.
But who would want to be one in their world, and according to
their criteria, by which one becomes popular? 116 ___________________________________________________

and playing exactly the same silly game everybody else is
playing. I’m yearning for someone daring to be different, and
not just different on the outside, or different for being-
different-’s sake, but genuinely different; different as in “Not of
this world;” different as in “Ye have not chosen Me, but I have
chosen you and ordained you that you should go and bring
forth fruit...” a different kind of fruit than what they’re bearing
with their lives! What kind of fruit are they yielding? They who
only live for themselves? They’re not sowing, and they
definitely don’t gather with Me, so they must be doing the
opposite. He that gathereth not with Me scattereth abroad.
It’s relatively easy to get mutual approval from folks who do it
exactly the same way you do. You pat each other on the back
and say, “Hey, yeah, we’re great,” and it works for some, and I
can use that.
I have given others, particularly of the younger generation, this
way of finding support in each other.
But I want you to find your support in Me, as a beacon and a
comfort for all those who might not have a big group to turn to
for support, either, but may have to fend for themselves on their
own somewhere, due to some series of circumstances…
I never said anywhere that you all had to be the same in order
to please Me or make it good, all I need for each of you to do is
to follow and obey Me individually, and if you cannot get any
personalized instructions, well, then you still have the general
instructions I gave the leaders of the flock.
You’re still following, still supporting the main body, whereas
others have gone their own way as soon as they thought they
were strong enough and got some of their own ideas. What
counts is that the ideas and inspirations are Mine, and not so
much your own.
If people would learn to let Me do more for them, and seek to
cooperate with Me, and allow Me and My natural ways to
coexist with them, and if they’d avail themselves of My
guidance, My power and My blessing, things would definitely
turn out better than all their feverish activities and attempts to
reshape and recreate the world according to their own ideas…
Again it’s a matter of trust and faith: they believe and trust in
themselves, their own wits and strength; you trust in Me.
That’s already enough reason to resent you for the average do-
it-yourself citizen. They can’t comprehend n how anyone can
dare to refuse to join in their feverish doing and accomplishing,
and just rely on God to see them through. It’s outrageous for
them! - Almost completely beyond their comprehension.
Of course, it’s envy, too, because they see you don’t have to
wreck yourselves the same way they think they have to and do,
just in order to merely survive! They know you’ve got
something they don’t, that they’re too proud to ask you for or
even to accept from you if you offer it to them. They’re afraid of
the new, the unknown, the different. All you can do is
encourage them, calm them down and show, “Relax, there’s
nothing to worry about! God loves you and doesn’t mean you
any harm. He’s better to you than you could be to yourselves, if
you just give Him a chance!” Show’em I’m nothing to worry
about or be scared of; that I’m actually quite loveable. For those
who reject Me, life becomes hard all by itself. I don’t really have
to do anything, and it’s not as if I would punish them. They
punish themselves…
And it’s a good thing to ask them why in the world they would
want to do that, when they could have so much love…

121 ___________________________________________________
Leave behind all those things that are bothering you, that
may seem so important at the moment and seem to take your
mind by storm, and come to Me and let Me revamp your
concepts, your perception and your vision and focus for the
day.
Let Me wipe the slate clean and give you a new menu, free of all
the things that would occupy your mind, and put on My mind
instead. Simply let Me take over.
It’s an act of letting go, a spiritual forsaking all, and emptying
yourself of what occupied your mind before and letting Me fill
you with My input, usually with the result of your satisfaction
and finding out that it was infinitely better than all those
mundane thoughts that plagued you previously.
It’s all pretty much wrapped up in the words, “Looking unto
Jesus…;” you’ve got to keep your focus on Me and away from
all these other factors that try to drag you down.
You mustn’t fall for their lures and their attempts to tie you
down in their same old two-dimensional world with no way out!
You’ve got to stay Up Here with Me! You’ve got to remain a
mountain man!
Yes, they will resist you! Yes, they will shun, avoid and reject
you, and it’s a pretty lonely, rugged path up that mountain, and
you may often wonder, “Why have they all forsaken me? Could
I be on the wrong path, after all?”
But time will do the talking and reveal that their path just turned
out to be the usual, much-traveled broadway to destruction.
They may have painted it to look almost exactly like your
mountain path, just the way Hollywood can make things look so
deceivingly real, but in the end it will turn out to have been just
another fake, because the true path is simply that lonely,
forsaken and forgotten road that not many will travel, where
their only true Companion is Me, and the few who have walked
it found out that I was truly more than enough.
Sure, I’ll be with some of the others, too, and comfort them, and
let them experience whiffs of My Spirit, as much as they allow
Me. But truly following Me and being My disciple is another
story indeed, and they will always reject those who walk that
path, because it’s so very different from theirs.
These people try to make it seem as if, “Look, the path that
Jesus was talking about doesn’t always have to be that narrow
road… It can also be that huge highway we have built and we’re
riding down all together, and we’re having so much fun…”
They think it’s some kind of “progress,” and they’ve converted
My path into a comfortable, sociable road that’s easily traveled,
just as easily and comfortably as the System’s. And it causes
you to wonder… “Lord, could it be?”
But you and I know that theirs is not the real thing!
If they would really have the real thing, they would recognize
My voice when they hear it. And some do, but then they try to
get Me to tug along on their conventional way, their usual way,
because they simply don’t have the courage and faith to let go
of Conventional Road and follow Me up Revolutionary Road.
Some will be saved as if through fire, and their works will not
stand before Me. They could have chosen the Real Thing when
they got a glimpse of it! They could have recognized Me in it
and they could have sought to get more of it. But they didn’t
really want it. It was too scary for them, and the other road
looked much more inviting and comfortable… And on they
travel on their usual, run-off-the-mill Conventional Road, pretty
much the same way as everybody else, never really making a
difference for Me, no matter how much they may try to tell
themselves that they are.
You can really only make a difference for Me if you dare to let
go of the conventional way of doing things and have the guts to
follow Me alone, if necessary, up a road that no one has gone
up before.
So, let them get stuck in their morass of worldliness and of the
same old story, but come thou, and keep following Me.
We’ve got a job to do for real! Let them keep kidding
themselves with their games of make-belief. The kind of faith
that’s theirs is make-belief. They pretend they’ve got the real
thing, and go through the motions, but don’t let them kid you:
it’s not!
It’s okay to sympathize with them, show your approval to some
extent, but then it’s time again to follow Me and let the dead
bury their dead.
Sometimes I let you walk a piece of the way with them just to let
you know that their way is not where it’s at, to let you see the
flaws in it, and where the differences are between what they’ve
got and the Real Thing. The Real Thing is always unorthodox,
apart from the norm, shockingly revolutionary and different.
122 ___________________________________________________
As long as you continue to take things personal, you won’t
be able to burn free, fly as high, nor progress in the way that I
would like you to.
You’ll always be vulnerable, instead of becoming practically
invulnerable and invincible due to the protective shield of Mine
you could be wearing!
You’ve got to put on My mantle of peace and humility, that will
make you too small to get hurt. Only the big shots get hit. Only
big egos can get hurt or offended. Little, humble nobodies
won’t even feel anything.
123 ___________________________________________________
Life isn’t just a singular thing that looks and feels and
operates exactly the same way for everybody, but it’s an
individual thing, too. Everybody has to live it according to their
own abilities. It’s not like everybody can wear the same hat.
It may suit the majority and most people in the army, but it may
not necessarily be everybody’s fit, and there are special
personnel in every army who are not required to wear exactly
the same outfit as the combat soldiers.
There is sanitary staff, cooks and other type of personnel who
won’t be walking about with combat helmets most of the time.
In the overall picture and outcome, you will fit in, even if you
don’t feel called or even capable of doing things the way I’m
leading most of the flock to do them.
It’s not that I’m advocating being special or an exception here,
but I do show tolerance and acceptance for those who are
pretty much inevitably different and an exception, and you all
are special to Me to begin with!
124 ___________________________________________________
Sometimes it takes an effort to get back into the flow,
groove and line of communication with Me, back onto the
wavelength of the Spirit World, when you’ve been indulging in
all that the temporal has to offer.
It’s a channel and wavelength whose frequency or place in your
life is all too easily occupied by other matters, if you allow it to
happen.

claiming the authority over them, along with the moods they
bring, that’s bound to happen, and you will have to fight and put

another while for them to get sick of that lie, and develop a
hunger for the even deeper and more pure truth – the truth and

Of course, it’s not just your mind I need, but your heart also.
Once your heart feels at home and at rest with Me, your mind
will eventually follow.
The more you tell yourself that this is where you belong, the
more the benefits will convince and draw you back to Me, and
the easier it will be for you to come to Me more frequently, and
it won’t take such an effort.
You have to tell your mind who’s the boss, similar to the way
you have to let your child know, since otherwise it will just do
whatever it wants, and obedience becomes harder and harder
then.
You can only train others as well as you have trained yourself,
and you can only convince others of the benefits of yielding to
Me, if you have yielded yourself to Me first.
When your mind wants to run off, give Me your heart, and I will
whisper into it and cause your whole spirit to be steady. I will be
your “Heart Whisperer.”
134 ___________________________________________________
Clairvoyance is really nothing more than a tiny little portion
of God’s quality of omniscience. You simply know something
other people don’t because the all-knowing God has imparted
to you a tiny little bit of the portion of all the stuff that He
knows, which He may not be able to trust regular people with,
but as somebody in the special position of His ambassador, He
deems it appropriate for you to know.
You’re just imparted a little bit of “supernatural” knowledge
from the Spirit World, information that’s not accessible to
anyone but those who have that special connection with the
Spirit World.
Most Christians are scared of this gift, because there are so
many non-Christian mediums making money off of it, but there
is no gift that the Devil’s people have that isn’t a counterfeit
version or imitation of something that God has already given to
and ordained for His children. In other words, there is nothing
for God’s children to be scared off, least of all any of the
supernatural gifts He bestows on His children.
While clairvoyance may not be listed among the “official” gifts
of the Spirit, you can put it in the category of the gift of
knowledge. You’ve been wondering how come knowledge is
listed among the gifts of the Spirit when a lot of what I’ve told
you about knowledge seemed to indicate that knowledge was
almost rather a handicap than a blessing and a supernatural
gift.
While the knowledge of evil could certainly be considered a
handicap, I specialize in the knowledge of good, and that’s what
I like to bestow upon My children.
The things I reveal to you are all good and good to know.
While the knowledge of evil, the Devil’s input, may nearly
always contain some truth in it, it’s his diabolical, evil slant and
twist on it, and the wicked way in which He applies it to get you
to doubt or mistrust Me, that makes it so dangerous.
But once you have subscribed yourself exclusively to the good
Source of true and good knowledge, you can pretty much rest
assured that all I will reveal to you and inform you of will be
good for you and edifying, and nothing to be afraid of, even if
some of the things may sound pretty cataclysmic and scary to
some, like some of the things I revealed to John in the Book of
Revelation, etc.
After a while you’ve come to know and trust that even though
some of the stuff in it may sound pretty scary, if I’m in control
of it, it stands to reason that I know what I’m doing, and I won’t
make a mess of it or allow anything to happen that’s not
supposed to happen and wouldn’t be good in the long run…
The false information of the Devil seeks to get man to place his
trust in himself.
Their minds are polluted his philosophy of “trust no one but
yourself” and “be your own god and master.” That’s what he
did, and he figures it worked for him, and so he’s advertising
his trip: “See here? I didn’t trust God, but decided to do my own
thing & be my own boss, and I’m happy!”
Of course, what he – and some of his followers – define as
happiness, is merely the satisfaction of their lust for power. But
we’ve had a few historic examples of where that kind of
satisfaction leads, as seen from the pitiful endings of the lives
of dictators like Hitler and others, who left a legacy of murder
and bloodshed, and in the final analysis you wouldn’t really
associate the word happiness with their actions or lives.
All those smart, but really unhappy people may have a lot of
information stored up in their brains, but a lot of it is false
information, based on false and twisted definitions.
They hate people who are really and truly happy, and that’s
what they hate most about you: they can’t stand the fact that
you’re actually and truly happy, when they have all the things in
the world that are supposed to make them happy and that
they’ve worked so hard to obtain, but deep down in the hidden,
dark depth of their heart, they know that you’ve got something
that they couldn’t even obtain in a million years with all their
riches and power.
What they had the audacity to deceive themselves into
mistaking as happiness actually turned out to be the epitome of
misery. What greater misery is there than a fake, fraudulent and
pitiful counterfeit version of happiness?
It’s so much like everything the System is all about: a
masquerade. And empty, hollow shell that poses as something
on the outside that in reality, on the inside it’s not. A show and
pretense of happiness, success and satisfaction, whereas in
the moments of honesty they admit that they’re really miserable
inside and lament, “I can’t get no satisfaction.”
If it doesn’t have the fruits of the Spirit and won’t yield that
heavenly peace and contentment, then you can safely assume
that it wasn’t My type of input or knowledge that it was based
on.
So, while they may claim and think to know a lot of things, even
their definition of knowledge varies from Mine. What they may
call “knowledge,” in My book spells, “Something they think
they know,” while I endow My children with true knowledge
from on high, My communications straight from Me, My channel
and wavelength, not the twisted and warped input from the
Devil’s evil, noisy channel.
That’s another reason why it’s so important that you first get
your portion of input from My channel in the mornings:
otherwise you won’t really have a clue what the truth is. You
won’t even know what the proper definition of such relatively
simple words as knowledge and happiness is. You may think
you know something or think you’re happy, but unless you’ve
made sure to allow Me to place some of My real and heavenly
knowledge and happiness there in your heart, what do you
really know at all?
Is that which you think you know really good to know? You can
only be sure if you got it from the right Source – the Source of
everything of which I rightfully said, when it was done, “It is
good.”
It’s only the false input and information of the Devil, the
apostate, that added confusion, error and flaw to My Creation.
So, all you really have is what I give you, and if I give you
everything, then why waste time trying to please anybody else?
If I’m jealous, then it’s only for your sake, because I know
what’s really good for you.
You want some of My knowledge? A little taste of omniscience,
which, when received in frail human vessels, has been termed
clairvoyance? All you’ve got to do is hang with Me, stay on My
channel long enough, and get ready to be filled to the brim with
My good and solid and proper input and knowledge, which
bears the fruit of true happiness, and not their fake, which only
turns out in misery.
My input will make you happy. His will make you miserable…
The choice should be so easy.

136 ___________________________________________________ 138 ___________________________________________________

I specialize in those who plainly can’t make it through life
without Me. I have a special love for those who really and
desperately need Me. Sure, their minds may tell them – like
everyone else – that they can make it on their own, too; that
they are strong enough, etc., but reality keeps knocking on their
window, and experience continues to teach them that they
simply don’t have the strength to make it through this world on
their own, nor without the help from above from Someone that
won’t let them down.
So, if you feel bad about being too weak to make it on your own
through this life, be comforted and know that I don’t see that
weakness as a handicap at all, but rather as a strength and an
asset that will give you an advantage over others who will have
to go the long detour of finding out that making it in their own
strength will not lead them to that closeness with Me where
their innermost heart and core of their being would really yearn
to go.
It’s a privileged position to have been called apart from the
world by Me, and you should see it as a definite advantage, not
a disadvantage or handicap of some kind, as if you were being
left behind or forgotten and ignored.
I need and want you, and I need you to pay attention more
wholeheartedly and dedicate even more of your time and efforts
to My Cause, and less to the System, because you can’t win the
battle half-heartedly.
It’s time to give it your all and put everything you’ve got into
this.
I’m talking about what’s happening between you and Me, your
relationship with Me and whatever I’m telling you to give and
pass on to the world.
What really matters in the first place is your oneness with Me.
Once I have become the Pivot and Centerpiece of your life that
everything else revolves around, then nothing else really
matters anymore, and those other things will either just fade
away or fall into place…
A lot of people have the attitude that whatever path they have
found must be the right one, just because they have found it,
and they cling so tightly to that, which is really nothing more
than an extension of their own selves in many cases, instead of
truly and wholeheartedly clinging to Me.
They try to get anybody to subscribe to and support their
program, and they think they themselves are the center, instead
of letting Me be the true Center of their lives, that’s why they
hardly ever recognize it when someone is in their midst that has
truly made Me the center and most important Factor in their
lives.
They usually only counter it with envy and resistance when
they see it, because they know that there is something there
that they haven’t got themselves; they haven’t been willing to
let go to that extent, they haven’t gone as far for Me or to touch
Me and lay all else aside…
They say it’s their church or their thing that’s the real thing, but
as long as there is still a whole lot of System or ego attached to
it, it cannot be the Real Thing, because only I am the Real
Thing, and the degree to which you become the real thing, too,
is determined by how much your life truly revolves around Me,
and by how much you allow Me to really run and rule and
control your life, by how much time you spend with Me in a real,
living relationship and really touch Me.
I want you to care about Me and what My will for you is. I want
to be your Family! Even if I am the only Member of your family,
I’ll still be more than enough.
People put all this emphasis on their fellowship with each other,
but in many cases it’s sad, because it’s really only a substitute
for a relationship with Me they could and ought to have. Only
once that relationship with Me is established and real, and you
have regular fellowship with Me, does fellowship with each
other also really start making sense and become edifying and
lifting up for anyone.
It’s got to be Me you share at those events, and your personal
experiences with Me, and if you can’t see Me in each other’s
eyes, then what good is it? If the other person seems to be
utterly lacking that living contact with Me, then what common
ground is there to build on, what connection is there?
The only One that can really fill you with anything to give and
Who is going to make company and fellowship with you
worthwhile am I, so it pays for you to spend as much time with
Me as you can in order to have something worthy of passing on
to the people you come in touch with.
Some people think their own flesh, their own personality, wit or
charm is enough. But “without Me you can do nothing” even
applies to fellowship. Without having touched and known Me
personally, there isn’t much you can give or do to make
anybody else really feel better, inspired or uplifted and
strengthened, because all that the contact with you will do for
them is present a confrontation with another ego, just another
wandering star adrift in this world with nothing much to give,
who just wants their own light to be seen and admired a little
bit.
Whereas if you really and truly shine with My light you have
something to give, and you radiate a light and warmth that truly
makes others feel good, and gives them something. You’ve got
to have the fire of the Holy Spirit they can warm themselves by.
And if that’s lacking, if that’s missing, what good is it? What is
it worth? If it’s not Me you’ve got to give to people, to what avail
is it? If it’s not My light you shine forth, isn’t it just another
version of the darkness?
Without Me you can do nothing, give nothing, be nothing that
would ever make a difference in anybody else’s life that would
ever be worth wasting a single breath over.
I can’t force anybody to give their all to Me. But whenever I see
anybody close to that position, I will certainly encourage them,
and fight to eradicate the circumstances and potential lures and
distractions the Devil will send their way in order to make them
just continue in their usual rut of keeping other things on the
top of their list above Me.
Freedom means to be free to just worry about what I’d like from
you…
If you enjoy that freedom and liberty, cherish it as such, and
don’t despise it, lest the fetters of the System will get ahold of
you again.
If you have that freedom, what are you going to do with it? Are
you going to appreciate it or despise it? Will you use it to the
full to bring about the kind of fruit from your life that I’d like to
see you bear?
139 ___________________________________________________
I don’t want you to go by false motivations, to be doing
“some good” in order to feel better about yourself.
Without Me, you can do or give nothing really worthwhile, and
your time with Me has got to come first in order for you to really
have something to give and pass on.
140 ___________________________________________________
First you’ve really got to be convinced of your product
yourself and really sold on what I’m telling and giving you, in
order to have what it takes to pass it on successfully and prove
to people that you’ve got something worthwhile they don’t, and
that they should like to have, also.
The wealthier people are, the more high-minded they also
become and the more they think they are. They base their worth
and significance on their wealth, when I have charged you not
to put your trust in uncertain riches but in the living God Who
gives you freely all things to enjoy.
As long as everything’s still working, they won’t be all too
desperate for a way out, but eventually things will get worse,
and you’ll be happy to be well acquainted with My path that I’m
leading you in, so that you can be a comfort and guide to those
who will be relatively or completely new to this.
I encourage you to keep on the path you’re on. You’re learning.
You’re listening. You’re growing. You’re learning to let Me work
through you, instead of doing things in the flesh that might fall
flat in the long run.
I have lost friends during My life and time on earth due to the
truth the Father had laid on My heart to speak, but it’s better to
lose a few friends than your grip on the truth, because in the
end, what matters is not that you tried to please them, but
stayed true to your path that I and the Father have put before
you and ordained you to walk, even if it won’t make any sense
to even the best of your friends, just as My path to the cross
didn’t make sense to My disciples.
Even if you can only count on one single friend and person to
stand by you, then that’s okay by My Book. Success for Me is
not determined by the amount of friends or fans you have. I
certainly didn’t build My life on that kind of popularity, and I
wouldn’t advise any of My true followers to do so, either.
The need for man-pleasing is just as much a weakness as any
other addiction; that need for constant approval and applause
and affirmation from other people, rather than Me. Usually the
type of people who need that and base their lives on that don’t
have a very strong personal connection with Me, and since they
don’t have the faith to receive personal affirmation and
assurance from Me, they need to get it from elsewhere.

People who aren’t really real on the inside cannot really have a
good and clean connection – the real thing – with Me, the Real
One, either, because they simply don’t have the faith for it. They
subconsciously know that there’s something standing in the
way between Me and them – their self-deception, their lie that
they’re telling themselves and the pretense they think they need
to put on in order to be able to stand to live with themselves.
I alone, and who they are naked before Me isn’t enough for
them. They think they’ve got to have something to show forth in
order to be worthy of My approval; be it the amount of friends
they bring along, or the amount of things they have done for
Me. They didn’t get the point yet that for Me, they, their bare
souls and yielded hearts, is all I care for, and that’s enough for
Me.
Once I’ve got those, I’ll be able to bring forth all the necessary
and desired fruit in their lives…
So, be wise not to go by any of those outward clichés of what
people might expect of you. It’s futile; worthless…
You cannot please everybody all the time, and that’s not what
you should waste your energy on.
So few people care about pleasing Me, and I really treasure
each one who does without wasting their time and energy on
bending over backwards to make it right for everyone or
anyone else…

people came back to thank Me for healing them, you can safely
assume that My true followers won’t experience any differently,
since I told My disciples that they would share the same fate as
I, when it comes to popularity in this world. If they haven’t
thanked Me, they won’t thank You, either.
But I will. And I will repay and more than make up for whatever
you have invested in My work in making it possible for people
to catch a glimpse of the Real Me.
The way to really make Heaven palatable for others is by living
with one foot in it yourself.
Just as they can get glimpses of Me if you keep Me on your
mind in all your actions, they can get a glimpse of Heaven, too,
if you stay heavenly-minded and keep Heaven on your mind.
Show them Heaven!

There’s always more to learn, so there’s always more and
something new for Me to teach you, although eventually in your
life the emphasis will shift from learning to teaching others.
The Devil isn’t fooling around, and his distractions, temptations
and lures aren’t exactly harmless little diversions or nuisances
that can be humored and ignored. They can seriously slow you
down and hinder your progress.
Weaknesses always look uglier in others than they seem to
appear in oneself, and being confronted with a certain
weakness via another person can be an effective cure or
prevention to make sure you won’t fall prey to it yourself.
Don’t forget about the “Jesus Factor” as you go through your
day and try to figure things out, make sense of it all and solve
the riddles. I’m your Ace and relying on Me is your smartest
move. No matter what tricks the Devil may pull, if you avail
yourself of Me, My counsel, My Power, and My Presence, all
that I have put at your disposal, you can’t lose.
That’s why handicaps and unfavorable circumstances are
actually an asset in the long run, because they cause you to
avail yourself of My power and wisdom and help, which is the
best that could possibly happen to you.
So, rejoice in your difficulties! They’re there to make the best
out of you and your life.
There are some things the easy way just won’t do for you.
143 ___________________________________________________
When life asks you to “come out & play,” there are often
surprises involved, new and strange situations and challenges,
requiring you to stick close to the Maker of the game in order to
make all the right moves required. If you base your wisdom
purely and exclusively on the knowledge and experience you’ve
acquired, without any openness to learn new things and adapt
to new situations, then you might wind up looking pretty stupid
in some of those situations and make a mess of things.
Whereas if you put on a student’s attitude, ready to learn
something new from the situation you encounter, then you can
be ready for new lessons, and thus an expansion of your
previous scope, and thus the scope of your wisdom and
experience will grow.
It all depends whether you encounter the situation in a yielded,
ready and open and child-like spirit, or with a wise-guy attitude,
which makes you critical of anything new and different you
encounter… The former will make you grow and progress, the
latter will make you stagnate and shrink your horizon and
scope into a sad little world in your head that simply won’t
allow any growth or newness, constantly limited by whatever
bounds you seek to impose on your little universe.
In the first scenario, you truly let Me be God and show you just
how vast the universe I created really is. In the second, you
insist on being your own god, limiting your own, personal little
universe to all the limitations and boundaries you allow, thus
narrowing your horizon and your capacity to grow and expand
to a fraction of the world that I could show you.
That’s basically what is happening in most people’s minds
nowadays, and why intolerance and discrimination are rampant.
Everybody thinks they’re smart enough to judge who is okay
and who isn’t, and if, according to their judgment, a certain
group or kind of people is not okay, they will discriminate
against them, persecute them, attack them or wipe them out
altogether.
They insist on playing god themselves, instead of allowing Me
to be their God and broaden their scenario and teach them
about the different kind.
If they don’t have any room in their hearts and minds for Me,
the totally Other, then they usually won’t have any tolerance for
different kinds of people, either. This doesn’t mean that there
may not be atheists who may show even more tolerance and
acceptance of other kinds of people than even many supposed
believers, but it just shows that My presence in people’s lives
isn’t necessarily limited to labels such as “Christian” or any
other religious or philosophical drawers and labels, but My
Spirit flows freely into the lowest places and humble hearts and
shuns the proud and haughty of whatever confession and
religious affiliation. – The most perfect examples of which were
the Scribes and Pharisees, who have many modern
counterparts.
144 ___________________________________________________
Being a nobody and just walking through life as an empty
zero, as opposed to a big shot somebody, enables you to totally
zoom into people, get onto their level, instead of judging them
according to the degree to which they are different than you
Of course, if I would have wanted to make things easy for you, I
could have filled your life with people that are just like you. But
what sort of challenge would that be? What sort of growth and
progress would it provoke?
The more comfortable and at ease folks are with their lives, the
less they tend to truly grow, since it’s the difficulties that make
you grow.
145 ___________________________________________________
Being attuned to the Spirit World has many advantages. It
helps you to be more sensitive to the needs of your present
situation, and helps you to tune in to others and their needs
better, to have greater understanding for them, since your spirit
helpers are in touch with theirs, and they can help each of you
to find common ground.
Of course, the more earthbound somebody is, the less likely
they’re bound to be in touch and in tune with their helpers, and
the more difficult it becomes.
When your interests lie in the physical realm, and you’ve got
some ardent desire that you just want to see fulfilled, it
becomes quite hard to be an empty vessel that can just tune in
and receive from the spirit world. As soon as you become
willful, and focused on something you want and just have got to
have, you pretty much block out everything else, and become
virtually deaf to the signals of your helpers and My whispers.
Especially when it comes to your interaction with other human
beings whose range of interests varies greatly from yours in
that particular situation, and thus you seem to have less and
less in common during such times.
So, it’s really one’s own willfulness that stands most in the way
of unity, since it makes you deaf to the needs and desires of
others and makes you focus almost exclusively on your own.
You’re hardest for Me to handle when there is something you
want more than to stay on the straight and narrow road of
pleasing Me and staying in harmony with Me and My will for
you.
146 ___________________________________________________
What you’ll hear from Me will always be the unadulterated
truth, without any personal feelings mixed in, exaggerations or
misconceptions or false interpretations.
The more time you spend with Me, the more likely you are going
to learn to become like Me and do things My way, and the
happier and more fulfilled you’ll also be, because you’ll have
learned how to make others happy, instead of seeking for them
to cater to you in some way.
147 ___________________________________________________
The main reason why I want you to avail yourself of the
advantages and services of the Spirit Realm is so that you can
know and let others know as well that you’re not alone. You
have not been forsaken. You’re in good hands, and no matter
what hard times on earth you may go through, there is help for
you available and close by, accessible to anyone via the hand
of faith and the mere effort of asking for it.
Our interest in bridging the gap between the two worlds is
primarily for your sakes. You are the ones who need help, and
who could be doing better, and that are in need of improvement,
and We can show you how to get it.
There is greater satisfaction for you to be had than just seeking Instead, they just fool around in order to look cool to their
pleasure for yourself. There are greater rewards in the things I peers, and purposely shun Me, their heavenly Parent.
want you to do.
Sowing to the flesh won’t bring you any eternal dividends.
Time is short because the night comes when no man can work,
and you’ll be thankful for everything you did before that to the best way of preparing yourself for such a heroic and
strengthen your own faith as well as that of others.
You’ll be thankful for every moment you invested in your
spiritual preparation and strengthening for that time. Even if
you’re not to experience the Tribulation yourself, you’ll be
grateful for every moment you invest in the eternal instead of
wasting time on trivial, earthly matters and personal
entertainment.
There is a time for everything, and I don’t mind your times of
fun, but I’m trying to reduce the preeminent position that fun
and diversion are having in your life to one of lesser
importance, and establish a better one for Me and My affairs in
your mindset of priorities.
I’m thinking about the greater welfare of everybody involved.
The limitations and boundaries are for your own good. You may
tend to disagree, but you will see in the end that it was so, and
you’ll be very thankful for them.
Sometimes you have to save people from themselves and from
the atrocities they would commit against themselves, and you
cannot just let them go down the road to ruin.
Every individual is a little bit like Pinocchio and would do better
to heed the advice of their conscience than the temptations of
the foxes in this world who promise high life on Pleasure
Island…

There’s nothing you can’t change through prayer. Don’t like
your circumstances? Pray for Me to change’em!
You sometimes lack the approval of others, and you wonder,
“How can I be on the right track if there’s so little approval from
others?” as if approval of others were the one reliable
safeguard to ensure you’re on the right track.
But that would mean that your faith would be based on people,
their applause and reactions to you, and that’s not what I want.
That’s not what spurred Me on, even if some people have
mistakenly interpreted My motivations as such, and there are
still those jealous of My status as a “Superstar,” even though
they miss the point entirely and fail to recognize that that was
one thing I was surely not, even if some are treating Me that
way now, as they do with a lot of their saints post-mortem.
The way they would really treat Me if I were to walk the earth
again as a Man is the way they are treating you, My genuine
representatives for this day and age. You are the ones in whom
My saying is fulfilled, “If they hate and persecute you,
remember that they first did it to Me.”
Being like Me in this world, or being My representative means
you cannot go by the approval of others. Those who really
made a difference for Me throughout history went on with or
without the approval of the masses, or anyone, if necessary,
and went on their own, when necessary, clinging to nothing and
no one but Me.
I always did send them someone to help them do the job, but I
always made sure that I was their primary focus point and the
One they would look to for guidance and approval, and not their
peers.
People look to their peers for approval, instead of the One Who
could really ensure their progress, if they were interested in
pleasing Me, following My guidelines and doing things by My
criteria.

I’m here for you. If you feel empty, I’m here to fill you up
again. I don’t expect you to give or pour out anything from an
empty vessel. I’m the Tap that has unlimited capacity to refill
you over and over again. You may run out of fuel, out of money,
out of strength, out of inspiration for your work, but you’ll never
have to worry that you’ll run out of Me, because no matter what
happens, I’ll always be there for you.
You can always count on My love, My comfort, My being there
for you.
If anything else makes you feel frustrated, don’t worry, that’s
My will, too, and it’s alright, and I allow it to happen, because I
want to be your primary Source of inspiration, joy, fulfillment
and satisfaction.
If you’re dissatisfied with your work that you’ve done, it’s quite
possible that I allow it so that you seek satisfaction in Me
instead. I don’t want you to find fulfillment in your works and
achievements as much as I want you to find fulfillment in Me.
153 ___________________________________________________
I want to liberate you from the grip the System still has on
you in some aspects, mentally and practically so that you can
wholeheartedly serve Me without having to bend over
backwards to please the System and tickle their ears, to focus
and dedicate yourself wholeheartedly to My Cause without any
distraction, without the stress of having to please and entertain
people.
It’s important for Me that you can dedicate yourself to My Cause
wholeheartedly and without distractions.
I cannot spare you to tickle people’s ears and consider that
more important than what I want you to do for Me and My
Kingdom just because it brings in more money.
Money is not what’s relevant. Some people may not believe
that, but it’s a fact, as far as I’m concerned, and especially as
far as you and your life for Me are concerned. My job for you is
more important, and if you do that, I will undoubtedly take care
of you, just as I always have.
This is your freedom! Freedom from the slavery to money,
freedom from fear and worry and pressure the System tries to
put on you by telling you you’re not going to survive if you dare
to buck the tide… Freedom to challenge that ridiculous claim in
My name and power. I have challenged it before, and I will
gladly challenge it again and again through you and whoever
lets Me.
This is your freedom, if it’s freedom you want…

Your own efforts will no suffice. They’re not what the world is
waiting for. They need something more and better than that.
You can never deliver what they need. Only I can. That’s why
what you give to them must never be your own work or effort,
but only what I give you to pass on to them.
If you proceed and do something without asking Me for My
blessing on it, you mustn’t be surprised if it becomes more of a
chore and a drag than a blessing.
I may be able to use those things to some extent, but it’s not
comparable to what I can do through you when you’re totally
yielded…
154 ___________________________________________________
One of the gravest dangers that ever befell My people and
some of My heroes was the temptation to please those I had
called them out from, to please the established society of their
people or the people of God.
I want you to be perfectly free to just focus on My will for you.
Pleasing Me and seeking to please Me is what will get you
places. Seeking to please the System will get you nowhere, just
stuck in the same vicious cycle and treadmill they’re on
themselves and thus would like everyone else to be stuck in.

151 ___________________________________________________
Too much fun makes you feel “at peace” in this world,
when I want you to stay aware of the fact that we’re in a state of
constant war.
There is no peace neither for nor with the wicked, and thus
there is no peace for My warriors in this wicked world and age.
If you want peace, you’re going to have to find it in that Hiding
Place, the secret place under My Wings, in the Shadow of the
Almighty, where the world cannot come.

166 ___________________________________________________
I wouldn’t want your faith to be only in your head.
Your mind may be filled with lots of beautiful ideas and input,
but if your heart doesn’t match with that beauty and won’t meet
the same standard, then it will still reflect negatively on who
and what you are as a sum.
Your heart is determined by your actions and the way you
behave and treat others, more than by what you say. Your mind
is like the ideology that you have embraced by which you would
like to run and govern your life… it’s like the sermon, or the
“commandments.” But your heart is determined by how much
you actually do live in accordance with those thoughts and
words, that ideology, and how much you manage to put it into
practice.
Your heart is determined by the way you live.
While written words have their place, and can be very helpful,
when it comes down to it, there is nothing more helpful than a
person who actually shares the load and walks the road with
someone, instead of one who just shows the way.
Work on the implementation of all that you believe in, putting
skin on it, feet to it, and converting it into real live action!
The world isn’t in need of more good words as much as it is in
need of good samples.
What will really make a difference in this world is people who
don’t only have nice and great ideals in their heads, but actually
manage to live them!
What really counts and really matters is the amount of love you
have.
“Take Time to Love.” How much did that lesson really sink deep
down into the depth of your being and consequently seep
through into your actions, sample and behavior?
How much do all the words really sink down into the depth of
your heart and affect your actions, your sample? How much do
you really allow them to break open and bring forth the
peaceable fruit of righteousness in you?
That’s the difference between righteousness and self-
righteousness: self-righteousness is based on who you think
you are, and may even claim to be, according to ideals,
thoughts and the words of your mouth. But real righteousness
is manifested by the way you act, which shows who you really
are, and how much those ideals and good thoughts and words
in your mind actually come to fruition.
It takes more than a bag full of seeds to make a forest or a field
of wheat. It takes the work of plowing that field, planting and
sowing the seeds, and doing all the work and the labor
associated with that kind of agricultural endeavor… it’s actual
culture that needs to be cultivated, and it’s work, more than just
collecting seeds in a barn…
What will make a difference is how much you will apply that
seed in the real world, and allow it to interact with the rest of the
world, but also in your own heart, visible for others to see and
witness that this kind of grain really does make a difference!
Otherwise, what good is it? If the result is just going to be
another bunch of miserable people barely managing to live
together, what sort of alternative is it supposed to be?
167 ___________________________________________________
The language that speaks the loudest and most clearly is
your actions.
It’s easy to have a high ideological standard by simply
embracing certain high ideals that are supposed to come with
your faith. It’s a little more difficult to be actually living right in
the thick of the battle, and having to live those ideals.
You might have to adapt your mental ideals to the
circumstances of the reality you live in.
You have to adapt your mental standard to the reality that folks
around you actually live in, in order for them to be able to relate
to you. It’s another aspect of becoming all things to all men.
With the world changing as rapidly as it is, it’s simply safest
and best to stay on the foundation that is always right and
applicable in each situation, and always appropriate, and that’s
the language of love.
It’s never the wrong time to do or say a loving thing, and what
the world needs now, just as it did 30 or 40 years ago, is love,
and it’s still the one thing nobody can get enough of, because
there’s less of it around than ever…
So, while the truth is important, and delusion must be
destroyed in order to build a firm foundation of truth on one
hand, it’s equally, if not more important that it’s clear that that
foundation is a foundation of love, and thus recognizable as a
safe haven for those seeking refuge from the debris of their
shattered illusions.
If there’s no safe haven, no beckoning and inviting warm island
in sight that they can come to after realizing their delusion was
not it, then they won’t have the courage to leave what they had
before. There has got to be an alternative, and it’s got to be
more than a mental or ideological one, namely a tangible,
visible and real one, and that’s the difference between having it
all in your head and putting it into action.
168 ___________________________________________________
I’m always with you, but you don’t always remember Me the
way you should, or keep Me consciously on your mind to the
extent you should.
If everywhere you go you keep Me on your mind, then I can also
use you everywhere. If I’m on your mind when you talk to
somebody, I can talk through you. If I’m on your mind when
there’s no one else around, I can talk to you, and you can later
use those words or ideas I give you to let Me talk through you,
too, as you publish those things in other ways.
169 ___________________________________________________
Change is going to have to happen one way or another.
I’ve been advocating inward change, as taking you someplace
else won’t necessarily solve the situation if you drag the same
inward problems around with you.
On the other hand, sometimes physical changes can be helpful
in bringing about inward changes, and if nothing else works,
and you simply won’t change your attitudes, behavior and
mindsets voluntarily, then usually some physical change is the
last resort by creating a new set of circumstances under which
you’re simply going to have to adapt your behavior.
“Because they have no changes, they fear not God,” in some
ways means that, “Because they have no outward changes,
they don’t have any inward changes.”
Fear and respect of Me means obeying My commandments,
which means adaptation from the usually originally sinful
behavior to a different one, in other words, an inward change;
and outward changes are simply conducive to those inward
changes.

On the other hand, one can run from one situation to another,
always distracted from dealing with the key points I want to
address in his life, which is one reason why it would be
preferable if you were able to use the situation you’re in to
make the necessary inward changes, rather than Me having to
shift you to another one and there perhaps having to start all
over to learn the same old lesson from scratch.
Of course, sometimes in another light the factors that need
change are more easily seen, but on the other hand, it could
also take a while until the things that need change would crop
up in your life and become recognizable and thus attack-able
and changeable.
Keep praying for changes – inward changes most of all.
Changing the world starts with you. So, when should we start?
170 ___________________________________________________
It takes effort to implement My input and advice to you. It
doesn’t come automatically. It’s like the thing I taught you about
Salvation and making it work for you in this life: You are clean
through the Words I speak unto, yes, but putting them into
practice is still another story, that is up to you! You are saved,
but the works you build onto that foundation are up to you.
Prayer is often the first step.
Prayer is communication of the most efficient kind in existence
that is available to man, and not only that, but it’s also a device
that will enhance and improve all your other communications
with your fellow humans as well.
Prayer oils the machinery of communication in your life with the
oil of My Spirit and thus helps it to operate better and to flow
more smoothly, and to flow in the direction of My will.
Your degree of spirituality is determined by your prayer life
more than by the amount of My Word you take in, because as a
hearer of the Word you can still be deceiving yourself, but as a
prayer warrior, and thus a doer of My Word, you start actually
walking the path, instead of just knowing it.
Step One in discipleship is receiving the instructions, and Step
Two is getting the machinery of well-oiled communication going
through prayer. Prayer will then help you get the necessary
spiritual help to put feet to those prayers and perform the
action that comes so hard to do in the flesh.
Prayer is the key to operate in the Spirit.
Prayer is the key that will help you do that which you find
impossible to do in the flesh.
Prayer is what will bring in all the necessary resources, the
supernatural aid…
It’s the wires and tubes that will bring the necessary energy and
power to your apparatus and get it going.
That’s why praying people will always be greater saints with
greater actions to show for it, greater miracles, etc., than the
most learned theologian, who has it all in his head in theory.
The first step toward implementing and putting all that theory
into action is prayer: “Action through prayer.”
It’s more important and powerful than prophecy, because
prophecy is what I tell you to do, and whether it will ever get
done still depends on your obedience, your efficiency and other
physical factors, whereas prayer is what you ask Me – your all-
powerful Friend and Husband – to do, and accordingly, the
results are usually more powerful.
The first step toward really getting things done is asking Me to
do it through you, or to help you do it!
It’s the act of sending up the request that will pump down the
necessary power for you to do all that you can do.
You get what you ask for.
If you find yourself without the necessary power or energy to
do something, then you must not yet have been praying for it!
171 ___________________________________________________
Things are not always black-and-white, easily to define,
analyze and put in a box with a label, “figured out.”
There’s so much to learn in life, and the greatest tragedy of the
times is that folks aren’t really paying attention to what’s there
to learn. Their heads are being stuffed with useless information
by the Enemy, and accordingly, they’re totally missing the point
and flunking the school of life.
The knowledge of evil creates the illusion that you really know
something, when nothing could be further from the truth.
The head stuffing of the Devil creates the illusion in people’s
heads that they’re actually smart. Loads and loads of useless
information, creating an illusion of a reality that’s just a fake,
and a poor counterfeit of the Real Thing.
The problem is that as long as their “knowledge” gets them all
they need for living and to be half-way content and entertained,
they won’t develop any desire to learn what’s really happening
and going on. As long as they’re happy and content with their
fake version of reality, they won’t start looking for the Real
Thing.
That’s why trouble is good for people, and the smartest move
the Devil could come up with was to postpone the trouble and
prolong this current era of affluence and general contentment
for as long as possible, in order to corrupt people’s hearts and
minds thoroughly.
There’s nothing like trouble to awaken people’s interest in the
truth.
The trouble with the truth is that there’s nothing like trouble that
makes people want any of it…
Until then, they’re perfectly happy and content living in the lie.
The lie becomes the new truth, the new gospel, the new credo
by which everything works, and if you don’t adhere to it, you’re
“out,” “old-fashioned” or “conservative.”
The best camouflage for an old, rotten lie is youth. If the Devil
could get youth to adopt his gospel of selfishness, greed and
sheer egotism as the only existing truth, then nothing was
going to be able to save the world anymore from his reign, and
that’s just about what has happened.
Now they’re all enslaved by his evil dogma, and soon he’s
going to come up with the great solution for his own problem
that he caused, but as usual, will blame someone else for, and
you know who his favorite scapegoat is…
Only, since he is declaring that I’m only a myth, he’s going to
make those the scapegoats who have the audacity to cling to
their belief in Me… His scapegoat is going to be the church.
There were those who denied My existence and becoming flesh
during the time of the Roman persecutions, but the great
apostasy or “falling away” will be that despite the fact that My
existence as an actual living Person had been well established
for centuries, a resurge of that “spirit of antichrist” will occur,
where people simply deny that I ever existed altogether…
The “Jesus Myth” is the Devil’s great and final campaign to
gather his forces against Mine. What better way to eliminate
your enemy than just reducing him to a fairy-tale?
That’s why only those are going to be able to survive this
onslaught and evade his deception who cling to Me as their
only and ultimate Reality, and why clinging to Me is your only
hope.
He will try to destroy people’s faith in Me on such a large scale
that only those who really know Me will not fall for his flood of
lies.
The odds are against you, but I am with you and for you, and
that’s really all that matters. If I am for you and with you and
fighting on your side, then who or what would stand a chance
against you?
What chance have all the odds against you, if I, the Maker of the
universe, am fighting on your behalf and on your side?
My Promises are more and stronger than all those odds and
prospects that are seemingly against you.
All that really matters in order for you to win is that I remain by
your side, and with Me you cannot lose, you cannot help but
win.
172 ___________________________________________________
Sometimes My answer, My message I try to convey to you,
lies in the silence, in the experience, in whatever it is you’re
having to pass through.
You may momentarily feel forsaken and alone, but you are not
alone. I have not left you alone. But the learning process is thus
that you cannot really absorb some lessons unless you go
through them on your own, unaware of My Presence that is
there to help you. I’m there and I’m making sure that everything
works out according to My plan, but I cannot make it easier on
you or rescue you prematurely. I cannot save you from a
necessary experience that you need to grow and to make
progress.
173 ___________________________________________________
Notions of distance from Me are always most likely to occur
due to the position of your own heart, and your own personal
perception of the situation, and are never based on My actual
position, which is unwavering, and always close to you, no
matter what you do, since I love you unconditionally.
I know what is going on in the spirit world and what has caused
your difficulties.
You’re up against foes that you have a hard time combating in
your own strength, which is why your mistake has been to fall
for their strategy and allow them to put this mental distance
between us, when especially in such situations you should
strive to seek Me and My closeness all the more desperately,
instead of getting into this defiant attitude of “Everyone has
forsaken me, so what’s the use, anyway?”
The Devil will use anything and anybody to drive a wedge
between us. Our relationship is the most precious thing you’ve
got, and you should guard it as your most precious treasure.
That’s what the Enemy will try to attack and destroy, that’s
precisely his intention, and you should defend this treasure,
and not let him rob you of it.
You must never allow anything to come between us, because
this is the very thing the Devil will have intended by his actions,
and if you allow him to separate us, then he has scored a point
and won that particular battle or campaign.
He tempts you to conclude that I must be upset with you or
carry a grudge, when nothing could be further from the truth,
because I see and know his tactics, and that he is actually the
culprit, and whatever blame you may have in it, I have already
washed it away and paid the price for with My blood.
All the Devil can really do is create this deception, an illusion of
a situation in which I’m mad at you for something you have
done, when that isn’t the way it works at all. I’m not your
average person that gets upset every time you stumble and fall,
especially when you’ve been caused to stumble by his
schemes.
You must not associate Me with the common behavior patterns
of your fellows on earth. I’m way above that.
I won’t get upset with you so easily. I can’t. I love you way too
much for that, and I also see and know way too much for that,
namely that you’ve simply been fooled and tricked into it, and
you simply didn’t recognize the Enemy’s strategy.
I know how he lies to you and builds his complicated, intricate
schemes in order to deceive you, fool you and trick you, and
how he manipulates you into thinking that I am less than I really
am, more like any common mortal that you’ve had to deal with,
and subject to their same rules of behavior.
Just like he’s trying to fool the world into believing that I never
existed as a real person, he’s also trying to reduce Me to close
to nothing in the minds of believers. He may not be able to fool
them and trick them into thinking that I never existed, but he
tries to strip and deprive Me of some of My divine qualities in
your mind and reduce Me to something more human and less
divine, and thus much less capable of loving you
unconditionally and eternally.
Once you know that that’s what he’s up to, you can be on guard
against his attempts, and try to guard your knowledge of the
fact that I’m not like that.
He’s trying to slander Me with his dirty smear campaign.
As with any and all lies of the Devil, the choice is always yours
whether you will believe them, but they’ll always amount to the
same old thing they have always been: worthless lies.
So, trust in My good gold of truth instead, and burn his useless,
currency that may still temporarily hold its worth in a world
heavily manipulated and seduced by him, but not for very long.
His value system is all based on deceit and illusions, and part
of his deception is to try to discredit My value system, and I
caution you strongly not to fall for his dangerous propaganda.
Don’t let him cheat you out of your conviction and fervor that
would keep on fire for Me.
Don’t let him get you to settle for anything less than My gold.
174 ___________________________________________________
I usually like for My children to learn from their own
experiences.
I allow every type of experience just at the point in time when I
think you’re ready for it and when there are actual chances that
you’re going to pass the test and it’s not too obviously
predictable that you’re going to flunk it.
I have to keep in mind the greater good for My general Cause
and body.
I cannot allow you to find everything you ever wanted in this
world, otherwise you would think that you had arrived at your
final destination, when this life is simply a pathway there.
You have to dig your way through the darkness into the light,
and not allow yourself to be deceived into thinking that this is
the light.
Most believers think this is just about as good as it gets, and
Heaven is just going to be the topping on their pie.
They don’t see the world for what it is and the shape it is in
right now, or if they do, they try really hard to ignore it, which is
easy to do when you’re in some sort of “winner’s” position, and
you’re the one who’s got the wealth and the power.
It’s all a matter of what position you’re in, and your willingness
to see and deal with reality as it really is.
If you’re really looking for the Real Thing, nothing else, and
that’s all you want, then you won’t settle for anything else, no
matter how many benefits it may bring you.
Part of the test of life is finding out how much you really want
the Real Thing, and how easily you might settle for anything
less, even if it may appear to be seemingly “more,” or
especially then.
It seems you’re up for another round of more, and I’m willing to

I have no other choice but to take the blessing away from
you again, if it threatens to take the place in your life of the
Blesser.
It’s the quality of the input and information that matters, not the
quantity. You get a greater quantity of input via the Internet, but
the quality is not the same as the information and input I give
you.
After all, the Internet represents an aspect of the world, and
you’re not supposed to love the world, nor the things in it, but
you’re supposed to love Me, and the things from My World,
since it’s that world where you originally come from, and where
you’re going to return, your true Home; and no matter how
much information you derive from the present world, it will
never have the same pleasant effect on you as the kind of
information I give you straight from My Realm.
Too much worldly input destroys your appetite for My input,
and that’s precisely what’s happening to a lot of people.
Some luxuries are better not to have.
It’s not always good to accept every temptation and commodity
that comes your way, as experience will tell you. Sometimes it’s
wisest to be able to say, “No, thank you!”
Everybody assumes that they can handle whatever benefits life
will hand them. Well, the truth is that sometimes – in the case of
those in whose lives I am heavily involved, I test you to see
whether you are able to handle that extra blessing or not, and
when it becomes a factor that stands between you and Me and
threatens to separate us and drive us further apart, then I will
have to eliminate it again, and simply take it away…
Less is sometimes more, nearly always when it comes to
luxuries that threaten to usurp My place in your life.
The tests reveal your true strength and compare them to the
picture and estimate that you had in your own mind, and
usually, reality shows it to be less than what you had imagined.
It’s seldom that somebody is actually stronger than they
thought.
It’s the nature of the flesh to overestimate its capacities. It
always argues, “No, come on, Lord, I don’t need that extra help,
I can handle it on my own…” Just like a teenager who argues
vehemently that he can stay up until midnight and still get up
early to get to school…
The flesh thinks itself capable of handling and resisting the
temptation, but experience and reality will often paint a different
picture.
That’s why it’s important to frequently come on down to the
ground and rock bottom of reality according to the picture I
show and reveal to you. If you’re in touch with Me, you’re in
touch with reality. If you’re not in touch with Me, then you’re
more likely to be influenced by other factors that distort reality
as I see it, the matrix of the world, and whatever illusion the
Enemy manages to paint in your mind.
He’s an illusionist, and while his pictures can look deceivingly
real, they hardly ever turn out to be, and while My perhaps
slightly more modest picture of reality may not appeal to you
quite as much, you’re much better off there, because you can
trust in it as being the Real Thing.
The Real Thing is reality according to Me, which is always
something you need to distinguish from the false, painted and
illusory fake reality and matrix of the Devil.
If you want to know where things are really at, stick to Me and
My Real Thing, the true picture of reality as derived from My
input that I give you. They may think it’s a fairy tale, but, boy,
are they going to be surprised!
183 ___________________________________________________
I’m not saying that relationship is always easy. Nor did I
ever say that it’s the easy way I want you to go. But when your
burden gets heavy and you’re weary and heavy laden, you can
come to Me, and I will give you rest.
Perhaps I did make relationships a little hard sometimes in
order for people to seek Me more often than they would
otherwise, if their lives were all perfect.
After all, I’ve got to give you some reminders that this world is
not your home, since people develop some sort of immunity to
evil and don’t even realize anymore that anything’s wrong with
the world if they’ve never known anything else in the first
place…
They just take it as it is, and look at anyone who claims that
there’s anything wrong with it as if they’re from Mars… They
defend their reality and what it is as theirs, and, if it’s theirs,
then it must be good, right?
The Enemy likes to envelop those in a mantle of complacency
who claim to be My disciples, and tries to make them feel at
home in the here and now, as if to say, “See? It’s not all that
bad, after all.”
So I’ve got to allow a little reminder to come along every now
and then that it’s not the flawless world the flesh would
sometimes like to make itself believe to be, but there’s lots of
room for improvement, and thus, lots of reasons to stay close
to Me and seek Me for solutions to life’s problems at hand.
As soon as you tend to think that you can get away with
handling things without praying and committing them to Me, I
must allow them to unravel a bit to set you straight.
You may seem to be able to handle things without Me
sometimes, but never for very long. Just as people can have
illusions and false notions about this world being alright, so
you can also have deceptive notions about doing things without
Me.
By problems coming up you realize that you must have done
something wrong, after all, even if it’s just that you didn’t
include Me in it, didn’t pray for it, or simply forgot to ask Me not
to allow any problems to occur.
184 ___________________________________________________
Life isn’t entirely easy to figure out these days, and it’s
definitely a challenge to make sense of it, and to keep your
mind on the goal.
You wonder, “Where’s the sense in this?” But if truly all things
work together for your good, then you must also trust Me that
it’s true with these things that seemingly don’t make any
sense…
Sometimes I use these situations to see whether you’re going
to keep trusting Me anyway that I know best, even if things
don’t seem to make perfect sense to you…
You just have to trust My judgment that the pros will outweigh
the cons…
Sometimes your victorious attitude in the face of seeming
defeat will be all the sample needed for people to see the
strength of your character, which will lend greater credibility to
what you’ve got to say and may make them curious about the
Source of your strength.
Of course I can also use weak vessels in spite of themselves,
and speak through folks whose sample may not necessarily be
impeccable. But it sure helps if your actions and attitudes jibe
with your words and the counsel you pass on to others.
You may not be a perfect vessel and have some flaws, but that
doesn’t mean that I won’t be working on them, or that I won’t be
working on your improvement.
In fact, some unpleasant experiences may serve just to do
that…
185 ___________________________________________________
The Spirit World is a little bit like the Internet, only much
vaster, and – if you’re tuned in to Me an My Spirit – a much
more reliable source for wholesome input, information, vibes
and spirits, and a greater source of contentment and genuine
inspiration, since you don’t have to wade through all that muck
that’s out there on the Internet, and nobody Here in the Spirit
World wants to sell you anything.
Another advantage of the Spirit World: There is no censorship
Here.
We can deal with any sin, any emotion, any amount of
frustration or anger you might experience, and there’s nothing
We haven’t seen yet when it comes to that.
We’re a lot better able to handle you including all your problems
and more up to par with your needs and demands than that
pitiful man-made construction that makes up the virtual version
of the Great Link.
In the Spirit World We won’t discriminate you because of your
age, because everyone Here knows that age is pretty much
irrelevant, or rather, how much of an advantage it can be to
have greater experience, and nobody Here swallows any of the
false dogma under which most inhabitants of earth live right
now that youth is supposedly superior to maturity…
It took the Devil and his lot decades of constant brainwashing
to get people to believe that, and since Our Realm is not under
his influence, We clearly see that as one of his schemes of
indoctrination and manipulation.
People don’t really have the ability anymore to see the real you
or look at anyone unbiased. If you don’t meet their artificially
made criteria and Hollywood standards, you simply don’t come
across as very desirable to them…
They fall for the glitz and glamour that they’re being offered via
the media.
Well, We don’t. We can see the real thing that is you, and We
appreciate it, like it and love it wholeheartedly, in spite of its
current flaws, which are really only temporal and in large part
due to the conditions and what you’re going through there.
But We can help you overcome and rise above those if you just
tune in to Us more, and Our channel, and come to visit Us Here
more often.
This is where your heart and soul and spirit and mind belongs,
and where you can find true satisfaction and fulfillment. Here is
where you’ll find the Real Thing, and not fake after fake after
fake.
What they call “sight” is really blindness. What they call
“seeing” is really only a deception and an illusion. You first
have to close your eyes, in order to learn how to really see.
We don’t go by clichés, we only see the real you, and that’s
enough for Us, and We love you immensely.
And if you stay in tune with Us, We can help you to find others
who are looking for what you’ve got, and We can guide you
toward them. In fact, that’s the great plan, and one of the main
reasons why it’s so important you stay tuned to Us! You’ve got
to find them, and We’re the only Ones Who can help you do so.
The more you’re in tune with Us, the more likely you’re going to
find the people We’re trying to hook you up with. The more you
seek Us, the more of them you’re going to find!
The hard thing is not to let yourself get distracted. But if you
realize the importance of it and the futility of all the things the
Enemy uses to distract you, you’ll get the hang of it, and abide
with Us Here, on Our wavelength. This is where your strength,
your wisdom, and all that really matters will come from.
186 ___________________________________________________
The Real Thing is the alternative to the many fake realities
that people build in their minds, their concocted results of their
own wishful thinking. The Real Thing is My touchstone, My
testing point for each one of you as I’m asking you, when you
confront each test in life: “Can you handle this? Can you deal
with the Real Thing? Are you man or woman enough to accept
and cope with this full scope of reality without having to resort
to any lies, as tempting as they may sound?”
When you come to face it, right after pride and perhaps a little
ungratefulness, the one thing that was really responsible for all
the evil in this world was the lie, and man’s tendency to fall for
it.
The Real Thing is My truth, the weapon with which I counter and
defy Satan’s lies, and not many people can handle it. It’s pretty
strong wine, and a very rare vintage in this world, only known
and appreciated by a handful of chosen connoisseurs…
The truth is that pearl, that prize of great value, that hidden
treasure that the true seekers set out to find, and only few will
find it. Most cling too much to their own imaginations of what
the truth should sound like, or what the Real Thing should look
like when they find it. Others do find it, virtually stumble over it,
or rather, are found by it, and don’t really appreciate it, and
consequently don’t really act in a manner worthy of the keepers
of the flame, adding to the confusion and mystery, and making
it even yet harder for others to find.
So, even among the small minority who happen to find the Real
Thing in life, yet only another chosen few are actually useful in
promoting My Cause and causing the treasure they found or are
found by to bring dividends by sharing it with others in a way
that will truly profit them, not in a show-off type of way, nor in a
haphazardly sort of way, as if saying, “Here, swallow this, if you
can handle it,” but with love and in full appreciation of the value
of their treasure.
And even less are those who commit their entire lives to this
Cause without tiring from it, nor veering from that straight and
narrow and rugged path…
The question is, who are those who can really see, who are they
that truly hear? Who can touch and feel and discern My Real
Thing from all the other fakes? Who can taste that this is indeed
IT?
It’s a tough quest when Satan has perverted their appetites,
distorted their vision and polluted the airwaves with his
constant appalling noises and sounds. Many come close, and
yet so far…
Very, very few actually come so close that they are ready and
willing to give their entire lives for it, truly renouncing all the
other stuff, the excess weight, the ballast, that which the Devil
would heap and pile on their shoulders, which they call
possessions and their treasures, when often they’re just
weights and obstacles designed to keep them from finding the
true treasure that life is all about finding.
Who can let go of all that which doesn’t really matter? Who will
dare to let it all go for the Real Thing?
Who will embrace My treasure and recognize it for what it’s
worth, willing to give everything they own in order to obtain it?
Who is ready to put it at the top of the list of their priorities in
life and make My Cause their cause, My concerns theirs, and
My truth, My reality their own?
Who will be My people, My chosen ones who will have chosen
not to settle for anything less than the Real Thing?
187 ___________________________________________________
Faith requires time to grow. The seed of the Word is sown,
and then it takes a little while until it comes to fruition.
The only Promise We can make is that you will someday
understand and see the sense and purpose in the things We
allow.
Maybe it’s only a little comfort when what you’re mostly
interested in is the here and now, but you see, that’s what this
whole issue of faith is all about: Will you merely be one more of
those who settle for all that’s available and obtainable in the
here and now, or will you be less short-sighted and set your
affections on things to come?
All We can promise you is, it will be worth it all!
The real thrilling thing about Our Plan in your life is that We
make winners out of those who may look like losers to the
world, and even to themselves sometimes…
Some people believe in themselves, and you tend to envy them
a little sometimes. Others, like you, are totally dependent on Us,
on Me, and sometimes you wonder where that will get you,
especially during those times when I seem to be less present in
your life than at others (notice that I said “seem…”).
Like My outcry on the cross, “Why hast Thou forsaken Me?” It
wasn’t that He had really forsaken Me, but it was what I felt.
And that’s not how the story ended, but in the end I
commended My Spirit into His hands.
What’s to be learned from this is that you can trust Me, and you
can commit yourself wholly into My hands, even when you’re
going through your defeat and the pain of crucifixion, or
whatever equivalent in your life, your trials, your problems,
your times of doubt and despair…
If you will overcome those doubts and finally yield and trust and
commit your life and your all into My hands, you also will
experience a glorious and miraculous resurrection like I did.

That’s how you overcome. Not by constantly riding the high tide
or a high horse, but by getting up again after you fell by
committing your life to Me. I’m trying to get you to truly live
what I’ve been trying to teach you over and over again: to treat
your circumstances impartially and treat “success” and
“failure” the same; to stay in the same victorious spirit and
attitude, come rain or come shine… to stay “on top,” spiritually
and mentally, even when you’re on the ground.
And at the same time to preserve your guard during those times
when you seem to be more blessed and there’s a greater flow of
abundance, or during the “easy times,” when things are going
more according to your idea.
Surrender into My hands your judgment of what is good and
what is evil; let Me decide what is good for you, and what is not.
You may prefer the “good times.” But could it be that I know
better and that the hard times are actually better for you?
And if so, what do you think your attitude should be when
you’re going through a lean stretch? Shouldn’t you be rejoicing
and enjoying life just the same as when you’re going through
the good times?
If you commit your spirit into My hands, I can help you to be
cheerful and victorious in spite of any circumstances. I can help
you to truly overcome. After all, what else does it mean to be an
overcomer, but to rise above adverse circumstances? The
greater the adversity, the greater the victory! – The greater the
miracle I will have to do, and thus, the greater reason to rejoice
and praise Me.
You’d like to have Me around as your Companion, your Pal, and
certainly as your Blesser and Provider, but basically you’d
prefer if I’d just let you live the life you please… with My
blessing, but without much further interference. Well, that’s
what most Christians want.
Unfortunately, that’s not how it works.
Closeness to Me does not work as long as you still have other
things and preferences in your life above Me, because those
other things are usually rivals to My presence, position and
effect in your life, and they are counter-productive to what I am
trying to accomplish in your life. It’s as if they annul My efforts
in your life and tear down whatever I’ve been trying to build.
The only way it works is if you allow Me to move that clutter out
of the way and replace them with My Presence and input in your
life and let Me take over that spot reserved for “the most
important thing” in your life.
As long as there are other things that occupy your thoughts
more, I cannot really function properly in your life. The only
thing I can do then is work on moving the clutter and garbage
as much as you grant Me the consent and permission to do so.
And once I do, your initial reaction is usually, “Hey, why are
You taking those blessings away from me?” Well, only to
replace them with the greater blessing of My Presence and
closeness, which is what you really want, right? I’m not forcing
anybody to stick close to Me against their will.
But experience has taught you that anything else simply won’t
satisfy in the long run.
Of course, if you could, you would like to eat you cake and have
it, too, and keep all the things you like together on the top
pedestal of your life and priorities. Unfortunately, that’s not
realistic.
So, every now and then I’ve got to remind you of Who’s No.1 in
your life, even if it’s by the painful process of removing some of
those blessings that you tended to allow to usurp that place.
If you stay focused on Me and praise Me and give Me the credit
for the good things in your life, instead of starting to take Me for
granted when they come, then you would also be able to enjoy
the blessings on a more permanent an steady level.
So much depends on your relationship with Me and how much
you’re willing to invest in it, and how much you’re willing to
commit yourself, your spirit and your life and entire being into
My hands each day.
That point of surrender could be your starting point each day,
and that would accelerate your progress and learning process
quite a lot. Instead of Me having to wait for you to get to that
point eventually, you’d start out from there… and you can
imagine that we’d move forward a lot faster at that rate.
Not that I’m in a hurry. But I reckon it’s you who wouldn’t want
to repeat the same old lesson over and over again, and who
would like to experience some tangible and visible progress in
your life that would ensure a more permanent state of blessing,
instead of this current roller coaster ride…
188 ___________________________________________________
“Seekest thou great things for thyself? Seek them not.”
You’re always seeking things to do that will make you shine
before the world as a beacon of My truth…
But remember, I want you to be real, and that means, I want you
to live a life according to the message you preach, and since
My message is one of humility, I require that measure of
humility from you to also pitch in and apply some elbow grease
at home regularly.
How about pitching in and helping to make the work load a little
lighter for your fellowman? How about a little loving your
neighbor as yourself for a change, instead of all that high
pitched spiritual stuff? How about raising the physical standard
a little, so that the spiritual output will have a greater impact
later on?
189 ___________________________________________________
Expectation… The hand of faith reaches out and waits. That
is how faith works. How easy it would be for people to reach out
and touch Me, isn’t it? And yet, all they lack is a little bit of faith.
It all depends on how real you believe I am, and how strongly
you believe in My Words and Promises.
If you’ve experienced that I’ve never ever let you down, why
should I let you down this time?
I know, because the Devil made you think that I might be mad at
you for some reason, and I’m going to turn My back on you
because you’ve failed.
Well, you’re just going to have to get it into your system that
that’s not Me. I would never turn My back on you or anyone who
truly and uprightly seeks Me.
I will only turn My back on those who claim to know Me and
commit atrocious crimes in My name without My ever having
known them – without their ever having let Me know them, and
certainly they themselves never having made an effort to truly
know Me and My will.
But as far as you’re concerned, I will always be there. The devil
may temporarily be able to create the impression that I’m not
there, just as I was tempted on the cross to believe that the
Father had forsaken Me, but it’s never true. Just as the Father
was always there, I will also always be there.
If you ever should be tempted to wonder whether I’m around,
just remember My name, I am. I am always there. I can do no
other. It’s My nature to be around, a very present help in
trouble, even if many blame Me for being absent when they
most needed Me, I am never absent. I may only be beyond their
capacity of perception due to their weak or absent faith in Me,
but that happens to be the one requirement: you must believe.
It will always be done unto you according to your faith.
According to your faith your ability to see, perceive, hear, feel
and touch Me will be released. It’s like the knob that allows the
intensity with which you can perceive Me, just as a volume
knob on a TV or radio will increase the level of the volume of
the music. And of course, you must be certain to have tuned
into My channel first…
Basically, the same rule and principle also applies to every one
of your needs, or even things you would like to have, as long as
they are in coordination with My will for you. 191 ___________________________________________________

Abraham chose to believe that I – and the Father - knew better.
Ever since the Garden of Eden, when Adam and Eve ate of the
tree of the fruit of knowledge of good and evil, people have
thought that they could decide for themselves what is good and
what is evil, instead of trusting Me for it.
That faith and trust you have acquired by your faithful study of
My Word and committing My Promises to heart must be put to
use and put to the test, just as gold is purified in the fire.
The human tendency is to quickly pipe up, “But the fire has
been on for a long time now, and it’s getting unbearably hot.”
But remember My Promise that I will never allow you to be
tempted above that which you are able to bear.
What Abraham in effect was saying was, “Even if God asks me
to kill my own beloved son, I will trust in Him.” The same as
Job, who said, “Even if He kills me, yet will I trust in Him.”

I only make great kings and rulers out of those who are little or

figure they have to lose by giving it back to Me.
So, My love, will you fully honor Me by giving your full trust to
Me, and trusting Me with your life, your future, everything?
Can you fully trust that you are in the best hands, and thus in
the best place in the universe you could possibly be? As messy
and as unlikely as it may seem, can you trust that your life, the
way it is right now, is precisely the best thing that could have
happened to you of all the millions of options, in order to make
you the best you could possibly become?
People can never figure out why, of all people I have chosen
them. But it’s usually because of some relatively small choice
they made to begin with: you chose to come back faithfully to
attend to My Words and learn from My lips. It may not always
have resulted in all your dreams come true, but – can you trust
Me for this when I say, it will?
That treasure of the Words from My lips is worth more than all
the gold or silver you could possibly accumulate in a life-time,
because you will have to leave material treasures behind when
you leave this earth, but My treasures are yours to keep forever.

direction He wants everything to go, is obvious: closer to Him,
on a path that improves in relation to Him, a state of greater
cooperation and communication and interaction with Him; to
become an integral and well-functioning part of His Big Picture
of Everything…
You can never just stand still and stagnate. There has got to be
some sort of progress, some moving on, some advancement in
the right direction in order not to “lose it.”
The sad thing is that many people’s focus is basically all on
themselves, and their concern is primarily with their own
welfare, even in their interactions with others: “What can you or
they do for me?” is their question that determines their attitude
in life, and one that’s bound to cause them to sadly fail and
miss the point.
True progress is achieved through concern for others and
developing an attitude that causes you to look around for
things you can do that may be of service to them, instead of
constantly being on the lookout for someone to cater to your
personal well-being. It’s the attitude of a servant, as opposed to
that of a tyrant, and the choice between either of those two is
basically what determines your outcome in the final analysis of
your life as either a winner or a loser.
The tyrants may presently look like the winners, but they’ll
certainly be the losers in the long run, whereas the servants are
going to be the winners in My book. The tyrants are those who
are too proud to be My servants, and they rebel against that
destiny, and want to be served and catered to themselves. They
don’t want to dance on “another sucker’s parade” as someone
put it, which just about wraps up the Devil’s attitude of the
original pride that brought sin and all of evil into the world.
The only true progress and advancement is achieved via
selfless serving. The regress and backwards movement the
world is currently undergoing is all due to millions of little
tyrants being let loose on each other, powered by the input that
Satan has unleashed upon them on an unprecedented massive
scale… soon to culminate in the revelation of the biggest tyrant
ever…
Success in relationship, in life itself, and just about everything,
is thus determined by the largely underestimated virtue of
humility. Humility determines who will be the losers and who
will be the winners at the end of this game of life. It is one of the
principal weapons with which this war of the worlds is going to
be won, as paradox as that may sound to some and contrary to
all they presently assume and think.
Being a servant of Mine is infinitely more rewarding than being
a slave in the matrix, which may enable you to play a tyrant
over a handful of other people for a brief time in the present,
but will usually only result in misery later…
Better late progress than no progress at all, and I take anything
I can get these days; although once I’ve got you, I’ll keep
working on improving and enhancing you and your usefulness
to Me, not least of all for the sake of your own fulfillment and
happiness.
I only ask you to be My servant because I have already been
yours all along.
194 ___________________________________________________
There may be few who appreciate what you’ve got to give,
but they are there. Isn’t it great to know you’re one of the few on
the right path, as opposed to all the masses treading down the
path that is destined for destruction?
Even if it’s not necessarily they themselves who are headed for
destruction, their path is, while you will already have been
walking on the eternal, lasting path, prepared to lead and guide
the way for them who foolishly clung to the wrong path…
So, you’re in no way disadvantaged, even if you may presently
find yourself in a wee minority and vastly outnumbered.
Remember My stance on “the numbers of man.” They don’t
really impress Me, and neither should you be impressed by
them.
The measurements of man and his standards are faulty at best.
If you want a proper and decent standard, adopt Mine. That’s
what Wisdom refers to in Proverbs 8 by “judgment.” You can
learn to define, determine and judge by true, divine and
everlasting standards, as opposed to the faulty and flawed
standards of man that are soon to be replaced permanently,
even when it comes to such basic things as determining what is
“good” or “bad.”
If you cease from judging yourself, or judging by criteria based
on your own personal inclinations, intuitions or understanding,
and instead seek to view things from My angle, you can learn to
truly apply that divine standard that will render the true picture
of things.
It’s as if you look through a spectrum that will render a clear
and true illustration of things, instead of the tainted and poor
version your own outdated “software” might render.
You can become an apprentice to the One True Judge, instead
of being just one more wannabe judge whose own criteria may
be in desperate need of revision… Like that of so many worldly
judges, or even the average citizen who judges everything and
just about anyone by their own individual point of view based
on the information they happen to accept as valid, which is
basically, whatever suits them best.
It’s a choice not for the most comfortable option, but rather, for
the only true and genuine one, no matter what discomforts and
sacrifices it may bring, that determines one’s ability to truly
judge and discern between good and evil. Basically, it means
allowing Me to judge the matter, and not come to conclusions
prematurely.
That requires patience and faith. Sometimes you’ve just got to
leave it there until I reveal to you My thoughts and input about
it. But the more practice you get at obtaining My input, the more
skilled you’ll become at it. Just make sure you settle for nothing
less than Mine, and that you don’t mingle too much of your own
personal view and opinion with your judgment, which may taint
the picture and diminish the quality of your gift of discernment.
As long as your quest is for “the truth and nothing but the
truth” instead of conclusions made in a rush, you’re safe. As
long as you remember that it is I Who know, not you, you can
fairly safely assume that you’ll be getting the right picture and
that your judgment will be fair.
Of course, it’s safest not to judge anyone at all, but if you have
to judge a situation, make “righteous judgment,” as I
admonished My listeners in the Gospel, and that is something
you accomplish by allowing Me to be the Judge.
Judge by My standards, and you’ll judge fairly.
I love and honor those who judge by My measures, and they will
be honored and obtain honor.
People address and refer to worldly judges as “your honor,”
but it will be My privilege to adorn My true judges with My
honor.
195 ___________________________________________________
If you really knew and were aware of the extent to which I
am actively present and involved in your lives, you would have
full trust for every second, every moment of your lives, and you
wouldn’t worry or fret about anything anymore… Not about
death, and certainly not about living, how to bring in your
money and support, etc.
If you put My Kingdom and affairs first in your life, I take care of
all that, as you should have learned from decades of experience
by now: I was with you in times when you didn’t have anything.
And I have kept you and supplied for you for all those years…
Why should I do it any differently now?
Enjoy your life for a change without any stress or worries about
your survival and substance.
Let Me do My job of taking care of you while you do yours of
taking care of the sheep and seeing to it that there will be
material to feed them when the time comes and they will be
more desperate for it because My prophecies of old will be
fulfilled before their eyes, and it will be harder for them not to
believe then, and they will be desperate for guidance and
spiritual nourishment.
Right now it’s still pretty much by faith, and some of those
events look as if they might happen or not, but once they will be
happening, those who have read and heard the prophecies of
old won’t be able to deny their authenticity anymore, and they
will know that the Bible was right and truth all along, and those
who proclaimed My Words had been in the right all along…
You can be free of all those worries. If you’re not, then how are
you going to convey freedom from worries and fear to others?
196 ___________________________________________________
I’ve told you not to go by the way any group of people does
it. What matters is that you have the conviction to do what I am
showing you to do personally.
When trouble comes you won’t be able to rely on any group.
You’re going to have to be able to rely on Me; that’s what
matters, and that’s what will count: how much will you have
learned to truly rely on Me?
That will determine the extent to which you will panic or not –
even when everyone else around you will be panicking.
The extent to which you’re learning to trust Me calmly now in
the face of adversity and loss will determine how well you’ll be
faring then, when adversity and loss will reach unprecedented
proportions.
So, don’t see it as if I’m teasing you with these things, but see
them as necessary training: I’m training you not to cling to
things any more than necessary.
I’m training you to trust even in the face of loss.
I’m training you because there will be more severe tests than
this awaiting you in the future, and I want to make you strong
enough to face them and to be able to pass them and not
dismay or faint then, because that’s when the world will need
you and what you have to give more desperately than at any
other time.
Right now they may think they don’t need what you have to
give. Not yet. But your strength and faith in those days and in
the face of real calamities will determine whether you’ve really
got something to give, and whether what you have is going to
be real gold faith that’s not going to go up in flames like their
paper money and their paper money faith.
197 ___________________________________________________
Sometimes the faith of those who have come from a
background of disbelief and have had to fight their way out
through the darkness toward the light is stronger, and they
become better and more passionate fighters than those who
have grown up with the truth and tend to take it for granted
sometimes.
The fact that you grew up with an evolution-based background
makes you a sharper tool in My hands against the enemies of
truth who are threatening to flood the world with their lies.
People who grew up with the teachings of creation often
couldn’t care less about the beliefs of evolutionists, while you
spend more time learning how to destroy their delusions.
It also helps you see where many of the evils of society come
from, and how it’s their dogmas of disbelief that bring many of 199 ___________________________________________________
their curses upon them, and you see the Enemy at work behind
it, and thus are not ignorant of his devices and tactics, and
become a more skilled fighter against him than those who
ignore and don’t pay any attention to these things.
198 ___________________________________________________
An attitude of gratitude can change so many things, even if
it’s just an interior change, but it sure affects the way you see
things.
If you thank Me for your situation and circumstances instead of
complaining about them, you’re bound to improve things.
Whereas complaining has never really helped much under any
circumstances.
It’s true that some of the circumstances and conditions I allow
to crop up in your life could be deemed questionable. But
perhaps I’m testing you to see how you’re going to take them,
and whether you’re going to have a positive and praiseful
attitude about them or you’re going to get into a negative drift
and start complaining and murmuring in your heart about them.
When you’re not quite sure about it, you tend to stay neutral
about it and have a “let’s wait and see what’s to become of
this” attitude. But maybe it would be more helpful if you’d adopt
a definitely positive and praiseful attitude from scratch,
showing that you believe that I know what I’m doing, even if it’s
a situation that could potentially be rated either positively or
negatively.
When there’s a choice between rating something positively or
negatively, why not make “positive” your default? Just because
you know I’m in charge, and I have always made the best out of
every situation so far… And how likely is it that I’m going to let
you down this time?
Your situation causes you to search your heart and seek Me
about the possibility that you might have done something
wrong, or at least could do things better. That’s better for you
than assuming that you’re doing fine and everything is honky-
dory, just because you happen to be faring okay financially…
People always figure that as long as they’re doing well
financially, I must be pleased with them, and everything’s in
order. Just about the worst imaginable “punishment” for them
and the greatest shame is when their finances start to dwindle.
They start feeling useless, or as if I had forsaken them and
withdrawn My blessings, when it could also be that I’m
preparing them for a future situation without any money at all,
in which case the withdrawal is a token of My love for them.
I want you to become dependent on Me, not on paper!
I want you to know that I’m a greater force to be reckoned with
than any amount of money in the world.
Financial power – all good and nice, but nothing compared to
My power!
When it comes to a factor that people put their trust in, then
money is definitely My rival no.1, and it happens subtly. How
dependent folks become on money only becomes evident once
I start withdrawing it or allow its flow to be reduced. If I see that
it doesn’t have any effect on their faith and trust in Me and they
remain cheerful and thankful, then I know money does not
affect them, but if I see that their trust starts to crumble, then
we have a problem, and we need to work on it.
We need to establish just Who or what you should be placing
your trust in. We need to figure out why your faith and trust
diminishes when your financial status does, because the two
should really be independent from each other, otherwise it
indicates that your faith is still hinged on your circumstances to
some extent.

Someone knew what they were doing when they instituted this
game of life, including its process of aging, sicknesses and
other ailments, or you go through life murmuring and
complaining about the kind of disaster that life presents for
you…
And according to your attitude the quality of your life will be.
You can choose to see the donut or the hole. You can choose to
see Me as the loving Father I am, or as the wicked tyrant with
the magnifying glass on the ant hill, who’s just out to torture

whatever trial and test I bring along is something which,
according to My judgment, you will be able to benefit from. You
will know that no suffering I allow to come your way will ever be
unnecessary. You’ll be able to trust in a divine purpose for
everything, even if initially and occasionally you’re tempted to
doubt and waver.
The key to life, and life abundant (John 10:10), is trust in Me.
Life is a school, which – if you’re an attentive pupil – will teach
you that it certainly pays to trust and believe in Me, no matter
how ridiculous the Devil may make that notion appear by all his
artistically and artificially concocted appearances of fake
realities and “truths” such as the theory of evolution.
Knowledge and the supply of information may have increased,
but the quality and value of that information have drastically

Where is that paper money going to be in a few years from

impress with numbers, the favorite game of all mankind.
I’m trying to teach you that there are more important things
than chasing after numbers.
Numbers and their pursuit can make your endeavors come
across as mathematical, instead of filled with divine inspiration.
The numbers game may be good and necessary for some, but
for others it can constitute a distraction from the things I really
want them to do and pursue.
Don’t let your life be ruled and governed by numbers. If you do,
you’re bound to wind up becoming nothing more than a number

inevitably and unstoppably moves toward the proof of the
opposite, and that it’s only the spirit that brings life.
There are many things that you or any other rational thinker
might have known better than for Me to allow them, but do they
really know all the factors involved, and whether the alternative
really would have been better?
Can they really say that they would have been a better judge of
the situation?
A lot of terrible things have happened since the beginning of
the world, a lot of grief and pain. But would you rather have
traded in your freedom to love and serve Me voluntarily in order
to have things differently?
Free choice has and always had its price.
That has been the plan, and I’m not about to stop it now, so
close to the goal and the conclusion of the plot. The story is
nearly done being told, and though there’s yet one last dark and
fierce chapter to be written and told, the glorious ending is also
coming into sight.
The greatest slaughter since the beginning of history is still
before us and impending, and it’s not as if I particularly enjoy
that sort of bloodshed. But just as My blood had to be shed,
and the blood of Abel was shed, and the blood of every lamb of
sacrifice since the beginning of the world, so the world needs to
pay the consequences for having chosen the way of sin over
and over and over again.
The lesson has to be made unequivocally clear. It has to stick.
Mankind will only appreciate peace and reconciliation with Me
after the most horrible wars have been fought, that will be
remembered as signs and tokens of warning, so they will truly
be able to say from their hearts, “never again.”
204 ___________________________________________________
The faulty and flawed leadership of the world will serve to
help people appreciate the Real Thing when they will finally see
it, and experience truly righteous and just governance in My
Kingdom.
Even experiencing where your own tyranny can lead will teach
you where it’s not at, and how much better it is to subject
yourself to the leadership of My Spirit. Knowing that you
wouldn’t have done better than anyone else had you been in
their positions helps you to understand just what are the true
criteria for good and anointed leadership…
If you’re willing to accept what those from the grassroots have
to contribute, instead of dismissing it prematurely, and you
trust Me that I brought that person and their input across your
path for some reason, you can just about profit and learn from
anything and use whatever comes your way to push you on
forward.
Your natural inclination would be… “Why should I have to listen
to this rubbish?” But just because I have put you in that
situation, and you know that it would be an unloving thing to do
not to listen to them, you subject yourself to it, and you go
through it…
You never know what worse fate you will have saved yourself
and them from by your willingness to listen to them, even
though you were basically unable to process much of the
information they gave you. In fact, it wasn’t about an exchange
of information at all. It was basically just about gesture, about
willingness to listen, about sacrificing your time for them, about
love.
The things they tell you may be in essence invalid, but you
simply know you’re doing the right thing in listening to them
anyway. Why do I have you go through this? Why am I asking
you to waste your time on this? You don’t know, but you just
know that you have to do it.
Because you trust that only I know the outcome of what would
happen if it were different. You may not have had to listen to
them, but something worse could have befallen you.
You may not have had to deal with this and occupy your time
with all these seemingly insignificant issues, but you may not
have gotten any further along, anyway. And so you let Me
decide what I deem you ought to be occupying your time with,
trusting that My ways are not your ways, My thoughts not
yours, and Mine as high above yours as the skies above the
earth.
You know and trust, because you have learned that I love to
take the unconventional way.
You see Me in all things, perceive Me in all things, and thus for
you it is without question that I actually am in all things. I’m
present; I’m around, as far as you can see, and I promise, you
and the whole world will find out that you were right about that.
Thank you for paying attention even to the little, seemingly
insignificant things! Thank you for having allowed Me to teach
you that lesson; for not being exclusive and insisting on
occupying your time and mind solely with obviously
“important” things! Who’s to say what’s important, and what’s
not?
Thank you for letting Me be the Judge over these things in your
life, and for giving Me and them a chance to even make their
little, seemingly insignificant world important to you. Welcome
to My World!
That’s what My life is and always was all about.
I have chosen to make you, your world, and whatever occupies
your mind at any given time, My world, My affair, and My
concern, because what you are and what you think and moves
and occupies you matters to Me.
Thanks for not being discriminative against the little things!
Thank you for allowing other things to matter to you than
position, power, wealth, and all the things that the hunters for
these top items chase after all their lives, often without ever
really enjoying a single day of their lives…
How many of them have never wept a single tear of joy? They
don’t even know what they’re missing.
Thank you for coming down to My world – the world of little
things!

you claim to love the minute something less than desirable
occurs and give them the blame for it.
It doesn’t treat people unfairly. It takes both the ups and downs,
and doesn’t just remain loyal during the good times.
You learn to take the ups and downs, the bad times along with
the good times.
Remember that one thing is required in stewards, that a man be
found faithful.
Try to remember to stay a little more faithful and loyal to Me
next time you’re tempted to give Me the blame for some
unpleasant circumstance or when you get angry or upset…
Perhaps you’ll manage not to blame or judge Me, but to just
take it graciously. Yes, it may be a test, and I may have allowed
it. But just because it’s a test and I allow it, why not try to pass
it, instead of flunking it by acting exactly in the way you
shouldn’t?
If it’s a test and you truly want to please Me, why not play along,
and make an effort to actually pass the test and act in a manner
that will help you to score points, instead of flunking it by
rebelling against it?
It’s a test, and you’re actually supposed to pass it, if you don’t
constantly want to have to repeat it…
Once you’ve got your issues with Me straightened out, and
you’ve got the basis of love straight with Me, then you will also
start making progress in your relationship with others, and
those you are supposed to reach for Me.

It’s during those times of testing, when the pressure is on, that
your character and strength are being put to the test and must
prove their worth.
206 ___________________________________________________
The world is not going to make your life easier in any way,
unless they’re bound to get something in exchange for their
services. They only give you something in order to be able to
take something else away from you. They give you a little
information in exchange for your freedom. They lend you their
space to do all your communications business on, only to get
more information out of you again that will be helpful in
controlling you better…
You can always expect from their corporations, businesses and
services to have ulterior motives in lending you their services.
The whole world lies in darkness. All they have is a pretense of
light, a false light, the artificial imitation of Lucifer, the former
and fallen light bearer, who all he’s got left now is a semblance
of the light he once bore, and with which he is now deceiving
mankind.
He’s not the true light, although he will pretend to be. Most
people in this society accept him as the real thing, though,
because what he’s got to offer seems to be so much more
attractive than what I have to offer:
He offers prosperity and affluence and power in this world, in
the here and now, while I call for abandon of these things.
His Gospel of pride sounds more attractive to most of them
than My Gospel of Humility. The followers and disciples of the
Gospel of Humility will always be fewer in this world than those
of the false gospel of pride…
They will reject, hate and resist you the way they did Me… That
should come as no surprise to you. It’s a given you should be
prepared for. It’s what is to be expected from this world.

another yet smaller minority of chosen ones among them chose
to receive and accept Me as the promised Messiah, Savior and
Son of God…
It’s shocking sometimes, just how few are really attuned to Me
and choose My way… But don’t see it as a negative, or let it
discourage you, but rather, let it drive home to you the
significance of the role you play for Me.
The less there are around of your kind, the more precious and
valuable you become.
It’s a little bit like with the American Natives: when the
Europeans first started coming and conquering America, the
Natives were a majority, and were definitely not appreciated,
but feared as enemies, and fought, and nearly exterminated.
But since they’ve become so rare and few, a lot of people have
started appreciating them and their culture that nearly
disappeared and got lost for good…
Some folks appreciate you being around, and perhaps
especially because there are so few of your kind.
Just like the American Natives, they know that you do have
some weaknesses and peculiarities about you, but they
appreciate and accept you nonetheless, because they know
that you have something valuable to give that is on the verge of
becoming lost, except for a miracle of My preservation and
protection.

Once you get going pouring out it’s hard for you to stop and
get into refilling gear. It’s hard for you to quiet down and be still
once you get going.
But it’s better you do make the effort than to risk running out of
energy and fuel, winding up exhausted, burned out, and
possibly getting out of it.
The more you rely on the Spirit, the less you will have that urge
to do it yourself, in the flesh. You simply learn by experience
that the Spirit is the easier and better and more effective way in
the long run, that the flesh may have its advantages, but they’re
always finite, and sooner or later it’s bound to let you down,
and the sooner you will have learned to depend on the Spirit,

It all keeps boiling down to the one same thing, which is as opposed to the times when a lot of your time is spent on just
entertaining yourselves, simply because there is no apparent
need for improvement, progress, or change.
I use the hard times for both your and My own good purpose,
and generally speaking, they’re a lot more conducive to bearing
good and lasting fruit than what you would call the “good times,
“ the easy and prosperous times.
The hard times are a much more excellent preparation for
what’s to come than the easy times, which only tend to further
spoil you, so just try to enjoy the hard times for what they are,
because for one thing, they’re not nearly as hard as they could
be, and are inevitably going to be, and secondly, a positive
approach to them will lead to greater productivity and show Me
that you continue to trust Me in spite of the circumstances, and
thus means greater victory!
“Greater victories out of seeming defeat” is My slogan, and I’m
happy for you that you are going through this comparatively
hard time, because it is simply much better for you than a
prolonged period of good times would have been, just as I told
My disciples that I was happy for their sakes that Lazarus had
died, because I was going to be able to do a miracle that was
going to increase their faith even more.
I use those seeming defeats all the time for greater victories
and miracles.
So, enjoy these relatively harder and more difficult times as an
opportunity to bring out something more and something good
and something new in you, something that’s going to increase
your productivity, and thus your efficiency and use for Me,
which these times of pressure have always done.
It also makes you look for the most efficient option in order to
reach people, not necessarily that which you would personally
like or enjoy the most.
So, which is better? - The good times or the hard times? – You
tell Me!
Financial stability unfortunately often encourages
complacency. As long as a certain method works, people don’t
look around for something new to do, or at least not as readily,
or under the same pressure.
Pressure is a force that I use for good. It’s not necessarily
something bad that needs to be shunned and avoided at any
cost.
215 ___________________________________________________
I like to bring out in you the potential that you didn’t even
know yourself was there, and which other way can I do that
than by extraordinary, and sometimes rough circumstances?
Certainly the “usual way” wouldn’t bring about those moments
of exuberance! You can only reach your extreme strength in
extreme situations.
Why not try and enjoy this challenge?
The times are hard? Hallelujah! Bring on the night! Bring on the
battle!
That’s what you’re on the battle field for – to fight, and that’s the
only thing that’s going to make you skilled at fighting and
stronger, not the easy, affluent times.
You compare to those who are doing better and you think
you’ve got the raw end of the deal, when in the end it doesn’t
matter what you’ve been handed, but what you make out of it
that counts, and you know enough stories of people who were
really handed the raw end of the deal and rough circumstances,
and yet made the best out of it…
You can do it, too!
You don’t have to accept the loser’s fate or the loser label the
Enemy wants to pin on you, even in your own mind!
If you’re going to accept the Devil’s brainwash and
indoctrination, then woe is us!
So, guard your truth! Keep defending it, and keep cherishing
and valuing it as the priceless treasure that it is!
I’ve been sowing the seed of the truth in theory in your mind,
but now it’s up to you to make out of it a truth that you can
actually live.
Dependence on Me is what counts, and where we are right now
is the process of taking that principle out of the realm of the
theoretical and putting it into practice, applying it in the real
world and actuality.
Take out the trash in your head!
To hell with what anyone else might think about you! That isn’t
your concern. What should concern you, is what I think about
you. Fear not them which kill the body or make themselves
opinions of you. Only fear the One Who could really let you get
into trouble if you don’t make sure you stay close to Him, and
care about His opinion of you!
I expect of you to stand up for your convictions and for My
truth, and not care about all this other stuff… “What shall we
eat, what shall we drink, wherewithal shall we be clothed?...”
That’s all the same stuff the captives of the System are
concerned about.
Yes, it’s hard sometimes. So what? Can that stop you? I know
there’s more in you than that! I can make a bellwether out of
you, even if you didn’t think that’s what you were.
I can do it and make out of you something beyond anything you
dared to dream or think. Just give Me a chance, and I’ll prove it
to you!
216 ___________________________________________________
I showed them that their system and a lot of their values
(which were basically the same as today) weren’t where it was
at. But I offered a better alternative. I didn’t say, “Damned are
the proud and those who lean on the arm of the flesh and who
think they are wise,” but I gave it a positive slant by saying
blessed are the meek, the merciful, poor in spirit, etc.
I contradicted their system without making it an obvious
contradiction, but by offering a better alternative.
So, if you focus more on the blessings of “blessed are…” and
concentrate more on showing the attractive alternative, rather
than pointing out all that’s wrong about the stuff they still
believe in, you’ll also have a lot more success in your
preaching and ministry.
Instead of blasting them, you turn around in your approach and
say, “Blessed are they who do things differently.” And you list
up all the qualities of such blessed and happy people: Happy
people are humble. Happy people are grateful. Happy people
like to give, they like to love and like to live, etc.
I’m not saying that there is never a time to point out the ugly
truth. But it’s a lot easier for people to accept what you have to
say if you wrap it up in a positive packaging.
You agree that there’s something positive about pretty much
everything, right?
So, keep looking at that, and keep looking for that in situations
where it’s hard to find.

appropriate receptacle or vessel for Me.
I elude them. In their tiny square little minds there is by far not
enough room for Me. They may consider their own minds the
zenith of evolution and the sum of all wisdom, but for Me it’s
not much more than a sad joke.
They don’t even give Me a chance. Just like the Scribes and
Pharisees, they resist all that I do and would do. They truly
consider Me their competition. They want to be the providers of
religion and spirituality for the people, and they consider any
actual influence and interference from Me intrusive and
bothersome. They get annoyed by Me, and when it all comes
down to it, they can’t stand Me.
That’s why their relationship with Me is limited to having
created an idea in their heads that they pretend to “worship.” In
reality they only worship themselves, but that would sound or
look too conceited even according to their own standards, so
they camouflage their self-worship as some sort of milk-toast,
lukewarm, politically correct soft-drink religion – well, you know
what I think about that sort of stuff (Rev.3:16).
Once you realize how terribly deceived some people are, the
truth – as shabby as it may look at times – suddenly receives a
new value, and you start appreciating it a lot more for the rare
treasure it is.
229 ___________________________________________________
In order to receive anything from Me one has to apply and
exert that drawing power of faith, as opposed to a doubting
mind (James 1:5-8). The drawing power and your effort of faith
are the prerequisite and the condition of our contract that you
have to keep, it’s your part of the deal and of the bargain, and
sometimes that may also include having to wait on Me a little.
There has got to be some kind of vacuum for Me to fill. My Spirit
can’t flow into an already full space… You’ve got to make some
room for Me first and empty yourself, create a space for Me to
fill.
You’ve got to want to know something new that you don’t know
yet, and receive the answer to some question, or at least some
filling in of some blank space in your life.
If you already have plans and know what you’re going to do,
then it’s hard for Me to show you or give you instructions,
unless you ask Me, “Lord, is there anything else You would like
me to do or to keep in mind, apart from what I already know I’ve
got to do?”
If you already feel satisfied and there is no spiritual hunger,
then My Spirit will hardly ever descend as some icing on a
cake… It likes to fill the hungry with goods, but if you’re already
stuffed then you might simply have to wait until you’re hungry
again…
230 ___________________________________________________
When it’s just about your assurance that I haven’t forsaken
you, which you should have even if I don’t talk to you some
mornings, then the vacuum or power of the flow isn’t as strong
as when there is truly a needful purpose for a certain
message…
It’s the same as when you have to repeat something to one of
your children or pupils that they already ought to know: you
don’t say it with the same emphasis as you may have done the
first time around, and you might even hesitate and wait to see if
perhaps they are going to remember and the answer is going to
come to them without your having to repeat yourself.
Direct interaction and communication with people involving
your personal presence, rather than just some medium, does
have an additional impact, even though it may be more
cumbersome.
It’s the advantages of personal witnessing over mass
witnessing via media such as the Internet.
I would recommend to aim for a higher percentage of personal
witnessing in your outreach, so that it cannot be said of you,
“This you should have done, but not left the other undone.”
There is nothing that generates resources like personal contact.
Your being there as an actual person bears greater significance
than you sometimes would want to acknowledge.
Your presence is required. I and they need you around. You’ve
got to make yourself a little more visible.
You make an extra effort to be nice when you confront
someone personally, which you may not always make from
behind the curtain of anonymity.
231 ___________________________________________________
Sometimes you have to specifically listen for My voice.
When you notice you’re in bad shape and you need the answer
and the solution, it’s time to stretch out your feelers directly for
Me.
When there has been enough of bad and negative input
flooding you from all sides, and you’re discouraged, then it’s
time to avail yourself of My Presence.
Sometimes all that negative input about what’s going on in the
world has a negative effect on you, and you need to plug in to
My channel and input again.
You look around at all these other people, and they all seem to
have so much more than you. What have you got? You wonder.
What – aside from this voice giving you directions, and a little
bit of faith in My Promise that this voice, this gift is worth more
than all their seeming advantages over you?
What greater weapon is there?
Some may have greater knowledge than you about certain
things. But knowledge can leave you feeling pretty powerless
sometimes when it seems to show that you’re up against a
physically vastly superior opponent. So what else have you
really got going for you other than your faith in My Promises
that in the end you will turn out to be the victor even against all
odds?
232 ___________________________________________________
Your faith is needed most in the dark and trying moments
when things don’t appear to make perfect sense upon first
glance. It would be easy to trust when everything flows
smoothly.
But while I do bless your obedience, it is also very important
that your trust is truly solely in Me, not in your own good works.
Your faith can’t be a mix of trust in Me and reliance on your own
merits. Isn’t it thus that even your obedience is largely a work
of My grace?
It takes an extra specific effort to make sure you’re giving Me all
the glory for something accomplished. It may not necessarily
come automatically.
Only then can I continue to bless you, inspire you and give you
more, when I see that you’re not about to pocket the credit
yourself for any of these things I give you because you’re
obviously giving Me all the credit for it.
It’s part of the mechanism that’s required in order to ensure the
continuation of the flow of My Spirit and blessings in your life.
It’s measured by the amount you praise and thank Me.
Mine is not so much a religion of “don’ts” as some church
people seem to have the impression, as it is one of “dos,” and
there are more things you’ve got to do in order to please Me
than there are things you shouldn’t do. In other words, being a
good Christian and fighter for My Cause is more manifested in
the things you do than what you don’t do.
That’s one big difference between the Old and the New
Testament. While the 10 Commandments consisted of a lot of
“don’ts,” in the New Testament I have given you a new
commandment that consists primarily of “dos.” It’s not so
much anymore about rules that may not be broken and
negatives you should avoid, as it is about things you should do
and actually positive actions that should be on every believer’s
schedule.
Most people still prefer a religion of “don’ts.” It’s easier in some
ways. They just have to stick to the rules they’re not supposed
to break. They don’t have to develop any initiative, don’t have to
look around for ways and possibilities of implementing and
putting into action all the things that I told them to actually do:
To do unto others as you would have them do to you, to go into
all the world to preach the Gospel to every creature, to love
your neighbor as thyself, etc.
That’s why a lot of people go back to the Old Testament and
would rather stick to the 10 Commandments, and the “don’ts.”
It’s a religion of avoiding negatives, not one of implementing
positives and positive action. It’s a religion of avoiding sin,
rather than one of actually doing good.
So, why did I install the Old Testament system in the first place,
you wonder? Well, perhaps to show the difference. Just as I’ve
had to show that the Spirit is superior to the flesh. I’ve had to
become flesh in order to prove that the Spirit is superior. I’ve
had to show up a better way by demonstrating its superiority
over the previous way, the old way, the way of the past.
There was a way of the past, the way we used to do it, and there
was a new way. There is a way that is destined to be abolished
and done away with, and there is an eternal way.
Even if the old way was implemented by Me.
Back then, things like good and evil were much more clearly
defined, and we had just come from a past in which evil had
been rampant, and so the emphasis was on keeping evil in
check. When I came, I opened up new pathways of enabling
mankind to actually do good via My grace and the pouring out
of My Spirit, rather than just continually strive to avoid doing
evil.
So, is it true that you may have to go through trials and battles
that most people won’t have to go through? Yes. Does that
mean that you are forsaken by Me and I have ceased to bless
you? No. To the contrary: If I am correcting you and allowing
you to pass through times of Gethsemane and purging, it
means I’m working intensively on and in your life. Something’s
happening there. I’m doing something. And you’re just going to
have to trust Me for it, that it’s going to be good.
233 ___________________________________________________
I’m a communications freak! Everything’s about
communication, as far as I’m concerned. That’s why I
vehemently fight it when the Enemy or some wrong concept in
people’s minds, or some misunderstanding taints their image of
Me and tells them that I’m secluded and uncommunicative and
withdrawn, when I’m the sheer opposite.
I’ve got a lot to say!
I have to keep reminding folks how much I love them and that
everything is going to be alright.
It’s almost a little bit like having to supervise a globe full of
Alzheimer patients…
People forget so many things that are essential and vital to
remember for a happy and peaceful life.
So, you do well to let Me remind you of the essential each day.
I’m taking care of you. And you can comfort others with the
same comfort and reassurance that you receive from Me.
That’s the best thing anyone could possibly do with their lives,
pass My comfort on to others.

open for surprises, trusting Me that whatever I will bring across
your path will be good.
Trust is something more worthwhile to acquire than knowledge.
The kind of knowledge I would like you to gain is the knowing
and assurance that you can trust Me beyond a shadow of a
doubt. It’s that knowing from the heart, an assurance, a
conviction that will get you much further than any accumulation
of data ever could.
It’s the Spirit, rather than the cold, factual information value of
what’s being said that truly increases your faith, and thus your
spiritual bank account. While the acceptance of certain facts
can indeed be helpful to get you there, it’s not the A and O, it’s
not all there is to it.
Love is still the main thing.
You may figure, if information was the factor that got everything
started in the beginning, then information must be the key to
creation magic. But what you need to realize – and this is a
factor that eludes most of those brainy types who are trying to
figure out evolution – is that the essence of the information at
the core of creation is love. It’s loving information, to try to put
it somewhat into human terms.
The information is not the most important part of it, but love is.
The information may be the more or less “visible” or
comprehensive part of it, while love is the large space in-
between those particles that can be perceived, but love is still
the gist of it.
It is love that initiates the information. Of course, it is the
Enemy’s goal to try to eliminate or hide that factor totally from
mankind’s perception, which is also the reason why so few
people can believe in a God of love or force of love behind
everything. But that’s where your role comes in to remind
people that there is more beyond that apparent nothingness
and meaninglessness that they see.
All they may see is void, dark and empty space. But you know
by faith that just one layer beneath that appearance lies the all-
encompassing power of love, and the emptiness is basically
not much more than a temporary illusion.
It may seem like stone cold, hard fact to the rational observer,
but you’ve got My word that there’s more to it. In the beginning
there was information, and that information was love, because
it was also God, and God is love (John 1:1, 1John 4:8).
There’s more to everything than meets the eye, and I am trying
to convey some of that “more” to you and others of My mouth
pieces and vessels in order to prepare folks for it. There’s a
whole lot more coming ‘round the bend, and they might as well
get prepared for it.
Those who think that what they know and perceive is all there is
are going to get quite a big surprise.
Some folks don’t like surprises, especially when they’re
comfortable with the way things are. But when the way things
are spells a life less than sufficient, much less comfortable for a
large number of others, then I’m not too concerned about the
feelings of those who would like to preserve their comfy
coziness…
My essence is revolution: revolution of love, and it’s going to
cause quite a rattle and a stir in the lives of those interested in
preserving their stagnant and rotting status quo.
The fundamental difference has always been between those
who clung to the old, existing system, and those who were
ready to let it go in favor of the new, which is, in essence, that
which I want to bring into the world and into each individual life
that is ready and makes room for it.
236 ________________________________________________
Welcome back to the throne room, the broadcasting head
central station from which all My transmissions and
communications with My children around the world(s) are
emitted…
Of course, they’re being brought to you via My helpers, and all
via spiritual communication: no wires or technological
gimmicks needed, and yet tailored for each individual purpose.
(That’s) another reason why the Spirit World is superior to the
physical, and another advantage of spirit over flesh: it’s a lot
less complicated. A lot less is needed. Everything is stripped
down to a “lite” version of its counterparts in the physical
world: you don’t need big heavy TV sets in order to receive
visions from distant locations, or radios, nor phones, for “voice
messages…”
You might need a receptacle in order to gather and collect and
“catch” the words, but My angels and spirit helpers don’t. They
just pass them on the way they come from My heart…
Spiritual communication is freer, and I’m preparing you for the
liberties of the world to come. To become skilled in the arts of
spiritual communication can really be of great advantage to
you, and that’s why I’m stressing it.
I want you to become so good at it, that you can hear My voice
and those of your helpers under any circumstances.
Eventually we might have to swap to a different mode, where
you don’t write down everything I tell you anymore, and you
won’t need that medium anymore, but you will be able to write it
on the tablet of your heart right away!
It’s like a new method of data transfer that automatically stores
the information on your main hard drive and motherboard,
instead of having to retrieve it from some other medium and
process it first…
We’re talking advanced spiritual communication here. -
Advanced spiritual information exchange. - Advanced spiritual
data transfer. You’ve simply got to get into the habit of seeking
Me for messages in any situation, even if you don’t have any
means to write down what I’m telling you.
Just try to stay plugged in to My Spirit anywhere you go. Try to
stay inspired! Try to stay in “CQ” mode! Try to stay in receptive
mode and on “standby” anywhere you go and anywhere you
are.
That’s the epitome of the meaning of “Watch and pray!” It
means to always stay alert and attuned to My Spirit. What better
safeguard and defense against the Enemy’s vibes, attacks and
temptations is there?
It goes along with “Pray without ceasing!” Take advantage of
the fact that it’s so easy. You don’t need any equipment! If you
can stay online with your computer nearly all the time, then why
shouldn’t you keep that little computer between your ears
online and in tune with Me and My Great Link?
237 ________________________________________________
Words can only go so far. Prayers can go way beyond what
your words or even your actions could ever accomplish,
because it gets the Spirit World to move into action on your
behalf, and that’s where by far the bulk of the action is
happening and originates in the first place.
You might say, it’s the “Trigger World,” the one that got
everything started, and for the most parts keeps triggering and
keeps getting started processes in the natural world.
Just as the brain initiates any action that your hands are going
to take, or any movement your legs and feet are going to make
in a certain direction, so the Spirit World is the initiator of
what’s happening in the physical realm, where the initial
impulse meets upon the human relays and switch-points,
waiting for the individual reactions of either accepting and
processing the impulse, or rejecting it, and thus action in the
physical realm is born.
Of course, there are baser processes which don’t require actual
conscious decisions, but you know that even on the lowest
levels of life exchange of information is happening, so
basically, the principle applies to all of life.
I utter the commandment, and the desired result, of course, is
obedience, and the execution of the order. What complicates
matters is that through the first human choice to disobey, Satan
has been granted the power to issue his own orders and initiate
processes on his own, which, of course counter My workings,
and in actuality threaten to take over the matrix of creation like
a bad virus that can rapidly infect a whole computer system.
I basically try to save whatever I can save and whatever data,
information, soft- and hardware won’t be rendered obsolete by
his infection before I will have to “reformat” and install My
System anew.
You might say, by allowing sin to enter into the world, man has
allowed all of creation to be infected by a virus that is
threatening to destroy it, except that I won’t let it happen.
Remember that My name means Savior, and I will save and
rescue My Own, I promise.
238 ________________________________________________
It takes fight and effort to stay positive. It’s easy to allow
yourself to be overwhelmed by a negative world view and the
negative vibes the Enemy lets loose on the world.
The world isn’t getting any better, and if you look at the
circumstances, it can all be a little depressing at times.
Negativity and depression are enemies you need to constantly
fight to keep at bay and wield the weapons of My Word, of
praise and of a positive mindset against. No matter how bleak
the outlook, you’ve got to keep your eyes on what’s beyond all
that’s immediately before you.
I’m your Savior, here to rescue you out of this mess. If there
were no mess, there wouldn’t be a need for a Savior, right? So,
the mess is there for a purpose: to remind you that you need
Me.
You’re proving that it’s not necessary for people to take upon
their own shoulder the Devil’s load and the heavy yoke of the
System, and that living the way I said in My Word is still
possible today: My disciples can still take My light burden and
easy yoke upon them in this day and age, and not live under the
pressure of the burden the Enemy would like to heap upon
them and enslave them with.
This is hardly ever the way of popularity, because initially the
flesh wants to take on that load to show and prove what it can
do by itself. Let’s face it: what reaps applause and admiration in
this world is usually a show and display of strength of some
kind, or at least of man’s own wit. Saying you’re too weak to
actually do it yourself and that you rely on Me for strength isn’t
exactly the popular thing to do.
The problem is that there comes a time in every man’s life when
they will face a situation in which they won’t cope anymore;
latest when they’ll have to face their passage from this life into
the next… And, of course, that is the moment they all dread,
and nobody wants to be reminded of it, much less make
preparations for it…
And then they’re all shocked and act really upset when “it”
actually does happen to someone they know…
As if they had never ever taken the possibility into
consideration…
So, while things may sometimes not be looking too rosy for you
in your immediate surroundings in a world where everyone
chooses to live for the here and now, feverishly fighting to
ignore the There and Then, in the overall view of the whole
picture, you’re actually making the smarter move.
At least you won’t be as shocked when the curtain comes
crashing down.
It’s almost as if you’re anticipating My allowing something to
happen that will finally wake them up, shake them up, and shut
some of them up, too, who spout their Gospel of false peace
and prosperity forever… the gospel of the flesh…
It’s as if they invest their lives only in one half of their journey
and only take fuel and baggage for the first half of their trip, and
when they get toward the other part, which is actually much
larger, they find themselves empty and wanting, and often
having headed in the wrong direction during the first part.
We’re back to the Real Thing vs. the big fake. Is the Real Thing
always the easier thing, or the more popular? No. But is it still
the Real Thing that’s going to outlast the fake? Yes.
Be glad that what you’re investing your life in isn’t as short-
lived as the things most folks are investing their lives in, or
rather, wasting them on, that you’re going to be able to enjoy
the dividends of your investments in the much larger part of the
journey of your life, namely Eternity.
They’re trying to tell you that yours is the fake and theirs is the
real thing, but you’re doing well to give heed to Me instead, and
not listen to them, even though they all sound so convinced of
themselves and sure make a racket…
We don’t need all the big loud rah-rah and fanfare they’re
making. The real thrills lie in the silence, in the little things that
the big guns are tempted to ignore altogether… The real thrill
lies in the still, invisible and unnoticed spaces in-between the
whopping chunks of matter, and our “nothing” may yet turn out
to be more than all their somethings….
239 ________________________________________________
There are different facets of service to Me: there are the
tasks of building up the church and preaching the Gospel, and
there are tasks of healing, of casting out of spirits, which
include addressing the negative side of things.
If you’re in tune with Me, you can be pretty sure that what I am
laying on your heart to publish is from Me.
I use you as a spice of variety in My potpourri of the message
that I want to give to the world.
Different strokes for different folks…
The peak of showing that you’re educated and mature people
would be to show tolerance toward each other and each other’s
different styles…
Some are called to burn their candle at both ends, others are
destined to burn perhaps less brightly, but longer. Now it
behooves every man to abide in their calling…
240 ________________________________________________
Not everybody is the same, and not everybody’s callings
are the same. I don’t allow everybody to make the same
experiences. Not everybody is able to handle the same amount
of pain.
There is a right time for everything, and you’re simply going to
have to trust that I will judge matters and each individual fairly
and in my own perfect time.
In the meantime, remember Paul’s advice to live peaceably with
all men as much as it is in you, meaning, you should strive for a
peaceful coexistence with your fellowmen as much as possible.
Love, especially shown by those who are supposed to be more
mature, and especially in situations when it may be
unwarranted or perhaps undeserved, is definitely not a
weakness, but can be a force for the better and helpful in
turning things toward a better development than what you
personally experienced.
It may be a test of generosity, too: How much more are you
willing to grant them than you personally received?
Of course, it’s a natural tendency to say, “Well, I didn’t receive
any more love and understanding in similar situations either, so
why should I show it to them?”
But remember the love and understanding and goodness and
patience you did receive and experience from My hand and
heart, personally, and then try to extend some of that love,
tolerance and acceptance toward them that you have known
from Me.
Don’t treat them according to the harshness and lack of love
you may have experienced at the hand of your fellow humans,
but treat them according to the kindness and love and patience
you have experienced from Me!
Treat others differently than you have been treated and break
the vicious cycle by a reversal of the usual order of things of
hurting and being hurt. Why not extend some healing balm of
love and forgiveness for a change, instead of more rejection
and hostility, even if supposedly unmerited?
Things simply keep getting worse in this world; that’s one of its
qualities. Except that some things do get better. While the world
keeps deteriorating, I also know how to preserve unto Myself a
special remnant that I refine unto Myself so that they, contrary
to the course of the rest of all things, do improve and get better
over time.
You may think that a lot of things definitely used to be better in
its past. - A lot of things, yes. - But not all things. And that’s
where it pays to trust in and see My wisdom in things, to look
out for the little details… The tiny little improvements that may
not be quite obvious to the eye, but that are nonetheless there,
and that make your existence actually quite tolerable.
I have to adapt My people to the times and situations they’re
living in, and since the times in general have grown worse, it
may also seem as if My people had been affected by that course
and have deteriorated, too, but if you look closer – and, if it
were possible, from a neutral, unbiased viewpoint – you will
actually see that improvement, maturation, progress and
growth has taken place, even if the overall picture may
somewhat strike you as worse…
I know how to keep My own from the process of decay and
deterioration that is affecting most of the rest of the world. Even
with all the constant worsening of the world, I can effect some
improvements within some chosen regions and aspects of the
world, and I keep painting and building and establishing My Big
Picture within the crumbling picture of the Matrix. I keep
filtering My eternal and lasting chosen elements out of this
world from among all the temporal that is destined to crumble.
So, don’t dismay at the appearance of things getting worse and
worse everywhere around you, but look at the miracle of My
progress and improvement that I manage to bring about in spite
of and even in the midst of all that decay and deterioration!
Look at My salvaging power and capability to preserve unto Me
anything I like out of this crumbling world, including you and
anyone else who will turn to Me and thus refuse to take part in
the process of all things decaying.
Instead of joining the rest of the Devil’s matrix in the process of
decay, those who cling to Me and keep their focus on Me
actually improve. They turn to gold while the fires of tests and
time will consume all else around them. Only My chosen
elements and lasting values will remain.
While the larger aspect of things may be obviously negative, if
you have a closer look at the details of My workings, and what
I’m doing, you’ll actually see a lot of positive things, and thus
enough reason for a positive, cheerful and optimistic attitude!
Positiveness really is the ability to look past and beyond all the
negativity around you at that perhaps quantitatively smaller and
lesser factor and amount of good things simultaneously
wrought by Me while the world follows its usual course of
decay.
The world around your ears may be crumbling and falling apart,
and all the while, from its ashes, another better one is rising, a
lasting one. You are only the tip of the iceberg, the tip of the
mountain that will one day fill the entire earth, as Daniel
prophesied (Dan.2:35, 44).
Compared to all the mayhem and destruction around you, that
tiny tip may not seem like much, and all the evil in the world
may seem overwhelming by comparison, but just wait and see:
I’m not done yet. It’s merely the tip of the iceberg that’s going to
sink the Devil’s proud and haughty Titanic, and that mountain is
going to fill the earth, even as I have promised.
Time can bring quite radical and sudden reversals of situations,
positions and circumstances, and that’s what you call
revolution, which is what I am all about.
I am Revolution.
241 ________________________________________________
I wouldn’t believe in Me, either, if I really were the type of
God as which some imagine Me…
Of course, the other factor they don’t want to confront, and are
not ready to accept as reality, is the Devil. It scares them to
even consider that he might be real, and thus they laugh him
and his existence off, along with the whole caboodle of Me, the
Spirit World, and just about anything supernatural.
Everybody considers their own lot the hardest, and they
complain to Me, how could I, of all things, allow just that to
happen to them…
But who ever said that life was supposed to be all and
exclusively fun? Look at all the many lives for whom life is
never any fun at all, and mostly due to the selfishness of those
who are doing so much better, relatively, and still complain the
loudest…
If, instead of all their complaining about an unjust God, they
would only do something to alleviate the suffering, soon there
might not be anything left to complain about.
Life has its ways of castigating you for your sins of thinking
you were doing so great…
you were doing better when you knew that you were not doing
so hot…
I want to make sure you know that it’s not because of your own
merit that things have worked out.
It wasn’t so much because you were “on the right track” as it
was because I love you. It wasn’t as much due to your own
goodness as it was due to My love for you.
Many atheists want the glory and credit for themselves, which
is exactly what the Devil wanted, too, and it shows just how
much alike their ways of thinking are, and another factor why
they refuse to accept him as a reality: If they would accept the
Devil as a reality, they would actually recognize the similarities
between their trains of thought.
If there would be a party presenting Lucifer as the “cool dude”
that he makes himself up to be, they would probably rally
behind him and say, “Yeah, we can relate to his way of
thinking,” and that’s what’s basically going to happen when the
AC rises; they will recognize him: “Now that’s our man!”
Those atheists say that faith is a crutch, but I’m saying, “Well,
let’s see how much further all those human crutches are going
to get you that you are relying and leaning on and putting your
trust in!” Everybody puts their faith and trust in something or
someone.
They put their faith in man, or – if worst comes to worst –
themselves, and they will have to find out where that faith is
going to land them.
You trust in Me, and I insist that you do trust in Me alone, and
ultimately, I promise, you will see that you will have chosen well
to do so, or at least to consent to My removing all your other
crutches…
I regularly have to convince you anew that it pays to put your
trust in Me, more than it does to put your trust in things and
people or your own mind, etc.
I prove to you over and over again that it pays to trust in Me. It’s
My personal rebuttal in your life against the Devil’s constant
input and his vibes that he spews out to dissuade you and
persuade you to quit…
242 ________________________________________________
Determine the worth, value and effectiveness of what
you’ve been doing, and whether you would and should be
satisfied with keeping going as you have until here, or should
you seek significant change?
You must grant Me the right to communicate and convey
whatever point I want to make clear in the manner I consider
most effective…
Everybody is fairly quickly concerned when they perceive that
their own rights are being violated and that they are getting less
than what they think they deserve or should be getting, but
sometimes it turns out that they’re having to go through a
particular situation because they were not concerned enough
about their part and role, and that they have to suffer because
they could be giving more…
The question you will want to answer with a definite “yes” some
day when you’ll get Here will be, “Have I done all I possibly
could?” And in order to make sure that this will be the case, I
have to draw your attention – in sometimes painful ways,
granted – to the areas in which you could improve and that are
hindering you from reaching that goal.
You could be doing more and giving more, and so, that’s what
I’m drawing your attention to, and I’m forcing you to confront
this fact and deal with it and see what you’re going to do about
it…
243 ________________________________________________
I have promised that there is nothing that is hidden that
shall not be revealed.
You wonder, what on earth is the sense of all this? You can’t
make it out! It’s impossible. You can’t cope with the mess and
the confusion. You wonder what on earth is going on here…
How is anybody supposed to figure it out?
Well, you don’t have to.
All you can do is trust that I will fulfill My Promise that
everything that is now hidden shall be revealed! No question
marks, no confusion left. You will perfectly understand then.
All that’s required is a little patience, a little hope, and some
faith that it’s going to happen in due time, and that all things are
moving toward that point of total revelation!
I will clear up all misunderstandings, questions, unsolved
problems and doubts, because nothing will remain hidden or
unclear or in the dark, it will all come out into the light and will
be revealed and examined: all that has been covered up
throughout history, causing deceit and misunderstanding.
There will be nothing left remaining in the dark.
You’ve got to realize, though, that this promise can’t possibly
be fulfilled completely during your lifetime and in the here and
now, as much as you would like to understand, analyze and
define what’s happening. You’d like to be able to put your finger
on it and explain it: “That’s the way it is!”
But it isn’t quite that simple. Your flesh and your momentary
still somewhat carnal mind and thus very limited
comprehension simply won’t allow you to grasp the sum total
of everything… You wouldn’t be able to handle it.
That’s another reason why I said, “The flesh profiteth nothing.”
Even if one would try to explain all things to the carnal mind, it
couldn’t handle it. That’s why I won’t even try, but I will ask you
instead to have a little faith and look toward that day when all
things shall be revealed.
I cannot possibly reveal all things to you right now. Your mind
couldn’t handle it!
You’re just going to have to wait for the right time, the perfect
time, the time when that which is perfect will have come…
(1Cor.13:10)
For those who want to know everything, tell them to cheer up:
“Nothing is hidden that shall not be revealed.” That’s a Promise
that all of you really curious folks can look forward to being
fulfilled by Me. It’s going to be a great day indeed.
On a personal and individual level, it happens to some extent at
the moment of a person’s death. They’re finding out a lot of
things about their lives that they didn’t see during their life-
times, and they’re being shown the gist of the hidden meaning
of things in their own personal lives for starters.
And the learning continues and goes on and on from there.
What good would Judgment day be if there was nothing to be
learned from all that has been done wrong throughout history,
including the hidden sins and crimes and deceptions that went
on behind the scenes that never came out?
You’re simply not aware of a lot of things the Enemy does
behind the scenes, nor are you aware of all the workings that
his people are up to. And it’s not necessarily the right time to
find out all these things right now. But I can promise you this,
that it will all come out in the open, and everything will be
revealed and made clear.
No more questions and confusion then.
244 ________________________________________________
If you focus on witnessing, then opportunities to witness
are also going to arise. If you make witnessing your goal and
what you want to do, because you just happen to know that it’s
what pleases Me most, then I will open doors for you to witness.
If you stay in tune with My Spirit, focusing outward and seeking
ways to reach out to others and to fulfill My commandment to
preach to every creature, then you will find that I will also
supply outlets and vessels for you to pour into.
If you’ve got something to give and you’re focused on giving,
then they’re going to come to get it.
If you know that that’s your goal and the best possible thing
you can do with your time, and you focus on it and walk toward
that goal, then you will also reach it, and opportunities will arise
to make it happen.
As long as you keep seeking Me for the utmost possible you
can do and for the most efficient way I can use you, I will keep
revealing these things to you and show you the way I can use
you most.
Positively look around for more and other things you could do,
instead of eying your situation negatively and finding flaws in it.
Of course your situation has flaws. There isn’t anybody on
earth in a perfect situation. Everybody and every situation has
flaws, and some of the worst messes you’ve known came from
the most ideal circumstances…
You have to stay aware of the fact that this life is and will
always be imperfect. Those who strive for perfection will sooner
or later have to come to grips with the fact that they’re chasing
a ghost, and flawless perfection is just not going to be attained
in this life. If you want the perfect, you’ll have to wait for Me,
and in the meantime you can strive to look for Me and see Me
as much as you can in every day of your life, even – or
especially – in the seemingly so far from perfect and crazy little
circumstances I allow to arise everywhere around you.
Faith is taking the craziness of it all and the apparent mess that
life consists of and wrapping it up in a bundle of faith, trusting
Me for it, and – as I have promised – that in due time all things
shall be revealed and they will wind up making perfect sense to
you.

world without Me, and instead, with the one in charge who has deliverance until you realize you’re a captive.
The realization of the unjust and pointless system of the Devil
is more apt to drive you into positive action and actual fight for
Me, My Cause, My Kingdom and My truth, than if I just allow you
to complacently continue living your life.

The confrontation with and realization of evil spurs you into

action, and puts you in a mood that makes you determined to
change something, or address certain issues that aren’t right.
When everything is just honky-dory and everything flows
without much effort, you’re more complacent and satisfied with
things as they are, and thus, less determined to change
anything. You become more conservative, interested in
preserving things as they are instead of changing them.
So it becomes clear why a less-than-perfect situation becomes
preferable to Me.
Routinated people will preserve the routine, the status-quo.
Change-oriented people, who are conscious of the need for
change because they look around at what’s happening all
around them, are not interested in preserving the status quo or
the way things are.
It’s one of the Devil’s tactics: to keep people too busy to look
around at what ought to be changed. As long as the money
keeps flowing in, they figure, “Let’s keep going with whatever
we’re doing.” Money is the life-blood of complacency.

Have you been looking around for possibly needed changes

and improvement? Or have you just been fine with and
complacent about the current flow of things? What would you
do in order to spur your followers on to change?

250 ________________________________________________
To whom much has been given, of him much shall be
required. I’m just making sure that I get My dividends out of
what I invested in you.
I’m not talking about cold transaction here, I’m talking living
relationships.
The love I have poured into you, I want you to pass on to actual,
real live people.

One thing is statistics, and yet another real reactions and

exchange of communication, and yet another progress and
spiritual growth in those people’s lives whom you reach.
You have to judge and evaluate a ministry by its fruit. And if
over a certain amount of time it doesn’t bear any, then you’re
just going to have to consider trying something else…

My favorite approach has always been the personal approach.

There’s nothing like the personal touch and your actual
presence to evoke a reaction to who you are and what you give.
It’s more in the face, more direct, something they can’t get
around and evade…
You are there, and they’re going to have to make a decision
about you.
People have become more spoiled than at any other point in
history.
And finding the exceptions is somewhat hard work that
involves some real looking and searching.

The real thing is the natural thing, the way I made it.

In the real world you’ve got to make an effort to win people, to

not offend people, and the result is that you’re usually more
careful with your words.
You have to abide by the rules of etiquette.
But in exchange it also bears real, tangible rewards.
