PRE-CONDITION FOR HEARING GOD'S VOICE - DETACHMENT FROM THE "WORLD"
"You must listen into your innermost, if you want to perceive My voice. This demands a complete sealing off from the earthly world, and a plunging into spiritual thought. It demands a complete emptying of the heart of earthly thought, so that it can then be filled with thought-streams of a purely spiritual nature.
It shall always be difficult for men to fully disengage from the world, by My voice will sound more distinctly, the fewer the thought-impressions of a worldly origin loading the heart. When the heart is emptied completely, My Spirit-stream can flow in unhindered, and this you shall feel as an uninterrupted address, as an overflow of My Spirit in you, and My direct address, which you now perceive as an uttered Word. The more you resist earthly thoughts, the clearer you perceive My voice. And this necessitates constant combat with the outside world, which time and again wants to intrude itself, compelled by My adversary, in order to disturb the dialogue between Father and child. You can avoid this world, - in that you immediately address Me in thought, so that I may prevent this interference. And your will shall be taken into account, as it is turned toward Me.
Only those have a right to hear My voice who are able to detach themselves from the world, to whom I have become a Concept which cannot be replaced by the world, who have recognised Me as their Father from eternity, Who wants to make you His children, and does not let go of you till He has attained His aim.
Once this detachment has taken place, the world will no longer succeed in winning a man back, because My direct address has given him light, and he no longer wishes to do without this light. But he shall, nevertheless, have to permanently struggle with the world, because he lives in its midst, and it seeks to act upon him in every possible way, as it is this confidential address which My opponent wants to disturb in every possible way.
Hence it will always necessitate a strong will to establish the link with Me so intimately that My voice gets through, drowning out the voice of the world. Man's will brings this about; and man will sing nothing but praise and thanks to Him Who addresses him, giving him a gift of immeasurable worth. Because My Word is the visible, or audible, sign of MY endless love for you, My beings. It gives you proof that it lies within your grasp to establish such close union with the highest and most perfect Being that you are able to perceive His voice, and that you possess evidence of this address when you write down His hallowed Word, as you have received it. This supremely perfect Being is addressing you -think about what these Words mean, I speak to you from on High, you hear My voice, you understand what I Am telling you, and you can recognise the voice of your Father in it, Who loves you and wants to possess you forever.
I address you so that you would return to Me, out of your own free will, that you may enter upon the road back to your Father's house to Me, which I want to achieve with My address. But in order to hear this My address, your will must be firm and strong, it must repeatedly seek out the intimate bond with Me Who Am to be found not on the surface of the world, but aside from it. Therefore, all worldly thoughts must be forced back, and you must listen to the stillness of your heart, and then you shall truly perceive My voice in all clearness, as will all to whom My love particularly belongs, who strive to reach My, who are desirous of hearing Me, and to whom I can reveal Myself as I have promised, that I shall come to Mine in Spirit, and that I will be with them to the end of the world. "
Amen
