            The Word of God[1] at the feast of the saint prophet Elijah[2]

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, this is how the word of God comes down from the things from heaven on to the earth to make peace between man and God, and then between man and man. The heaven meets the earth by God’s word and the Lord speaks on the earth, and blessed is the one who has got from God the gift of the holy faith, and blessed is God between Him and the one who is faithful to him, and this is how He makes among people vessels bearing of God and this is how God is on the earth. Amen.

I am Who I am. My name is the Word of God. (Apoc. 19:13) When Elijah, My prophet went up into heaven in a chariot of fire, I, the Lord, gave him word to establish kings and to set Elisha into his place, as his following prophet, and Elijah went to him and found him working with his plough, and Elisha left his work and followed Elijah, who spoke then to him: «Ask what I shall do for you, before I am taken from you», and he answered: «Please let a double portion of your spirit be on me». And Elijah said: «…nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it shall be so to you; but if not, it shall not be so». (2 Kings 2:9, 10 ) Moreover, as they still went on, and talked, there appeared a chariot of fire and horse of fire, which parted them both apart, and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. Then Elijah took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him and struck the waters and they divided here and there and Elisha went over through the midst, and then the disciples of the prophets said: «The spirit of Elijah does rest on Elisha». (2 Kings 2:15)

I have come to throw fire on the earth and I wish it were already kindled (Luke 12:49) and not put out, and that one who has part in this fire kindled in him, that one receives My word and is born from above and he makes My kingdom on the earth, and I can do through him My work which I have to work from the Father. Amen. (See the selection topic: „The apocalyptic fire”, r.n.)

I breathe a threefold spirit upon those who stay within My gates so that My word may come into its book and I tell them this: even if among those who are My people are some who say about you that you are nothing, I, the Lord, with this nothingness am He Who can work, and not with those who know that are righteous, great and good. With these I cannot work for the coming down of My word, for I need in man faith in Me as I require and not as he gives to Me, because I stumble against disbelief, as those who do not believe also stumble against it, and I cannot work through those people and I cannot work through those with My coming of today as word on the earth. I need a faithful man like Elisha, who did not hesitate when he was called to the gift of prophecy so that I might work with him further between Me and man. And what would it really be for Me if I spoke a word of fulfilling just as Elisha spoke over those who were laughing at him and when the beasts of the forest came out and tore many to pieces?

Behold, I made My entrance and I speak to you, My people, and there have come to the spring those with longing and with fire in them for their birth from My word and then for My power in them, so that they might be fulfilled with My power in them and around them and that I may announce Myself from place to place by those who believe in My coming of today. It is the feast of the prophet Elijah and this prophet is great between heaven and earth, for he is within his body and without his body in the eyes of the man, for this are those from heaven before those who are in their body, who strike in the power of the man’s faith, who lives by faith and works likewise, as it is written. (See the selection topic: „Enoch and Elijah”, r.n.)

I am coming with the spirit of comfort over your spirit in this day, My people, for you need much, much comfort. You are under trials and beatings. The spirit of comfort comforts and it does not strike, and those who do not have it from Me in their being, they have each other with their sight, the sight of their body and mind and people like these cannot rest within My mysteries and the mysteries in them either, for they are in the flesh. How comes in the flesh, sons? Oh, their mind does not pass beyond those things that they see with the eyes of their body and with the mind of their body and that is why they do not have in them the spirit of comfort, which comforts and does not crush and it bows down and does not become haughty. Oh, the things from Me between man and man do not stumble against man and against his weaknesses, but they rather stumble against man’s unbelief, for unbelief cannot do anything.

Oh, sons, My enemies were and are the people in My household, not the foreigners, sons: they are those near My work, not the strangers. This is how I was also regarded by the unbelievers, who set their faith in My works according to their mind and not according to My Spirit Who works in the prophets. I could not work in My homeland, for the man’s enemies are those in his household, as it is written. Elijah, My prophet, was helped by those who were strangers for him. When mourning threw him down because of Israel’s departure from God, he delivered a prophetic word for the rain not to fall on the earth, and there was great famine in Israel. However, I told him: «Arise, get you to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain you». (1 Kings 17:9) And he went because of My sending and spoke to the woman: «The jar of meal shall not empty, neither shall the jar of oil, until the day that the Lord sends rain on the earth». (1 Kings 17:14) And if her child fell sick and died, she spoke to Elijah: «You have come to me to bring my sin to memory, and to kill my son?» However, seeing this, he spoke the word and said: «Lord my God, please let this child’s soul come into him again». And then the woman said: «Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in your mouth is truth». (1 Kings 18-24)

Oh, My people, for a long time, long ago, I have wanted to teach you the gift of prophecy, son. Oh, My people, I can do nothing with the unfaithful one or with the one who believes as he wants to believe or with the one who looks for an occasion to fall away; I cannot, I cannot work with a man like that to do My work that has been waited to come out for seven thousand years and then to be. The one who seeks for an opportunity to fall away, that one finds what he looks for, but the one who looks for faith in Me, that one, again, finds what he looks for, and he finds God in his way and not a stumbling block. The man chooses alone what he looks for, and that is why I said that the one who does not stumble against Me for his faith in My works to receive them and then to fulfill them, that one is a blessed man. I said this to My disciples two thousand years ago, for they, being weak people, were stumbling because I had always bowed to the weak people, to those who suffered and to those who were despised, because only those who bowed under My voice calling to rest and peace and comfort, and those who appeared by their state, by their robe that they were righteous, they had always been looking to catch Me by the word, and finding Me guilty to destroy Me with mockery and under cross, for their heart with which they were far away from Me was not able to touch the love and its great work.

You, those who have come today to the spring to learn from it and from the mouth of those by whom I let My word of life giving flow, learn the work of love, for the power of love will have dominion over the whole earth soon, soon, and it will wash away and it will renew it, but you have to work with great mercy by then, with much love of God, much, much labor, but let it be pleased to Me and not to you. He who goes wrong out of love, that one does not go away from Me, for he has a great heart, great in grace, for there is no greater fall with man like that by the sin of judgment, sin that the man punishes with the same measure. Keep away from hatred, from revenge, from wickedness, from slandering, but also keep away from envy more than any sin, for this sin does not forgive man, but it crushes him and it crushes his eyes and mind and it strengthens to judgment. Oh, keep away from unbelief, but also keep away from despair in trials. Strengthen yourselves in the spirit of the firm faith and do not seek after the face of the nature of the tings, but look to those that have been worked by faith and come to be, for I do not stumble across man’s sins for his salvation, but I stumble against his unbelief, for two thousand years ago I said to the people of Israel: «Truly, truly I say to you: John came and you did not believe in him, but he tax collectors and the immoral believed», and to the one who called Me into account about how to pay the workers I answer: «Friend, I am doing no wrong to you! Isn’t it lawful for Me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?». (Matt. 20:15) I came and forgave the debt of the one, who owed Me, and I was upset and spoke in parables, and I said to the one who did not forgive: «You wicked servant! I forgave you all your debt, because you begged Me. Shouldn’t you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you? Now go and pay all your debt; and in this way will pay all those who do not forgive their brothers from all their heart». (See Matt. 18:32-34) Oh, this happened to Israel, poor of it, for it took Me and brought Me to Pilate and said: «If this One had not been a wrong doer we would not have caught
