            The Word of God[1] at the Feast of the 40 holy Martyrs from Sebaste

Open to Me, sons! I have set you on guard to open to Me when you hear that I come to speak, either to give you word for those that you have worked or not worked, or to open My book and set Me in it and share My speaking to those to whom or for whom I speak, and behold My work with you between heaven and earth and then My protection for it and for you, sons! 

This is the day of the feast of the holy martyrs, and I, the Lord, am coming to lay Myself out as word into the book. You know how much comfort is for the Lord and saints when I tell you to open your book to welcome My speaking and to share it with those who eat from it, but My comfort is even greater when I fulfill Myself in those who receive Me from you for their life with God, a good life, from which holy life and sweet moments are born between them and Me, and then a path to the spring at the feasts, when I spend with the people gathered together and strengthen them on their sweet way of the life with God on earth, for much prayer wait for the heaven on earth for God’s welfare with man, and man’s with God, for the love of God, from Whom good comes over many, oh, sons, for behold, I have you on these lands and I take care that evil thins may not happen here, and I do good to those who love you on earth, for I am the merciful One, sons.

I showed you one day, not long ago, a little soul who went to the Lord and who loved you, and he saw that you are Mine and you work with Me on earth, and this little soul brought you true news: that happy are in heaven those who love you on earth. Oh, you have holy work from Me to do, to lift up to heaven services and prayers of forgiveness for those that leave the earth, known and not known to you, and great comfort is given to them when help comes to heaven for those who are from the earth here, from you, for all do as the world does that sacrifices for those who are asleep and not as one receives in heaven to help those who wait for their salvation, which they have not worked on earth. Oh, and that is why I have filled you with mercy, sons, I have given you work from heaven and I have prompted you to help those who are mourned, and who have no one to help them on earth with supplications before the Lord, for their rest and for the release of the punishments of their sins; nevertheless, you should catch strength, love and mercy for them, and go, children, in this way, and give many a helping hand for it is hard there where they are and there is no greater work on earth than to live and save to escape from torments those who leave their body unprepared and uncleaned of the sins committed, and I strengthen you for the merciful work, and I always strengthen you for the preparation of the resurrection of the creature from all ages, oh, sons, as for the resurrection of all did I come on earth, and, being raised from death, I gave the earnest of the resurrection to those who will rise on My day of glory. (See the selection topic: „Resurrection of the dead”, r.n.)

And now, we are raising up a day of feast and holy remembrance, and of steadfast faith of those forty testifying martyrs, who, for their faith in their Lord, Jesus Christ, suffered martyrdom on the way to heaven in the mountain lake from Sebaste, and thus they passed to the heavenly horizons, into those that are not seen of the heavenly Father.

Sons, sons, these martyrs loved to the end, to their end on earth. Whoever does not love to the end, that one is not a Christian, for Christians are those who love and do not deny God; they endure to the end and carry their cross, trampling on pleasures and desires. You cannot love but only through the fellow men you have loved, and if you do not love to the end, you separate after a long time from love and lack of judgment, and then it happens to you as it happened with Adam, who fell from God’s presence and became temporary with his body and remained under the pain of unsteadiness in love and faith, as all who leave My today’s way, for their way without Me remains with the memory of the most beautiful years of their life, the years with the Lord on the way with the cross of their self-denial and the overcoming of all temptations, as many as they come, the only years lived in their life on earth, and behold, the love of God cannot be temporary but only to the end, and then its eternity.

Oh, sons, against the death of the soul and the torment that comes after that, you have to fight against the body and the devil all the time, you have to fight against sleep, you must overcome hunger, and hunger is not only that which comes from the food you eat, but especially is the hunger after yourself, after pleasures, after desires and their temporariness, and for all the sins of life one must always repent, he must always have tears of hope and not without hope. Oh, repent deeply from all that you have done against God in you and with you! If you may try to forget all that you have done wrong, then this is seen, oh, sons, when man does this. Then, when does man repent and when does he atone his sins with tears, oh, when?  

Oh, sons, many believe that they love Me, that they give Me their heart, that they rejoice Me and glorify My name, but these forget with how many sins they hurt Me, with how many nails they pin Me by their life far from My holiness in man, and these know nothing about the love of God, for it is only sufferance, only longing to the end, only a grieving expectation by longing, a struggling life for My dwelling in man, for holiness all the time, oh, and only then can it be about the love of God and about His praise coming from the heart and mouth of the holy one and full of repentance in all his time on earth.

Oh, sons whoever has no part of sufferance, trials, defamations, persecutions, shortcomings, great humility, someone like that flies into sin and violates the holiness I have required from man who bears his cross in his mind, heart and body under the cross, sons. Therefore, I said that those who want to come after Me must take up their cross and follow Me with obedience, always with humility, always with self-denial, and this is the cross, and without this no one is able to love God and eternity with Him.

Oh, sons, let no one be My enemy by disobedience, let no one be, of those who understand the way with Me of those who give themselves to God on earth. Behold, I must say and let all remember well: Oh, take care day by day, take care moment by moment, not to work, not to think, not to do anything, anything, except by counsel, sons, for this is how I, the Lord, worked, and God took counsel and worked according to the counsel, as first there was the counsel and then the work, and God saw that it was good. Moreover, if the man I had brought in Paradise worked without any counsel between God and him, behold, he fell from God, he fell by disobedience, he hold counsel with God’s adversary, and this is how, the man God had built, died.

All those who are gathered together in small groups, be wise, sons, lest you may give occasion to the devil to receive fruit from you, to hold counsel with you and to make you fall, for everything a Christian does by himself and without brotherly counsel for his everyday work and moment by moment in a community of disciples, his work is written with the devil, who likes to see My Christian doing the work without blessing and by his own decision, that is without the brotherly advice and without being given to him what to do, no matter how little and insignificant the work may be for the known work.

Oh, he who works something without the church council does not receive any blessings, for God is in the midst of the gods and takes counsel, this is what is written, and you have heard from the one who came out from the among those who were going to heaven, forty in number, and he chose to go out and remained without the great blessing of entering heaven with all those who overcame, oh, and there is no joke with the spirit of obedience and steadfastness for obedience, sons. He who listen is not hurt by anything, and he who does not listen must suffer, and this truth has been all the time, and the most intelligent among people are those who choose to obey, either on their way with Christ, or on their wide way with the sons of men, and faithfulness comes forth and receives wages, as the Christian who listen receives a gift and receives a special brightness, a special light, the light of the wisdom for those who listen and who are more and more alive in their spirit and by the grace of obedience, and some like these are the place of peace, sons, and they are the most alive ones. The living ones are those who have the Lord as their stature, and these have the grace of the sorting out everything: in thought, in speech, in love, in work, in understanding, in all things, sons, and they are the living ones, the working ones, those who are always peaceful and more dedicated, only that they ask for all these, and if they do not ask for them, they remain as they are, and do not want to be alive and to show these, but they remain the last ones, they remain behind.

And for the living life in you and with you we need to speak in each and every detail each time when I come to sit in counsel with you, oh, and we will always keep on the table this working grace and its teaching among you, sons.

However, now I am waiting to come again and again and to sit in counsel, oh, and only in this way do we learn to work on your way with Me, sons, and let they receive exhortation from you, those who feed on My word, because I love and long to stay among you as a Teacher, oh, and the saints come together and take the Lord from My table with you, as you do, and behold, we have a good opportunity for the work of the heaven together with the earth, I with the heaven of saints, and you with the people faithful to My coming of today at you, for I keep
