About Matthew 6:34
18th September 1842, in the afternoon at 3 o'clock.
"Therefore do not be worried for tomorrow’s day, for tomorrow's day will provide for it’s own. Enough that every day has it’s own plague.”
[1] So write! This text namely has only a natural meaning at first; but regardless of this, it still has a deep heavenly-spiritual meaning, thus like every word that has flowed out of My mouth, since it has also flowed out of My mouth.
[2] What this text – which is to be considered above all – says in the natural respect, is taught in the literal sense. But what it contains in a heavenly-spiritual way, is endlessly great, and it will cost your spirit a mighty effort to only halfway understand only a smallest part of it!
[3] You will say: How can this then be possible? For we have already grasped many a difficulty – how should just that then be incomprehensible? But I say: Just patience! A few small allusive rehearsals will immediately convince you of how difficult it is for those who are not yet fully in the heavens to grasp the heavenly-spiritual meaning of this text!
[4] There are still many such texts, but this one is one of the most difficult, because it is based purely on the highest wisdom. So – to the test:
[5] "Do not worry!" means as much as: Prophesy not. "For tomorrow’s day" means: For the supreme wisdom of the eternal Spirit from God. "For tomorrow’s day will provide for his own, that is: This Wisdom needs no helper. "It is enough that every day has it’s own plague! This means: It is enough for you that every spirit filled with love for the Father is given a fair share of wisdom according to the strength of his love!
[6] But this is the easier sense to understand. But hear now another, which reads: Do not worry about the abundance of future eternities, because they are already fulfilled in My Spirit; it is enough that before your eyes, the present is infinite!
[7] Behold, this sense is already more difficult to grasp in it’s fullness. But we want to pursue the meanings even deeper; and so further pay attention to what else the text says.
[8] It further says this: Let love bear no grief for wisdom; it is enough that the highest wisdom takes care of love. Behold, this is already more difficult to understand in the innermost depth.
[9] Further: Let not life ask for the day of death, for death already provides for it’s day; but for you the day of life is enough! Behold, this is already much deeper again!
[10] But we want to go even deeper, and there it says: Do not burn the oil in the lamp by day, for the day has it’s light; but in the night do not let the oil run out and plague your heart with the shimmer of the lamp, so that in it, the light of the day of life does not go out! See, by how much deeper and more difficult this sense lies again.
[11] But let us still go even a little further, it already will become even better; and so it says further: Let not a free word seek it’s essence, for word and essence are one; but every word has it’s own essence anyway. Do you understand this very well? That will sure be difficult.
[12] But just keep listening! A gift is just if the giver is a wise giver, so do not worry about the gift, but about the giver; for by the giver, the gift is sanctified! Behold, this is already much deeper again!
[13] But I want to give you a deeper meaning, so that you can see from it the endless depth that is in this text; and so keep on listening, for so it says further: Do not desire to be a judge at the great
wheel of infinity, for it is enough that there is an eternal judge; but to you is given a wheel of your own – see that this remains in the track of life!
[14] Behold, therefore, in such texts one sense always conceals the other up to infinity, and each revealed sense has in itself again, that is, in and of itself again, infinity. Therefore such a text can rightly be called elusive, because it’s fullness is infinite.
[15] From this, however, the pure divinity and the great importance of such texts can also be recognized, if they contain such infinite things in themselves!
[16] For this reason you should not consider the easy texts to be shallow; for the more openly any literal sense expresses itself, the deeper lies the spiritual-heavenly sense. Therefore, however, such texts are to be observed most carefully even in the literal sense, so that through them the Spirit may become alive for the depths of the heavens! Consider these things exceedingly well – and who He is Who advises you such things through the servant, Amen.
