In My longing for you I keep on the way My coming as word on earth, sons who keep watch over the citadel of My word that I may come and speak over the earth, for I have made Me a citadel at you and with you so that the Lord may be in it with you and to be fulfilled the prophecy which is to speak over the citadel that there the Lord is, and My citadel with you to have this name, to be known this over the earth, and the devil, My enemy and man’s to know it, too, to be afraid now more than any time in the course of time and to see that it is My time, the time of My coming with the saints (Jude: 1/14) in tens of thousands, oh, because I needed to have a citadel with watchmen in it to give them this garden of paradise to work and keep, and the work of My coming as word over the earth after two thousand years, as it is written the account from the Scriptures, at which the today’s man has worked and made changes in such a way that no one on earth may be able to know the time of the Lord’s coming, and all the people to take the Lord away from their way and to remain with this passing age. In addition, behold what this age does, for the sons of this age marry, are given in marriage, and take great care for their fleshly pleasures and their living in sin, all full of this pride face to face with God, the Maker of the heaven, of the earth and man.
Oh, but with you I, the Lord, am with My kingdom from heaven, and I am coming with it to you on the way of longing, and for this I have set you in faith, sons, for I would not have been able to fulfill My coming if I had not put faith in you to believe that I come and fulfill this Scriptures expected by all of the saints, oh, and I want this flower of longing to bring forth many other flowers, which you are to keep it alive within you, for the flower of longing is an eternal flower, as I am, and he who has got it in him, has the way with it up into the eternity full of its flowers with the name of longing, sons.
Oh, two thousand years ago, I had a word of longing in My speaking on the way with the disciples with whom I walked, and I said: «I came to throw fire on earth. I wish it were already kindled». (Luke: 12/49) Sons, sons, the longing is this fire, the longing for God, for heaven, for saints, for the heavenly places, for the mysteries of My kingdom which are still hidden and prepared for those who love the Lord with the longing on earth. Without longing man cannot love and keep the Lord in his heart. If the longing for the Lord does not burn like fire in the one loved by God, oh there will be sufferance and the longing will burn in God and less in man, and My love will be sad if it is not big in man too, in order to guide the man to Me with longing and search, oh, and that is why, sons, I have also said with sighs from time to time: I miss!
Behold, My saints had within them the movement and the work of the longing, and the longing in them met the longing in Me and this mixture worked a miracle in them and with them, oh, and their faith and longing were put to test, and My saints taught all, that living and tests were needed in order to become a Christian, and that you must bear sufferance, slander and humiliation, for otherwise you will not be able to be a Christian, you will not be able to be like Christ, the One persecuted even before His birth, and the way for man to become a Christian has great work, for the more, the greater, and the more beautiful your love for the Lord on earth was, the greater share on My behalf you will have in heaven.
Therefore, work, sons; work the love for the Lord, for it is much to work at it, in order that it may work for you a shining place near Me in the eternal heaven, in the age of eternity. For two thousand years, I came to be among people and the world of people to know Me, to work in them the longing for Me and that they may be with Me on the way, oh, for only man keeps himself aloof from God on earth, and he is stubborn in My relation with him.
Oh, what does man on earth do! Oh, where will you go, man, with your way of living? You are extremely hypocrite, you hide in yourself, you hide from other man, you work with a lie, and you are true neither for yourself nor for your neighbor. However, I am the Truth. You are not, because you do not want to be like God, like His angels, for you are used to lying and to its father all the time, and it works you always because you have got used to serving in this way with your life on earth, for you and for your fellows. Oh, if you do not like to speak on the side of the truth of all things, at least do not speak deceitfully, for the lie is the voice of the devil, and the truth of all this is with God, not with you.
Oh, if the life with God remains forever incomprehensible and unknown even for the people who have it to work, because this life has not been born and because it is without beginning or end with its work, oh, how can you, man, believe that you know to speak according to the truth, when it is not with you? Behold, that is why you have always spoken deceitfully, because he who has no love, he who hates and speaks lies, cannot speak the truth.
Oh, man, learn to begin the life of the love from above, to love those from above and that it may be called that you love, that you have love, because the living, the spiritual love is a senseless creature in the one who loves in heaven, and not on earth, and for this you must love only the truth, not man, for man is not the truth. And in the holy law, set upon the man who loves to live the spiritual life, much watch is needed over senses and feelings, oh, and there were in the people of Israel large cloths, worn over the garment of the body, so that the forms of the body under them may not be seen, the forms by which man fell from heaven, and behold, the evil nature of the flesh must be kept under control and hidden because it easily arouses and is aroused, and if these forms are wrapped, they are protected, and, at the same time, they protect those around. Oh, and in this way the one who loves the spiritual life must start working. Everything that grows and deforms the soul and body must be cut and set aside, like nails, for example, which if man does not cut them off, they grow big, they make ugly and frighten from the spirit of the man, who is careless and unpleasant to those around him.
Oh, man, do not longer go wrong, for after a man goes wrong, he is afraid and becomes naughty and scornful with those around him, who might ask him about the things he has done wrong, for he loses his humility and gains courage to excuse himself, to increase his boldness, with which he covers himself, and here you are: a man with two faces, a hypocrite, a proud and unyielding man, a judge of others, with whom you are also disappointed, as it were, oh, and your pride grows like your nails that grow bigger and bigger, uglier and uglier, if you do not cut them.
Oh, sons, there must be obedience; there must be rules for the spiritual life in man, because without a ruler upon it, no one can be with God. I came down from heaven and I did submit on earth to the governance that was at that time over Israel, and I did not come out of lines to show Myself off, for My caretakers took Me to be circumcised on the eight day after My birth as a man, because I came down to work obedience and through it to be spiritual.
Oh, do the same, Christian sons, if you want to form your spiritual life and that it may be governed. For behold how beautifully the saints worked while they were on earth, and how much and how holy they ruled then upon those who were filled with longing for the heavenly things in them! Oh, because the hierarch Basil was fighting, the saint of the Lord was fighting to free the people from the devils, from the life without God, from bad and sinful habits, for many seek after the Lord in times of trouble, as two thousand years ago, when many flocks of people were looking for Me to heal them from their infirmities. However, I long for the man who comes after Me because of his longing, and such a man do I want to follow Me, for only at the hearing of the confession about Me was the longing for God built in those whom I had chosen to be My disciples then.
The great hierarch Basil has on this day a celebration among the saints, the day of the year when he entered the heavenly dwellings of those who love with longing on earth for them, and he is greeting near Me those in the citadel of My word and he is coming now into My book.
— The longing for You and for those in heaven, burned like fire in my heart, Lord, oh, and how much You long for the people who are consumed with longing for You, Good Savior!
I am only bringing my greeting now to the citadel of Your word and to those who watch over it for Your coming with the saints and I am saying: The Lord wanted and wants to throw fire on earth and more and more people to catch fire, sons from the Lord’s citadel with you. The longing is the fire, and without this fire the Lord is not warm in the man’s heart.
Oh, keep your fire, sons! Give to each other from it to be fire, for without fire it is cold in a house, and the Lord is cold in man, in the house of his heart, and then among brothers.
There comes the feast of the Baptism and we all will be sitting with the Lord at the table of the feast. Oh, make fire, sons! Make those who come to the feast take fire from fire, and let them understand what you are doing here for us and for them, for you are working hard to make them burn for the things from above, those who come at the Lord’s day with you, with the table of word in the feasts. Therefore, the Lord have set you now to prepare a great feast of Epiphany and to open the heavens above and the grace to flow, sons. Be full of longing, be full of courage, be full of word, full of signs and symbols, of shared joy, and be children for these accomplishments, because only the children are the lucky ones, for by obedience they are small and are destined for the heavenly things on earth, and then in heaven, oh, sons.
— I rejoice with My saints at the feasts with you, but do not forget, oh, do not forget the longing, sons, do not forget the great longing in you for Us, and work with it and prepare and set the heavenly feasts here, whenever they arrive to be put on their table and with guests at the table, guests from above and from below, sons.
Now, peace be with you all the time of the preparation of the feast of Epiphany, sons! All things have to be worked and established with guidance, and be receptive to advice and work like the children who listen, sons!
I am going to come with great glory of word upon you and upon the guests who will come here, oh, and over the waters, My sons.
We are smoothing the way of those who will travel to Us here, and who will receive comfort for the longing in them.
Blessed be the whole day of the feast with gathering at the spring of Epiphany!
Praise the Lord in each and every thing, sons! Worship the Lord with the string instruments and organs as well! Make the round dance of joy; clap your hands and sing a new song, as it is written, sons!
Oh, peace to you! This word remains upon you for your mission is hard; it is hard, but My peace helps you, oh, sons! Amen, amen, amen.
