About fasting and almsgiving
of this work and under its name , oh , these do harm to Me , they put to shame My coming , My walking , teaching and My entire little flock , and this is how they strike God , and in no way do they follow Him , for when they have nothing to charge the Lord and His saints with , the world and its rulers put on their forehead the ugliest sin , the sin of immorality , of those who have lied to God and who are the sons of the devil .
… Oh , God ’ s sons are the sons of obedience and by obedience you have blessings from above , oh , sons , and this is how you are to distinguish the sons of God from the sons of men , as I do . And as for you , fight and work , for you need to have much work in your life on earth and it has to go to heaven with the possessions you have earned , and he who does not gather is the one who wastes , oh , sons .
Now I am blessing and putting upon you holy power and will , and much love as well , for the remaining half of the Lent and for your love for this accomplishment . Everything from Me , all are to be with blessing , and not otherwise , sons . Oh , be careful to live and work with this protection and holy obedience : the blessing , sons . It is only for the sons , not for the strangers , not for those who depart from it for their will ’ s sake .

Peace among you ! Peace to you , sons ! Amen , amen , amen . Excerpt from the Word of God on the third Sunday of the Lent , of the Holy Cross , from
My dwelling among you brings Me comfort , sons . It is a day of memorial for My great words and with much teaching in them for the making of the new man , and I have to work by the work of My word upon you .
The flock of Christians is preparing for the seven week fasting before the crucifixion and for My resurrection , and then , on this day , it is said in the churches that the time of the Lent is coming near . However , I have prepared you and I have set you to eat all the time only what I said at the beginning of the creation and at the creation of man 33 , oh , and to be happy for this ordinance of Mine upon you , for faith and obedience to God are more than the food for the body , because the spirit is that which gives life , not the body , as it is written .
Sons , sons , I am spending a little bit of time with you , as you are able to do , for I measure well all things for Me and for you and for those who eat of My mouth through the spring of My word . The Christians of this people are preparing themselves for the fast without oil , but for the

« God also said , ' Look , to you I give all the seed-bearing plants everywhere on the surface of the earth , and all the trees with seed-bearing fruit ; this will be your food ». ( Gen : 1 / 29 .)
