The heaven – the throne , the earth – the footstool , the man deified
« Thus says the Lord , Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool : what kind of a house will you build Me ? And of what kind is to be the place of My rest ?» ( Isaias : 66 / 1 .) * « However , the Most High does not dwell in places made with hands , as the prophet says : ‘ Heaven is My throne , and the earth is a footstool for My feet . What kind of house will you build for Me ?’ says the Lord ; ‘ or what is the place of My rest ?» ( Acts : 7 / 48-49 .) * « Do you not know that your bodies are a sanctuary of God , and that God ’ s Spirit lives in you ?» ( 1 Cor : 3 / 16 .) * « What agreement can there be between God ’ s sanctuary and idols ? For you are a sanctuary of the living God .»

Peace to you , child loved by God ! Peace from heaven and may the glory of your God work through you ! Amen . Peace to you , peace from Us to you and from you to Us ! Amen . Glory to those above and peace upon you , loved children by heaven ! Peace to you , as in heaven so on earth ! The heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool and you , My children , are the temple of the living God . The heart of My children is God ’ s heaven and their body is God ’ s earth , and the Lord is the King of the heaven and earth . And behold , I speak to the loved one :
Peace to you , child loved by heaven ! I turn to you with My word and with My good strength , for I want to always have upon you the good strength and I want you to work in it always , for your work has to remain . But the thing that you have to work comes from heaven and the whole thing that you have to work comes accompanied by the good strength . Work it with those from above and let yourself be attended by those from above and this is what you have to say at the beginning and at the end of your work : “ It is not I , but my Father is working ”. Let this faith adopt you in all your things that you have to work , for by this faith nothing is to remain not worked out in the thing that you receive and know how to do it . Do not forget even for a moment that the ages were founded through the faith in My work , and those that are seen were done by those that are not seen . My tools of old were working those that were not yet seen , and all these died in the faith without living in the time of the promises , but only seeing it from far away ; and the Lord is called their God . These remained an example to the descendants , but look , My child , that they did not receive the perfection , because it is written that for the little ones something better was promised . These have been waiting for you , little ones from this time , My child , and with you they will take the perfection that they worked for .
