2008.05.11. Oh, I leave over the entire nature My beneficial order against everything that is the en- emy of the nature and life, and the nature has a holy law set by Me and it submits to it, for if the tree is sick inside then I meant a healing doctor for it to search its life and I have among the birds of the sky a bird that heals the inner sickness of the tree. It comes and searches the tree over and where it sees that the bark is sick it pecks at it with its beak and gets under the bark where the worm is and, getting in, it finds the worm and takes it out from the tree and this is how the Lord takes care of the trees, and some other doctors from the birds of the sky come and pick the cutworms that damage the fruit and this is how the Lord cleans the trees from their enemies, and in the same manner He also cleanses and takes care of the people who want or do not want to be taken care of. Oh, if the people did not put to the trees and grass so much chemicals made by people and which spoil their nature, then I, the Lord, would sent My doctors, just as I was sending them to the saints who were overrun by enemy plagues, by lice and evil flies, and I was sending some other living beings to cleanse the evil from upon man, and I was saving the saints from afflictions, and the saints humbled themselves by prayers and were not proud in their mind, but they rather glorified My care for their lives. However, when I Myself came to save the man from the enemies of his life, from the sin, which ate the man’s inner life, oh, the people did not welcome Me to do them good, as they also did not receive those sent by Me to clean them from their iniquities, by which they draw punishment upon themselves for their deed. Oh, the people do not know how to understand the help from the Lord upon them, the mysterious work and full of mercy for man, and if the man receives from the Lord, when the Lord gives to him, the man becomes haughty and then he forgets the One Who does him good from heaven by His servants on the earth. There was once in David’s Judea a son of king who, taking over the throne of his father, did what was pleasant in the eyes of the Lord, advising those in Judea to seek to fulfill the law and God’s commandments, removing the foreign gods from the country and building cities and wall reinforcements all around them, and the Lord gave him rest in the country and all around it. And in one day, seeing an enemy army with weapons and many chariots marching against him, he came out to meet it and set the battle in array and then he cried to the Lord saying: «Only You, Lord, can help the one who has no strength against the mighty one. We rely on You and in Your great name we defend our hearth, and the man cannot stand against You». (2 Chron. 14:11) Then the Lord struck the enemy army and this fled, and the king of Judea pursued them to their cities, for the fear of the Lord came upon them and this is how the one who relied on the Lord prevailed against his enemy. Then the Spirit of the Lord came down and met the king of Judea and said to him and to those from Judea: «He is with you, while you are with Him; and if you seek Him, He will be found of you; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you. Now for a long season Israel was without the true God, without a teaching priest, and without law: but when in their distress they turned to the Lord and sought Him, He was found of them. In those times there was no peace to him who went out, nor to him who came in; but great vexations were on all inhabitants of the lands. They were broken in pieces, nation against nation, and city against city; for God did vex them with all adversity. But you be strong, and do not let your hands be slack; for your work shall be rewarded». (2 Chron. 15:1-7) Then the king heard these words from the Lord and the prophecy of the seer and he gathered all the people and brought thanks to the Lord from all their hearts, and he who did not work that way had to die. This is how this king kept peace in his country, but when his hope in God was tested, being again under pressure from the kings, the king sought his own council and went wrong because he relied on people. And then the seer of God came to him and spoke to him: «Because you have relied on the kings and have not relied on the Lord as you did once, 6
