A person who does not pray as much as they should and who does not pray in the way I, the Holy Son, want cannot come to Heaven even though they are allowed to come to Heaven. The less a person prays, the more likely their spirit will go to Paradise or the Good Spiritual World, and the spirits of those who do not pray at all or who fail to pray properly go to the Hell of death.
Prayer is like the act of love. Know that if you do not pray, you cannot live with God and Me, the Holy Son. Prayer is love between you and I, the Holy Son. Let’s communicate with each other while you offer truly deep prayers for yourself and for those whom you should pray for. Communicating through prayer is like making love with the one you love. Prayer enables you to have a give-and-take relationship with God and Me, the Holy Son.
You do not know what God does because you are human beings. Only the Holy Trinity, the Almighty, knows all things. Human beings are unknowing. You were surely supposed to die, but My Father, the Holy Spirit, and I, the Holy Son, saved you. So you are alive, but since you are living and did not die, you do not really feel or know the wonders that took place. If things happened in such a way that all the others who were in the same place as you died but you alone survived then upon seeing the dead bodies, you would feel the power of prayer piercingly, saying, “Ah! I alone survived because I prayed!”
Pray for yourself, for your family, for your nation and for the world. If you pray and God has a change of heart because of your prayer and if God allows you to escape the imminent woes or stops a war, a famine, or various other disasters, it is recorded in Heaven and Paradise that those various woes were prevented through your prayer. If someone prays at a certain time and, as a result, God brings judgment, all of the records of the disasters on the Earth are also kept in Heaven and Paradise for everyone’s viewing.
Those who lived in Sodom neither prayed nor repented, so they were destroyed. Not only Sodom, but all its neighboring cities—Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim—were also destroyed. It was not that only a part of the cities were destroyed but the entire cities were destroyed while only Lot and his daughters, who believed in God well and prayed, escaped the judgment and lived. In Nineveh, Jonah set the condition of prayer and each of the citizens also repented and prayed.
So God turned His heart of judgment, and all of them lived. At the time of King Hezekiah also, Hezekiah earnestly prayed to God about the fate of his nation when a great army of the neighboring nation, Assyria, swarmed in to annihilate Israel. God heard his prayer, stood on the side of the righteous, and protected Israel while destroying the Assyrian army without leaving a single person. Joshua, King David, and the judges always prayed before going out to fight as well. Their enemies also fought while praying, but God sided with the central figures, stood on the side of the good, who were His chosen ones, and fought for them. Therefore, in the end, it was always the righteous that triumphed.
Prayer is better than swords, spears or any new weapons. Prayer is a weapon that is more powerful than the atomic bomb. You also were supposed to die in faith, but because you prayed, you have survived and come this far. It is the same for the past, the present, and the future also. You must pray.
Do you know how urgently prayer is needed in this time period? Prayer is necessary and important in this way: [a farmer] who quickly gathers the crops that needed to be dried in the sunlight for several days in the courtyard of their countryside home, puts them in sacks and brings them into the house, because he sees that thick, dark clouds have suddenly covered the sky and rain has begun to fall, drop by drop.
A person who prays will not end up on a rough path, and every time they pray, the line of life that was as thin as a piece of thread becomes as thick as an iron rope. Therefore, they can safely climb even a rocky cliff. Those who do not pray have a treacherous path before them and their line of life is as thin as a piece of thread. Also, one who prays is like a person who lives each day conversing with Me, the Holy Son, through a smartphone, saying everything they want to say.
Pray, and through prayer, keep My, the Holy Son’, heart, which rests on you, from going elsewhere. Pray, and through prayer, grab My Father’s heart before He makes decisions according to what the world has done and before God carries those decisions out. Before the Holy Trinity makes up Their mind and destroys them after looking at the deeds of individuals, families, nations and the generation, quickly pray and turn God’s heart. My Father God makes up His mind and takes action looking at the entire world. Unless you offer certain conditional prayers, God will not turn His heart. Therefore, by understanding His heart and by giving Him hope, take a hold of His heart through earnest petition and prayer.
Those who do not pray will stop walking the path of life, just like a person who, while walking on a road, suddenly becomes unable to see in front of them and since they cannot continue their journey, they stop. By praying, achieve the transformation of both the body and the spirit. By praying, evangelize lives, manage yourself, manage your brothers, and manage your family, nation, the world.
I am the Holy Son who has taught you how valuable prayer is and who has urgently taught you that now, the present time, is a time when you must pray. Shalom!
