Preface
"A wise person listens and takes in more instruction;
A man of understanding acquires skillful direction
To understand a proverb and a puzzling saying,
The words of the wise and their riddles." - Proverbs 1:5,6
This book was inspired on October 30th, 2024, after I read the words from Jeremiah 30:2: “Write in a book all the words that I speak to you.” For those who view the Bible as the Word of God, its guidance, corrections, and admonitions resonate deeply, prompting them to apply its teachings and develop discernment between good and evil. While some may see this connection as self-suggestion, those who experience it come to realize they are, in fact, communicating with divine beings.
For me, this scripture holds special significance. I heard it in a personal way, as part of my relationship with Jehovah God, and I believe it was directed from above. In writing this book, I hope those seeking to draw closer to Jehovah will find encouragement in my personal experiences and insights. Through these reflections, I invite you to explore the wisdom of divine encounters and deepen your own connection with Jehovah.
Those with “ears to hear” seek these deeper truths. I feel a calling and a gift from above that compel me to speak on matters rarely discussed, as Jehovah often keeps certain truths concealed until their appointed time. God’s words to Daniel reveal this, as recorded in Daniel 12:4: “But you, Daniel, keep these words secret and seal up the book until the time of the end. Many will search it thoroughly, and knowledge will become abundant.”
In Jesus’ time, similar guidance was given. Speaking to his apostles in 33 CE, he said, “I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now. But when the Helper—the spirit of truth—comes, he will guide you into all truth” (John 16:12-13). And in Acts 1:7, he stated, “You do not need to know the times and dates that the Father has set by His own authority.”
The apostle Paul, too, encountered knowledge he could not fully share. Around 55 CE, he recorded an event that happened to him earlier, saying, “Yes, I know such a man—whether in the body or apart from the body, I do not know; God knows—who was caught up into paradise and heard inexpressible words that a man is not permitted to speak” (2 Corinthians 12:3-4).
From these scriptures, it is clear that Jehovah intentionally kept certain matters hidden until the last days of this system, after which a new order—a “new heavens and a new earth”—will come. This new society, united under the Heavenly Kingdom, is often called the “New World” or the Kingdom of God (2 Peter 3:3-7, 11-13). Yet, as foretold by Daniel and Jesus, in these last days, the spirit of truth will guide us toward a full understanding of divine truth
I believe that my personal response to this call is yet another indication that the time has arrived to reveal such truths. If this is indeed the case, this book will find recognition; if not, it will still serve as a record of my personal study and may perhaps inspire someone for the good. For some, I may be a voice for Jehovah’s purpose; for others, I may be dismissed, just as Jesus was. As recorded in John 8:48-50: ‘In answer the Jews said to him: “Are we not right in saying, ‘You are a Samaritan and have a demon’?” Jesus answered: “I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me. But I am not seeking glory for myself; there is One who is seeking and judging.”
This is part of reality—humans are under powerful influences from above, and it’s essential for each person to discern how to separate themselves from demonic contamination and discover the true revelation of the sons of God. The reasonings in this book have helped me identify these sources, and my personal journey toward these conclusions may help others analyze their own paths in drawing closer to the Almighty and His chosen ones. This is why I took the admonition to 'write it in a book' as an exhortation from above. Jesus stated clearly: 'No, rather, happy are those hearing the word of God and keeping it!'"
​
The ability to hear God’s word is, in itself, a sign of spiritual growth and a blessing from our Heavenly Father. Jesus said to Peter: ‘Happy are you, Peter, because it was not flesh and blood that revealed this to you, but my Father who is in the heavens.’ Jesus repeatedly emphasized, ‘Let the one who has ears hear,’ ‘Pay attention to how you listen,’ and ‘To the one who has, more will be given.’ At the same time, He noted that many ‘have ears but do not hear,’ and ‘do not apply their heart to what they hear.’ Those who turn their heart to reading, listening, and understanding the meaning recorded in the Bible open their heart and mind to hear what God says. And then it is up to Him to reveal the truth to that person.
​
Proverbs 25:2 states, “God is glorified by keeping matters secret, but kings are glorified by investigating them.” And in Psalm 25:14, we read, “Jehovah’s close friends are those who deeply respect him; to them, he reveals his covenant.”
To whom does God reveal His covenant? To those who deeply respect Him. But can one truly respect Him without honoring His personal name, Jehovah? I believe He reveals His Word and its meaning, but not the covenants themselves. I will explain why I think so in later chapters. Before that, I need to share some personal stories with you—for instance, the story of my grandmother and my own journey. These will be covered in the next chapters: Temporary Things and The Change.
I remember from my childhood and youth, when my homeland was steeped in atheistic and materialistic views, that my God-fearing grandmother would place a black ribbon known as “The Living Help” in the bed, wardrobe, and clothing. This ribbon bore the words of Psalm 91, where verse 14 states, “Because he has affection for me, I will rescue him. I will protect him because he has come to know my name.”
At that time, in Russian—as in many other languages—Jehovah’s name had been replaced with “God” and “Lord” throughout the Bible, including this psalm. Most people don’t see any difference in this, but in my deep conviction, the difference is significant. It was this conviction that led me to perceive the words “Write in a book all the words that I speak to you” as a calling from above. However, it was not just a call “from above” but specifically from the one whose name is Jehovah.
​
I would never have come to this way of thinking if not for one pivotal event in my life—the first time I prayed using just one word: “Jehovah.” In that moment, I was enlightened about what I needed to do with my life. I will share this story with you, dear reader. Those who have heard the spoken version of this story have expressed gratitude for learning who Jehovah is and have felt motivated to call upon His name.
