Our Lady of Prompt Succor

Definition of Succor:
(noun) – assistance and support in times of hardship and distress;
(verb) – give assistance or aid to

My dear son,

I come to you today as your Lady of Prompt Succor.  As you now know, I intentionally interrupted your sleep during the night and addressed to you my desire to be celebrated in these times as Our Lady of Prompt Succor. I knew you were troubled about a pressing matter, and by daylight the miracle you requested was given. However, you must not assume that I will always respond to your requests, and for the reason that what you may want, may not be what God wants!

I know that you will now reveal to your brothers and sisters here in America, as well as around the world, that they must come to me with their troubles and in search of relief, or even miracles perhaps, because in these end times, it will take many miracles to turn the tide of darkness and evil from the prince of darkness into a groundswell of goodness and light through Me, as Your Lady of Succor, for I respond to you in fulfillment of the Father in Heaven’s plans for all of you.

Keep in mind, my children, that the Father in Heaven has great love for each and every one of you, and he has tasked me with the great responsibility of saving many souls. In these times of darkness, there are so many of you, who are headed into darkness in the eternal abyss that the Father in Heaven is directly intervening now through His Son, Your Lord and Saviour, and my Son, The Redeemer of the world, Jesus Christ, as well as through your Heavenly Mother.

In prayer, I want you to call out to me for relief from your earthly problems, and even for the impossible, as it may seem, which would require miracles for your request to be heard. I have a deep and longing love for you, the people of America, and historically, you can recognize in many historic events that it was through my intercession that many miracles have taken place in America through prayers directly to me with specific requests made by your brothers and sisters many, many years ago.

Today in America, your country is in a lot of trouble and turmoil. This is understandable and recognized by many of you that the troubles that America is experiencing are because of all the sin in America, as well as in the whole world.  Now is the time for you to turn your focus and attention to me as Your Lady of Prompt Succor to address not only your troubles, but the troubles of America, as well as the whole world.

I have addressed and resolved many of the world’s problems in the past, because many of your ancestors, as well as your living brothers and sisters recognized the power and effectiveness of praying for my intercession in many areas, including famine, disease, pestilence, wars, terrorism, materialism and greed, and the sins of the flesh, including the sinfulness and soullessness that leads to the darkness of addiction of all kinds, particularly of alcohol and drugs that have become the scourge of the modern world, and that are frankly contributing to bringing your nation to its knees.

Now is the time to turn to me with your prayer requests, as Your Lady of Prompt Succor. I promise that I will listen to and answer your prayers with the help of God, as it is his plan that will prevail in the end.

So be it!

Thanks be to God!

Our Lady of Prompt Succor

PRAYER:
Traditional Nine Day Novena

“Our Lady of Prompt Succor, thou are after Jesus our only hope. O Most Holy Virgin, whose merits have raised thee high above angel choirs to the very throne of the Eternal and whose foot crushed the head of the infernal serpent, thou art strong against the enemies of our salvation. O Mother of God, thou art our Mediatrix most kind and loving. Hasten, then, to our help, and as thou didst once save thy beloved City from ravaging flames and our Country from an alien foe, do now have pity on our misery, and obtain for us the graces we beg of thee. Deliver us from the wiles of Satan, assist us in the many trials which beset our path in this valley of tears, and be to us truly Our Lady of Prompt Succor now and especially at the hour of our death. Amen.”

“Our Lady of Prompt Succor, hasten to help us.” (Three times.)

The Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory be to the Father may be added, with the Litany of Our Lady of Prompt Succor [above] and the prayer “O Mary, Mother of God”.

“O Mary, Mother of God, who amid the tribulations of the world, watches over us and over the Church of thy Son, be to us and to the Church, truly, Our Lady of Prompt Succor; make haste to help us in all our necessities, that in this fleeting life thou may be our succor, and obtain for us [mention your request here] Help us to gain life everlasting through the merits of Jesus, thy Son, Our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.”

“Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.”

(Traditional Version): “Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of death. Amen.”

(Flame of Love version): “Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, spread the effect of grace of Thy Flame of Love over all of humanity, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.”

“Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.”

August 12, 2002

Mary of Agreda comes and sits next to me. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“My sister, I have come to share with you certain things about the Blessed Virgin Mary–specifically, Her life of virtue, and how She most perfectly lived certain virtues.”

“First, I invite you to understand that on the surface, She was much like you and I–unassuming, always happy to be in the background, ready to take on the lowliest task. The difference is She did everything to perfection. She perfectly fulfilled God’s Divine Will because She wasn’t a fallen creature.”

“You (and me when I was alive) have trouble sometimes knowing God’s Will. But Mary always made the perfect choices. She was childlike in simplicity, humble in Her bearing, trusting in Her nature. Though She was often overlooked for certain ‘important’ tasks, She was satisfied and accepting of this. The love She had for creatures was always based on Her profound love of God. She saw everything and everyone as God’s creation.”

“I will be coming to you now to describe Our Mother’s life in certain virtues; I will come quietly and lovingly.”

August 15, 2002

Mary of Agreda comes. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

I throw holy water on her. She smiles and vision brightens.

“I have come to speak to you about Mary’s Glorious Assumption. Our Lady chose to undergo death although Her Son did not ask it of Her. As Her immaculate soul took leave of Her body, a bright light shone around the little house where She had been living. Many angels escorted Her soul into Heaven. Many more angels returned some time later with the sacred mission of escorting Her body to Heaven.”

“As they moved through the heavens with Her pure and virginal body which lay resting in their arms, the firmaments parted. The Gates of Heaven opened. The spirit of St. Joseph called the angels through the Gates, and there in the presence of the Holy Trinity and all the Heavenly Court, Mary’s body and soul were reunited.”

“All of the angels fell prostrate in front of the Holy Trinity, and Mary, our Heavenly Mother, was seated on a throne in their midst. Her song of praise rose above all the rest–and to this day, still does.”

August 16, 2002

Mary of Agreda comes. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come to begin my discourse with you concerning the virtuous life of Mary, Queen of Heaven and earth.”

“Because Our Lady was immaculately conceived, She was not of a fallen nature. Every virtue was perfect in Her and each one based on Holy Love which was Her very Heart.”

“Through the deepest virtue of humility ever known to one of God’s creatures, Mary always accepted God’s Divine Will. This is made apparent in Her words to the Archangel Gabriel at the Annunciation: ‘Be it done unto Me according to Thy Word’. Though She sorrowed many times, it was a sorrow that did not proceed from self-love. She sorrowed at the sight of sin in the world and at the sight of Her Son’s suffering. She always preferred to be a loving support in the background.”

“If the women in Her company began to gossip, Our Lady always found good to say about the person in question. She, in perfect humility, never argued to defend Her opinion, and never gave the least thought to others’ opinions of Her. This is because She was humble in thought, word and deed.”

“The world today should be consoled at the thought of such a loving, humble Mother up in Heaven.”

August 16, 2002

Mary of Agreda comes. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“Dear little sister, it would be a mistake to compare what I revealed to you last night with what I had written when I was in the world. To do so would be to say one is right, the other wrong. Prophecy is never perfect. And so…accept what I have come to offer. For who is to say, perhaps you are a better recorder of facts than I was. Be humble enough to just pass on to the world what I reveal to you.”

August 22, 2002

“I am Mary of Agreda.”

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come to describe to you the Coronation of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth.”

“Our Lady was invited upon Her arrival in Heaven–Body and Soul–to be seated upon a magnificent Throne. She accepted only as She knew it pleased Her Beloved Son. Immediately, myriads of angels fell prostrate at Her Feet. The Most Blessed Holy Trinity placed themselves behind Her, though They were elevated a little higher than Mary. Mary was given this honor because the Love in Her Heart was always Holy and Perfect–She being immaculately conceived.”

“She obeyed the Father as an obedient daughter. She cared for Her Son as only a loving Mother could. She was the humble, willing spouse of the Most Holy Spirit. Now and always, a bright Heavenly Light forms a Crown over Mary’s Head. The Crown is the reward given to Mary as Mediatrix, Co-Redemptrix and Advocate.”

August 26, 2002

“I am Mary of Agreda.”

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come that you might know the perfect composite of virtue that abides in the Immaculate Heart of Mary.”

“Her Heart is perfect Holy Love. Since Her Love is perfect, every virtue is perfect. Since Our Lady’s Heart is perfect in all virtue, She exemplifies the perfect balance between Holy Love and Holy Humility.”

“The Holy Mother knew well Her humble place before Her Creator. She never presumed to be more than She was before the Eyes of God. In this, Mary’s Heart was the simple reflection of truth.”

“The Holy Mother gave Glory to God in everything–even the Cross itself.”

September 30, 2002

Mary of Agreda comes. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“My sister, take this down.”

“I am here to speak to you about the virtue of patience in the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Our Lady, who was perfect in every virtue, never allowed time to become Her enemy. In this way She never thought about the past in a negative context–nor did She worry over the future. This allowed Her to patiently live out the present moment in patience and humility. She did not consider how many times She performed a simple task in the past or how long She would need to wait for something in the future. She did not fault others for their sins–thus showing impatience with them. Instead, She prayed for them.”

“When She saw Her Son suffer She did not have a bitter Heart, but was patient with God’s Will for Her and Jesus in the present moment. She endured patiently every separation from Jesus–even His Ascent into Heaven.”

“Humility and love were the basis of Her patience, and they shone through Her like sun shines through crystal.”

“Imitate Her.”

Our Lady of Medjugorje

http://www.medjugorje.com

August 26, 2016

Ivan says:

As every day, after the meeting together with Our Lady, I would like to also bring closer to you and describe what is the most important from tonight’s meeting. Also today Our Lady came to us joyful and happy, and at the beginning She greeted all of us with Her motherly greeting, ‘Praised be Jesus my dear children.’ Then She extended Her arms and She prayed especially over all of us present here, and especially She prayed over you, the sick who are present here. Then Our Lady said:

“Dear children, also today, in a special way, I desire to call you to live my messages. Dear children, do not speak about my messages, but live my messages. Also you be my living sign, a sign of my presence here and irradiate others with your presence. Pray, dear children, through this time, more. Pray together with me and for my intentions. Follow me, dear children. Live my messages. Do not be afraid. I am with you and I intercede for all of you before my Son. Thank you, dear children, also today, for having responded to my call.”

Then Our Lady blessed all of us with Her motherly blessing, and She also blessed everything you brought to be blessed. I recommended also all of you, all of your needs, your intentions, and your families, and in a special way, sick. Then Our Lady continued to pray for awhile over all of us here and She left in that prayer, in an illuminated Sign of the Cross, with a greeting, “Go in peace my dear children.”

Mary – Our Lady of Garabandal – the Story, the Messages, the Prophecies (The Warning, Great Miracle and Chastisement), with Videos (Supernatural Evidence)

Our Lady of Garabandal 2

Our Lady of Garabandal – Historical Background – 1960s

  • Pope John XXIII is elected and three months later announces on January 25, 1959 to convene a general ecumenical Council of the Catholic Church. It will address relations between the Catholic Church and the modern world.
  • Pope John XXIII chooses not to reveal the Third Secret of Fatima (Portugal) during the Year 1960 as requested by Our Lady in 1917.
  • On June 18, 1961, St. Michael the Archangel begins appearing to four girls in a remote, poor village of Garabandal in the mountains of Spain. He announces the coming of the Blessed Virgin Mary as Our Lady of Mount Carmel.
  • On July 2, 1961, the Blessed Virgin Mary starts appearing, almost daily, to the four girls.
  • On October 18, 1961, a first public Message is given by the Blessed Virgin Mary. It emphasizes the importance of the Blessed Sacrament (Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist) and living holy lives. If the world does not change, a very great Chastisement will come. “The cup is already filling up.”
  • Through these apparitions, the Blessed Virgin Mary prophesies The Great Warning for the world and a Great Miracle at Garabandal which will take place within a year of The Warning.  A permanent, indestructible, supernatural Sign will be placed at the Pines in Garabandal.
  • In 1962, one year after the apparitions began, at the time of the feast of Corpus Christi (June 21), the girls have visions of the future Warning and Chastisement. They begin screaming fearfully during the Nights of the Screams.
  • Announced 15 days in advance, on July 19, 1962, the Miracle of the Visible Host (Mystical Holy Communion) takes place to one of the girls (Conchita).
  • Pope John XXIII opens the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II) on October 11, 1962.
  • By the end of January 1963, the visions end for three of the girls and Conchita continues to have fewer, less frequent visions.
  • Pope John XXIII dies on June 3, 1963 and Vatican II is suspended.
  • Pope Paul VI is elected on June 21, 1963 and announces Vatican II will continue.
  • On January 1, 1965, the Blessed Virgin Mary tells Conchita that since the world did not acknowledge the first Message, a second Message (final one) would be delivered by St. Michael on June 18, 1965.
  • The second Message says, in part, “Before, the cup was filling up. Now it is flowing over.” It states that “Many cardinals, many bishops and many priests are on the road to perdition (hell) and are taking many souls with them.” The Message stresses the importance of the Holy Eucharist and seeking forgiveness for sins. The Message asks for more prayer, sacrifices and reflection upon the Passion of Jesus.
  • On November 13, 1965, Conchita has her last apparition with the Blessed Virgin Mary.
  • On November 14, 1965, Conchita is interviewed for a German book (“Garabandal – Der Zeigefinger Gottes”) and she reveals what the Blessed Mother said about abortion, which as a girl, she did not understand.
    (Page 203): “She [Conchita] spoke quite openly about the developments by which men in the near future would rebel against God. On the day after Our Lady’s last appearance at Garabandal, Conchita asked the author, “Can you imagine how somebody could kill children in the womb without thereby killing the mother?” The author spontaneously answered, “No! What gave you that idea, Conchita?”
    “Well, the Blessed Mother spoke about this and she let me know that this will happen with the overflowing of the chalice.” [In her second Message of June 18,1965, the Virgin said, “Before, the cup was filling up. Now it is flowing over.”]”
  • Pope Paul VI concludes Vatican II on December 8, 1965.

The Blessed Virgin Mary appeared as Our Lady of Mount Carmel

Two Messages were given for the world by Our Lady at Garabandal, Spain where she appeared over a period of four years (1961-1965).

October 18, 1961

“We must make many sacrifices, perform much penance, and visit the Blessed Sacrament frequently. But first, we must lead good lives. If we do not, a chastisement will befall us. The cup is already filling up, and if we do not change, a very great chastisement will come upon us.”

June 18, 1965

“As my message of October 18 has not been complied with and has not been made known to the world, I am advising you that this is the last one. Before, the cup was filling up.  Now it is flowing over. Many cardinals, many bishops and many priests are on the road to perdition and are taking many souls with them. Less and less importance is being given the Eucharist. You should turn the wrath of God away from yourselves by your efforts. If you ask His forgiveness with sincere hearts, He will pardon you. I, your mother, through the intercession of Saint Michael the Archangel, ask you to amend your lives. You are now receiving the last warnings. I love you very much and do not want your condemnation. Pray to us with sincerity and we will grant your requests. You should make more sacrifices. Think about the passion of Jesus.”

Feast of Our Lady of Knock – Holy Love Messages

Holy Love Ministry
http://www.holylove.org

August 21, 2016
Feast of Our Lady of Knock

Mary, Refuge of Holy Love says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“I am happy to be here* today on the day which commemorates My Apparition at Knock. That apparition lasted a short time on one day. This apparition is ongoing, as a means of supporting and protecting the Remnant Faithful during this crisis of faith which perpetuates. If you do not have a strong faith, My children, you are vulnerable to any attack and the veil of deceit Satan has placed over the heart of the world. You do not see the subtle ways the enemy uses modern-day technology, political issues and even well-intended efforts to weave his confusion into hearts.”

“Even those once consecrated to My Immaculate Heart have now failed Me. I find My solace in the Remnant whose faith is not shaken by the state of the heart of the world. I am calling you to understand these times in which you live. Build up your prayer lives as armor against Satan’s subtleties. Every weakness is a portal for his entry.”

“The hour is now at hand when many will have to choose liberal versus conservative. This is why it is so important that you identify evil as opposed to good. Evil does not respect religious borders or vocations. Evil does not stop or back away from any prestigious title. In fact, these are all incentives for the enemy to redouble his efforts. Therefore, pray for all Church hierarchy, priests and all vocations.”

“I am praying with you.”

* The apparition site of Maranatha Spring and Shrine.

Read 2 Corinthians 4:1-5+

Synopsis – In discharging the Mission and Ministry of Holy Love do not lose heart. On the contrary, renounce actions which shame conceals in the dark, avoid unscrupulous conduct and do not corrupt the Word of God; but make known the Truth of Jesus Christ, which is Holy Love, commending yourself to your examination of conscience according to the Ten Commandments in the sight of God. If the Truth is concealed, it is only to those who are perishing; for in their case they have been blinded to Truth by their unbelieving hearts and minds – not seeing the Light of the Gospel of Christ Who is the Truth and the Image of God.

Therefore, having this ministry by the mercy of God, we do not lose heart. We have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways; we refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God’s Word, but by the open statement of the Truth we would commend ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing. In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the Light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the likeness of God. For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.

Feast of Our Lady of Knock

Our Lady, Mary, Refuge of Holy Love, comes in white. She is holding the Rosary of the States (50 Hail Mary beads in the shape of the 50 states of the United States). She smiles and says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“On October 7th, I will return to My much beloved Field* to celebrate the Feast of the Holy Rosary. Present to Me the gift of your hearts wrapped in the many rosaries you have been praying for this country. These are desperate times. Many do not realize the grave urgency of prayer for this nation. The outcome of the upcoming presidential election will have worldwide influence. Souls are at stake. Lives are at stake.”

“Dear children, you are engaged in war – spiritual and physical war. Your weapon is this.” She holds up the rosary of the states. Then it changes into the rosary of the unborn. “Pray for an end to abortion which is Satan’s weapon of mass destruction.”

* Field of the United Hearts.

A short commentary
By a soul

(8/17/16 – Eve of the Feast of the Coronation of Our Lady)

I am writing this short commentary for the many people who visit this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove.  While many of them are Catholic, I know there are many Christians of other denominations as well, and also, perhaps, people of other faiths or no faith at all.

I am writing this commentary for all of them.

I want to introduce you to Our Lady, Queen of Heaven and Earth, the Blessed Virgin Mary.  She is the Mother of Our Lord, Jesus Christ, and Your Mother, too, although, you might not be certain of that fact yet.  I want to tell you that it is okay to ask the Blessed Mother to intercede for you and for others in prayer.  You do not have to be Catholic or an Orthodox Christian to turn to Our Lady and to ask Her for certain favors.  She loves you just as She loves Her own Child, Jesus.  Our Lady was entrusted by Jesus to all of us at the foot of The Cross before Jesus died.  She was given to us to be the Mother of All and She desires that you know that in your heart.

Mary loves you very much and She wants you to know that honestly and truly.  If you simply say, “Mary, help me to know Jesus better and love God more,” She will answer that prayer in a profound way for you.  She desires that very much for you and if you have certain needs, She will listen to them and respond to them as best as She could as Your Mother.

Mary will obtain the “best grace” possible for you and your particular need.  It may not be exactly what you want, but it will be the best grace that God desires to give to you.

Mary will provide for you, as any loving mother would.

There are many theological arguments on the internet about why or why not praying to Mary is a good thing.  Many of them are arguments based in Holy Scripture, which may or may not be correct interpretations, but they are written by people with good intentions, who simply want to honor God as best they can.

If you would like to read a theological argument, then by all means, search for an appropriate article to read.  But, what I am writing is not a theological argument…  Rather, it is a writing based on the heart and what the heart feels is right—Love.

This is a commentary of Truth in Love.  Not made of fancy words and articulated viewpoints.  Rather, it is a writing that appeals to your heart and what you know, instinctively, as a child of God.

Mary is Your Mother.  She loves you.

From the very beginning of Christianity, the Blessed Mother has been honored by the faithful.  You may not know this fact, but the early Christians loved and honored the Blessed Mother very much.  During the first 300 years of Christianity, the early Christians hid in the Catacombs—the tunnels underneath Rome, Italy—to protect themselves from on-going persecution by the Roman empire.  In the Catacombs, the early Christians would hold Mass (prayer services) to God and would bury the deceased Christians in marked tombs.

Do you know what these early Christians would mark on the tombs?  There are tunnels of tombs marked with many prayers to Mary and the Saints in Heaven.

The early Christians believed in the powerful intercession of Mary and also, the martyrs of the faith, because they knew that they were close to God’s favor in Heaven.  And so, they marked the tombs with intercessory prayers, because they also believed in the existence of Purgatory, which some faithful may have to go to, to be fully purified from sin before finally going to Heaven.

This was the real beauty and true fullness of the meaning of the Communion of Saints—the family of God.  One Body in Christ, One shared and Mutual Love no matter the distance between earth and Heaven.

Just as a Christian today might ask another faithful to pray for them on earth, the Oneness in Christ meant that the early Christians felt immediate closeness and oneness to those already saved in Heaven.  Asking Mary or a Saint to pray for you and intercede for you is no different from asking someone on earth.  And guess what?  It has the extra bonus grace of faith attached to it, so God looks with great favor on those who trust in Him through demonstrating their deep faith in intercessory prayer in Heaven.  Faith moves mountains.

Some people might say that praying to Mary and the Saints is idol worship and prohibited by Holy Scripture.  But, these same people might not know that the Ten Commandments are interpreted differently by Protestant Christians and Catholic/Orthodox Christians.  In fact, the Ten Commandments were changed by the Protestant Christians during the Reformation, so it could be justified the ransacking of Catholic Churches and overturning of statues, dismantling of Crucifixes, and destroying of relics of the Saints.

I do not want to go into theological debates here, but simply research the differences between the Ten Commandments in the Protestant Churches and the Catholic/Orthodox Church.  You will see they are written differently and it is up to you to discern the better argument—

Meanwhile, I continue to appeal to the heart.

Many Christians are proud of being “Bible-only” believers.  I applaud them for their fidelity to seeking Truth in Holy Scripture.  Truly, I am impressed by those who know by heart many verses of Holy Scripture.

I wish that I had that good of a memory and could be that learnt in the Holy Bible.  But, alas, I am not graced with those talents.  I have accepted that fact sadly.

Yet, I ask the “Bible-only” believers, how do you teach a person who cannot read?  Is Christianity really a faith limited to those who can read?  Or, is there something more to it?

Love is shown much more than through words.  Love is shown through acts of love.

Statues, murals of art, paintings, stained glass, prayer cards, and other works such as music that glorify God are acts of love that teach others the traditions, stories and mysteries of the Christian faith.  These acts of love are what has sustained the Christian faith for the past 2000 years during which most Christians could not read.  This is a simple historical fact.

Some of these works of art—acts of love—honor the Blessed Mother and the Saints.  I simply say, as Christians, we must not be afraid to love.

A Saint, Maximilian Kolbe, once said:

“Never be afraid of loving the Blessed Virgin too much. You can never love her more than Jesus did.”

In the Ten Commandments that are shared between Protestant Christians and Catholic/Orthodox Christians is the Commandment of “Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother.”  We also know that Our Lord, Jesus Christ, fulfilled perfectly all the Commandments of God, no doubt loving His Mother all the more than we ever could.

If Jesus opened His Sacred Heart to His Mother and we are called to imitate Him in all ways, how can we not also open our own hearts to Her as well?  To honor Mary, is to honor Jesus.  To love Mary, is to love Jesus and the way He calls us to love.

On this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, I want to tell you of three resources that have been created especially for you.  These webpages are called:

“Invitation To Become A Child Of Mary”
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/invitation-to-become-a-child-of-mary/

“Our Lady Speaks To Those Who Never Heard The Gospel”
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/the-warning-god-speaks-to-you/our-lady-speaks-to-those-who-never-heard-the-gospel/

“Our Lady Speaks To Those Who Have Little Love In Their Life”
https://maryrefugeofholylove.com/the-warning-god-speaks-to-you/our-lady-speaks-to-those-who-have-little-love-in-their-life/

These three webpages were created so that you could learn more about Our Lady and the message of the Gospel (which means, “Good News”).  I hope you were take the time to read the heavenly messages and will invite the Blessed Mother to have a place in your life, because She loves you very tenderly and desires only your best.

Also, on this blog, MaryRefugeOfHolyLove, I try to feature every day the daily heavenly message of Holy Love Ministry (http://www.holylove.org).  The daily heavenly message are words of wisdom from Our Lord, Our Lady, or the many Saints that visit the site of Maranatha Spring and Shrine, which is home of Holy Love Ministries.  It is located near Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

Holy Love Ministry is an ecumenical organization not affiliated with any church authority.  Although the visionary who receives the messages is Catholic and many of the followers of the messages are Catholic, it is open to all peoples of good will who desire to know and love God better.  You do not have to be Catholic to believe in the heavenly messages and anyone can visit and participate in the prayers and prayer services.  It is open to one and all.

Also, if the spirituality of the United Hearts of Jesus and Mary appeals to you, there is also a prayer association that you can join that is open to all peoples.  It is called the “Secular Order of Missionary Servants of Holy Love (MSHL)” and more information can also be found at the main website for Holy Love Ministry.

Finally, I want to conclude with a heavenly message from Our Lady through Locutions To The World.  God bless!

“The Road the King Will Use to Come Again”

MARY

“I begin where I always begin – in my Immaculate Heart.  This is the heavenly Father’s secret, his plan for the salvation of the world.  He has placed his Son in my heart.  His Holy Spirit has come to abide in my heart.  These are the secrets that I am trying to reveal so all might know of this treasury.  Some misinterpret this doctrine.  They think I am speaking of my own powers and my own prerogatives.  Rather, I am speaking of God’s powers and where to find them.”

“Am I not the Mother of God?  Did not Jesus, true God and Lord of all, dwell in me?  Did not the Holy Spirit overshadow me?  These are the realities that I speak about when I proclaim the importance of my Immaculate Heart.  “He who is mighty has done great things in me”.  I am revealing what God has done by his own free decision.  Just as he decided to abide in the human nature of Jesus, so he has decided to make my Immaculate Heart a place of his abiding and a place where all can find him.”

“People search for Jesus.  They look, but so many times they do not find.  He is in my heart.  He abides there.  He dwells there.  For this reason, the Father wants all the world to honor my Immaculate Heart.  This is the easiest place to find his Son, Jesus.”

“He came the first time through me and he will come the second time through me.  If a king is coming by a certain road, cannot the citizens go out to meet him?  Surely, they can stay home.  Yes, the king will certainly come.  Yet, the wise citizens say, “We need not wait.  We can go out to meet the king”.  They only need to know the road that he will use to come to their city.”

“Everyone knows the road that Jesus used to come the first time.  This is without dispute.  My revelation is so simple, “The road he used the first time, he will use the second time” and those who understand it can go out to meet him.  They can find him before the others, who have no interest in meeting the king or do not know which road he will use.  Now you see the importance of these revelations of my Immaculate Heart.  The king is coming and you can be the first to greet him.”

Our Lady of Medjugorje
Ivan’s Prayer Group
August 12, 2016
http://www.medjugorje.com

(Ivan): I would like to describe to you tonight’s meeting together with Our Lady. Also tonight Our Lady came to us joyful and happy. And as always at the beginning She greeted all of us with Her Motherly greeting, “Praised be Jesus, my dear children.” After that, for awhile, She prayed over all of us here present and then She prayed over all of those of you who are sick present here. Then She said:

“Dear children, also today I am calling you to perseverance in prayer. Pray, dear children, especially for perseverance in families. Today, I am praying together with you for families. I desire, dear children, holiness in the families; that there may be more holy families; those who will live, those who will pray, those who will live the words of my Son and my messages that I am giving to you. Thank you, dear children, also today for having responded to my call.”

After that, Our Lady blessed all of us with Her Motherly Blessing and blessed everything that we brought to be blessed. I recommended all of you, your needs, your intentions, your families. In a special way, I recommended all of you who are present who are sick and the priests. Then Our Lady continued to pray over all of us here. In that prayer, She left in an illuminated Sign of the Cross with the greeting, “Go in peace, my dear children.”

BOOK: “MY HEART WILL TRIUMPH”

Memoir by Medjugorje Visionary, Mirjana Soldo

Introduction (First Page)

My name is Mirjana. I’ve experienced visions of the Virgin Mary for more than 35 years. I cannot say it more directly than that.

I understand that it might be difficult to imagine such a thing happening in modern times. Even to some believers, miracles are things of the past. But I doubt that anyone was more shocked than I was when it all began. I did not even know such things could take place, especially in Međugorje, a small village in former Yugoslavia.

You should know that I’ve been tested by doctors and scientists from all over the world, and they all agree on one thing: I am perfectly normal. I even have that in writing.

So, before you question my mental health, with a smile on my face I simply ask: Do you have an official document validating your sanity?

I did not write this to persuade you to believe me. I am just a messenger, and I wish to share my story with the hope that it might bring some comfort to a world in which peace is becoming increasingly scarce.

Saying that my life changed on the afternoon of June 24, 1981 hardly conveys the gravity of what transpired.

Until that day, I lived under the heavy hand of communism and stomached the many aggravations that went along with it, but the worst suffering began after I and five other children experienced something extraordinary.

What we saw radically changed us, our families, and millions of people around the world, but it also provoked the wrath of the Yugoslav regime. Fearing that my testimony was a threat to their rule, the communists declared me an enemy of the state when I was just 16 years old.

Perhaps their fears were warranted, because I had come to know something far greater than the communist government—far greater, in fact, than anything on Earth…

I had come to know God’s love.

Our Lady of Medjugorje – August 2, 2016 Monthly Message – Day for Non-Believers

Our Lady of Medjugorje
August 2, 2016 Monthly Message
Given through Mirjana on the Day for Non-Believers
http://www.medjugorje.com

“Dear children, I have come to you – among you – for you to give me your concerns so that I may offer them to my Son; that I may intercede for you before Him for your good. I know that each of you has his concerns, his trials. Therefore I am inviting you in a motherly way: come to the table of my Son. He is breaking bread for you; He is giving Himself to you; He is giving you hope; He is asking for more faith, hope and serenity from you. He is seeking of you to battle within against egoism, judgement and human weaknesses. Therefore, as a mother, I am saying: pray; because prayer gives you strength for the interior battle. My Son, when He was little, often said to me that there will be many who will love me and call me ‘mother’. Among you, I feel love. Thank you. For the sake of that love I am imploring my Son that none of you, my children, will return home the same as he came; that you may take with you all the more hope, mercy and love; that you may be my apostles of love who will witness with their lives that the Heavenly Father is the source of life and not of death. Dear children, anew, in a motherly way I am imploring you, pray for the chosen ones of my Son, for their blessed hands – for your shepherds – that they may preach my Son with all the more love and in this way bring about conversions. Thank you.”

Holy Family Refuge Messages
http://www.childrenoftherenewal.com/#!holyfamilyrefuge/cdow

Come Holy Spirit with the Trinity’s words for His Son, July 26, 2016

My beloved son, this is Jesus of love and mercy, and justice.  Your country has not been listening to their God and Maker of Heaven and earth.  As you and your friends said, there are a lot of good people in America but the good people are not following the Commandments.  They are not going to Sunday Mass or any religious celebrations on Sunday.  A lot of them are treating their neighbors and friends good according to the world’s standards, not God’s standards.  Many are divorced and remarried without a Catholic Church annulment.  Many are going to Mass and Communion in a state of mortal sin and committing another sin.  Many go to Mass when they feel like it or one or two times a year.  They skip Mass for sports or any other entertainment that comes in the way of Mass.  They  live together as man and man, or woman and woman, or man and woman without even thinking about a real relationship as husband and wife married in a church in a religious ceremony that their God respects.

Yes as your world looks at it, there are many good people in the world but they are not good in the eyes of God and the Ten Commandments.  If you do not follow the Ten Commandments or ask forgiveness when you commit a sin from your God, or as a Catholic to a priest that represents your God on earth, you are not a good person in the eyes of your God.  You cannot do what feels good when you want to and think you are a good person living in the Will of your God.

I come to tell you one last time that your time is running out quickly.  Your world, as you know it, will not be anymore because of all the sins being committed.  It has been taken over by satan and the majority of the people are walking in the path of satan, not in the path of God who made them.  The Warning is about to come and then the antichrist will promise you a chip in the body and tell you he will give you anything you want and the ones who do not take the chip will not have anything.  You have all listened to satan’s lies before and sometimes believed them.  Do not believe him this time because if you take the chip you will get what he wants, not what you want.  You will turn into a robot from the chip controlling your every move and get a free ride straight to hell.  My children, never listen to a liar.  You will never win anything but heartache and hell if it comes from satan.

My children, I am trying to be as gentle with this message as possible, but the consequences of it will lead you to Heaven for all eternity or to hell for all eternity.  Love, God the Father.  Amen.

Come Holy Spirit with Mary’s words and the Trinity’s protection, July 30, 2016

My love, My beautiful one, this is Mary the Mother of God to all the human race through the power of the most high, God the Father.  He wants Me to speak to you one more time about all the love of the Father and Mother of Heaven and earth.  My son and all Our children, please come to My Father and me when you need love and peace and joy and not to all the things of the world.  The world will just give you momentary pleasures and nothing that lasts.  Most of the things of the world are controlled and run by satan now because of all the sins of the world.  You’ve got to come to Heaven for joy and peace and love.  Then you can give it to your brothers and sisters that do not know about real love.  My children are so confused about their roles in life in this era of time.

My Son and I will be coming to take many of Our children home very soon now.  Please make sure you are ready for Heaven or Purgatory and not hell.  We are all forgiving parents and it is your job and duty to ask forgiveness from your heart for all your past sins.  As My Son said in the other message, you have to ask forgiveness from your heart because We will not go against your free will.  We will send many graces to you just for your asking or that of your brothers and sisters asking for you.  Heaven is full of angels and saints just wanting you to ask them to help you and be with you at all times, day and night.  They will give you all the grace you need to get to Heaven just for the asking.  Forget the sins of the past by asking God’s forgiveness from your heart, mind and soul and then begin to live in the present time with the love and peace of your Mother and Father and all of Heaven.

God never wanted the earth to be sinful.  It was Our children who chose through their own free will to sin instead of following the Ten Commandments that God set down for all to follow and be happy on earth and extremely happy in Heaven.  It is never too late to get down on your knees and beg your God’s forgiveness for all your past sins and be forever happy in Heaven.

The Catholic Church is the One True Church by My Son’s death and resurrection to be followed by all mankind.  The other churches are all taken from the Catholic Church and they just dropped things from the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church that they did not want to obey.  That is how, with satan’s help, the churches got so watered down to the point they are today, the same way that he tricked Eve to eat of the apple from the forbidden tree.

My children, I just ask you to do the best you can with the knowledge  that has been given to you in your life.  Some have been given much and some have been given little to work with.  You will be judged by what you have done with what God has given you.  A teaching from your loving Mother.  Love, love, and more love.

Our Lady of Fatima

Locutions To The World

“Our Lady of the Rosary”

MARY

Today, so many will call on me and remember me in both my joys, my sorrows and my glory. Yet, so many do not know of the power of this devotion to the rosary which can save the world.

When I came to the children at Fatima, I carried the rosary. I taught them to say it fervently and I told Francisco, in particular, that he had to say it properly. He responded with great fervor and said the rosary daily with great devotion.

My servant, St. Louis de Montfort, wrote “The Secret of the Rosary”, which all should read. It is a small book but will inculcate devotion. He writes that he does not know why, but the rosary is the most powerful of prayers.

Let me take you back in history to the famous Battle of Lepanto (1571) when Europe could have been overwhelmed by the Muslims. So many in secular Europe forget their history. They do not realize how only those with faith saved the Western civilization from being totally wiped out by the Muslim attacks. Only the papacy continued to rally the forces of good. Many others, caught up as usual in their selfish interests, would not cooperate and would not turn their eyes to the threat. Only the pope and those whom he could stir were interested in this vital battle.

Although outmanned and really no match for the Muslim fleet, the papal forces won the victory and the West was saved. This naval battle was reinforced by the many who recited the rosary, and so this feast was established, (by Pope Pius V), as an annual reminder of the power of the rosary.

O reader, learn the true history that has been taken from you. The Muslim threat is again at your door. This time, new methods are used, very effective and powerful. You, on the other hand, are asleep. You do not realize how soon will be the day when America will be attacked, an America that is so unprepared to respond, an America that is willing to compromise the truth. The Muslims have no desire to compromise. They seek only conquest. Do you want your children and your grandchildren to live under Muslim rule? Then wake up. Take the rosary in your hands and begin to pray it, today and every day.

“My Heart Will Triumph” – Autobiography By Medjugorje Visionary Mirjana Soldo

My Heart Will Triumph

For those interested, one of the visionaries of Our Lady of Medjugorje, Mirjana Soldo, has written her autobiography.  Mirjana is the visionary who receives the 2nd of the Month messages for nonbelievers and is also the visionary who will reveal the Ten Secrets.

Her book is available for pre-order (available on August 15, 2016) at this website:

“My Heart Will Triumph” by Mirjana Soldo

I checked and the book is not available for pre-order on Amazon.com yet, although I have seen some Catholic online sites promote the book for pre-order.

FROM THE PRESS RELEASE: June 26, 2016

Mirjana is excited to announce that her auto-biography, titled MY HEART WILL TRIUMPH, is complete and will be released on August 15, 2016.

The English version, which will come first, can now be pre-ordered on CatholicShop.com. Versions in Croatian, Italian, Spanish, and other languages will follow.

The 270-page book written by Mirjana tells her entire life story, from the time she was a little girl to the present day. She gives an unprecedented look at the events of Medjugorje, including the many persecutions she endured in the early days of the apparitions. And, as the title suggests, Mirjana’s book reiterates Our Lady’s promise that, in the end, her heart will triumph.

Take a journey into the world of faith and miracles with MY HEART WILL TRIUMPH.

Mirjana is praying that her story will reach many non-believers (or, as Our Lady calls them, “those who not feel the love of God yet”).

Our Lady of Medjugorje
Monthly Message – Day for Non-believers
July 2, 2016

“Dear children, My real, living presence among you should make you happy because this is the great love of my Son. He is sending me among you so that, with a motherly love, I may grant you safety; that you may comprehend that pain and joy, suffering and love, make your soul live intensely; that I may call you anew to glorify the Heart of Jesus, the heart of faith, the Eucharist. From day to day through the centuries, my Son, alive, returns among you – He returns to you, though He has never left you. When one of you, my children, returns to Him, my motherly heart leaps with joy. Therefore, my children, return to the Eucharist, to my Son. The way to my Son is difficult, full of renunciations, but at the end, there is always the light. I understand your pains and sufferings, and with motherly love I wipe your tears. Trust in my Son, because He will do for you what you would not even know how to ask for. You, my children, you should be concerned only for your soul, because it is the only thing on earth that belongs to you. You will bring it, dirty or clean, before the Heavenly Father. Remember, faith in the love of my Son will always be rewarded. I implore you, in a special way, to pray for those whom my Son called to live according to Him and to love their flock. Thank you.”

Holy Love Ministry

June 27, 2016
Feast of Our Lady of Perpetual Help

Our Lady comes as Mary, Refuge of Holy Love. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“Dear children, the treasures of My Heart lie in wait of mankind’s every need. There is no concern too small for My Motherly charge, nor any need too imposing. Do not hesitate to turn to Me during these times when so many decisions weigh upon the heart of the world.”

“You cannot comprehend the evil which lies hidden in hearts. These evils come clothed in goodness and are readily accepted by so many. When you stand for God’s truth you are an open target. When you support and accept sin you find every doorway of opportunity in the world opens. Do not be devoted to the world, its pleasures or decadent moral standards. Remain close to Me through the Holy Rosary. When you pray the rosary I am beside you – praying with you. We must pray for the conversion of the heart of the world together.”

Blessed Virgin Mary – The stage is being set for even greater drama – I am unable to reverse the power of God’s Justice

Holy Love Ministry
http://www.holylove.org

June 16, 2016

Our Lady comes as Mary, Refuge of Holy Love. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“Dear children, you do not see the dangers that lie hidden in hearts as I do, your Heavenly Mother. If you could see all hearts as I am able to, you would not cease praying for the welfare of the world. The stage is being set for even greater drama than the world has seen in the past. Many dangerous practices are being accepted without regard for the evil in hearts or the ways the Will of God is being transgressed. Sadly, events will unfold which will reveal how displeased God is with man’s choices.”

“I am unable to reverse the power of God’s Justice. I can only warn you, that the power to appease God’s Justice lies in your hands. Continue to pray for the conversion of the heart of the world.”

“The Egyptian Uprising”

JESUS

The First Scene of Satan’s Drama (and the point of no return)

With the Egyptian uprising (January 2011), the events of darkness have passed the point of no return. The great confrontation between the devil and the Woman has begun. People do not grasp that events have entered a new stage. They think these are just a new level of the old problems. January 2011 was the point of no return because Satan decided to begin his drama.

The Egyptian uprising has meant that Israel has lost some layers of protection. Israel knows that it is endangered more than before. So, the drama has begun. Satan has sent out the first actors in front of the curtain to begin the show. Soon the curtain will pull back and everything will begin in its fullness.

No director begins the first scene unless he intends to follow it with all of the other scenes. No director begins a show unless the script has been written and well rehearsed. No director begins a show unless all the actors are on hand, especially the most important ones.

Yes, they are all on hand and after this opening scene of the disruptions in the Middle East, the curtain will rise and Satan will introduce his important actors.

These will move the script along and lead up to the main actor. All the important action will wait for his arrival on the scene. When he comes, I will point him out to you, even giving you signs ahead of time.

You will identify all these actors and note how they are reading the script and bringing about the story. All will be clear through the revelation of the Holy Spirit. One after another they will come upon the scene but only when the most important actor arrives will the full power of darkness be seen and manifest.

“The Most Unique Moment in History”

MARY

Time does not stop. The clock always ticks away. History moves on. There are various people and different scenes on the stage of life. Every day, a drama takes place and another scene is completed. The next day, the world wakes to resume the story. All of this will continue until the end of time, when history is completed and my Son will come in glory to gather the elect from the four corners of the world.

Anyone can see that nothing stands still. All is in movement. And what are the forces that shape the narrative? Is the script written ahead of time? Are men and women just actors who speak lines and perform deeds that have been plotted out ahead of time? Not at all. Each has their assigned role but each person is free to accept their great call to be a part of God’s story or to rebel against him and create their own story – a story of death and tragedy.

That is what is happening on the human scene. People have set aside the original script, the original story that was meant to unfold into a story of life and of happiness. Instead, a story of death comes forth and now two stories are intermingled. The story of God is life. The story of man, written apart from God, is the story of death.

How evident all of this is. Human history is a mixture of life and death. Life given by God. Death introduced by man.

Which way will the story go? Here we come to the modern era. Oh, the question has been present, in every age. But, now the story comes to a climax. Yes, I say, a climax and all are witnessing the beginning parts of the climax. This is no longer the same question as in past centuries. Certainly, there were wars and collapses of empires. There were plagues and famines, but these only involved sections of the world. Now all the world is intertwined. The economies are global. The weapons are atomic (or worse). The ability to truly conquer the whole world does lie in the hands of man. See this clearly. Everything is on the table.

Everything. All of history. All of human life, the whole world as you know it. That is why I speak and why my words are so vital. Can I make myself any clearer?

“Satan’s Drama”

JESUS

A director does not begin the first act of his drama unless the script is totally written and all the actors are trained to play their parts.  Once the drama begins, the other acts must follow.

The opening act of Satan’s drama was the Egyptian uprising.  All the other Mideast violence is the introductory act, which takes place in front of the curtain.  When this opening act is finished, then the curtain will open and the whole world will see the fullness of the stage. So, the uprising in Egypt is more than just a first act.  It is a signal that Satan’s drama has begun.

The Drama’s Conclusion

What is the conclusion of his drama?  Is there any doubt?  He wants to turn earth into a hell, the whole earth, not just the Middle East.  Satan wants to cast his fire upon the earth before I can cast my fire.

He does not know, however, that I intend to destroy his story, to send people onto his stage that would change the plot so he does not succeed.  If his drama is allowed to unfold according to his time table, more and more of the world will be destroyed.  The world does not see these Middle East events for what they are.  The world thinks they are passing events (just like what went before) because Satan has not yet pulled back the curtain and revealed the whole stage.  When it is pulled back, the world will see these events as much more serious than they could ever understand.

“Marrying the Wrong Husband”

MARY

Am I powerless?  Need I stay out of the coming event that will shape the world?  Can I not intervene?  I will not stay on the sidelines while the fate of the world is being written and when mankind is about to take a turn toward destruction.

Brink of Destruction

That is the state of the world.  It is on the brink of destruction.  The powers of destruction lie in the hands of those who are controlled by Satan.  All of this is new.  The level of destructive power has never been this high.  The extent of these powers has never been so broad.

The usual response to these destructive powers has been force.  Yet, what force can be used?  Would not the retaliatory force also play into Satan’s hand?  Killing is his goal and suffering is a sign of his presence.

Day after day, Satan’s works go on.  He puts his plan into action, stirring more and more hearts in his flame of anger.  Look at the Middle East.  It is aflame with the satanic fires and this is only the opening act, taking place in front of the curtain.  Wait until he pulls back the curtain and unveils more of his plan.

Satan’s Drama Unfolds

The longer I am not invoked, the longer his drama is allowed to unfold.  The more he can place his people on the world stage, armed with his destructive powers and enlightened with his Satanic darkness, the more the world will be shaped in Satan’s image and likeness, the gruesome image of death.

O world when will you turn to me, the Woman clothed in the Sun?  I am speaking to you now, while it is just his first act and this deadly drama has only begun.  I will say it again.

The uprising in northern Africa and in the Middle East are only the opening scene, to give you a preview of what is to come.  This is not a musical or comedy.  The director has already introduced you to the drama’s theme and purpose.  The theme is violence, unrest, hatred and destruction.  Through the people who he controls, Satan wants to rule earth.

The Prince of Peace

One day, I brought forth a child.  He is the Prince of Peace.  He is the true Lord of Lords.  He is the King, a loving and gentle King, who wants only life for you.  Foolishly, you have set him aside.  You thought you did not need him.  You called yourselves secular.  You declared a separation of earth from heaven.  You have gotten your separation papers because heaven only comes when it is invited.  However, hell comes whenever it chooses.

You have separated from heaven and you are now joined to hell.  I will say this clearly.  You are engaged to hell and if you keep going, Satan will become your bridegroom and you will have married the wrong husband.

I cannot allow this to happen.  I will act quickly.  I will save those who can be saved.  I can no longer be a gentle mother.  A fire is burning and I must save my children.

“An Overview of the Human Drama”

MARY

Where will all of this end? Where does the road lead? That is still undecided. The heavenly Father has his plan for world history. He invites. He enlightens but he does not impose his plan. Man is free, able to accept God’s invitation or to walk a different path.

History is not a drama in which each person is forced to play a role, good or bad. Human history is God’s plan and it will end up with the great victory of his Son, Jesus Christ. He will be triumphant, with all the angels and saints. That part is unchangeable. How and when that moment arrives, who will be counted among the elect, how each person will share or not share in Jesus’ victory is not predetermined. This drama plays out every single day in the choices and actions of every living human person.

Behind the scene, are two forces – divine and demonic, good and bad. They are not equal forces. Satan, in the end, will be destroyed and cast forever into hell. As yet, he is still able to greatly influence human history, mainly through people whom he controls or has some power over. This is what I constantly teach. His activity is planned and is now coming to a culmination. The great war, described in Revelation, Chapter 12, is beginning. I am the Woman Clothed With the Sun, Satan’s great adversary, hidden until this age but now being revealed. Everyone, but especially the Church, must listen to me and do as I say. Otherwise, Satan will continue to enjoy more victories.

“Manifesting Her Presence”

MARY

All history is in my hands.  I know the movements of every heart and of every event.  I see all that has happened and all that will happen.  Nothing is determined.  Events are shaped by human decisions.  This was God’s plan from the beginning.

I am not a passive spectator, who merely watches the drama unfold.   I am the Woman Clothed With the Sun who has power to intervene.  I am part of human history.  I was born into the world and lived in the world as everyone else.

My role now is more extensive and, in the Father’s plan, I must assume greater and greater responsibilities for the safety and protection of humanity.  I have been announcing this plan for years but now it its taking place, right before your eyes.

As one event leads to another, as one problem begets greater ones, you can see the importance of my coming on the scene, of making myself known, of lifting up my special son and of manifesting my presence all over the world.

Right now, I am only interested in you, the reader.  I have led you to these locutions and I want to give you extraordinary blessings.   Others, who do not know me, will receive later.

You will receive now.  You do not understand everything but you want to receive.  You have read all of my promises.  You have studied my ways.  Most important, you believe.  Why should I delay? You are prepared to receive.

Close your eyes.  I am with you.  Experience my presence.  Do not move.  Stay still until the gift is complete.  Repeat this often.  Each time, I will act more deeply within you.

“The Culmination of the Drama”

MARY

Bombs, explosions, deaths on every side, peace talks, and failed negotiations – a constant cycle which now takes center stage.  But what has not been seen in this unfolding drama?  What waits in the wings?  You can see what is present.  The future is hidden from your eyes.

I have said that the events would begin in 2015 and that all previous events were just a preparation.  The events would then speed up, one after another, each one linked, each one the next act of the drama, until all comes to a conclusion.  These are the present moments.  The curtain has opened.  The drama has begun.  Satan has written his script, prepared his actors, placed them in their positions and now actively guides their steps.  He knows the story he has written, quite a different script from God’s original plan.  He has the stage all to himself, having removed all those who would be able to oppose him.  Only the Church remains, the one light that still shines, set aside by world leaders and rejected by so many.

This is my message.  This drama of death, wars, terror, destruction, the division of countries, the millions who must flee their homes, the intense and useless sufferings, the failed plans, the weak initiatives, and the quick spread of evil will continue and become even more serious.  If allowed to go to its conclusion and end according to Satan’s script, nothing would be left.

The only hope lies in the Church because there I will begin my intervention.  I will enter this drama only through one door, the Roman Catholic Church.  This will be evident to all.  There will be signs from the very beginning, as clear as the sun rising.   In the beginning, the world will only know that the Woman has begun to act.  What I will do and how I will accomplish this will still be hidden.  By that time, the darkness will be so great, that all will receive and welcome this rising sun.  This hope and welcoming is extremely important.  Then, I can accomplish all that I intend.

The vision has its time.  The Fatima vision will be the culmination of the drama. The death of the pope, the bishops, priests, religious and laity in Jerusalem will be like a new Calvary, the greatest moment of darkness before the light of the resurrection.  After the death of the pope, the forces of evil will be spent.  The tides will be reversed and will flow in the opposite direction.   I will have gained the victory, the purification of the human race in the most merciful way of all.  The pope will take upon himself the sins of the world and relive the great mystery of the Lamb of God.

Comment:  This locution is a very deep revealing of both the events and their meaning in God’s plan.  Our Lady alludes to the saying in Habakkuk, “The vision still has its time, presses on to fulfillment and will not disappoint.  If it delays, wait for it.  It will surely come, it will not be late” (2:3).

Our Lady comes as Mary, Refuge of Holy Love. She says:

“Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come to remind you that anything that is not of Holy Love is not of God. No one enters the Heavenly Kingdom who does not embrace the Two Commandments of Love. This maxim holds true for important leadership, influential politicians and the most lowly insignificant soul of all. None are exempt. Errors in ideologies or lack of knowledge are only obstacles which the soul must overcome.”

“This Mission* has been brought to earth as an oasis of Truth amidst an arid desert of untruth. I offer My Immaculate Heart as a Refuge and resource of Truth. I desire to help you through these times, dear children, so that you will not be caught up in Satan’s lies and confusion. Come to Me as I am your Mother and Protectress of your faith.”

“Dear children, as the Mother of the Church, as your mother, I am smiling as I look at you: how you are coming to me, how you are gathering around me, how you are seeking me. My comings among you are proof of how much Heaven loves you. They indicate to you the way to eternal life, to salvation. My apostles, you who strive to have a pure heart and to have my Son in it, you are on the good way. You who are seeking my Son are seeking the good way. He left many signs of His love. He left hope. It is easy to find Him if you are ready for sacrifice and penance—if you have patience, mercy and love for your neighbors. Many of my children do not see and do not hear because they do not want to. They do not accept my words and my works, yet through me, my Son calls everyone. His Spirit illuminates all of my children in the light of the Heavenly Father, in the unity of Heaven and Earth, in mutual love—because love invokes love and makes works more important than words. Therefore, my apostles, pray for your Church, love it and do works of love. No matter how betrayed or wounded, it is here because it comes from the Heavenly Father. Pray for your shepherds so that in them you may see the greatness of the love of my Son. Thank you.”
