Our Situation/Our Prayer
Considerations: In January, 2011, repairs were done to a runway at the Tampa airport because of "polar shifting." The runway was 6 degrees off. Scientists report the north pole is shifting about 40 km each year away from true north. (1 km= 0.621 miles.) If this is true, the changing relationship between the earth and the sun would seem to cause such recent weather extremes as colder winters and hotter summers, and perhaps, a melting of the polar ice caps. (Could this be the truth about "global warming?")
But what is most astonishing is the following correlation between world events and polar shifting. According to a Geological Survey of Canada, spanning 170 years of documentation (from 1831 to 2001), scientific indications are that what use to be a shift of 10 km per year, has now accelerated to 40 km per year.
The correlation between world events and polar shifting.
(A copy of the referenced geographical survey can be found by Googling: NASA-Earth's Inconstant Magnetic Field.)
Between 1831-1904 there is little, if any, change in the polar position. It holds steady. Looking at this period of time historically, we must consider Pope Leo XIII's vision in 1888, when Satan asked Jesus for 75-100 years to try the Church. (See the St. Michael tab for details.) In just 12 years,in 1904, the earth's poles began to shift. - 1914-1918 - World War I.
- In 1917, the Virgin Mary appeared at Fatima. The following year, World War I ended, just as she told the children. "The war is going to end. But if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the pontificate of Pius XI. When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given you by God that He is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and the Holy Father..."
great aurora borealis, followed a
few months later by the beginning
of World War II (1938-1945), just as
the Blessed Virgin had predicted.
An aurora borealis is formed by the
effect of magnetic energy around the
earth's poles.)
- According to the Canadian Geographical Survey, right after World War II ended in 1945, an odd thing appears on the graph. Beginning in 1948 until 1972 (for 24 years) it doesn't appear there's any polar shifting at all. It is during this time that America is strong, and the earth, stable.
- However, the next date on the geographical map is 1972. From there, the shifting abruptly begins again, and we must consider that immediately after 1972, in fact in January 1973, America legalized abortion. Since then, the earth's shift has not stopped, but has accelerated away from true north---as we have literally lost our "moral compass."
After the Japan earthquake and tsunami, there were news reports by scientists that the earthquake shifted the earth's axis by 25 cm. However, if the earth's axis is already shifting, could such motion cause the plates to shift, which might cause the earthquake & subsequent tsunami in Japan? Which is the cause, and which is the effect?
We must also remember that no one will know the day nor the hour, so it's useless to concern ourselves with certain dates.---"But of that day and hour no one knoweth, no not the angels of heaven, but the Father alone." Matt.24:36 ---"Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour." Matthew 25:13
However, at the culmination of evil, wouldn't a good and loving God allow humanity all possible help in order to prepare their souls for Heaven? Will we recognize the time of Our Lord's visitation?---Holy Love Message 9/20/11 "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate. I have come to help all to see that no one can enter eternal life outside of purification. Holy Love is the means of purification. This is why this Mission is so much a preparation for the New Jerusalem, both in Heaven and on earth.
These days people invest great efforts into preparing for what they think will be their physical needs in the future. Holy Love must be their spiritual portion now and in days to come. The signs are all around you of My Return. Do not let the enemy distract you from the only preparation that counts; that is, Holy Love in your heart. Holy Love is the Rapture; your flight away from all that is evil; your escape in difficulty; your refuge of safety. Do not fear, but trust."
In most places where Jesus or Mary have appeared, and in documented messages given to some of the saints of ages past, they foretell of an approaching time when all people will suddenly see their souls the way God sees them. This will be an act of His Divine Mercy and will allow each one of us to repent of our sins and turn our hearts toward God. Is it possible this event would be due to some cataclysmic event?

"The foundations of the earth will shake. The earth will burst asunder, the earth will be shaken apart, the earth will be convulsed. The earth will reel like a drunkard, and it will sway like a hut: Its rebellion will weigh it down, until it falls, never to rise again....Then the moon will blush and the sun grow pale, for the Lord of hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem...." (Isaiah, Chapter 24)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
8/5/03 Jesus "It is this reciprocating love that holds the sun, the moon and the stars in their place, and the world upon its axis. If love can bring harmony to the universe, think of the power one heart can have that chooses to love."
7/28/96 Mary "Today, most of humanity has chosen self over God and fellow man: death over life; hate over love. For the sake of man's free will, God has only intervened indirectly by sending Me into the world to admonish and call to conversion. My coming to you with this message of Holy Love is a last minute grace, which heaven hopes will bring many to salvation.
"Today, as I speak to you, cosmic events are taking place. Patterns are being established and certain constellations choosing unforseen paths. Through the evil in hearts these things are being permitted by God, who does not want to punish but who will not interfere."
"Man's final judgment of choice upon the world will bring about a collision of heavenly bodies. Your planet will swerve from its course. For 3 days natural laws will be suspended. Earth will be plunged into darkness--both in hearts and in the world. The good will be sustained through the Refuge of My Immaculate Heart and will not see unprovided death. But woe to those who walk the path of perdition. Some will die of fear. Others will take their own lives.
"It is during this time that those consecrated to the Flame of My Immaculate Heart will be protected. These souls will be the light in the midst of darkness. There is no nation that can provide safe refuge during these three days, but My Heart will provide to those who are thus consecrated to Me."
"I do not come to frighten you. I come to show you the way around fear, which is this Mother's Heart. I am so ready to shelter My children, to appease injustice, to protect the faith. Make this known."
7/12/95 (The visionary states that Mary comes as "Our Lady of Guadalupe") "...I am Queen of the Cosmos for even the stars of heaven come to rest upon My mantle." (The "Our Lady of Guadalupe" tab explains how the heavenly stars rested upon her mantle.) ".....If hearts are not reconciled to God, the peace and harmony of the entire cosmos is destroyed."5/12/95 Mary "All that I am revealing to you is occurring because of lack of Holy Love in hearts. As the Season of Tribulation draws to a close, and during the reign of the Antichrist which will be in hearts and in the world, certain and ordained cosmic events will occur. These will mark the onset of the great purification. Some heavenly bodies will loose their light. Others will fall to earth, relinquishing their place in the heavens."
"When these things begin to occur, people will clamor for admittance to My Heart, just as they clamored to get into the Ark when the flood began. But I will not admit those who do not love."
"Dear daughter, dear children, once again I appeal to you to have Holy Love in your hearts, always in the present moment. For what is in hearts affects the entire cosmos. If hearts embrace the Light that is My Son, the world will be in the Light. If hearts choose darkness, the world will be plunged into darkness. Holy Love is the measure by which you choose. Stay close to My dear Pope, John Paul II, - his teachings and encyclicals. Follow the new catechism. What stands contrary to any of these, is contrary to Holy Love and Heaven."
"My daughter, I tell you, if the lukewarm would accept Holy Love in their hearts, much about the chastisement would be changed, for these are the ones that gravely wound the Heart of My Son. When the darkness comes it will be complete and certain." (The visionary explains...) Her Mantle is turning black. Some of the stars on Her mantle are slipping off and some are going out. The only light is coming from the area of Her Heart. Our Lady continues. "See My dear daughter, that My Heart is the safe Refuge all must seek. This is Holy Love. Those who do not recognize it will perish. Dear children, your strength and your might are in the Flame of Love that is My Heart. I am always with you, most especially when you are praying My Rosary. I desire that you pray for deep faith and trust. Always follow My beloved Pope who is much maligned and under attack."
"Dear children, continue to be courageous in your efforts to spread Holy Love, for you are My dear apostles. Tonight, I am extending to you once again, My Special Blessing"
In the above message the visionary describes Mary's Mantle turning black and some stars slipping off and going out. (Remember the Guadalupe Image shows the constellations that were in the sky, and at the same time on her Mantle, on 12/12/1531.) This is what Scripture states: "And I saw, when he had opened the sixth seal, and behold there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair: and the whole moon became as blood: And the stars from heaven fell upon the earth, as the fig tree casteth its green figs when it is shaken by a great wind..." (Apocalypse 6:12-13)
7/10/98 (Mary) "Before My Son returns, each soul will be made to know his state before God....Earth, indeed, finds herself in a precarious position before the Hand of Justice. If we work together, we can reverse some of what lies ahead..."
5/5/01 Jesus "...The abyss between heaven and earth widens with each abortion..."
10/7/08 (Celebration of "Our Lady of the Rosary" (Mary) "Your country, and indeed the world, has embarked upon perilous times--perilous because truth is not recognized and My children seek to please themselves instead of God and neighbor. Peace will not come to you through military efforts, weapons of mass destruction or superficial negotiations. Security will not come through new economic programs or stabilization of Wall Street. All of these are contingent upon this.." (She is holding a large teardrop from the Rosary of the Unborn.) "Pray this Rosary to bring an end to legalized abortion. The future of the world depends upon it."
1/5/2002 (Jesus) "Do not be surprised, little lambs, when I tell you that your response to Heaven's call towards personal holiness carries with it universal impact. For it is each soul's response to love God above all else, and his neighbor as himself that determines the course of human history. Lack of Holy Love pulls the soul off course and creates an abyss between heaven and earth. Then nature and the course of human events are changed forever....It is discord between the Divine Will of My Father in Heaven and free will which causes wars, cataclysmic events in nature, and moral apathy..."

Jesus to St. Faustina - Entry #83 "Write this: Before I come as the Just Judge, I am coming first as the King of Mercy. Before the Day of Justice arrives, there will be given to people a sign in the heavens of this sort:
All light in the heavens will be extinguished, and there will be great darkness over the whole earth. Then the sign of the cross will be seen in the sky, and from the openings where the hands and the feet of the Savior were nailed will come forth great lights which will light up the earth for a period of time. This will take place shortly before the last day."

Our Mission
1/25/87 (Mary @ Medjugorje) "Dear children, I want you to comprehend that God has chosen each one of you, in order to use you in His great plan for the salvation of mankind. You are not able to comprehend how great your role is in God's design. Therefore, dear children, pray so that in prayer you may be able to comprehend what God's plan is in your regard. I am with you in order that you may be able to bring it about in all its fullness."
11/5/02 (Jesus) "....My dear Remnant Faithful, in you is My hope. In you rests the security and the peace of the world at large. I am depending upon, and relying upon your relentless prayers and sacrifices; for it is by this means I can extend grace--extraordinary grace--to souls and to the world--graces that can change history forever."
8/8/85 (Mary @ Medjugorje) "Dear children, today I call you especially now to advance against Satan by means of prayer. Satan wants to work still more now that you know he is at work. Dear children, put on the armor for battle and with the Rosary in your hand, defeat him!"
4/25/08 (Jesus & Mary appeared. Mary was holding the Rosary of the Unborn.) (Jesus) "Today I tell you, it is not an hour of decision that rests upon the world, but a moment to moment decision that determines the fate of humanity. My Father looks into each heart in every present moment. The scale of justice tilts precariously. When it seems the Arm of Justice must fall, it is suddenly persuaded, through the prayers and sacrifices of the Remnant Faithful, to remain steadfast. My brothers and sisters, (Jesus lifted up the crucifix of the Rosary of the Unborn that Mary was holding) "It is this sacramental that links Heaven and earth and balances the scale of justice in the present moment. Continue to use it fervently."We must offer our crosses.
"Then Jesus said to his disciples: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me....For the son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works." Matthew 16:24, 27One day, when the Angel appeared to the Fatima children, he asked them what they were doing. Then he told them: "Pray! Pray much! The Hearts of Jesus and Mary have merciful designs on you. Offer prayers and sacrifices constantly to the Most High." The children asked, "How are we to make sacrifices?" The Angel responded: "Make of everything you can a sacrifice, and offer it to God as an act of reparation for the sins by which He is offended, and in supplication for the conversion of sinners. You will thus draw down peace upon your country. I am its Angel Guardian, the Angel of Portugal. Above all, accept and bear with submission the suffering which the Lord will send you."
We all experience sufferings and inconveniences every day. We can complain about them, blame others, or try to escape them by such destructive outlets as drugs or alcohol.....or, we can offer them for the forgiveness of sins and the conversion of sinners. ______________________________________________________________
Carrying the Cross is not easy, but God is our strength.
† We must pray for the grace to carry our Crosses †
in a manner that is pleasing to Our Lord.
The motive of "Love" makes each Cross easier.
9/16/09 (Jesus) "Concerning the Cross, I tell you, the Cross represents not only suffering but victory. You may not see the victory with your naked eyes, but it is there. Victories are often in hearts or in situations. Perhaps the victory is the resolution of disagreements. Perhaps the victory is merely the acceptance of truth! This, in itself, is not a small victory but quite possibly the deciding factor in salvation. A great victory is the return of a soul to the path of righteousness. When you face a cross--big or little--remember, then, that it is a sign of a forthcoming victory. The greater the cross, the greater the triumph."
9/23/11 Jesus - "My brothers and sisters, the path I walked while on earth was strewn with many crosses, obstacles and victories. You must follow Me in My Footsteps, bearing with every cross, no matter how great; and celebrating every victory, no matter how small...."

A United Army Can Defeat The Enemy Of Our Souls.
(**This is not an appeal to become Catholic...but an appeal to "unite" as Christians fighting for a singular purpose. And as the Catholic Church is undergoing its own necessary purification, we must consider that in light of the recent scandals, the priesthood still has a purpose that should not be a stumbling block to others.)
Over the years, many who believe in God, and those who even call themselves Christian, have been quick to condemn or to show their contempt for Catholics (or the Catholic Church), our Jewish brothers and sisters, or those of denominations other than their own. We must remember that in the history of humanity, God established His Law, and promised His blessing, through the Jewish people. Theirs is the true Root of Faith in God. History also
documents that Jesus chose Peter from among all of His followers and established him alone as the Head of His Church, "And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven..." (Matthew 16:18-19)Jesus established His priesthood, and He, Himself, is the High Priest of this ministry. The priesthood remains until the end of time, as it is referred to in the prophetic Books of the Bible by such passages as:
"Behold the Lord shall lay waste the earth, and shall strip it, and shall afflict the face thereof, and scatter abroad the inhabitants thereof. And it shall be as with the people, so with the priest..." Isaias 24:1-2
"And they sung a new canticle, saying: Thou art worthy, O Lord, to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; because thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God, in thy blood, out of every tribe,and tongue, and people, and nation. And hast made us to our God a kingdom and priests, and we shall reign on the earth..." Apocalypse 5:9-10
Consider the information we presented on the home page about how God required sacrificial offerings from the very beginning---from the time of Adam, Eve and their children. As Jesus is the Acceptable Sacrifice, and His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity is more worthy and acceptable than that of lambs and other creatures, wouldn't God want the Daily Sacrifice to be offered to Him by a priest....by one who has been called, as Aaron and his sons were...coming apart from the world for a holy purpose? As the Old Testament priests were called to be holy to go before the Ark of the Covenant, and Moses had to take off his shoes in order to enter into the Presence of God, shouldn't Jesus have established that a holy priesthood be entrusted with the offering of the Daily Sacrifice of the Mass? "Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was." Hebrews 5:4
The Daily Sacrifice continues until the end of time...then it is taken away, as foretold in Daniel 12:11 "And from the time when the continual sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination unto desolation shall be set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred ninety days..." Truly, Mass is a "continual" Sacrifice, as it is always being offered somewhere in the world. At just one local Catholic Church, the Mass is offered at least 4 times each day. Imagine Masses being offered to the Father at every Catholic Church, in every city, in every time zone. Truly it is continual.
So even though there have been terrible crimes committed by some priests, we still need to respect the "priesthood" overall, as an ordained ministry established by Jesus, Himself. Priests have received their ministry by the laying on of hands from priest to priest, throughout the generations. This has continued for 2,000 years---from Peter to the local priest in every Catholic Church. In the great line of popes, stretching back for those 2,000 years, there has been continuous leadership in the Christian (Catholic) Faith. Maybe there were some less admirable or disputable popes a few times, but the succession has certainly continued and leadership has not failed. In the same way, we must consider that in our very own ancestoral line there could have easily been undesirable ancestors, even criminals. Yet that doesn't mean that we have such tendencies. Even the least admirable family lines can produce holy saints--- and the Church can provide holy leadership in the same way.
The following graph demonstrates our unity through the Jewish "Root" of our ancestoral Faith (according to Matthew, Chapter 1), as it details all the generations from Abraham to Jesus. In Luke-Ch. 3, the ancestoral line is traced back to Adam. However, at the point of the New Testament, the line does not continue forward. It stops at Jesus, and Jesus establishes the leader of His Church. After Peter died, another took his place, and leadership has continued until the present day. Therefore, let us understand that we are all brothers and sisters in the Lord our God, whether Catholic, Protestant, Jew or any other denomination. We must set aside our theological differences and unite in love...Holy Love...as the people of God. Let us be peacable toward one another and join forces against the one who is our true enemy....the enemy of our souls. So, let us remove the stumbling blocks of division...and let our pure prayers rise to Heaven for the good of our families, our nation and all souls.
"And one of the ancients said to me; Weep not; behold the lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof." Apocalypse 5:5(As mentioned before, on the "Mountain of the Lord" page, it looks like there is a lion laying down near the left side of the mountain.)
For those who are Catholic
(***This is not a Catholic web-site, but it will reach some who have walked away from their Faith. This short segment addresses Catholics for that purpose.)
~~~
Once a baptized Catholic...always a baptized Catholic. Your baptism is an indelible mark. It cannot be erased. That means that you always have the opportunity to return to your Faith, and to the Sacraments, at any time. It begins with a most sincere confession, and by responding to any advice the priest may give you.Yours is the privilege of receiving the Sacraments. When we exit the Confessional, after having made a sincere confession---and after hearing the words of Jesus through His priest, "Your sins are forgiven"---it's such a wonderful feeling! It gives us Freedom in the truest sense. Let us often make use of this Sacrament. Our Lady of Fatima recommended we do this on the first Saturday of each month.
We also have the privilege of receiving Jesus, truly Present in the Holy Eucharist (Holy Communion). "The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying: How can this man give us his flesh to eat? Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say unto you: Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath everlasting life: and I will raise him up in the last day. For my flesh is meat indeed: and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, abideth in me, and I in him..." (John 6:53-57)
Consider His real Presence. We've all heard stories about people "being possessed" or objects that are evil---about ghost stories and casting spells. Most people believe that these things can happen, but for Jesus to come from Heaven and enter into the objects of bread and wine is "unbelievable" to many. Should Jesus allow Satan to have such power over people and objects, but He, Himself, be restrained? Jesus promised to remain with us all days, even until the end of the world, and this is how He has chosen to do it, throughout all generations. Can you imagine how much He loves us---for our God to humble Himself to be Present with us in such a way?
Our Lord is entire and complete in each Eucharistic Host, or even in a small portion of a Host. It is like the ability of everyone throughout the whole world to watch the Superbowl, at the same time---whether it's on a small TV or a jumbotron. All are able to see the entire picture, and all the players---no matter how big or small the TV---or far away the location. Each picture is entire and complete. So too, is Jesus in each Eucharistic Host, or portion of Host.
As God instructed Moses in the Old Testament, not just anyone could offer sacrifices or even enter into the presence of the Tabernacle. He chose Aaron, his sons and the Levites with singular responsibilities that no one else was to fulfill. So too, in our Church, it is only through a priest's consecration that bread and wine can become the actual Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Our God is a God of perfect order and design, and He upholds His promises. As the Creator of Life, through His "scientific promise," He requires that all factors must be present for a woman to conceive new life within her womb. So too, only if all of God's ordaining factors are fulfilled through a priest, will He manifest His Divine Being in the form, or appearance, of bread and wine. If then, through a priest's act of Consecration, Jesus enters into the bread and wine completely, what should one do with left-over Communion? He, Jesus in Holy Communion, is placed in the Tabernacle. It is no longer bread and wine, but Jesus, Himself, and He must be revered and respected as the Lord...our God. "...and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world." Matthew 28:20 (In the Old Testament Book of Exodus, Ch. 25, it explains how God required that the show bread be respected with great adornment & reverence, housed in gold.)
During the Church's arranged times of Adoration, the Eucharistic Host (Jesus) is placed in a monstrance so that we may show Him our love, respect and adoration. If someone were to advertise that Jesus, Himself, was going to be in an arena in Orlando on a certain day, people all over the state would tie up traffic in order to get there....and they would leave early enough to get a good seat. But the truth is, Jesus is in every Tabernacle of every Catholic Church. There is nowhere else on earth one could go, in order to be so close to His real Presence, than before a Tabernacle. There He heals, consoles, gives solutions, shows mercy, and so much more. Even if there are no scheduled hours of Adoration, one can sit in their car, in the church's parking lot, and pray to Jesus---Who is truly present inside that church. There would be no walls between you and Jesus spiritually, and there is much merit to be gained for you to desire to draw near to, and revere, His True Presence.
Shown above, one of the oldest churches in Mexico City gives glory to God by the exquisite beauty of its Tabernacle, housed in gold, which is built into the wall behind the altar. But in America, many churches have removed the Tabernacle completely from the main body of the church, and have placed it in a little out-of-the-way place, such as in a chapel. At an Ohio church, pictured above on the right, the Tabernacle has been removed from the main assembly and placed in the chapel. But it's still not the main focal point---even in the chapel. Here, it resembles a microwave oven in the corner, and even the chairs are angled away from Jesus, truly present in the Tabernacle. Today, when we enter a Catholic Church in America, we need to find Jesus, and show Him our respect by kneeling in prayerful reverence...no matter where they have relocated His dwelling place among men. When parishioners enter many of the Catholic Churches today, they do not even acknowledge their Savior in the Tabernacle because He is no longer invited into the room until 1/2 way through the Mass---during the Consecration. In at least one Ohio Diocese, the laity have been told to stand during the Consecration & Offering. These are very sad and subtle changes of disrespect which cause confusion for the laity.---Even at the mention of Jesus' NAME, "every knee should bow." (Philip. 2:10). For us, in whatever way we can, let us show our respect for Him whenever we enter and exit our Churches.
Receive Jesus often, but in a state of grace...without the guilt of grave sin. For Scripture warns: "For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord. 1st Corinthians 11:29
(In the same way, those who are not Catholic, must receive instructions in the Catholic Faith before receiving Holy Communion in a Catholic Church. It's an easy process, but you must be a practicing Catholic before receiving Our Lord.---If interested in coming into the Church, any Catholic priest will be able assist you with the process.)
It would be a great service to the laity if priests would offer the opportunity for Confession before all Masses, Holy Hours of Adoration, and weekday evening Masses for working people.
For those who are Catholic, let us respond to the following Holy Love message:
9/5/06 Jesus "When an army advances in the world, the people within the country under attack unite and use their most powerful weapons to ward off the enemy and secure the border. In this battle which Satan is waging against holy and Divine Love, those of you who are already living the spirituality I call you to in this Mission must unite and defend the truth with the powerful weapons of the Rosary, Masses and Communions. The more hearts that are won over to Holy Love, the stronger My Victory. Today I invite you to see that the path I call you upon is Truth, Love and Mercy. My heart is all Truth, all Love and all Mercy. With docility, imitate Me...."
How to Pray
We can't develop a relationship with someone we don't talk to. Just "talk" to Jesus, as you would to a best friend or family member....and know that He hears you and loves you for the unique person He created you to be. No one in the entire world understands you better than Jesus. He knows all your hidden needs even before you ask. He wants only the very best for you in your life situation. He can help you in every necessity...in every difficult situation, and He puts people and events into motion in order to help you....even before you ask.Jesus told St. Faustina: "The prayer of a humble and loving soul disarms the anger of My Father and draws down an ocean of blessings. (#320)
The best prayer is one from the heart, with complete TRUST in Jesus. We must remember that Jesus is One in Being with the Father and the Holy Spirit. God, the Holy Trinity, has created all that exists. He knows everything, and can do all things. He can make something out of nothing. He even knows how many hairs we have on our heads. What an awesome God! It pleases Him very much when we trust Him. He wants all people to go to Heaven....everyone! But He gives us advise on how to get there, so we must learn....by studying the Holy Love messages, reading the Bible (start with the New Testament--the Life of Jesus), and we can learn a lot by faithfully praying the Rosary. It's a mystery how she does it, but Mary's children know that "somehow" she teaches through the Rosary. Remember, she lived with Jesus for 33 years on earth and is now with Him in Heaven, and just as He's given certain missions to angels throughout the Bible, He has appointed her with the mission of helping us, as a true Mother.
You can also ask any of the saints in Heaven to pray for you. We ask people here on earth to pray for us all the time, but once a saint enters into Heaven, they still have the ability to pray for us, and their prayers carry more strength in order to help us because they are pure and sinless. In Heaven, they are able to go before the Throne of God on our behalf. The next time you loose something...with all confidence, ask St. Anthony to help you find it. You'll be surprised at his quick assistance! Need to make a good confession? Ask Padre Pio to prepare your heart. St. Teresa will assist you in loving Jesus with a pure and childlike faith. Reading about the life of a saint, and asking for their help, will make for you, a friend for life, that will never disappoint.St. Padre Pio of Pietrelcina St. Francis of Assisi
Live by the promises Jesus gives us. His promises can be found in such resources as: the Bible, messages from the Holy Love Apparitions, or in the writings of some of His saints (such as what He revealed to St. Faustina about the Divine Mercy Devotion.)
EXAMPLES OF JESUS' PROMISES
1. In the Bible: "...and whatsoever you shall ask the Father in my
name, that will I do..." John 14:13
St. Anthony of Padua
2. (To combat distractions during prayer.) From Sister Consolata Betrone, who is most likely in Heaven, although the Church has not declared her a "Saint of the Church" yet. Jesus revealed this important promise to her on 10/20/35 in order to show us how to prevent distracting thoughts, which often take us away from a good prayer effort. "Offer Me these undesired thoughts at every instant with this (short prayer): 'For Thee and for souls!" I will transform these thoughts which come to you from morning to night, and which hinder your love, into graces and blessings for souls." (This is such a good practice. It usually takes only 2 or 3 "For Thee and for souls" before you have moved on from your distracting thought.) He also told her "Satan...swore he would ruin the world, and I vowed I would save it; and I will save it through the triumph of My Mercy and My Love. Yes, I will save the world through My Merciful Love!" He further teaches us, through her, to pray what He called: "a continuous act of love" with the prayer, "Jesus, Mary, I love you! Save souls!" He promised" Do not lose time! Every act of love means a soul! and, "One 'Jesus, Mary, I love You! Save souls!' repairs a thousand blasphemies!"(another example of Jesus' promises)
3. Holy Love Apparition 6/5/2003: "Realize the power of My Name--indeed, the power of calling on your Jesus in times of temptation and trial. When you say My Name, all of Heaven comes to attention. The power of My Precious Blood covers you and evil is made to vanish. When you say even more---'Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us'--evil will be revealed, for Satan cannot remain hidden when I am thus invoked. When you pray--'United Hearts of Jesus and Mary, guide and protect us'--Satan not only flees, but the path you must follow in righteousness is laid bare. (These short prayers) ...are not magic words, but prayers which, when prayed from the heart, bring results according to the Father's Holy and Divine Will. A prayer from the heart rises from a heart steeped in Holy Love....If people learn how to pray---how to invoke heavenly aid in time of need---they will begin to depend on prayer as a way out of every crisis---not only on a personal scale, but also events on a world scale. What I am saying to you today is, let Me be Lord of each present moment. When world events and natural events are surrendered to me, I carry out the Father's Divine Will. It is important that each soul surrenders. When souls hold back and do not trust Me, My efforts are weakened both in their lives and in the world. You do not see what lies ahead. My Mother sheds many tears for what She sees and knows. I remain still your Merciful Jesus. Turn to Me in trustful surrender. Certain events will occur universally that will be compelling towards surrender to Divine Providence. Hearts which do not know how to surrender---hearts which do not trust in Me---will fall into despair. Manifest will My grace be in the hearts and lives of those who trust....My brothers and sisters, here in this mission, I offer you and open to you the innermost Chambrs of My Sacred Heart. Every grace that you need to enter and proceed into these Chambers is offered through the Heart of My Mother. But I will never impede man's free will. Choose according to Holy Love and I will bless your journey even now, as We bless you with the Blessing of Our United Hearts."

9/15/08 (Mary) "Before you begin to pray, say:" "Heavenly Father, I give You my love. Take this prayer as a morsel of love from my heart and wrap it in Divine Love. Make this prayer an instrument of Your Divine Will. Amen."

At Fatima in 1917 Our Lady asked us to "consecrate" ourselves to her Immaculate Heart so she can help us.
HOLY LOVE Message: 3/12/98 - Our Lady comes as Our Lady of Fatima. She says: "Praise be Jesus. My dear children, pray with Me now for the unconverted. Today, I come to you under this title, and in these times, as I invite the world to see that My Holy Love message is a completion of My apparitions in Fatima. It was in Fatima I asked for devotion and recognition of My Immaculate Heart in the world. It is through Holy Love the world can attain entrance in this Refuge and become united to the Heart of My Son. Holy Love helps the world to fully understand My Heart as Refuge, Gateway, and purification which leads to personal sanctity." "Dear children, I have come, once again, to help you to see the times in which you live. My Son has raised His Arm of Justice. All around you are the signs in the cosmos, on earth, and under the earth. [Luke Chapter 21] Let the Holy Spirit open your eyes and your hearts, lest you be unprepared. Begin to take seriously My call to you to be holy. If you have not understood the signs around you, begin to understand the call to love that I place on your heart. Before My Son returns, this call to Holy Love will intensify and increase in every heart as God ordains."
"Dear children, today, once again, I implore you to amend your lives and drive Satan away by your efforts and through My grace."
"Dear children, when you say 'yes' to Holy Love, your consecration to My Immaculate Heart is intensified and I place a shield of grace around you that Satan cannot enter. Therefore come to Me. Surrender to Me; and I will be with you, blessing you." (The consecration to the Flame of Holy Love can be found on the "Rosary" page.
1/17/1989 (Mary @ Medjugorje) "Pray for my intentions. With this prayer, I would like to help each one of you."
__________________________________________________________________________________________ A Recent Holy Love Message
(Beginning January 1, 2012, Mary further defined the mission of her Army of Prayer.)
1/1/12 - ARMY OF PRAYER - Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus." (Our Lady is in white and gold.) She says: "Dear children, it is important that you realize that abortion is the key issue which is bringing about the demise of mankind. If abortion was defeated, the path of reconciliation between the heart of the world and God the Father would be laid bare. Then you would see wars cease, economies stabilize under righteous leadership, moral degeneration reversed, disease and famine greatly resolved and natural, as well as man-made disasters, lessen."
"For I tell you, evil begets evil. Remember, dear children, one Hail Mary said from the heart can stop wars, heal diseases, change hearts and bring victory of righteousness over evil. Therefore, I have come to mobilize an Army of Prayer - not just here, but around the world. I call it ONE ROSARY A DAY FOR LIFE. This is your Heavenly Mother's call to arms. Be united in this effort, dear children, as I call you to be. Jesus and I will help you spread 'One Rosary a Day for Life' around the world. You do not need anyone's approval to pray or to evangelize prayer. You should encourage people from every part of the world to enlist in this 'army' of prayer."
"I am always your Mother, your support, your partner in all that is good; but this Army of Prayer must be spread quickly to be effective - and, so, it is My most precious and personal project."
(For further messages about this ARMY OF PRAYER, please visit the Rosary Page.)

1/22/12 - (ON THE ANNIVERSARY OF ROE V. WADE) - St. Catherine of Sienna says: "All praise be to Jesus. When you pray, pray that the Blood of Christ's Passion stands between this president and his re-election. Too many innocent lives have been lost due to his policies."
------------------------------------------------------------
2/17/12 - Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus. My daughter, today I have come to address the faithful multitude who have followed these Messages over the decades. The time is coming when Heaven's Public Messages will cease. It is not the hour yet, but it fast approaches. As I have told My messenger, you must rely on the body of Messages given over the many years * in which Heaven has guided and directed you. Heaven will still work with the messenger here through interior Visions and Messages. These will not be shared publicly. Once in a while Heaven will send direction to the public through her, but it will not be shared verbatim - only paraphrased."
"The many graces given here will continue just as always. My presence will be continually in your midst at this site. If pilgrims gather at midnight dawning on the feast days that Heaven has honored in the past and pray the rosary, Heaven will impart the Complete Blessing of the United Hearts upon those gathered as they pray."
"My Son will appear at midnight dawning on His Feast of Divine Mercy. The public Messages have not stopped yet. I cannot tell you if this is the last midnight apparition. I do not know; only the Father and My Son know. It is They Who have sent Me here with this Message. Dear children, be at peace. Live in Holy Love."
(* Over 25,000 Messages have been given over the past 27 years.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
2/17/12 - St. Thomas Aquinas says: "Praise be to Jesus. The first and the last step in any journey of personal holiness is surrender of the free will to the Will of God. It is in this surrender that the soul accepts whatever unfolds in the present moment as part of God's Plan towards his salvation. Only then can the soul realize that God is with him under the weight of the Cross, and in every joy and victory."
---------------------------------------------------------------------
2/17/12 - Jesus is here with His Heart exposed. He says: "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate."
"My brothers and sisters, feel secure in every present moment by coming deeper into My Heart of Divine Love. You can do this most easily by living a life of Holy Love. Be witnesses and apostles of Holy Love in the world around you. Do not fear any portion of the future, for My Love is always with you.---Tonight I am blessing you with My Blessing of Divine Love."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2/18/12 -" I am your Jesus, born Incarnate. I have come today to ask all people and all nations to trust in My Mercy. My Mercy is My Provision - spiritually, physically and emotionally. No present moment comes to you by accident. All is part of My Divine Plan - My Divine Mercy - towards your own salvation and the salvation of others."
"Therefore, if every present moment is designed by Me, what have you to fear? Allow the brush strokes of My Merciful Provision to decorate your life. Begin to appreciate the beautiful design that I create in every present moment."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
2/19/12 - Jesus is here with His Heart exposed. He says: "I am your Jesus, born Incarnate. My brothers and sisters, surrender everything to Me that you hold in your heart which opposes Holy Love. Let Holy Love shine through you, and do not concern yourself for what people say or what they think or how they may act towards you. Propagate these Messages. Tonight I'm imparting to you My Blessing of Divine Love."
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2/20/12 - Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus. I have not come to you, My daughter, to make the way smooth, but to guide you around obstacles. The measure of My grace has always matched the situation of every present moment - and so it shall be."
"Those who allow themselves to be guided by My words from the past will be similarly guided. Those who do not study all Heaven has imparted to earth here will be confounded. It remains that free will must surrender to the Divine."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
2/20/12 - Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus. If there is one thing you must learn from My years of Messages here, it is that worldly credentials and popular opinions do not necessarily support the Truth. The Truth is found in Holy Love and in the hearts of those who live by it."
"It is important that you assimilate this now, for in the future much evil will be presented as much good. Even today this is true in regards to abortion and same sex marriage. Be wary of those who cannot accept criticism and those who cannot self-correct. These are the ones that let pride rule their hearts."
"The most decadent amongst you - people and nations - will suffer the greatest tribulations. The farther you are from the Heart of the Divine Will the greater your compromise of the Truth, and the longer your journey into Our United Hearts."
"Dear children, if you are not on the path of righteousness - the path of Holy Love - do not procrastinate longer. Take off the old and put on the new.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2/21/12 - Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus. Today I have come to reiterate that this Mission has been in My Arms and My Heart since its inception. It is no different today nor in any future moment. I cannot tell you the hour and moment of My last public Message - nor the date of the last Midnight Apparition. Like you, I am waiting for God's Command. Future events, as well, are not being predicted here. What I am telling you is the hour approaches when public Messages and public Apparitions will cease. If I did not have God's Permission to forewarn you, I would not have spoken to you thus."
"All that aside, I wish to address the pilgrims who come to the site. Many come as Pharisees - only to find error - seeking to pounce on their own misconceptions. Still others come seeking signs and miraculous wonders as proof of the authenticity of all that takes place here and of the Messages themselves. These are the ones that, though they believe deep in their hearts that the Mission and the Messages are genuine, they want physical evidence to substantiate their belief. God asks your faith."
"Then, there are those who believe everything, but do not live the Messages. Holy Love does not penetrate their innermost being. Holy Love does not shine through their thoughts and actions."
"The pilgrim who receives the most from his journey here, lives in the Truth of how he stands before God; that is - humility. He is simple and childlike - unpretentious, forgiving and slow to anger. He does not rash judge; rather, he carefully and prayerfully discerns."
"Take heed of what I have said today. Absorb it in your own heart. Turn away anything in your heart which is not Holy Love."
------------------------------------------------------------
2/21/12 - Blessed Mother says: "Praise be to Jesus. Dear children, [Our Lady gave a little bow as She said that] today I invite you to read and listen to every Message I impart to you as though they were My last Words you will experience on earth. This is the way it must be, and it is the way it should have been from the beginning."
"Each Message is given for your welfare and offers guidance, informs, even redirects your efforts. Do not always wait for the next Message. One day there will not be a 'next Message'. Concentrate on and appreciate what I am giving you today."

A previous Holy Love message about the importance of making an informed VOTE:
10/5/2000 - "No one can claim to be My friend who votes in favor of the grave sin of abortion. Therefore, be educated when you vote as to whom you are giving power. The battle lines have been drawn and the choices have been made clear. Satan seeks the destruction of your country and wants you to elect his candidates who would perpetuate abortion."
"Solemnly I tell you, the cup of My Justice already overflows for choices that have been already made. Only My Mother's Sorrowing Immaculate Heart holds back the arm of vindication. Therefore, as My apostles, do not allow the abomination of abortion to continue. Make certain your precious vote moves against Satan's kingdom, and for life. For I tell you, your vote is not only cast on earth, but in My Heart - the final Judge of your eternity."
"Please understand many nations have fallen from power because the soul of the nation became decadent. Your country is already slipping militarily from prominence. This will continue and spread to the economic system if evil is not overturned in this election that is upcoming. Therefore, make it your duty to pray that God's Will be done in this election."
