Prophecy Meditations
Topic: Prophecy Meditation

Vision and Message to Louise Nov. 27,2007

SUPERCRITICAL!
MESSAGE via L. , V+J
November 27, 2007- -11:50 A.M.

L. began to receive a vision and words from God and testing the spirits said,
"Jesus, please cover me with Your Most Precious Blood." (and again ...other
prayers of testing)

She was shown vision of very small one story homes that looked like
hovels..(very dumpy and plain) where people were being forced to live..and saw
absolutely NO Churches of any kind anywhere ...all had appeared to be completely
destroyed and no where to be found. Then God the Father told her (as if time
had already progressed and as though much has been taking place) to not look
into the eyes of the managers of stores because all will be very devious and
evil people planted and not to be trusted..and then God the Father went into
further and greater detail with explanations..of after even more progression and
passage of time.

Then your Father---God continued with words for the world:

"Very, very VERY soon you will be under complete control of evil men! All
businesses except those under their control WILL CLOSE. Those that remain open
will carry products made or manufactured by people NOT of Me. All inventory
will carry the 'chip'.

If you do not accept the 'chip' or 'mark of the beast' you will not be
permitted to buy or sell ANYTHING- - -nothing at all.

Now you will see NO Catholic or Christian Churches anywhere for all will be
destroyed. My people- - - remnant - - -followers- - - will be forced
underground as in the early Church.

Prepare mentally, physically, emotionally and especially spiritually for
these days are extremely near at hand.

Stores are already carrying only imports from a country NOT OF ME! There is
no longer any sign of 'JESUS' in Christmas. It has become a Pagan holiday!!!

I am about to send a treacherous WAKE-UP call! Wait! Watch! See! I, as a
Just, Loving Father, am about to severly punish My wayward children.

Martial Law is slowly but surely being imposed upon you by millions of evil,
satan followers. Your precious freedom will be gone forever.Choose as you
please! I WILL TAKE CARE OF THE REST!!!

Amen, My word is truth- -YOU'LL SEE and extremely soon

 

 

 

Message From Mother Mary thru Lec November 23, 2007

Message Received From Mother Mary
November 23, 2007
7:25 am

After praying the Lord's Prayer, Hail Mary, Glory Be and the Act of Contrition,
I asked Mother Mary for her message. The following is what I heard from the
small, still, inner voice:

Son, imagine yourself in the position of one who does not believe in God much
less in His words. What would become of them when the final reckoning and call
come, when they find themselves before the judgment seat of Christ with almost
nothing to justify their soul destiny which is entirely not to our liking? Who
will call their attention to the fact that the events as prophesied are in the
verge of fulfillment? Who has the courage and the great loving heart to
approach them in their unbelief that the time for the final call is nearing its
term?

Yes, the Illumination of the Soul is at hand but do they know of this great
spiritual event? Millions are aware but the billions are not while some of them
hear from time to time but instead choose to ignore as simply a mad ranting of a
lunatic.

Seeing the situation in the world, God is inclined to push through with this
forced reckoning as every one on the planet will not be spared from experiencing
this forthcoming event in the very near future called the GREAT WARNING TO THE
SOUL.

Each and everyone will see their true standing in God's eyes.
Eyes will be opened to the truth but some will continue to walk in the way that
their free will choice has ensnared them to. It is the DAY OF SEPARATION.
Prepare for it. Make sure that the soul will not suffer torment in those
critical moments by recalling all unconfessed sins.

GO TO CONFESSION.
AVAIL OF THIS WHILE THERE IS STILL TIME.

Message Reception Ended : 7:45 am Duration : 20 minutes

Message to J.N.S.R.Sept,22,23,24,2007

 

Call the Holy Spirit



September 22, 23, 24, 2007

 

JNSR:  My God, please talk to me if you desire to keep us informed.

 

JESUS:  The Lord speaks to you if you call Him with all your heart.  The wind blows where it will and stops when it will.  How do you expect to capture it for yourselves alone if you do not want to hear what it has to say to you?

 

The Spirit of God speaks to you and you accuse Him when you do not even listen to Him to make everything run better.  Your words are lost like a swarm of bees around an unknown hive, without finding your way.  So what shall I do with you, all of you!......

 

You are always late in everything that God demands of you, and anger overcomes you.  Beware of the time that goes too quickly and that you cannot recapture.  Now is the time to organize all new things.  Here is the beginning and the start.  Do not scatter, watch the events.  You must all gather together, even beyond your opinions, your habits.

 

Time unfolds in favor of the one who obeys Me without thinking of what he is leaving behind, for everything will happen very quickly in order to deliver My people who, every day, falls a little further into the refuge of the Evil one.  That trap is diabolical because it really looks like a refuge.  It is not so!

 

You will soon see it, complete and attractive, and it will stand before all eyes, hungry to obtain even more money, more profit.  You are all warned of this.  Flee the temptation, it is worldwide and can only grow and stand with the avidity of men and women who still think that money will save the world.

 

Unfortunate people!  Be not attached to material goods, to all that glitters, like stars, on this Earth.  All is an illusion and can draw children towards the worst.....

 

You will soon see this worldwide system put in place.  As for My book which I have requested, God's will prevails and you will see it completed.  Only time is a factor.  All will be done in its time, for the Lord is the Master of Time.  God already has His plan realized in the Heaven of Eternal Glory.  All I made you write and will continue to tell you, is already in God's thought.  And all will be accomplished as God thinks...... and My children will follow the Master of History.

St. Bernard of Clairvaux, Abbot and Doctor

"The Eucharist is that love which surpasses all loves in Heaven and on earth."  (St. Bernard)

 

 

Our children's Sunday School classes were presenting their end of the year program for the congregation - telling about the life of Jesus.

When it came to the part about Jesus' miracles, one little boy said, "Yes, Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead!" The teacher urged him to tell us more.

He said, "Well, Jesus told them to open the tomb, and then He said, 'Lazarus, come out!' And it's a good thing he didn't just say 'Come out!' because there would have been a stampede of dead guys."

 

Mother Teresa

I believe that God has created each soul, that that soul belongs to God, and that each soul has to find God in its own lifetime and enter into His life. That is what is important.

All of us need to seek God and find Him.

 

Meditations by Padre Pio

All human ideas, from wherever they come, can be both good and bad. One must learn to assimilate all the good and offer it to God, eliminating the bad.

 

 

Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

 

God must be the source of the humble and show it through their resources

 

"Before undertaking a task great or small, before making decisions, before beginning a journey, the humble will acknowledge their dependence on God and will invoke His guidance and His blessing on all their enterprises. Even though they be placed above others by vocation, or by the will of the people, they will never cease to recognize that God has made of one blood all the nations that dwell on the earth. If they are very rich they will not be `defenders of the rights of the poor' without unloading their riches in their aid."

 

St. Faustina's diary  http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html  -

 

When we began to share the wafer, a sincere and mutual love reigned among us. Mother Superior [Irene] expressed this wish to me: "Sister, the works of God proceed slowly, so do not be in a hurry." In general, the sisters sincerely wished me great love, which is that which I desire above all. I saw that these wishes truly came from their hearts, except for one sister, who had a concealed malice in her wishes, although this did not cause me much pain, for my soul was pervaded by God. Yet this enlightened me as to why God communicates so little with a soul of this kind, and I learned that such a soul is always seeking itself, even in holy things. Oh, how good the Lord is in not letting me go astray! I know that He will guard me, even jealously, but only as long as I remain little, because it is with such that the great Lord likes to commune. As to proud souls, He watches them from afar and opposes them.       (1440)

 

When I was apologizing to the Lord Jesus for a certain action of mine which, a little later, turned out to be imperfect, Jesus put me at ease with these words: My daughter, I reward you for the purity of your intention which you had at the time when you acted. My Heart rejoiced that you had My love under consideration at the time you acted, and that in so distinct a way; and even now you still derive benefit from this; that is, from the humiliation. Yes, My child, I want you to always have such great purity of intention in the very least things you undertake.      (1566)

Quote of the Day O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to

thee. -Words on the Miraculous Medal revealed to Catherine Laboure

 

Today's Tidbit The apparitions of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal occurred three times in 1830 at the motherhouse chapel of the Daughters of Charity on Rue de Bac in Paris, France. During these apparitions, Mary commissioned a medal honoring her Immaculate Conception and is now known as the Miraculous Medal. The first medals were minted within two years after the final apparition.

 

 

Medjugorje Day By Day Nov 28 - FIND SOLACE IN PRAYER

 

Message of November 25, 2005

 

"Dear children! Also today I call you to pray, pray, pray until prayer becomes life for you. Little children, at this time, in a special way, I pray before God to give you the gift of faith. Only in faith will you discover the joy of the gift of life that God has given you. Your heart will be joyful thinking of eternity. I am with you and love you with a tender love. Thank you for having responded to my call."

 

"The devotion to the Eucharist is the most noble because it has God as its object; it is the most profitable for salvation, because It gives us the Author of Grace; it is the sweetest, because the Lord is Sweetness Itself." (Pope St. Pius X)

COWBOY LIFE

A tough old cowboy once counseled his grandson that if he wanted to live  a long life, the secret was to sprinkle a little gunpowder on his oatmeal every morning.

The grandson did this religiously and he lived to the age of 93.  When he died, he left 14 children, 28 grandchildren, 35 great  grandchildren and a fifteen foot hole in the wall of the crematorium.

 Pope John Paul II -

 

On March 22nd, 1995 Vicka accompanied 350 wounded and crippled Croatian soldiers to Rome where the Pope gave them a private audience. She was the translator (Italian-Croatian) and the Pope immediately recognized her: "Are you not Vicka from Medjugorje?" he asked her. Vicka then offered him a rosary saying: "I guess you have many rosaries already, but this one is special as it was blessed by the Gospa during an apparition." The Pope said to her: "Pray to the Madonna for me, I pray for you." He prayed over her a long time & blessed her. http://www.medjugorje.org/pope.htm

 

Mother Teresa  -

 

Through prayer I become one in love with Christ. I realize that praying to Him is loving Him.

For me, prayer means being united to the will of God twenty four hours a day, to live for Him, through Him, and with Him.

 

Meditations by Padre Pio - We must become accustomed to the sufferings which Jesus will be pleased to send us. Jesus, who cannot bear to keep you in a state of affliction at length, will come to help and comfort you, by instilling new courage in your spirit.

 

 

 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

 

Blessed are the merciful!

 

"Humility as it relates to others is a golden mean between blind reverence on the one hand and an overbearing insolence on the other. Humble people are not rigid exacters of things to which they have no undoubted right; they are always ready to overlook faults of others knowing that they have so many themselves. Neither are they greatly provoked at those slights which put vain persons out of patience, knowing that as we show mercy to others so shall we receive mercy from God."

St. Faustina's diary  http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html  - When, at the beginning of my religious life, following the novitiate, I began to exercise myself particularly in humility, the humiliations that God sent me were not enough for me. And so, in my excessive zeal, I looked for more of them on my own, and I often represented myself to my superiors other than I was in reality and spoke of miseries of which I had no notion. But a short time later, Jesus gave me to know that humility is only the truth. From that time on, I changed my ideas, faithfully following the light of Jesus. I learned that if a soul is with Jesus, He will not permit it to err.       (1503)

 

Dailys - http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html -

 

Quote of the Day Guard your eyes that they may not look upon anything contrary to purity; your ears, that they may not listen to evil conversation; your mind, by banishing from it all suggestive thoughts; your heart, by stifling impure desires at their very birth. -St. John Baptist de la Salle

 

Today's Tidbit The word "Cathedral" is derived from the Greek word "cathedra," which means chair. The cathedral of a diocese is the seat of the bishop and is the principal Church of the diocese.

 

 

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.

 -

 

NOV - 27 YOU ARE MINE

 

Our Lady gave this message of warmth to the two young locutionists:

 

I hold all of you in my arms. You are mine. I need your prayers so that you may be all mine. I desire to be all yours and for you to be all mine. I receive all your prayers. I receive them with joy (Locutionists Jelena & Mirijana February 23, 1984).

 

And from Psalm 4:

 

I will both lie down and sleep in peace; For you alone, O Lord, made me lie down in safety.

 

Psalm 4:8

 

Reflection:

 

Right after World War II, Europe was flooded with homeless, hungry children. Thousands of scared and frightened kids were housed in refugee camps. They were lovingly cared for and adequately housed and fed. But they could not sleep; they were restless and unable to relax.

 

A psychologist had an idea. After the children were put to bed, they were each given a loaf of bread to hold. If they wanted more to eat, more was provided, but this particular "bedtime bread" was not to be eaten, it was just to hold. The bread produced a miracle: the children dozed off, assured that they would have something to eat tomorrow. That assurance provided calm and restful sleep.

 

The Blessed Mother gives such assurance. She will place bread in our hands tonight. It will be there tomorrow. What we have to hold onto is her Son. We can be at peace.

 

In Psalm 23 we hear, "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want." Other translations say, "The Lord is my shepherd, therefore I shall lack nothing." Our faith is based upon trusting the Shepherd, resting in his arms, and knowing that we will be nourished and fed. We are safe with the bread of trust in our hands.

 

Application:

 

"I hold all of you in my arms," the Mother of God says today. "You are mine. I need your prayers so that you may be all mine." Today, offer all your prayers to Mary for her intentions.

 

Message of November 25, 2006

"Dear children! Also today I call you to pray, pray, pray. Little

children, when you pray you are close to God and He gives you the

desire for eternity. This is a time when you can speak more about God

and do more for God. Therefore, little children, do not resist but

permit Him to lead you, to change you and to enter into your life. Do

not forget that you are travelers on the way toward eternity.

Therefore, little children, permit God to lead you as a shepherd leads

his flock. Thank you for having responded to my call."

 "The whole world" should "come together to venerate and adore Christ the

King hidden under the Sacramental species. Thus by sermons preached, by public adoration of the Blessed Sacrament exposed and by solemn processions, men unite in paying homage to Christ, whom God has given them for their King." "When once men recognize, both in private and in public life, that Christ is King, society will at last receive the great blessings of real liberty, well-ordered discipline, peace and harmony" (Pope Pius XI).

Honor in Mary, at the foot of the Tabernacle, all the mysteries of her life,

for all these were stations, as it were, leading to the Cenacle.  In Mary's

life there you will find the model and the consolation of your own life.  In

the Cenacle, this august Queen kneels as adoratrix and servant of the Most

Blessed Sacrament: kneel at your Mother's side and pray with her, and in so doing, you will continue her Eucharistic Life on earth." (St. Peter Julian Eymard)

Dear Friends,

 

I would like to share with you some quotes from Fr. Zlatko Sudac, and Mirjana Soldo regarding the importance of living in this present moment.

In the 1999 Winter issue of Medjugorje Magazine, Fr. Zlatko, who belongs to the diocese of Krk in Croatia, was interviewed by the editors of Medjugorje Magazine. Here are some excerpts from that interview:

 

"...God does not love you in the past or in the future. He only loves you right now. If you always live in the past or in the future, you will never experience the love of God."

 

"...I asked myself and I ask you, 'Do I ever live in this moment? Do I ever live in this present moment?' I understood that the answer was no. I always feel guilt about the past and I carry concern in my heart about the future. It's the truth that I don't live in the present moment. But God is an experience of now. God is something to experience now. You can immerse yourself in Him only in this present moment."

 

"You're seeking spirituality. Do you know how to tell how spiritual you are? When the amount of your spirituality is equivalent to the amount of truth which you can endure about yourself without escaping it, this is a sign of deep spirituality. That's how transformation of the heart happens. Only truth can free us. And then we'll be true adorers of the Lord. We will adore the Lord in spirit and in truth."

 

Take care and God bless, Mike (Sumner, WA) - from  http://www.iipg-queenofpeace.org

REAL FATHER

As the family was sitting down to dinner, Jennifer, who was in kindergarten at a Christian school, turned to her younger brother and then pointed at their dad. "That's not your real father," she said, startling the whole family.

"Yes, he is!" Andy said.

"No, he's not," Jennifer said. "God is your heavenly father." Then pointing at their dad again, she said, "That's your homely father!"

Pope John Paul II -

In a private conversation with the visionary Mirjana Soldo the Pope said: "If I were not pope I would already be in Medjugorje confessing."(1987) http://www.medjugorje.org/pope.htm

 

Mother Teresa  -

Who is the church? You and I.

The church are those who follow Jesus.

 

Meditations by Padre Pio - There are such sublime joys and such deep sufferings that words cannot express them. Silence is the last resort of the soul in ineffable joy as in extreme oppression.

 

 

 Archbishop Fulton Sheen -

 

No one is better than the next!

 

"The psychological reason for the modern fondness for news which deflates others or brings out the evil in their lives, is to solace uneasy consciences which are already laden with guilt. By finding others who apparently are more evil than we, we falsely believe that we are somehow better `than the rest of men' (Luke 18: 11)."

 

St. Faustina's diary  http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html  -

 

However, I asked my confessor what to do: whether I should continue to suffer this for the sake of sinners or ask the superiors for an exception by way of milder food. He decided that I should ask the superiors for milder food. And thus I followed his directions, seeing that this humiliation was more pleasing to God.       (1429)

 

Today, the love of God is transporting me into the other world. I am all immersed in love; I love and feel that I am loved, and with full consciousness I experience this. My soul is drowning in the Lord, realizing the great Majesty of God and its own littleness; but through this knowledge my happiness increases... This awareness is so vivid in the soul, so powerful and, at the same time, so sweet.       (1500)

 

I never cringe before anyone. I can't bear flattery, for humility is nothing but the truth. There is no cringing in true humility. Although I consider myself the least in the whole convent, on the other hand, I enjoy the honor of being the bride of Christ. Little matter that often I hear people say that I am proud, for I know that human judgment does not discern the motives for our actions.       (1502)

Quote of the Day If you wish to prevent all evil thoughts, let your eyes be modestly reserved, and make a league with them never to desire to look upon anything which is not permitted you to desire. -St. Gregory of Nyssa

 

Today's Tidbit The Solemnity of Christ the King is always celebrated on the final Sunday of the Liturgical Year. This feast reminds us that Jesus ultimate place is reigning over heaven and earth at the right hand of the Father. This theme is highlighted by the readings of preparation of the end times where Christ will come again that are read in the final weeks of the Liturgical Year.

 

 

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.

 

Nov 26 - SURRENDER YOURSELVES TO ME

 

Today Our Lady speaks of one of the primary messages of Medjugorje:

 

Dear children, I wish to tell you that I have chosen this parish. I guard it in my hands like a little flower that does not want to die.

 

I beseech you to surrender yourselves to me so that I can present you as a gift to God, fresh and without sin. Satan has destroyed part of my plan and wants to possess all of it. Pray that he does not succeed, for I wish you for myself so that I may continue offering you to God (Weekly Message August 1, 1985).

 

And from Paul's first letter to the Corinthians:

 

For whoever was called in the Lord as a slave is a freed person belonging to the Lord, just as whoever was free when called is a slave of Christ (1 Cor 7:22).

 

Reflection:

 

There is glory and joy in surrender to God. When we surrender to other masters we are crushed, shamed, and defeated. But when we give our lives over to God, we are glorified and find victory. An unknown poet knew the honor in this submission: "Make me a captive, Lord, and then I shall be free."

 

When we abandon ourselves totally to God, we stand before him with nothing: nothing more, nothing less, and nothing other than his Divine Will. Richard Baxter, a great religious writer, died with these words on his lips: "Lord, what you will, where you will, and when you will."

 

When we submit to God's complete and total control, we become "God-intoxicated", filled with his own life. There is no other way but the way of abandonment and surrender, as the Virgin emphasizes today. It can be hard, but it is essential to a fulfilled life.

 

Application:

 

In prayer today, live Our Lady's message: "I beseech you to surrender yourselves your selves to me, so that I can present you a gift to God."
