“My child, watch and pray, then pray some more! Ready your lamps, trim the wicks and do not let apathy extinguish your flame. Instead, keep the light of faith burning brightly so that in the darkness the lost will find their way home. You do not know what is coming. Only grace can help you, but I have poured out grace abundantly; those who ask will receive, shaken down and overflowing. Open your hands and I will fill them. Then, knowing there is no end to what I give, go therefore and do the same. Let grace spill from your abundance to assist those who do not know how to ask. My child, do not tire of praying for the lost. Many are those who have prayed for you. In gratitude for the mercy shown to you, bring to my merciful heart each soul and especially those most in need of my mercy.”

Lord Jesus, this worthless sinner has much to be thankful for. By your grace I offer you all those whose hearts are far from you and all the lukewarm souls that anger you so much. Jesus I trust in you. Save souls! Amen.

“My child, can anyone be surprised at the consequences that will befall the human race on account of sin? Yet many are blind to the signs; many are blind to their sins. Let those who pray do so with renewed fervor. Let them go into mourning over what is coming to the earth. Is it time for festivity when suffering and calamity surround you? My child, subdue your life as in the days of old when they put on sackcloth and sat in ashes. The destruction due to sin will be the cause of many tears. The only joy will be that which my faithful ones have in the hope of the kingdom. My child, the trial has been shortened because of the prayers and sacrifices of my faithful ones. Keep your eyes on the hope that is contained in the resurrection. One can only climb the hill to Calvary one step at a time. The resurrection awaits. Keep this thought firmly before you as you carry the cross to the crucifixion.”

Jesus in Mary, give us your strength, courage, and hope as we climb the hill to Calvary with you. Keep before our eyes always the joy and hope of the resurrection. Jesus we trust in you and offer you the gratitude of the Gloriana wrapped in the love of the Blessed Mother for having shortened the time of trial. Help us to do more for the sake of the souls you love so much. Amen.

“My beloved, even now, at this late hour, if my children turn to me with fasting and weeping, throwing themselves on my mercy, contrite and sorrowful, it would mitigate to a great degree the chastisement due to sin. What sin has purchased I would refund for the sake of those many repentant hearts. That is why, my child, I call you to fast and pray for souls. Have you done enough yet? Can you say that you have? My child, much depends on the number of souls who turn to me with contrite hearts. Pray, pray, pray for conversions. There are too few praying! Too many will not be converted. Time is short. Give me every moment of your life to do with as I please. I will use it to purchase more souls. This is a great mystery, tied to the gift of free will. Give me all, my child. Hold nothing back. Your God implores you. Do not refuse, for much depends on those who will abandon all to the Lord of Life.”

Jesus, Lord of Life, take my miserable offering and use it as you wish magnified in the love and merits of our Mother. I have so little to offer, but I give it to you. In your mercy receive it as you received the offering of the widow with her small coins. Jesus I trust in you. Save souls!

“My child, prepare! Fast and pray, for the hour is near. Do not be distracted, for even in the midst of your daily duty you can lift your mind and heart to pray for souls and for a final outpouring of Divine Mercy over the world. You see how world events, both natural and man-made are escalating? The time is upon you. And now the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified once more. Do not despair—for a glorious resurrection awaits on the other side of the tomb. Believe, hope, trust, and do not stop praying!”

Lord Jesus, I believe, hope, and trust in you. May your mercy be a flood over the whole world. May sinners be saved, that your kingdom may come. Amen.

“My child, pray! For a silence and a sadness is coming to my people. My children have turned against me. I am betrayed once again into the hands of the enemy. Who will stay with me at the foot of the cross? Who will run and scatter? Little child, pray for grace, the grace to stay at the foot of the cross with our Mother. A day will come when all that is familiar will be changed or gone. I say this not to cause you anxiety, but to prepare your heart for the coming trial. Remember always that I am with you. Remember the prayer, and pray it often. Pray it with my Mother at the foot of the cross. Through her tears and anguish she never lost faith—’Jesus I trust in you.’”

Jesus I trust in you. Grant us every grace we need to cling to our Mother at the foot of the cross. Do not let us abandon you, but in the love and power of the Holy Spirit, give us strength, courage, and hope. Jesus I trust in you! Amen.

(Note: I believe this refers to the coming persecution of the Church, especially the clergy. The silence and sadness refers to the coming absence of the Mass and the Sacraments. Let us remember to cling to our Mother and keep the faith: Jesus we trust in you!)

“My child, all around you see discord and violence. The evil one has many servants to do his bidding, and he has duped a good many more. But you, my child, must not be afraid. The powers at work in the world today will not triumph. The victory is mine as it was on Calvary. The day will come—and soon—when there will be no doubt about my glory. That day will be terrifying, even to those of faith. I tell you, hold firm. Be steadfast. Repeat unendingly the prayer you have been given for just this time: ‘Jesus I trust in you.’ I will be listening for this prayer and will carry those souls in the wound of my pierced heart. Child I tell you these things so that you may have hope. Place your trust I me and be at peace.”

Lord Jesus I trust in you. Lord Jesus I trust in you. Lord Jesus I trust in you. Have mercy! Amen.

(Since posting this I have come to understand that the Divine Mercy prayer–but especially the image–acts as the lamb’s blood did on the lintels and doorposts of the Israelites before the Passover–a sign of protection.  We cannot overestimate the power of this prayer and image now and in the time to come. God of mercy, may your name be praised forever for this unimaginable gift! Jesus I trust in you!)

“My beloved, you do not know what is coming. Pray very hard that your faith may not fail you. My child, lean not on your own strength but, in trust, cling to me. Then I will be your strength. Child, there is much to come and much will be demanded of you. Learn to listen for the promptings of the Spirit, for he longs to guide his faithful ones to a safe harbor. My child, place your trust in me and be at peace. Shalom.”

Sweet Jesus, beloved one of my heart, strengthen your faithful ones for the time of trial. Only in you are we strong; in you our strength is infinite. Holy Spirit teach us to hear you clearly and to obey promptly. Jesus I trust in you. Amen.

“My child, you do not know the evil plots that are being hatched against my faithful ones. If you knew, you would scarcely believe it, for the venom comes from the source of evil itself. There is much to come, but my children must remain steadfast in their faith. Pray for strength, not just for yourself, but for all those whose faith is weak. Pray that you and they will not be put to the test. My child, receive the sacraments often, for they will strengthen you. Be at peace, for these things will not last. I am near.”

Jesus, help us! Angels and saints, pray for us and strengthen our faith. May we not be put to the test, O Lord, but may all who are tested be strengthened in faith, courage, and fortitude. Holy Spirit, be with us always. Amen.

“My child, a time is coming—and soon—when you will be asked to make preparations—for the Church is going to disappear from visible sight. My child, this will be a great sadness for you, but I myself will strengthen and lead you. Do not despair, but let the Holy Spirit, poured out over my faithful ones, sustain you in hope. The time is near, my child, for the Son to be glorified. I come with fire.”

Lord have mercy! May your faithful ones be strengthened for the days ahead. Blessed Mother, St. Joseph, saints and angels, do not leave us. Amen.

I asked the Lord for a Scripture passage to confirm this and heard in my heart “Nehmiah 2:13”, which says, “I rode out at night by the Valley Gate, passed by the Dragon Spring and came to the Dung Gate, observing how the walls of Jerusalem lay in ruins and its gates had been eaten out by fire.” (Jerusalem is representative of the Church, and here it is in ruins. The Lord’s message above was, “I come with fire.” Here in this passage the gates of the city have been eaten out by fire.) Thank you Jesus for this confirmation. Lord have mercy on us all, on the Church, and on the whole world. Amen.

Dream: A couple of weeks ago I dreamed of a mushroom cloud, that an atomic bomb was exploded very near to where I was. Lord Jesus Help us! May your will alone be done in all the world. Amen.

1 John 4: 4 You belong to God, children, and you have conquered them, for the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.

“My beloved, keep this firmly in mind when you are tempted to despair. Memorize this verse and let it strengthen you in the time of trial when the enemy will appear to be winning. The God of the resurrection lives in you, my child-Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. Then what can disturb you? Stand firm, solid in your faith. Trust in him who gave sight to the blind and called Lazarus from the tomb. Remain at his feet, rest your head on his lap and your loving Father will tenderly stroke your head as an only child. Little one, do not be afraid. I am with you and I love you.”

Thanks be to God! You are the one true God, giver of all hope and joy. Jesus, I trust in you. Father, I love you. Holy Spirit, give me all the gifts I need and that you desire to give me for the sake of the kingdom. Amen.
