Prayers from the Proper of TLM today:

“By the sign of the Cross, deliver us from our enemies, O Thou our God”. (Communion: verse)

STAND by us, O Lord our God, and do Thou,who makest us rejoice in honor of the holy Cross, defend us evermore by its help”. (Post Communion verse)

Church of H.S. TRue crossThe feastday:

Today is a very special Feastday. Today we celebrate the triumph and the power of the Cross.

It was on the 14th September that we commemorate St Helena finding the true Cross in 4th century. 300 years later, after a part of it was taken by the Persians, a Christian king as a result of a battle, reclaimed it. He processed with it to the Church of the holy Sepulchre, to which it belonged. It was a great occasion and He was dressed in all his kingly splendour. But when he was nearly there, he stopped and could not move. He was stiff and Cross was too heavy. It was only after he had humbled himself by pitting on the robes of a poor person, that he was able to proceed and carry the cross into The place where it belonged. This day, also happened to be on the 14th September.

“…We need not be surprised, my dear brethren, at the honor which the Church pays to this holy wood, which obtains for us so many graces and so many benefits. We see that the Church makes the Sign of the Cross in all her ceremonies, in the administration of all the Sacraments.

Why is that? My friends, this is why. It is because all our prayers and all the Sacraments draw from the Cross their power and their virtue. During the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the priest makes the Sign of the Cross over and over again. God desires that we may never lose the memory of it as the surest means of our salvation and the most formidable instrument for repelling the Devil. …”

God’s Plan: Then and Now

The Cross was God’s Plan for our Salvation. He accepted his Son’s Sacrifice. To the world he seemed a loser, a criminal… The devil was out to get Him from the very beginning  of His Life. He thought He had won. The spiritual leaders of the time – the “elite” thought they had succeeded. He was a thorn in their side. But the Victory and the Triumph was Christ’s. He paid the price for our Salvation. 

The gates of Hell did not prevail then, and they will not prevail today, in these times.

The Cross is a sign of a Christian. We take up our crosses like our Saviour did. We must be humble and willing to do as our dear Lord and Saviour did.

The carrying of the Cross

Jesus stands by us today, as we carry the many crosses imposed on us by ungodly men, who are in collaboration with sacred servants of his who are Judases.

At the Offertory today we prayed:

By the sign of the holy Cross, O Lord, protect Thy people from the wiles of all our enemies, that we may be able to do Thee worthy service, and that our sacrifice may be well-pleasing in Thy sight”

In the Gospel today  

(St. John, 12. 31-36) We read Jesus’ words :

“: Now is the judgment of the world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all things to Myself …  Yet a little while, the light is among you. Walk whilst you have the light, that the darkness overtake you not. And he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth. Whilst you have the light, believe in the light; that you may be the children of light.”

gates of hell will not prevail

“Each of these powers will be connected … to control the global wealth and population.”

The four parts of the world I refer to are the four big empires – the US, Russia, Europe and China

24 September 2013 @ 11:18am; Message 0920
My dearly beloved daughter, the four parts of the world I refer to are the four big empires – the US, Russia, Europe and China. All prophecies foretold will involve these powers, around which all the upheavals in religious and political structures will occur.

Syria and Egypt, through the unrest in their countries, will become the catalysts for a greater war, which will involve the four great powers. Each of these powers will be connected in order to create a unified regime, which will be used to control the global wealth and population.

The religious war will be central to this control and the appointed leaders in My Christian Churches will be overcome and destroyed in preparation for the beast, who will control all four empires. None of the rulers, who defy the Word of God or who try to destroy His children, will be given the authority by God to take, by force, those whose names are in the Book of the Living. And while I speak of Christians and the need for them to remain true to Me, I also refer to the Jews because their protector, Michael the Archangel, will watch over them and help them to withstand the persecution which they, as God’s chosen people, will also have to endure.

God’s Plan has been created and all the angels and saints in Heaven prepare now, to help Me in My Mission to unite all and protect those who love Me from the great deceit, which has been created to fool the world. Never before has the wickedness against God been so co-ordinated by the human race as it is today. Never before has mortal man been capable of inflicting so much suffering, through the seizure of power in order to control, as it has at this moment of time in history. The great persecution against God’s children, created by Satan with the willing support of evil, power hungry men and women, in positions of great power, is unfolding before your eyes. Yet, many of you cannot see because you have been fooled.

Your Jesus

Jesus to Mankind Crusade Prayer Meeting on Wed. 16th Feb. 2022

Prayer Theme: Protection during the Warning and against the antichrist                              (Groups A&G)

Bible: 2 Samuel 12: 26-30

Book of Truth: 17th Sept., 2013

Thoughts: The King needed to capture the city. Joab went first, then David followed with his soldiers to capture the city. David took the crown and put it on his own head. He dealt out his justice, then returned with all his soldiers to Jerusalem. In other words, God wins the war and, we  his disciples will return to “Jerusalem” ( the New Jerusalem!!!)

We needed to hear this message today. many of us were feeling a bit –  some of us – a lot- battered from persecution! But God wins the war! We know that, but sometimes, when we are down, and it seems like the enemy is winning, we need to be reminded. It cheered us up immensely!

The Reading from the Book of Truth supplemented this reading, describing the final battle where many people will turn against their brothers who are  those loyal to Jesus.

Bible Reading

2 Samuel 12: 26-30

End of the Ammonite War.

26h Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and captured that royal city.
27 He sent messengers to David to say: “I have fought against Rabbah and have taken the water-city.
28 Therefore, assemble the rest of the soldiers, join the siege against the city, and capture it, lest I be the one to capture the city and mine be the name people mention, not yours.”
29 So David assembled the rest of the soldiers, went to Rabbah, fought against it, and captured it.
30 He took the crown of Milcom from the idol’s head, a talent of gold in weight, with precious stones; this crown David wore on his own head. He also brought out a great amount of spoil from the city.
31 He deported the people of the city and set them to work with saws, iron picks, and iron axes, or put them to work at the brickmold. He dealt thus with all the cities of the Ammonites. Then David and his whole army returned to Jerusalem.

Reading from the Book of Truth

I come for you to take you to My Father. I come to fulfill His Divine Will and to complete the Covenant

17 September 2013 @ 10:45pm; Message 0913

My dearly beloved daughter, when you find this Work difficult and hesitate to give the world bad news, you must understand that you are only the messenger. You are an instrument of the Holy God, the Most High and it is your duty to respond to His Call. Your obedience is essential and you must not fear the repercussions, which may befall you as a prophet of the Lord.

All events foretold have been laid down in the beginning and form part of God’s Plan to complete the Covenant to gather His children, finally, so that they can live in harmony in His Divine Will. The final battle between My Father’s hierarchy and the evil one means that many people, who leave themselves exposed, will become infested by sin and will turn against their brothers who remain loyal to God.

When the battle is being fought many wicked atrocities will be carried out, by the enemies of God, against His beloved children. But as I have told you before, they can only go so far, because they do not have the power to destroy humanity, although they believe that they do.

Take comfort, all of you, because My Father will intervene with the wicked actions of those who want to control all nations and He will strike them dead those who dare to hurt His children. Many poor souls will suffer during such persecutions, but My Father is ever-merciful. His Power cannot be touched. His Hand is Almighty. He can, at any time, cast away His enemies. But the prophecies foretold, and which must take place before My Second Coming, are a reality. They will unfold in a way, which may not be obvious to all of you, but know this.

Prayer is your weapon. Prayer will provide you with the armour you need to defeat the evil one. Prayer will dilute the impact of war, suffering and every kind of persecution inflicted upon the human race by the enemies of God. Prayer will save you and all those for whom you pray. Your prayers will destroy evil and when the Great Day comes you will cry tears of joy when you witness the New Generation, those billions of people who have been salvaged because of your response to My Call.

While My Messages bring a mixture of sadness, fear, frustration – they also bring hope because they create much conversion. My Father’s Plan is unknown to most of you. What you need to understand is this. His Plan will destroy all His enemies. By allowing all these trials to take place, He will free the human race, at last, from its bondage to sin. Be patient. Be calm. For soon joy, love and peace will finally be yours for eternity.

I come only because we are as one – one holy family in God’s Kingdom. I come for you to take you to My Father. I come to fulfill His Divine Will and to complete the Covenant. I come to bring you the Truth.

Your loving Saviour

Jesus Christ
