A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul

Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.


Messenger: Include Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center in 6:20 prayers.


Messenger: Please pray most fervently for 2 very urgent intentions! Please!


Messenger: Jesus wants us to read and study these messages.


Excerpt from September 17, 2000 Daily Message

Messenger: There was a young vibrant priest that was dying of cancer, and several other priests that many knew here in Cincinnati died. I heard several different people say, "What is it with all these priests dying?" or something similar to this. In my anguish to think of a chosen priest dying, I was praying to Jesus and He told me this.

Jesus speaks: My child, you do not treasure the gift given in your holy priests. So you think that they may die, and then you begin to see what you may lose.

My child, the priests are dying. From very large parishes and schools there are few or no vocations. Do you think God would not give you holy priests to carry on His work and give you the Eucharist?

I say to you, My child, are Catholic boys' high schools preparing boys just for the world?

Are your Catholic schools and churches encouraging young people who have a vocation to follow it?

Do priests and sisters model their love of this great calling before the young girls and boys?

Oh, they say, 

"Oh Fr_____ is dying."

"Oh the children are dying."

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT!

I give you the prayers in the prayer manual to pray for your Church and the priests and the world. 

How do you expect to have holy priests?

YOU MUST PRAY.

I have instructed how you should pray.

Quit complaining. Do something about it.

How you spend your time and money tells you what is important to you.

I AM JESUS THE SON OF GOD - THIS IS MY MOVEMENT TO HELP BRING ABOUT THE REIGN OF MY SACRED HEART. PLEASE PRAY THE PRAYERS I GIVE.



Jesus speaks: PLEASE Help Me get My priestly newsletter in the hands and hearts of My priests.

This is My Movement, I am Chief Shepherd of the Flock - BE -- Shepherds of Mine -- Shepherds of Christ -- help Me reach the flock and lead them home to My Heart.

Think of the number of priests dwindling more and more. 

Think of the gift of the Eucharist.

You worry about the dying whales.

People get on a soap box.

What about My Catholic priests - My shepherds?

WILL YOU GET ON A BOX and tell the world they MUST pray?

HERE IS MY prayer manual.

Give this message to Sidney, Ohio, and to all Catholics.

I want you to pray the prayers in My prayer manual and get My newsletter to My priests.

Picture of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Jesus speaks: It is in acceptance of all that is before you that you grow in your relationship with me.  Do not try to throw back the opportunity for grace you receive.

Child, I am ever by your side and I am ever teaching you.  Accept all things as happening from Him Who loves you.  Know that My hand is in everything you are experiencing.  I am vigilant and by your side.  Nothing happens to you that I have not consented to.

Messenger: For Mass Book II.

THROUGH HIM, WITH HIM AND IN HIM

THROUGH HIM, WITH HIM AND IN HIM


From September 18, 2000 Daily Message

Messenger: If I love the whole world and all souls with all my heart, can that deep love in Him help to heal souls? Surely!

I feel the love Jesus had in giving Himself and His life and I identify with Him.

Think of all the Masses we attended when we did not let go of so many things and failed to be so intimately one in that Sacrifice.

Think of the hands of the priest and the Masses offered and the gift given from God in those holy Masses. Were their minds on other things, are our minds on other things? Once his hands are laid to rest he can never offer another Mass. Think of all the grace that was released from the hands of the holy priests that have now passed on to another place. The grace that comes from the Masses is such a gift. When we go to bed tonight we can never live this day's moments again, they are gone forever. We had today to unite to the Mass and lay down our lives. What we deemed so important, was it so important to take us from uniting so deeply and selflessly in the Mass?

Did we appreciate our priests? Did we cherish the Masses they celebrated?

Think of all the grace released through the hands of one priest.

Think of all that is missed by men who are not following their vocation to be priests. The modeling must be there.

Fred, an important apostle, who is doing work concerning the priesthood, said one saint helped the boys he talked to so much that they all wanted to be priests. God is the One who calls men to be priests. That love of the priesthood in the holy priest will lead him to boast to men of the greatness of the priesthood. If one priest does this, he can affect so many becoming priests. His love of the priesthood and that vocation can lead him to boast of its greatness which can lead men to follow their vocation if God is calling them to be priests.

WE MUST PRAY FOR OUR PRIESTS TO DO THIS. THIS IS SO POWERFUL when a priest promotes the priestly vocation. We MUST PRAY FOR PRIESTS TO LOVE their priesthood and be holy priests and lead others to the priesthood. The priest is in the best position to encourage others to be priests by what he says,  how he shows the joy of his life lived as a priest.

WE MUST PRAY FOR OUR PRIESTS TO DO THIS.


Messenger:  To contemplate the miracle of the Eucharist is so pleasing to me and makes me cry. Jesus is truly with us in His Divinity and Humanity.

I see the great gift in the priest. A human can look down and see bread and through the words of consecration it is changed into the Body of Jesus and he can look at the cup of wine and the wine is changed into the Blood of Jesus through the words of consecration. 

I cannot say what is in my heart for this great event and to think God in His goodness remains with us truly present through the hands of a man.

I want to ponder this mystery and thank God for this gift of God truly with us in His Divinity and Humanity.

Oh, my men, do you see the gift given to man, a human person, to consecrate the bread and wine so they become the Body and Blood of Jesus?

Oh, my men, do you see the sacredness of it all, that a man can forgive sins?

Oh, do you see how we must pray for our precious priests and why the devil would work to stop men in anyway from following this vocation?

Oh, my men, it is indeed the most precious gift, this gift of the priesthood, to realize that Jesus Christ is truly present in His Humanity and Divinity after a man, a priest, has said the words of Consecration.

Oh, my heart is so filled with this great gift of God. I want so much to lie down and worship our God, for He is so good to us, and the priests are so very, very, very important.

Yesterday at Mass, I watched as a priest looked down after the Consecration. I just gaped with awe and wonder for this mystery and I knew what a gift this was.

I cannot adequately write about it, it is a mystery and what my heart knows is so deeply embedded in my soul.

My heart cries to thank God for His goodness and I want to worship and honor Him and be with Him in His Eucharistic presence within me.

Oh, God, help the schools and the priests to lead men to an appreciation of the Eucharist and our Church.

We truly are the bride of Jesus.

I go to the altar of Sacrifice and I receive Him my Divine God, He is my spouse, I am one with Him in this work to help lead souls to heaven, helping in this Act of Redemption.

My heart is His, my being I give freely, to be used as His messenger for His holy purpose.


Messenger: Think of all the hands of men that didn't consecrate at Mass and administer the sacraments because they didn't answer the call to be priests.

The present priests can help young men become priests. They must grow in great holiness.


The following imprimatur applies only to Prayer for Priests and not the message above or below.

Prayer for Priests

Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, we pray that in the great love and mercy of Your Sacred Heart You attend to all the needs of Your priest-shepherds throughout the world. We ask that You draw back to Your Heart all those priests who have seriously strayed from Your path, that You rekindle the desire for holiness in the hearts of those priests who have become lukewarm, and that You continue to give Your fervent priests the desire for the highest holiness. United with Your Heart and Mary's Heart, we ask that You take this petition to Your heavenly Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit. Amen

Messenger: Our struggle is with being earthy - involved all the time at the bottom of the mountain.


Isaiah 49: 13-15

Shout for joy, you heavens; earth, exult!
Mountains, break into joyful cries!
For Yahweh has consoled his people,
is taking pity on his afflicted ones.
Zion was saying,
   ‘Yahweh has abandoned me,
the Lord has forgotten me.’
Can a woman forget her baby at the breast,
feel no pity for the child she has borne?
Even if these were to forget,
I shall not forget you.


Messenger: Jesus said today we must, must trust in His Heart and have faith. We can't be so focused on Satan that we do not trust. We will receive benefits from His Sacred Heart depending how we trust in Him.

Hopefully, tomorrow we will be able to include the messages from September 13, 2000's rosary.

We must see His hand in what we are doing.

We must TRUST IN HIM.

Sorrowful MotherMary's Message from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary speaks: I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

Song: O Lady of Light, shining so bright, be with us this day, guiding our way, O Lady, O Lady of Light.

Mary speaks: I appear to you as Our Mother of Sorrows.
