Reading: The Manner of the Resurrection, I Corinthians 15:35-58
Jesus speaks: My beloved ones,
I am telling you to study this passage in 1 Corinthians 15, it is not
included here for I wish you to become very familiar with the Bible. Carry this book with
you at all times. A small volume of the New Testament can be carried in pocket or purse,
but I truly recommend that you have the Bible near at hand always that you will be able to
refer to any scripture quote I ask you to reference. The Bible is My word, the Bible must
be with you. Oh I love you so dearly, I give you My word to live by, it is the living word
of God.
On a special feast I gave to My messenger three visions. One of the
visions I speak of, here, is that of the dirt and the balcony. Your life is this struggle
between what is earthly and what is heavenly. I have allowed My messenger to go into such
ecstasies in order to write My words which I give to you. It is through these mystical
experiences you have been given great depth and understanding into the Divine Mysteries.
I speak now of oneness. The oneness between the Father and the Son, the
relationship between the Persons of the Trinity. For in the batting of an eye all will be
changed. I give this grace to many. Do you know what it is to be showered with My grace,
to receive mystical gifts and lights? You do not fully comprehend the ways of God. Man
plans and studies, man approaches so many things from an intellectual view disconnected
from his heart. My chosen ones, I act on your soul as I so choose. I give great insights
and revelations to the merest children, I reveal Myself to those who love Me. I am God, I
do not act like human persons. You do not understand the infinite mind of God. You do not
comprehend how all is in My power. I act as I desire. You time everything, you want God on
a schedule, I do not act on a schedule. I act on the soul as I choose. I act on the soul
many times when the person has received the Eucharist and is in an intimate union with Me.
Many are so closed, they do not even receive the Eucharist with an openness. They have
already planned their schedule to run from My church. I act on the soul especially before
the tabernacle. I do not have to speak in words, I implant knowledge of Myself on your
soul. If you are always busy, you are not open for these moments when I give you the true
treasures your soul seeks. You must have time alone with your God. There must be periods
of silence in which you allow God to take the initiative and act in you.
And so I speak of the balcony and the dirt. You must be so connected to
God so that those around you do not by their actions interfere with your union with God.
You remain connected to Him and to them in love. When others weep, you comfort and weep
with them, but within your heart is a deep rooted joy that God is aware of all the sorrow,
and since He has allowed this suffering, it will produce a greater good in the end for the
furthering of His Kingdom
There is a negative spirit among the brethren. You should stay rooted to
Me in hourly prayer, even if it is only a sentence in which you tell Me you love Me and
want the will of the Father in your life. Asking that the Blood of Jesus be spread on you
and your family, the Church and the world will help you fight the evil one.
So many do not pray frequently and the devil maneuvers events around
them that lead them to despair. It is in frequent prayer, daily prayer, reception of the
Sacraments, that you receive the grace to help fight the battle.
The Holy Spirit Novena I gave to you last November has now received the
imprimatur. I ask that it be printed here and that it be prayed daily.
The following Imprimatur applies only to the Holy Spirit
Novena and not the message above or below.

DAILY NOVENA PRAYERS
Opening Prayer
In the name of the Father and of the Son and
of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Dear Father, we come to You in the name of
Jesus, in union with Him in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in the Holy Spirit. We come to
You united to the Child Jesus of Good Health and the Infant of Prague. We come to You in
the perfect, sinless Heart of Our Mother Mary, asking her powerful intercession, uniting
ourselves to her holy tears. We come to You united to all the angels and saints, and the
souls in purgatory.
Prayer for Holy Spirit
We pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit
on us, to be baptized by the Holy Spirit, that He will descend mightily on us as He did on
the Apostles at Pentecost. That the Holy Spirit will transform us from fear to
fearlessness and that He will give us courage to do all the Father is asking of us to help
bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart. We
pray for the Holy Spirit to descend mightily on the Jesuits and the Poor Clares on the
Shepherds of Christ leaders and members and on the whole Body of Christ and the world.
Protection by the Blood of Jesus
We pray that the Blood of Jesus will be
spread on us, everyone in our families, and the Shepherds of Christ Movement, that we will
be able to move steadfastly ahead and be protected from the evil one.
Healing
We pray for healing in body, mind, and soul
and generational healing in ourselves, in all members in our families, and in all members
of the Shepherds of Christ Movement, the Jesuit Community, the Poor Clares, the Body of
Christ, and the world.
Prayer for Strength and Light
We adore You, oh Holy Spirit. Give us
strength, give us light, console us. We give ourselves entirely to You. Oh Spirit of light
and grace, we want to only do the will of the Father. Enlighten us that we may live always
in the Father's will.
Eternal Spirit fill us with Your Divine
Wisdom that we may comprehend more fully insight into Your Divine Mysteries.
Give us lights, Oh Holy Spirit that we may
know God. Work within the heart, the spiritual womb of the Virgin Mary, to form us more
and more into the image of Jesus.
Prayer to Be One with God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit
We long for You, Oh Spirit of Light, we long
to know God, we want to be one with Him, our Divine God. We want to be one with the
Father, know Him as a Person most intimately. We want to know the beloved One, the Sacred
Heart of Jesus, and live and dwell in Him at all times, every moment of our lives. We want
to be one with You, Oh Spirit of Light, that You move in us in our every breath.
Prayer to Be One in Jesus
Let us experience life in the Sacred Heart of
Jesus, so we can say as Saint Paul, "I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am
alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me...." Let us live, united to the
Mass, all through the day being one in Him. Let us be able to love and know in this
elevated state of oneness with our God. We long for Thee, oh beauteous God, we love You,
we love You, we love You. We praise You, worship You, honor You, adore You, and thank You,
our beloved God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Prayer to Dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
We seek to be one in God, to live and dwell
in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, our little heaven on earth, to experience life in the all
perfect, pure, sinless Heart of our Mother. We want the Holy Spirit to move in us and to
be united to Jesus as the Bridegroom of our souls and be a most perfect sacrifice offered
to the Father at every moment as we unite in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass around the
world to help in the salvation of souls.
Prayer for the Holy Spirit and His Gifts
Come Holy Spirit, come, come into our hearts,
inflame all people with the fire of Your love.
Leader: Send forth Your
Spirit and all will be reborn.
All: And You will renew the face of the earth.
We pray for the seven gifts of the Holy
Spirit, we ask for perfection in our souls to make us holy, holy souls likened to God.
Dear Holy Spirit, we give ourselves to You
soul and body. We ask You to give us the Spirit of Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel,
Fortitude, Knowledge, Piety, and Fear of the Lord.
Prayer for the Word Alive in Our Hearts
We know, dear Holy Spirit, the Word in His
human nature was brought forth within the womb of the woman. We pray that His word will be
brought forth in our hearts as He lives and dwells in us. We want the incarnation to go on
in our lives. Dear Holy Spirit, work in us.
Little Prayers to the Holy Spirit
Dear Holy Spirit, help us not to be ignorant
or indifferent or weak, help us to be strong with the love of God.
Dear Holy Spirit, please pray for our needs
for us.
Dear Holy Spirit, help us to respect God and
to avoid sin. Help us to live in the Father's will.
Dear Holy Spirit, help us to keep Your
Commandments and to respect authority. Help us to love all things as You will us to love
them. Help us to want to pray and always serve God with the greatest love. Help us to know
the truth. Help us to have the gift of faith, hope, and love. Help us to know what is
right and what is wrong.
A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul
Oh Lamb of God, Who takes 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.
First Period
Meditations Nine Days
- Romans 8:14-17
All who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God; for what you received
was not the spirit of slavery to bring you back into fear; you received the Spirit of
adoption, enabling us to cry out, 'Abba, Father!' The Spirit himself joins with
our spirit to bear witness that we are children of God. And if we are children, then we
are heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ, provided that we share his suffering,
so as to share his glory.
- Romans 8:5-9
Those who are living by their natural inclinations have their minds on the things human
nature desires; those who live in the Spirit have their minds on spiritual things. And
human nature has nothing to look forward to but death, while the Spirit looks forward to
life and peace, because the outlook of disordered human nature is opposed to God, since it
does not submit to God's Law, and indeed it cannot, and those who live by their natural
inclinations can never be pleasing to God. You, however, live not by your natural
inclinations, but by the Spirit, since the Spirit of God has made a home in you. Indeed,
anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.
- 1 John 4:12-16
No one has ever seen God, but as long as we love one another God remains in us and his
love comes to its perfection in us. This is the proof that we remain in him and he in us,
that he has given us a share in his Spirit. We ourselves have seen and testify that the
Father sent his Son as Saviour of the world. Anyone who acknowledges that Jesus is the Son
of God, God remains in him and he in God. We have recognised for ourselves, and put our
faith in, the love God has for us. God is love, and whoever remains in love remains in God
and God in him.
- 1 John 4:17-21
Love comes to its perfection in us when we can face the Day of Judgment fearlessly,
because even in this world we have become as he is. In love there is no room for fear, but
perfect love drives out fear, because fear implies punishment and no one who is afraid has
come to perfection in love. Let us love, then, because he first loved us. Anyone who says
'I love God' and hates his brother, is a liar, since whoever does not love the brother
whom he cannot see can love God whom he has not seen. Indeed this is the commandment we
have received from him, that whoever loves God, must also love his brother.
- 1 John 4:7-11
My dear friends, let us love one another, since love is from God and everyone who loves is
a child of God and knows God. Whoever fails to love does not know God, because God is
love. This is the revelation of God's love for us, that God sent his only Son into the
world that we might have life through him. Love consists in this: it is not we who loved
God, but God loved us and sent his Son to expiate our sins. My dear friends, if God loved
us so much, we too should love one another.
- Acts of the Apostles 1:1-5
In my earlier work, Theophilus, I dealt with everything Jesus had done and taught from the
beginning until the day he gave his instructions to the apostles he had chosen through the
Holy Spirit, and was taken up to heaven. He had shown himself alive to them after his
Passion by many demonstrations: for forty days he had continued to appear to them and tell
them about the kingdom of God. While at table with them, he had told them not to leave
Jerusalem, but to wait there for what the Father had promised. 'It is', he had said, 'what
you have heard me speak about: John baptized with water but, not many days from now, you
are going to be baptized with the Holy Spirit.
- Acts of the Apostles 1:6-9
Now having met together, they asked him, 'Lord, has the time come for you to restore the
kingdom to Israel?' He replied, 'It is not for you to know times or dates that the Father
has decided by his own authority, but you will receive the power of the Holy Spirit which
will come on you, and then you will be my witnesses not only in Jerusalem but throughout
Judea and Samaria, and indeed to earth's remotest end.'
As he said this he was lifted up while they looked on, and a cloud took him from their
sight.
- Acts of the Apostles 1:12-14
So from the Mount of Olives, as it is called, they went back to Jerusalem, a short
distance away, no more than a Sabbath walk; and when they reached the city they went to
the upper room where they were staying; there were Peter and John, James and Andrew,
Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot,
and Jude son of James. With one heart all these joined constantly in prayer, together with
some women, including Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
- Acts of the Apostles 2:1-4
When Pentecost day came round, they had all met together, when suddenly there came from
heaven a sound as of a violent wind which filled the entire house in which they were
sitting; and there appeared to them tongues as of fire; these separated and came to rest
on the head of each of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves.
Second Period
Meditations Nine Days
- John 14:21-31
Whoever holds to my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me; and
whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I shall love him and reveal myself to
him.'
Judas-not Judas Iscariot-said to him, 'Lord, what has happened, that you intend to show
yourself to us and not to the world?' Jesus replied:
Anyone who loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we shall come to
him and make a home in him. Anyone who does not love me does not keep my words. And the
word that you hear is not my own: it is the word of the Father who sent me. I have said
these things to you while still with you; but the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit, whom the
Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of all I have said
to you. Peace I bequeath to you, my own peace I give you, a peace which the world cannot
give, this is my gift to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. You heard me
say: I am going away and shall return. If you loved me you would be glad that I am going
to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. I have told you this now, before it
happens, so that when it does happen you may believe.
I shall not talk to you much longer, because the prince of this world is on his way. He
has no power over me, but the world must recognise that I love the Father and that I act
just as the Father commanded. Come now, let us go.
- John 17:11-26
I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you.
Holy Father, keep those you have given me true to your name, so that they may be one like
us. While I was with them, I kept those you had given me true to your name. I have watched
over them and not one is lost except one who was destined to be lost, and this was to
fulfil the scriptures. But now I am coming to you and I say these things in the world to
share my joy with them to the full. I passed your word on to them, and the world hated
them, because they belong to the world no more than I belong to the world. I am not asking
you to remove them from the world, but to protect them from the Evil One. They do not
belong to the world any more than I belong to the world. Consecrate them in the truth;
your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world, and
for their sake I consecrate myself so that they too may be consecrated in truth. I pray
not only for these but also for those who through their teaching will come to believe in
me. May they all be one, just as, Father, you are in me and I am in you, so that they also
may be in us, so that the world may believe it was you who sent me. I have given them the
glory you gave to me, that they may be one as we are one. With me in them and you in me,
may they be so perfected in unity that the world will recognise that it was you who sent
me and that you have loved them as you have loved me.
Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, so that they may always
see my glory which you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the
world.
Father, Upright One, the world has not known you, but I have known you, and these have
known that you have sent me. I have made your name known to them and will continue to make
it known, so that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and so that I may be in
them.
- I Corinthians 15:20-28
In fact, however, Christ has been raised from the dead, as the first-fruits of all who
have fallen asleep. As it was by one man that death came, so through one man has come the
resurrection of the dead. Just as all die in Adam, so in Christ all will be brought to
life; but all of them in their proper order: Christ the first-fruits, and next, at his
coming, those who belong to him. After that will come the end, when he will hand over the
kingdom to God the Father, having abolished every principality, every ruling force and
power. For he is to be king until he has made his enemies his footstool, and the
last of the enemies to be done away with is death, for he has put all things under his
feet. But when it is said everything is subjected, this obviously cannot include the
One who subjected everything to him. When everything has been subjected to him, then the
Son himself will be subjected to the One who has subjected everything to him, so that God
may be all in all.
- Revelation 3:1-3,12,16-19
'Write to the angel of the church in Sardis and say, "Here is the message of the one
who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars: I know about your behavior: how
you are reputed to be alive and yet are dead. Wake up; put some resolve into what little
vigor you have left: it is dying fast. So far I have failed to notice anything in you
behavior that my God could possibly call perfect; remember how you first heard the
message. Hold on to that. Repent! If you do not wake up, I shall come to you like a thief,
and you will have no idea at what hour I shall come upon you.
Anyone who proves victorious I will make into a pillar in the sanctuary of my God, and it
will stay there for ever; I will inscribe on it the name of my God and the name of the
city of my God, the new Jerusalem which is coming down from my God in heaven, and my own
new name as well.
'...but since you are neither hot nor cold, but only lukewarm, I will spit you out of my
mouth. You say to yourself: I am rich, I have made a fortune and have everything I want,
never realising that you are wretchedly and pitiably poor, and blind and naked too. I warn
you, buy from me the gold that has been tested in the fire to make you truly rich, and
white robes to clothe you and hide your shameful nakedness, and ointment to put on your
eyes to enable you to see. I reprove and train those whom I love: so repent in
real earnest...'
- Revelation 5:9-14
They sang a new hymn: You are worthy to take the scroll and to break its seals,
because you were sacrificed, and with your blood you bought people for God of every race,
language, people and nation and made them a line of kings and priests for God, to
rule the world. In my vision, I heard the sound of an immense number of angels gathered
round the throne and the living creatures and the elders; there were ten thousand
times ten thousand of them and thousands upon thousands, loudly chanting:
Worthy is the Lamb that was sacrificed to receive power, riches, wisdom, strength, honor,
glory and blessing.
Then I heard all the living things in creation-everything that lives in heaven, and on
earth, and under the earth, and in the sea, crying:
To the One seated on the throne and to the Lamb, be all praise, honor, glory and power,
for ever and ever.
And the four living creatures said, 'Amen'; and the elders prostrated themselves to
worship.
- Revelation 7:14-17
I answered him, 'You can tell me, sir.' Then he said, 'These are the people who have been
through the great trial; they have washed their robes white again in the blood of the
Lamb. That is why they are standing in front of God's throne and serving him day and night
in his sanctuary; and the One who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them. They
will never hunger or thirst again; sun and scorching wind will never plague them,
because the Lamb who is at the heart of the throne will be their shepherd and will
guide them to springs of living water; and God will wipe away all tears from
their eyes.'
- Revelation 12:1-8
Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon,
and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant, and in labor, crying aloud in
the pangs of childbirth. Then a second sign appeared in the sky: there was a huge red
dragon with seven heads and ten horns, and each of the seven heads crowned with a coronet.
Its tail swept a third of the stars from the sky and hurled them to the ground,
and the dragon stopped in front of the woman as she was at the point of giving birth, so
that it could eat the child as soon as it was born. The woman was delivered of a boy,
the son who was to rule all the nations with an iron scepter, and the child was
taken straight up to God and to his throne, while the woman escaped into the desert, where
God had prepared a place for her to be looked after for twelve hundred and sixty days. And
now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked the dragon.
The dragon fought back with his angels, but they were defeated and driven out of heaven.
- Revelation 14:1-7
Next in my vision I saw Mount Zion, and standing on it the Lamb who had with him a hundred
and forty-four thousand people, all with his name and his Father's name written on their
foreheads. I heard a sound coming out of heaven like the sound of the ocean or the roar of
thunder; it was like the sound of harpist playing their harps. There before the throne
they were singing a new hymn in the presence of the four living creatures and the elders,
a hymn that could be learnt only by the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been
redeemed from the world. These are the sons who have kept their virginity and not been
defiled with women they follow the Lamb wherever he goes; they, out of all
people, have been redeemed to be the first fruits for God and for the Lamb. No
lie was found in their mouths and no fault can be found in them.
Then I saw another angel, flying high overhead, sent to announce the gospel of eternity to
all who live on the earth, every nation, race, language and tribe. He was calling, 'Fear
God and glorify him, because the time has come for him to sit in judgement; worship the maker
of heaven and earth and sea and the springs of water.
Revelation 19:7-8
'...let us be glad and joyful and give glory to God, because this is the time for the
marriage of the Lamb. His bride is ready, and she has been able to dress herself in
dazzling white linen, because her linen is made of the good deeds of the saints.'
- Revelation 21:1-10
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; the first heaven and the first
earth had disappeared now, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy city, the new
Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride dressed for her
husband. Then I heard a loud voice call from the throne, 'Look, here God lives among human
beings. He will make his home among them; they will be his people, and he will be
their God, God-with-them. He will wipe away all tears from their eyes;
there will be no more death, and no more mourning or sadness or pain. The world of the
past has gone.'
Then the One sitting on the throne spoke. 'Look, I am making the whole of creation new.
Write this, "What I am saying is trustworthy and will come true."' Then he said
to me, 'It has already happened. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.
I will give water from the well of life free to anybody who is thirsty; anyone who proves
victorious will inherit these things; and I will be his God and he will be my
son. But the legacy for cowards, for those who break their word, or worship
obscenities, for murderers and the sexually immoral, and for sorcerers, worshippers of
false gods or any other sort of liars, is the second death in the burning lake of
sulphur.'
One of the seven angels that had the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues came to
speak to me and said, 'Come here and I will show you the bride that the Lamb has married.'
In the spirit, he carried me to the top of a very high mountain, and showed me
Jerusalem, the holy city, coming down out of heaven from God.
Revelation 22:20
The one who attests these things says: I am indeed coming soon.
Amen; come, Lord Jesus.
Scriptural quotations are taken from The New Jerusalem Bible,

Imprimatur granted by Cardinal Hume.
Jesus speaks: As the Holy Spirit fills your soul more and more,
you will be filled with great joy in suffering. Your hearts will forever be joyful, for
the Spirit lifts you up. The devil puts within your heart a negative energy that drags you
down.
From this day forward, or as soon as possible, I ask that you pray this
novena daily. Your hearts will be filled with joy and the Spirit will move in you.
The devil will create problems around you. You must have these periods
of quiet prayer with Me or he will keep you focused on the dirt, those things that are at
the bottom of the mountain.
If you only knew how close I am to you. How all of heaven, saints and
angels are with you in this mission to help to bring about the Reign of My Heart. Do not
focus on what others are doing around you. You must handle problems, but many problems are
resolved through hourly prayers. I am Almighty, I Am God. You must handle problems, but
you must have My might behind you. This comes through frequent prayer. I ask you include
the Infant of Prague hourly novena here.
The following Infant of Prague Novena is from the prayer booklet, Devotion To The
INFANT JESUS OF PRAGUE with Nihil Obstat by William W. Baum, S.T.D. and Imprimatur by
Charles H. Helmsing, Bishop of Kansas City - St. Joseph.
Novena to the Infant of Prague (to be prayed hourly if possible)
O Jesus, who said, "Ask
and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you,"
through the intercession of Mary, Your most holy Mother, I knock, I seek, I ask that my
prayer be granted. (for the Shepherds of Christ intentions and all your private
intentions)
O Jesus, who said, "All
that you ask of the Father in My Name He will grant you," through the intercession of
Mary, Your most holy Mother, I humbly and urgently ask Your Father in Your Name that my
prayer be granted. (for the Shepherds of Christ intentions and all your private
intentions)
O Jesus, who said,
"Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My word shall not pass," through the
intercession of Mary, Your most holy Mother, I feel confident that my prayer will be
granted. (for the Shepherds of Christ intentions and all your private intentions)
Jesus speaks: You must ask for help, you must pray, you
must not give in to negative feelings that will drive you to the dirt.
You cannot give in to division in your hearts with your loved ones. You
must settle differences in love. You cannot handle problems with others when you are
angered and feeling cheated or jealous. You must handle the situation because it is God's
will, always acting in love.
In handling problems with your children and those you love, it can be
difficult many times as you are trying to do God's will. The more you consecrate your
hearts to Our Hearts and dwell in Our Hearts, the more My Truth will live in you.
In suffering, accept it and identify with Me. Unite this suffering to
the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass being celebrated throughout the world. Know that great
grace will be released as you unite your suffering to Me, as you do it in love, as you
accept it according to God's will.
Oh My children, if you only knew, you do not have to fear anything but
the death of your soul. I am with you. The earth has not responded, they do not even see
that the chastisements have begun because of their lack of response. You must pray to the Father as I instructed you yesterday.
The very hairs of your head are numbered. Nothing happens on this earth that I have not
allowed. Many will be lost. Many do not even see the great and terrible things that occur
as being from God the Creator.
Will you choose the balcony or the dirt? You must pray for grace, and
discipline your thoughts and your appetites. You have a fallen human nature. With My
grace, you will be filled with great joy. Pray for this outpouring of My grace to help
you. Pray the Holy Spirit Novena daily as soon as possible.
I love you, I am Jesus. I will reign with My great love in all hearts.
Many who refused My warning will be sorry.
I give you a sharing in My divine life in Baptism. I want to give you
the gifts of My Kingdom. It is up to you.
You must obey your God.
I am God, I speak here with authority.
All authority will be under My feet.
