Prayer for Grace for our Country

Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

Glorious Mysteries

Resurrection of Jesus from the Dead

1. R. This is a message that Jesus gave in November 25, 1994.

Jesus: Let go and totally surrender. Trust Me. You can let go. There is always a holding back, not to let go totally, to protect yourself from being hurt. I will never forsake you. I will never abandon you. Totally release yourself into My loving Heart. Let go, total surrender, let go, let go, let go to My love. Be lost in the Heart of Jesus! end of excerpt

Jesus: My beloved ones, I have called you here this day and I will speak to you in your heart.

R. By the precious Body and Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ we cast satan into the fires of hell. We ask You Father in the name of Jesus in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, through the powerful intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, in the Holy Spirit, that we be united here in one mind and one heart for the holy purpose of bringing about the Reign of Your most Sacred Heart. And so we wish to be the greatest apostles, Father, that we can carry out the plan that You have given to us. And we know that we are feeble in our hearts and we are weak and that we fall. But within our hearts we are filled with the greatest love for You, for Your Son, Jesus and for the Holy Spirit. And we ask that the Holy Spirit descend mightily upon us for we have a fallen nature. But within our hearts we are filled with the greatest love in wanting to please You. And it has been an uphill battle ever since You have cal1ed us to this first meeting of the Shepherds of Christ.

    How we have struggled and we have learned and we look at ourselves when we came to that first Shepherds of Christ meeting. And we see where we were. And we have walked into this deep mystery into the Heart of Jesus to know His most burning love. And I look at myself at the first meeting and the Blessed Mother appeared and we said the prayers and I did not even understand the words of consecration or the words of Fatima for they had not been revealed to me. And when Fr. Carter spoke of these words, I could not comprehend for He had blocked my understanding for the time was not right as of yet. And even the word ‘grace’, I did not understand. And He has taken me as a little baby by the hand, from knowing so little to knowing much more. And what is this for?

    He took us as He did in the first Blue Book message, May 13th, 1993, into the Heart of Jesus when He said, “My life will be alive in you.” In Him. And we have lived our life in Him more and more fully as we have journeyed down this path learning, falling to the ground, getting up, watching ourselves bleed, being persecuted and wanting with all our hearts the Truth and wanting to please our God. And we laid on the floor many times and wanted to quit and He was always there. At the end of the dark tunnel there was the Light. And He picked us up and He said to us -

Jesus: My child, this is a special mission and I am training you as a special soldier. There is much darkness in the world and I have called you to be a soldier to spread the Light into the darkness. Come to My Heart and I will pour out My love to you. The road is rocky and the path sometimes veers to the right and the left and you are weary and you fall to the ground and you stub your toe and you go to the priest and you say, “Oh but I just want to love Jesus.”

    And then you receive this grace and it flows into your heart and you are comforted by this great outpouring of My life. This is the journey that I have called you as a shepherd today. I rose from the dead filled with glistening glory and beauty. And you too will rise from the pavement as you skin your knee and you get up and your hearts will be filled with love of God. You are My shepherds. I have called you and you have heard My voice. I have removed the mud from your eyes and you have been taken to the top of the hill and you have seen the glory of the risen Lord. And around the bottom of the hill are many that do not see. And you have suffered in your heart for you’ve wanted to stand there and shout and scream, “God is alive and He is here and He wants to spread His love.” But as you tried to tell all those below, many times they did not hear. And it felt as if you would want to knock your head against a wall because you were so frustrated. But that would not help and there was no place for you to go and so you trod on your path, the path that will lead to the victory. You will carry the white flag. You will be dressed in My white garments and I will give to you the greatest gift My beloved ones, for you will live and dwell with Me forever and ever in the gate My Father has prepared for you. It is the gate that leads to My most Sacred Heart.

Song: A Song from Jesus

Jesus: And I spoke to you then and I said:

November 25th 1994

Jesus: You are never alone. Be wrapped in the immensity of My love. As your heart beats, My love is always there, it never leaves. As you breathe, My love is always there, I never take My love from you for a second. Have constant intense union with Me. Have constant realization of My immense Presence with you. My love does not flicker, it is a roaring furnace that burns for you. end of excerpt

Jesus: Do you know, My dear ones, that I love you so very much? You wander and you roam and you look for the love your soul seeks. And it can only be found in Me.

2. Song: Give thanks to the risen Lord

3. Jesus: And from little babies at the breast learning and taking your milk, you have matured more and more as you grew in your life in Me. Did you know what life was all about before? But in these past years when you have dwelt within My Heart, the life that you have lived has been a life that is deeply rooted in life itself which is life in Me.

4. R. Sometimes I wonder if I have hardly lived at all until my beloved Jesus began to speak to me and I knew Him most intimately. And the years in which He has spoken to me seem as if they are so many and so deep. And the ones before although it was almost 50 seem as if they were so shallow. And I thank Him for this great gift of letting me know what it is to live in Him.

5. R. And what is the Resurrection all about? But He comes to us, to give us life that we will share in His life, more abundantly.

6. Song: On Eagles Wings

7. R. And there is a verse in that song that says, “I am the Resurrection, I am the Life. He who believes in Me will never die.”

8. Jesus: And so I have called you here because I have many things to tell you. I want to give My messages to you, My beloved ones but you do not cherish the great gift that I have given to you. Nor do you know the great gift that you are receiving. I have given so many rosaries and they have not been studied. I have given you the right to release these rosaries to apostles and leaders. These rosaries must be listened to, for the times that are ahead will be very rocky times and you will suffer immensely. I have taught you, My shepherds, the way that you will be able to endure in these end days. I have taught you to pray hourly. It is most important that you pray to the Father in My name through the powerful intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Father will listen to you for He knows that you love Me. And He will give to you what you ask for. I want to tell you of My Might.

I have given to My messenger the greatest experience into My Might. She will account to you from her heart the experience that I have given to you.

R. And so I say to you, when Mary appeared at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, she said that I must be there at 6:30p.m. every night. And several times I did not arrive at 6:30, she did not appear. I did not see Mary because I did not obey. I know how Our Lord works. He has worked on me since 1991. He has put His Truth within my soul and I seek always the truth. For the world has veered to the right and it has veered to the left. Some have said what was wrong was right. There is so much sin and evil in the world and He has chosen us, truly chosen us, to receive these messages. It is not pleasing to Our Lord when there is much business and activity before the meetings. It is very sacred that God gives us these rosaries and He wants us to listen to the messages, to absorb the messages, to think about the messages and to live the messages. What we do in this Movement can make a difference to the peace of this world. We do not even realize the immensity of this mission. Grace is His life in us. For He wanted these books to be books that talked about life. And so I said to Fr. Carter one day, I said, “I just don't get this grace stuff.” And I thought he would fall off the chair in his parlor. And he said, “Rita”, he said, “You know that book I gave you ‘Response in Christ’, I want you to go home and I want you to read that book.” And so I went home and I read it. And I remember being in the hallway and a lady that helps me was there.

    And I started to speak to her and in one second I understood about grace. This is how it is when the Spirit of Truth, when the Light comes across my soul. It is highly illuminated and I understand the most intricate insight into the mysteries. This is how He has given this material, this body of knowledge to me that I have discussed with Fr. Carter. Fr. Carter has received his own Lights on his own. Fr. Carter is a priest that Our Lord has taught for a long, long time, that He has been forming him in this mission, that he will be able to always adhere to the Truth. My fellow shepherds, this is indeed our mission in the Shepherds of Christ, to bring the Truth to the world for the world has veered to the right and to the left. And so Our Lord has placed strong restrictions on us which He has taught us and which He has delivered in rosaries. Messages that were very strong March 8th for apostles, telling us that we must stick to this material, that we are not to use other people’s material except for the Catechism and the Bible. He spells it out strictly in that rosary. There were many things that happened in Florida and many things that have happened on this journey all along that I did not understand.

    Those people that have not obeyed the messages have suffered immensely and I have watched them suffer. For He gives messages as warnings of something that is very bad and is about to happen. And when I get the message I do not like a harsh message that I have to deliver. But it is very urgent for within the next day or two, the evil one works at the same time to combat the message that is given. And if I wait, the events that follow are very devastating for this Movement. I ask you please to pray for me and all of us because it is very difficult. The days ahead that will follow will be very difficult days for all of us. And that is why He has said that we must pray hourly. If you just stop and say the prayers. I ask, I knock, I seek Jesus, please give me the grace to get through the next hour and the will of the Father be done. And to pray to the Father in the name of Jesus.

Jesus: My beloved ones, I tell you there will be torture in the minds of so many.

R. For as you read in the Scriptures that they will be taken this way or that way and they will follow them. This is the Truth. There are many ways that people can be lead astray with drugs, with pills, with the wrong advice, with any person that is in authority. You do not know the things that He has revealed to me. I am telling you this that you are a chosen race, that He has called you to this mission. That the mission that He gives to us will immensely bring about the Reign of His most Sacred Heart. And how we respond will make the difference to so many souls. You can say no. This is the word that I have to give to you today in order for us to do what He has called us to do, He had to tell us strongly. We had to set up three centers. It was very difficult to go from nothing to this, to a worldwide international Movement that is functioning and that is affecting who knows, maybe a million souls this day.

    How could we, this little motley crew, of all of the apostles, affect so many people and have the Priestly Newsletter in 90 countries around the world, with more bishops asking for the Newsletter but we cannot even get it to them. There is so much to be done with the Newsletter and so much that will make the difference to the peace of this world and to the salvation of souls. And the devil knows this.

    Do you realize that all through the Bible it talks about the devil. It talks about this battle between the devil and those people that are living according to God’s will. This is a story of Salvation History. There’s a fall at the beginning and there’s a triumph at the end. And in the end all authority will be under His feet. He was handed over to those who put Him to death and it was in His death that He came forth victorious from the tomb and that we share immensely in His life.

9. R. And so we can truly sing, this is the feast of victory. It is the feast of victory for Our Lord for the wheels are turning toward that end of triumph when the Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. Did you ever think that you would immensely be involved in this?

Song: This is the Feast of Victory

10. Hail Mary

Song: Alleluia, give thanks to the risen Lord

 

The Ascension

1. Jesus: And so I speak to you, My apostles, My leaders, My handmaids. I have given the rosary of March 8th and January 25th (1998) These are rosaries that you must follow. The time is nigh Mary said on December 19th of 1996. The time has come when you must respond as a leader and as an apostle. I wish this rosary to be circulated to all leaders and to all apostles that are not present. Fr. Carter will be listening to the rosary in its entirety. Fr. Carter is very much a part of all the messages that are delivered, for the messages that I have given to My messenger are given to Fr. Carter and discussed daily. It is through the work of Fr. Carter in these messages that the Newsletter is written. You will help to renew the Church and the world. It is because of this great mission that you are immensely taunted by the evil one who wishes to stop you. Pray hourly for grace.

I have given to you the directions for My apostles. In the message of January 30th, it will be impossible for you to survive as an apostle or a leader if you do not live by those directions. I ask you to comply with a free will.

The time has come when many who have come to the prayer meetings and have wished for their personal development and have spent much time in improving their spiritual life, must pray and realize that they can give more and more to the Movement. Time is a very valuable asset. I ask you to look at the time in your day and to see how satan has lead you away from the mission that I have called you to. Many have spent their lives, they have given and given far too much to the point where they have neglected some of the things in their life because many have not answered.

Yes, I am speaking to you. Do you hear Me loud and clear? I have given you great gifts and I have asked you to respond. There are many things in many people’s lives that the devil is using to keep them from helping us to spread the mission across this world. I am asking you to pray fervently to Me for help. Please help as I am calling you.

I wish you to respond always with a free heart, a heart that is filled with love and service wanting to do those things that I have asked you to do. I ask you always, always to follow your heart, to pray fervently and to follow your heart.

2. R. This mystery is the Ascension. We truly live the words in the holy Scriptures. Jesus ascended into Heaven and He left His Apostles behind to complete the work that He had begun. It is a most serious mission and that is why we have battled heavily with the evil one to stop us. God has called us in the Shepherds of Christ to help renew the Church and the world.

Jesus: I ask you My shepherds to come to Me and to pray, to look at the time that you have. It is a most valuable asset and to see how you are spending this time to further My Kingdom.

3. Jesus: You will be taunted on all sides. The people in your family will cause you much distress. Satan blocks the progress of the work that I have asked you to do. But it is the will of the Father that you take care of your families, that you do what you are supposed to do. And so when you are faced with a difficult situation, I ask you to pray hourly to the Father in My name, that you will receive the help that you need with the situation. And I tell you My messenger, to tell them of My Might.

R. And I was told not to talk to anyone in China when I went to China to pray. And on the days that I talked, I did not receive the favors. And so I know truly that when He is telling me not to talk too much, He is serious because He withholds the favors that I want so much. And it has been very difficult because I love everyone in the Movement and it is very hard not to talk. But in order for me to receive the messages and the insights into the Scriptures that He wishes to give to us and to the world, it is necessary for me to remain in a certain state of seclusion in the fact that I cannot spend the time talking on the phone and trying to settle the problems.

    I just get this serious message. And it is when you know something needs healing and then you have to handle the problem. This is the problem and Jesus has given me this message. But it’s always right on and the Movement would not be where it is today if He had not given us the messages. Because we would have faced many, many difficult things that we could not have come out of, if He had not warned us at precisely the right time to act a certain way.

    And the ones that are true apostles, which are with us today, have responded with the wishes that He has asked them. And this is how we have grown. For it is not this way with the world. You could not go to the world and say, “this is a problem in your life, you’ll have to change it.” They would tell you to be off. But He is telling us what is a problem and we are merging more and more into oneness because we truly are dying to many of the imperfections in our lives, and becoming more like Him. It is in this that we will go into the world and we will truly say as St. Paul said,

Galatians 2: 19-20

...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me

R. And this is how we pray. We pray in great oneness with Him and we love our God with our whole heart and our whole soul and our whole being. And when we pray to the Father in the name of Jesus, yes indeed, He answers that prayer as He promised in John. For He said, “He will answer that prayer because you love Me.” And over and over again, He speaks in John saying, to pray to the Father in the name of Jesus. And this is our key. To tell Him how much we love Him, to tell Him that we live for His honor and His glory, to live our whole lives to beg God that we know His will and to do His will even when it is hard. And when something is very difficult in our life, which I now am praying all the time, but I knew the Might of the Almighty God and it is beyond anything I can say.

    And the words that Fr. Carter said, “Rita, it is His Might that will take this across the earth,” is true. I have to hold back and say it is not by me that it is going to happen, it is by His Might. And no matter how much you want to get in there when you know that you have done what you can, you should never go in and argue with people that you can’t do anything about. You have to hold back and you have to say, “Father, in the name of Jesus, hourly, help this situation. I love you and I know that you will answer this prayer.”

Because Jesus said so.

4. R. I am not the God. Father Carter is not the God. In order to establish the authority that was necessary in the Movement all the messages on authority needed to be given.

    The authority is there. Fr. Carter is the head. This is how it is. Fr. Carter is a priest with a doctors in theology. Our Lord speaks to him. Satan sometimes talks in the head of apostles. When you hear a voice talking in your head it could very well be from satan. And then the person follows that message and they can get in a lot of trouble. The message that Jesus gives is in your heart. The message is in your heart, the message that He gives will nag at your heart and you will know.

    You must be very leery of voices that you hear speaking in your heads. Fr. Carter is standing behind all of the work that we are doing here. There is a very deep connection between me and him everyday, in that I talk to him, everyday discussing all the messages that I have received which are enormous. You cannot even believe how many messages I receive defining authority in institutions and the Church. Just tremendous things that I receive everyday, pages. Our Lord has truly given to us great gifts of writings that has never been given to this world. Abraham had to take his son to the altar and he went all the way and he thought he would have to sacrifice his son. And then the Lord told him that he could let him go.

5. Jesus: And so I speak to you My beloved, faithful, loving apostles and shepherds. You have given and the world has greatly changed for the gift of yourself. I ask you again for those who have not given as much that they spend the time in prayer and analyze the time in their life. Know that satan will try to stop the progress of the Movement and that many times that the evil one has tried to get you to give him your precious time needed for this mission. I say to you this, there are some babies in this Movement who have sucked the life from the Movement. There are others that serve and serve and serve and serve and do not ask. I wish that you would read the message of yesterday to the apostles.

6. April 18, 1998

Jesus: I am teaching you to be contemplative in action. All of My apostles must be rooted in Me and be active helping to bring about the Reign of My Heart.

    I have taught you about the importance of hourly prayer. I have taught you about the Mass. You know the power of the Eucharist. What is it all for? It is to bring the light to a world that is walking in darkness. You are praying all through the day for the renewal of the Church and the world and the coming of My Sacred Heart. You act in My Name. You must be rooted in Me. Walk, apostles, in the darkness and spread the light, My love vibrating from your hearts. You are as a two-edged sword for I have made My Word alive in you. I have planted the seed that has germinated.

    Focus on the good life, life is not life if it is not rooted in Me. Action or selfishness. Some of your apostles focus on themselves. The Movement is not existent for their self-improvement only. The movement is that, they, will spread the Good News. Some work until they drop, they produce great fruit. Some live to cause trouble. Some think this movement lives for their life alone. I have called you to this life as a contemplative in action. If the action is missing, you are not producing the fruit I wish. I live in you and you are to bear great fruit. Some have horrendous problems because they continue to miss the whole cycle. The seed is planted, it brings forth fruit. You are in labor bringing forth the children into the light. Some are wailing in pain. Others just wail and hold the movement back. This is how many are in the Church. People are in boxes, they go for their own personal development and do not see that they are to lay down their lives for one another in prayer and work.

    Your prayers are helping already to renew the Church and the world. Your works are good works for they are rooted in Me. I ask you to circulate this message to leaders and apostles. Are you selfish or serving? Do you wait while others wash your feet?

R. The Lord showed us how to be the person in authority - He washed their feet. In the end, all authority will be under Him.

Jesus: So much work could be accomplished if some of the apostles in your Movement would get out of their selfish ways and realize I give great gifts here because much is expected of them. Spread the Good News to the ends of the earth.

    You must have time with Me, your Divine Lover. I want to live in you. If you are too busy you lose your connection to Me. If you are totally focused on your own self reform you do not bear the fruit I wish you to bear.

    You are contemplatives in action. I will live and dwell and act in you and you will bear great fruit.

    Get off of the pity pot and realize the world is changing because of the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Pray and produce good fruit.

    You must be rooted in Me. I call you to action. Not so much action, you are busy slaves; not so much prayer, you are only focused on your own renewal.

    Prayer apostles are asked to pray for the intentions of the Shepherds of Christ to bring about the renewal of the Church and the world. Prayer apostles are praying for the Ministry.

    The handmaids are contemplative in action. The Lay Apostles are contemplative in action.

    The priests and brothers will be contemplative in action. I will hear you say, “it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in Me.” end of April 18, 1998

7. Hail Mary
8. Hail Mary

9. R. This is from Matthew 6: 25-34 Reference.

10. R. And this is really good This is how He says you should judge false prophets. So you figure since the Shepherds of Christ Movement started three years ago. We are in 90 countries. We have spread many consecrations to over 8,000 schools, the Priestly Newsletter to all these priests all over the world. Now it is in three languages. And there’re people all over that have not committed suicide and have changed their lives, have gone to the Eucharist, Eucharistic centers of adoration all over from people that have read the Blue Books or Fr. Carter’s Newsletters, people that are deeply rooted in their hearts because of the Movement, completing what Our Lady has said at Fatima for her children.

    So I just want to read this from Matthew 7: 15-20.

‘Beware of false prophets who come to you disguised as sheep but underneath are ravenous wolves. You will be able to tell them by their fruits. Can people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? In the same way, a sound tree produces good fruit but a rotten tree bad fruit. A sound tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor a rotten tree bear good fruit. Any tree that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown on the fire. I repeat, you will be able to tell them by their fruits.

Song: We Have Been Told

 

The Descent of the Holy Spirit

1. Jesus: I give you a new commandment. It is this: to love God and to love one another.

2. R. This is the advice of Our Lord for the site in Florida. Do you know how many people are in this world today? Our Lady appears on the building, Our Lady clothed with the sun and we are so few in number that we cannot cover the site. But believe me that the Spirit of Truth is coming which is what it says in John. And I could read it exactly from the Scriptures. But this is the thing. We are speaking the Truth. For they have veered to the right and to the left. And if one thing goes out down there on that site that could taint the Shepherds of Christ Movement, that isn’t good.

    For does it matter if we do something wrong that will stop the Movement or if we do what we do with quality. And the Movement goes on. Our Lord said that the Movement will not fail for it is His Movement and these writings are major to unveiling the Scriptures. So at the proper time they will be studied over and over again for the depth and the insight that is in them. But it is up to us now to function as much as we possibly can. But if the site is not covered and it is only covered three hours that day, that is better then us going against the Father’s will and putting somebody in there that is not an apostle that will do something that is wrong.

    We must adhere to the messages. He will give us grace. He will give us favors. He will do what we want Him to do to help the Movement when we obey. So the devil says, doing a good thing will help here. And so we say, well, we’ll get rid of a whole lot of extra Blue Books. God’s not telling us to do that today. If He’s telling you to do one thing, why do something else that you make up on your own and think its a good thing when He told you specifically to do this? If He says I want this mailing out. Maybe we can’t even get the mailing out. Our center is shut down here. We don’t have anybody answering the phones, we don’t have anybody doing the mailings here. The center is shut down. We’re only so many people. Many have said no. Jesus wants us spending that hour. Our most important thing in the Movement is our union with Our Lord. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.

    If we operate and we do not spend the time in prayer and in union with Our Lord, we will get the wrong messages. It will not be Jesus that is living in us, it will be a busy body that’s doing a bunch of things that could end up being wrong. We are His instruments in which He will live and dwell and operate through us. And our most important thing is our love of God. We must have that time everyday alone with Him. If you cannot do anything, if you do not spend the time alone with Him, you take in things all day, information from all these people. Some good, some bad. And then that’s what you act on. You need that hour in which He intimately works on the soul and the heart in the Holy Spirit and you know what the will of the Father is. This is why we are operating, that in the end all will be living in the Father’s will. Every relationship we have must be the one that is the Father’s will. I don’t go hanging around with somebody who’s living in sin and is dragging me down. I don’t sit in front of the television and fill myself with poison. We are to be rooted in the Truth. You cannot fill yourself with poison. It’s like filling a sick kid with a bunch of garbage and then wondering why they are throwing up.

    We are to be instruments living in the Truth. We need to walk in the Truth. I go to Fr. Carter and I talk and I talk and I talk and I talk and then I leave. But I know what I’m getting is the Truth. Many in the world are not operating in the Truth. This is our mission. This is what we must speak. We must walk in the truth. We must do the will of the Father.

    Everything that I do should be to do the will of God. Not too much, not too little, not off in either direction. If I say I’m going to fast for five days, that’s probably not God’s will. I fasted for three days on water once because it was so hard. And then I was crying and crying and crying. And finally Fr. Carter got it out of me. This was several years ago. He got it out of me that I had been fasting. And he said, “Don’t you ever do that again. That is not God’s will.” He wills for us to sleep. He doesn’t will for us to stay in front of the tabernacle all night. He wants one hour from us. If we are being moved by the Spirit to stay there longer, stay there longer. But if we say He wants me just praying, maybe He does, maybe you're a sick person and you can pray all day. The directions for Shepherds of Christ members are to consecrate their hearts. When I talk to Father we consecrate our hearts. If I call up Debby or Melanie, I say, “I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you.” When we have prayer at our centers which He wants every hour, it is so important. The world is suffering right now because we’re not having the prayers at the centers as it once was. When He wants the prayer at the centers, this is the rule. These are the rules. You come with a heart that you want to pray freely. We do not want control in the Movement. If you’re doing it you’re doing it because you believe God is asking you to do it. You have been prepared for battle. Now the battle is going to be so hard because the devil will attack us interiorly to be divided with the people that we need to get the job done. And if we don’t pray hourly, we’re going to be attacked. It’s for our benefit to do this. If somebody doesn’t follow the rules, he is disobeying.

    That’s why more and more we have to get the apostles and the leaders doing their job. More people have to come forward. I mean this is in 90 countries. There are certain people that Our Lord wants to read those messages and to know exactly what’s in them. There’s a body of people that need to read the messages. I have to be just where I’m hearing mainly messages all the time.

    So if something is going on in your home, you live in the Truth, you live according to the Word, you live according to the commandments. This is the Truth of God. There’s a bunch going on, you cannot tell your spouse what to do. There is a line of authority. But there’s rules. But if I’m a mother and I have a child that is under me, then they should obey me. If I have a child that’s 16 or 17, there’s sometimes different rules to handle.

    The authority is defined by Our Lord. There is always an answer in Him and the right answer is there. And a lot of times the answer is this, it is like the lame and the cripple that were outside of the sheep gate, it says in John 5.

John 5: 5-9

One man there had an illness which had lasted thirty–eight years, and when Jesus saw him lying there and knew he had been in that condition for a long time, he said, ‘Do you want to be well again?’ ‘Sir,’ replied the sick man, ‘I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is disturbed; and while I am still on the way, someone else gets down there before me.’ Jesus said, ‘Get up, pick up your sleeping–mat and walk around.’

The man was cured at once, and he picked up his mat and started to walk around.

R. But the point of it is, is there’s all these people that are like lined up outside the Sacred Heart of Jesus and they’re not going to go in because they are thinking it’s too hard. He couldn’t really mean that I should pick up this cross and this suffering and go with it? I should go get a pill, a coke, go find a man, go eat some food, go do something pleasurable to relieve the suffering. That is our culture. You should feel good. The Way of the Lord sometimes, a lot of the times, that leads to the greater Life is in picking up the cross on our back and following Him.

3. R. It all goes to oneness, satisfaction is found in living in Him, being at peace with others. Our whole desire must be that of wanting His will, not more, not less. Our pain can become so intense. It is then that it is the easiest to surrender to Him. Like if we’re laying on the operating table, then it is real easy to know what’s most important in our life. That’s what I was trying to explain here yesterday. With the pressing down of the problems we can get to the core and answer the most important questions for our existence. What do we want the most? Is it not the greatest desire of the soul to be possessed by our Divine God? As Christians we are most favored by a special grace, the grace that He has given us to be Christians. We do not realize that the very state of loving Christ is because of His acting in us with grace and thus we know that we love Him and want to be loved by Him.

    I speak of foolish things many times but when I am at the point of the scalpel as the surgeon is about to cut on our body, the clarity of knowing the most important reason for our being becomes very clear. We scoff at the suffering and wish it to be lifted for we are people wishing pleasure and not pain. But it is in the pleasure we are satisfied and fail to reflect many times on the very core of our existence. If it is a life-death situation lying helplessly on an operating table, the insights into the mystery of what life is all about becomes vividly clear. We see the death, we know the Resurrection. If only we could embrace the death, the suffering, as a gift that would help us though it is hard to bear the pain. It is in the deepest, darkest night I met my God. We are descendants of Adam and Eve, always wishing to be satisfied but we were baptized into His Life and the struggle forever goes on in our soul.

    There were many lame, blind and crippled outside the sheep gate. They were laying there for they had no one to help them. Jesus said, “Rise, take up your mat and walk.” We must realize that to go into the gate into His Heart, we must follow in His footprints. He took up His cross, He carried it and He walked to the hill of Calvary where He was put to death. There His Heart was pierced with a lance and what came forth was blood and water. Many do not realize that when the road gets tough, it is the Father’s will that we suffer, for it was in His suffering we were brought to new Life. It is in our suffering that we too are brought to new Life.

Reference John 5: 9-16

4. Jesus: And so I know that you are tired and weary, My shepherds, and I do not wish to keep you much longer, but I have given to you very important messages concerning the Morrow Center and the Movement. I ask you to please study the directions that I have given to you. But above all, the direction that I give that I want to be so intimately united to you that I want to live and dwell in your heart and to operate through you. You have been called by My Father to be a shepherd in this mission. Will you answer that call? Will you take up your cross and will you follow Me?

4. R. This is from Revelation. This is chapter 12 where it talks about the Lady clothed with the sun.

Revelation 12: 10-12

Then I heard a voice shout from heaven, ‘Salvation and power and empire for ever have been won by our God, and all authority for his Christ, now that the accuser, who accused our brothers day and night before our God, has been brought down. They have triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word to which they bore witness, because even in the face of death they did not cling to life. So let the heavens rejoice and all who live there; but for you, earth and sea, disaster is coming—because the devil has gone down to you in a rage, knowing that he has little time left.’

5. Hail Mary

6. R. And so we have the accuser, the devil, who accuses them day and night. In their thoughts do you hear him speaking and saying things and accusing you of how you are, of how somebody did this or whatever. It is only in the hourly prayer for we will become more and more tormented as the time draws near. We do not want to go to the right or the left or follow a false prophet.

    God has given to us His Word. We must be pure and living in the Truth. Sometimes, not listening to the newspaper or the news at night and then going to bed and letting that play in our head all night. What are we putting in our body? And how can we be the instruments of His Truth if we’re filling ourselves with things that are going to upset us. The accuser will accuse us day and night and he will draw from this information that we have taken in. We must pray hourly that we receive the grace and the protection. The big connection will be in the end that there will be one body, and the one body will be connected in the Consecration in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. We have to let go more. I am connected in my heart.

    We are going to spread this Movement to the far ends of the earth. It is in the seriousness of praying our Morning Offering and consecrating our hearts at 3, 6, 9 and 12 even if we only say, “I give my heart to Jesus and Mary”, that we will receive the benefits by being united and we keep praying for His grace. If Jesus is really in us, strongly, are we afraid? What happens when I pray this hour? I say, “Father, in the name of Jesus please give me the grace and the funds for the Movement and Thy will be done.” You get a lot of grace.

    Another thing is, is reading the Blue Book messages we stay closer to Him. We need oneness with Him to fight satan and stay on track. Keep praying. He has taught us how to be focused on Him so we won’t go astray. He’s taught us to be at peace in immense suffering. How would He teach us that unless He left us go through this pressing down? And made us go through it. You can all carry your little white flag out of here for you’ve been to the school that Jesus has taught. We have been on the high seas and the boat was going over and we’ve cried out to the Lord as the Apostles did, “Lord, Lord, we’re going to drown”. And He says, “I am here. What are you worried for? I’ve got all the power”. And from that experience that I had, I know this, I know absolutely this. It is in obedience. He’s giving us these messages and He wants us to obey. You have a free will. You can commit yourself or not to do what He says. If He really wants you, He can let you suffer if you don’t do what He’s saying. He gives us a free will.

    Many times it has been difficult to deliver a message. And every time when it was the hardest, the very hardest, it was so important that the message was delivered promptly. And it’s still hard. How could any of us know everything? The whole world is teaching us many wrong lessons. That’s the problem. We’ve got to be rooted in the Truth. That’s what He says in one of these Scriptures. The Truth is in you. You know, you go out in the world and you turn on a T.V. and much is evil. Jesus tells us to consecrate our heart. Live in the Word. Know what the Truth is. We are just living the Scriptures. The Acts of the Apostles. We must pray that the Holy Spirit descends mightily upon us and that we are brought forth as children of Light formed in the womb of the woman through the Holy Spirit. We have the Truth and the Truth will set us free.

7. R. So they wanted to kill Christ and eventually they did. They hung Him on a tree. And this is how it is for us. If we walk in His footprints, we will walk the bloody path that led to Calvary.

8. R. And they jailed the children at Fatima. And it all came, the messages of Our Lady of Fatima and the fourth commandment that says that we must obey our mother and our father. But we do not see that we are disobeying Our Lady when she told us what would happen if we did not obey her at Fatima. She told us what to do and today we are in the most awful state. We lack peace in our world because the Queen of Peace, Our Mother, appeared and she told us, “This is my Peace Plan.” And we disobeyed our Mother.

What does the fourth commandment say and why do we disobey her?

Song: Our Lady of Fatima

9. Jesus: And so I say to you, My beloved ones, I have come to you and this is the closing of a long day. I ask you to leave this place after you pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers and to meditate on the messages that I have given to you to contemplate and to think of the words that I spoke to you. I ask you whenever possible to come to the rosaries and to hear the words that I speak to you. I am asking My messenger to stay away from the Morrow center during this period of silence. I will deliver the messages to you from a tape. I wish you to listen to the words that I speak for I am Jesus speaking to you. I do not wish you to associate the messages with My messenger or with Fr. Carter. I am with you. I am guarding you. I am with you at every second of your day and I love you with the most abundant love. Do not fear, My beloved ones, I am guarding you. I am asking you once again to remain in silence and I am asking you that you come to Me in the silence alone and that you spend this hour each day with Me. I give you 24 hours in the day. Can you not watch one hour with Me? Come and pray that you will not enter into temptation. I am Jesus. You have been called and you have been chosen. Come to Me. Will you help to spread the good news to the far ends of the earth. I am so thankful to you, My beloved shepherds, for you have pleased My Heart with all your fervor, your prayers and the sacrifices that you have given to help to spread the Movement to the far ends of the earth.

Come to Me and I will give you My love. I am Jesus, the King of Kings.
