Messenger:          One moment the water can be
                        a certain way then it begins to
                        rise.

                            Flooding has been a problem —
                            Sign of the Rainbow

Messenger:           I want to meditate on God's creation —

                        The light comes up everyday —

                            Water can be a certain level and
                        almost in silence it seems

                            Oh what is happening
                        water is used for cleansing —
                        Polluted water is not good.

                        Lights shine around us in the morning —
                            a sun on fire, a big ball of
                            what looks like fire hanging
                            in a pale blue sky

                        Oh, we say look at the sun

                        How did those green beautiful fields
                            turn into that golden looking
                            hay

                            Oh look at those flowers, wild
                        brilliant yellows and oranges and reds

                            The corn starts like little
                        shoots and overnight seems to grow
                        sky high, to a little child watching
                        it grow.

                            Tomato plants start as seeds and
                        can grow
                            Big gigantic red tomatoes —
                            Oh such beautiful red —

                        Colors are wonderful things —
                            green grass
                            blue skies
                            yellow fields
                            orange suns

                        water on the ocean — almost black
                            with silver light in the
                            morning — dancing and dancing on it

July 10, 2005 message continues

Messenger:       by late afternoon blues — Caribbean
                            blues — emerald greens — oh
                            the beauty we say —

                        and water as far as one can see

                        Dark nights come and the beauty disappears
                            like mother closing the cupboard
                            doors at night —

                        Only to see the brilliant sun — big as a
                            ball of glistening light rest on
                            the ocean of wondrous beauty
                            with the new day

July 10, 2005 message continues

Messenger:       Do you meditate on green — the green
                            of a thick grass at a beautiful
                            resort or a richly cladded
                            lawn by a luxurious white paneled mansion
                            with black shutters —
                            adored with radiantly shaded
                                flowers — red, blues, yellows
                                                pink

                            Watch one field full with cars for
                        Sunday Mass —

                            Another with cars for a car show —
                            boat race —

                        Oh little land so green and beauteous river
                            so wide — oh sky opening above
                            me everyday —
                            tell me your story —
                            the story of your days —
                            flooded banks —
                            treacherous waters —
                            calm isles like the silk of cloth
                            barges — so many gliding down
                            the waters way —

                        Oh so many beauties Our Father has
                            given to us and so many stories —
                            Our anger can swell in us and block
                                our wide vision — of the
                                most beautiful ocean view —

                            Our focus on such details can
                                cloud the view of how
                                great things really are —

                        We can miss the river, shaded
                            shores because our vision
                            is impaired —
                            we can miss the beauties of
                            life because of our stubborn ways —

                        I went to a Afro-American Mass and what I saw
                            was people singing and enjoying the
                            song and the music — not focused
                            on themselves and how they looked
                            and what others are thinking —

                        In our "radio" how many thoughts go in
                            sizing up ourselves, sizing up
                            others and focusing on what
                            others are thinking

                        We can waste so much precious
                            time being crippled by focusing
                            on ourselves —

Prayer for Union with Jesus

    Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.

    I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.

    I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.

    When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.

-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994

July 10, 2005 message continues

Messenger:       If one tree can make such a
                            difference to a barren lawn —
                            think of one person being a light
                            can make to this world —

                        Wide river open up to me —
                            where once the road was filled
                            with little old "Packard's"

                        Now we see the commercials of the
                            cars and trucks that can fly at
                            enormous speeds — over roads

                        Has our own lives become like the
                            record speed cars — zooming
                            past and missing what life is
                            all about -

                        Do we need to slow down like the
                            old Packards —

                            Do we bull doze down our beautiful
                        trees and cover our river views
                        with trash —

                            Is there a place on the earth
                        a bird can fly without fearing
                        for his life or being sprayed
                        with pollution?

                            Can we even stop to meditate
                        on the Mysteries of the rosary or
                        can't we sit still for this long
                        in the world of fast trucks —
                        fast music and computer games
                        Are barns and silos almost unseen
                        by our children as they learn to
                        rock and roll and live in this fast
                        world at 4

                        2 year old little girls playing star wars warfare
                            with the boys next door

                        Can you sing the old love song of
                            the 50's when people thought
                            and planned to go on a spring
                            evening walk and hold hands and
                            wonder what happened that now
                            people are in bed on television
                            every couple of minutes with
                            strangers

                        What about the songs where the
                            guy sang under her window —
                            waiting for her or was
                            singing for years on the street
                            where she lived —

                        Little blue flowers lining the roadway
                            were so very dainty and they still
                            are —

                        Are the female bodies still dainty and
                            likened to Mary Our Mother

                        When we fill ourselves with poison —
                            we do just that fill ourselves with poison —

                        God has called this retreat for us to
                            pray as intercessors for the priests, the
                            Church and the world —

                        The retreat today, united to the Masses
                            going on around the world can
                            help renew the Church and the world —

                        Help to give us greater vision

                        Help us to see what it means when
                            God the Father calls a code orange

                        The messages I have been given are
                            from God to tell us —
                            what we are doing wrong —
                            how to unveil satan working —
                            tell us about the glories of heaven and
                            tell us what to do ———

                        The messages are salt to the earth

                        They crucified Jesus

                        The code orange is being called
                            for how we are letting the
                            priesthood be stomped out
                            by satan.

                        This crises is a crisis —
                            God is telling us what to do
                                to stop the work of satan —

                        God is not saying to us — be
                            like everyone else ——

                        He is the salt of the earth —
                        He tells us what to do to be as
                            He wants —

                        Trying to make me or the message
                            like what is being done now in the world is
                            not delivering the message
                            from God now that I am getting to help renew the situation.

                        Focusing on me and trying to make
                            me more like what is being
                            done is not why God picked
                            me to deliver a message of
                            renewal for the Church and
                            the world —

                        From the first Blue Book the guy
                            wanted to change it —
                            make it what would appeal to
                            people and how they were acting now —

                        God had His own message —
                            intimacy with Him —
                            deep intimacy with Him —

                        I write the message as Jesus
                            wants —

                            If He tells me 250 "so muchs"
                                for how He loves us — I am
                                sure it describes little of
                                God's love — but you don't
                                understand when you want to
                                rewrite His message —
                            Intense Love for men —
                                Christ gave His life to His
                                death on the cross

                        "Oneness" was another problem for
                            the man helping me publish the
                            books —

                        Oneness is the whole mission of the
                            Shepherds of Christ

 

Cling to Me (excerpt)

May 13, 1993 

Jesus speaks: My dear child, if you stay close to Me, then I live in you and you live in Me. I am He Who created you and I love you with such an intensity that you will never know. My words are your truth. You must abide in My heart in all things. There is no room for doubt. My ways are steadfast, direct, and without error.

Messenger:       When an animal dies in the
                            road — he is dead —
                            he has no more life —
                            He was killed by a car —

                        When a soul dies on the road
                            through continuous sin —
                            he may as well be like an
                            animal standing in front of
                            a moving car at a high
                            speed —

                        We got one life —
Mary says:       So many souls are going —
                            to hell — Oh children so
                            many today — help me reach them
                            Listen to my Son who is giving
                            His Movement for the renewal
                            of the Church and the world.

                        "Trees do bend though straight and tall" —

                        Look at the birds flying —
                            see the birds flying upside down —
                            see the birds fleeing from a fast
                                moving vehicle

                        If the cars slow down — the birds
                            will have a greater chance to live.

                        In all the years the women of the world
                            are having babies —
                            the time is still 9 months for a
                            normal pregnancy —

                            Our birthday comes every 365
                        days and we keep getting older —

                            When a hurricane is coming —
                        can we stop it?
                        We could, possibly, pray it
                        away —

                        The Power is in God Almighty
                            Who could fathom the Divine
                            God came into this world in
                            a little baby body —
                            Born of a human person —

                        Who could understand the cycle of
                            one human body and how they
                            grow and can have children —

                        Who can design the sky and
                            the sun and the moon and
                            put the stars in place —

                        Sing:  Come with me into the Fields

                        Sing:  Valleys of Green

                        Sing:  Before the Sun Burned Bright

                        Sing:  All the Ends of the Earth

Jesus speaks:    Vision — I call you to
                            vision — pray to the
                            Holy Spirit

                        Sing:  Hosea

Jesus speaks:    I give you My Word
                        and the Commandments as
                        your measuring stick.

God the Father speaks:

                        You have disobeyed My Commandments —
                            many do not like the word
                            "obey" —

                        Jesus obeyed My will —
                        Jesus is the Son of God —
                        Jesus teaches you to be
                            sons of God —

John 1: 1-18

In the beginning was the Word:
the Word was with God
and the Word was God.
He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things came into being,
not one thing came into being
   except through him.
What has come into being in him was life,
life that was the light of men;
and light shines in darkness,
and darkness could not overpower it.

A man came, sent by God.
His name was John.
He came as a witness,
to bear witness to the light,
so that everyone might believe
   through him.
He was not the light,
he was to bear witness to the light.

The Word was the real light
that gives light to everyone;
he was coming into the world.
He was in the world
that had come into being through him,
and the world did not recognise him.
He came to his own
and his own people did not accept him.

But to those who did accept him
he gave power to become children of God,
to those who believed in his name
who were born not from human stock
or human desire
or human will
but from God himself.
The Word became flesh,
he lived among us,
and we saw his glory,
the glory that he has from the Father
   as only Son of the Father,
full of grace and truth.

John witnesses to him. He proclaims:
‘This is the one of whom I said:
He who comes after me
has passed ahead of me
because he existed before me.’

Indeed, from his fullness
    we have, all of us, received—
one gift replacing another,
for the Law was given through Moses,
grace and truth have come
   through Jesus Christ.
No one has ever seen God;
it is the only Son,
   who is close to the Father’s heart,
who has made him known.

God the Father speaks:

                           Once an animal is dead in
                        the street — he is dead, lifeless.

                            Once they dig out the roots
                        of the tree — it is gone —

                            Satan wants to poison you
                        to your roots ———

Genesis Chapter 3

   Now, the snake was the most subtle of all the wild animals that Yahweh God had made. It asked the woman, ‘Did God really say you were not to eat from any of the trees in the garden?’ The woman answered the snake, ‘We may eat the fruit of the trees in the garden. But of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden God said, "You must not eat it, nor touch it, under pain of death." ’ Then the snake said to the woman, ‘No! You will not die! God knows in fact that the day you eat it your eyes will be opened and you will be like gods, knowing good from evil.’ The woman saw that the tree was good to eat and pleasing to the eye, and that it was enticing for the wisdom that it could give. So she took some of its fruit and ate it. She also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened and they realised that they were naked. So they sewed fig–leaves together to make themselves loin–cloths.

   The man and his wife heard the sound of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from Yahweh God among the trees of the garden. But Yahweh God called to the man. ‘Where are you?’ he asked. ‘I heard the sound of you in the garden,’ he replied. ‘I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.’ ‘Who told you that you were naked?’ he asked. ‘Have you been eating from the tree I forbade you to eat?’ The man replied, ‘It was the woman you put with me; she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.’ Then Yahweh God said to the woman, ‘Why did you do that?’ The woman replied, ‘The snake tempted me and I ate.’

   Then Yahweh God said to the snake, ‘Because you have done this,

    Accursed be you of
    all animals wild and tame!
    On your belly you will go
    and on dust you will feed
    as long as you live.
    I shall put enmity
    between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring and hers;
    it will bruise your head
    and you will strike its heel.’

     To the woman he said:

     I shall give you intense pain
        in childbearing,
     you will give birth to your children
        in pain.
     Your yearning will be for your husband,
      and he will dominate you.

   To the man he said, ‘Because you listened to the voice of your wife and ate from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat,

     Accursed be the soil because of you!
     Painfully will you get your food from it
     as long as you live.
   It will yield you brambles and thistles,
     as you eat the produce of the land.
   By the sweat of your face
     will you earn your food,
     until you return to the ground,
     as you were taken from it.
     For dust you are
     and to dust you shall return.’

   The man named his wife ‘Eve’ because she was the mother of all those who live. Yahweh God made tunics of skins for the man and his wife and clothed them. Then Yahweh God said, ‘Now that the man has become like one of us in knowing good from evil, he must not be allowed to reach out his hand and pick from the tree of life too, and eat and live for ever!’ So Yahweh God expelled him from the garden of Eden, to till the soil from which he had been taken. He banished the man, and in front of the garden of Eden he posted the great winged creatures and the fiery flashing sword, to guard the way to the tree of life.
 

Messenger:       The New Adam and the New Eve

February 5, 2001

Acts 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 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.

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 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.

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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 can see cannot love God whom he has seen. Indeed this is the commandment we have received from him, that whoever loves God, must also love his brother.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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.
    
8. 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.
    
9. 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.

1. 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.'
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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...'
5. 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.
6. 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.'
7. 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 sceptre, 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.
8. 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.'
9. 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.

end of Holy Spirit Novena

July 10, 2005 message continues

Messenger:        What the spiritual exercises are all
                    about is letting go of attachments
                    to want only God's honor and glory.

                        To do all things to please our
                    Heavenly Father.

                        Jesus is the salt of the earth.

                        The crisis God the Father refers
                    to for American priests is really
                    code orange.

                        It is for this reason Our Lady
                    appeared at Clearwater to lead
                    the world to her Son's Movement Shepherds of Christ.

                    If the things Jesus has told us to do
                    and Mary told us to do are done, much
                    suffering with not enough priests
                    could be averted.

                        At Nineveh they repented — I
                    am a messenger delivering the same
                    message a holy Jesuit priest delivered
                    11 years ago.

July 10, 2005 message continues

Messenger:   And the message to circulate the
                        Priestly Newsletter.

                    When Mary appeared to me 500
                        times at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center
                        we were kicked out three times for
                        doing the prayers in the prayer
                        manual and Mary giving me
                        messages about the rosary.

                        Those same messages were in the
                    Red Rosary Book released December 17, 1996
                    the day Mary appeared on the building in Clearwater.

                        What is the message God gives
                    to us in the scriptures when He
                    tells us we were created in His image
                    and likeness and how He created
                    everything and despite their gifts
                    Adam and Eve disobeyed God because
                    of pride and wanting to be as
                    smart as God.

                        Why did Cain kill Abel —

                        Why was Miriam and Aaron
                    jealous of Moses?

                        Why did Joseph's brothers
                    throw him in a cistern?

                        What about Jeremiah?

                        God sent me July 10, 2005
                    as a messenger to deliver the purpose
                    of this retreat.

                        I delivered a message about the
                    scriptures before I read them
                    or heard them —

                        This Movement has effected the
                    lives of billions of souls.

                        Our Lord designed it through
                    the messages I received.

                        I know nothing of such things
                    to write the contents of 7 years
                    of daily messages, 4 Blue Books
                    published, the Red Rosary Book,
                    the Holy Spirit Novena, etc.

                        God wants humility and thanks
                    and prayer during these four days —
                    That is His message this morning
                    that is the message now.

                        Jesus is the salt of the
                    earth.

                        I deliver a message from
                    God of the problems and
                    the medicine.

                        If we were to do as
                    we were doing there would
                    be no need for the message.

                        There will soon be almost
                    no American priests —

                    Listen to me and help me
                    do as God asks.

                        Fr. Carter died and I am
                    the head of this Movement
                    chosen by God. The
                    Movement was formed through
                    these messages.
