Heavenly Assurance vs. Earthly Fortifications and Buildup

Jesus says: A man, even the strongest one, can be killed by a fly. Even the most fortified town can be taken by storm when neither man nor town enjoy God's protection, which vanishes or is driven away by the sins of man or of the town.

The Prophet goes on to say: All flesh is grass and all its glory is like a wild flower. The grass withers, the flower fades as soon as the breath of the Lord has blown on them.


A town can sin, so can a corporation.


Peace and Happy Easter

We need God's protection badly in this Country.  

Pray without Ceasing day and night.  

The unborn who are pure and were taken before birth, are sacrifices to God for the sins of impure men.  They were spared from becoming sinful.  I wish I was one of them.  

How pure are the souls of children before God?  

Innocence before the age of reasoning; reasoning to discern between Good and Evil.

Pray evermore more than you'ver ever done, Visit the Lord in the Tabernacle, He's waiting for each of us to come and Adore Him.
If you do this He will reward you. He will compensate you, even if you have to take an hour from work.

Peace

How right you are bhokuto. I think of back then when the saints had much less fewer distractions. Today satan is targeting us from every direction. I also imagine, and believe very strongly, that blessings and graces are more abundant in our days than before. Because there are indeed more temptations and distractions.The fight is a difficult one for me. I stumble more times than i can count. But i am grateful to ALmighty God for His graces that keep me struggling to keep fighting.

 

This is a wonderful reminder. And is something i needed to hear at this time. thank you

Bless you,

purity
chastity
holiness

these are God's attributes.  These are required. How much of it is needed on the Earth to weigh in favor of man, is not known, but to God alone.

When Noah was the only one spared means something, a BIG something.
The rest didn't fit in some measure of God's measuring system.

We are grossly approaching Noah's amount and spread of sin in the whole world.

Don't have time to worry about non-Heavenly things. Have to be before God, in prayer.  Prayer is the key.  If you can't make it to the Tabernacle, bring holy things into your house, work place, car, on your person.  Have them blessed first.  

Have to convert these things from "human thinking" to spiritual reality.
They look material but, they are instruments of spiritual advantages.

Crucifix, Holy Face of Jesus, Blessed Mother Statues and Pictures,
Blessed salt, water.

If you live in a predominantly heathen neighborhood you need these things.   (apartment buildings are the worst)

Satan and his followers are crawling allover the place, they've been let loose from Hell.  Pope Leo's vision of the future.

Protection Prayer to St. Michael.
The St. Michael Chaplet is also very Highly recommended, this calls on the 9 choirs of angels for help!

But the most powerful prayers are Rosary, Divine Mercy, Holy Face devotion adoring Jesus Face Shroud of Turin for increasing God's Graces into your's and sinners lives for conversion.  Bring these before Adoration, Eucharistic and Tabernacle.  Watch your prayers take off!
Unbelievable!  Daily Mass is needed too!

People are attracted to light naturally.  That's the way God created us.
Satan comes as an angle of light attracting pepple with false light.

Have to train your soul to know the difference, false light, vs. true light.
That's it in a nutshell.  The more we see God's light and take it in,
the more your soul is better equiped to know the difference.

The mind and eyes are easily tricked!  That is why it is hard for people who stay away from Church, blessed Sacrament, to come. Their minds are instructed to go to the next event in your life, which is everything but adoring God.  

The eyes are the gateway into your soul, is what Jesus says in the Gospel.  If your eye be single how great is that light?  If your eye be other wise how great is that darkness?  

Peace
