Creation

CREATION

Excerpts from The Book of Heaven:

Vol. 16, Jan. 2, 1923

“My daughter, come with Me and look at the great void that exists between Heaven and earth. Before my Fiat was pronounced, this great void was horrible to the sight. Everything was disorder; no separation of land, of water, or of mountains could be seen – it was one heap that struck fright. As soon as my Fiat was pronounced, all things rolled about, bumping against one another, and each of them took its place, remaining all ordered with the imprint of my Eternal Fiat; nor can they move if my Fiat does not want it. The earth no longer struck fright; on the contrary, to see the vastness of the seas, their waters no longer muddy but crystal clear, their sweet murmuring, as if the waters were voices speaking softly and quietly among themselves, their roaring waves which sometimes rise so high as to make mountains of water appear, which then fall back again into the same sea - how much beauty does this not contain? How much order - and how much attention does it not earn from creatures? And then, the earth, all green and flowery - how much variety of beauty does it not contain? But this was nothing yet - the void was not completely filled; and just as my Fiat hovered over the earth and separated things and ordered the earth, in the same way, hovering up high, It stretched out the heavens, It adorned them with stars, and in order to fill the void of darkness, It created the sun which, dispelling darkness, filled this great void with light and made all the beauty of all Creation stand out. So, who was the cause of so much good? My omnipotent Fiat. However, this Fiat wanted a void in order to create this machine of the universe.

Now, my daughter, do you see this great void in which I created so many things? Yet, the void of the soul is even greater. The former was to serve as the dwelling place of man; the void of the soul was to serve as the dwelling place of a God. I was not to pronounce my Fiat for six days, as in creating the universe, but for as many days as the life of man contains - and so many times for as many as, putting his own will aside, he would let Mine operate. Therefore, since my Fiat was to do more things than It did in Creation, more space was needed. But do you know who gives Me free field in order to fill this great void of the soul? One who lives in my Will. My Fiats are pronounced repeatedly; each thought is accompanied by the power of my Fiat, and – oh! how many stars adorn the heaven of the intelligence of the soul. Her actions are followed by my Fiat, and – oh! how many suns rise within her. Her words, invested by my Fiat, are sweeter than the murmuring of the waters of the sea, in which the sea of my graces flows in order to fill this great void, and my Fiat delights in forming waves that reach beyond Heaven, and descend again, more loaded, to expand the sea of the soul. My Fiat blows upon her heart, and of her heartbeats It makes fires of love. My Fiat leaves nothing out; It invests each affection, the tendencies, the desires, and forms in them the most beautiful flowerings.

How many things does my Fiat not operate in this great void of the soul who lives in my Will! Oh! how the whole machine of the universe is left behind. The Heavens are astounded; trembling, they watch the omnipotent Fiat operating in the will of the creature, and they feel twice as happy every time this Fiat acts and renews Its creative power. So, they are all attentive around Me, to see when my Fiat is pronounced, in order to collect their double glory and happiness. Oh! if all knew the power of my Fiat and the great good It contains, they would all give themselves prey to my omnipotent Will. Yet, there is much to weep about. How many souls, with these great voids within, are worse than the great void of the universe before my Fiat was pronounced! Since my Fiat does not hover within them, everything is disorder, the darkness is so thick as to strike horror and fright. There is one heap, all mixed together - nothing is in place. The work of Creation is upset in them, because my Fiat alone is order - the human will is disorder.

Therefore, my daughter, if you want order within yourself, let my Fiat be the life of everything in you, and you will give Me the great contentment that my Fiat may be able to unfold, putting out the prodigies and the goods It contains.”

Vol. 20, Sept. 17, 1926

I felt all invested by the Supreme Will, which, drawing me into Its immense light, made me see the order of Creation - how each thing remained at the place assigned by its Creator. My mind wandered and was enraptured at seeing the order, the harmony, the magnificence, the beauty of the whole Creation; and my sweet Jesus, who was with me, said:

“My daughter, each created thing which came out of Our creative hands was assigned its place and its distinct office; and all of them remain at their place, magnifying with incessant praises that Eternal Fiat which dominates them, preserves them, and gives them new life. So, it is because of the motion of Supreme Fiat dominating in them that they are preserved ever beautiful, whole and new. Man too was assigned his place – his office of sovereign over all created things; with the difference that, while all the other things created by Us remained exactly like God had created them - without ever changing, increasing or decreasing - my Will, instead, giving man supremacy over all the works of Our hands, and wanting to display even more love with him, gave him the office to grow continuously in beauty, in sanctity, in wisdom, in richness, to the point of raising him to the Likeness of his Creator - always provided that he would let himself be dominated and guided, to give the Supreme Fiat free field in order to form Its Divine Life in him, so as to form this continuous growth of goods, of beauty and of happiness without end. In fact, without my Will dominating, there can be neither growth nor beauty, nor happiness, nor order, nor harmony. Since my Will is origin, master and beginning of the whole work of Creation, wherever It exists, It has the virtue of preserving Its work beautiful, just as It delivered it. But where It does not exist, the communication of Its vital humors in order to preserve the work delivered by Our hands, is missing. Do you see, then, what a great evil it was for man to withdraw from my Will?

So, all things, even the most tiny, have their place. One can say that they are safe in their home and no one can touch them. They possess abundance of goods, because that Will which flows in them possesses the fount of all goods. They are all in order - harmony is the peace of all. On the other hand, by withdrawing from Our Will, man lost his place; he remained without Our home, exposed to dangers. Everyone can touch him to harm him; the very elements are superior to him because they possess a Supreme Will, while he possesses a degraded human will, which can give him nothing but miseries, weaknesses and passions. Having lost his origin, his place, he has remained without order, disharmonized from all, and enjoys no peace - not even within himself. Therefore, one can say that he is the only being wandering in the whole Creation, to whom nothing is due by right, because We give everything to one who lives in Our Will, for he is in Our home – he is one from Our family. The relations, the bonds of sonship which he possesses by living in It, give him the right to all of Our goods. On the other hand, one who does not live in the Life of my Will, has broken, all at once, all the bonds, all the relations, therefore We consider him as something that does not belong to Us. Oh! If all knew what it means to break up with Our Will, and into what abyss they fall - all would tremble with fright, and would compete in order to return into the Kingdom of the Eternal Fiat, to take back their place, assigned to them by God.

Now, my daughter, since my eternal goodness wants to give man my Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat once again, after he had so ungratefully rejected It, don’t you think this is the most beautiful and greatest gift that I can give to the human generations? But in order to give It, I must form It, constitute It, and make known that which, up to now, is not known about my Will – and with such knowledges about It, as to conquer those who will know them, to love, appreciate and desire to come and live in It. The knowledges will be the chains - but not imposed; rather, they themselves, willingly, will let themselves be bound. The knowledges will be the weapons, the conquering arrows which will conquer the new children of the Supreme Fiat. But do you know what these knowledges possess? The power to change nature into virtue, into good, into my Will, in such a way that they will possess them as their own life.”

On hearing this, I said: ‘My Love, Jesus, if these knowledges about your adorable Will contain so much virtue, why did You not manifest them to Adam, so that, by making them known to posterity, they would have loved and appreciated more a good so great, and their souls would be disposed for the time when You, Divine Repairer, would decree to give us this great gift of the Supreme Fiat.” And Jesus, continuing, added: “My daughter, as long as he remained in the terrestrial Eden, living in the Kingdom of the Supreme Will, Adam possessed all knowledges, as much as it is possible for a creature, of that which belonged to the Kingdom he possessed. But as soon as he went out of It, his intellect was obscured; he lost the light of his kingdom, and could not find the appropriate words in order to manifest the knowledges he had acquired about the Supreme Will. In fact, the Divine Will Itself which would have given him the necessary terms to manifest to others what he had known, was missing in him. This, on his part; more so since every time he remembered his withdrawal from my Will, and the highest good he had lost, he felt such a grip of sorrow as to become taciturn – engrossed in the pain for the loss of a Kingdom so great, and for the irreparable evils which, as much as Adam might do, it was not given to him to repair. That very God whom he had offended was needed in order to remedy them. On the part of his Creator, he received no order, and therefore he was not given enough capacity to manifest it. Why manifest a knowledge if it would not give him the good it contained? Only then do I make a good known, when I want to give it. However, even though Adam did not speak extensively about the Kingdom of my Will, he taught many important things which regarded It. In fact, during the first times of the history of the world up to Noah, the generations had no need of laws, and there were no idolatries, nor diversity of languages; rather, all recognized their one God and had one language, because they cared more about my Will. But as they kept moving away from It, idolatries arose and evils became worse. This is why God saw the necessity of giving His laws as preservers for the human generations.

So, one who does my Will has no need of laws, because my Will is life, is law – It is everything for man. The importance of the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat is immense, and I love It so much, that I am doing more than a new Creation and Redemption. In fact, in Creation my omnipotent Fiat was pronounced only six times in order to dispose It to come out fully ordered. In Redemption I spoke, but since I did not speak about the Kingdom of my Will which contains infinite knowledges and immense goods, I did not have a very extensive subject with many words to say, because everything I taught was of limited nature, and a few words were enough to make it known. But in order to make my Will known, it takes much, my daughter. Its history is extremely long - it encloses an eternity with no beginning and no end; therefore, as much as I speak, I have always something to say. This is why I am saying – oh, how much more! Being more important than anything, It contains more knowledges, more light, more greatness, more prodigies; therefore, more words are necessary. More so, since the more I make known, the more I expand the boundaries of my Kingdom to be given to the children who will possess It. Therefore, everything I manifest about my Will is a new creation which I make in my Kingdom, to be enjoyed and possessed by those who will have the good of knowing It. And so, great attention is required on your part in manifesting them.”

The Gift of Infused Science

"The Gift of Infused Science"

Book of Heaven 

Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta

Volume 30, May 22, 1932

My poor mind swims in the immense sea of the Divine Will. In this sea it murmurs continually, but what does it murmur? Love, praise, thanksgiving, and the Supreme Being makes his murmur met with that of the creature and gives love in order to receive love. What sweet meeting between the Creator and the creature that they give love to each other, and in this exchange of love are formed the waves of love, of light, of indescribable beauties, [in] which the poor creature not being capable of enclosing all in herself, feels drown, and while she has taken who knows how much, the drowning that she feels impedes her from being able to repeat that which she feels in herself of the ineffable secrets of love, of light, of divine knowledges, that the murmur of the Eternal has enclosed in her soul. But while I lost myself in so many knowledges as to not know how to repeat them, I felt myself stutter, I lacked suitable vocabulary, and in order not to blunder I pass on.  And my amiable Jesus, compassionating my incapacity and littleness, squeezed me to himself between his arms and said to me:

“My blessed daughter, you have reason that your littleness feels drown under the immensity of my light, of my love and of the innumerable truths that our adorable and holy Being contains. But our Power and immensity delights itself to fill the creature so much with light, with love, with our various knowledges, with sanctity, even to drown her, and one of the most beautiful scenes is to see the creature as drowned in our immensity, that she wants to speak and she is drown with light, with love, with surprising truths. Oh, how beautiful it is that she wants to speak of that which she feels, and our waves invest her and reduce her to silence! However we with this way make a display of ourselves with our beloved creature, and we do as a Teacher that wants to make a display of his science with his little disciple. He puts forth all of that which he knows, and the disciple listens, it fills the mind, the heart. But since they’re so many things that [the teacher] has said, [the disciple] doesn’t know how to repeat anything, but however it serves to make her appreciate and love the teacher, and to hope for the heights where she can arrive of his science. Being under his direction, it serves the teacher in order to make himself known and to receive the attention and affection and fidelity of the disciple. Thus do we: in order to make ourselves known and in order to make ourselves loved, when we see the creature empty of everything, that she doesn’t want other than our Divine Will, we delight so much even to drown her with light, with love and with our truths that pertain to us, and then we go cutting it up for her little by little of that which we have infused all together, and thus we delight in adapting ourselves to her little capacity.”

“Now you should know that one who lives in the Divine Will will reacquire, between so many prerogatives, the gift of infused science, a gift that will be a guide for her in order to know our Divine Being, that will facilitate her carrying out of the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat in her soul. It will be (a) guide for her in the order of natural things, it will be as the hand that guides her in everything, and it will make known the palpating life of the Divine Volition in all created things and the good that it continually brings her. This gift was given to Adam in the beginning of his creation, together with our Divine Will he possessed the gift of infused science, in a way that he knew with clarity our divine truths. Not alone, but all the beneficial virtues that all created things possessed to (the) good of the creature, from the greatest thing, even to the littlest blade of grass. Now as he rejected our Divine Will with doing his, our Fiat withdrew his life and the gift with which he had been bearer of. Hence [Adam] remained in the dark, without the true and pure light of the knowledge of all things. Whence with the life of my Will returning in the creature, his gift of the infused science will return.”

“This gift is inseparable from my Divine Will as light from the heat is inseparable, and where He reigns he forms the eye full of light in the depth of the soul, which by looking with this divine eye she acquires the knowledge of God and of created things, for how much it is possible for a creature. Now my Will withdrawing himself, the eye remains blind, because He who animates the life has departed, that is he is no longer the working life of the creature. It happens as to the body: even to such that the eye is healthy she sees, she distinguishes the colors, the objects, the people. But if the pupil becomes dark and she loses the light she remains blind. Hence, she doesn’t know how to distinguish anything anymore. At the most she will be helped by way of feeling in order to know and understand something. But her light is spent and is finished. Perhaps she will have eyes, but no longer full of the life of light, but of dense darkness that are bearers of sorrow to the lost sight. Such is my Will. Where He reigns he centralizes in the soul this gift of infused science, that more than eye sees and understands, but without effort: divine truths, the most difficult knowledges of our Supreme Being, but with a marvelous facility, without artifice and without study. More so [for] the natural things, [of which] no one can know the substance, the good that there is within, if not he who has created them. Hence no wonder if our Divine Volition makes himself revealer of our Divine Being and of the things that He himself has created in the soul where he reigns and not reigning, everything is darkness for the poor creature. Our children are blind and don’t know nor do they love He who has created them, who more than Father loves them and longs for the love of his children. My Divine Will where he reigns he doesn’t go with empty hands, but brings all the goods that he possesses. And if ungrateful they constrain him to withdraw, he brings everything with himself, because he is inseparable from his goods. He does as the sun: as the morning rises, thus it gifts the earth with its light and its beneficial effects, and as the evening withdraws, it brings all the light with itself, nothing remains, not even a drop of light for the night. And why? Because it can not nor is it able to detach one single particle of light, because it is inseparable from its light, and where it goes with the fullness of light that it possesses it forms the full day. Therefore be attentive, because where my Will reigns he wants to do great things, he wants to give everything, nor does he adapt himself to do little things, but he wants to form the full day and to show off in gifts and with magnificence.”

Volume 33, December 10, 1933

     … “You see therefore the beginning of the life of Adam was an act full of love toward God with all his being, what sublime lesson, as the beginning of love should race in all the work of the creature. The first lesson that he received from our Supreme Being, in the exchange of his I love you, was that while he loved tenderly responding to him I love you, he gave him the first lesson on our Divine Will and while he instructed him he communicated the life to him of Him and the infused science of what our Divine Fiat means and every time that turn he said to us I love you, our love prepared for him other more beautiful lessons on our Volition. He remained enraptured and we delighted ourselves in conversing with him and we made flow over him rivers of love and perennial joys, so that the human life became enclosed by Us in love and in our Will.

    “Therefore my daughter, there is no greater sorrow for Us, than to see our love as broken in the creature and our Will impeded, smothered, without his working life and as subject to the human volition. Hence be attentive and in all things have for beginning love and my Divine Will.”

 Volume 36, June 26, 1938

    "... united with my Will, inside of her, she will hold the Teacher to her disposition, (so) that he will teach her the highest and most difficult sciences, the most beautiful arts, so much so as to be able to be a portent of science on earth and in heaven. The human will united with mine, will hold human legs and divine feet that will make it race in the way of good without ever tiring; it will hold human arms and divine motion that will hold (the) virtue of doing the greatest works, that resembles her Creator; with our divine motion she will embrace eternity, she will hold us always courted and pressed to her heart; united with our Will, she will hold the human mouth, but the word, the voice will be divine. And oh, how well we will speak of our supreme being! In short, she will hold our eye, through which, looking at all created things she will recognize in them our life, our love, and how she must love us; united to ours she will hold divine reason, she will feel a species of infused science, which will form an ordered man, all in order with her Creator; everything will convert into good, rather, there is no good that she won’t possess if she lives in our Will. She is the true failure of all the evils, of all the misfortunes, and recalls to life all the goods, because she possesses the source of it.

    “Beyond this, for one who lives in our Volition, every motion, breath, heartbeat, all that which one can do, are continuous conquests that she does, and divine conquests; I can say that living in my Volition, one breathes with my breath, one moves to my motion, one beats with my eternal palpitation. So that she acquires the conquering act in all her acts and this becomes given to her with justice and with exuberant love, because with living in ours, giving no more life to her volition, with right she should be in the celestial region, in order to feel happy and to enjoy our felicitating Will. Now, in order to live in our Will on earth, the poor daughter deprives herself of the joys of heaven; this is the most heroic act, the most intense love, which all heaven, our divinity, the Sovereign (Lady) of heaven, remain wounded and love the heroism of this creature, and oh, how everyone loves her!

    “And our love, that never lets itself be conquered by anyone, cedes/surrenders in every breath of hers, to her little motion, if she thinks, if she looks, if she speaks, the conquering and divine act. The conquests are innumerable; we feel that it is not the creature that breathes, that moves, but us, and we give it the value that our breath and motion contains, that all the possible and imaginable values contains. So that she is the conqueror of our life and acts. This happy creature, with her conquering act, becomes our outlet of continuous love, our own happiness, our rest; and her conquests are continuous signatures on our decree of the coming of the Kingdom of our Volition upon the earth; these conquests shorten the time; more so that our working life is no longer estranged upon the earth, but already exists and has formed his Kingdom in this fortunate creature. Hence be attentive; never stop yourself, and I will keep count of everything, even of (your) breath, in order to love you more and in order to have you make so many conquests, one more beautiful than the other.”

    Afterwards he added: “My daughter, as the creature lets me make I am of her will in order to live in mine, I make for her (a) gift of mine. But do you know what my Will does before giving himself? He pours himself upon the act of her, he embellishes it, forms the day, sanctifies it, puts there his divine joys, and then encloses himself in the act of the creature. As my Fiat works in this act, all created things receive new life, new creation, they feel renewed in beauty, in love, in the joy of one’s Creator; and as he completes his divine act, the act remains of the creature and everyone remains in expectation in order to see what the creature does with this act, because it is an act that encloses everything, and everyone feels enclosed in that act; and the happy creature, what does she do? She enjoys it, she kisses and embraces it, and knowing that an act so great cannot remain for herself alone, she says in her emphasis of love of joy: ‘Adorable Will, you have given me Divine Will, and I give you Divine Will, in order to make you the exchange, the thanksgiving, the glory, the joy, the love that you have given me; I am incapable of being able to contain it! ‘Therefore, this act races to everyone, sanctifies, embellishes, felicitates, gives honor to everyone. This is the most beautiful act that the creature can give me; no one can equal this act, that is to give my Will in order to receive it and to give it again.”

 “Now you should know that one who lives in the Divine Will will reacquire, between so many prerogatives, the gift of infused science, a gift that will be a guide for her in order to know our Divine Being, that will facilitate her carrying out the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat in her soul."

  "Where He reigns He centralizes in the soul this gift of infused science, that more than eye sees and understands, but without effort: divine truths, the most difficult knowledges of our Supreme Being, but with a marvelous facility, without artifice and without study. More so [for] the natural things, [of which] no one can know the substance, the good that there is within, if not he who has created them."

The Mysteries of Light

THE LUMINOUS MYSTERIES – THE MYSTERIES OF LIGHT IN THE DIVINE WILL

The Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan: 

 The Baptism of Fire: 

“My daughter, the baptism at birth is by water, therefore it has the virtue of purifying, but not of removing tendencies and passions. On the other hand, the baptism of victim is baptism by fire, therefore it has not only the virtue of purifying, but of consuming any passion and evil tendency. Even more, I Myself baptize the soul, bit by bit: my thought baptizes the thought of the soul; my heartbeat baptizes her heartbeat; my desire her desire, and so on. However, this baptism is carried out between Myself and the soul, according to whether she gives herself to Me without ever taking back what she has given Me.  Book of Heaven, Vol. 11, Mar. 13, 1912

“My daughter, I recommend that you not get out of my Will, because my Will contains such power as to be a new Baptism for the soul - and even more than Baptism itself. In fact, while in the Sacraments there is part of my Grace, in my Will there is the whole fullness of It. In the Baptism, the stain of original sin is removed, but passions and weaknesses remain. In my Will, since the soul destroys her own volition, she also destroys passions, weaknesses and all that is human; and she lives of the virtues, of the fortitude and of all the Divine qualities.”  Book of Heaven, Vol. 9, Mar. 23, 1910

“I saw God’s Holy Spirit – as a devastating fire – inundate the world.  This fire did not bring peace, not mercy, but devastating punishment.  Where ever the flame of the Holy Spirit swept through, the evil spirits by the thousands fell back to hell.”  (Sr. Natalia, The Victorious Queen of the World) 

The Wedding Feast of Cana:

Now listen to Me: my Son had come back from the desert, and was preparing Himself for His public life; but first He wanted to be present at this wedding, and therefore He allowed Himself to be invited. We went there, not to celebrate, but to work great things for the good of the human generations. My Son took the place of Father and King in the families, and I took the place of Mother and Queen. With Our presence We renewed the sanctity, the beauty, the order of the marriage formed by God in the Garden of Eden – that of Adam and Eve – married by the Supreme Being in order to populate the earth, and to multiply and increase the future generations. Marriage is the substance from which the life of the generations arises; it can be called the trunk from which the earth is populated. The priests, the religious, are the branches; but if it were not for the trunk, not even the branches would have life. Therefore, through sin, by withdrawing from the Divine Will, Adam and Eve caused the family to lose sanctity, beauty and order. And I, your Mama, the new innocent Eve, together with my Son, went to reorder that which God did in Eden; I constituted Myself Queen of families, and impetrated the grace that the Divine Fiat might reign in them, to have families that would belong to Me, and I might hold the place of Queen in their midst.  (The Virgin Mary in the Kingdom of the Divine Will)

          .  “Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of the Lamb.”  Rev. 21:9-27, Rev. 22:6 “And behold, I am coming soon.”    

Proclamation of the Kingdom:

“As you write new things concerning Me and all that is related to Me, I invent new favors with which to reward you and I prepare to reveal to you new truths so that I can give you new rewards. I have always loved more, and have reserved greater graces for, those who have written about Me, because they are the continuation of my life of evangelization, the spokesmen of my word. I reserved what is not contained in my gospels to reveal it to whoever would write about Me. My life of preaching did not end then.... with the death of my Humanity. No, I must preach always, as long as there are generations of creatures."  Book of Heaven, Vol. 14, Feb. 14, 1922

“…in my all-seeingness, I see that these writings will be for my Church as a new Sun that will rise in its midst and then, attracted by its brilliant light, would apply themselves to transporting themselves into this light and go forth spiritualized and divinized by which, renewing the Church, they will transform the faith of the earth.”   Book of Heaven, Vol. 16, Feb. 10, 1924

The Transfiguration:

“My daughter, do you see how beautiful is the Sun of my Will?  What power!  What marvel!  In as far as the soul wishes to fuse itself in it to embrace everyone, my Will, transforming Itself into Sun, wounds the soul and forms another sun in her.  Once these acts are formed, they are changed to rays that wound the Sun of the Supreme Will.  And, enclosing everyone in this light, everyone glorifies and satisfies their Creator.  And what is more, it does not do this with human glory, satisfaction, or love, but the love and glory of the Divine Will, because the Sun of my Will has operated in her.  Do you see what it means to do acts in my Will?  This is living in my Volition:  That the Sun of my Will, transforming into sun the human will, act in her as in Its own center."  Book of Heaven, Vol. 17, Sept. 17, 1924

            “When Jesus will return in His divine glory and appear to all humanity, each one will be called to undergo the same experience as Peter, James and John underwent on Mount Tabor, because Jesus will manifest Himself in his splendor and his humanity will be completely transfigured in the most brilliant light of his divinity.”  (To the Priests, MMP #597)

“…through the power of the Spirit who dwells in man deification already begins on earth; the creature is transfigured and God’s kingdom inaugurated.”  The Light of the East, Pope John Paul II

The Institution of the Eucharist:

“I wanted to hide Myself under these Eucharistic veils and, so hidden, enter into her to form this transformation of the creature into Myself.  But in order for this transformation to take place, the dispositions were needed on the part of creatures; and my love, giving in to excess, in instituting the Sacrament of the Eucharist, released from within my Divinity more graces, gifts, favors and light for the good of man, to render him worthy to receive Me.” Book of Heaven, Vol. 15, March 27, 1923

“Listen my daughter, when I instituted the Eucharistic Supper I saw and called all to come to Me, all generations, from the first to the last man, so that I could give to all my Sacramental Life, and not just once but just as often as man needs corporal nourishment.  I desired to constitute Myself as the nourishment of their souls.  But I felt very abused when I realized that this, my Sacramental Life, was encompassed by indifference, by carelessness, and even by ruthless death. I felt all the crudeness of the death of my Sacramental Life, and so painfully, so repeatedly. But then I took a better look and, making use of the Power of my Will, I called around Me the souls that were to live in my Will, and oh, how happy I felt!”  Book of Heaven,  Vol. 14, July 6, 1922

“Jesus instituted the Sacrament of the Eucharist saying, ‘This is My Body, this is My Blood.’  And before twenty-four hours had passed, with the same lips He pronounced, “Behold your mother”, and it was because He not only gave Himself to you in order to nourish you as your food, but also to give me to you as your mother.”  Roses and Thorns, Concepcion Cabrera de Armida

            “…you can very well shrink all of yourself within my Will to be able to form the host of yourself in my Will.  For every act you do in my Will, you will make a host for Me; and I will feed Myself from you, as you do from Me.  What forms the host?  “ My own Life in it.”  Book of Heaven, Vol. 12, Oct. 20, 1917

“This last stage of the world belongs very specially to Him (the Holy Spirit) that He be honored and exalted…”  (Jesus to Conchita)

“My child, I entrust you with this message that you must make known to my children in America.   I wish it to be the country dedicated to my purity.  The wonders I will work will be the wonders of the soul.  They must have faith and believe firmly in my love for them.  I desire that they be the children of my Pure Heart.  I desire, through my children of America, to further the cause of faith and purity among peoples and nations.  Let them come to me with confidence and simplicity, and I, their Mother, will teach them to become pure like to my Heart that their own hearts may be more pleasing to the Heart of my Son.”  Sept. 25, 1956

“I come to you, O children of America, as a last resort. I plead with you to listen to my voice. Cleanse your souls in the Precious Blood of My Son. Live in His Heart, and take me in that I may teach you to live in great purity of heart which is so pleasing to God. Be my army of chaste soldiers, ready to fight to the death to preserve the purity of your souls. I am the Immaculate One, Patroness of your land. Be my faithful children as I have been your faithful Mother.  These are my words, O my daughter. Make them known to my children. I desire to make the whole of America my shrine by making every heart accessible to the love of my Son.”  Sept. 27, 1956

Our Lady then asked me to draw a picture of her first appearance. She also requested a statue made according to this likeness and placed, after being solemnly carried in procession, in the Shrine of The Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C. She wishes to be honored there in a special way as Our Lady of America, the Immaculate Virgin.  Nov.15, 1956

"Tell the Bishops of the United States, my loyal sons, of my desires and how I wish them to be carried out. Through him who is head over you, make known the longings of my Immaculate Heart to establish the reign of my Divine Son in the hearts of men and thus save them from the scourge of heaven, both now and hereafter."  Our Lady, again addressing herself to me, spoke sadly yet hopefully:  "My daughter, will my children in America listen to my pleadings and console my Immaculate Heart? Will my loyal sons carry out my desires and thus help me bring the peace of Christ once again to mankind?”  Jan., 1957

“My beloved daughter, what I am about to tell you concerns in a particular way my children in America. Unless they do penance by mortification and self-denial and thus reform their lives, God will visit them with punishments hitherto unknown to them.”  Sept,. 1957

"What happens to the world depends upon those who are living in it. There must be much more good than evil prevailing in order to prevent the holocaust that is so near approaching. Yet I tell you, My daughter, that even should such a destruction happen because there were not enough souls who took My warnings seriously, there will remain a remnant untouched by the chaos who, having been faithful in following Me and spreading My warnings, will gradually inhabit the earth again with their dedicated and holy lives. These souls will renew the earth in the power and light of the Holy Spirit, and these faithful children of Mine will be under My protection, and that of the Holy Angels, and they will partake of the life of the Divine Trinity in a most remarkable way. Let my dear children know this, precious daughter, so that the will have no excuse if they fail to heed my warnings.”  Jan. 3, 1984

Prayer to Our Lady of America, Patroness of our Land

Written at the behest of Our Lady, October 5, 1956 by Sister Mary Ephrem (Mildred Neuzil)

Oh Immaculate Mother, Queen of our country, open our hearts, our homes, and our land to the

coming of Jesus, your Divine Son. With Him, reign over us, O heavenly Lady, so pure and so

bright with the radiance of Gods light shining in and about you. Be our leader against the powers

of evil set upon wresting the world of souls, redeemed at such a great cost by the sufferings of

your Son and of yourself, in union with Him, from that same Savior, Who loves us with infinite

charity.

We gather about you, O chaste and holy Mother, Virgin Immaculate, Patroness of our beloved

Land, determined to fight under your banner of holy purity against the wickedness that would

make all the world an abyss of evil, without God and without your loving maternal care.

We consecrate our hearts, our homes, our Land to your Most Pure Heart, O great Queen, that the

kingdom of your Son, our Redeemer and our God, may be firmly established in us.

We ask no special sign of you, sweet Mother, for we believe in your great love for us, and we

place in you our entire confidence. We promise to honor you by faith, love, and the purity of our

lives according to your desire.

Reign over us, then, O Virgin Immaculate, with your Son Jesus Christ. May His Divine Heart

and your most chaste Heart be ever enthroned and glorified among us. Use us, your children of

America, as your instruments of peace among men and nations. Work your miracle of grace in

us, so that we may be a glory to the Blessed Trinity, Who created, redeemed, and sanctifies us.

May your valiant spouse, St. Joseph, with the holy Angels and Saints, assist you and us in

"renewing the face of the earth." Then when our work is over, come, Holy Immaculate Mother,

and as our Victorious Queen, lead us to the eternal kingdom, where your Son reigns forever as

King.  Amen

This message was given by Our Lady through Fr. Gobbi (Marian Movement of Priests) on May 17, 1987 - 

“My motherly Heart wants to save all of this so great nation.  I welcome you today, O America, into the refuge of my Immaculate Heart.  I put myself at your side to help you to recover.  I myself am traveling your roads in search of all my poor children, wandering, sick marginalized, wounded, stricken, abandoned and betrayed.  I welcome you into My Heart today, O Church of my Jesus, who are living and suffering here, O Church, one, holy, catholic, apostolic, united to my Pope of Rome.  The times of your sufferings are now counted.  Soon you will flower again, when my Immaculate Heart will have its triumph, and your light will return to shine with such intensity that it will draw all those who live in this great continent.  From my shrine (Nat’l Shrine pf the Immaculate Conception, Washington D.C.)  I encourage you all, and I bless you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.”

The New Heavens and The New Earth

Lynne Bauer, Oct. 16, 1996

Added from my notes:   

During Adoration this morning, I asked Our Lord for guidance in knowing how He wanted me to use the gifts He has given to me. He spoke saying, "My little one, do you not know that it was I who called you here (to the Adoration chapel)? Pray for your brothers and sisters. I need more prayers and sacrifices - I am losing so many souls. The darkness will become even darker before the Light comes. You will be as lambs among wolves." I told Him I was sorry for missing Mass this morning (I had already asked Him earlier in the morning to forgive me) - He said, "Never look back My child, only pray!  The Holy Spirit had inspired a prayer in me the last two days something like this: Come Lord and water this parched desert with your heavenly dew. Let the fountains of water flow from you heart as rivers across the dry land watering it so that the seeds sprout and grow into beautiful flowers nourished by the Sun. I immediately understood that the New Heavens and New Earth spoken of in Revelations was to come into our own hearts, and that our hearts would become as flowers springing up and growing into blossoms nourished by the Sun. 

When I got home from the chapel, I picked up the book "True Life in God" (Vassula) to read. Jesus said to Vassula, "The New Heavens and the New Earth will be when I will set My throne in you." "Allow my Holy Spirit to come to you as a roaring fire and purify you by burning all the dry plants (bad habits, sins) remaining in you and replace them with celestial seedlings and delightful vineyards," "winter is past, and the flowers (virtues) appear on your soil - the vineyard is forming its first flowers giving out their fragrance - this is Our Paradise.. "all the fruits are the virtues that are agreeable in Our Eyes...

THE NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH

See, because Creation has not moved from my Will in anything, the sky is always azure and starry, the sun is full of light and heat. The whole Creation is in perfect harmony; one thing is support of the other. It is always beautiful, fresh, young; It never grows old, nor does It lose one shadow of Its beauty; on the contrary, It seems that each day It rises as more majestic, giving a sweet enchantment to all creatures. So would man have been, had he not withdrawn from my Will; and so are the souls who live in my Will: they are the new heavens, the new suns, the new earth - all flowery; even more, more varied with beauty and enchantment.”   Book of Heaven, Vol. 13, May 1, 1921

The Fiat issued the Creation, and from the Fiat It receives continuous preservation. If my Fiat withdrew, It would resolve into nothing; and if It remains intact, without changing, it is because It has not gone out of the Fiat. However, I have not repeated a new Fiat, otherwise other new heavens, other new suns and stars would come out, but one different from the other. On the other hand, in the soul who lives in my Will it is not just one Fiat, but repeated Fiats. Therefore, as the soul operates in my Will, I repeat the Fiat, and new heavens are extended, new suns and stars; and since the soul contains an intelligence, these heavens are new heavens of love, of glory, of light, of adoration, of knowledge - forming such variety of beauty that I Myself remain enraptured. The whole of Heaven, the Saints, the Angels, cannot detach their gaze from her, because while they are looking at the variety of the heavens that she contains, other new ones extend, one more beautiful than the other. They see the Celestial Fatherland copied in the soul who lives in my Will - the multiplicity of the new things multiply to the infinite.  Book of Heaven, Vol. 13, Aug. 20, 1921

 “My daughter, what is not enjoyed today, will be enjoyed tomorrow; what now seems darkness because it finds blind minds, will turn into Sun tomorrow for those who have eyes. How much good they will do. So, let's keep doing what we've done. Let's do what is needed from our side so that nothing may be missing of help, light, good and surprising truth to make my Will known and to make It reign. I will use every means of love, grace and chastisement. I will touch all sides of creatures in order to have my Will reign. When it will seem that the true good is about to die, then, it will rise again more beautiful and majestic."  Book of Heaven, Vol. 36, Sept. 18, 1938

Our Lady through Fr. Gobbi, Marian Movement of Priests, #505, Nov. 21, 1993

“The glorious reign of Christ will be above all established in hearts and souls.”  “The glorious reign of Christ will correspond to a general flowering of holiness and purity, of love and justice, of joy and peace.  For the hearts of men will be transformed by the powerful force of the Holy Spirit…”  “The glorious reign of Christ will be established after the complete defeat of satan and all the spirits of evil and the destruction of satans diabolical power.  “The glorious reign of Christ will coincide with the triumph of the Eucharistic reign of Jesus…”  “Your heavenly Mother is leading you on toward these new heavens and this new earth, the Mother who is gathering you today from every part of the world to prepare you to receive the Lord who is coming.”

 Our Lady through Fr. Gobbi, Marian Movement of Priests, #536, Jan. 1, 1995

“Sufferings never before experienced are awaiting you, because the moment of a universal renewal is drawing close.  Satan will be defeated; the power of evil will be destroyed; Jesus will restore His glorious reign among you, and in this way the new heavens and the new earth will be formed.  Without an extraordinary intervention of my motherly love, you would not be able to support the pain of the great trial which has now come for all.”

“The acts done in my Will, carrying the Creative Power within themselves, will be the new salvation of man; and descending from Heaven, they will bring all goods upon earth.  They will bring the New Era, and the triumph over human iniquity.”  Book of Heaven, Volume 12 - April 26, 1921

“The world is exactly at the same point as when I was about to come upon earth.  All were awaiting a great event, a new era, as indeed occurred.  The same now; since the great event, the new era in which the Will of God may be done on earth as It is in Heaven, is coming – everyone is awaiting this new era, tired of the present one, but without knowing what this new thing, this change is about, just as they did not know it when I came upon earth.”  Book of Heaven, Volume 15 - July 14, 1923

“The glorious reign of Christ will be above all established in hearts and souls.”  “The glorious reign of Christ will correspond to a general flowering of holiness and purity, of love and justice, of joy and peace.  For the hearts of men will be transformed by the powerful force of the Holy Spirit…”  “The glorious reign of Christ will be established after the complete defeat of satan and all the spirits of evil and the destruction of satans diabolical power.  “The glorious reign of Christ will coincide with the triumph of the Eucharistic reign of Jesus…”  “Your heavenly Mother is leading you on toward these new heavens and this new earth, the Mother who is gathering you today from every part of the world to prepare you to receive the Lord who is coming.”  MMP, #505, Nov. 21, 1993

“The new era, which I announce to you, coincides with the complete fulfillment of the Divine Will, so that at last there is coming about that which Jesus taught you to ask for from the Heavenly Father: ‘Your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven.’”  From the perfect fulfillment of the Divine Will, the whole world is becoming renewed because God finds there, as it were, His new garden of Eden where He can dwell in loving companionship with His creatures.”  MMP, #453, Aug. 15, 1991

“Sufferings never before experienced are awaiting you, because the moment of a universal renewal is drawing close.  Satan will be defeated; the power of evil will be destroyed; Jesus will restore His glorious reign among you, and in this way the new heavens and the new earth will be formed.  Without an extraordinary intervention of my motherly love, you would not be able to support the pain of the great trial which has now come for all.”  MMP #536, Jan. 1, 1995

CCC #671 Though already present in his Church, Christ's reign is nevertheless yet to be fulfilled "with power and great glory" by the King's return to earth. This reign is still under attack by the evil powers, even though they have been defeated definitively by Christ's Passover. Until everything is subject to him, "until there be realized new heavens and a new earth in which justice dwells, the pilgrim Church, in her sacraments and institutions, which belong to this present age, carries the mark of this world which will pass, and she herself takes her place among the creatures which groan and travail yet and await the revelation of the sons of God." That is why Christians pray, above all in the Eucharist, to hasten Christ's return by saying to him: Marana tha! "Our Lord, come!"

Isaiah 46:9-11 Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is no other, I am God, and there is no one like me: Declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times the things which have not been done, saying: My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure.” 

Revelations 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Revelations 21:5 And he that sat on the throne, said: Behold, I make all things new. And he said to me: Write, for these words are most faithful and true.

“Await with a penitent soul the coming of the great age which is getting closer and closer with each day!”  Victorious Queen of the World 

Isaiah 65:17-21

Thus says the LORD: Lo, I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; The things of the past shall not be remembered or come to mind. Instead, there shall always be rejoicing and happiness in what I create; For I create Jerusalem to be a joy and its people to be a delight; I will rejoice in Jerusalem and exult in my people. No longer shall the sound of weeping be heard there, or the sound of crying; No longer shall there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not round out his full lifetime; He dies a mere youth who reaches but a hundred years, and he who fails of a hundred shall be thought accursed. They shall live in the houses they build, and eat the fruit of the vineyards they plant.
