Leading us on the way of salvation!
March 11, 2021
Dear Family of Mary!
October 25, 2020 "Dear children, At this time, I am calling you to return to God and to prayer. Invoke the help of all the saints, for them to be an example and a help to you. Satan is strong and is fighting to draw all the more hearts to himself. He wants war and hatred. That is why I am with you for this long, to lead you to the way of salvation, to Him who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Little children, return to the love for God and He will be your strength and refuge. Thank you for having responded to my call."
In the Gospel for today, Jesus expels demons. From Luke 11:14 : “Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute, and when the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke and the crowds were amazed.”
Our Lady has spoken often about the devil, pointing out that he wants war and hatred, that he is strong, that he is fighting to draw more hearts to himself. We know that the devil is our enemy. He wants to lead us away from Jesus. It should not surprise us.
And it should give us great hope and joy to know that Our Lady has been sent by God to us in these days. She has been given the job of leading us to the way of salvation!! She leads us to Him who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life!!! She does this constantly through her presence in Medjugorje and her messages. She does it through her example and her teaching. Our Mother has come to lead us away from Satan - towards God!!
Here are two prayers that we can pray to Our Lady for protection and deliverance from the devil:
August Queen of Heaven
August Queen of Heaven, sovereign Mistress of the Angels, who didst receive from the beginning the mission and the power to crush the serpent’s head, we beseech thee to send thy holy angels, that under thy command and by thy power, they may pursue the evil spirits, encounter them on every side, resist their bold attacks, and drive them hence into the abyss of woe. Most holy Mother, send thy angels to defend us and to drive the cruel enemy from us. All ye holy Angels and Archangels, help and defend us. Amen. O good and tender Mother! Thou shalt ever be our Love and our Hope. Holy Angels and Archangels, keep and defend us. Amen.
The Angelus (which is an exorcism prayer):
The Angel of the Lord declared to Mary,
And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary…
Behold the handmaid of the Lord: Be it done unto me according to Thy word.
Hail Mary...
And the Word was made Flesh: And dwelt among us.
Hail Mary...
Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray:
Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts; that we, to whom the incarnation of Christ, Thy Son, was made known by the message of an angel, may by His Passion and Cross be brought to the glory of His Resurrection, through the same Christ Our Lord. Amen.
But remember it is by following Our Lady as she guides us towards Jesus that we will find our greatest protection. She knows the way. We can follow her in peace and find protection from all evil.
St. Joseph, please help us to follow Our Lady to Jesus!
Dear St. Joseph, foster father of us all, we love you!
You so faithfully stayed by the side of Mary when she gave Jesus to the world the first time. Help us now in our turn to stay faithfully by her side in Medjugorje.
"Dear children! Also in this difficult time God's love sends me to you. My children, do not be afraid, I am with you. With complete trust give me your hearts, that I may help you to recognize the signs of the time in which you live. I will help you to come to know the love of my Son. I will triumph through you. Thank you." (June 2, 2007)
Dear St. Joseph, you were always strong and resolute – in Bethlehem, in Egypt, and in Nazareth. You never wavered from the side of Mary. Help us to be strong and resolute and to never waver from her side.
Dear St. Joseph, help us to be faithful to the call of Our Lady and to witness to her presence in these days. St. Joseph, pray for us!!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
