Main Tel: +1(800) 748-1047 Fidelis I. Agbapuruonwu, Esq. (MODERATOR) March 27, 2023 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ: Our Lord Jesus Christ appealed to us as follows: “Children, I Am not satisfied until I see a complete compilation of all My Messages, starting from 1st January 1997 to the present, without any error. (Jesus, July 29, 2000). “I say: Edit My Messages well and compile them with clear edition. This is the greatest treasure you have. No Gift I gave you in this devotion is greater than this.” (Jesus, January 5, 2003). “I Am appealing to all My apostles and My warriors to see that My Messages reach the ends of the world.” (Jesus, September 14, 2000). “Listen to My last instruction: Do not restrict anyone from spreading My Messages to the world. But no one is allowed to spread error. Give the pure form of My Messages to the world; I will be satisfied. (Jesus, September 6, 2000). “Jesus said: ‘Publish My Love and Mercy, so that My people will know My Judgment before they stand in My Judgment Court.’” (Our Lady, July 15, 2001). In light of the above Appeals of Jesus, we have decided to compile, edit and publish all of Heaven’s Messages to us in the Precious Blood Apostolate. The cost for the first two volumes of the Messages is $26,507.97. I have attached herein the cover of the first volume. The Apostolate of The Precious Blood of Jesus Christ, U.S.A.

- MARCH REPARATION LESSONS/MESSAGES (Thursday/3rd Friday)
1 ST PILGRIMAGE MESSAGE OF THE FIRST LESSON 6 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA YOUR SOUL IS YOUR GREATEST OFFER TO ME. As we were praying, I saw the vision of a Chalice with a Crown of Thorns, around it and a tongue of fire on its mouth. Divine rays radiated from the mouth of the Chalice and brightened up the whole place. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, appeared the Sacred Head crowned with thorns, Who calmly said: “Children, the greatest preparation I am giving to you is the Living Sanctuary I am making your souls. This is My greatest Seal. But even now, none of you understands that your soul is a little Heaven. The greatest offer you will give Me is your soul; Make it a Living Tabernacle for Me. I am willing to come and live there. I will make it My everlasting residence. Children, this is the everlasting Tabernacle, your very soul, which I am purifying with My sanctifying grace. Give it to Me and for Me alone. This earthly tabernacle will close forever on the last day; but My Living Tabernacle in your very souls will remain forever, I say, for those who love Me. Children, welcome your lonely Master, your Saviour and your Lover. I am all alone. I am all abandoned with a Crown of Thorns. Iniquity has filled My Holy Sanctuary of your souls. Children, that Temple will suffer greatly, the Temple, from which the Glory of its God will depart. The enemy will march over it and destroy the Temple. Be certain that you are not the Temple. On the day when the enemy of My Holy Death will rise to fight the Holy Temple, all the deserted Sanctuaries will be destroyed. I mean your very sanctuary. Your soul, the Ark of the Covenant will be carried to the land of the foreigners. The house of Israel will go on an exile. Children, I know that you will little understand how this will be. What I mean is the capturing of your souls by the power of darkness. The exile of the house of Israel, which means your exile in the land of the wicked spirit, will manifest in this physical world. I say to you children, that it shall happen to all the deserted Tabernacles of My Church as it will happen to all the deserted Tabernacles of your very souls. Know you, children, that the greatest agony you will suffer during the hour of the great Tribulation is the departure of the Glory of your God from His Tabernacle of your very souls, I mean the sinful souls. Pray, and observe the Seal Hour I gave you. Confess your sins to a Priest with a sincere heart, and repent. This is a true renewal of the seal. I will visit your souls with My Sanctifying Grace during the Hour of Seal. I will let My Divine Light chase away the darkness of your very souls. I will purify them. I will live there in fullness. When the enemy of My Holy Death comes, I will protect you. They will not destroy My Temple because the Glory of your God am living there in My fullness. Barnabas, write out the inspirations I gave you in the desert. I will make the full meaning of the Living Sanctuary of your souls clear to the world. Do this quickly because I have many things to teach My people for preparation. Children, you will offer your prayers tomorrow for your own exile during the hour of the coming Tribulation. Ask much for the grace of faith and endurance. When the hour comes, you will see the Evil Man forcing all men to receive his evil seal. At that time, you will remember My begging voice that appealed to you to receive the Heavenly Seal, but the hour of Heavenly Seal will have passed. The hour is the hour of darkness, when the power of darkness rules. All who received the evil seal – 666 – the code mark of the Beast will perish. They have no share in the Land of Happiness, but to all who hold firm their faith till the end, I will give the Morning Star; they will live in the Land of Happiness. Though they will suffer great persecution and even die as martyrs, I will console them. I will raise them again to live forever. They will reign with Me in My Kingdom forever. Children, hear now and run for your lives. I am the lonely Agonizing Jesus Christ, whom you all deserted. Children, I called you again for reparation to prepare you all again for a great work. I have another greater project to appeal to you. I will share My work among you, whom I called and they followed Me. I will empower you through your total dedication to Me. I will give you My peace. Children, how I wish that all My chosen Apostles in all the Dioceses of this country hear the call and answer. Remember that I say, My Apostles, not Disciples. I need your full participation. The days are for My Apostles. The parishioners will do their Gethsemane hour in their various homes. I have a great Programme for My Apostles only on that day. Remember to expose the Blessed Sacrament throughout the days as before. You will light the altar with twelve tongues of flame. I will remain with you. Children maintain silence in and around the arena. This will please Heaven very much. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ Who called you. I bless you all. Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND PILGRIMAGE MESSAGE OF THE FIRST LESSON 7 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA IMITATE THE HEAVENLY BEINGS SINCE YOU ARE HEAVENLY CANDIDATES. During our novena prayer, Our Lord appeared to me in a vision with His Holy Agonizing Face and calmly said: “Children, I call you to clothe My nakedness. You are My chosen; I am not making this appeal to the world but to you, whom I love. I say, clothe My nakedness. Clothe My nakedness, which My youth publicly expose. The enemy has succeeded in his plan against holiness. The enemy swore that he would not live to see a virgin in the world. He makes plan to seduce your hearts. Children, the enemy is succeeding in his plan. Many people, many people are now moving about naked in the streets and towns of the countries of the world. Children, this is the fashion of Hell, which has been introduced in the world to ruin the world. In Hell, you will find the mother of all the prostitutes dressing naked. This is the culture of Hell. Many people, that is to say, a large number of My lovers has followed the mother of all the prostitutes to expose Me naked. My chosen, I appeal to you to clothe My nakedness through your way of life. Let your modesty clothe My nakedness. Listen, My children, all who join the wicked woman of great Babylon will suffer much when the blazing fire begins to destroy her. Children, have you the Visa to Heaven? Imitate the Heavenly Beings, since you are Heavenly Candidates. See, the children of Hell take the visa to Hell and imitate the demon of Hell. You see them and follow them. Children, see how you have abandoned gold and bought charcoal. What profit do you make by helping the mother of prostitutes in her plan against holiness. Know you, children, that they will not escape the Heavenly wrath, all who cause one of these little ones to sin. I say, all who follow the woman of Babylon in her evil fashion will not escape, unless they turn back to Me now and make atonement for their sins. I am calling you all, My chosen, to clothe My nakedness. Clothe My nakedness which the young ladies publicly expose daily. Clothe My nakedness, which the gentlemen of this generation publicly expose. I am feeling greatly ashamed. Children, come and clothe my nakedness. The mother of the prostitutes and her agents are making fun of Me. They mock Me and say, Who then will clothe your nakedness”? I looked and saw that you were following the evil woman. Children, turn and look at yourselves. Whom then are you imitating? Hell or Heaven? Why are you exposing Me naked? Why are you deceiving My children? See, a large number of My children that have fallen into the sin of the flesh through your fashion. What will you do to bring the souls back to Me? I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Whom you took off His clothes and crucified. I am begging you to clothe My nakedness through your way of life. Let your dressing clothe My nakedness and console Me. Children, gain many souls for Me through your own way of life. I will reward you much. Children, you will offer your prayers tomorrow for the souls of the innocent children in the cloud. Their cries are hastening My Reign of Glory. Help and train up more virgins in the world. I am appealing to all My lovers. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who called you. Children, hear the voice of your Commander. I am your Supreme Commander. Obey the command at any time. At the command of shoot, shoot at once. At the command of hold on or take cover’. Obey at once. If you hear Me say, ‘move’, move at once. ‘Stop!’, Obey the last order. The battle has reached its climax. The enemy has many ways to attack you. Hear My last order. I am with you. I am leading you to the warfront as your Supreme Commander. I will give you victory. Children, I have forgiven your past lateness. Be certain not to fall into the plan of the wicked spirit. Pray and overcome him. Children, the cross will be ready before the Reparation days come. The complete messages, that are well edited, starting from 1 st Jan. 1997 to 31 st July 2000 will be well compiled before the days come. All these will be ready, so that you will not regret when the hour comes. Children, you have only little time left before the wicked man appears. Do all these things quickly. Any precious time that passes will be regretted. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, whom you took off His clothes and crucified. I love you all. I bless you all.” Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD PILGRIMAGE MESSAGE OF THE FIRST LESSON 8 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA I AM WHERE YOU ARE NOW AND SOON YOU WILL BE WHERE I AM FOREVER In our novena prayer, I saw the vision of the resurrected Jesus Christ coming down from the cloud with large number of Angels, too many to be counted. They sang as they came down. Cloud came down and covered the whole vision. Instantly the vision passed. Then, in the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who gently said: “My children, on the day when My glory will be revealed, you will see your Agonizing Master coming down from the cloud. I say, all eyes will see Me, even those who pierced My hands and feet. They will see the One, Whom they publicly exposed naked to the world coming amidst the cloud with all the Angels in glory. They will feel ashamed of themselves and regret forever. This will be their time to go and live with their mother, the woman of great Babylon, in the deepest pit of the abyss. Children, they will see their queen in her nakedness, and enjoy iniquity with her in the sulphuric fire of the abyss”. Children, the wicked will see the Head they lacerated with thorns being crowned with a Golden Crown. They will not even look at its brightness. The dazzling light of its glory will blind their eyes. I say, they will be ashamed of themselves and regret forever. But to you who remain My consolers in the Gethsemane shall receive consolation. You who sincerely helped Me carry My Cross, I will give My rest. My glorious peace will rest on you. I say, to you who wipe My Bloody Face, I will wipe the tears of their eyes. I will let MY Glory shine on them. There will be no more sorrow, no more pains, all these things will pass away. I will clothe you with the brightest garment because you have clothed My nakedness. You will shine like the risen sun. I will also give you the morning star. When wicked people in the torturing fire of hell see your brightness, they will remember how they mocked you in the world because you are My followers. They will also remember how they rejected My anguished appeal in the world, and their agony will increase. All who offered Me a drink will drink the living water that will come out from the new Garden of Eden. They will drink and satisfy their thirst because they satisfied My thirst when they were in the world. They will enjoy My loving feast with My lovers in Paradise. Finally, they will rule with Me over the house of Israel, and reign with Me years to come. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Whom you are consoling. Children, rejoice because I have given you the kingdom that cannot be shaken. You are My lovers, and I am with you always. I am where you are now and soon you will be where I am forever. Children, I am with you always. Only the one who removes himself from us will be lost. I say the one who abandons Us now will demarcate himself from Me now and forever. We shall miss him here and miss him in Heaven. But you who remain united with Me, I am with you always. Soon you will be with Me forever.” (Silence). I said: Lord, we shall remain with You. See the cross, we are presenting to You. Help us to do Your Will. Our Lord said: “Children, I love your effort. I am happy, you are consoling Me. Listen, this Crucifix is not My selected chosen one. But you will not damage it. Keep it among the rest. Children, you are told to make a Living bleeding Agonizing Crucifix of your Agonizing Master. Show My bleeding Wounds, My cloth stained with Blood, the Blood flowing out from the Sacred Hands and bathing My Sacred Sides. The thorns that pierced My Sacred Head and the Blood that bathed My Holy Face, the lacerated wounds of My knees, the Blood that is flowing out from the Wounds of the nails of My Sacred Feet and bathing the wooden cross, the dazzling rays of My Sacred Heart and the drops of Blood and Water will be well shown. Children, I am hanging alive. Show My stress. Make a portable cross so that you will send it without much difficulty. I am with you to help you. I have given My Angel to guard the artist. Tell the artist to pay much attention to this work. I will fill him with My Spirit. Barnabas, I have told you that I will send St. Cecilia to teach you, Atonement Prayer with the Crown of Thorns. I will do this because you have asked for it. She will come any hour before or after your novena on that day to teach you the prayer. She will do this in one of the quiet times. My Angel will inform you when the time comes. During your novena, she will come and teach you much. Do her good by your quietness and be at alert. Children, prepare for mortification when you are coming for the Reparation Programme. I will explain the programme well in the next novena. I am calling My Apostles, not Disciples. Do Me good to obey this command, so that you will have nothing to regret. Rejoice because you have a Kingdom that cannot be shaken. I love you all. I bless you all.” Immediately, the vision passed. 1 ST PILGRIMAGE MESSAGE OF THE SECOND LESSON 9 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA IN YOU I AM BEING GLORIFIED Today being the last day of the first nine-day novena in the month of July, I saw in a vision the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ emanating from the Blessed Sacrament exposed on the altar. As I was watching, cloud came down and covered the whole place. The Holy Face appeared boldly in the cloud and said: “My children, I am being glorified in you. I am happy to see you responding to My anguished appeal. I see you changing from natural man to carnal man and then to spiritual man. My painful cry touches your little soul. You console Me. In you, I am being glorified. I saw you when they laughed at you, made fun of you as they called you fanatics. I saw you bearing the shame with joy. Indeed, you share in My shame. My sight of you consoled Me because I have found in you the little flower of love. I am being glorified in you. Children, I saw a large number of My people who were coming back to Me in truth and in spirit because of your response to My appeal. Even those who mocked you are now coming back to Me to know the truth. I saw your littleness; your simplicity and your humility, I was glorified. Rejoice because you are My bearers. I can find rest in your little souls. Children, do you know My greatest joy in you? When I looked back, I saw you with total denial of yourselves carrying your cross after Me. I saw your trouble. Even at the moment you fell, I saw you struggling under the weight of your cross. I am the One, Who came and helped you to rise again. I am the One Who encouraged you. My joy multiplied when I saw you with your wounded body still carrying your cross after Me. I was consoled; I am being glorified in you. Children, remain united in Me so that My joy for you will be complete. It remains a little, then you will hear: “Come and have your rest. Rejoice in My Kingdom forever.” You will see your Agonizing Master welcoming you into His everlasting peaceful Home with His Angels. I will take away from you the heavy cross and reward you with a Victorious Crown. When you look at the terrible way you have gone through, how you bore the shame and mockery of the wicked, and your suffering in the dry and hot desert of this world, and how you won, your hearts will be full of joy. Children, I am appealing to you to remain united in Me. Obey all My anguished appeals. Do not go and taste the world again. Abide in Me always. Children, may I find your names in the Book of Life. I have bought you with My Precious Blood. You are costly to Me. O! What a big loss to miss My loving kiss from you in Heaven. O! What a painful loss. Children, may I find you. May I see a cheerful heart of yours to embrace. May I see My loving ones. Receive My blessing; I cover you all who devotedly did this novena with My Precious Blood to see that you are protected against the wicked man. I clean your hearts and build up My Living Tabernacle there as a sign of My Great Seal. You are My chosen ones. I bless your families; you shall experience My loving care during the Great Tribulation. I will allow My Precious Blood to fall on the hearts of your dear ones who remain adamant to My Will. Their hearts of stone will turn to hearts of flesh. They will come to know the truth. Even if they resist My call for holiness, I will arrest them like Paul. I am giving you the grace of love. I am opening the gate of salvation for you all. May your eyes open to see the joy of suffering. I pour on you the blessing of a Sanctifying Grace. Children, I will not heal your bodily sickness. I am appealing to you to offer it to Me. Offer it to your Agonizing Master. I will offer it with My agony to the Eternal Father in atonement for your sins and those of the whole world. Children, I know that your nature will not accept this loving appeal. I will teach you the merit of suffering in the last novena for Israel. I will let you know the multiple graces you are loosing by avoiding your crosses. Accept My appeal. I say to you all; be healed in spirit. Children, how I wish that all My Apostles in all the Dioceses of this country of yours hear My call of the Reparation and come. I will be consoled. Children, I highly need your full participation in the Reparation. Every hour has it’s own cross. I want you all to share fully in the mortification life. I will give you a detailed programme. Be sure that you obey them all. I am calling you to mortify you and set you free for My work. My Mother with the Saints and Angels will teach you much in the next novena. Welcome them. I am being glorified through you. I bless you; in the Name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. I say, be healed in the Spirit. I love you all. Remain in My peace.” Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND PILGRIMAGE MESSAGE OF THE SECOND LESSON 13 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA THE SAINTS IN HEAVEN CALL YOU THE APOSTLES OF RENEWAL Today, the first day of the three-day novena in honour of the Most Holy Trinity, I saw the vision of Our Lady holding a Crown of Thorns with rose flowers that were fixed on it. As She was coming down, cloud came down and covered Her. There, in cloud, I saw the Sanctuary of God. The Blessed Sacrament was exposed there. Our Lady who knelt in silence before the Blessed Sacrament got up and calmly said: “Children, I come to express to you the agony of my Son, and let your eyes turn to the weeping of the Beloved. Turn and see the Holy Face of the Most Loving. He is looking for His friends. He is looking for them to come and console Him. Children, are you not the cause of His weeping? Look at His Face dripping with sweat of sorrow for love of you. He is alone. He is all abandoned. Come and hear His painful appeal. Come nearer to Him and console Him. Children, I heard Him appealing to you to live for Him, with Him, through Him and in Him. Hear Him and console Him. Offer Him your whole being as a Living Sacrifice. May your lives glorify Him. May you be His consolers. Live for Him alone. Children, accept His appeals. Live so as to be the Veronicas of the last age, to wipe His Bloody Face. Remember His appeals to you. He said: “Keep the day of obligation holy. Love your neighbor and pray for your enemy, and obey all the rest of the Commandments of your God.” He further said to you that many souls are going to hell because of the sins of the flesh. He appealed to you to help and train more virgins in the world. He told you to live a modest life. Obey Him and work hard. Stand for Him against all the errors that are fighting for the downfall of His Holy Church. Look at His bloody Face and console Him. My daughter, Cecilia, will teach you much about the Heavenly Worship. Children, may it come to reign in the Holy Church, the true worship as you can see modernism reigning and replacing holiness in the Church. Children, Heaven is training His Apostles, you are the Apostles of the last age. You are called to renew and rectify what the Evil One has done to the handwork of God. This is why the Saints in Heaven call you the Apostles of Renewal. Children, you have seen that the enemy has succeeded in his plan. His agents have succeeded in winning you and ruining the Holy Temple, in the same way, Heaven has chosen you to fight the Evil One and his agents. Victory is promised to the very few that will fight to the end. They will defeat the Evil One and his agents and bring back the True Worship. PROGRAMME FOR THE REPARATION Children, turn and look at the weeping Face of the Beloved and console Him. I am the Mother of the Agonizing Jesus Christ. Listen to your Programme for the Reparation. You will have the Programme in this chapel. Your morning Masses will be celebrated by 5.00 am every day. And the evening Masses will be celebrated by 9.00 pm every evening. In atonement for the sacrileges committed against my Son and my Saviour in the Holy Eucharist, you shall walk on your knees as you go for communion. I say to all who are able. St. Cecilia will treat the rest. You shall not eat anything cooked with oil starting from the hour of the reparation on 11 th September to 13 th September 2000. On the 14th of September, you are to eat and enjoy yourselves, as you like till 12 noon of that day. That day is the Great Feast of the Triumph of the Holy Cross. At the hour of 12 noon, my Priest will bless the cross; you will hold the first selected crucifix while the rest will be laid on the floor of the Holy Sanctuary. Then my Priest, with the Most Holy Trinity will bless it. Then the Holy Worship to alert the Twelve Tribes of Israel will commence. The Programme will be made known to you on the 15th of this month. You are to eat again that day from 6.20 pm to 6.40 pm. You are to do it quickly and come back for the Holy Worship. On the 15th of September, I will allow you to drink water only, but remember that my Son suffered the whole day without any food or drink. On the 16th, you can eat your normal food without oil in the morning. By 12 noon, you will close as you did in the first Reparation Programme. When the hour passes, enjoy whatever you have communally and go for the work that my Son will send you. I am the Mother of the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who called you all. Children, when you come, divide yourselves into twelve groups for the programme of the 14th of the month. You are to choose a partner, not from the group you belong. You shall be in twos to discuss and share the Will of God together. This shall be done every day of the Reparation from 5.30 pm to 6.00 pm. Group sharing will be from 9 am to 11 am every day of the programme. The rest of the hour will be occupied with your prayers and private meditation. Never forget to discuss all the messages you will have during the hour immediately you get them. I have little things to tell you on the 26 th of this month during your last novena. Obey every bit of this programme. Children, those who come late today or sleep in the Presence of my Son will not join you here in this novena. They can join you later in the last novena. All who will do like them later will not join you. Children, you have come to the Agonizing Saviour. Learn to console so as to be consoled. I welcome you all in My peace. I say to you all, peace be with you. So, I bless you.” Immediately, she left the crown on my head and vanished. 3 RD PILGRIMAGE MESSAGE OF THE SECOND LESSON 14 TH JULY, 2000(4:30AM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA ATONEMENT PRAYER WITH THE CROWN OF THORNS BY ST. CECILIA As I was sleeping after the Gethsemane Hour of prayer, I heard a little voice which called me, “Barnabas, Barnabas, get up, go to the Chapel and meet the Heavenly daughter Cecilia. Get up and meet her”. By this time, I remembered Our Lord’s promise that He will send His Angels to inform me when the hour comes to meet her. Immediately I went straight to the Chapel. There, I saw the vision of the Agonizing Lamb of God, hanging alive, bleeding for love of us. His Head was crowned with Thorns: Blood dripped down from the Wounds of the Thorns and bathed His Holy Face. As I was looking, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, the vision remained there with a large number of Heavenly Cherubim who sang songs. In the front of the Crucified Lamb, I saw a gentle Lady kneeling before the Crucified Lamb of God. My inner self told me that she was Saint Cecilia. She kept silent for a short time and finally prayed. In her silence, I heard a sorrowful song from infinity, which I recorded as thus: SONGS. 1. I am all alone I am all abandoned Leaving Me with a Crown of Thorns That pierced My heart, which pierced My Head All My people have deserted Me. 2. My lovers My lovers Where are you? Where are you? This Crown of Thorns has pierced My Soul Withdraw the Thorns, have mercy on Me. 3. For love of you For love of you I died on the Cross, with a Crown of Thorns I am living with the Thorns again I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. After the song there was silence. Then, the Saint who had a Crown of Thorns in her hands, gazing at the Crucified Jesus Christ on the Cross, steadily and finally prayed. ATONEMENT PRAYER WITH THE CROWN OF THORNS “My Dearest Agonizing Jesus Christ, Son of the Most High, I prostrate at Your Feet with all my nothingness. I recall all my grievous offences against You. I pray You Lord: Have mercy on me. My sins kept You in agony over thousands of years. Looking at Thee hanging alive on the Cross, with a horrible Crown of Thorns, blood badly bathing Your Face, and the spikes of the thorns piercing Your delicate Sacred Head, I feel sorry for my ungrateful gift of Thorns to You. I wish to withdraw the Crown of Thorns and offer You a loving Golden Crown,” (Kissing the crown and pressing it to her heart) she then prayed My Jesus, whom I lacerated His Sacred Head with a Crown of Thorns, Have mercy on me and forgive Your world. My Jesus, Who are suffering mystically the pains and agony of my wicked Crown of Thorns in Your Sacred Heart, Have mercy on me and forgive Your world. My Jesus, Who suffers the ignominy of my wicked Crown of Thorns Have mercy on me and forgive Your world”. (Pressing the thorns on her head, she kissed the feet of the Agonizing Jesus Christ on the Cross, and prayed: “My Agonizing Jesus, I remembered how I beat Your Sacred Head with an iron rod to drive the spikes of the Thorns into Your delicate Brain. I feel its sound and pain like a thunderbolt, disfiguring Your virginal Being. Oh! How callously my wickedness has suffered You, my gentle Saviour. When I consider Your terrible journey to Calvary, I weep bitterly for my wicked Crown of Thorns on Your Sacred Head, the Seat of Divine Wisdom. I feel your falling under the Cross, with the weight of the Cross helping the spikes penetrate deeper and deeper into Your delicate Brain. I saw my very self, dragging You up and beating You on Your Sacred Head with a spear. Oh! Would that I was not the one who did all these things to my loving Saviour. I will fight for you. My Jesus, I have treated You cruelly, forgive me, forgive me, and forgive Your world. I will do all things possible to withdraw the Thorns through my own way of life henceforth. My wickedness kept the Crown of Thorns on Your Sacred Head till Your death to see that You did not draw any comfort from any part of Yourself. Lord, have mercy on me, Christ, have mercy on my wickedness. I feel Your Sacred Head resting dead on the lap of Your Sorrowful Mother. There I saw the united hands of John the Beloved, Mary Magdalene, and Your Sorrowful Mother removing my wicked Crown of Thorns on Your Sacred Head with loving tears. I wish, I were one of them, withdrawing my wicked crown and offering you a Golden Crown of my love to You.” (Holding the Crown of Thorns and looking meditatively in silence, she finally prayed) “I offer You my very self and promise to carry my cross after You all the days of my life with joy and love. Take the merits of my sufferings and persecutions, which I promise to accept with love in atonement for my sins and those of the whole world. Dearest Agonizing Jesus Christ with this poor offering, I wish to withdraw my wicked Crown of Thorns and offer You a Golden Crown. Receive from me a sincere love. This is my Golden Crown I am offering to You. Amen. Eternal Father, I have offended You greatly for having lacerated the Sacred Head of Your only-begotten Son, the One Whom You love most. Have mercy on me. Forgive me and forgive Your world. (Three times) After the prayer, the Saint added: “Son of the Beloved, Jesus loves this prayer much. He wants to hear you pray it always with love and a sincere heart of repentance. If you do, you are withdrawing the thorns which pierced His delicate Brain. Son of the Beloved, Jesus loves you much. He hears you always. He teaches you with love. Come nearer to Him always. Never desert Him. Before I leave you now, I will teach you a song of adoration to the Crucified Lamb on the Cross. You will hear the song tomorrow as the Angels teach you the programme of 14th September. I will teach it to you now, so that when you hear the songs, you will remember. Hear the song: 1. Holy, Holy, Holy Holy, Holy, Holy Holy is the Lamb Who died on the Cross. 2. Honour, glory and praises. Power, wealth and wisdom Strength and might to Thee Sacrificial Lamb. 3. Thy Kingdom come Agonizing Lord Thy Kingdom come Merciful Lamb. 4. Reign forever Lord. Crucified Lamb of God Who hangs bleeding for love Reign forever more. Son of the Beloved, tomorrow you will hear the Heavenly Beings adoring the Sacrificial Lamb of God Who hangs bleeding on the Cross for love of you. When the time comes, you will join them. I am coming back in the evening to teach you what motivated me to come to you. I am your daughter Cecilia. I pray that you will not give up. May Jesus, Who loves you, bless you all. So I leave you” Immediately, the vision passed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ FIRST HOUR- THE MESSAGES FOR BLOOD OF CIRCUMCISION OF OUR LORD 1 ST MESSAGE OF THE FIRST HOUR 14 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA YOU ARE CALLED TO HASTEN THE GLORIOUS REIGN ON EARTH In our novena prayer, I saw the vision of a Holy Sanctuary in the cloud. The Ark of Covenant was there. Within a short time, there was a lightning and a sound of thunder. Instantly, I saw Saint Cecilia, holding a brass trumpet in her hands, and little Cherubim by her sides. She came nearer and finally said: “Son of the Beloved, I have come to express my gratitude for the love, which Jesus Christ has for you. I am your daughter, Cecilia. I am here, through the loving appeal of my Sorrowful Mother. Son of the beloved, how I wish you love Jesus Christ much. He really loves you. He suffers martyrdom daily due to your sins, in a mystical way. This martyrdom is greater than any form of martyrdom, that one can ever experience. He loves to be nearer to you always; but you desert Him. Son of the beloved, think of what it means that your God and Your Saviour weep for you. He wept not only ordinary tears but tears of blood. He calmly appeals to you with a gentle voice to show Him love, yet you reply Him with hatred. Son of the Beloved, who do you think you are? Look at a Creator weeping for His creatures. Indeed, He loves you, His creature. Come near to Him. Jesus is really looking to see your love. He wants to keep you where He is so that nothing will harm you. Answer Him when He calls; approach Him with love and awe. Children of the Beloved know you today that you ought to do before the Blessed Sacrament what we are doing in Heaven, because it is the same God we have in Heaven that you too have in the Blessed Sacrament. The whole Heavenly Court, fear the dazzling light of God’s Presence in the altar of Heaven; you too will fear the same God Who is really present in the Holy Eucharist. Children of the Beloved, you are to show perfect reverence to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, so that you will receive from Him multiple blessings. You miss multiple blessings by not adoring Jesus Christ in an absolute reverence and awe. He is really present in the Blessed Sacrament. He is the same God we adore in Heaven. Children of the Beloved, learn to prostrate well whenever you approach the Most Blessed Sacrament in the Holy Sanctuary. Learn also to bow low to the mighty Name of Jesus Christ at any time you hear it, and to the Holy Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Learn and do this always so as to gain multiple blessings from the Most High God. Put it into practice now. Make it a part of you. This is how it is done in Heaven. Then, learn from now not to call the Name of your God in vain. All the Holy Names of your God and your Saviour when called need to be adored. Children of the Beloved, I know that this will seem difficult for you because you are living in an arrogant and wicked world, which fills you with pride. But you are to learn it from now because you are the Apostles of Renewal. You are called to hasten the Glorious Reign on earth. Children of the beloved, when you come for the Reparation, you are to adore the Presence of Jesus Christ in the Blessed Sacrament with an absolute reverence and awe. Whenever you hear the Priest of God calling you to join the Saints and the Holy Angels in singing ‘Holy, Holy, Holy,’ during Mass, you are to prostrate with your head touching the ground to sing with the Saints, Holy, Holy, Holy. You are to do this in atonement for your sins of negligence and those of the whole world committed against the Presence of God in the Holy Eucharist. Remain on your knees with a humble heart to offer the rest of the prayers of Consecration. After Communion, you shall stand up to offer a noble thanks to the Most High Trinity, Who fed you with the Sacrificial Lamb. Finally you are to kneel with your head bowed low to receive the Divine Spirit and the final blessing. In the end, praise the Holy Name of your God. Children of the beloved, you will do all these things, in addition to the order given by the Sorrowful Mother, in atonement for all the sins committed against the New Ark of the Covenant. Children of the Beloved, after you have participated in this Great Reparation, you will learn to adore with fear the Presence of your God. I say to you that you will die out of fear the moment you come to the full knowledge of the One you daily neglected with coldness and mindlessness. It is only with the guidance of Holy Angels that a Holy Soul reaches the Presence of God in Heaven. The Glory of God is great. No one can stand in His Presence if not for His love, and mercifulness. Our God is so kind. He forgives all who turn to Him with true and sincere repentance. Learn now, that He will forgive your past negligence. Then, I asked: “Can one offer ‘a hand of peace’ during the hour of Consecration?” She replied: “Children of the Beloved, if you are to offer the sign of peace, you shall do it moderately with regards to the Sacrificial Lamb on the altar. He does no wrong he who wishes peace to his sorrowful friend who lost his Father. But he does great wrong, if he casually does this. His words will only inflame the sorrow of his friend. Jesus is highly annoyed with your total abandonment during this hour. He greatly needs your nearness to His love. Nothing should distract you during this hour. I say, gently offer the sign of peace and keep on meditating on the agony of Jesus Who loves you much. Children of the beloved, know you again that it is the same God you have in the Blessed Sacrament that we have in Heaven. Learn to do before the Blessed Sacrament what we are doing in Heaven. This is the Glorious Reign you are called to hasten. May it reign in the world, the Heavenly Worship through you, as you see ‘modernism’ reigning in the world through the agents of the Evil One. I am praying for you all, in union with the Heavenly Saints, to see that you all will remain firm in your faith and hasten the Glorious Reign of peace. May the blessing of your God remain with you all. So, I leave you” Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND MESSAGE OF THE FIRST HOUR 15 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA DISCUSSION ON THE REGIN OF GLORY Today being the last day of our three-day novena in the month of July, I saw in a vision Saint Michael the Archangel, Saint Anthony Claret, and Saint Francis of Assisi discussing the ‘Glorious Reign’ in the cloud. Francis: “The enemy has reached his climax. His plans are moving successfully, even at the stage of fighting the greatest source of grace,-- the Holy Mass. Michael, you see the Beast coming out of the sea.” Michael: “Yes, he has little time to act. When the right time comes, I will be given order to act.” Anthony Claret: “Many of God’s people have little knowledge, concerning the malice and work of this wicked Beast. Even among my fellow clergy, who need to be at alert. See, the Evil One is working in full force among them. See, the struggle and manly effort he is making to capture the highest position in the Holy Church; while God’s people are dozing in sound sleep.” Francis: “There are very few that understand. But they are the most neglected servants. They seem illiterate in the eyes of the world. This makes it come true the words of the Saviour that; God has made known the mysteries of His kingdom to the little children”. Michael: “Those remnant groups that understand suffer much. They suffer persecution and even rejection from the hierarchy.” Francis: “Their suffering is not a waste. Suffering under obedience gains much grace. Those who understand among them will enjoy their suffering and their persecution, because in the bearing of the Holy Cross is true happiness. If they will understand and pray for more suffering and persecution, they will hasten the Glorious Reign. As their sufferings increase, the hour of peace approaches.” Anthony: “Very few understand this great merit of suffering. See Our Saviour living Agonizingly among the world. See the Queen of Heaven living sorrowfully among the children of God. Yet, only very few acknowledge this great love. There are many seekers but few consolers. Look at those who come to the Agonizing Lord Jesus Christ in His Holy Temple in different Chapels all over the world. There are many seekers but very few consolers. Look, Our Lord is weeping for the world.” Michael: “I marvel at the great love which the Most High God has for man”. Immediately, Michael had finished this statement, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, appeared the Holy Agonizing Crucifix mounted on the Holy Sanctuary of God in Heaven. The Saints and Angels of Heaven adore the Lamb of God on the Cross. I heard a loud voice, which cried out and sang: ‘O House of Israel, come and adore the Lamb of God. Adore the Lamb on the Cross Who died to save you”. In another tone, they repeated the tribes of Israel in exchange of the house of Israel. They called the tribes one after the other from Reuben to Benjamin. At every tone, they all bowed down with their heads touching the ground and sang: ‘Holy, Holy, Holy’, as I was taught yesterday. In the end, cloud came down and covered the whole place. Then appeared the Mother of the Agonizing Jesus Christ, who calmly said: My children, this is the vision of the Holy worship of 14 th September. My Priests who are present at that time will bless the crosses. I say the Agonizing crosses by 12 noon that day. Then, they will intone the songs to alert the House of Israel. All men except the Priest holding the Cross will bow low with their heads touching the ground and sing ‘holy, holy, holy’. This will continue every hour till 12 mid-night. At the dot every hour, each group will intone the songs starting from the first group to the last group of the tribe of Benjamin. Each group has only one hour to intone. Immediately after each adoration, you will continue with your normal programme. Children, make this programme great. It is great in Heaven. After the adoration of 12 mid-night, all men will kiss the Holy Cross with love. Children, this programme remains forever. After you have adored Him on earth, you will join the Saints to adore Him forever. I am appealing to the women Apostles from Independence Layout, Enugu to see that the Sanctuary of Reparation pleases Heaven. Children, remember that you are to light up the altar, with twelve flames of candle. I warn you never to sleep in the Presence of the Holy Trinity. You are chosen Apostles. You are called to console the Lamb of God. May your worship please Heaven. On the 15 th of September, you will have your Total Dedication between 12 noon to 3.00 pm. You are to do this Consecration with the Votive Mass of the Precious Blood. After the Consecration, you will receive your crosses of Consecration and the badges of Dedication. From that time, you are made full Soldiers of Jesus Christ. You will be sent to make disciples of all nations as the Apostles of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ. Children, come and enjoy the Heavenly blessing. Do you love to hear the discussion of these Saints again?” I said, ‘yes’. She said: Pray and mortify yourselves more. I am the Mother of the Agonizing Jesus Christ. I love you all. I bless you all. Remain in peace from Heaven”. Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD MESSAGE OF THE FIRST HOUR 20 TH JULY, 2000(3AM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA KNOW YOU AGAIN THAT YOU ARE LIVING IN THE DARK WORLD Today being the first day of the twelve-day novena in the month of July, I saw in a vision, Our Lord hanging alive on the Cross, the vision emanated from the Blessed Sacrament exposed on the altar. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “Children, I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who called you. I welcome you all who have gathered to appease the anger of the Eternal Father in this great month of July. I say to you all, the battle is Mine. I am choosing My warriors all over the world. I am getting them ready to meet the hour. Their number will be very few. Children, I am choosing the weakest ones, the most little, and the most neglected children of Mine to be My warriors. I will use their illiteracy to teach the wise, their dullness to teach the brave. I will do this so as to let you know that the battle is Mine. Children, I am choosing all who yield completely to the Divine Will. Those who deny and crucify themselves and finally carry their crosses after Me all the days of their lives. They are My warriors. I will fill them with My Spirit and power. Their eyes and minds will be opened to know the plans of the enemy, because I will give them the grace of Divine Wisdom. Children, My warriors will seem little, but courageous. I am calling you all, to join My training in this great month of July, so that you will be chosen. All who know and understand will pray to join My warriors, so that they will not suffer the cruel sufferings of civilians. Children, know you that the warriors of the wicked man are at work in your country. You see them, and you hail them because you want peace. Very soon, you will regret. I say, you will weep out every bit of joy you derive from their work. At that time, you will understand My words when I appealed to you to pray. Come and join My warriors so that I will heal your spiritual blindness of mind and eyes. Children, this is why I appealed to you to make this devotion known all over the world. Teach the world the merit of the month of July. Let all men join in the novenas so as to get healing of their spiritual blindness. Children, all who are spiritually blind will not understand the time. Their mind and eyes will not understand or see the malice, work and plan of the Evil One. They will continue moving in the darkness of their souls and eyes till they fall into the pit of the enemy, where they will suffer and regret bitterly. I am here to heal your blindness of soul and the spiritual blindness of your eyes. Come and join My warriors. Children, know you again that you are living in the dark world. There is need for your sight. Even those who have their normal sight, stumble in darkness. How then, will it be for those who are totally blind? How do you think they will make a move? I say, they will not only stumble, but will pitifully fall with their joints broken. They will have nothing to do but remain calm and wait for their death. The enemy will come there and capture them Children, I am choosing My warriors, join them so that your spiritual blindness will be healed. I will teach you the Perfect Will of your God, and make the merits of sufferings known to you during the days of the novena. When you come for the reparation, I will teach you by 2.00 pm and share My work, with the revelation of My project at 12 mid-night every day; except 15 th and 16 th September. On 15 th , My Mother will teach you by 9.00 pm. This is the only lesson for the day. On 16 th , I will give you final advice by 11.00 am. And finally bless you with the power of the Holy Trinity. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who am calling you to join My warriors. I love you all. I bless you all” Immediately, the vision passed. (One Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory be…) (The Rosary: Intention: Conversion of sinners and Renewal of the Face of the Earth) SECOND HOUR- THE MESSAGES FOR THE SWEAT OF BLOOD IN THE GARDEN 1 ST MESSAGE OF THE SECOND HOUR 21 ST JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA I FEEL REJECTED WHEN I SEE YOU REJECTING THE CUP OF LOVE WHICH I AM OFFERING TO YOU In our novena prayer, I saw the vision of Our Lord hanging alive on the Cross; bleeding unceasingly for love He has for His people. As l was looking cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ Who calmly said: “My children, the special gift I offer to My lovers is the chalice, which I drank. The chalice, which is so dear to Me. Those who love Me accept it with joy. When they taste it, they enjoy its sweetness, but those who hate My way suffer it’s bitterness. CHILDREN, I FEEL REJECTED WHEN I SEE YOU, REJECTING THE CUP OF LOVE, WHICH I AM OFFERING TO YOU. This is the chalice of love, the chalice of mercy as well as the chalice of My suffering. This is what I have for you. This is the cup of love I reserve for My lovers. This is the cup of My Death, the cup of Salvation. Receive from Me always, this chalice of mercy. I say receive from Me your own cross. Drink the cup of suffering and joy with Me. Children, enjoy this chalice of salvation with Me. Children, the cross that is not accepted is My agony that is not consoled. The agony that is not consoled is martyrdom I am suffering for you. You suffer even greatly by avoiding your crosses, because you are not moving. The weight of the cross falls on you. Children, I instantly withdraw the cross that is accepted and offer you a new cross so as to draw consolation from you. What I gain from your cross is the consolation I draw from it. This is why I withdraw the cross instantly and offer you a new cross. The cross I left on you after you have accepted it gives Me much consolation and yields you multiple graces. Sanctifying graces follow you the moment you accept your cross with love. Children, surrender to every cross. What then is Divine Will? Children, what do you think is the Perfect Will of God? I say to you, My peace be with you to understand this Divine Lesson. Children, accident comes with the error of man. I mean interior and exterior accidents. All accidents accepted with love are the cup of chalice I gave you. This chalice is the Perfect Will of God. You have been given your will to act freely. If any one imposes this free will cruelly against another because he has authority over him, and the sufferer happens to accept it with love, he has accepted the chalice of My love. This chalice is the Perfect Will of God. I will not let the weight of your cross kill you. Even if you happen to die physically, I will raise you to life on the last day. Children, I enjoy this chalice always. I enjoy the sweet cross. This is why I lovingly offer it to My lovers. You do Me great wrong by avoiding your crosses. This sweet cross is what your lover and your Saviour offers to you, but you are rejecting it. Accept from Me this sweet cross of love. Children, as you are enjoying this sweet chalice of love with Me, you will enjoy its sweetness with Me in Heaven. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who love you. Rejoice as you see in nature, your friends or your enemies create crosses for you; see My Hands offering them to you. Accept this loving chalice from Me. Embrace the sweet cross. I am the Agonizing Jesus Whom you are consoling Children, learn to treat My messages seriously. May it have deep root in your souls. Pray, I will teach you My will always. The programme of 15 th September will be on Mount Carmel, Olo. The night programme remains in the Chapel of your Reparation. My Mother will treat the programme well on 26 th of this month. Children, get all things ready before the day. Plan to record day-to-day programme of the Reparation. You will enjoy it in the years to come. Gather My Apostles to Me. I am looking for them. I call you all to bless you. I love you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND MESSAGE OF THE SECOND HOUR 22 ND JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA MY CHILDREN, THERE IS NO OTHER WAY, BUT THE ROYAL WAY OF THE CROSS In our novena prayer, I saw in a vision, Our Lord carrying His Cross on the rough road of Calvary. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, My way is a desert road. I say, it is a Calvary way. A narrow way with rough stones. It is a Calvary way. I lead all My lovers through this gracious road to the Land of Happiness. Children, there is no other way, which can lead to the Land of Happiness other than the Royal Way of the Cross. This road is hidden. Those who find it find life, but it seems that only few find it. Children, not all, who find it, follow it. I say, there are only very few who find it that follow it. And not all who follow it reach the land of happiness. Children, very, very few people possess the Land of Happiness. This royal road is a gracious way for those who love Me. They see the ocean of sanctifying grace along the way. This grace is a source of power and strength for them. They embrace it and remain firm. But for those who hate My cross, it is a stumbling road. Children, My way is easy for those who love My cross. This way is the road of happiness, since it’s end is a land full of happiness and joy. Although, mighty men stop on the way, they stop the moment their love for Me and the holy cross vanishes. Children, no one can walk through this land to the land of happiness without true love for the Holy Cross. True love has no attachment to self. He has the self-crucified. True love lowers himself, and takes the lowest position. He chooses to serve than to be served. True love has no attachment to the world. He lays his love completely before the One Who died for love of him. True love realizes that to die for the One he loves is greater than any love he will show to his Lover. True love follows his Lover wherever He goes. He rejoices with Him and suffers with Him whenever the time comes. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who call you to follow Me. My way is a desert way. I say it is a Calvary way. I am calling all My lovers to follow Me through this royal way of the cross. I chose it for your sake. This is the way My Father has kept for Me from the beginning for your salvation. This is the way I followed to set you free. Let all My lovers follow it back to our joyful Home. That way you are following is not the true way. That wide road, which many are following, leads to perdition. This is the way, which the enemy made to deceive you. He made it wide, and smooth so as to attract you. Children, remember that I went through deserts and seas in search of you. It is the same route that you will follow back home. I say, there is no other route. This is why My way is a desert way, with rough stones, cold and hot desert. If you had not lost your way and gone far away into this terrifying desert, I would not have come to search for you. And there would have been nothing like the desert way I am teaching you now. Children, you went deep into a terrifying desert. I went through a narrow and rough road searching for you. Now that I have found your, we shall go back home through the same route. There is no other way. Come, My children, let us go home. Follow Me! This is the way that leads to our joyful home. I am the agonizing Jesus Christ, the Chief Shepherd, Who comes to save His flock. Follow Me, it is a rough way. I love you all. I am with you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD MESSAGE OF THE SECOND HOUR 23 RD JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA THE MERITS OF THE CROSS OF FORGIVENESS In our novena prayer, I saw the vision of Our Lord Jesus Christ hanging alive on the Cross bleeding. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, I come to teach you the merits of the Cross of Forgiveness. This is the gracious cross, which I accepted from My Father in order to save humanity. I am offering it to all My lovers to carry. I accepted it from Him. Accept from Me the gracious Cross of Forgiveness. I say to you; forgive all who offend you and pray for all who refuse to accept your forgiveness. Forget all the pains of their injury that stab your heart. Love them as your true friends. Children, even if they refuse to accept your appeal of peace, forgive them and show more love to them. Children, true love is forgiveness. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, who died on the Cross of Forgiveness for you. Remember My words of forgiveness on the Cross. When I said: “Father forgive them for they know not what they are doing”. I am the model of forgiveness. I am appealing to you what I am. Children, if you are to be true lovers of My cross: You are to forgive even at the cost of your life. Bless those who curse you, and have compassion on those who hunt for your life. Pray for those who persecute you. And offer more of your wealth to those who take your possession by force. This is the Cross of Forgiveness I am giving to you. Children, who then is supposed to ask for pardon? Is it the one who offended or the one who is offended?” I answered “the one who offended”. Our Lord answered: “Truly I say to you, there is no grace for the one who is offended if he waits for the one who offended him to ask for pardon before he forgives and forgets the injury. This is because he has received his consolation in the world. O! What multiple graces for the offended who pleads with love to those who offend him to forgive him. I say; He gains multiple graces, which remit thousands of years in his Purgatory days. Children, I say to you, ask pardon of those who offend you. Do it with love. Do it with a repentant heart. This is a Royal Cross of Perfection. It attracts multiple graces to those who embrace it. I am offering it to all My lovers. I say again, ask pardon of those who offend you and show them more love. Children, is there any injury that one cannot forgive? I say to you, forgive all injury and forget them. I am the One Whom they are persecuting; I am the One Who will judge them. I am the One to pay them back. Reward your enemy with charity. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Whom you are consoling. I pour on you a sanctifying grace for any injury forgiven and forgotten. This grace is a purifying grace. It keeps you closer to My love and mercy. This grace opens your eyes and minds to the true meaning of Heaven. Children, I will have mercy on those who have mercy on Me, and forgive all who forgive their enemies. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who calls you to love. I love you all. I bless you all.” Immediately, the vision passed.

Within a short time, cloud shook and the vision passed. In the cloud, appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, today I come to offer you a Royal Cross of ‘Truth’. The world rejected it because they did not know Me. But I am offering it to you because you are My lovers. Accept from Me the Royal Cross of Truth. I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. All who reject the Truth reject Me. All who reject Me miss the Way. And all who miss the Way lose their Lives. Children, the truth is the royal cross, which My Father prepared for Me from the beginning of the world. I accepted it with love for your sake. I came and revealed The Truth. Those who belong to the light hear Me and embrace the Truth. This truth is a Royal Cross. Those who love Me carry it all the days of their lives and follow Me. Children, the world did not know the truth, so they did not know Me. This is why the world hates Me and kills Me. Those who belong to the truth, I say, the children of Truth will suffer the same persecution. The world will hate them, because they are not of the world. If you are of the world, the father of all lairs will love you. But you are the children of The Truth, so they will hate you and even kill many of you because of truth. I am offering to all My lovers the Royal Cross of Truth. Carry this cross, which the world rejects, with Me. I will give you peace. Children, you are called to speak the truth at all cost in this perilous moment of your days. But you shall be wise and humble. There is no excuse for you to tell lies in this critical moment of your days. I say to you, many will tell lies at this perilous time in order to save their lives but lose their lives. Or to get rich, but remain poor forever in the torturing fire of Hell. Children, even at the moment of great loss, I appeal to you, to speak the truth. Even at the point of your death, I appeal to you, speak the truth. Even at the hour of rejection, I appeal to you, speak the truth. Even at the cost of imprisonment, I appeal to you, speak the truth. Even at the loss of a friendship, I appeal to you, speak the truth. I say, even if it results in hardship, I appeal to you speak the truth. I promise you, all lost shall be regained. This is a Royal Cross of Truth, I am offering to all My lovers. Children, there is no loss in speaking the truth always. I say to you again, all lost shall be found. All who lie in order to gain cancel their names in the Book of Life, and have their names written in the Book of Death. They will soon see the great loss they made and will suffer the loss forever. But you, at whom they laugh because you lost by speaking the truth, will gain. Your names are written in the book of life. I will remove millions of years from your Purgatory days for any truth that comes out of your mouth. In the same way, millions of years are added to your Purgatory days for every lie that comes out of your mouth. Children, I appeal to you: Receive from Me a Royal Cross of Truth. This is a Cross of Perfection, which I am offering to you. Carry it with Me to the Land of Peace. There is no permission for you to tell lies in this critical moment of your days. This cross is heavy to men; but with God it is a light cross. Children, leave everything and follow Me. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who died on the Royal Cross of Truth. I am appealing to you what I am. I love you all. I bless you all.” Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND MESSAGE OF THE THIRD HOUR 25 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA DROP THE HEAVY CROSS OF PRIDE AND TAKE FROM ME THE LIGHTER CROSS OF HUMILITY In our novena prayer, I saw a vision of Our Lord hanging alive on the Cross bleeding. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place; in the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ who calmly said: “My children, drop the heavy cross of pride, which the evil one lifted on you; and receive from Me the royal cross of humility. There is no merit in carrying this heavy cross of pride. As they lifted themselves high, so, shall they be brought down to the lowest. Their vainglory will soon turn to shame forever. Their praise will soon become mockery and their joy will soon change to sorrow. I say to you, the proud shall regret any happiness he derived from his pride. Accept from Me the light Cross of Humility and have yourselves at rest. Children, I offered the world this sweet Cross of Humility; they rejected it. Consider that your God took the nature of man; and became man. Your God abandon His Divinity and lowered Himself to the same nature as His creature. When He saw Himself in the world, He took the lowest position. He is the poorest among the poor. He enjoyed His poverty so as to console those that are poor. He is the prince who has no possession in the wealth of His Father. Your God has no share over what He created. He is the Word made Flesh and dwelt among men. He is the rejected Lamb Who offered His Blood for the salvation of men. This is He Who still lives agonizingly among His people. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who offers you a Royal Cross of Humility. Children, learn from Me for I am meek and humble of Heart. I am the silent Lamb led to the slaughter. I offered My back to those who beat Me, and My life to My merciless servants. I did not withdraw My Hands and Feet when they held Me to crucify. I humbly submitted to the Cross for love of you. This is the Cross of Humility I carried for you. Children, I am still carrying it for love of you and calling you to carry your own with Me. But you are reluctantly answering My call. The world rejected this cross. I am offering it to you, My lovers. Accept from Me the Royal Cross of Humility, I say to you; Drop the heavy cross of pride, which the enemy lifted on you, and accept My lighter cross. Children, accept all humiliation with love, Quarrel not with those who falsely accuse you. Rather accept the criticism silently with love. Rejoice when they call you by different, slanderous names, and never utter a word of resentment. Rather rejoice and smile over the matter; I say to you: Truth will proof itself when the hour comes; I am the truth. I will not disappoint you. Even if they humiliate you unto death, I will justify you and bring you to life everlasting. Children, even if your humility will cost you your earthly possession, just speak the truth and yield to Divine Will. Even if your humility may lower your personality, I say, submit to the Will of God. Children, even if your humility may hinder your ministry or your occupation, I say to you, obey and submit to the perfect Will of the Divine, Who is omniscient. This is the Royal Cross of Humility I am offering to all My lovers. Learn to take the lowest position among My people. Learn to serve others with humility. I say to you; be a servant to your brothers. You lose multiple graces by avoiding this noble work of being a servant. Who is greater? The servant or the Master who receives the service of the servant? You might answer, ‘the master’, but I tell you truly, the servant is great in the sight of God. Children, the little will be great, and the great will be little. I appeal to all My lovers to drop the heavy cross of pride and take from Me the lighter Cross of Humility. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, the Model of Humility. I love you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD MESSAGE OF THE THIRD HOUR 26 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA ACCEPT FROM MY AGONIZING SON THESE LOVING OFFERINGS In our novena prayer, I saw the vision of Our Lady holding a crown of thorns with Rose flowers fixed on it. She came closer to us and calmly said: “My children, how do you enjoy the loving Cross of Perfection which my Son and my Saviour offered to you? Have you accepted from Him the Royal Cross of Forgiveness? What about the Royal Crosses of Truth and Humility? I am pleading with all my loving children to accept from my Agonizing Son these loving offerings. Children, the world has rejected these gifts. There is no one who loves to accept them from Him. Children, what about you? You are the sons of His Heart. He looks at you always to find consolation in you. If you love Him, accept this Cross from Him. This is the ‘Royal Cross’, which the proud rejected; accept it from Him. This is the cross, which the miracle seekers rejected; accept them from Him. This is the cross, which the liars rejected; accept it from him. This is the Cross, which the hateful rejected; accept it from Him. All who accept this Cross have sure hope of inheriting the Kingdom of Heaven without passing through purification after death. This is a Royal Way of Perfection.” THE PROGRAMME OF 15 TH SEPTEMBER 2002 “Children, hear the Programme of the 15 th September. All who come for reparation will leave the Chapel of Reparation to Mount Carmel, Olo. This will commence by 9.00 am. As you go down to the mountain, you shall be in twelve groups, starting from the first to the last group. Each person will carry a stone as you go down to the mountain. Groups: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, will recite the Rosary, starting from 9.00 am till they reach the mountain. Group 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 will recite the Chaplet of the Precious Blood starting from 9.00 am till they reach the mountain. The arrival on the mountain will be welcomed by your silence and then the mounting of the Crucifix. Jesus, will select the Crucifix. This shall be followed by your Consolation and Adoration to Jesus crucified. The Votive Mass of the Precious Blood will follow. This will be the Mass of your Consecration. My Priest, the Bearer of my Son’s Agony will have all consecrated to my Son through the prayer He gave you in the desert. After this, he will be consecrated by another Priest. I will pour on you all multiple graces. I will bless you with my mantle. My Son will pour on you the Most Precious Blood. The Spirit of Truth will fill you. All who come to the mountain on that day have the right to participate in the Consecration. I have obtained this grace for them. Do not advertise it. After the Mass, you are to say the Reparation prayer before you depart from the Holy Land. The stone you bring will be dumped at the foot of the Cross you mounted. Children, you will depart in silence and in groups. Carry this order as I have given it to you. The enemy will fight against this Programme. Pray that you will have everything done as I have planned it, so that you will receive the blessings which Heaven has for you. I will teach you much by 9.00 pm that night. Children, study the Programme of this reparation and obey every bit of it. Look, my Son is looking at you to accept His loving offering. Accept if from Him. I am the Mother of the Agonizing Jesus Christ; I bless you all. Remain in peace from Heaven.” Immediately, the vision passed. (One Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory be…) (The Consolation and Adoration Prayers: Intention: For the hastening of the Reign of Glory on Earth) FOURTH HOUR- THE MESSAGES FOR THE BLOOD OF THE CROWNING OF THORNS 1 ST MESSAGE OF THE FOURTH HOUR 27 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA LOOK AT THE ROYAL CROSS OF PERFECTION I AM OFFERING TO YOU In our novena prayer, I saw a vision of Our Lord hanging alive on the Cross bleeding. Within a short time cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Agonizing Christ Who calmly said: “Children, look at the Royal Cross of Perfection I am offering to you. Then, I saw a disjointed cross, separated into three parts. At the top was written ‘humility’, below was written ‘truth’, and on the crossing was written ‘forgiveness’. Our Lord continued: I appeal to all My lovers to unite and seal this cross with ‘love’. Love is the only gum that will hold it tight. I am giving it to you as a part of the Royal Cross of Perfection. Accept it from Me. Children, bind this cross with love. Take Humility, Truth and Forgiveness, and join it together. You will get a complete Cross of Perfection. Children, Humility is a part of the Cross of Perfection, so are Truth, and Forgiveness. What makes the Cross of Perfection is the combination of the three virtues bounded with Love. Children, forgiveness without love is pride. Pride is the heavy cross, which the enemy lifted on you. I have appealed to you to drop the heavy cross of pride, and accept from Me the lighter Cross of Humility. Humility without love is hatred. Hatred is another heavy cross, which the Evil One lifted on you. There is no merit in carrying this cross now, and in the life to come. I appeal to you to drop this heavy cross, and accept from Me the lighter Cross of Forgiveness. Children, Truth without love leads to ‘suspicion’, this suspicion will lead to guilt of heart. This will create mockery and hatred. I appeal to all My lovers to approach their accusers with love in this critical moment of your days. Correct their errors with love. Deal with your enemy as the weakest being in creation. I will be lifted up by you and manifest My power through you. This is the glorious reign, which I am leading all My lovers to. Children, even at the state of forsakenness, I appeal to you ‘love!’ Even at the cost of your life, I appeal to you; ‘love!’ Even in the time tribulation, I appeal to you, love all men. Even at the hour of persecution and false accusation against your name. I appeal to you to ‘love’. Even if they fight against your ministry, love them and pray for them. Even if they fight against your personality, love them, and pray for them. My eyes are on you. I look at you when you bear the pains of this cross. Your cheerfulness during this hour on this Royal Way of Perfection, consoles Me much. Children, do you know My greatest happiness? Whenever I look back and see you carrying your cross after Me, with total denial of self, My joy multiplies. I am near to help you always. My way is easy, and My cross is light. I say, it is easy for those who ‘love’. All who find Me, find the true love. All who find true love find Heaven. Children, bind the Royal Cross of Salvation with Love. You will be lifted up to Perfection. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who is calling you to Perfection. I love you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND MESSAGE OF THE FOURTH HOUR 28 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA ACCEPT FROM ME THIS NOBLE TRAINING OF LOVE In our novena prayer, I saw a vision of Our Lord hanging alive on the Cross. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, I am training you and all My lovers; all the Apostles and disciples of My Most Precious Blood for the warfront. Accept from Me this noble training of love. I am offering you a ‘sign’ through which you shall conquer, ‘the sign of the cross’. I offered to you a Royal Cross of Perfection. This is your Armour, which you must accept in order to win. Accept this cross from me so as to fight and win. In the end you will still hold your ground. Children, you are My warriors whom I am sending to the war front. There is no need for you to run about, looking for a place to hide. I will show you your camp when you come for reparation. This is not a camp for hiding, but where you will come for revival of strength and courage. Whenever you enter the camp, I will empower you all the more with a special grace reserved for the warriors. Children, think of what will happen to a nation if all her warriors desert the war front. The enemy will capture the land without much difficulty. The warriors of that nation will suffer the wrath of their enemy. I am gathering and training My warriors around the world. My warriors know Me and I know them. Children, you are one of the groups of My warriors. Stand firm; be determined and courageous. I will give you victory. Take all the training I am giving to you and get ready for war. This is a spiritual war that will manifest itself in the physical world. You are My warriors. Do not run to hide. I appeal to you, do not run like civilians. Those to be martyred had been written in the Book of martyrs from the beginning of the world. Those to be spared will never be harmed because it had been written down from the beginning of the world. Children, to run is to worsen the cross. I appeal to all My warriors to take their positions; I will fight the battle. If you are among the martyrs, I appeal to you to die a holy death. Never curse your executioners. Bless them, and pray for their repentance as you offer your life to them. Let the last breath of your soul be: “God, forgive them”. This is the Royal Cross of Perfection I am offering to all My lovers. These words of forgiveness will remove the stain of sin in your soul. Then, you will pass straight to Heaven. Do not despair in the warfare. Even at the moment of your arrest, there is still hope for you. I say even if all your enemies surround you from all sides, do not give up. I am near to help. Only trust in Me. Whenever you loose your courage, come back to the camp, I will empower you all the more. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who called you all. Children, you have a free hour immediately after morning Mass till 9.00 am, during the reparation days. The group watch will begin immediately after evening Mass, except the hour of 12 mid-night when I will share My work among you. Barnabas, you will remain near the Sanctuary to write all the messages I will give My people. I will allow your group watch to continue when you start to write the message so that the message will be read after morning Mass. I am giving you all these programmes for you to obey them. I am near to help you. Come with love. I will show you love. I love you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD MESSAGE OF THE FOURTH HOUR 29 TH JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA YOU OWE MUCH TO THE WORLD In our novena prayer, I saw a vision of the Holy Sanctuary of God in Heaven. The Blessed Sacrament was exposed there which radiated bright rays and there was lightning and thunder sound. Within a shot time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “I bless those who knelt day and night in prayer to ask God for the renewal of the face of the earth. They shall obtain mercy from Me. I bless those who accepted My appeal to men, and offer them to their neighbour; I will hear their own appeal. I bless those who suffer persecution because of My appeals for the Divine Will; I will console them and reward them greatly. I bless those who offered their wealth, time and energy in propagating My Will to men, I will reward them a hundred fold. I will see to it that their soul will not be lost. I bless those who are mostly neglected and abandoned in the world because of Me and My gospel, I will lift them up. Soon, they shall join the Thrones and Powers of Heaven in My Kingdom. My Apostles, I am happy with your effort towards the spreading of My messages. I have seen your earthly loss and suffering. I am happy, but I am not satisfied. You owe the world much. This is one of the greatest devotions I have given the world. Look and see whether there is anywhere else I am closer than I am here. My begging voice is offered to you. My appeal is made known to you. My mysterious prayers were taught to you. The greatest gift is offered to you. Nowhere in the world will you get a gift more precious than what I have offered to you. I told you; “This is for you and for all men, make My will known to the whole world”. But you kept all to yourselves. I say: you owe much to the whole world. See how you appreciate the little ones that came from other parts of the world, but the great ones you have are kept sealed within you. Children, you owe much to the whole world. I have done much to give you the Addresses of My Apostles in different parts of the world. You do Me great wrong by keeping it sealed with you. You did not make a move because there was no communication. I have forgiven you because your will is your will. No one can deprive you of it. Even now, there is no reference book with clear editing, which contains all My messages. I am not satisfied. You cannot edit My messages well and give to the world the pure form of My Voice. Rather you succeeded in adding more errors because you did not know the preciousness of My word. Children, I am not satisfied until I see a complete compilation of all My messages starting from 1 st January 1997, to the present, without any error. You shall give to the world all that I have given you. The extraction of the parts of the messages needs to be the second stage; but you have taken it to be the first. The Programme for the Reparation can be changed to satisfy My thirst if you remain adamant. Children, you owe the whole world a great deal for keeping My messages sealed within you. These words you kept sealed are a training voice. My warriors all over the world are longing to hear My Voice. My children all over the world are thirsty. They are thirsty for My words. I appeal to you, My children, to open the tap of My words, the Living Water for all men to drink. Yet, I am happy with your little effort. My blessings remain with you. I call on all My Priests, who welcome this devotion to join you in the coming Reparation. I am welcoming them all. May all who cannot join fully, participate well in the programme of the 14 th and 15 th , more especially that of 15 th September. I will empower them with a special blessing. They will receive a special power from Me to bless My Agonizing Cross, though all Priests have the right to bless it. During the hour of consecration, My Clergy and the first Apostles will have their consecration first, followed by others; lastly My Priest, the Bearer of My Agony, whom I will use to consecrate the world. The period is one of the greatest moments of the days. Pray that you will be there. Nowhere in the whole world will I lavish such a blessing as I am bestowing on you and will pour on you. Many eyes will remain blind till this great favour has passed. They will continue waiting for mercy, when My mercy is overflowing. I am calling My flock to hear the Voice of the Chief Shepherd. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Whom you are crucifying. I love you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed.

Divine rays shone from His Sacred Heart. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place, in the cloud, appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, accept from Me the happiness that lasts forever. I am offering to you true happiness. True happiness is the Sweet Cross of Love. All who find it find life, and whoever misses it misses the sweetness of life. There is false happiness and true happiness. False happiness derives its joy from the world. This happiness is temporary. Its bitterness is great. But true happiness derives its joy from goodness, this goodness is the sweet cross. It remains forever. There is false happiness in pride. In humility, there is true happiness. There is false happiness in pleasure of the flesh. In the mortification of the flesh is the true happiness. There is false happiness in vainglory. But there is true happiness in the false accusation against your name. There is true happiness in forgiveness. In hatred, there is false happiness. There is true happiness in truth, in lie, there is a false happiness. Children, run away from those things that give you temporary happiness and end up in everlasting regret. Embrace My sweet Cross I am offering to you. In this cross is the true happiness that lasts forever. This is why I am leading you through the desert way to the land of happiness. Many will criticize you so as to purify you. You shall be abandoned so as to be welcomed. You shall be sorrowful so as to be consoled. You shall be sad so as to receive true happiness. The happiness I am giving to you no one will take it from you. This is the true happiness, the sweet Cross I am offering to My lovers. Then I said: “Lord we need Your true happiness, give it to us always, we are presenting to You this cross made by the first artist.” (Silence) Our Lord answered. Bring the rest tomorrow. I will chose the first selected one. I choose the rest also for My work. I am happy in all your effort. Barnabas, your Parish Priest will be informed in time. The Programme of 15 th September will be made known to him. I welcome him as well. Children, pray that you will come and enjoy this great favour. The enemy is not happy. I want you to pray. All who fail to pray will find it hard to join. Children, pray also for those who cannot pray. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ who calls you to happiness. I love you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND MESSAGE OF THE FIFTH HOUR 31 ST JULY, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA I HAVE OPENED FOR YOU A GATE WHICH NO ONE CAN CLOSE Today being the last day of the novena in the month of July 2000, I saw a vision of the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ that emanated from the Blessed Sacrament exposed on the altar. He calmly said: “My children, I have opened for you a gate which no one can close. This is the gate of blessing and mercy. The blessing and mercy which cannot cease flowing. Be certain that you do not turn away from it. I am blessing My children all over the world who have gathered under the protection of My Precious Blood. Today, I renew their Seal and build in their souls the Living Sanctuary of My love. I have given them the Seal with My Blood of Redemption. This is the Seal of the Second Passover. Be certain that you do not lose this Great Seal of Salvation. I am pouring on all My children who did the novenas of this great month the fullness of My Spirit. May your faith increase to overcome the Evil One. I promise to be with you during the hour of great Tribulation. I will fill you with courage and determination during your hour of trials and persecution. If in the end, you are among the chosen martyrs, I will obtain for you the Grace of Holy Death. I will be near to welcome your soul in My Kingdom. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ Whom you are consoling. I have opened for you a gate, which no one can close. I have opened a gate to let My devotion flow. Indeed, it is flowing and no one can stop it from flowing. This is the fruit of your mortification and prayers. I am establishing the Reign of My Precious Blood in the hearts of My people. Many souls are coming back to Me. You are healing My Wounds. I am being consoled. Children, I am establishing in the hearts of My Church the Reign of My Precious Blood. This devotion you are afraid of, has been accepted in different parts of the world, though you are delaying the spread of it. Very soon, you will see with your own eyes its growth, how those who rejected you will embrace it. I will make all hearts thirst for My Will, which I am giving to you. People will come from different parts of the world to hear My appeal. I will heal their wounded hearts and set them free. Children, rejoice for I have opened for you a gate, which no one can close. I bless all My people all over the world who gathered under the protection of My Precious Blood. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. You all shall be protected.” Then, I presented the crosses to Our Lord, He calmly said: “I bless the artists, their handworks, and their helpers, In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. I appreciate your handworks. The wood of the second cross of the second artist will be changed to have the writing in the pattern I have shown to you. The image will remain untouched; though the Blood of the hands and feet will stain the wood. So, I have chosen it to be sent to My Pope. Children, I appreciate the Wounds of My scourging in the work of the first artist more than the others. The rest of the crosses will show the horrible Wounds of My scourging and the bleeding like that of the first Artist. I want the Wounds to be moulded well. On the day when an artist will achieve the correct pattern for the horrible Wounds of My scouring, I will be consoled. I choose the Cross of the first artist to be mounted on Mount Carmel, Olo. The first Cross of the second artist will be made a bleeding Cross. The rays of the Sacred Heart should be made brighter. I have chosen it to be fixed at the point where you first heard My Voice. Barnabas, you shall build an Altar of Reparation at that point. In the end, My Priest should consecrate it to Me. Children, be certain that you do not modify this Cross to an extent where you remove or minimize its features, the Wounds and the Bleeding. I welcome you all into My peace as you come for the reparation. Have the messages edited and compiled. Make effort to have enough crosses. Pray that you all will come. Make all My Apostles in all the Dioceses of this country hear and come. I will be consoled. I love you. I bless you all. Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD MESSAGE OF THE FIFTH HOUR 7 TH AUGUST, 2000(7:30PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA CHILDREN WAKE UP AND GET EVERYTHING READY. In our adoration prayer, I saw a vision of the Agonizing Jesus Christ hanging and bleeding, on the Cross. Within a short time cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Christ, Who calmly said: MY children, I come to express a painful agony, which your mindlessness and lack of seriousness cause Me. The horrible moment is fast approaching. The darkness is fast overshadowing the world. The Beast is already capturing the great cities of the world. All agents of the Beast are busy in their work to meet the hour. But My children are in deep sleep as their enemy is gaining ground. Children, wake up and get everything ready before the reparation days come. Let the messages be compiled as I have told you. Do this so that you will not regret during the days of the evil man. Let My Apostles help in editing My messages, so that you will meet up with the time. I will hold back some of the warnings and admonitions I had intended to give you during the reparation so that you will use the hour to edit the messages; if you fail to respond to this appeal, I will do that so as to help you. Remember My children, that I have called you for reparation, not for editing the messages. Children, pray and work hard so that you will not regret the lost days when you enter the hour. The greatest preparation you will make for the reparation is to get everything ready before the hour. The enemy will fight you to make you not carry out My Will, but through your total submission to My Will, I will give you victory. Pray greatly that you all will come for the reparation. Satan has received permission to test all of you. The plan of the enemy is to hinder you from receiving the blessing from Heaven. Even if the days fall in the hour of great confusion, you are called to come. Even if the days fall in the hour of forsaking, you are called to come. Even if it is in your sorrowful days, I call you all to come. Children, pray that you will come. Get everything ready before the days come. The hour is already at hand. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ Who called you all. My chosen hear Me now. I love you all. I bless you all” Immediately the vision passed, (One Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory be…) (The Anguished Appeals - 1 st to 4 th Appeal prayers: Intention: For the Pope and for the needs of the Church) SIXTH HOUR- THE MESSAGES FOR THE BLOOD OF HIS CRUCIFIXION 1 ST MESSAGE OF THE SIXTH HOUR 11 TH SEPTEMBER, 2000(2PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA MY CHILDREN, YOU ARE GOD’S WARRIORS OF THE LAST TIME Today being the commencement of our five-day reparation prayer, I saw a vision of the Holy Sanctuary descending from the cloud. There was a flash of lightning and a sound of thunder. The sound shook the whole cloud. On the altar was the Blessed Sacrament, which radiated Divine rays: As I was looking, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Sorrowful Mother with her Heart pierced with a sword and the Agonizing Son (Jesus Christ) with His Heart surrounded with thorns. Both Hearts brought forth Divine rays. Our Lord calmly said: “My Warriors and My Apostles, I welcome you all into My peace. I welcome you all into My Ocean of grace. Come and draw the graces as much as you can. Fill yourselves with the graces. I say, fill your stomach and your whole being with the graces. This will not suffice. Have your bags and whatever you can and fill them with the graces. Only grace will lead you through the battlefield and bring you home safely”. Our Lady of Sorrows looked pitifully at us and said: “My children, you are God’s warriors of the last time. Know now and gather the graces, which My Son opens for you all, His warriors. The enemy of the Holy Cross is there at the gate of your camp. Children, they take time to store the blood of thieves and liars with the approval of men. Take time to store graces which Heaven opens for you now”. Our Lord continued: “My warriors, see what the brutal men of the enemy sacrificed to get the evil power, I mean the brutal men who are at work in your nation. If your sacrifice is not up to one-third of theirs, you will not withstand the hour. Soon, you will understand what I mean in fullness”. Our lady said: “My children, be at alert. Be watchful always. An extra offering you make after your strength has gone attracts double grace. The brutal men of the enemy offer their god, Lucifer, extra mortification in order to possess the so-called power. Listen, My children, this state, Enugu, will be the last state to be captured by the brutal agents of the beast in this nation, Nigeria. But if on the other hand, they capture this state sooner before others, know that their action against my children will be worse, and that they have a long way to go”. Our Lord concluded: “My warriors, you are welcome to My Ocean of grace. Never let anyone deprive you of the grace you are called to receive. The enemy has received permission to test all of you. I will allow him to do so, so that those who withstand the test will gain a double grace. I am with you. My mother and the Saints are here with you also. Remain in peace from Heaven. I bless you all”. Immediately, the whole vision passed. 2 ND MESSAGE OF THE SIXTH HOUR 11 TH SEPTEMBER, 2000 (12 MIDNIGHT) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA HEAR MY APPEALS AND OBEY THEM. MAKE MY WILL KNOWN. During our reparation prayer, I saw a vision of the Agonizing Jesus Christ hanging alive on the Cross bleeding. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, I feel greater pain than ever when I look at you, My lovers, the Israelites of the new age answering My call of love with coldness, mindlessness and neglect. I receive from you the same measure of disappointment, I received from the Israelites of old. Children, you are the greatest agony I am suffering. When will you come to know the truth and run for your lives? See how I am near you, making My will known to you. See how I opened the gate of blessing to flow upon you. I have given to you what the whole world was longing to have. Yet, only very few of you understand. The few who understand hardly move, the very few who move follow their own will. Whom, then, will I send? Listen, My children, I have told you this before, I am repeating it with tears, that you owe the whole world a great deal. Your delay kept My Holy Pope in long torture and agony. What a big regret if he passes the hour without receiving the Agonizing Cross of his consolation and My gift of love. Children, he is eagerly waiting for the gift of My promise, which you are delaying. My Apostles, all over the world, people are thirsty for My words which you have kept sealed to yourselves”. Children, see how merciless you are. You want to hear My anguished cry always, but you pay less attention to console Me. Be it known to you, My children, that the Eternal Father will judge you with all these anguished lamentations you hear from His Agonizing Son. Pray to hear a fewer anguished lamentation, so as to have less judgment. Children, you shall do this through your own way of life. Hear My appeals and obey them. Then, make My will known to the whole world. I will be consoled. The pains of My agony will be lessened. Children, My joy is not complete due to the messages that I have given not being well compiled with clear editions. I intended to take back the Programme of 15th September, but My Mother pleaded with Me with tears. I then changed it so that you will feel with Me the agony of your disappointment. That was why I allowed the land of Mount Carmel to be tampered with. The land is yours but you must claim it with prayers in a spiritual warfare. You will offer your prayers tomorrow in atonement for your sins of neglect towards My project. If your prayers and mortification of tomorrow please Me, I will draw up the Programme of 15th September tomorrow. Today, I have commissioned My son, Lawrence–Maria Ezeuko to help My Priest, the Bearer of My Agony in the editing of the messages. In the past, I punished a whole community for the sins of a person, but in the time to come, which starts from now, I will hold you responsible alone for your sins. Children, pray and sacrifice much so as to meet the hour. The precious minutes not well utilized are much. If you fail to pray much and sacrifice much, you will regret the precious minutes. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ Whom you have adamantly kept in great agony. Children, I draw great consolation from the Altar of Reparation. I looked at the face of My sorrowful Mother smiling over the beautiful flowers you used. She admired them with love. She touched them with joy. Her joy poured some water of consolation on My thirsty soul. Many of My wounds were healed. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD MESSAGE OF THE SIXTH HOUR 12 TH SEPTEMBER, 2000 (2PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA MY CHILDREN, I AM CHOOSING MY WARRIORS FOR THE GREAT BATTLE During our prayers of adoration, I saw a vision of the Holy Agonizing Face, which emanated from the Blessed Sacrament, which was exposed on the altar. He kept silent for some time and finally said: “My children, I have told you this before, I am now repeating it as a final warning. I say to you, great is the battle, which I am leading you into. I have called you before to come and join My warriors; now, I am choosing My warriors among you and among My faithful lovers around the world. Children, the number I found, as soldiers is very few. Even among you, My Apostles, whom I called. Where, then, will I go to look for My warriors? I say to you, great is the battle to which I am leading My warriors. I am leading My warriors to fight the Red Dragon, the Beast and his agents. I am leading My warriors to fight against the cosmic powers of this Dark Age and give light to the world. I am leading My warriors to fight the rulers and power of darkness in these ungodly days of yours. “I am leading My warriors to fight the Communists and their agents in My Holy Church. Children, I am leading My warriors to fight against the Modernist powers and their heresies. I am leading them to war-front to give them victory. I am leading them to usher in the New Era of Peace. I firmly promise to give them victory”. My warriors will have one sign through which they will conquer. The sign is the Cross of Perfection, which I have given to you. Through this sign, I say, you will conquer. Children, how many will be chosen as My warriors? I have seen that My warriors will be very few. I have a mysterious favour and Sanctifying Grace for the selected warriors all over the world. Through it, I will empower all My warriors. This is one of the great favours I have for My warriors. But not all will receive this grace. Listen, the Divine Presence will pass over My warriors through the Blessed Sacrament which will be exposed on the altar by 3.00 am tomorrow morning, and 3.00 pm the same day, and 3.00 am the next morning. During this hour, you are to prostrate on the ground for 10 minutes. Listen to the order in order to obtain the graces. Starting from 3.00 am; there will be no one to moderate the Programme till the whole hours have passed. All should study the Programme now and know what to do during each hour. No one should wake anyone up to observe this watch. During the hour, anyone who rises up before the time (10 minutes) or sleeps during the hours will gain no grace. You should not discuss anything apart from the Will of God. Children, after you have read the message once, you will not read it again till the hours have passed. The Heavenly Sanctuary will be opened during this hour and will let the Sanctifying Grace of love flow to My warriors. Then, their eyes will open to understand the time. This favour is for My warriors all over the world. Follow My order so as to be chosen. Children, I am choosing My warriors for the great battle. I love you all; so, I bless you all.” Immediately, the vision passed. (One Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory be…) (Anguished Appeals – 5 th to 7 th Appeal Prayers and the Crown of Thorns Prayer: Intention: For the Atonement of the sins committed against the Precious Blood) SEVENTH HOUR- THE MESSAGES FOR THE BLOOD AND WATER OF HIS PIERCED SIDE 1 ST MESSAGE OF THE SEVENTH HOUR 12 TH SEPTEMBER, 2000(12 MIDNIGHT) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA REJOICE BECAUSE YOU HAVE A KINGDOM THAT CAN NEVER BE SHAKEN During our reparation prayers, I saw in a vision, a Mighty Temple that was descending from the cloud. It was surrounded by numerous angels, too many to be counted. I heard them saying: “Blessed is the Land upon which this Temple will rest. And blessed are those who will be called to worship in it”. Within a short time, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ who calmly said: “My children, rejoice, because you have a Kingdom that cannot be shaken. I am offering you a new gift of love. Many nations have expected this precious gift of love, and found it not. But I am giving it to you who did not expect it. Happy are all whose eyes will open to see this hidden favour, which I am lavishing on you, My poor children. My children, I hid My Divine power and miracle from My lovers so as to pour them on those who acknowledge My Presence. I am near you more than you know. I am performing great miracles, which are hidden from the blind eyes of a carnal man. Only very few understand. My children, many will expect to see these days again and find them not. I am revealing My plan in a common and simple way, so that the wise man will be confused. My way is childish in the eyes of the wise. In a childlike manner, I will pour on My people the necessary graces so that the wise men will neglect them and My humble and neglected children will gather them and fill their bags for the days the need will arise. Children, I want you to know that this gathering is greater than any gathering or conference ever had in the past century. No other conference in the world will be greater than this before the hour comes. My children, this call is a great call. Many eyes will remain blind till the hour of this favour passes. Then, you will wake up to look for these past days, which you will not find. I am calling you all to gather the graces. Children, the Land of Mount Carmel has been given to you. You are to claim it. As I gave the Israelites of old the Land of Canaan, so I give you the land of Mt. Carmel, Olo. As they claimed it with physical warfare, so you will claim the Land of Mount Carmel, Olo with a spiritual warfare. I promised to destroy many nations because of the old Israelites, so I promise you the same. As I kept My promise to them, in the same way, I will keep My promise to you. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. Children, have the land at all cost. That is not all; I am giving you the whole sloppy land East of St. Joseph’s Parish, Olo, up to the first small flowing stream, Iyiefi, that is usually dry in the dry season. Go and claim it at all cost. I have a Hidden Treasure in the Land upon which this Holy Temple will descend. There you shall find the Rock of My Agony, which I am going to bless for you. On this Rock shall the Image of My Agony in the Garden rest. It will be a precious stone. People will come from different nations to visit the Land. But if, on the other hand, you cannot claim the Land, I will rise in the meantime to do My work, which is hidden for Me alone. Children, to help you possess the land, that is, the camp about which I had spoken to you earlier, I am still sending you to Olo on the 15th of this month. Your programme is this: You shall move as I had told you by 9 am with the group prayers. You will stop them at the boundary of the town, near the river, Kalawa. From there, the groups will move as I had told you. But you shall not carry anything. You shall move with your prayers to the Parish Chapel of the town, Olo. There represents the Land of Horeb where you shall make the dedication to Me. The arrival at the Chapel will be followed by hymns of adoration and the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. Then, your prayers of Consolation, Adoration and Reparation will follow. Then the Votive Mass of the Precious Blood and the Consecration will follow. Children, remember to read the message referring to the seven followers of Mine before the Consecration. After Mass, you shall return with your hymns of consolation. Children, only those who have participated in this reparation, I mean, My Apostles only, will have the consecration done. When you have fulfilled this programme, I will open your eyes and your hearts, you will be filled with joy. Then you will come to know My plan for you. Happy are those who are called to this great privilege. They are blessed. Barnabas, I will show you the Temple tonight. I will lead you inside the Temple so that you may study it. I will tell you the name of the Temple. My plan moves in a childish manner in the eyes of the carnal man. My children who have spiritual eyes will understand and gather much grace. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who called you. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 2 ND MESSAGE OF THE SEVENTH HOUR 13 TH SEPTEMBER, 2000(2PM) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA DRAW POWER FROM THE TREASURE OF MEDITATION During our reparation prayer, I saw a vision of the Agonizing Jesus Christ hanging alive on the Cross. Within a short time cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “Let all My warriors draw power from the life of meditation. In this are stored the hidden powers. Children, there is a hidden treasure of graces in the life of meditation. Only very few of you have found this treasure of graces in the past years. They gain much from it in this world of commotion of yours. I am calling on all My warriors to draw power from this treasure of meditation. Learn to visit a desert or a lonely place where you will have your mind at rest. Meditate on the greatness of your God. Meditate on the power of His creation. Meditate on His love and mercy towards humanity. Children, you are called to meditate on the mystical sending of the Son of God to redeem the world. You are to meditate on the humility of the Son, His agony, suffering and death. You are called to meditate on His resurrection Power. Children, during your meditation, your hope will be rested on My Glorious Return, which I promised. It pains Me much that My children hardly contemplate well in their meditation. I have a great teaching for My people on the vocal and the inner voices. I speak always in the hearts of My people, but only very few hear My voice. Children, I hardly get those who can keep Me in their hearts for three hours. But, on the other hand, the children of darkness keep their gods in their hearts year after year. Children, there is a hidden power in meditation. Look and you will find it. Children, the grace which you draw from the treasure of meditation can be retained through your silent life. Have your heart filled with the living words of true hope. Listen, My children, a heart that receives double swords of perfection keeps Me inside his temple. In that soul, I find rest. The double swords are meditation and silence. When such a person hears a false accusation against his name, he will adopt it in his heart and meditate over it in silence. Upon him, I pour My power. Such a man is fit to be My warrior. Children, I am calling My warriors to draw power from the treasure of meditation. May all My warriors retain their power through this life of silence. I am putting My words in you, which you must speak through the meditation of your soul. Children, I am preparing you to meet the evil warriors. Only very few understand My call to be My warriors. Children, you are preparing to enter the Final Battle, which has reached its climax. What do you understand when I say final battle? Your understanding is very shallow towards this call. Children, the battle will be so great that a mighty warrior of mine will be killed. Not only that, many temples will be destroyed. The righteous ones will suffer greatly. There will be terror everywhere. During that hour, no one will be trusting. Light will seem to be darkness, and darkness will seem to be light. This is why I call on all My warriors to draw power from the treasure of meditation, and have in their souls, through this call for holiness, the Great Seal. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who appeals for a dwelling in your soul. I love you all. I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. 3 RD MESSAGE OF THE SEVENTH HOUR 13 TH SEPTEMBER, 2000(12 MIDNIGHT) OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA THIS IS THE HEAVENLY GARDEN OF PRAYER LOVENLY OFFERED TO HUMANITY During this hour of our reparation programme, I saw a vision of the Holy Temple of God descending from the cloud. Instantly, I was lifted up in the spirit. There, I saw my very self on guard with an Angel of the Lord at the entrance to the Holy Temple. I noticed that the Temple has one major entrance and two other smaller entrances by the sides. The doors of the temple were kept shut. In the front of the Temple, where we were standing, there was a circular garden with Twelve Pillars at equal intervals. In the middle of the garden, was the image of Judas Iscariot kissing Our Saviour, Jesus Christ. This was what I saw at the front side of the Temple. The Angel offered me a key as he said: “Son of man, have this key; open the Temple”. I received the key from him and opened the temple. Instantly, I saw a dazzling light of God’s Presence illuminating the Holy Sanctuary. And the whole Temple was filled with a cloud of smoke. This sight was so terrifying that I fell down at the entrance of the holy temple. When I woke up, everywhere was clear. The Angel led me to the Holy Sanctuary; there was no separation between the altar and the Tabernacle of God. The Tabernacle resembled the Covenant Box of the Israelites of old. On the altar was the Blessed Sacrament which was exposed for perpetual worship. On the left side of the Sanctuary was the Image of the Agonizing Jesus Christ kneeling on a rock in an agonizing mood. This resembles Our Lord’s Agony in the Garden. To the right side of the Holy Sanctuary was a very huge Agonizing Cross and Our Lady’s Image kneeling sorrowfully at the foot of the Cross. Then, the Angel led me again to view the rest of the inside of the Holy Temple. I noticed that the rest of the inside was divided into twelve parts as gardens, starting from the garden of Simon to the garden of Matthias. Each garden was surrounded with flowers of different types. The three entrances were well maintained. This made the temple to be in four portions. In summary, the inner view of the temple resembled a garden of flowers. The view of the Temple so was terrifying that all my attention was directed to the dazzling light of our God’s Presence on the altar. In the end, the Angel led me out. During this time, I was moved to ask him his name. When I asked him, he replied softly with a smiling face. “I am Archangel Uriel. Son of man, blessed are those who are called to worship in this Holy Garden of Love. This is a Heavenly Garden of Prayer lovingly offered to humanity. So, I leave you”. He touched my head and vanished instantly. I was alone when cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, receive from Me this Heavenly Garden of Prayer. It is a Garden of Renewal. I name this Temple, The New Garden of Gethsemane. At this point, I am sowing the seed of the Triumph and Renewal of My Church, and My Glorious Reign on earth. From this Garden, the seed of holiness will spread and disperse all over the world for the renewal of the face of the earth. I am offering it to you; I am offering it to all My people. Children, if you accept this precious gift from Me, I will reveal the Garden well to you and show you all the hidden blessings. But if you reject it, I will draw back My gift and give it to those who will embrace it. The Agonizing Cross was first offered to My Apostles in one part of the world and they rejected it. I withdrew it and offered it to you. After the blessing and the exaltation of the holy cross of tomorrow, your eyes will open to see the graces you received. So, I am offering you this Garden of Love and Renewal. This is your Camp. The Camp of My Warriors. As I appeal to you, so I appeal to My children all over the world. The work is for you and for My children all over the world. I have prepared them for the work when you call, they will answer”. Barnabas be certain that not a single hymn in the hymns I am inspiring through My Priest gets missing from now. Group the hymns, as I have told you with the help of My first Apostles of this devotion. The hymns are the New Psalter of the new age. These hymns are more precious in My sight than the old Psalter of David in the Bible. The Psalter of David was referring to the old things and was based on the Old Law. But this new Psalter is referring to the coming of My Glorious Reign of Peace and based on the New Law of Forgiveness and Love. Barnabas, I will hold you responsible for the neglect of this work. In the same way, I will hold My Priest responsible for any duty neglected. Children, pray that none of the graces, which Heaven has for you, passes you. Pray to receive all of them. Children, do the Exaltation of the Holy Cross well. If you receive the grace, which I will pour on you during these few days, I will come and share My work among you. You need grace to accept this duty. Pray that your eyes will see the programme of 14th and 15th of this month. Pray that you will enter the gate. Pray that you will conquer. Many live in the flesh; many lose graces rather than obtaining more. Many did not follow; so they received less grace. Remember that the measure you give will be the measure you receive. Let not the work of Martha hinder you in receiving the full measure of grace reserved for these two days. Anyone who comes for the first time tomorrow will not join the rest of the programme. Children, your obedience to My words obtains for you multiple graces. The ocean of My Divine Grace is over-flowing. Only very few of you dare to draw from it. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. I bless all in the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Peace be with you.” Instantly, the vision passed.

FIRST MESSAGE OF THE FIRST LESSON DATE: 7TH JANUARY 2000 TIME: 1:50 PM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: CHILDREN BE WISE TO GATHER THESE BLESSINGS FROM HEAVEN. During this hour, I saw the vision of Our Lady and a multitude of the Heavenly cherubim holding White Roses. Our Lady drew closer to us and said: “Receive from me this White Rose. May it always remind you of your sanctity and holiness.” She brought out another Red Rose flower and said: “My Son wants me to offer you this Rose, to be for you an appeal for mortification”. She then offered it to us and said: “May it remind you of your call to mortify your life always”. The cherubim threw their Roses to us. Immediately, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, appeared Our Lord, dressed in a red robe with a Crown of Thorns on His Sacred Head. He had with Him numerous Crowns of Thorns, which He took and moved towards us. He crowned some heads amongst us with that crown without uttering a word. After a while, clouds came down and covered the whole place. The Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ appeared and said: “My children, be wise to gather all these blessings given to you from Heaven. You will hardly see this opportunity again before the Evil One comes. Claim all of them with faith. My Apostles, who neglected this call, have no share in this blessing given to you. Even if they desire it with tears, they will not get it again. Be careful to follow well in the few hours that remain. Your enemy will make all efforts to deceive you. Be wise to know when he comes. Resist him; he will run away. Children, I will bless the Crowns of Thorns you have through My Priest by 3.00am this night. You will bring them to this Holy Sanctuary and lay them on the floor of My altar by 12.00 (midnight) this night. By 3.00 am, I will bless them through My Priest. At the hour of 2.00 am this night, I will give you all the promises I have for those who have this crown, those who are offering Me this reparation and those who adore Me through the crucifix I gave you. Listen, and hear how this reparation call will end. You will end everything by 12.00 noon tomorrow. At this hour, you would have said your benediction prayers. My Priest will carry the Blessed Sacrament and bless the world. You all will lie prostrate for 10 minutes. He will move from the altar to where you all are prostrated. Never forget to offer burnt incense during this hour. Barnabas, I will show you the departure of the Heavenly Visitors. At that time, I will grant whatever you ask Me according to My Divine Will. You must not forget to give testimony when you see My great deeds to you. After this minute, you all will offer a hymn of praise to the Most Holy Trinity. Go in peace and make My Will known to the whole world. Children, you will never forget to share your feelings with the rest of the Apostles around the world, and the rest of My Disciples around the world. Let My Precious Blood, which comes out from My Sacred Head fall on you all and give you peace, Amen. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. So, I bless you all”. Immediately, the vision passed. SECOND MESSAGE OF THE FIRST LESSON DATE: 8TH JANUARY 2000 TIME: 2.00 AM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: YOU ARE CALLED TO KNOW THAT THIS IS A GREAT BATTLE. During this hour, I saw in a vision, the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ emerging from the Blessed Sacrament exposed on the altar. As I was watching, a cloud came down from Heaven and covered the whole place. Jesus Christ, with His Head crowned with Thorns, and His Face bathed with Blood calmly said: “My children, great is the battle you are about to enter. How many of you will after fighting to the end, still hold firm their ground? Great is the battle that is coming. As you are here preparing, the Evil One, the man of iniquity and his agents are also in their preparation to meet you. They are fasting and invoking the power of darkness, they are seriously storing blood in their blood banks waiting for the time to come. This is the blood of the people of this earth who are under the power of darkness. But rejoice, My children, because a sprinkling of My Precious Blood can dry a million tanks of the Evil One’s blood banks. This is why I urge all men to call on My Most Precious Blood to fight against their enemy. Children, the battle is great. Look! Their number is too large, the number of My adversaries; they are many, their number is countless, but My soldiers are very little in number. This is why I call you and all My warriors around the world so as to empower you with My Most Precious Blood, and clothe you with all the Heavenly Armour. They are not asleep. They are working day and night, since they know they have only a little time left. Children, you are called to know that this is a great battle. Arise and stand firm, your enemy, the Evil One is around you, looking for a chance to get you. This call of reparation is to prepare you to meet the Evil One and to defeat him. To prepare you for the battle, I gave you My Agonizing Crucifix. I promise to protect anyone who has this Cross against the evil force. Through this cross, I will deliver many from captivity. Whenever you raise this Cross against evil power, I will open heaven and let My Precious Blood flow to subdue the evil power. I will let My Precious Blood flow from all My Sacred Wounds and cover all who venerate My Wounds and Blood through this Crucifix. I promise to protect any house where this Crucifix is, against any destructive power in the hour of darkness. Children, through this Crucifix, I will conquer. This Crucifix will soon be a victorious Crucifix.” ABOUT THE CROWN OF THORNS “I will heal the wounds of their hearts those who adore My Sacred Head through this Crown. I will console those who console Me through this Crown. I will open the ocean of Divine Mercy on those who adore the Wounds of My Sacred Head through this Crown. All who adore the Most Precious Blood from My Sacred Head through this Crown will receive the grace of Divine Wisdom. I will guard their five senses. When you touch this Crown with love, I will allow a drop of My Blood to fall on your head, I will renew the love of a repentant sinner who can mercifully adore My Sacred Head with this Crown. Children, there is always a sprinkle of My Most Precious Blood wherever this Crown of Thorn is. I am not far; I am near. I will crown his head with a victorious Crown, anyone who through this Crown adores My Sacred Wounds and the Blood of My Sacred Head. Children, whenever the Reparation Prayer is said with love, I promise to convert twelve (12) most hardened sinners in the world. I will allow My Precious Blood to flow on every soul that hears this prayer said. Their love for Me will grow. I will forgive the sins of a nation that turns back to Me through this prayer. They will not suffer the weight of the curse due to their sins. Children, My way is hard but easy for those who show Me love. Many of you will grow cold when they see the narrow gate that leads to our peaceful home. I love you all. I want all of you to show Me love. This is what motivated Me to offer you these Heavenly gifts. Children, I bless these Crowns with My Precious Blood: In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. I finally promise to show them My Sacred Head one day before they die, all who love their crown and adore My Sacred Head through it, so as to have perfect knowledge of their sins and repent. I bless you all. Remain in peace” Immediately, the vision passed. THIRD MESSAGE OF THE FIRST LESSON DATE: 8TH JANUARY 2000 TIME: 11.50 AM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: THE CONCLUDING BENEDICTION Today, being the last day of our five days’ reparation pilgrimage, as we have observed all the orders, that were given to us by Our Lord, during the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, as we were told by Our Lord, we all lay prostrate to receive the final blessing from Him. Then, I saw the vision of the Most Holy Trinity. The Agonizing Jesus Christ was bleeding from all the Wounds of His Sacred Body, especially, from the Five Wounds. The Most Precious Blood poured out on us. Above the Cross was the Eternal Father Who was blessing the whole world and us. The Holy Spirit showered His Light on us. The anointing of God was flowing on us. At the foot of the Cross was Our Lady kneeling and praying for the forgiveness of sins and blessings for the world. At the same time, I saw a multitude of Heavenly Angels and Saints departing from our gathering in great joy. The vision then remained until the Heavenly Visitors ascended into the cloud. Then, the whole vision vanished. FIRST MESSAGE OF THE SECOND LESSON DATE: 2ND MARCH, 2000 TIME: 12.00 NOON VENUE: MY ALTAR OF REPARATION, OLO TOPIC: LET ALL MEN ENTER WITH ME INTO GETHSEMANE HOUR OF PRAYER During this hour of reparation, I saw the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ bathed with Blood, He calmly said to me: “My son, come nearer to Me, My Heart is in great sorrow. Console Me now. I want you to say your Consolation Prayer now. My Son, I have many things to tell you about the hour. I have much to teach you, but I will only do so through your mortification. I need much mortification for this call. My Son, I want all My children to follow Me. Let all men enter with Me into the Gethsemane Hour of Prayer, every midnight of Thursday to Friday. This is a call to holiness and mortification. I want all men to pray and watch with Me. Listen, My children, it is because of this perilous time, and the terrifying hour that is coming, and that I do not want anyone of you to be lost, that is why I was motivated to appeal to all men to enter the Gethsemane Hour of Prayer with Me. You should know that the created things would be shaken and purified so that the things that cannot be shaken will remain. Children, this hour is very terrifying. Many will lose their faith. Many are already in confusion. Many are spiritually blind. They cannot understand the hour. They have eyes, but they cannot see. They have ears, but they cannot hear. Their understanding is carnal. They cannot understand spiritual matters. They are swimming in this world full of iniquity. They say to themselves: “All things are going well. How can God destroy the world? No Chastisement is coming. They enjoy the bribery-filled and corrupt world. Children, many are deceived; many are on their way to perdition. Be it known to you, all carnal and arrogant men that your happiness will soon turn into great sorrow. Your day will soon turn into darkness. Your sin will soon catch you like a trap. You will not escape when the hour comes. You say, there will be no Chastisement; I say to you, I will start the Chastisement with you. You will live to see the hour. A time is coming when all these glorious things you see in the world will be destroyed by fire. Nothing will remain. Then, the New Glorious World will appear, the generation of My Glorious Reign. Happy are all who will enter the Hour of My Glorious Reign. The second death will have no power over them. All who remain in Gethsemane with Me, will receive a special grace from Me to withstand the hard trials. I promise to sustain them with a special grace of faith and love. During their hour of trials, I will console them, because they console Me now that I am in agony. I love you, I bless you all. Remain in My peace.” SECOND MESSAGE OF THE SECOND LESSON DATE: 3RD MARCH, 2000 TIME: 12.00 NOON VENUE: MY ALTAR OF REPARATION, OLO TOPIC: I HAVE CHOSEN YOU AMONG THE CHOSEN. SHOW ME MORE LOVE As I was praying during this hour of Seal, cloud came down and covered me. I saw a vision of the Agonizing Jesus Christ hanging alive on the Cross. Precious Blood flowed out from all the Wounds of His Sacred Body. Our Lord kept silent for a while and finally said: “My children, I called you My chosen. I have chosen you among the chosen. I want you to show Me more love. I called all men to follow Me to Gethsemane Hour of Prayer. Among them, I have chosen you to come closer to Me, to watch, and pray with Me. My chosen, why can’t you watch with Me even one hour? Sleep could not allow you. Wake up, My lovers. What do you think the other disciples will do? They are in sound sleep. Who then will console your Agonizing Master, if not you? My chosen, how I wish that you understand the hour and turn to Me. Your coldness, mindlessness and neglect pain Me much, more than other agonies I suffer. My chosen, remember that I love and chose you from the chosen ones. Look at the Face of the One Who loves you most. See what your sins have done to Him. For your sake, He is wounded, scourged, crowned with thorns and slapped in the Face. He carried a heavy Cross and was dragged mercilessly to a land called Golgotha. He was stripped of His clothes and stood naked in the sight of many people. He was laid to be crucified on the Cross. All men neglected Me and cruelly criticized Me. I finally hung for three hours on the Cross and died. My children, even if others will reject Me, will you also neglect Me? (Silence) I want you to show Me more love. Wake up and help wake up the rest of the chosen. Let all men pray and watch always so that their faith will not fail. I am the One who loves you most, the Agonizing Jesus Christ. My Son, why are you delaying the project I gave you? What have you done on that...? Why can’t you carry out the project before the hour…? Listen, I will be more pleased if you can finish this project before the month of July and distribute it as follows: The first Crucifix to be made will be sent along with the messages and the Chaplet to My beloved Pope John Paul II. He will bless it and propagate it before the hour…. Then, the second group of Crosses will be sent to all the Bishops of this country of yours with the messages and the Chaplet. All My Apostles will then have their own. Finally, you will spread it all over the world. This Cross will renew the knowledge of My suffering in the hearts of all men. Carry out this order as I gave it to you. I will bless all who offer their time, strength, and money for the call. I will hear their own appeal. Children, I will call you for another Reparation Programme at the end of this project, and bless the Crucifix for you through My Priest. You are My chosen; I want you to show Me more love. I bless you all. THIRD MESSAGE OF THE SECOND LESSON DATE: 7TH MARCH, 2000 TIME: 12.00 NOON VENUE: MY ALTAR OF REPARATION, OLO TOPIC: WITHDRAW THE SWORD As I was saying the Angelus, I saw Our Lady holding a Crown of Thorns in her hands. She came nearer to me and placed the Crown on my head and said: “My son, feel my sorrow. I am the Mother of the Agonizing Jesus Christ. The sword of sorrow is piercing my Heart. I want you to withdraw the sword by making this message known to my children. Barnabas your Mother is dying of sorrow. I said, “Mother, what will I do for you, what is the cause of your sorrow? I am willing to obey your command. I am willing to console you”. Our Lady said: “My son, the enemy and his agents are succeeding in their plan against my Movement. My Marian Movement of Priests in this nation and in some other parts of the world will soon be divided into three parties. Two will fight against one. The small group will suffer a great deal. But through them, I will conquer my adversary and restore true worship in the Church. Then, comes the triumph of my Immaculate Heart and the Glorious Reign of my Son Jesus Christ. The Bishops of this nation except one will support the two groups to fight against the Remnant Group. The Bishop and a few Priests will stand for me and my Son against the errors that are attacking the root of the Holy Church. This is the cause of the war and the confusion. The two groups, though their beliefs are not the same, will target their arrow against the Remnant Group. They will think that they are doing the right thing. But, Jesus Christ is He Whom they are persecuting. My son, this war will start among the Priests of my beloved Son, the shepherds of the flock. The whole flock will then scatter. I am here appealing to you and all my lovers with tears of sorrow to pray much for the faith of the Remnant Group. Pray that their faith will not fail them. I promise to be with them. I am in their midst always. Children, your prayers will increase their number. When all these things begin to happen, know also that the hour of the Triumph of my Immaculate Heart is at hand, and the Kingdom of Glory is also at hand. Finally, when the hour of peace comes, you will see the two groups fighting each other. Through the suffering of the Remnant Group, I will obtain a grace of peace for them. Their eyes will open to know the truth. They will come back and join the Remnant Group. FIRST MESSAGE OF THE FIRST HOUR DATE: 10TH MARCH, 2000 TIME: 12.00 NOON VENUE: MY ALTAR OF REPARATION, OLO TOPIC: DO NOT OFFER ME THE HELP OF SIMON During this hour, as I was praying for the Seal of the Most Holy Trinity, I saw a vision of the wounded Agonizing Jesus Christ on the Cross bleeding unceasingly. He said to me: “My Son, many of My chosen are offering Me the help of Simon. They are not willing to help Me out of love. They are forced to carry My Cross. They do it for two reasons: One, for the honour and what they expected to gain from it. Secondly, they understand the Jews’ cruel thought to nail Me alive. They did not want Me to die on the way to Calvary. They wanted to see Me alive on Mount Golgotha so that I would see with My own eyes their cruel tortures, their shameful and disgraceful acts on Me.” I asked, “My Lord and Saviour what is the help of Simon we are offering to you? I am willing to make your will known to the world.” Our Lord answered, “My son, I am greatly in pain and suffer more than ever when one of My chosen neglects Me. I chose you to show Me more love because I love you. But you abandoned and rejected Me. You followed the world that hates you. You love her more. You are willing to live for her. My children, why can’t you love He Who loves you most? Listen, My chosen, unless you love Me more than you love the world and yourself as well, you cannot be My chosen. My children, you are here not because you love Me, but because you are miracle seekers. If the miracle ceases, you will fall as well. You are not following Me as those who want to know My Will. You hate My Cross more than anything you have ever seen in creation. You only attach yourselves merely for temporal favours. You want Me to bless you and make you rich like Simon who requested payment for the help he offered to Me. If your desire fails, you will fail as well. You do not want to be poor in spirit; you do not want to be neglected by the world. You do not want to be abandoned by the world. You want all men to see you and praise you in your little effort. You are receiving vainglory. Children that is how you offer me Simon’s help. My children, because you want Me to suffer, you reluctantly carry the Cross at last like Simon. This is not because you love Me, but because you hate Me and you want Me to be nailed alive. This is why, after you have heard My messages and warnings, you remain unchanged. You are still in the midst of My lovers and answering My chosen, those who belong to the way. Children, you are offering Me the help of Simon. My children, turn away from your sinful lives. Detach yourselves from all the treasures of this world and know today that the insults offered to the anointed, the chosen ones, are something much more precious for their good than all the treasures of this world. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ Who loves you most. I finally prayed and asked, “Lord, Your word is truth. Teach me always the mysteries of your agony, suffering and death. I will heed them. Lord, what shall we do about the Cross? The first anointed artist could not do it as fast as you asked us. Are we to anoint another artist? We are willing to do Your Will. Our Lord replied-; “My son, I want the first artist to do the work. If he cannot do it, you will anoint the second. He will be the last. If the second cannot do it get it back to the first. Just rotate. It is My work only to choose. You are to obey this order. The rest of the artists that will make this Cross will copy from the first artist I chose. They will not add or minus anything from the chosen Cross. Their works will be identical. I promise to be near all the artists who will ever make this cross. I will put My Spirit in them. They will do as I command. I will increase the blessings I will give to all who offer loving help for the spreading of this devotion. I will console them because they console Me. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. I bless you all.” SECOND MESSAGE OF THE FIRST HOUR DATE: 17TH MARCH, 2000 TIME: 11.30 AM VENUE: INSIDE THE CHAPEL OF ST. ANTHONY’S CATHOLIC CHURCH, GBAJA SURULERE, LAGOS TOPIC: I WANT YOU TO RECOGNIZE MY PRESENCE IN YOUR SOUL ALWAYS. As I was praying, the Agonizing Jesus Christ appeared to Me in a vision bathed with Blood all over His Body. He calmly said: “My son, I cannot even find rest in the hearts of My chosen. I am being deserted. My son, I want to live in your heart from one communion to another. I appeal to you to make your heart a living Tabernacle for Me but none of you is willing to listen to My anguished appeal, no one, not even among the chosen. Children, I have told you this before, I am now appealing to you again, with great pain in My Heart, that I am greatly tortured whenever I enter the sanctuary of your soul through Holy Communion. Your sins tie Me up, and mercilessly drag Me out after callously beating Me. My lovers, can’t you make your heart a living Tabernacle for Me? If others reject Me, will you reject me too? My lovers, it is because of the love I have for you that motivated Me to appeal for My dwelling in you. My children, it is for your own good so that you will not be dried up when the greatest hour of dryness comes. Children, the Tabernacle I gave the Church will seize to exist on the last day but the Tabernacle I built in your soul, as My Great Seal will remain forever. I want you to recognize My Presence in your soul always. I want you to know that I am really living in your soul. Children, but how you treat Me with sin, pain Me greatly. The Evil One enters your soul immediately you drag Me out because the glory of God has departed from His Sanctuary that is your soul. Children, what do you think the Evil One will do to that Sanctuary? He will ruin it with all kinds of evil. This is why you always bear evil fruits. My lovers, I want to renew the Church through you and hasten My Glorious Reign in your hearts. Let My Kingdom come into your souls. Let My Kingdom come. My chosen, I am not appealing to the world now, but to you whom, I chose to be My lovers. I am telling you My Heart because you are dear to Me, but your hearts are not on Me. If you respond to My appeal, My Kingdom will come soon. Barnabas, may I reign in your soul. May I reign in all your lives: I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ whom you cruelly tortured. I bless you all.” Remain in peace from heaven.” THIRD MESSAGE OF THE FIRST HOUR DATE: 24TH MARCH, 2000 TIME: 12.00 NOON VENUE: MY ALTAR OF REPARATION, OLO TOPIC: COME TO GETHSEMANE AND ASK FOR THE GRACE OF ENDURANCE AND FAITH In my reparation prayer during this hour of seal, I saw a vision of Our Lord Jesus Christ hanging alive on the Cross. He gazed at me steadily. After a while, clouds came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, I saw the holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ bathed with Blood. Our Lord calmly said: “My son, I come to express Peter’s denial and how it will manifest in the lives of My chosen of today. My son, many have already denied Me. A great number of people are denying Me now. I say to you many more people will deny Me and say that they know Me not. Only very few will struggle hard and stand on their feet. My son, as I predicted to Peter the coming trials, Peter took an oath that he would go with Me even unto death. He did not ask for any grace, even the time I led them to pray with Me in Gethsemane. I urged them to pray so that their faith would not fall. But they couldn’t watch with Me for even one hour. So, I am predicting to you, the forthcoming harder trials. But how many will later reconcile with tears after they have fallen like Peter? Now listen, My son, it was exactly 12 midnight when one of the maidservants of the high priest saw Peter sitting around the fire with the others because the fire of My love had become cold in him. He was sitting with them to warm himself by the fire of My enemies. His interior warmth had failed, he began to long for exterior consolation and delights, and a maid said to him. “Are you not one of the disciples of this man? Then, observing him closely, and looking at him with greater attention and care, she affirmed it, saying to Peter, “You are His follower”. Peter denied the first time and said; ‘I am not, I do not know Him, woman, I neither know Him nor understand what thou sayeth’. Listen, My chosen, how only a short while ago O Peter had said, “I will not deny you, although all should be scandalized, I will follow you even at the cost of my life”. Now, how is it O Peter, that your courage has failed thee at a question put to you by a slave girl? The Roman Governor did not examine you. The high priest of the Jews did not ask you any questions; the soldiers did not manhandle you. Yet, you do not know how to reply to the question of the little slave girl.” My son, Peter denied Me the first time. At exactly 3.00 am that Friday, Peter was still around the fire when those who were gathered round the fire inquired of him, saying: ‘Are you not also one of the disciples of this man?’ And he denied saying. ‘I am not’. But one of them in particular, looking at him attentively confirmed him, and said, “without doubt, you are also one of them”, Peter replied “Leave me alone, O man, for I am not,” and he made an oath moreover, that he knew Me not. Just one hour later, at exactly 4 am, Peter denied Me the third time and made a greater oath that he neither knew Me nor had spoken with Me. Children, remember that Peter is the head of My apostles. He is one of those who witnessed My transfiguration. He is the one who confessed Me to be truly the Son of the living God. He had heard the word of life and had followed Me through all My life. He ate and drank with Me. Now he had denied Me because he asked for no grace to withstand the trial. Children, I am appealing to you all to come and watch with Me always every night of Thursday into Friday. Come to Me in Gethsemane. Come and ask for the grace of endurance and faith. Multiply the Gethsemane hour of prayer in every Church of Mine, in groups and in families. I am with you. I am in Gethsemane with you to help you. Anyone who devotedly observes this Gethsemane hour of prayer will not scandalize men like Peter. Even if he denies Me due to his unfaithfulness to My warnings, I will obtain for him the grace of forgiveness. He will have true contrition for his sins and ask for pardon. I will not reject him. I will give him the same promise that awaits My children when the evil days come to you. Keep away from the occasions of sin, if you do not want to fall. Run to Gethsemane. Pray always for the elect. My chosen, hear now and run for your life. I am your Agonizing Master who loves you. Peace be with you, I bless you”. FIRST MESSAGE OF THE SECOND HOUR DATE: 31ST MARCH, 2000 TIME: 1.30 PM VENUE: MY ALTAR OF REPARATION, OLO TOPIC: I WILL MORTIFY AND PURIFY YOUR SINFUL NATURE During this hour, I was praying when I saw a vision of the Agonizing Jesus Christ. His Head was crowned with thorns. His Most Precious Blood mingled out from the Wounds caused by the thorns and bathed His whole Face. He looked at me steadily for a while without uttering a word and He said: “My son, I have heard your prayer concerning your life and the mortification. I am the one who is motivating you in your meditation to leave the town and spend days and nights in the desert of mount Carmel, Olo, without food or drink. I will go with you. I will be with you. There, I will mortify and purify your sinful nature, your word, thought and action. I want you to offer Me your whole being as a living sacrifice. I want you and all My lovers to be near Me always. Know that you are living in the hour of darkness. The darkness has been given the power to rule. Remember My appeals to you; make your heart a living tabernacle for My dwelling. I am leading you to the desert to teach you much about the Sanctuary I want all men to make in their hearts for Me. I will give you the Holy Spirit. The Spirit will open your heart and throw more light on what the Sanctuary is. You are to write down the inspiration, which I will put in you through the Holy Spirit. This will be given to My Priest, your spiritual director, for final editing. After all, I will tell you, to whom you will give it, for the Church’s approval and propagation. Then, you will publish it and spread it along with the devotion to My Most Precious Blood all over the whole world. In the desert, I will teach you a prayer of total dedication to Me. The prayer will be used for the consecration of all the apostles of My Precious Blood and those who love to be My consolers. With the prayer, they will constantly renew their consecration to Me once in three years, so that their love will be renewed. I will come and instruct you much about My love, the hour, and My Glorious Reign. I am with you always. Whenever you feel dry, look at My Bloody Face and be refreshed. I promise to fill you with My love. Your eyes and mind will be opened for Divine and spiritual things. I will fill you with power. Barnabas, remember that He Who called you is the Agonizing Jesus Christ. I love you. You owe Me, love. I bless you”. Immediately, the vision passed. SECOND MESSAGE OF THE SECOND HOUR DATE: 2ND APRIL, 2000 TIME: 2.00 PM VENUE: DESERT OF MOUNTAIN CARMEL, OLO TOPIC: I AM LOOKING FOR THOSE WHOM I LOVE. Today being my arrival day in the desert, in my prayer, Divine Light flashed on me like lightning. Instantly, I was lifted up spiritually. Then I saw the vision of my Agonizing Saviour hanging alive, bleeding on the Cross, without any consolation. I approached the Cross and offered Him my poor consolation prayer asking Him to bear the agony. I promised Him that I would console Him all my life. That I will live my life on earth being the consoler of my Jesus Who is in agony. Immediately after my prayers, a cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Jesus Christ who calmly said to me: “My son, I welcome you into this Holy Land. I am with you. I am here to express My love for you and the whole world. I am looking for those for whom My love took My Divinity to become Man. I am eagerly looking for those who, because of the love I have for them, made Me to be incarnated into the world. Your God to be born as man! Where are those for whose sake I was born in a manger? My son, your God, Whom the whole Angels in Heaven adore, who forever is receiving the glorious praises and adoration of the Heavenly Choirs, is now lying helpless and neglected in a manger for love of you. My son, I greatly suffered for this generation. I suffered most for you, and I am still suffering the worst. No one cares to look at the Face of his or her Agonizing Lover. It is because of you that I sweated Blood in the Garden of Gethsemane. Looking at this generation; looking at you, I saw how faithless you would be. Among the faithful that are following Me day and night, and those that are worshiping Me in the temple, I found no consolation. They have filled the Temple with abominations. Their sacrifice is nothing but a scourge to Me. Son, what will I gain from the sacrifice of the thieves and killers whose hands are filled with blood of the innocent ones? What pleasure will I derive from the sacrifice of the hateful and wicked servants who could not forgive their neighbour in their little misunderstanding? Their hearts are filled with thorns waiting for Me to enter. Iniquity, iniquity, iniquity have filled My Holy Temple. No one is willing to console Me. No one is willing to stand for Me and chase these evildoers out of My Temple. My Temple is not a hideout for thieves but a house of prayer. No one cares about the abominable fashion in My Holy Temple. No one cares about the absolute lack of reverence in My Holy Temple. No one cares about the political iniquity that ravages the Holy Temple of your God. No one cares about the marketing in the Holy Sanctuary. No one is willing to care about these iniquitous habits in the Holy Temple like stealing, adultery and fornication, idolatry and the so-called cult practices that fill My Holy Sanctuary. Son, they have filled the whole world with disastrous abomination, setting it in My Holy Temple, driving your God far away from His Holy Sanctuary. Son, if My people fail to return to Me and remove all these iniquitous habits that drive your God from His Sanctuary and they continuously live in sin, the glory of your God will depart from His Holy Temple. Then the Arabian Army, the enemy of My Holy Death, the Evil One will march against the Temple, to destroy it. You will see with your own eyes the days when there will be no morning or evening Sacrifice. Then the people of Zion will weep bitterly for the Holy Sanctuary, the Temple of the living God without any consolation. On those days, you will come to the full knowledge of My appeal to you, make your heart a Living Sanctuary for My dwelling”. My clergy kept silent in all these things that increase My agony. They are all sleeping while the enemy is fast approaching. Son, see how they will be captured and led into exile where they will mourn for their lives and the Holy Temple, captured as they were asleep while they should be at alert. After all the favours I have done for you, you all reject and abandon Me. I am the One Who chose you and called you apart to be My Apostles. I have shown you My Glorious Transfiguration. I taught you all that I have learnt from My Father. I have shown you My simplicity and obedience. I have anointed you, and finally shed My Blood for the love of you. I see to it that My law and truth are written in your hearts. My Spirit, the Comforter is there within your soul to teach you. But in all these favours, you paid Me back with mindlessness and neglect. Your will is your will. No one can take it away from you. Children of mine, why can’t you do the Will of Him, Who died for love of you? If you love Me make My Will known to the whole world. I have wept bitterly for My Holy Temple, My Sanctuary. I am still weeping for you until your destroyer comes to destroy you. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ Whom you neglected. Remain in My peace. I bless you.” Immediately, the vision passed. THIRD MESSAGE OF THE SECOND HOUR DATE: 3RD APRIL, 2000 TIME: 12.00 MIDNIGHT VENUE: DESERT OF MOUNT CARMEL, OLO TOPIC: I ALLOWED YOU TO BE TESTED, FOR YOU TO KNOW AND EXPERIENCE WHAT IT MEANS TO BE TOTALLY ABANDONED. Today, I experienced total abandonment. I learnt what Our Lord meant when He said that He was ABANDONED and that there was no one to console Him. I will say that the grace that was assisting me yesterday was deprived of me. What remained were faith and my will to choose what to do. My rising on this second day seemed to me like someone who escaped death. I was very tired and helpless. It seemed to me that I had stayed up to ten days. I looked up at the sky; it was all cloudy and about to rain. Within a short time, the rain started dropping, I looked around and saw my Rosary, I picked it up and prayed. However, I have offered all my difficulties to God. And I made a sincere promise to God that I will not leave the desert until I stayed up to seven days. The intention of my Rosary was, “Lord thy will be done”. After a while, the cloud disappeared. Around 8. am, the heat of the sun was intense. This made me leave the mountain to my camp. By this time, I was already suffocating and weak. Unknown to me, my first camp was covered with black ants. Out of carelessness and weakness, I threw myself on the ground when I reached the camp to rest for a short while. I felt a bite of something; I wanted to know what it was. Another one bit me. I then saw that it was a black ant. By that time they were already all over me. As I was trying to escape, I fell inside thorns that covered almost that side where I fell. In my struggle with the thorns and the black ants, I learnt what Our Lord meant by His scourging and crowning with thorns. I struggled and struggled for about five minutes to come out of the thorns and escape the ants. In the end I came out and left the camp at once to seek for another camp. I found another camp; the land was smooth and still. In a great weakness, I laid down to rest again. After a while, I remembered the ants and looked around. I saw that worker termites had covered my shirt. On remembering the ants and the thorns, I quickly left the camp at once. This incident made me decide to walk about in the desert. Later, I saw a beautiful mango tree, which is a bit far from where I was standing. I thought within myself that it would have a well-shaded grove. So, I trekked to it in spite of my weakness and suffering. When I reached there, it seemed to me that my rest had come. But here, I received a temptation of the Evil One. Within a short time, I looked up and saw about seven ripped and beautiful mangoes on top of the mango tree. It was not even high up. I could climb and get the mangoes easily if I wanted to. By this time, I was already dried up with thirst and hunger. The Evil One reminded me that the days were still far. That was my second day. There were five more days and nights to go. Immediately I saw these mangoes, I knew that Satan was around. I smiled and simply cried out, “Satan you are defeated.” I quickly left the camp for my final camp. When I reached this final camp, I felt a bit more relaxed and comfortable. But after a while, the condition changed automatically. The cold wind changed to a very hot dry wind scorching me. The tree was not well shaded any more. The intensity of the heat was now much on me. In spite of these inconveniences, I managed to stay there and say my prayers, read spiritual books till evening. I returned to the mountain in the evening. I was tired due to my long stress in the day, so I decided to rest and sleep, but I could not. It appeared as if there was an announcement in the kingdom of mosquitoes to come to attack me. This was not so yesterday. I had slept normally and had felt relaxed. These mosquitoes continuously disturbed me until 12 mid-night when I saw the vision of our Lord hanging alive on the cross. He said, “Be calm, it is finished.” Instantly, cloud covered the whole place and the Holy Face of Agonizing Jesus Christ appeared and said to me. “Barnabas, I allowed you to be tested to know and experience what it means to be totally abandoned by God, by nature and by all creatures. This is what I suffered for you. Everything rejected Me because of you. Even My Father couldn’t hear the voice of His only-Begotten Son because He wanted Him to suffer and extremely suffer the pain of His Agony and Death like mortal man. Indeed, I felt it and suffered it. I am still suffering most for you now. My son, I was left alone to suffer. My Divinity was deprived of Me by My Father. Leaving the weight of My weak flesh to fall upon Me. I looked for someone to console Me, but I found none. I was depressed until the Angel of My comfort came and helped Me to see the little you. He helped Me to see how you will come to the full knowledge of My Father’s Will, and how you would console the Sacrificial Lamb with your lives. I was consoled and named you My chosen. When the hour came for you to be born in this earthly world, I was overjoyed in Heaven because My chosen was coming into the world to help Me renew the face of this sinful world. My son, but see how many of you are abandoning Me the second time. This second abandonment is much more painful to Me than the first abandonment. Come back to Me, He Who loves you is calling you. I am looking for you to console Me. (Silence) Barnabas, I will teach you the dedication prayer I told you about by 3 pm. This coming day I am putting My inspiration in you. When you wake up, begin to write as I have told you. Sleep well. Peace be with you. I bless you”. Instantly, the vision passed. A cool breeze filled the mountain; I recorded and rested FIRST MESSAGE OF THE THIRD HOUR DATE: 4TH APRIL, 2000 TIME: 3.00 PM VENUE: DESERT OF MOUNT CARMEL, OLO TOPIC: YOUR ABANDONMENT OF ME, KEPT ME IN GREAT AGONY OVER THE PAST YEARS. During this hour, I saw in a vision Our Lord Jesus Christ hanging alive on the Cross, on the mountain. I was standing at the valley of the mountain looking up at the top of the mountain where the dazzling light of Jesus crucified, was shining out. An Angel of the Lord came and led me to the mountain where I saw a large number of Angels and Saints adoring the Sacrificial Lamb. Within a short time, clouds covered the whole place. An Angel and the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ appeared, but I could hear the prayer and songs of the Angels from afar. They joined us in prayer as we said the Consecration prayer to the Most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ. We repeated it three times. (Long silence) The Angel advised Me to follow in My heart all his reply. Then Our Lord finally said: “My loving children, My chosen, I am looking for you. I looked for you in the hill countries and in the low lands. I looked for you in the Northern and Southern regions and could not find you. I turned to the East and West and couldn’t see you. I searched for you in all the valleys towards great rivers and seas, still I couldn’t see you. I am thirsty for My lost sheep. How happy to see them back. My chosen, your abandonment of Me kept Me in great agony over the past years. Where were you My lovers?” The Angel and I replied: “My Lord, My Saviour, forgive me for I was lost in the world. Truly, I have sinned against Heaven and Earth. I am not worthy to stand in your sight and ask pardon. If your mercy is granted me, may I be one of your poor slaves. I lost my love for Thee, my Jesus. The power of darkness overwhelmed me. I couldn’t see light but darkness. Through the darkness, the Evil One showed me the pleasures and glories of this world. I was led through the Evil pleasures to swim in the ocean of iniquity and was chained in the world of the dead. I learnt there that his promise was nothing but death; I looked for help, and found helplessness. In my grief under my bondage I cried out, “Who will deliver me?” How happy I was when I remembered You, my Jesus. I remembered Your love for me that caused You, Your life. I cried out again, “Jesus Christ, save me”. Your Name Jesus broke my yoke and set me free. Here I am Lord, I come to do Your Will”. Our Lord said: “My chosen, I am longing to see you back. I have been thirsting for you for long. Come and embrace My love. My lover, but are you sincerely back to Me to do My Will; never to go back again?” The Angel and I replied: “Yes, my Lord and my Saviour. We are sincerely back to do Your Will. I (N) a faithless sinner, cast myself at Your feet to implore Your mercy. I renew and ratify today the vows of my Baptism, when I promised to do Your Will. I renounce forever the man of iniquity, Satan, his pomps and works and submit myself entirely to Your Divine Will. O my Jesus, my Saviour, I am willing to follow You wherever You go. Make Your way known to me”. Our Lord answered: “Now I will show you My way: My way is a narrow way, so rough and dry. Mighty men drop on this way. But it is easy for those who love Me, Jesus, your Saviour. Are you willing to follow this type of road”? The Angel and I replied: “Yes, My Lord, My Jesus, I am willing. I love You. I will never forsake You again”. Our Lord answered: “My way is a royal way of the Cross. All who wish to follow Me will give up the whole world, then carry their crosses and follow Me. Those who try to save their own lives will lose them. But those who lose their lives because of the Gospel and Me will have them in abundance. Children, what again will deprive you of the love of your Saviour, your God? The love of the Cross? The Angel and I answered: “My Lord and My Saviour, Nothing will deprive me of the love of You. I have left everything and followed You. My cross is on my shoulder. I am determined to follow You. My will is to do Your Will. O Merciful Jesus, give me the grace to love you always”. Our Lord finally said: “Children, I have heard your manly promise to Me. I have written it in My Heart with My Blood. Listen to My instruction! “You will be tempted to reject Me, to abandon Me, to betray Me, to deny and crucify Me again. But when you turn to Me to renew this consecration, ask pardon and more grace of love. I will forgive. I will pardon you and bless you more. I say to you, do not despair. Receive My blessing.” Pressing His Hand upon us, He said: “Grant Your salvation to them, O Lord, and have mercy on these faithless sons of Yours. Look upon the Blood, which Your only-begotten Son shed for their salvation and forgive their sins. Cleanse the iniquities of their hearts. Renew and rectify their souls. Put in their hearts the Seal of Your Salvation. May their hearts be living sanctuaries for You. May the Kingdom of Your glory come into these hearts. Father may your reign flow through these hearts to the ends of the Earth. Father, I pray that they may love Your Son and acknowledge the value of His Sacrificial Death. May they stand for Him against His enemy that is fighting His Church. Give them faith to carry out Your Will, which is hidden from the sight of the world. The blessing: May the power of obedience and simplicity over shadow you. May the grace of true love and true zeal fill your hearts. May you all be united in the Trinitarian Love with the holy Vicar, the Pope, along with the Angels and Saints. So I bless you: In the NAME of the FATHER, and of the SON, and of the HOLY SPIRIT. AMEN. Receive this badge. I bless it, in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. May it remind you of your consecration and the Precious Blood that fill the whole world. (He then gave me the badge, and instantly there was dew that fell on me. I felt cold). He again picked up an “Agonizing Crucifix” which has Wounds and Blood all over the Body and said: “Receive this crucifix from Me. I bless it; in the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen. May it renew your love for Me. This is your Armour. Through it, you shall conquer. Remain in peace from Heaven.” Instantly, cloud shook, the vision passed. I was left alone as I heard the beautiful songs of the Angels. Within a short time, Our Lord appeared again and said: “Barnabas, with this prayer, this Consecration will be renewed once in three years. This will be done with the Votive Mass of My Precious Blood and will be done inside the Mass. It will please Me much if done on third Friday between the hours of 12 noon – 3.00 pm. I am ready to welcome you whenever you come. I will give you a vision of the seven followers of Mine who follow this Royal Way of the Cross tomorrow. You will see their failure and the only survivor. Try to describe it well. I will help you. I bless you”. Immediately, the vision passed. During this hour, I saw in a vision Our Lord Jesus Christ walking alone in the wilderness. Later He came near a certain city and sat down on a rock a few miles away from the city. He remained there and prayed for a long time. When He finished praying, He went inside the city and preached to the people the Good News about the Kingdom of Heaven. In the end, only seven people followed Him. They came out of the city and went down to the valley of the mountain not far from the city. In the valley, I saw that there were many crosses there, too many to be counted. Jesus said to them. “These are the rejected crosses which your people failed to carry. Whoever wants to follow Me must carry his cross and follow Me. He will deny the world, deny self, carry his cross and follow Me. The way that leads to happiness is a narrow way. It is a desert way, very dry and hard to go. Whoever goes with Me will not walk in darkness. I will change your sorrow into happiness, your pains into joy. Those who love Me find that My cross is light and that My way is easy to go. Children, whoever wants to save his own life will lose it but whoever losses his life for Me will find it” The seven men replied in one tone. “We have left everything and followed You. Show us Your way, we will carry our crosses and go after You”. Our Lord looked at them for a while and informed them to go and tell their relatives and friends and come back. They all left at once leaving Jesus who sat down on a rock and bent down His Head in silence. Later, they came back. The journey began. Jesus began to give them their crosses to carry. The first person complained of the weight of his cross. Our Lord ordered him to choose from the crosses. When He began to choose, he found out that the rest of the crosses were heavier than his own. Unknowingly, He came back and picked that particular one our Lord gave him at first and said: Yes; this is my own. Our Lord gazed at him and calmly said; is it not the one I gave you? They all took their own crosses. The journey began. They sang and prayed as they moved on carrying their crosses. Jesus took the lead. The journey was a serious one. No one cared to look back. They passed hills and low lands. They climbed mountains and went through the valleys. They suffered dryness of the hot desert. At a point, the faith of some of them began to fail. The journey was slow and steady, yet some couldn’t catch up. Some were five miles away from Jesus, some three, some two miles. At this point, they began to suffer temptation of free will. I saw two of the men cutting off their crosses at the base while the journey was still on. In the evening of the first day, they came to a great river. Our Lord Jesus Christ first reached the river. He bent down and placed His own cross across the river and passed. The rest did the same, except the two weaker ones who had cut their crosses. They measured their crosses, but could not cross the river. They sat down wept and cried to Jesus but no one dared to listen and look at them. They were left there while others continued their journey. This happened on the first day as I saw in the vision. On the second day, they continued the journey day and night. They passed the whole day in the desert and suffered more severely than on the first day. I saw that another two men thought that there would be no other river to cross, so they cut their crosses like the first group of people. When the evening of the second day came they were abandoned like the former ones. The remaining three and Jesus Our Saviour continued. They passed the cold night and entered the third day. On the third day, they arrived at a mountain. Our Lord stood there and pointed to them their last destination; a land of happiness and rest. But before they could reach there, there was a certain city they had to pass. Our Lord told them that the city is a sinful city. Nothing holy can be found there. He told them not to stop in that city, not to eat or drink anything there. Their sins have piled up as high as Heaven, waiting for God’s wrath and destruction. Our Lord said: “I am leaving you to go and look for the lost sheep of Israel. But I will be there to welcome you in the end”. Immediately, He vanished from their sight. The three men found themselves alone. But they took courage and moved on. Eventually, they entered the city, the sinful city. They saw its glory and its pleasures. They were tempted more with all the pleasures of that city. They were mocked shamefully by the people of that city. At last two of them gave up and joined the people. The remaining one, who was more highly tempted than the others persisted in his faith, carried his cross and entered the land of happiness and rest. Instantly, the cloud came down and covered the whole land. I saw our Lord Jesus Christ holding a golden crown brighter than the sun and coming down from the cloud with the Angels, too many to be counted. They came down to welcome the only survivor. Our Lord placed the crown on his head and made him see again the whole journey he underwent and the sufferings of the earth and his fallen friends. Within a few minutes, he forgot the suffering of the long journey and the heavy cross. Instantly, the vision passed. The Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ appeared and said to me: “Son, you have seen. This is how those who followed Me ended up on the way. Only a few struggled to the end. Struggle to enter the land of happiness. The way is hard, but he who endures till the end shall be saved. This vision will be made known to My Apostles on their days of consecration and renewal of their consecration. I promise to give you the Spirit of Wisdom to open your heart for more understanding. The Spirit will throw light into the darkness of souls and renew their hearts. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ who loves you. Peace be with you. I bless you”. Immediately, the vision passed. I woke up; it was exactly 6 pm. So it took me complete three hours to witness the vision. One hour represents one day as I saw in the vision. I came back to myself and recorded it. THIRD MESSAGE OF THE THIRD HOUR DATE: 6TH APRIL, 2000 TIME: 3.00 PM VENUE: DESERT OF MOUNT CARMEL, OLO TOPIC: TELL ALL MY APOSTLES THAT I HAVE FORGIVEN THEM; I WANT THEM BACK. In my prayer during this hour, I saw in a vision the Holy Agonizing Face. Our Lord with His Face bathed with Blood calmly said: “My son, go and tell all My backsliding Apostles, that I have forgiven them. I want them back. They have caused Me much pain and wounds in my Heart. But I have forgiven them. They have crucified Me several times, but I have forgiven them. I want them back. I still love them. I am thirsty to see them back. Tell them to come back to their work, which has been lying idle over the years since they left. I am merciful; I forgive. I will not remember their sins anymore. I will give them back their portion of My glory. I will bless them. How happy, My son, to see My lost sheep coming back to unite with My flock. I tell you, there will be great happiness among the Angels and Saints. Many Wounds will be healed in the two Hearts of Love, the Hearts of Mother and Son. How terrible it will be for the sheep who remain adamant over this loving call to return. He will regret every word of My loving call. When the time comes, he will have no rest in this world. Even the kingdom of iniquity will not hold him. Everything will reject him. He will be left to the evil spirits to be tortured. This is so because he has the Mark of My Seal, which will always remind him of My love for him. Go and look for My lost sheep. Bring them back to Me. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. Remain in My peace. I bless you”. Immediately the vision passed. FIRST MESSAGE OF THE FOURTH HOUR DATE: 7TH APRIL, 2000 TIME: 3.00 PM VENUE: DESERT OF MOUNT CARMEL, OLO TOPIC: TURN TO ME WITH LOVE. I WILL SHOW YOU THE WAY TO SALVATION. During my prayer at this hour, I saw Our Lord hanging alive on the Cross. Precious Blood flowed from all His Wounds. He kept silent in an Agonizing mood. Within a short time, clouds came down and covered the whole place. The Holy Agonizing Face appeared and said: “They have eyes, but they cannot see. They have ears, but they cannot hear. Their minds and their understanding are carnal they, cannot understand the hour. My son, what is there yet to happen, and what are you expecting to hear or see before you will understand the time and run for your life? The Evil One has come. They have introduced their errors into the world. The disastrous abomination has filled the Church, setting up in the Holy Place. Evil fashions have been introduced into the world. Satan’s incarnates can be seen all over the world. You can see the kingdom of Satan in the world where people go about naked without shame. You have seen the perilous time, the difficult hour, when people will be selfish, greedy, slanderous, violent, unkind and irreligious. You are living in a world that chains the truth and allows lies to flow. You have seen the persecution of the truth. What else remains before you understand the hour? You can predict the weather when you look at the condition of the cloud. Why, then, don’t you know the meaning of this present time? My Mother had come many times to you to warn you about the hour. She saw the destruction that is coming upon you. She wept for you. She wept even bloody tears for you; yet you cannot understand the hour. I, in turn, sweated blood in great agony for you. I also wept a stream of Tears and Blood for love of you. Still, you cannot understand the time. Faithless children, you are waiting to hear a thunder sound before you begin to run from the deadly lightning that kills without warning. Run now or else the day will catch up with you when you are not ready. Turn to Me with love. I will show you the way out that leads to salvation. I will show you the way out. You will escape from the land of destruction so that you will not share in the fate of this sinful city. Children, give up this sinful world. Do not share in its unclean bread and it’s iniquitous drink. Run for your lives. See, your days on earth are numbered, the day when you will smell the great wrath of God. I am calling all the house of Israel to run for their lives. Follow the desert way to the Land of Promise. Children, when you know, you will understand. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. I bless you all.” SECOND MESSAGE OF THE FOURTH HOUR DATE: 8TH APRIL, 2000 TIME: 12.00 NOON VENUE: DESERT OF MOUNT CARMEL, OLO TOPIC: YOU ARE THE APOSTLES OF MY GLORIOUS REIGN; MAY I FIND CONSOLATION IN YOU Today, being the seventh day of my desert outing, the last day of my mortification Programme. I was tempted to stay more, but that was not the will of God. I was in prayer when I saw the glory of the Lord coming down from the cloud. In the cloud, I saw the Agonizing Jesus Christ with His Hands tied and His Head crowned with thorns. He wore a red mantle with an iron rod in His Hand, descending down from the cloud as He sat on His Throne. I was lifted up in the spirit as high to the Throne. Our Lord looked up and said: “On the day when My tied hands will be loosened and lifted up in triumph to rule; on the day when this Crown of Thorns will be replaced with a Glorious Crown, and the robe stained with Blood replaced with a Royal Mantle, the whole world will see My loving Kingdom, My Kingdom of peace. Happy are all who are called to see this hour. When this hour comes, there will be no more pains, no more sorrow, no worry, all these old things will have passed away. There will be only one True Church and one True Faith. The whole world will acknowledge the value of My Sacrificial Death. My Precious Blood will reign forever. Children, how then will this hour come? The hour will come soon through you. I have called you to hasten the hour. You are the Apostles of My Glorious Reign. May I find consolation in you. Children, even if the whole world turns against Me, May you stand for Me. You will be persecuted. The whole world will hate you because of Me. You will suffer many disappointments because you want to do My Will. You will miss many opportunities because they are evil, and you can’t do them. All these are what you will suffer so as to hasten the hour. Children, you will not be in a haste to see the hour, but yield yourself entirely to the Will of your God. He alone knows the hour. Your total submission to His Will will do much better to hasten the hour than your worries and your anxiety. You are men of blind minds and eyes. How can a blind man see something far from his reach? He sees with the vision of the mind, what he touches or feels. In the same way, you will not see what is beyond you because they are Heavenly matters. How can the corrupt mind of man understand the incorruptible mind of the Most Holy God? The way of Heaven is not the way of the world. Little by little, I am making My way known to My little children. Do not allow yourselves to fall into confusion or become insane while you are thinking of how Heaven will carry out its plan. No human being will understand fully and explain well how it will happen. Children, I say it is beyond your understanding. What you will bear in mind always is that it will happen sooner than you think. Children, what I need of you is to yield to the Divine Will. You will not stumble in darkness. All will come to pass on the day you do not know and will not know. Then My Kingdom will come. He who endures till the end will be saved. Barnabas, I am happy to see you fulfil this call. Receive My blessing”. He prayed silently for a short time and said: “I bless you, in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. GO AND MAKE MY WILL KNOWN to the world. Peace be with you always”. Immediately, the whole vision passed. I was filled with strength. Later in the evening, I went back home. THIRD MESSAGE OF THE FOURTH HOUR DATE: 18TH APRIL, 2000 TIME: 12.30 AM VENUE: DESERT OF MOUNT CARMEL, OLO TOPIC: BARNABAS, I WILL SEND YOU TO ST. THERESA’S ABAKPA – ENUGU During this hour, I saw in a vision the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ. He looked at me for a while and then said: “Barnabas, I will send you to St. Theresa’s Parish Abakpa, Enugu on this Holy Thursday. I am there waiting for you in Gethsemane. I am calling you and all men to come and watch with Me. I will speak to My people at midnight on that Thursday, I will show you My agony. I will express My agony to you. My son, let My Will be made known through you. Let My Will be done on earth”. (Silence) I asked: My Lord and my Saviour, how can I inform the Parish Priest, since it is too sudden. Our Lord replied: “My son, only submit, I will do My work. Yield entirely to My Will. You will see the gate of salvation opening to humanity. This work is Mine alone. Only say YES to the Divine Will. My joy will be complete in you. I am your Agonizing Master, Who loves you. Remain in My peace. I bless you”. FIRST MESSAGE OF THE FIFTH HOUR DATE: 20TH APRIL, 2000 HOLY THURSDAY TIME: 12.00 MIDNIGHT VENUE: ST. THERESA, ABAKPA NIKE, ENUGU TOPIC: SHOW THE ENEMY THAT YOU LOVE ME During this hour, I saw the vision of Our Lord alone in Gethsemane. He was there weeping bitterly and at the same time sweating blood. In great agony and grief, He cried out that I could hear His bitter cry. Immediately, He fell on the ground. He looked as if He was dead. As I was looking, cloud came down and covered the whole place. The Holy Agonizing Jesus Christ appeared. Blood bathed His Face. He calmly said: “My children, I welcome you all into the Gethsemane hour of prayer. I am pleased to see all of you here. I welcome you; come, come and console Me. My children, I come to share with you My agony and sufferings, the pains, which your sins are causing Me. Son, do you know that Satan laughs at Me, because of you? I am here calling you all My chosen to hear My greatest agony that I suffered for you. Listen, My son, when I was alone and was totally abandoned by both man and God. The day I was first in Gethsemane, you were My only consolation. The Evil One showed Me My total abandonment and faithlessness of the world. In great anguish and grief, I sweated blood for the love of you. The Angel of My comfort who showed you to Me consoled Me. My children, I really saw you, I knew your names. The Angel repeated your names to Me. I carried them in My heart. Whenever the pains of My suffering grew, I repeated your names and was consoled. When you were about to be born in the world I knew. I was happy because My chosen are coming to help Me to renew the face of the earth. Children, now where are you? The enemy is laughing at Me because of you. The enemy said that he would never see you do My Will. Many have followed the evil way. He opened darkness and many followed it. The enemy introduced fashion; you all followed him. He gave you a law not to obey your God; you obeyed him. Children, how long will I appeal to you to return to Me? How long will I appeal to you to be faithful to the One Who loves you? Children, you owe Me love, which I show you. I am here always in Gethsemane waiting for you to come and console Me but you rarely come with true love. Children, you will know that you are living in the hour of darkness, when the power of darkness rules. Those who are in the light can see the incarnates of the devil at work in the world. But those who live in the flesh swim in the ocean of iniquity with the Evil One. Know today, that this hour is the hour of separation. Those who are in the light follow Me and receive My Seal. But those who are in the dark follow the Evil One and receive the mark of the Beast, 666. Children, I am pleading with you all with love to turn My shame into honour, My sorrow into happiness, through your way of life. SHOW MY ENEMY THAT YOU LOVE ME. Prove to him that you are My chosen. I will bless you with a special grace of love. I will make your heart pure. I will protect you from despair. Children, I am the Abandoned Lamb. Remain in this Gethsemane hour of prayer. Pray always and never give up. I am preparing you for the persecution that is coming soon. If you remain in Me, you will not be in confusion. My peace will remain in you. I love you all. I bless you all. Look and see My agony”. Immediately, I saw Jesus again in Gethsemane sweating Blood for love of us. I wept. Our Lord got up, touched me and I came back. SECOND MESSAGE OF THE FIFTH HOUR DATE: 19TH MAY, 2000 TIME: 12.00 MIDNIGHT VENUE: MY ALTAR OF REPARATION, OLO TOPIC: WHY ARE YOU SLAPPING ME SO CRUELLY? Today, being the third Friday reparation for the sins of the whole world, I woke up to say my midnight prayer when I saw the vision of the Agonizing Jesus Christ hanging alive on the Cross. He gazed at me steadily without uttering a word. Within a short time, clouds came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ. He calmly said: “My chosen, why are you slapping Me on the face? What wrong have I done to you? If nothing, why are you slapping Me? My chosen, is it because I chose you and set you apart to be My consoler? Is it because I love you and My heart is on you that brought all the evil in you? You have known My Heart because you are the sons of My Heart. I have given My Heart to you so you chose to pierce rather than console My Agonizing Heart. With coldness and mindlessness, you slap Me as a reward for all My benevolent acts towards you and all men. My sight of your coldness creates in Me a double agony of pains and feelings. I am over-burdened whenever I remember that you are still far from the light. When I called you back and appealed to you for help towards the lost sheep of Israel, you reply Me with a bitter slap. What have I done to you My chosen; if nothing, why are you slapping Me so cruelly? My chosen, I chose you out of your nothingness and set you apart in existence to be the sons of My Heart. Among those I redeemed with My blood, My eyes are on you because you have the Seal of My love in you. I know you before your existence. You are the one whom the Angel showed Me in the garden, the sons of Light. From that day, your names were written in My Heart. I did not forget you. I took care of you from the day of your conception till now. I see to it that nothing harmed you. I delivered you from the hands of the enemy. My Precious Blood is your salvation. When you were growing up, I showed you the light of My salvation. I led you, and made you walk round the truthful garden. You tasted the sweetness of the fruit of My garden. You have known the truth; but now you are denying its power. My chosen, what have I done to merit this bitter slap from you? My chosen, have you sent My messages and this devotion to those I appealed to you? (Silence) You are waiting for the Evil Man to lock the door before you knock. Verily, I say to you, very soon, it will be too late. The power of darkness will rule in full force. At that time, you will understand what you are doing to Me. My bloody tears will then touch your hearts. My chosen, have you made the crucifix as I appealed to you? (Silence) I answered, “No Lord, have mercy on us”. Our Lord continued: “Son, see how you slap Me. This is how you pay Me for My loving gift to you. I will not call you for another reparation Programme until I see My work being carried out. Even if the hour comes that the foundation of the world is shaking, you will not be called for another reparation prayer unless you obey. Be it known to you My chosen that this second call is much more important than the first call. If you do not come together, you all will scatter at the first appearance of the Beast. The enemy will then gain an advantage over you. I am calling you to unite you and give you peace. I know your weakness and your nothingness. I called you to offer them to Me. That is enough for Me. I am demanding from you the littleness of yours. Offer up your littleness. That is enough for Me. My son, I am speaking to My chosen, who kept on slapping Me without mercy. I am speaking to My lovers. When will you understand the time? Verily, I say to you, “the days are numbered: My son, your mindlessness and coldness pain Me much because I love you. Multiply your love for Me. Hold up your slapping hand. Look at the Face of Him Who loves you. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. Peace be with you. I bless you all”. Immediately the vision passed THIRD MESSAGE OF THE FIFTH HOUR DATE: 16TH JUNE, 2000 TIME: 1.00 AM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES PARISH CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: I AM OPENING THE OCEAN OF MY BLOOD THIS MONTH FOR MERCY AND SALVATION. THE PRECIOUS MINUTE IS PASSING AWAY In my preparatory prayer for the retreat I had planned for Oturukpo, I saw the vision of the Agonizing Jesus Christ on the Cross bleeding. He gazed at me steadily, and calmly said: “MY SON, THE PRECIOUS MINUTE IS PASSING AWAY, the terrible day is fast approaching. On that day men will regret any precious second not well utilized. I plead with you My loving children to make use of your precious moments. KEEP EVERY SECOND OF YOUR LIFE HOLY AND UTILIZE IT WELL. These seconds are precious. You cannot get them again the moment they pass. Be it known to you My son, that I am passing My agonizing seconds. The seconds I am losing My loved ones, those I have redeemed with My Blood. I am looking for someone to console Me, but find none. As the days are running off, I find you. I recognized you as My chosen. I was happy to see you again. Son, but even now the precious moments are passing without being utilized. MANY ARE GETTING LOST BECAUSE THERE IS NO ONE TO PRAY FOR THEM, TO TEACH THEM THE WAY, AND TO SHOW THEM THE LIGHT. You have kept My warnings and My appeal to the world sealed with you, while the precious seconds are passing away. And you will not see them again. My son, I chose you to be fishers of souls. Have My Heart consoled through your effort of saving souls. I am looking for the day when My agonizing second will be a joyful second. On that day, all who suffered with the Son of Man will reign with Him forever. Barnabas, why are you delaying My teaching to the world? Clearly, write out the inspiration I gave you in the desert and submit it to Rev. Fr. Christopher Enem for the Nihil – Obstat after final editing by your spiritual director. Then, give it to Rev. Sr. Fidelia Omuta who will send it to your Bishop. The source will not be disclosed to him but the truth will be revealed to him when you meet him and inform him. Then, you will publish it and make it known to the whole world. The title will be: “THE LIVING SANCTUARY IN OUR SOUL – THE GREAT SEAL”. These things shall be done before the second call of reparation. Know you that the precious seconds are passing away. I have seen your little effort towards the making of the crucifix. I will give you the date of the second reparation on 25 th of this month. I will explain the Programme during your novenas of the month of July. The precious time is passing away. Do not delay as before, I plead with you again. Inform My people of the great novena of the month of July. Let it be done in families, in groups and in the Church. I have chosen the month of July to be a great month for My Precious Blood. I am opening the ocean of My Blood in this month for mercy and salvation. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, the Spotless Lamb. I love you. I bless you.” Instantly, the vision passed. FIRST MESSAGE OF THE SIXTH HOUR DATE: 25TH JUNE, 2000 TIME: 3.00 PM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: FEAST OF THE BODY AND BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST. During the hour of Mercy, I saw Our Lord Jesus Christ bleeding as He hung alive, in great agony, on the Cross. He wept in great anguish and grief. His whole Body was covered with Wounds and Blood. The Sacred Heart appeared outside His thoracic cavity and shone His Divine rays on me. As I was looking, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, I saw a hand holding a chalice and I heard a voice, which said to me. “Drink, this is the Blood of your Saviour, Jesus Christ the Sacrificial Lamb. Drink, the journey is too far.” Then, I took and drank. Immediately, my eyes opened, I saw the Glorious Face of the Agonizing Jesus Christ bathed in blood. He calmly said: “My son, and My children, I welcome you all in this great Feast of My Church; the Feast of My Body and My Precious Blood. I have seen the large number of My people who have gathered all over the world to adore My Presence in the Holy Eucharist. I appreciate your adoration; I am being consoled. How I wish that the prayers I taught you had been made known to the whole world, so that My people will adore Me with those adoring words I taught you. I appeal to you once more. Make My Will known to all men. Barnabas, on the days when the Church will persecute you and pierce your heart with the arrow of their mouth, I will desert you but I will not disappoint you. I will also deprive all who stand for you the grace of Divine Wisdom. Some will run away and accuse you, and deny the truth they believe now, while many will look disappointed. Only those who abound in My love will remain. They will suffer greatly, but their consolation will come sooner than others. I want you to pray harder. Only prayers will shorten the days or totally eliminate the days. I called you to pray, up till now you have not prayed enough. My son, I am calling all My Apostles to study the teachings of the Church. That will help you to know the truth and critically look at My teachings to you, now that you have enough grace. If My teachings are truth, follow them. My teachings and warnings will not contradict the teachings of the Church. The Church is My Body, how can I fight Myself? He who stands in the truth need not fear. He will not die; he will live forever. I am calling all My Apostles, I say My Apostles, who are propagating this holy devotion to My Precious Blood for a second reparation Programme. This will commence on 11 th September and end 16 th September this year 2000. It will start by 12 noon of the commencing day and close by12 noon of 16 th September this year 2000. This is a great call of reparation. I will explain the Programme in detail during the novena of the month of July. Barnabas, some carnally ‘wise’ people will ask you why there are the wounds on My Sacred Side on the Crucifix I gave you, since I am still hanging alive? But Barnabas, you annoyed Me. Why can’t you narrate what you saw? This is the mystical Cross of My agony. Your Christ Who had died 2000 years ago is still suffering mystically the pains and several crucifixions due to the sins of the whole world. My Heart, which suffered mystically the pains of thorns, as well as My Wounds are still bleeding for love of this needful world. This Crucifix is the cross of your Agonizing Master over 2000 years. My Sacred Agonizing Heart will be on the Cross as you saw it.” Then I asked, “Lord you didn’t correct me for long. The artist would have finished the work”. Our Lord answered: “I left you so that you will know after learning. Learn now and pray much. When the artists finish the cross bring it to Me for My approval. Enough crosses for you and for those you will send the cross will be made before the day of reparation. If you continue delaying till the day of reparation comes, I will stop you. This Crucifix will be highly criticized and rejected by many, but My lovers will embrace it. I will use your illiteracy to teach My mysterious Agony to the world. Submit to My Will. Your humility consoles Me much. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. I love you. I bless you.” Immediately, the vision passed. SECOND MESSAGE OF THE SIXTH HOUR DATE: 1ST JULY, 2000 TIME: 7.30 PM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: MY CHILDREN, YOU ARE PRECIOUS TO ME Today, being the first day of the first nine-day novena in the month of July, I saw our Lord hanging alive on the cross, bleeding. There, I saw also that there were twelve (12) routes by which groups of people, that seem to represent the twelve tribes of Israel, were coming to the Agonizing Lamb on the Cross. As I was watching, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud, appeared the Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ bathed in blood. In great anguish and grief, He calmly said: “My children, you are precious to Me. I welcome you all to this great month of July, which I have dedicated to My Precious Blood. I am with you always. I am happy to see you again. My children you are precious to Me. My eyes are on you always. I looked after you to see that nothing harmed you. I protect you, especially your souls that are so precious to Me. My Blood, which I shed for your redemption, remains your protector and your salvation. I am sprinkling My Precious Blood on you to see that you are protected and shielded. I am near you always because you are precious to Me. My lovers, only very few recognize My loving care for you; only very few feel My nearness. Children, know today that I am living in fullness among My people, because the spiritual war has reached its climax. As I am near you, so also the enemy of My death is near you. I am crying to your soul to see the light, but you rarely hear Me. You rather hear the deceptive words of the Evil One, and follow darkness”. Children, you are precious to Me. I am the One Who am appealing to you for holiness in your very souls. If you can calmly listen to your soul, you will hear My painful cry of love. Though now the enemy will not allow you. Children, this is a fearful hour of separation. I am looking for My loving children. I am near you because you are precious to Me. Like a Good Shepherd, I am looking after you to see that the wild animals do not harm you. There are many wolves in the forest. All who escape from My protection will not survive. The wolves will seize them and kill them. I am appealing to all My children to come nearer to Me. I will come nearer to them. LET ALL MEN HAVE THEIR LIVES CONSECRATED TO MY PRECIOUS BLOOD. Know you, My loving children, the voice of your Good Shepherd. Run to Him when He calls. Obey the command of His voice. Follow Him wherever He goes. My children, you are precious to Me. The love I have for you motivated Me to come and share this loving words with you. Your prayer tomorrow will be offered for My young seminarians of the whole world. The enemy has been given a little time to act. My chosen ones in the seminaries and convents are suffering greatly. Many have been expelled. Those who have little patience are abandoning their call. This is a great work of the Evil One. I appeal to you to pray for them. Pray much for them, so that you will still have good Priests to lead you to the truth. Through your prayers, I will choose for Myself a large number of good clergy that will carry My Will to the world. I call on them to consecrate themselves to My Blood. You are precious to Me. I am near you always to protect you. Feel My Presence and show Me love. Pray for them; make My Will known to all men. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ. I am with you always. I bless you all.” Immediately, the vision passed. THIRD MESSAGE OF THE SIXTH HOUR DATE: 2ND JULY, 2000 TIME: 7.30 PM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: CHILDREN, YOU SHOW ME, PARTIAL LOVE Today is the second day of the nine-day novena in the month of July. As I was approaching the Holy Sanctuary, I saw the Glorious Face emanating from the Blessed Sacrament on the altar. Divine rays flashed on me. Instantly, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Face of the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, you show Me partial love. Know you today that you are the greatest agony I am suffering. I am suffering your unfaithfulness, your unchastity, your coldness and your neglect. Remember, My little lovers that I know you. I say, your names are written in My Heart. I memorize them always whenever the pains and the weight of the sins of the world fall on Me. I remember your names. I pronounce your names! I look for you to console Me. Many times, I found you unworthy to be My consolers. Many of you double My agony whenever I look at you. I am Jesus who love you, I call you My lovers but you show Me partial love. My children, look up in the world, you will see the devil incarnates, the children of darkness. They dress naked and make up with the fashions of hell, and walk about the streets of your towns and cities without shame. They know and understand the time; so they work day and night against your souls. Indeed, they win many souls. My children, do you see that they love their master much? They show complete love to their wicked master who said to them; “Work hard, win their souls for Me, we have little time left. I will reward you with the glory of the world”. My children, the children of darkness gave their lives to their wicked master and finally lose. Why can’t you offer Me your lives and live? You only choose to show Me partial love. CHILDREN, WHY CAN’T YOU UNDERSTAND THE TIME NOW? Why can’t you know now and work out your salvation? Win many souls for Me. Take them with you and run for your lives. I promise Heaven to you. My promise is true. I never change”. “Children, My agony should be your concern. I sent My Angel to you who taught you My Agonizing prayer. You begged for the unity of our hearts, that you will feel what I feel; but even now, My agony does not touch your heart. It pains My Heart greatly, your unfaithfulness, your coldness and your neglect; but it pleases your heart. It pains My Heart greatly, the evil fashions of the world; but it pleases your hearts. You laugh as you see them, while your Master is in great agony. At times, you follow them. You imitate them. Children, learn today that a single venial sin can keep a soul millions of years in the purifying fire of Purgatory, while a single mortal sin will lead a soul to an everlasting suffering in Hell. How then do you think that you will escape? Learn now and run for your lives. It greatly pains My Heart that you are ashamed of yourselves because you are My followers. You want to live like the children of darkness so as to avoid the criticism of the workers of the Evil One. You are ashamed of Me and My teaching in these ungodly and wicked days. You are rejecting Heaven now. Soon you will look for it. All who are candidates of Heaven should keep on imitating Heavenly beings since you see, My children, that the children of darkness are imitating the demons of Hell who dress naked and live in iniquity. There is Heavenly beauty and earthly beauty. Children, I plead with you to choose the Heavenly beauty. Understand the time and run for your lives. Children, promote not the work of the Evil One. There are many symbols of the wicked one in the world market. They are not for you. Be wise to understand the cunning ways of the Evil One, since they are wise to understand your ways. Children, do this so as to complete your love for Me. I show you great love. You show Me partial love. Offer your prayers tomorrow mostly for the purity of My Priests. The enemy has won a great advantage over their holiness. A greater number, I say, a greater number is falling from grace. Ask for a sanctifying grace on their behalf. I am greatly displeased at the way they offer the Sacrament of Penance. Children, the greatest Angel in Heaven has no power to forgive the smallest venial sin. But I have given the power to mere mortal men, My Priests, to carry out this ministry for My people. Know you, My Priests, that a single power to forgive a mortal sin is greater than the power I used in creation. I need your mortification. I need your holiness. I recommend to you the putting on of your stole when you administer this great Sacrament. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ Who chose you and made you My Priests. I demand from you what I AM. You are the greatest agony I suffer. I love you greatly. I bless you”. Immediately, the vision passed, then I came back to myself. FIRST MESSAGE OF THE SEVENTH HOUR DATE: 3RD JULY, 2000 TIME: 8.30 PM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: CHILDREN, YOUR UNFAITHFULNESS HINDERS MY GLORIOUS REIGN ON EARTH. In our adoration prayers in the novena of the month of July, I saw the vision of a Holy chalice surrounded with Thorns. As I was watching, cloud shook and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “MY CHILDREN, YOUR LIVES WEDGE MY GLORIOUS REIGN ON EARTH. I say; your lives are hindering the kingdom of peace on earth. I am looking to see your maturity, but I always find your unfaithfulness. Whenever I see your faithlessness My Heart is weakened. Children, you are prolonging My Agonizing days”. “I called you to hasten My Glorious Reign on earth. There are many who live as though they love Me but their lives prove that they don’t. They are the enemies of My Holy Death. Children, such people even follow Me and praise My Holy Name. But they really deny the truth of My teaching. They follow their own way like Judas Iscariot who first betrayed Me. I say, they are the Judases of this last age. Children, I am looking to see the repentant heart of Mary Magdalene again among My people. I am looking to see a loving daughter like her. Apart from My loving Mother, she was the first daughter to hasten My Glorious Reign on earth. Children, as she saw her loving Master weeping out of sorrow, when My Agonizing day was approaching, she neared Me and consoled Me. She was the first daughter who anointed My Sacred Head and Feet. She felt the cruel torture of My Sacred Head. How the wicked man will lacerate and disfigure the Temple of Divine Wisdom, she felt sorry and adored the Lamb of Sacrifice. Children, indeed, she lifted My tired Hand. She consoled My Agonizing Heart. She hastened My Glorious Reign. Even at the moment of her criticism by Judas Iscariot, she remained firm. She remained My consoler. O! When shall My eyes see a loving daughter like her? When shall I see in you the true repentance? When will you go like her and sin no more? “Children, your unfaithfulness wedges My Glorious Reign. Turn to Me with true repentance. Learn from Me for I am Meek and Humble of Heart. Choose for yourselves the Royal way of the Cross. Forget self; crucify on the cross your earthly being. Then carry your cross daily and follow me. The sooner you respond to My call, the sooner you hasten the hour of My peace through your holiness, while your unfaithfulness wedges the day and prolongs My agonizing days. Children, you will offer your prayers tomorrow mostly for the welfare of the Vatican City. My agony increases as the day approach. My Heart suffers greatly as He (the Pope) feels the awful day approaching. Suffer with the Pope the agony of the last fight. My children, fear not, when you feel or hear about terrible confusion or great disorderliness in the Vatican City. You should not run about. You should not disobey. Remain in obedience. I am near to help you and lead you. You will understand much during the hour. The hour will not be as great and terrible for you as it shall be for the world. My peace will remain with you. My Mother’s Immaculate Heart will protect you. I told you this before so that your heart will not be troubled when the hour comes. Children, answer when I call you. Remember that your lives hinder My Glorious Reign on earth. All of you who wait in laziness for the day of the great Tribulation will stumble when the day comes. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ whom you have kept in a dark prison of great agony. I called you to hasten My kingdom on earth. I love you all. I bless you all.” SECOND MESSAGE OF THE SEVENTH HOUR DATE: 4TH JULY, 2000 TIME: 7.30 PM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: I CALLED YOU TO TRAIN YOU AND FILL YOU WITH POWER During our adoration prayer, I saw the vision of the crucified Jesus Christ, hanging alive on the Cross, bleeding for love of us. After a while, cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ, Who calmly said: “My children, you are My warriors of the last fight. I called you to train you and fill you with power, so that you will be able to face the enemy and defeat him. I called you to clothe you with all the Heavenly Armour, so that the evil weapon of the enemy will not harm you. Come nearer to Me and have My Great Seal. Do these novenas well, so as to receive My blessing in full. This year marks the fourth year I gave you this great favour, the month of July, the month in which My blessing and mercy flow like a river to the thirsty souls. I am calling you all to My side to feel My warming care and hear My teachings. I am calling you to train you so that you will not be defeated when the hour comes. I say to you, My children that all who participated fully and devotedly in these great novenas in the month of July, are sure of being protected in their lifetime and in the terrible hour of the coming Chastisement. I will clothe them with the Heavenly Armour. I will fill them with power. I will give them the Heavenly Warrior to be their guard. Children, I called this month a great month because the bloody tears of My Mother have obtained for her children great favour in this month. Your own eyes shall also see a great thing in this great month. I am calling you all to train you and make you ready to meet the hour. The dreadful hour I have foretold you. Learn all the teachings I am giving to you. Do not grow up like Barak who had less confidence and faith in My Words. Though he later went to the battle, he had no grace for his work. Have confidence and trust in My words like My servants, Moses, Joshua and David who led My people to great battles, and won in My Name. I say My children, that it shall be as it was in the time of Elijah. There will be a great battle between My people and the children of Baal, The Red Beast. The wicked Jezebel will come again. I say, the one who will act like the old Jezebel will come. She will force all men to worship the Baal; I say, the wicked Red Beast. Many prophets of Mine will be martyred. Large number of My people will worship the Beast and get lost forever. The hour will be so terrifying. Who then will survive without an adequate preparation? I led My son, Elijah, in his forty days mortification in the desert without food or drink, so that he would be able to fight and win the battle. Indeed, he received My teachings and was filled with power. So he won the battle. I am calling you all, My children, to be filled with the same spirit I gave to Elijah in the desert. Learn much from My son Elijah. Trust in My power like him. Fight the evil prophet of Baal with total confidence in Me as he did. I will give you victory as I did in the time of Elijah. Children, the coming battle is so great. Only the strong warriors will fight the battle and still hold their ground. Receive from Me now all the Armour needed for the battle. I am giving it to you now. I say receive from Me this great month of July. Children, you will offer your prayers tomorrow for the days of exile of My sorrowful Pope. Children, if in the end this hour finally comes, know you that you are in exile. At that time you will fully learn what I meant when I said, Let your heart (soul) be a living Tabernacle for My dwelling. Be ready to meet the hour. Take advantage of My trainings and teachings. Pray always and never give-up. I am with you always. I love you all. I bless you all.” Instantly, the vision passed. THIRD MESSAGE OF THE SEVENTH HOUR DATE: 5TH JULY, 2000 TIME: 7.30 PM VENUE: OUR LADY OF LOURDES CHAPEL, IMEZI OWA TOPIC: WHO WILL OFFER ME A DRINK? In our adoration prayer, during the novena, I saw the vision of Our Lady kneeling at the foot of the crucified Jesus Christ, Who was hanging alive, bleeding on the cross. As I was looking to hear her consoling words of prayer, a cloud came down and covered the whole place. In the cloud appeared the Holy Agonizing Face of Jesus Christ bathed with Blood. He wept as He said: “Where are Peter and his brothers to offer Me a drink? Where are they? I am thirsty! I am thirsty!! I am thirsty!!! Who will offer Me a drink? Children, I am thirsty for love of you. My children, I am suffering a great thirst for love of you. I am as I was on the day of My Crucifixion. I am on My mystical Agonizing Cross over 2000 years as I was on the Cross three hours, begging for a drink. I say; I am thirsty. Would that Peter is near, he would have offered Me a drink. What about James? Where is Andrew? My apostles have deserted Me. Simon, even you, who owe Me great love. When you met Me with Leprosy, you clung on Me. I healed you and made you clean. Simon, you see Me now that I am a Leper, demanding a drink, you neglected Me. You abandoned Me. Simon; you owe Me a great love. When I looked and saw John holding My Sorrowful Mother, I was consoled. Indeed, he was the only Apostle who offered Me a drink. Behind them were the women disciples who wept for Me. Truly; they consoled Me. They offered Me a drink. Children, I am looking to see an Apostle, so loving like John. His heart nearly broke when he heard his loving Master weeping in a great agony, and asking for a drink. He thought of changing his tears into a flow of river, so that his dying Master will have a drink before passing into eternity. My poor John had nothing to offer Me. But love made him know that the sight of My Sorrowful Mother will satisfy My thirst. He offered Me My loving Mother. I drank, I was satisfied and, I said: “It is finished”. Children, you are My Apostles of this last age. Come nearer to Me on the Cross. Come and hear My Agonizing Appeal. I am thirsty. I am thirsty. My tongue has dried up. The sweat of My Agony has made Me very dry. Do not abandon Me like Peter and his brothers did. Come nearer to Me like John and the women disciples. Offer Me My Sorrowful Mother. Children, you owe Me much. I say, you owe Me more than what Simon owed Me. You are the group of lepers whom I saw at their point of death. You lost all your strength at that time. You did not even see or know those who came to see you. You were condemned and abandoned, but I saw you. I embraced you. I kissed you. I healed you. Now you see Me as a Leper, and you abandon Me. I am crying to you to offer Me a drink. You heard Me and said: How can I communicate with that Leper man? You see Me and you run away. Children, you owe Me great love. I am thirsty for the large number of souls who are getting lost. I am thirsty for the truth, which you have abandoned. I am thirsty because of the great abominations that are being set up in the Holy Place. I am thirsty for the painful cry of the aborted babies. I am greatly thirsty because of your unfaithfulness. Your fear of doing the good things dried Me up. You fear like Peter and his brothers. You could not stand for Me. Come nearer to Me and offer Me a drink. Stand for Me against the evils of your days. I am the Agonizing Jesus Christ, Who demands from you “a drink”. Children, you will offer your prayers tomorrow in atonement for the sins committed against your Saviour in the Blessed Sacrament. You are driving your God away from His Holy Sanctuary. Know you today, My children, that on the day the Second Beast will climb the highest throne in My holy Church the Glory of your God will depart. Then, you will see with your own eyes the awful days, when there will be no morning and evening Sacrifice. At that time, you will know what I meant when I said to you, be sealed. I have told you this before, I am lamenting it again with tears; fear the Presence of your God in the Blessed Sacrament. Approach Him with fear and love. No unqualified person has any right to participate in the Feast of the only Sacrificial Lamb of God. All who eat the Body and Blood of the New Covenant in a state of sin are already condemned. Only the Levities have the right to carry the New Ark of the Covenant. Only My Priests have the right to work in the Most Holy Place. But children, have your will; your will is your will. I am thirsty. I am thirsty for you. When the Second Beast appears, you will all understand. (Silence) Children, I will draw up the Programme of the second reparation prayer tomorrow. I will also send St. Cecilia to teach you The Atonement Prayer with the Crown of Thorns on the 14th of this month. She will teach you much. I am near to help you. I love you all. I bless you all.” Immediately, the vision passed.
- HARVEST OF JOY AND GOD’S LOVE(Mk 6:1-6; Douay-Rheims Bible)
“AND going out from thence, Jesus went into His own country; and His disciples followed Him. And when the sabbath was come, He began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing Him were in admiration at His doctrine, saying: How came this man by all these things? and what wisdom is this that is given to Him, and such mighty works as are wrought by His hands? Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joseph, and Jude, and Simon? are not also His sisters here with us? And they were scandalized in regard of Him. And Jesus said to them: A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred. And He could not do any miracles there, only that He cured a few that were sick, laying His hands upon them. And He wondered because of their unbelief, and He went through the villages round about teaching.” My dearest beloved brethren, “A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and in his own house, and among his own kindred”, Jesus tells His countrypeople. (Mk 6:4). They knew Jesus very well that they couldn’t come to terms that a man they knew his family so well, was performing miracles and doing so many good deeds and was that famous. Envy, jealousy, and hatred overtook them to the point that they didn’t want Jesus around. The attitude of the people made Jesus unable to perform more miracles in His own country. At last, not Jesus, but His county people were the losers. I pray for us not to reject the work of God in our lives and may we also not prevent the Spirit of God from taking over our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen. You recognize that everyone is not created the same and we all have different gifts from God. You give God the glory for others’ blessings and successes, dear humble children of our Lord Jesus Christ. Instead of seeing Jesus as God the Son who has power over everything and over everyone, all His countrymen and women could say about Him was that He was a common Carpenter whose brothers and sisters they all knew well. Jesus was not welcome in His own country. Human beings are like that. They like to group or Categorize others. Most of the time this type of grouping is due to familiarity, jealousy, hatred, envy, and so on. Many a time we hear things like: tallest or shortest; white or black; intelligent or unintelligent, well-behaved or stubborn, beautiful or ugly, and so many of the likes. There was a case of a 2nd-grade school boy who was awarded all 15 academic awards that his school had for his class. At the end of the award ceremony, one of the parents approached this 2nd grader’s dad and told him to tell his son who received all 15 awards that it wouldn’t continue like that and that it will get tougher for him as he progressed. Note that this parent did not even congratulate the little boy, neither did he congratulate the boy’s dad for work well done. Well, one was white and the other black, and the 2nd grader’s dad didn’t talk because he felt that racism played a part in what the other parent said to him. But the white man could have asked what the other man did differently that made his son perform so well. Who knows, he may have gotten some good tips but instead he lost out. I pray that we don’t allow Jealousy and envy and hatred to rob us of the blessings God prepared for us especially through our fellow human beings, both today and every day of our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. Be courageous and fearless in the Lord; for God is with you. You’re blessed; remain blessed!!!
- HARVEST OF JOY AND GOD’S LOVE(Mk 5:21-43; Douay-Rheims Bible)
“And when Jesus had passed again in the ship over the strait, a great multitude assembled together unto Him, and He was nigh unto the sea. And there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue named Jairus: and seeing Him, falleth down at His feet. And he besought Him much, saying: My daughter is at the point of death, come, lay Thy hand upon her, that she may be safe, and may live. And He went with him, and a great multitude followed Him, and they thronged Him. And a woman who was under an issue of blood twelve years, And had suffered many things from many physicians; and had spent all that she had, and was nothing the better, but rather worse, When she had heard of Jesus, came in the crowd behind Him and touched His garment. For she said: If I shall touch but His garment, I shall be whole. And forthwith the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the evil. And immediately Jesus knowing in Himself the virtue that had proceeded from Him, turning to the multitude, said: Who hath touched My garments? And His disciples said to Him: Thou seest the multitude thronging Thee, and sayest Thou who hath touched Me? And He looked about to see her who had done this. But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before Him, and told Him all the truth. And He said to her: Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go in peace and be thou whole of thy disease. While He was yet speaking, some come from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying: Thy daughter is dead: why dost thou trouble the master any further? But Jesus having heard the word that was spoken, saith to the ruler of the synagogue: Fear not, only believe. And He admitted not any man to follow Him, but Peter, and James, and John the brother of James. And they come to the house of the ruler of the synagogue; and He seeth a tumult, and people weeping and wailing much. And going in, He saith to them: Why make you this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed Him to scorn. But He having put them all out, taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with Him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying. And taking the damsel by the hand, He saith to her: Talitha cumi, which is, being interpreted: Damsel (I say to thee) arise. And immediately the damsel rose up, and walked: and she was twelve years old: and they were astonished with a great astonishment. And He charged them strictly that no man should know it: and commanded that something should be given her to eat.” My dearest beloved brethren, when Jesus realized that power had gone out of Him after the woman with the issue of blood for twelve years touched His garments, Jesus asked: “Who hath touched My garments?” At this point, Jesus already knew who touched His garments but He asked the question anyway. The woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years trembled and was clearly in fear, yet she fell before the Lord and admitted and told the Lord the whole truth. This woman didn’t hide away; she didn’t tell lies; she didn’t keep silent to hide who she was; she said the whole truth and her truthfulness was one of the virtues that saved her and healed her. I pray Lord to grant us the Grace of being truthful and saying the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth all the time, to ourselves, to everyone around us and most importantly to God, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen. Your BELIEF and FAITH in God and your never ever yielding to the forces of darkness, are the SEAL that unites and bonds you with the Lord Jesus Christ and makes you have a strong relationship with Him, dear brothers and sisters in Christ. The woman with the issue of blood said to herself: “If I shall touch but His garment, I shall be whole.” (Mk 5:28). That is strong faith that she has. Then the Lord seeing that she was a truthful person said to her: “Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole: go in peace and be thou whole of thy disease.” (Mk 5:34). Here the Lord Jesus focused on the faith the woman has. Notice also that while one of the rulers of the Synagogue names Jairus was pleading with the Lord to come and lay His hands on her daughter who was at the point of death, to heal her, some people came from his house, and told him not to trouble the Lord any further because his daughter was already dead. Jesus heard what they told Jairus and He said to Jairus: “Fear not, only believe.” Here the Lord’s emphasis was on Belief. Jairus believed and his dead daughter was brought back to life and healed by Jesus. Having FAITH and BELIEVING in God are two qualities that cannot be separated. They go hand-in-hand. We need to believe in order to have faith and we need to have faith in order to believe. I pray the Lord to grant the graces of FAITH and of BELIEF, today and every day of our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. Be courageous and fearless in the Lord; for God is with you. You’re blessed; remain blessed!!!
- HARVEST OF JOY AND GOD’S LOVE(Mk 5:1-20; Douay-Rheims Bible)
“AND they came over the strait of the sea into the country of the Gerasens. And as Jesus went out of the ship, immediately there met Him out of the monuments a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling in the tombs, and no man now could bind him, not even with chains. For having been often bound with fetters and chains, he had burst the chains, and broken the fetters in pieces, and no one could tame him. And he was always day and night in the monuments and in the mountains, crying and cutting himself with stones. And seeing Jesus afar off, he ran and adored Him. And crying with a loud voice, he said: What have I to do with Thee, Jesus the Son of the most high God? I adjure Thee by God that Thou torment me not. For He said unto him: Go out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And He asked him: What is thy name? And he saith to Him: My name is Legion, for we are many. And he besought Him much, that he would not drive him away out of the country. And there was there near the mountain a great herd of swine, feeding. And the spirits besought Him, saying: Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them. And Jesus immediately gave them leave. And the unclean spirits going out, entered into the swine: and the herd with great violence was carried headlong into the sea, being about two thousand, and were stifled in the sea. And they that fed them fled, and told it in the city and in the fields. And they went out to see what was done: And they came to Jesus, and they see him that was troubled with the devil, sitting, clothed, and well in his wits, and they were afraid. And they that had seen it, told them, in what manner He had been dealt with who had the devil; and concerning the swine. And they began to pray Him that He would depart from their coasts. And when He went up into the ship, he that had been troubled with the devil, began to beseech Him that he might be with Him. And He admitted him not, but saith to him: Go into thy house to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had mercy on thee. And he went his way, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men wondered.” My dearest beloved brethren, when the evil spirit that possessed the man in today’s Bible reading saw Jesus, “he ran and adored Him.” This shows us that demons also adore the Lord. If demons can recognize Jesus and adore Him, why can’t we do the same in a consistent manner? The evil spirits in the man were scared of being tormented by Jesus that they begged Him to cast them into the swine instead of being chased out of the country. “My name is Legion, for we are many,” the evil spirit said to the Lord. Evil spirits also are afraid of people who have Christ in them because the evil spirits recognize the Lord Jesus Christ who lives in His children. Christ’s children can also cast out demons as a result and most of the time these evil spirits are many; they are Legion. I pray that we faithfully serve, worship, and adore the Lord, for the Lord Jesus to live in us and continue to give us authority over all evil spirits and all evils, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen. You appreciate God and give Him glory for all the blessings and good things He is doing for you and that’s why God will continue to bless you more and more, dear faithful believers in Christ. Notice that the man who was possessed by demons went back to Jesus and begged Jesus to permit him to be with Him. But Jesus told him that he should rather go and tell his people about the good Jesus did for him. When this man left, he “began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him.” How often do we remember to thank God for all He has, and is still doing for us? How often do we give testimony for God’s kindness to us? Many people rather than giving thanks, praise, honor, and glory to God for God’s blessings, love, and kindness, would use evil and all crimes and atrocities to pay back Jesus for His good. I pray that we'll be given the grace to use every single opportunity we have to give honor, praise, and glory to God, and also to worship and adore the Lord, today and every day of our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. Be courageous and fearless in the Lord; for God is with you. You’re blessed; remain blessed!!!
- HARVEST OF JOY AND GOD’S LOVE(1 Cor 1:26-31; Douay-Rheims Bible).
“For see your vocation, brethren, that there are not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble: But the foolish things of the world hath God chosen, that He may confound the wise, and the weak things of the world hath God chosen, that He may confound the strong. And the base things of the world, and the things that are contemptible, hath God chosen, and things that are not, that He might bring to naught things that are: That no flesh should glory in His sight. But of Him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and justice, and sanctification, and redemption: That, as it is written: He that glorieth, may glory in the Lord.” My dearest beloved brethren, in today’s Bible reading, St. Paul tells us that among those who God chose are the foolish not the wise, and the weak not the strong. St. Paul tells us that God took those decisions to shame the wise, and the strong, and in our world today, it’s the same as God choosing the poor and not the rich and wealthy and choosing the nobody and not the famous so as to shame the wealthy and the famous. It should be clear that God does not despise the wise, the strong, the rich/wealthy, the famous, and so on. Rather God also chose some of them but most of the chosen ones were not the top class famous citizens. The most important thing for us is to be in Christ and remember that without God, we will not be who we are. I pray for us not to forget God who created us and planned our lives before we were conceived, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen. You started your life as a naked nobody and have become somebody today. Throughout your life journeys, you have given honor and glory to God and God only. May God never forget you, dear God’s chosen people. St. Paul reminds us that “as it is written: he that glorieth, may glory in the Lord.” Some other versions of the Bible put it this way: “Whoever boasts, should boast in the Lord.” If God had chosen only the rich and the wise, it may have gotten into their heads, and the poor and the unwise would feel despised by the forces of nature. Today’s Bible reading made us know that the NOT well-to-do in society who also have the Spirit of God in them, are blessed. This is echoed by the Lord in the ‘Sermon on the Mount.’ (Mt 5:1-12). I pray Lord to grant us the Grace of humility and the grace to realize that God created every human being equal and as such whatever we have and whoever we are are all from God and therefore we should always boast in the Lord and in the Lord alone, today and every day of our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. Please if you haven’t already done so, try to go and worship the Lord with your family members, and invite the Lord home to come to have dinner with all of you. Remain blessed!!!

“And Jesus saith to them that day, when evening was come: Let us pass over to the other side. And sending away the multitude, they take Him even as He was in the ship: and there were other ships with Him. And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship so that the ship was filled. And He was in the hinder part of the ship, sleeping upon a pillow; and they awake Him, and say to Him: Master, doth it not concern Thee that we perish? And rising up, He rebuked the wind, and said to the sea: Peace, be still. And the wind ceased: and there was made a great calm. And Be said to them: Why are you fearful? have you not faith yet? And they feared exceedingly: and they said one to another: Who is this (thinkest thou) that both wind and sea obey Him?” My dearest beloved brethren, Jesus asked His disciples: “Why are you fearful? have you not faith yet?” (Mk 4:40). Jesus asked them this because He was asleep when the storm of wind came and filled their boat with water, and the disciples were afraid they would all perish. Jesus who is God was in the boat with the disciples and that was the essence of Jesus’ questions to them. Jesus is God and His power and authority over everything are never changing whether He is awake or asleep, speaking or silent, outside or inside, moving or not moving, far or near. The disciples’ problems with fear and lack of faith remain our own problems today. Disciples had faith in Jesus but they thought that He didn’t know what was happening because He was asleep. That was meant to be a big teaching moment to the disciples as it’s for us today. I pray Lord to grant us the Grace to feel His presence anywhere we are and the grace to know that as far as we believe in God and stay away from sin, God protects us every second of the day no matter where we are or what we’re doing, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen. You realize that God is everywhere and He is with you and sees you all the time. May you always be conscious of the presence of God around you and may the knowledge of His presence take away fears from you except the fear of God Himself, dear friends and lovers, and followers of Christ. There are no circumstances or situations or any burdens whatsoever that we face or find ourselves in, that our Lord Jesus cannot tackle for us. This is so because God is God and He is omnipresent and omnipotent and nothing can match the love He has for us, and His power and authority are from Heaven to Earth and have no boundaries. God always does His own part for our good. We are the ones who do not try to keep up with doing our own parts. It’s because we don’t do what God expects of us that many people expose themselves to attacks from the enemies of God including demonic attacks and attacks by Satan and his agents. You will be surprised to know (if you do the study), how many people in the world who do not remember to pray to God at all. What would our lives be like if we don’t pray? We and our lives would then be fertile grounds for Lucifer to launch assaults on God’s children. I pray that we stay attached to Jesus and have the grace to push Satan and his agents away from us so that we continue to grow in faith, belief, trust, and hope in God, today and every day of our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I . Amen. Be courageous and fearless in the Lord; for God is with you. You’re blessed; remain blessed!!!
- HARVEST OF JOY AND GOD’S LOVE(Mk 4:26-34; Douay-Rheims Bible)
“And Jesus said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the earth, And should sleep, and rise, night and day, and the seed should spring, and grow up whilst he knoweth not. For the earth of itself bringeth forth fruit, first the blade, then the ear, afterward the full corn in the ear. And when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come. And He said: To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? or to what parable shall we compare it? It is as a grain of mustard seed: which when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth: And when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches, so that the birds of the air may dwell under the shadow thereof. And with many such parables, He spoke to them the word, according as they were able to hear. And without parable He did not speak unto them; but apart, He explained all things to His disciples.” My dearest beloved brethren, our road to the kingdom of God takes a gradual process that comes in stages. Hearing and accepting the Words of God are two of the initial stages and like the seed planted in the field or garden that requires irrigation/water and fertile soil/ground to sprout, we need to continue to listen to and hear the Words of God and make them parts of lives for them to become our own ways of life. I pray for us not to allow the burning desires in us to be very close to God, to quench, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. You heard and received the Words of God and you have nursed them and made them grow strong in you. Christ’s ways are your absolute ways and the Kingdom of God is clearly for you, dear God’s beloved children. The Words of God are the seeds we plant in our hearts and souls. But to nourish our souls, we have to make sure that we provide the Words of God the fertile soils, water and manure to grow and just like we need to weed out the weeds that grew with the crops we planted in our gardens or farms, to let the crops grow well and bring out excellent harvest, we also need to weed out the bad words and seeds and things that mixed up with the good Words of God planted in our hearts and souls, so that our lives will focus mainly on following Christ’s ways of life. Some of these weeds that disturb the great Words of God in us include all the vices, bad associations, looking at bad and ungodly things/images/pictures, engaging in unholy conversations that do us no good, and so on. At the same time, we should provide the Words of God with everything that they need to transform our lives. Such things include constantly listening to the Words of God, attending Masses and going to Church daily so that our personal relationships with God will be stronger, reading the Bible daily, confessing our sins, having distaste for all evils, loving ourselves and our neighbors and of course our God, and most importantly making prayers and prayers and prayers the most important parts of our daily lives. I pray that we all receive the Holy Ghost in our lives to help us drive Satan and his evil ways and his evil agents from our lives today and every day of our lives, so that nothing will prevent us from entering the Kingdom of God in Heaven, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. Be courageous and fearless in the Lord; for God is with you. You’re blessed; remain blessed!!!
- HARVEST OF JOY AND GOD’S LOVE(Acts 22:3-16; Douay-Rheims Bible)
Paul addressed the people. “And he saith: I am a Jew, born at Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the truth of the law of the fathers, zealous for the law, as also all you are this day: Who persecuted this way unto death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women. As the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the ancients: from whom also receiving letters to the brethren, I went to Damascus, that I might bring them bound from thence to Jerusalem to be punished. And it came to pass, as I was going, and drawing nigh to Damascus at midday, that suddenly from heaven there shone round about me a great light: And falling on the ground, I heard a voice saying to me: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou Me? And I answered: Who art Thou, Lord? And He said to me: I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest. And they that were with me, saw indeed the light, but they heard not the voice of Him that spoke with me. And I said: What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me: Arise, and go to Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things that thou must do. And whereas I did not see for the brightness of that light, being led by the hand by my companions, I came to Damascus. And one Ananias, a man according to the law, having testimony of all the Jews who dwelt there, Coming to me, and standing by me, said to me: Brother Saul, look up. And I the same hour looked upon him. But he said: The God of our fathers hath preordained thee that thou shouldst know His Will, and see the Just One, and shouldst hear the voice from His mouth. For thou shalt be His witness to all men, of those things which thou hast seen and heard. And now why tarriest thou? Rise up, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, invoking His name.” My dearest beloved brethren, today’s Bible reading is about the conversion of Paul. Paul’s conversion shows how good and how forgiving our Lord Jesus is. This was Saul who because he was in authority, was persecuting Christians, putting them in chains and throwing God’s children in prison, and yet God forgave him and gave him chance to repent and be a true child of God. I pray Lord to grant us the Grace of forgiveness, and the grace to not hold and keep it in our hearts and minds whenever others hurt or offend us, but for us to forgive them, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen. Our Lord Jesus offered Himself to you and you embraced Him and has all your life been working for the Lord and bringing others close to Him, dear friends of our Lord Jesus. Our Lord Jesus Christ gives everyone opportunities to change from evil ways of life to doing good according to the WILL of God. The point is that God also gave everyone the free Will and conscience of making his/her own decisions. Therefore accepting or rejecting God’s offer to follow His ways depends on individuals. On Saul’s way to Damascus where he was heading to, to go and persecute God’s people, the Lord Jesus struck him down with a light and said to Him: “Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou Me?” (Acts 22:7). Saul listened and accepted to give up his evil ways and followed Christ’s directions and ways. We are all sinners, but how many times have we had encounters with Jesus through various different ways and at different times, be it through other people, in the Church, or through things that happened in our lives, reminding and calling us to repent and embrace Christ in truth, and yet we give deaf ears to the voice from Heaven? I pray and beg our Lord to help us avoid persecuting Christ the more and start living virtuous lives today and every day of our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. Be courageous and fearless in the Lord; for God is with you. You’re blessed; remain blessed!!!
- HARVEST OF JOY AND GOD’S LOVE(Mk 3:31-35; Douay-Rheims Bible).
“And Jesus’ mother and His brethren came; and standing without, sent unto Him, calling Him. And the multitude sat about Him; and they say to Him: Behold Thy mother and Thy brethren without seek for Thee. And answering them, He said: Who is My mother and My brethren? And looking round about on them who sat about Him, He saith: Behold My mother and My brethren. For whosoever shall do the WILL of God, he is My brother, and My sister, and mother.” My dearest beloved brethren, Jesus was in the midst of some people who neither liked nor approved of what He was doing. But then those who were around Him recognized His mother and His brethren and alerted Him that His family members were outside. Nobody should blame the people because naturally and normally we all should have strong deep attachments and bonds with our blood/biological relatives or family members. We know that apart from Jesus Himself, His mother Mary was also a holy person who knew nothing else than doing the WILL of God the Father, so it wasn’t like Jesus didn’t know that His family members waiting outside were God’s children. The way the mother of Jesus and Jesus’ brethren came to where He was and wanted to be there with Him shows family unity and peace and togetherness that existed among them. I pray Lord to grant us the Grace of being strongly desirous of peace, unity, oneness, and togetherness, starting from our various families and going out to everywhere we are linked to in society, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen. Anyone who believes, trusts, hopes, and adores Christ is a Christian, and anyone who obeys God’s commandments and does the WILL of God is with and for Christ Jesus. You’re with and for Christ Jesus and He shall never forget you, dear members of the Holy family of Christ. The essence of being a Christian is to widen our relationships – of trust, affection, commitment, loyalty, faithfulness, kindness, thoughtfulness, compassion, mercy, helpfulness, unity, peace, togetherness, encouragement, support, strength, protection, and so on. All these are the qualities that bind people together in mutual love and unity. When the people told Jesus that His mother and His brethren were outside, Jesus said to them: “For whosoever shall do the WILL of God, he is My brother, and My sister, and mother.” (Mk 3:35). Jesus was not saying that Mary His mother was no more His mother neither was He saying that His biological brethren were no more His brethren. Instead, He was telling the people who were listening to Him and happily hearing God’s Words, that they themselves are also His mothers, His brothers, and His sisters simply because they’re willing to do the WILL of God. Remember that Jesus was conceived in Mary’s womb because she accepted wholeheartedly the WILL of God. Jesus was saying that when it comes to God and things of God, there is no division and no one should be looked at as more important than others. He was telling them that in the House of God, ONLY God is at the head and the rest should in unity be obedient to God and do God’s WILL and not follow blindly the ways of the world. I pray that we understand and follow Jesus’ teachings and what He is communicating to us and work to expand our love for one another for the sake of Christ, today and every day of our lives, through the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I pray. Amen. Be courageous and fearless in the Lord; for God is with you. You’re blessed; remain blessed!!!
