I love the scripture verse , Terry, 'my grace will be sufficinet unto you' 2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. A real rock to stand on. Also my great favourite: Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. ..and for times of persecution... Romans 8:31-39 Nothing Can Separate Us from God’s Love 31 What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us? 32 Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else? 33 Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for his own? No one—for God himself has given us right standing with himself. 34 Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and he is sitting in the place of honor at God’s right hand, pleading for us. 35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? 36 (As the Scriptures say, “For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.”) 37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. 38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. I admit these last few years i have been feeling more than a little guilty thing, basking a little in God's love and the good things of life. Everyhting seems to have been working out so very,very fine. Why should this bother me. Well because Ihaverealised looking back on my life that the times I hung on the Corss were the times I grew closest to God. Also I have a great thirst for souls. So I see huge opputinites in the times ahead. I had a dream last night about Our LAd of Knock that I travelled back to the priginal apparition in the 19th century and stood with the orignal visionaries. A source of great consolation. I used to believe Vassula was false, taking my key from a Church statement. I ahve come to realise Iwas very wrong, if understandably wrong. If she says that there is going to be a Tsunami of the West Coast of the USa I would say she is probaly right on the button. I don;t know if folks realsie how blessed they are to have been spiritually alerted to what is going down (partly from sites like this) , for it will be very,very hard indeed to suddenly get hit right in the face with future events. I admit for instance to being appalled by the antics of Trump and Clinton , a sign of the times. I ahve tried over and over again to emphaisie to people that what is going to happen will change our world totally and forever. This is not a passing thing, not for a year or two. We must pray very,very much and cling very, very close to Our LAdy and the good God. What comes is totally gigantic. The Day of Justice. The Day of the Lord. Zephaniah 1:14-18 Near is the great day of the LORD, Near and coming very quickly; Listen, the day of the LORD! In it the warrior cries out bitterly. A day of wrath is that day, A day of trouble and distress, A day of destruction and desolation, A day of darkness and gloom, A day of clouds and thick darkness, A day of trumpet and battle cry Against the fortified cities And the high corner towers. I will bring distress on men So that they will walk like the blind, Because they have sinned against the LORD; And their blood will be poured out like dust And their flesh like dung. Neither their silver nor their gold Will be able to deliver them On the day of the LORD'S wrath; And all the earth will be devoured In the fire of His jealousy, For He will make a complete end, Indeed a terrifying one, Of all the inhabitants of the earth.
I wish that I had the tongues of a thousand angels that I might cry in warning. I wish that I had the Trumpet of Heaven that I might sound the alarum. Joel 2:1 1Blow a trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm on My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, For the day of the LORD is coming; Surely it is near, 2A day of darkness and gloom, A day of clouds and thick darkness. As the dawn is spread over the mountains, So there is a great and mighty people; There has never been anything like it, Nor will there be again after it To the years of many generations.… But the people slumber in their materialism and are blind and deaf on account of no longer praying. 1 Thessalonians 5:7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. For God has sent the Queen of Prophets , the Queen of Heaven to arouse us and she has been ignored and despised even by those who should ahve listened the most in the Vatican. 2 Chronicles 36:16 15The LORD, the God of their fathers, sent word to them again and again by His messengers, because He had compassion on His people and on His dwelling place; 16but they continually mocked the messengers of God, despised His words and scoffed at His prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against His people, until there was no remedy. 17Therefore He brought up against them the king of the Chaldeans who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion on young man or virgin, old man or infirm; He gave them all into his hand. ....at Knock in Ireland for instance where the apparition clearly point out the onset of the events long foretold in the Book of Revelations:
I wholeheartedly agree Padraig. Did you read the "after the warning " site? It feels like it is the sun rising over the horizon. Any minute now. I hate this feeling. Has anyone seen the show "Robot".? I saw 3 episodes on a plane. Now if you go to the latest trailer for the tv show its spot on. Me thinks they are trying to tell us what is going to happen. ..but that is what evil does....shows its victims what they are going to do to them. It's their tactic. Pray, pray, pray! https://g.co/kgs/3FdqvK
I dont think Marti the powers that be will move in until things fall apart. I got a message from a lady in the USA during the week which moved me to tears. The simple message was, 'It's all falling apart padraig, isn't it?' The reasons why it moved me to tears was simple. I watch htis ladies comings and goings on face book. She is an ordinary, holy Cahtolic wife who leads a simple family life, full of God and prayer. A simple good person. I though of her and the millions of others who are about to be swept up in the sotrm and felt so much for her and them. Also I recalled the message of Our Lady in Meduogorje which also stated , 'Things are falling apart...' http://www.medjugorje.com/medjugorj...-passing-and-everything-is-falling-apart.html Our Lady Queen of Peace of Medjugorje’s September 2, 2011 Message Given to Mirjana on the Day for Non-Believers “Dear children; with all my heart and soul full of faith and love in the Heavenly Father, I gave my Son to you and am giving Him to you anew. My Son has brought you, the people of the entire world, to know the only true God and His love. He has led you on the way of truth and made you brothers and sisters. Therefore, my children, do not wander, do not close your heart before that truth, hope and love. Everything around you is passing and everything is falling apart, only the glory of God remains. Therefore, renounce everything that distances you from the Lord. Adore Him alone, because He is the only true God. I am with you and I will remain with you. I am especially praying for the shepherds that they may be worthy representatives of my Son and may lead you with love on the way of truth. Thank you.” http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-36348904 http://edition.cnn.com/2016/05/20/asia/india-record-temperature/
How much time have we? I know St Joseph has a role to support us in what is coming. I rescued his tiny statue from our nativity Christmas box stored away in the cupboard and placed him in our living room. I'm giving away prayer cards but I need to expand my efforts. Not everyone is listening. In fact hardly any. But at least puzzled friends have my miraculous medals or St J cards with them. Need to leave more in other places. Anyone else doing something similar?
I guess this forum is sounding the Shofar. Matthew 24:31 And he will send out his angels with the mighty blast of a trumpet, and they will gather his chosen ones from all over the world--from the farthest ends of the earth and heaven
I am so surprised the hand of God has not fallen already -- One must assume there are victim souls holding the world together by the threads - - How far will God allow the world to sink before His justice roars?
Did you see today Padraig that the Holy Father is coming to Ireland??? You lucky Duck!! 2018! You have a lot to look forward to!
I heard this on the Catholic Channel (radio) , and when they announced it they said that Pope Francis, or his successor, would be visiting Ireland in 2018. I thought it was odd that they would phrase it that way.
I did a search query for "War room" to share a clip of a movie I have recently watched.. this thread came up, how fitting =] That's passion!
