(St. Augustine)

Jesus said: “My people, today you celebrate the feast day of St. Augustine, who after his conversion, became a monk and was drawn to the ascetic life. He was a leader of the monastic life in the Western Church. He helped the people in fighting the heresies of his day. He formed a monastery, and he was attracted to a life that was simple and devoid of the attractions of the world. Many of the cloisters and monasteries of your day are also attracted to contemplative prayer of being close to Me in love of My Blessed Sacrament. I have even asked My faithful to take ten minutes to pray in silence before My Blessed Sacrament in your holy hour. Listen in your heart for what I want to speak to your soul. My faithful, who need to live in the world, can seek the simple life without so many worldly distractions. Occasional visits to My Blessed Sacrament and retreats at monasteries can give you a small taste of this ascetic life that people like St. Augustine desired. Use this quiet time to bring My peace into your life as you seek to be with Me one day in heaven.”

Prayer Group:

Jesus said: “My people, I will provide places to stay for everyone who comes to My refuges. The accommodations may not be as modern as your current homes, but they will be protected by My angels. Water will come from springs, lakes, or rivers. I will multiply these dwellings as well as the food and water so everyone will have their necessities. You have provided lists of things to bring to your refuges. Trust in Me and you will have what you need as well as angel protection from the evil ones.”

Jesus said: “My people, money and credit cards will not be of any value to you when you will need the mark of the beast to make any transactions. Some may use things of value for bartering, but I will provide for your needs. Food will be shared and multiplied with deer coming to your camps for meat. Everyone will have a special job using their skills. Be grateful for your angel protection that will make you invisible to the evil ones’ means of detection.”

Jesus said: “My people, some have asked what you will be doing at your refuges. Much of your work will be working together for survival. There will be a lot more time for prayer because you will not have your worldly distractions to take up your time. If you have a priest, you will be blessed with Mass and Adoration of My Blessed Sacrament. If you do not have a priest, then My angels will bring you Holy Communion daily on your tongue.”

Jesus said: “My people, already your hurricane forecasters are beginning to see a lot more activity in the Atlantic Ocean that could allow some storms to strike the mainland of America. Many are making preparations for the new storms while those in Florida are recovering from the latest flooding from the last tropical storm. Every year there is uncertainty if these storms will cause much damage and loss of life. If people properly evacuate and have supplies of food with them, then there should be little loss of life without starvation. It is difficult to get food and water to damaged areas, which is why you should have some food stored and ready to take on evacuating. Keeping your cars gassed up and leaving early, might help avoid traffic jams. Pray for all peoples who will be enduring these storms.”

Jesus said: “My son, your Novena prayers have allowed you to deliver this latest DVD quickly and with few obstacles. I want you to continue to promote more people to participate in Adoration of My Blessed Sacrament. The graces multiplied for My faithful adorers will help greatly along with your rosaries to counter the heavy weight of the sins of the world. Even in your prayer group, as you adore My Host, you are receiving graces for Adoration and your rosaries. Apply these to My intentions in praying for poor sinners and their conversions.”

Jesus said: “My people, I have warned you not to be misled by curiosity in following false religions as New Age, nor by the devil in following Wicca teachings. The devil exploits your curiosity and searching for change or something new. New Age teachings are nothing new but only the worship of things of the earth as idols. Do not be misled by witchcraft and powers which draw on the power from the dark side. Instead, you only should worship the One True God without other idol worship. This is the First Commandment to worship Me only. Stay close to Me in your Christian upbringing and do not search for other sources of power because I am the only One True God worthy of your worship and with more power than all of the demons combined.”

Jesus said: “My people, you are made of body and soul, but your goal should be to have your soul saved with Me because your soul lives on forever. Do not be taken up with the worldly distractions of money, fame, and possessions because all of these things are passing away and they will be of no value in gaining heaven. Always focus on loving Me and your neighbor in prayer and good deeds, and you will see your reward in everlasting life in heaven.”
