Thursday, June 6, 2013: (St. Norbert)
Jesus said: “My people, in the first reading from the Book of Tobit, you are seeing separate prayers from Tobiah and Sarah to protect themselves from the demon, Asmodeus. This demon had killed seven husbands to Sarah on their wedding night, and this couple prayed for protection so Tobiah would not be killed. St. Raphael, the Archangel, was sent by Me to cast out this demon, and protect this couple. They each sought a noble purpose in marriage, and not any lust in their hearts. Because their prayers were sincere, I answered their requests. This account of marriage is also a message to all newlyweds on their wedding night, to pray for a successful marriage with children. When you pray to Me for protection in this covenant of marriage, I will also answer the prayers of those who desire a happy marriage for many years.”
Prayer Group:
Jesus said: “My people, living at college in a dormitory carries some strong temptations for drinking alcoholic drinks together with other students. This is becoming more of a problem when students live on campus. Once students are away from their parents, they need to be more responsible for their actions. Those students, who have a strong prayer life, are stronger in avoiding occasions of sin. College life can help people, but some young people start bad addictions when they are unsupervised. Pray for your college students that they grow up as responsible citizens.”
Jesus said: “My people, you are seeing more volatility in your stock markets as interest rates start to rise in a better economy. Your weather also is quite variable in your cooler temperatures this spring, and in the violence of your tornadoes and tropical storms. When markets go into records of new highs, there is a possibility of a major correction. Your weather is also witnessing some unusual floods in some areas, and droughts and fires in other areas. This is as if man’s erratic behavior is being mirrored in the weather disasters.”
Jesus said: “My people, the more you investigate the IRS in their activities, the more abuses you are finding in discrimination among opposing party members. It is hard to show who was targeting the Tea Party groups and patriots in obtaining any tax-exempt status. Those, who were accused in Cincinnati, Ohio, are now pointing the blame in the Washington, D.C. direction. In the latest baseball abuses with enhancing chemicals, the Commissioner is coming down hard on twenty players. In these abuse cases, it is hard to obtain enough evidence to make a case. Your people hold your Congress people and baseball players to a higher standard, so that ethics are more important for these people in the spotlight.”
Jesus said: “After your State Department mishandled the current Benghazi incident, and your Attorney General has been questioned on various questionable activities, your people are concerned with losing their freedoms. Searching cell phone numbers for terrorists and other security issues at the airports, are raising questions if your government is too controlling. It is hard to find a compromise in protecting individual rights vs. looking for terrorists.”
Jesus said: “My people, it is hard to realize how people suffer when their kidneys are not working properly. Some people live with dialysis treatments, but this is difficult going for three hours or more almost every other day. Some people have been fortunate to have kidney transplants, but they do not always last. Gail has chosen her path to let Me take her after five years of suffering. Give support to her family, as she is with Me now in heaven. She will be praying for her family, as they helped her much in her last days.”
Jesus said: “My people, I am grateful for your prayers in your prayer group for your many prayer petitions. Praying to stop abortion in your country is needed more than ever because this killing of My babies greatly offends Me. Many of you know how serious a problem that your abortions are causing. Life is so precious, yet some of your people are discarding their children as human garbage. This irreverence for life is one of your most serious sins both individually and as a nation. Your abortions are continuing as if this is a normal behavior, but it is an abuse of My creations. America has the blood of these children on your hands, and your country will pay dearly for these killings.”
Jesus said: “My people, I am always like the father of the Prodigal Son because I await your coming to Me for forgiveness in Confession. If you have contrition for your sins, you will be forgiven. Do not postpone coming to Confession because you do not want to remain long in your sins. I have told you before that by keeping a pure soul with frequent Confession, you will always be ready for your judgment when you die. You can give good example to others, by letting them see how you come to Confession monthly. Especially encourage your children and grand-children to come to Confession often. If you do not invite people, they may be reluctant to come to Confession at all.”
