Message of September 25, 2001
"Dear children!
Also today I call you to prayer, especially today
when Satan wants war and hatred. I call you anew, little children: pray
and fast that God may give you peace. Witness peace to every heart and
be carriers of peace in this world without peace. I am with you and intercede
before God for each of you. And you do not be afraid because the one who
prays is not afraid of evil and has no hatred in the heart.
Thank you for having responded to my call."
commentary:
In this message we can see how Our Lady is
concerned by the recent events of September 11, 2001.
Already in the August message she told us:
"Do not forget, little children, that your life is as passing as a flower."
Which I could not help but relate to the desperate
people falling from the Twin Towers - because any death is preferable than
to be burnt alive. They were actually falling like little flowers dancing
in the air.
The goal of the terrorists is to cause fear.
Our Lady's answer is PRAYER because if we pray we shall overcome
fear. And this is very important because fear can destroy our civilization:
it can destroy the economy and therefore destroy our way of life.
If people sell stocks and refuse to buy or travel, our world could
crumble.
From the beginning of the Apparitions Our Lady said she came for
peace because "The peace of the world is in danger." Nobody fully
understood what she meant. Then she said: "By prayer and fasting you
can prevent wars" and "By prayer and fasting you can change the
laws of nature and stop wars."
Now is time, more than ever, to live these messages.
"Pray and fast that God may give you peace." Today again
the Virgin Mary repeats one of her most important messages. Now many people
finally understand and it's not too late.
But make no mistake, there is no chance there will be peace
without prayers and fasting! The situation is now ripe for catastrophe.
People doing such atrocities in the name of God defile their own
religion. We can state with certainty that they are possessed by
evil spirits of which Jesus said: "This kind can only come out through
prayer and through fasting" (Mark 9,29).
The goal of the terrorists is to cause hatred.
PRAYER is the only way to avoid hatred, especially for the victims
and their families. Because only a power from God can heal and purify our
hearts that have experienced such terrible things. By human means only
it is, in some circumstances, beyond our capacities to overcome hatred.
Finally, the ultimate goal of the terrorists is to create the conditions
for a major war with terrible destructions.
This is why we should not fall into their trap by overreacting in
in way that would make a major war inevitable.
But we know our leaders are wise enough, but they need our prayers.
Satan, according to Our Lady, is doing what we saw on September 11
and our immediate reaction is to say that now the world has changed forever
and yes! it is a war between good and evil.
Some people think that the terrorist organizations hate us because
of our prosperity. This is only partially true, actually they hate Christianity.
Pure and simple. Satan hates us and they are under the influence of Satan.
But the war we need to fight is, more than anything, a spiritual
war.
Mary said: "A great struggle is about to unfold, a struggle between
my Son and Satan. Human souls are at stake"
And she added: "Prayer is the only way to save the human race!"
Remember, a life without prayer is not a real life.
