OUTDOORS EXPOSURE AND
GOOD SAMARITAN OIL
My children are
suffering more frequently from respiratory diseases, which increase, being
recurrent and requiring long treatment. Children, have you not asked yourselves
why it is that you should be weaker faced with respiratory diseases?
Exposure to drastic
changes in the climate greatly contributes to your bodies’ being exposed to
respiratory complications, but at the same time the hand of man is implicit,
spreading chemicals and viruses through the air so that you fall sick more
frequently, and these sometimes become mortal for human beings. Faced with
this, you should protect yourselves in order to minimize exposure to white
trails when they cover the atmosphere. At the same time, spray the oil of the
Good Samaritan on what you have chosen to protect your nose and mouth.
Sick minds of
powerful nations are the demons that spread the disease on My children in
airplanes. Shut your homes and do not expose yourselves to the open air when
you see strange forms in the atmosphere.” Blessed Virgin Mary, 12.21.2019

Proverbs, Chapter 1, Verse 33
But whoever obeys me dwells in security, in peace, without FEAR of harm.”
We must move toward inward peace!
This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to set us free from the hands of our enemies, free to worship him without fear, holy and righteous in his sight all the days of our life.
In modern times, with all the violence that is going on in the whole
world and with America at the center of any response to terror and terrorists,
and rogue nations how should we respond?
First and foremost, do not respond to fear for the Lord is our King. We should search our hearts and seek to retain a heart of peace.
· Our response must be measured and used with no malice.
·
We must
stop evil but not with hatred.
·
We
should love the humanity of our enemies, pray for them and do good to them if
we can.
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink." (Romans 12:20)
According to the CIA world fact book many of the countries in which we
have the greatest troubles have the lowest per capita income per person in the
world. For example, per capita in the US is $57,400 a year versus $1700
in North Korea (note the US is 20th in per capita (Hong Kong is 19); it is
interesting to note the number one nation in per capita is Liechtenstein (big
money launders) at $139,100). Our enemies are hungry and used or abused
by ruff creatures of men. Imagine what could happen if we could use the
great economic power of this country and other countries of goodwill to raise
the good men in these regions up: to feed the hungry, give drink to the
thirsty: to empower men of goodwill and remove the ruff creatures of men from
power.

The
People of the "poor" - those who, humble and meek, rely solely on
their God's mysterious plans, who await the justice, not of men but of the
Messiah - are in the end the great achievement of the Holy Spirit's hidden
mission during the time of the promises that prepare for Christ's coming. It is
this quality of heart, purified and enlightened by the Spirit, which is
expressed in the Psalms. In these poor, the Spirit is making ready "a
people prepared for the Lord."

"Prayer
is the raising of one's mind and heart to God or the requesting of good things
from God." But when we pray, do we speak from the height of our pride and
will, or "out of the depths" of a humble and contrite heart? He who
humbles himself will be exalted; humility is the foundation of prayer, only
when we humbly acknowledge that "we do not know how to pray as we
ought," are we ready to receive freely the gift of prayer. "Man is a
beggar before God."

446 In the Greek translation of
the Old Testament, the ineffable Hebrew name YHWH, by which God revealed
himself to Moses, is rendered as Kyrios, "Lord". From then on,
"Lord" becomes the more usual name by which to indicate the divinity
of Israel's God. the New Testament uses this full sense of the title
"Lord" both for the Father and - what is new - for Jesus, who is
thereby recognized as God Himself.
447 Jesus ascribes this title
to himself in a veiled way when he disputes with the Pharisees about the
meaning of Psalm 110, but also in an explicit way when he addresses his
apostles. Throughout his public life, he demonstrated his divine sovereignty
by works of power over nature, illnesses, demons, death and sin.
448 Very often in the Gospels
people address Jesus as "Lord". This title testifies to the respect
and trust of those who approach him for help and healing. At the prompting
of the Holy Spirit, "Lord" expresses the recognition of the divine
mystery of Jesus. In the encounter with the risen Jesus, this title
becomes adoration: "My Lord and my God!" It thus takes on a
connotation of love and affection that remains proper to the Christian
tradition: "It is the Lord!"
449 By attributing to Jesus the
divine title "Lord", the first confessions of the Church's faith
affirm from the beginning that the power, honor and glory due to God the Father
are due also to Jesus, because "he was in the form of God", and
the Father manifested the sovereignty of Jesus by raising him from the dead and
exalting him into his glory.
450 From the beginning of
Christian history, the assertion of Christ's lordship over the world and over
history has implicitly recognized that man should not submit his personal
freedom in an absolute manner to any earthly power, but only to God the Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ: Caesar is not "the Lord". "The
Church. . . believes that the key, the centre and the purpose of the whole of
man's history is to be found in its Lord and Master."
451 Christian prayer is
characterized by the title "Lord", whether in the invitation to
prayer ("The Lord be with you"), its conclusion ("through Christ
our Lord") or the exclamation full of trust and hope: Maranatha ("Our
Lord, come!") or Maranatha ("Come, Lord!") - "Amen Come
Lord Jesus!"
IN BRIEF
452 The name
Jesus means "God saves". the child born of the Virgin Mary is called
Jesus, "for he will save his people from their sins" (Mt 1:21):
"there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be
saved" (Acts 4:12).
453 The
title "Christ" means "Anointed One" (Messiah). Jesus is the
Christ, for "God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with
power" (Acts 10:38). He was the one "who is to come" (Lk 7:19),
the object of "the hope of Israel" (Acts 28:20).
454 The
title "Son of God" signifies the unique and eternal relationship of
Jesus Christ to God his Father: he is the only Son of the Father (cf Jn 1:14,
18; 3:16, 18); he is God himself (cf Jn 1:1). To be a Christian, one must
believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God (cf Acts 8:37; 1 Jn 2:23).
455 The title "Lord" indicates divine sovereignty. To confess or invoke Jesus as Lord is to believe in his divinity. "No one can say 'Jesus is Lord' except by the Holy Spirit'" (I Cor 12:3).
