“For I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us. For the expectation of the creature waiteth for the revelation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him that made it subject, in hope: Because the creature also itself shall be delivered from the servitude of corruption, into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.”
Romans 8:18-21

11/17 TODAY NOVEMBER 17- 26, 2017 STARTS THE NOVENA TO CHRIST THE KING

Novena to Christ the King

November 17 – 26, 2017

 

Day 1 – November 17

V5 – 10.12.03 – “…the Crown of Thorns means that there is no glory and honor without thorns; that there can never be dominion over passions and acquisition of Virtues without feeling oneself being pricked deep in one’s flesh and spirit, and that True Reigning is in mastering oneself by the pricks of mortification and of sacrifice.

Moreover, these thorns signified that I AM the True and Only King, and only one who Constitutes Me King of her heart enjoys Peace and Happiness, and I Constitute her queen of My Own Kingdom. So, all those rivulets of Blood which poured from My Head were many little streams which bound the human intelligence to the Knowledge of My Sovereignty over them.”

 Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

Day 2 – November 18

V6 – 4.16.05 – “Today is the Day of the Palms in which I was Proclaimed King. All Must aspire to a kingdom, but in order to acquire the Eternal Kingdom it is Necessary for the creature to acquire the regime of herself through the dominion of her passions.  The only means is Suffering, because Suffering is Reigning; that is, through Patience, man puts himself in his place, becoming king of himself and of the Eternal Kingdom.”

 Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

Day 3 – November 19

V11 – 5.18.15 – “Just as the kings of the earth have their own courts and quarters in which they keep safe in the midst of dangers and among the fiercest enemies – since their strength is such that while the enemies destroy other places, they do not dare to look at that point for fear of being defeated – in the same Way, I too, King of Heaven, have My Quarters and My Courts on earth. These are the souls who Live in My Volition, in whom I Live; and the Court of Heaven crowds round them.”

Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

Day 4 – November 20

V13 – 9.2.21 –You Must Know that I Acted with you, Luisa, as a King who begins to Love a friend, who is very dissimilar from Him in status; but His Love is so Great, that He has decided to make him similar to Himself. Now, this King cannot do everything at once and render His friend like Himself; rather, He does it little by little. First He prepares a Royal Palace for him, similar to His own; then He sends the Adornments to decorate the Royal Palace. He forms a little Army for him; then He gives him half of His Kingdom, so as to be able to say: ‘What you possess, I possess. King am I – king are you’. However, each time the King would give him His Gifts, He would look at his faithfulness; and giving the Gift would be for Him an occasion for New Contentment, Greater Glory and Honor for Himself, and a New Feast.”

Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

Day 5 – November 21

V13 – 11.19.21 – “…This is why I Love so much one who Lives in My Will: I Recognize My Portrait in her, My Noble Features; I feel My Own Breath, My Voice; and if I did not Love her I would defraud Myself. I would be like a father without offspring, without the noble cortege of his court, and without the crown of his children. And if I did not have the offspring, the court and the crown, how could I call Myself a King? My Kingdom is formed by those who Live in My Will, and from this Kingdom, I choose the Mother, the Queen, the children, the ministers, the army, the people. I AM everything for them, and they are all for Me.”

Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

Day 6 – November 22

V15 – 7.25.23 – “…wanting to scrutinize Me also, Pilate asked Me:  “Are You king? And where is your kingdom?” I wanted to give another sublime lesson by saying:  “I AM King”.  And I wanted to say:  “But do you know what My Kingdom is?  My Kingdom is My Pains, My Blood, My Virtues.  This is the True Kingdom which I Possess, not outside of Me, but Within Me.  What one possesses on the outside is not a true kingdom, nor a safe dominion, because that which is not inside of man can be taken away, usurped, and he will be forced to leave it.  But that which he has inside, no one will be able to take away from him – its dominion will be Eternal within him.  The Characteristics of My Kingdom are My Wounds, the Thorns, the Cross.  I do not act like the other kings who make their peoples live outside of them, unsafe, and eventually, even starving.  Not Me – I Call My peoples to dwell inside the Rooms of My Wounds, fortified and sheltered by My Pains, their thirst quenched by My Blood, their hunger satisfied by My Flesh.  This alone is True Reigning; all other reigns are reigns of slavery, of dangers and of death, while in My Reign there is True life.”

“This is the Kingdom of Peace, to which all My children should aspire.”

Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

Day 7 – November 23

V13 – 12.3.21 – “…Since this thing is Great – Establishing My Kingdom in the soul also on earth – I Acted like a king who has to take possession of a kingdom. He does not go there first; rather, first he has his royal palace prepared; then he sends his soldiers to prepare the Kingdom and to dispose the peoples to his subjection; then follow the guards of honor and the ministers – and the last one is the King. This is decorous for a King. So I did: I had My Royal Palace prepared, which is the Church; the soldiers have been the Saints, in order to make Me known to the peoples; then came the Saints who sowed miracles, as My most intimate ministers; and now I Myself Come to Reign as the King. Therefore, I had to choose a soul, Luisa, in whom to Establish My first Dwelling, and in whom to found this Kingdom of My Will. So, let Me Reign, and give Me full Freedom.”

 Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

DAY 8 – November 24

V36 – 5.10.38 – “…I Burn of Love. I feel like Fainting, I AM Delirious for Desire of Love.  And to reach this end, do you know what I do?  I put My Love in the heart of the creature, I let it flow in her mind, words, works and steps; I turn all this Love that Flows everywhere into coins of Divine Love, and to let it circulate as Our Currency We impress on them My Image and the Writing: ‘Jesus, King of the Kingdom of the Divine Will.’

Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

DAY 9 – November 25

V36 – 5.6.38 – “I would never have Come down from Heaven without the Court of My People; without a Reign in which I could Dominate with My Laws of Love. All the centuries are just like a point for us, in which everything is Ours, in Action.  Therefore, when I Came down from Heaven as Dominator and King of My children, I felt courted and Loved—as only We can do—and My Love was such that My children were all conceived together with Me.  I just couldn’t be without them; I couldn’t have tolerated not finding My Loving children.  So they grew with Me in the Womb of My Queen Mother; they were born together with Me, cried with Me, did everything I did.  They walked, worked, prayed and suffered together with Me, and I can say that they were with me even on My Cross, to die and Rise Again to New Life for human generations.

“Therefore, the Kingdom of Our Will is already Established. We know its numbers, we know them all by name.  We already feel them palpitating in Ardent Love.

 Prayer:  My Sweet Jesus,…You are waiting for them (creatures) to call You into their midst, to receive You as Triumphant King, and to make You Reign on earth as in Heaven.  Linked with Luisa we pray, “Let Your Kingdom Come.  O please, let It be Known, Loved and Possessed by the human generations.”

FEAST OF CHRIST THE KING

NOVEMBER 26, 2017

V25 – 10.28.28 – After this, I was thinking about today’s feast—that is, the Feast of Christ the King; and my Sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter, the Church does nothing but intuitively grasp what She Must Know on My Divine Will and how Its Kingdom Must Come.  Therefore, this Feast is the Prelude of the Kingdom of My Divine Fiat.  Indeed, the Church is doing nothing other than Honoring My Humanity with those Titles that, by Right, are due to It; and when She has given Me All the Honors that Befit Me, She will move on to Honor and to Institute the Feast to the Kingdom of My Divine Will, by which My Humanity was Animated.

“The Church proceeds step by step, and now She Institutes the Feast to My Heart, now She Consecrates the century, in All Solemnity, to Christ the Redeemer, and now She moves on, with greater Solemnity, to Institute the Feast to Christ the King. Christ the King means that He Must have His Kingdom, He Must have peoples worthy of such a King.  And who will ever be able to form for Me this Kingdom if not My Will?  Then, yes, will I be able to say:  ‘I have My people—My Fiat has Formed it for Me.’

“Oh! if the leaders of the Church knew what I have Manifested to you, Luisa, about My Divine Will, What I Want to do, Its Great Prodigies, My Yearnings, My Sorrowful Heartbeats, My Anguishing Sighs, for I Want My Will to Reign, to make Everyone Happy, to Restore the human family—they would feel that in this Feast of Christ the King is nothing other than the Secret Echo of My Heart that, Echoing in them, without their knowing it, has them Institute for Me the Feast of Christ the King in order to call their attention and reflection: Christ the King….  And His True People—where are they?

“And they would say: ‘Let us hasten to make His Divine Will Known; let us let It Reign, that we may give a People to Christ the King, whom we have called so.  Otherwise, we have honored Him with words, but not with facts.’”

 ‘Fiat,’-‘We belong to the Great King of the Supreme Fiat.’ – V29 – 10.26.31

 Dear Jesus, Great King of the Supreme Fiat, the Church has Instituted the Great Solemnity of the Feast of Christ the King. And since Christ the King means that You Must have Your Kingdom and Peoples worthy of Such a King, we pray You in the Name of All human generations for Your Kingdom to Come, Your Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.  Come as our King, Fulfill Your Ardent Yearnings to Make Everyone Happy and to Restore the Human Family.

One with our little mama Luisa, we pray you in the Name of All souls past, present and future to Grant us the Grace to hasten to make Your Divine Will Known; let us let It Reign, that we may give a People to Christ the King, Whom we have called So.

FIAT!

11/14 UNIVERSAL EFFECTS PRODUCED BY THE ACTS DONE IN THE DIVINE WILL

From the writings of the Servant of God,

Luisa Piccarreta

VOLUNE 14

March 10, 1922

Universal effects produced by the acts done in the Divine Will. One who lives in the Divine Will is queen of all.

I was doing the Hours of the Passion and, according to my usual way, I was pouring myself into the Holy Will of God, offering them for the good of all; but my will, as though wanting to appropriate them, very often would say: ‘My Jesus, in a special way for help, relief and liberation of this soul…’ And my sweet Jesus, reprimanding me, told me: “My daughter, everything that one does in my Will is like Sun that diffuses to all; and as one prays in my Will, offering my Blood, my pains, my wounds, these convert into as many rays of light which diffuse to all. They descend rapidly into the deepest prison of Purgatory and turn their pains and darkness into light. Therefore, it can be the same for everyone; and if there may be a difference, it can never be on the part of the one who gives, but of those who receive, according to the dispositions of each one. It happens as to the Sun, which gives light to all equally; it hits and warms one point of the earth just as any other. But who profits from this? Those who work. Which land produces fruit? That in which seeds have been sowed. Any other land, in spite of the light of the Sun, remains infertile. Therefore, distinctions do not exist in my Will; by Itself, It runs, It diffuses, and wants to give Itself to all – whoever wants, can take of It.”

I remained afflicted on hearing this, and Jesus added: “Ah! You would like to act like the Sun, if It wanted to concentrate Its light and Its heat in one point more strongly, to be able to warm it and illuminate it so much as to convert that point into the Sun itself; while it continues its regular course over all other things.” And I: ‘Yes, yes, it’s exactly this – it is the weight of gratitude that pushes me to this.’ Jesus smiled in hearing me, and He continued: “If this is the case, then go ahead and do it. But you must know that since my Will dominates everything, is everywhere, sustains everyone, is known in Heaven, on earth and even by demons, there is no one who can oppose It. In the same way, the soul who does my Will must dominate everything, be everywhere, sustain everything, and I want her to be known by all.”

And I: ‘My Love, I am known by no one. And He: “How is it – you are known by no one?! All angels and saints know you – one by one – and they anxiously await your operating in my Will, like a divine note, and the most harmonious one, which flows over everything they have done in life, to give them greater splendor and contentment. All purging souls know you, as they feel over themselves the continuous refreshment that the working in my Will brings. The demons know you from the power of my Will which they feel in you. And if the earth does not know you for now, it will know you later on.

It happens to one who does my Will, and I act with her, just as I did with my Celestial Mama: I constituted Her Queen of all, and I commanded all to recognize Her and honor Her as their Queen; and I commanded Her to crush with Her foot the head of the infernal dragon. So I do with those who live in my Will: everything is under their dominion, and there is no good which does not come from them.”
