The Age of Mary

What will be the final outcome? If victory is assured, what will it be like? What will be the cost?  Will it be complete or limited to the elect? Many questions and the Woman holds all the answers, placed in her heart by her Son, Truth Himself, so all can easily access them. This is the mystery which the Woman is trying to reveal but so many push her aside as if hers is an insignificant voice.

Only the Father knows the times and the seasons. He reveals these to chosen ones so they can be his messengers of hope.  Such has been the Woman’s task which she fulfills in every aspect, by offering her words, her presence, her comings and her advice. Nothing has limited her zeal, yet many have blocked her way, diverting what should have been a mighty ocean which would change the course of history and making it into a tiny stream from which just a few drink.

Everything moves on. Events do not wait. Forces are released. No one can stop the constant flow of human life, which is a mighty river pulling all in its path.

The Woman, foreseeing the future, comes to save.  She knows the river’s path, its destroying power and how to rescue each person.  Those who gather with her, will know what to do. Others will have no such lights.

The structures tumble. The walls collapse. All are surprised. But those who know the Woman have their own light. They have listened to her words. They know she is near, a constant protecting force. They draw in their children and speak words of hope.

They will endure the same trials, be subject to the same difficulties, but they will choose a quite different path. The one revealed by the Woman to all who listen.

The Hour of the Woman

The following tries to explain the great mystery of the Hour of the Woman.

Biblical Background of Title

1.         Woman (in our sense) is used 4 important times.

            A.         “I will put an enmity between you and the Woman, between her seed and your seed.” (Gen 3:15)

            B.         “Woman, what is that to me and you My hour has not yet come.” (Jn2:4)

            C.         “Woman, behold your son.  Behold your mother.” (Jn 19:26)

            D.         “A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet and on her head a crown of twelve stars.” (Rev12:1)

2.         The places in the bible are important.  The Woman is in the first (A) and the last (D) book of the bible. Also, the Woman is at the beginning (B) and the end (C) of Jesus’ public life.

3.         In Genesis and Revelation, the Woman means the Church but, since Mary is the Mother of the Church, the title “Woman” belongs to her in a special way.

4.         In John’s gospel, “Woman” means Mary.  This is what Jesus calls His mother.

Revealing the Mystery

1.         Concerning Jesus, Paul claims, “God has given us the wisdom to understand fully the mystery, the plan He was pleased to decree in Christ, to be carried out in the fullness of time.” (Eph 1:9-10)

2.         What is this “mystery”?  “Through him, we both (Jews and Gentiles) have access in one Spirit to the Father. (Eph2:18)

3.         Paul explains, “The mystery of Christ unknown to men in former ages but now revealed.” (Eph3:4-5)

4.         What is this plan?  “The Gentiles are now co-heirs with the Jews.” (Eph 3:6)

Why Important?

By knowing God’s plan, newly revealed, the Church knew what to do to evangelize.  The apostles started to preach to Gentiles who quickly outnumbered Jews.

The Age of Mary (The Hour of the Woman)

1.         St. Louis de Montfort (a priest from 1700 to 1717) prophesied an “Age of Mary” in his manuscript found in 1842.  Before that, Our Lady appeared to St. Catherine Laboure (1833) and revealed her miraculous medal, the beginning of the Age of Mary.

2.         Since then, the Church has experienced numerous Marian apparitions, those approved at Fatima, somewhat accepted at Medjugorje and not fully investigated or accepted at Garabandal.

3.         The big question still remains. Is this the Hour of the Woman? What does that mean? And most important, how should this change the Church’s evangelizing?

Human wisdom has chosen a road of self-fulfillment which leads only to divisions, unleashing all the demonic forces within each person and buried in each culture.

Now, all the acts of selfishness come together, multiplying each other, responding with anger to anger, hatred to hatred and revenge to revenge.

Where are the self-sacrificing persons ready to shed their blood so nations will destroy their weapons and people will set aside their hatred? The Woman will raise them up and they shall save the world by the word of their testimony and the shedding of their blood.  This is the Cana mystery.

Only when the walls begin to crumble will people see the foolishness of modern man who has removed faith from the marketplace and placed it on the margin, silencing the true voices and refusing to hear.  The Church herself must carry its own guilt, having built its structures according to human wisdom, as if faith was needed only in desperate times and not amid prosperity. Divine Judgment comes against the whole world, not to destroy, but to reveal.

The Woman speaks in vain, words that seem childish and unimportant to a world used to powerful and clever words. The world does not see that corroded hearts and blind eyes. Who can awaken the world to the Father’s plan or turn the great nations to a different path? Only the Woman can point out another way, the Father’s plan, the Father’s road to peace.  Heaven would bring this about if only earth would listen. That is why she speaks.

No one listens to the cries coming from the Woman’s heart.  The time grows very short.  The needed preparations not made.  Her children totally unaware, caught up in frivolous desires, scattered and confused.

Who will turn their hearts and minds to the conquest or alert them to the coming battles? A voice is kept silent for now for it would not be heard above the clamor. However, a time will come when many false voices will be silenced with not a word to say.  Other voices will be discredited in their half-hearted solutions.  Only then can the Woman raise up the authentic voice that will instruct the nations and bring all to the feet of the Woman.

An unknown future filled with dangers and overshadowed with darkness needs the light hidden by the Father in the Woman’s heart, abundant light to guide all those who seek Him.

What is wrong? Why does this light not go forth? Because many do not know.  They see neither the coming darkness nor the Father’s great gift.  They will be caught unaware unless the Woman’s word goes forth in power.

Who can understand the mysteries that unfold every day in human history? So many streams flow in different directions. They intersect and then go on their own way, a pattern understood only by the Heavenly Father.

Some streams follow His will but other streams follow in their own directions.  Some streams violently oppose His plans and threaten to destroy all the others. These are evil forces, chaotic and filled with death.

The Father must deal quickly with these streams, subduing them while trying to save those entrapped by them.  This is the purpose of His delay and the wisdom of His thoughts.

The Father will pour forth the fire of purification and the waters of divine mercy. In this way, He will perfectly manifest both His justice and His mercy. The fires must fall on all, and upon every culture. The waters will be available to all who seek them in the Woman’s heart. All must know these mysteries so they will not despair in the moments of divine purifying.

The heavenly Father treasures all that He has created, especially the human persons whom He has brought forth.  He always plans for their benefit and provides for their well-being.  However, the human will rejects His plans and diverts history for its selfish goals.

People do not understand or accept Jesus’ words which reveal His Father’s thoughts nor do they accept the Way of Truth which Jesus provided. Now, all come to a crossroad, a great moment of divine truth, when the sins of man must be purged so the original freedom can be restored.  To help humanity, the Father provides the Woman.

What mysteries still lay hidden in the Father’s heart.  All to bring about the Kingdom of His Son and the glory of the elect.  Soon, these mysteries will be seen and experienced by all, but not understood.  Only to some have been revealed the mysteries of the Kingdom.  To others, all remains hidden due to the hardness of their hearts.

The Father gathers all into His arena, where good and evil will lock in mortal combat. No other way exists for Him to save and purify mankind. He will use Satan as His instrument. Satan, devoid of free will, totally dedicated to evil, cannot refuse the Role chosen for him by the Father’s wisdom. Many will not see or be able to grasp.

The Father’s great secret, withheld until the last moment, is the presence of the Woman, and of the one she has chosen and of the army of faithful souls whom she has prepared by her apparitions. Small though be their numbers, they will be effective instruments in her hands.

Who will prepare the Church for coming deluge? Many can be saved by knowing what is happening and what to do. This light must spread to the whole world, so everyone can be saved. So few envision the coming darkness and the need for the Woman’s light. The voices already raised up are feeble and hardly heard above the din of daily life.

To pour out His love upon the earth, the Father created the heart of Jesus, a fit container of His fire.  But where would Jesus, who had come to cast fire on the earth, be able to pour out that love?  The Spirit had already prepared a heart worthy to receive and, from the first moment of His conception, Jesus continually poured His love into the heart of Mary. She perfectly received, treasured and preserved it for herself, the Church and all her children.  Now, her heart overflows with that divine love but she must find hearts ready to receive. These are the secrets of the Age of Mary.

In this Cana hour, the Woman is requesting from the heavenly Father that He look upon the plight of humanity.  She does not dictate to the Father what He is to do.  She merely places before His eyes the needs of her children.  Then, she tells her children “Do whatever He asks of you.”  The Father is ready to act, but unlike the waiters, many children do not obey the Woman.  That will change when she raises up her priest son who will remind the Church to “Do whatever the Woman tells you.”

What is happening? A casting out of darkness.  Little victories which bring light.  The Woman accomplishing all that is possible, taking advantage of every heart that opens to her in faith.

With the Woman, all is never lost. What can be saved will be saved. No need to be swept away in the deluge when she provides an ark.

The Father’s gifts are always wrapped in the mystery of the present moment.  Only faith sees the gift and removes the covering so God’s power can bless the world.

The Father has sent the Woman, clothed with the Sun, His gift for this moment of history.  She comes.  She is present.  She offers her own heart as the saving Ark.  Yet many do not enter, endangering their eternal salvation. They are unprepared for the flood waters which so soon must be released.

That moment will soon arrive when the purifying action of the Father will pour out upon the whole world.  It will begin in one region but all of earth will eventually be caught up in its power, each part experiencing this fire differently.

This purifying action will happen over many years, according to the Father’s wisdom.  The Woman, if she is invoked with faith, will save her children, giving them faith to persevere, hope so they do not despair, and wisdom so they know what to do.

The fullness of the Father’s mystery will soon be revealed when the Woman enters fully onto the world scene by her signs and wonders.  Still, many will not believe because no one has told them and the great mystery is still covered over.  This mystery must be revealed, explained and understood so the Father’s plan for the Woman will have its full power in rescuing the world from the satanic onslaught which has already begun.

The hour is so near.  No one understands.  No one prepares.  As in the days of Noah, the daily cares capture the heart.

Yet, the Woman offers the ark of her own Immaculate Heart.  No need to build a new ark because the Spirit has constructed the perfect Ark, far greater than Noah’s, ready to resist the greatest floods in human history.

All must be told the good news.  The Woman’s heart is open to all, ready to save all who go in. All must believe and enter. 

Man has rebelled and broken the bonds of life which united him with God Who alone controls the breath of life.  All else is death.

To save the world, the Father sent His Son who proclaimed, “I am the Life” but now, the world rejects Jesus.  So, the Father empowers the Woman to evangelize and to call the world back to the fountain of living water, her Son, Jesus.

Quickly the structures will fall and human wisdom will collapse.  What will remain? Only what the Woman has built. Her fortresses will stand firm, planted throughout the world and in every society.  Even those parts of Church life not built upon her words will perish. Many will ask, “Why did we not hear her voice?” Yet, there must be no time wasted on regrets because the woman will gather all her children. Her task would have been easier if all had listened from the beginning.

The world thinks it walks in light when really, it is walking in darkness, entering into valleys of doom, captured by the Evil One who will remain hidden until it is too late.

The Woman invites the Church to her true path but few hear her voice.  Whom can she send?  When and how will he come upon the scene? How will his ministry be accepted? All the answers lie in the heart of the Woman who has chosen him, prepares him and waits for the right moment to call him forth.  Meanwhile the ordinary lights must suffice.

Because evil forces are uniting, great divisions are appearing in society.  Also, the good come together, but not with the intensity or the strength of evil.  As a result, darkness covers society which cannot resist the united powers of evil.  So, it seems that evil is everywhere.  Because evil is more united, its powers are more pervasive and its victories more pronounced.

When will the good unite?  When will the Woman have her army which is so important? No voice is present to call the good together or to give them a true plan of action.

Mankind rejects the Father, banishing Him from His own creation and losing the blessings of His presence.  So, the Father has sent His Son, but the world banishes Him. Now, the Father sends the Woman, His final attempt to open men’s hearts so He can come and dwell among them.

This is truly the final hour of Cana – the great mystery which unfolds but must be explained and preached. Otherwise, mankind will still banish the Father from His own creation.

Amid so many strange voices, lies and errors, mankind cannot hear the Father’s voice saying, “This is my Beloved Son.”  Therefore, Jesus is put aside, neglected, and even ridiculed.

So, the Woman must raise her voice and also say “This is my beloved son.”  She must cry out, at the top of her voice and from the highest mountain, “Listen to Him”.  Slowly her voice will grow more powerful, offering those people their only chance to be saved amid the coming darkness.

The heavenly Father will not hold back His blessings but, also He will not change His plan.  He has established this Age of Mary, in which all the graces of Jesus flow through her hands. Now is the time to revealing this mystery because these graces are becoming more powerful and more abundant.  The world, but especially the Church, must know this mystery.  Otherwise, the Church will not have sufficient faith in what the Father is ready to do.

A fire burns in the Woman’s heart, placed there by the Holy Spirit of the Father, first bringing forth the Word Made Flesh and now, bringing forth every child of the Father.  Mary’s heart is sealed so that Satan, darkness or evil cannot enter.  Only her children have access but many cannot find this door because the mystery is veiled.

So, she waits, hoping that soon someone will remove this veil so the whole world can enter her heart.

How is the Father trying to save His children? Did He not reveal His plans to His prophets and did they not speak in His name?

Now, He has sent the Woman, the authoritative voice whose words are clear.  For such a long time, she has been speaking to those she has chosen.  A moment will come when the words cease and the events begin.  Many will ask, “Why did we not listen to the Woman?”

The walls are crumbling more quickly than anyone imagined. Soon, few defenses will remain.  The Church will be despoiled and her riches carried away.  Like the widow. Jerusalem mourning her children.

Yet, within the Church, secret life will remain, placed there by Jesus, a life which Satan can never destroy.  Suddenly, for all to witness, the Woman will bring forth her priest son who will gather the millions of seeds of life which the Woman has secretly planted.  These will blossom, many made fruitful by the shedding of their blood, fulfilling the prophecy of the Woman bringing forth her child. (Rev C 12:4-5).  This is the Cana Hour.

The Woman knows the path to life and wants to reveal that way to the whole world.  She will use every possible means, but she needs human instruments to whom she will entrust them with her words.  If they carry her words and enlighten the Church, then all make their own decision – to listen to her words or to reject them.

Evil gathers its forces more quickly, claims new victims with each victory and destroys the fortresses of protection built by previous generations.

Yet, the Woman cannot proceed on to the battlefield because her children are not aware of the need to unite and fight.

So great is the dilemma!  For the Woman to go forth would be in vain, yet for her to wait is to cede these victories to the evil One.  Still, it is better to wait, trusting in the ultimate victory after many losses.

The days of mercy are wasted.  The times to return to the Father are squandered because no one hears the voice of the Woman, who knows the times and tries to share their urgency.  Many believe that human life will continue as it always has, unaware that one age is closing and another beginning.  All must become faithful servants watching for the Woman’s Coming.

The hour of the world’s salvation and purification cannot be set aside.  So much depends upon man’s accepting the Woman’s help.  Up to now, her words have been set aside, leading to wars that should never have happened and deaths that should never have taken place.

Satan holds Nations in his hands and only the Woman can steal them back, a role given to her by the Father.  All will become clear in the time ahead but, for now, the Evil One marches forth and finds no other army to oppose him.  America is his goal, a diamond for his crown.

Evil has spread to the very roots of nations. What can the Father do? Is he willing to uproot whole nations?  Destroy and wipe out their very memory? Has He no other solution?  Can He not conceive another way to refashion the nations?

These are mysteries, hidden in the Woman’s heart which she will bring forth soon.

When floods come, it is too late to save belongings.  There is only time to flee. Such will be the many difficulties faced by the world.   All that is treasured will perish.  All that is built up will be torn down.

The floods will be economic and social. Those who put faith in human structures will despair. Even the little ones will be caught up in the destruction, but they will believe in the Woman.  Her actions will keep them safe even while the Father purifies the Earth.

The Woman can save her little ones because they know her voice and they obey her words. Others, however, are deprived of her light because her words have not been proclaimed from the housetops. All will change. After the darkness comes, many will want her light. Then, all that she has prepared for the Church will begin.

The word must go forth, especially to the young and to those devoted to the Woman. The time is very short. Your efforts must increase. Pray and work while it is still light. The Woman will multiply your efforts and make them fruitful. If one person does not respond, then go to another. If you find willing hearts, stay there until the full seed is planted and secure. Only then, can you move on. Remember – to save one soul is to save your own.

How cleverly has the enemy gathered his troops. They march confidently to victory seeing that the Woman’s efforts have brought forth little fruit. Her army is small, disorganized and has no leader. Her children do not realize what is happening. When the events begin, they will not see or know how to respond, caught unawares and suffering losses. Defeat will seem inevitable (satan’s strategy) and despair will fill their hearts.

In this darkness, they will cry out for light. In this moment of desperation, the Church’s heart will open and the Woman will take her place.

The Heavenly Father uses all the world events to fashion the Kingdom of His Divine Son and to exalt Him as Lord.  It cannot be destroyed or turned away.  This powerful Kingdom will come in fullness at the appointed hour.

The Father will bring forth the Woman so this new birth of His Kingdom will happen as quickly and as easily as possible.  This is the mystery of the Age of Mary.

The Woman has her angels, the ministering spirits who serve their Queen.  She also contends with the evil spirits who have declared war upon her and all her children.

These evil spirits have no hope.  Even the Woman’s love cannot reconcile them.  She can only protect her children from these spirits who are free to ravage the earth until the final victory.

This is man’s plight and why only the Hour of the Woman will gain the needed victory.  Until then, the battle continues. Blessed are they who know the secrets of the Age of Mary.

All the events will serve the Father’s purpose, even those that deviate from His divine will.  This is the great mystery.  Even when man sins, the Father can still fulfill His eternal plan.

Now, all the future events will lead to a special moment in history when the Hour of the Woman comes to a fullness.  All decisions will be assumed into that coming hour.

The future explosions will come suddenly and destroy everything in their path.  Only the Woman’s children will be prepared because they have her teachings and follow her wishes.  This gift is for everyone, but many see no need to believe.  The explosions will find them unprepared.

The events will begin according to the secret wisdom of the Father who sees all He must bring forth.  In everything, He will have His human instruments, those who understand His plans and help others to know what is happening so they can respond.

All of this divine intervention will take place over a period of time, a very important period called the Hour of the Woman. Those who choose her as their heavenly Mother will enjoy both a wisdom to understand and a hope not to despair.

A crashing moment comes after times of neglect and abuse.  However, that moment sometimes comes from an action taken by an enemy, when it is too late to respond.  Destruction takes place and people lose what could have been saved and rescued.  The Woman’s great sorrow is to foresee so many future crashing moments because no one listens to her.

The whole world faces a curtain waiting to open, and is unable to see what lies behind this curtain. When the curtain parts, the world will see itself on the edge of an abyss, facing the possibility of a total collapse of world structures.  At this time the evil present in Russia will emerge and, what was considered finished, namely atheistic Communism, will rise up in all of its strength, no longer isolated but a participant in the world market.

Who will gather the children, calm their fears and explain what is happening?  Who will show them the correct path to walk? The Woman has this task and her children must learn her voice, become acquainted with her ways and, above all, trust her completely.  Her embrace comes slowly and must be learned daily.
