Immaculate Heart of Mary - Our Refuge During This Great Apostasy

Hello Everyone:
Our Lady is such a good Mother in giving us so much help during these stormy days. I myself have to be reminded not to look down at the turbulent waters at our feel but at the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Below is the relationship of St. Louis deMontfort advise on giving ourselves to Our Lady in the end times and the Fatima message repeating the same refuge.

On Oct 13, 1917, Our Lady of Mt. Carmel identified Herself to us as Our Lady of the Holy Rosary and reaffirmed her promise to St. Dominic:

“By means of the Holy Rosary and the Scapular, I will save the world.”
Pray the Daily Rosary wear the Brown Scapular

This is the promised Triumph of Her Immaculate Heart, a promise ratified by Heaven by the miracle of the sun which is a public miracle recognized by the Church as Signum Magna and Heaven’s seal upon Our Lady’s promise.

These tremendous events did not just occur ‘out of the blue’. In retrospect, we can see a long preparation for the time when the foes of the Church would be victorious, when both “throne and altar would be overthrown” by the Jacobins:- Robspierre, Garibaldi, Lenin and Trotsky in the revolutionary command of the Masonic sects. To the challenge of the Revolution inaugurated in 1789, Our Lady has answered on behalf of the Church. Her entrance to this battle was long prepared and anticipated by the Saints of the Church.
 
True Devotion to Mary
In the 18th century, St. Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort (1673-1716) had given to the Church, the consecration to Jesus through Mary. This is an “interior and perfect practice” to which Saint Louis specifically invites the Church in the latter times to enter through grace. The True Devotion to Mary was revealed to the Saint by the Holy Ghost that our Lord’s desire be fulfilled.

“God wishes that His holy Mother should be at present more known, more loved, more honored than she has ever been.”  This accords with the statements of the Sacred Heart messages. The peace of Christ, the King, the conversion of Russia has been entrusted to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Our Lord will only give us this victory through Our Lady, to His glory.

This desire of God pre-eminently marks the time of our Counter Revolutionary era and the Great Apostasy – a time of most critical danger for all souls. For when the ordinary means of grace which our Lord wills for His Church is being extinguished, when the power of the antichrist would be given strength over the continual sacrifice of the altar, how then do we conquer our natural tendencies to sin.

In the consecration to Jesus through Mary, St. Louis de Montfort laid the foundation stone of the devotion to the Immaculate Heart, a devotion uniquely reserved for our time and revealed at Fatima. On July 13, 1917, Our Lady of Fatima told the children: “You have seen Hell, where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish in the world, devotion to My Immaculate Heart” and “To those who will embrace this devotion to My Immaculate Heart, I promise salvation.”

As Sister Lucia explained to Father Fuentes (Dec. 26, 1957) “The holy Rosary and devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary are our two last recourses, and so this means there will be no others…With a certain trepidation, God offers us the final means of salvation, His Most Holy Mother.”
 
The Vision of the Most Holy Trinity at Tuy
Four of the Fatima prayers inspired by the Holy Ghost address the great crises of our apocalyptic times through the love of God. As Sister Lucy told Father Fuentes “Finally devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Our Most Holy Mother, consists in considering Her as the seat of mercy, of goodness and of pardon as the certain door by which we are to enter Heaven.”

“You have seen Hell where the souls of poor sinners go. In order to save them, God wishes to establish in the world, devotion to My Immaculate Heart. If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved.” Our Lady of Fatima to Jacinta and Francisco Marto and Lucia dos Santos, July 13, 1917.

At Tuy, on June 13, 1929, the matter comes more sharply into focus.
Sr. Lucia had come to Tuy for the noviate and to receive the habit of the Dorothean Sisters. Alone on that night of June 13 for a holy hour, she had prostrated herself before the tabernacle to say the prayers of the Archangel addressed to the Most Holy Trinity, begging our Lord, present in the tabernacle for the conversion of sinners through the infinite merits of the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts. When she rose up, a supernatural light from the tabernacle suddenly illumined the whole chapel. On the altar appeared a Cross of light reaching to the ceiling.

In the bright upper arms of the Cross, she saw the face of a man who bore upon his breast a luminous dove. She saw our Lord upon the Cross and below the waist, suspended in mid-air was a Chalice and Host. From His Head, crowned with thorns, drops of Blood fell into the Chalice, also from the wound in the side. These drops ran down over the Host and fell into the Chalice. Our Lady stood to the right and under the Cross. She held in Her hand Her Immaculate Heart.

“Her Heart” according to Sr. Lucia was “without a sword or crown of roses.” Like the image of the Sacred Heart revealed to St. Margaret Mary Alocoque, “Our Lady’s Heart was crowned with thorns and with flames.” Even as the infinite merits of the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts are as one in the prayer of the Archangel, they are manifested as one in Sr. Lucia’s vision at Tuy.
​
This is why Devotion to the Immaculate Heart suffices for us in the time of the Great Apostacy when the ordinary means of grace are denied to so many. This why Sr. Lucia can say in the context of Devotion to the Immaculate Heart, “There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we can not resolve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary. With the Holy Rosary, we will save ourselves. We will sanctify ourselves. We will console Our Lord and obtain the salvation of many souls.” (Dec. 26, 1957)
