Through Mary Jesus Will Come Back to The World.....St. Louis De Montfort

Greetings in Jesus and Mary...
​
Well, we are almost in May, the month of Mary; and we have just passed the feast of St. Louis de Montfort (April 28th). It is only right that we should quote some wisdom and prophesies of St. Louis de Montfort today to understand better what we are living today.  He states: "It is by Her that the souls who are to shine forth especially in sanctity have to find Our Lord. He who shall find Him shall find life, that is Jesus Christ, Who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. But no one can find Mary who does not seek Her, and no one can seek Her who does not know Her. It is necessary, then, for the greater knowledge and glory of the Most Holy Trinity, that Mary should be more than ever known."

St Louis continues: "Mary must shine forth more than ever in mercy, in might, and in grace in these later times." In mercy, he says, to bring back the strayed sinners. In might, against the enemies of God who shall rise in terrible revolt against Him. In grace, to sustain the soldiers and servants of Christ who shall battle in His service. And lastly, Mary must be terrible to the devil and to his crew, as an army raged in battle, principally in these latter times, because the devil, knowing he has but little time, and now less than ever, to destroy souls, will every day redouble his efforts and his combats. He will presently raise up cruel persecutions, and will put terrible snares before the faithful servants and true children of Mary, whom it gives him more trouble to conquer than it does to conquer others."

Let us be confident that God has given His Mother such power over the devil. De Montfort tells us, that Satan "fears Her not only more than all the angels and men, but in a sense more than God Himself. Not that the anger, the hatred and the power of God are not infinitely greater than those of the Blessed Virgin, for the perfections of Mary are limited; but Satan, being proud, suffers infinitely more from being beaten and punished by a little handmaid of God, and her humility humbles him more than the divine power."

The battle between the devil and our Blessed Mother has been going on for centuries. It is a battle for souls. The devil is trying to lure all of us into the lowest depths of hell. Mary is trying to lead us to Heaven Today, according to De Montfort, the devil is more active than ever before because he has little time left. As a consequence, the Blessed Virgin Mary is making Herself better known to us, so that we might resist the devil and enroll on Her side. The battle seems to be approaching a great climax.

The saint's words about Mary's power over the devil are consoling ones for these trying days. Satan may rage and roar at us. He may persecute us openly or subtly, but he cannot harm us so long as we stay by Mary's side. And for all those who seem to have lost their way; we can pray with confidence to Her to bring them back. We must pray with confidence that Our Good Mother loves them more than we do and She will do all in Her power to bring them back to Her Son. May we walk in this confidence!

​Our Lady, Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, pray for us!!
