"Sweet Children, these days you will hear a great deal about the microchip from various persons and governments. Be alert to this program. It is not for you. Identification numbers such as your social security numbers is a different matter. Whole countries have these for their people. What you should avoid at all costs is the placement of a microchip on your person.

Now there are some places where such a chip has been used to recover those who have been captured for ransom. That is yet another matter.

The microchip in the hand is the sign of the evil one and should be avoided at all costs. Do not be confused who tells you about it. It is to be avoided. It will not be popular until later but be forewarned that those who promote it are doing so at the instigation of Maitreya's forces. - Jesus"

"My Dear Children, I am in great earnest to explore with you the need for you to be cautious with your funds. This is not yet the time to take all from the bank. Be careful with your expenditures and bill paying.

Perhaps you have discovered this on your own. Perhaps the situation in the stock market and with banks in general have made you alert and wary. Yes, it is the time to be wary and prudent.

Keep your mind alert to the availability of your funds. Have a check every once in awhile. Just remain alert.

I do hope by now you have a small cache of funds put aside for emergencies for short periods. This would be a wise resource to have available. But also I am not going to tell you how much. You decide based upon availability and circumstance.

My Children, We alert you in prudence to possible threats and your needs. This is one We have spoken of previously. I remind you of it today again.

That this is such a time should be obvious. - Mary"

July 1, 2002

"Dear Children of the World. I am Joseph and have been given a message from the Eternal Father to share with you. He is greatly concerned by your lack of effort to prepare yourselves for the days events and times ahead and has asked me to again convey to you the great need to work harder at preparing.

Do you have your extra water and food and funds ready? Have you measured your window coverings and prepared them? Do you have blessed candles ready to use? Have you made a list of valuables? Do you know where these are? Prepare My Children, now. - Joseph"

July 1, 2002

"Now sweet Children, these days appear to have no movement, nothing extraordinary, yet I assure you many special events are taking place which will influence your lives tremendously. These special events include meetings, trips, deaths as well as preparation. There is a time for everything and everything in its time, My Children. Just keep up with your news. All will be made known in time. - Jesus"

July 1, 2002

"Dear Children, I began My first message with eagerness to tell you, remind you, of your need to be prepared. Now I wish to tell you why. It has become clearer each day that these circumstances and events will enter your lives most forcefully in a few months. We have forewarned you of these possibilities. Today I am re-confirming that such events will occur now. This will create certain problems for you to obtain funds you need until it passes.

I say until these events pass but there shall be other events making a small cache of funds available to you very helpful. You have not heard the ends of the trials over funds, nor the end of dollar woes. This in fact is but the beginning.

As the stock market bounces up and down, the value of the dollar and legal tender will also jump up and down. Banks may have difficulties also. It is the times you live in, My Children.

Being prepared involves considering many aspects of life. Know you must be ready for many events.

We do not say this to frighten you but so you are ready on all fronts to withstand the difficulties of those days. This is just another one for you to consider.

It is time, My Children, to look again at my briefing regarding paper funds such as stocks and I.R.A.'s and other similar ways to earn money. I had forewarned you that there would be problems. You see them daily now.

Be alert, listen and respond. There is much to come upon you. - Mary"

July 1, 2002

"My Dear Children, We do not wish you to be so excited over the possibilities of events later that you are not ready. Now is the time to prepare for all events while you have some leisure to do so and can made rational and wise choices. I would not like to see you buying food later when prices are so high due to the weather and lack of goods for you know they will increase when others try to store goods in times of crises. It is best to try to do this now.

Consider the rush in stores when crises come upon you. Consider that stores may run out of food. Consider that those days will be filled with panic buying. Try to obtain some extra supplies now. Do not wait.

We love you, My Children, and ask you to heed Our call to be prepared. If others do not believe and prepare, so be it. They will be caught up in the fury of grocery lines and high prices. But you can be ready.

We have tried to be prudent in telling you of these needs for you to prepare. We have tried to help you. Please do yourselves a favor and follow Our instructions. - Joseph"

"Dear Children of My Sacred Heart these messages come to you monthly to assist you. Their printing and distribution has been delayed due to financial woes. As funds are received, the messages go out. Enough said. - Jesus"

Prophetic Messages by Jesus Christ

Given to His Secretary, Dr. M.J. Even

"My Sweet Children, I wish to give you a lesson on trust. It is so greatly needed and yet many people view it from their view of how they think God will work to protect them and keep them. Because this view is in error, I wish to give you counsel and help you to understand what trust means.

First of all, trust is another side of Hope which is one of the theological virtues you receive in Baptism. It is an aspect of Hope because you see that God considers you one of His Own and will hopefully provide for you. At issue is the concept of "provide". Does that mean to provide you money? No. Does it mean that God will see that you have food and water as needed? No, it does not. Does it mean that God will give you clothes or a home to live in? No, it does not. Does it mean no matter what you do God will make it right or okay? No, it does not. Does it mean that you can sit back and do nothing and God will fill all your life's needs? No. Does it mean that God will send a Warrior Angel to fight your battles? No. Does it mean that you do not need worry or work for anything as God will provide? The answer is no.

Those who tend to believe these things are many. They have an incorrect view of God and the concepts of Hope and Trust. Though God occasionally will allow certain things to be abated, in His Mercy, it is not a sign you carry no responsibility. You have a personal ongoing life-long responsibility to work, to provide for yourselves and protect yourselves. It is you, not God, who must do these things. That is what being a human being means. You have a responsibility for living. Living means doing what you need to do in order to live. You work, you pray, you have leisure activities, you sleep, you shop, you eat, you raise families, you have friends, you make life pleasant for yourselves as you can.

Now the virtue of Trust. It is a virtue because it relies on God. It is a virtue because you must learn it.

It is a virtue because the opposite is to despair, give up. Yet the virtue of trust says to God, "I believe You will assist me to carry out the work, life, prayer, family duties and all, in a way most pleasing to God and that means good things for my Soul." Trust, then, is belief that God will cooperate with you to make what you do well. It is not doing it for you, but cooperating with you as you work, to help you do what you are doing well. To work well, to build well, to travel safely, to protect your home and family well. It is up to you, but if you trust God to help you, be sure to ask Him, you can feel comfortably sure that your outcome will be satisfactory and acceptably performed.

In trust, God is your Helper, not doer.

You see, My Children, being a human being has various problems. Lack of ability, lack of assurance, lack of self esteem and self confidence. There are many different types of ways the human mind acts and God knows that. Lack of a personal sense of ability in many things lead people to lose more confidence in themselves and what they can do. So God created the virtue of Hope in God's mercy and help, and next to it the virtue of trust. In Trust and Hope in God's assistance, there is assurance that some power greater than your personal weakness is with you. Yes, indeed, God is with you.

So you see, My Children, the virtues of Hope and Trust are worthy virtues to attain in your lives. The opposite is despair, fear, fright, loss of direction, being ashamed of one's self and life, panic, depression, anxiety and other neuroses. But to hope and trust that you will be helped, that what happens is what God desires for you and yours, that you may not "get" all you desire, but that what you obtain from your work is what God allows, is very, very comforting. In fact, it is a signally significant way God wants you to act.

It is not God's plan that everyone has whatever others have, nor that they look alike, eat alike, work alike, live alike. Each human being is different and as such responds to living differently. This may be due to the country and place they live, the money they have, the abilities they have, the family or lack of family they have and so forth. Difference is the way it is among human beings. Difference is what is God's plan. In those differences, each human being is called upon to do what they can, are able to do, with what has been given based upon their own efforts and God's help.

So often in Heaven We hear pleas for greater wealth, better this, better that, and We do not see people strive to make their lives better to get what they want. Do they think God will just open up a money tree and let fall money or good jobs or better families? 0 no, My Children, you have a responsibility to work toward your goals. It is alright to wish, to dream, to pray for what you desire, but you must also have the awareness that God helps those who help themselves. Do not take that thought beyond what I have said. It is not right to steal, to fight, to argue in order to get your way. It is right and proper to work hard to achieve what you desire and dream of asking God, if it is His Will, that you attain what you seek.

Some Sundays ago you heard the Gospel about the man who sold all to buy a field with a large treasure buried there. That is the way Heaven is: a great treasure to be acquired at all costs. It is Heaven you seek and not all this earth's treasure. Keep that in mind when you dream, search, desire. Each person has to move hurdles in life to obtain the dream they seek. That is the way it is, My Children. Yet some boulders are too heavy. Perhaps God is telling you you have gone far enough. Listen for the Lord's Word, pray with Hope and Trust, and then proceed.

0 My Children, this is a great time for this lesson for as I have asked you to store food and water, to prepare to barter for goods, some have become so complacent and have done nothing. Why? They say they want God to provide as they trust Him to help them. 0 My Children, your Hope and Trust are good, but not fully understood. Trust in God, yes, but you must do your part. You get the extra food and water ready and then trust that there will be enough.

0 My Children, many miracles are performed by God daily, in small and great ways, but if you look closely you will see people working to make things happen. How much work by so many to bring all nine miners out of a death cave? How many firefighters to rescue people from a burning building? So you must work and also trust that God will look kindly on what you are doing and make its outcome as you desire.

I love you all. - Jesus"

Prophetic Messages by Blessed Virgin Mary

Given to Her Secretary, Dr. M.J. Even

"My Sweet Children, I wish to speak to you, each of you, as a Mother. I am the Mother of so many and yet so many ignore Me and the potential to have Me as their Mother. Though I do not ignore them, they ignore Me. It is so sad, My Children, because with more help, unity and prayer, We could accomplish so very much. Yes, We, you and I, together with all My Children.

Now, Dear Children, as your Mother I wish to express My great earnestness for you all at this time. These are the days of woe, of trouble. I look at your Souls and estimate your Spiritual readiness for what is asked of you. I am concerned because not all of you are ready. No, not all of you are in the state of Sanctifying Grace. You appear to not have made a good confession of sin. Please, My Children, it is very important you find a good holy Priest and make a good Confession now while they may still be available for you.

0 My Children, We have spoken of this before. We have spoken of the need to confess to a good, holy, traditional Priest before these are not available to you. It will be late, maybe too late after the Pope flees and the Modernists take over. It is essential you confess to a true holy Priest with the total capacity to forgive sins correctly. Do not wait. Go to Confession now.

These days for the Church are most difficult. Yet it is still the Church of Jesus, built by Him on the Twelve Apostles. Some days I see it is a shadow of its former self, but it is still the Holy Roman Catholic Church led by your Holy Pontiff, Pope John Paul II. Remember that, Dear Children. Never lose sight of the Liturgy and Sacraments. Never forget the True Faith and that you are a true, loyal believer. Whatever occurs, always recognize yourself as a True follower of the True Catholic Faith.

Now I wish you to pray for the Bishops and Priests that they will always hold to the True Faith and not give in to the Modernists and the Anti-Pope. It will appear that much will change when the Anti-Pope is put on the throne of Peter, but you mustn't be confused or confounded. You must live the True Faith and know that Heaven is with you.

I say confused because even small events or sayings from some Priests have led some to say they are confused. That means to Me they do not know what is correct and right. That says to Me they have not done what We have asked and that is to learn the Faith, know the Faith, and respond individually according to the True Faith Dogma and Catechism. We have advised you to do that because you will receive various views of what the Faith practices are from many others, especially from Modernist Priests and Bishops. They have a story, an explanation for you of why the changes, but in many ways you will see the error if you know the True Faith. Quietly then you can evaluate the changes, recognize potential errors, and plan your strategy to take care of your Soul. It will be harder for some than others because they do not have a strength of purpose or resolve. Yes, you will need a great deal of resolve and you will see that it may require extra work to hold to your True Faith Principles.

Some people may say, "Well God knows I believe in Him and am a good Catholic, even if I do these things as change occurs." 0 My Dear Children, that may be true to an extent but the various changes and your acquiescence of them does not show you know the Faith and are being very weak in fulfilling your duty as a Catholic. No matter what their argument you must assess the fact truth from fiction, the True Catholic beliefs from the newer modernist view.

This is the problem today with some Catholics who have accepted the work of Eucharistic Ministers. We have explained the errors of this over the years, yet some are cajoled by Priests into doing it. What is it that makes them do so? Could it be pride? Or not understanding the problem? Some say "Its best I do it. Look who might be asked." 0 My Children, why do you seek a rationale that favors your participation? It is paradoxical that some who only receive from a Priest and on the tongue themselves, are also Eucharistic Ministers. That I do not understand. It appears without reason. No, it is important you realize what you are doing. Make a decision and make a change. You say No if asked. Others must find the error of these ways themselves.

All this and more have come about due to the lack of reverence in the Holy Eucharist. The extreme nonchalance of those who receive Holy Communion and the great indifference shown the Holy Eucharist by some Priests. That is not the way it should be or was it that way years ago. This has become a growing trend. It is difficult to watch the bruising of My Son in Holy Eucharist by those who mistreat Him. He suffers greatly and as a Mother I suffer greatly. Indeed Jesus has stopped coming in some places at the Eternal Father's insistence. Woe to those Priests with such indifference and who treat or allow My son to be bruised so badly. Where is the respect for God?

Now Dear Children, We all have much to pray about. We all have great numbers of people to help with prayer. Do we not? Aren't there long lists of people who need your prayer and its Grace? 0 yes. These times require those of Faith to consider the great and small who need prayer. Join Me as your Mother's Helpers in prayer for all. Join Me Dear Children, in our daily combat against the evils which have invaded the world by praying. When you have a free minute, say a prayer. As you drive through traffic, say a prayer. As you walk, as you clean, wash, all times your mind is free, say a prayer. That will really help, believe Me. It will help because you are not alone as you pray. You have your Mother with you. Together thousands of these little prayers joined together as one with your Mother can work miracles.

I love you all, Dear Children. I am your Mother.

- Mary"

Prophetic Messages by St. Joseph

Given to His Secretary, Dr. M.J. Even

"Dear Children of the Most Pure Heart of St. Joseph I wish to provide you a message, a lesson that I believe will renew your resolve to prepare yourselves for these days ahead and for entry into the Reign of Peace. The days We have spoken of your preparation for the Reign of Peace were long ago and so many have not considered that preparation now Spiritually also will be a part of your preparation for the Reign of Peace for you must be prepared for that time Spiritually, also.

We have reported and examined the nature of the Reign of Peace. In so doing We have encouraged you to prepare Spiritually for it by making a General Confession and praying in reparation for your sins at least one day a week, so then your Soul will be cleansed and you will be thus admitted to the Reign of Peace.

Thus Spiritually ready, you will enter. Now I remind you, then, that your preparation today has a double focus. To be ready for these difficult days will also make you ready to enter the Reign of Peace. This should encourage your effort. This should remind you that there is a greater goal than just for this time. This should remind you that there are greater expectations for your preparations.

We of Heaven wish to remind you of these things as so many are caught up in the thoughts of today and forgotten the greater goal which is entry into the Reign of Peace.

So it is time to mention again that though life appears difficult for you now, there are rewards awaiting you. Do not delay, then, in your preparation. Do not let yourselves only look at these days, but rejoice that good things will come to you at its end.

Keep in mind, Dear Children, that hardships, difficulties and personal sufferings can be offered up in Sacrifice. Do not let these difficulties go by without offering them for your Soul and the Souls of those for whom you pray. Be assured all are accepted. Be assured We of Heaven are with you in these Sacrifices. Once offered, many are relieved of great burdens for offering says to God you accept what has been asked of you. Yes, acceptance today is the keystone of tomorrow's joys.

People tend to forget that God sometimes allows suffering until a person accepts it as His Will. A mental attitude of acceptance is what God desires. Let His Will be all for you. Let God take charge of all you have to endure. You let God decide and you accept what He asks of you. Continually say, "May your Holy Will be done in me, 0 Lord." And, "All for you Most Sacred Heart of Jesus through the Immaculate Heart of Mary." Say, "I accept every moment from You, 0 Lord, knowing all is allowed by Your Hand." Be at peace, then, count on Heaven's Help, and be at peace.

My Sweet Children, it is hard for you sometimes to truly feel that God wants some things of you that you find difficult. You pray for cures, for healing, for relief. That is alright but under it all needs to be an awareness and acceptance that God wills you to suffer thus now. That is acceptance of God's Will for you. It is important.

People get so stressed by the fact things happen to them. They do not see God's Hand in these things. They are difficult to endure. Yet God has a plan for you and His Will will be done. The sooner you understand this, the happier you will be in your offering all to God as a Sacrifice.

People get so upset, so unnerved by things they can not control. They sometimes blame God and ask for things to get back to "normal". Life isn't always a straight line without peaks and valleys. These peaks and valleys offer you the time and resource to give sacrifice. Accept these changes as God's Will, Dear Children.

Now Dear Children, I wish you to meditate on how you might better present yourselves to God. You may wish to consider words which show Him your acceptance. You could say thank you and you hope that He will provide and help you in His Mercy. You might give Him the sacrifice He has asked you to bear and offer all for His Glory and for the Poor Souls in Purgatory.

These days are difficult, but they can be made lighter by your offering and trust. Jesus Christ spoke of trust. God will be your helper if you ask Him. Prepare your words while thinking about this and make ready use of these words daily. You will obtain a great feeling of relief.

These days are going by so quickly. There is barely enough time to complete what you normally could. Have you noticed this? It is the end of the roller and the roller goes more quickly as the end of the era approaches. Though quickly, please do not miss your prayers and devotions. Keep them in your schedule for each day.

Dear Children, I wish to conclude these lessons with another brief lesson. It is this: All of Heaven will come to your assistance if you ask. Ask that "all the Angels and Saints surround, protect, guide and assist me, in all I do and in every way this day and each day of my life."

I have given you several lines for prayers in this lesson. I hope you memorize them and speak them often. Contemplate what they really mean and put that meaning into practice in your lives.

Sweet Children, I am Joseph."
