"Sweet Children, as these days of Lent progress, consider the state of your Soul. Try to peel away the soot left by sin and cleanse the Soul with a pure bath of Grace. Each sacrifice, each suffering, each prayer can assist you. Call upon the Angels and your Patron Saints to help you understand how much reparation is needed. They will encourage you to offer more and more. They will do this through a persistent nagging in your mind to remember to do this. You will feel the effects of their encouragement. Then you need to respond as We have taught you.
During these latter days say the Novena of Divine Mercy also. It is a powerful Novena. It can add much Grace and blessing for your Souls.
During these days, try to be meditative, reflective and quiet. Try to give your Soul some peace. This also will help your mind to gather the quietude for meditation and prayer.
Be at peace now, Dear Children. I love you. - Jesus"

"Sweet Children, I do not ask you to spend each moment of each day saying verbal prayers because you have duties, responsibilities and things to ponder, work out, as part of living. What I do ask is that you consecrate each moment of each day as a prayer and sacrifice. That makes all you do, all you do at work, home and on the way to and from such activity, all, a prayer. It does not require wordy prayers. No, just your living these activities will be a prayer.
Now you could offer up these quiet prayerful ways for some special needs, for Souls to be saved, for your various needs and those of your family and work. Do not forget to offer one day a week in reparation for your sins. Add also prayers for your family and friends as you wish. Remember My Intentions before the Judgement Seat of God for the Salvation of Souls.
Hear Me, My Children. We must be more efficient and effective in prayer. This method will not allow one moment to be lost. It is most efficient and you gain much Grace. These days much Grace is needed by all, as the evil ones are rampant in their desire to make people sin. They are accosting people in their sleep. They press people to consider images of a sinful nature using what people like to think about as their entry. Before you know it, you realize you are thinking about improper images or examining issues that you would not really wish to do. These casual images, these oft times careless ways of thinking, lead, could lead, you to great sin if you acknowledge and accept them. Be alert therefore. Keep a prayerful thought in your mind. If you encounter this say: "In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Satan be gone." They will laugh at being found out this time, but will try again.
Be alert now as ever before. All of Hell is working on earth. - Mary"

"Sweet Children of My Most Pure Heart, these days of worry and confusion are but a beginning of the more turbulent times ahead. In all, you need to be at peace and trust in the Providential Care of God in the Most Blessed Trinity.
If you are prepared. If you have done what We have asked you, you are ready. You need not fear. Many now have completed their home preparations since the U.S. Government has recommended just what We have stressed for ten years. Many now see value from reading these messages. Our Blessed Queen told you that others not believing would begin to understand before that time, and now you see the truth of that statement.
Be prepared My Children. Know We know whereas We speak. We ask you to plan ahead in prudence. Please do so. - Joseph"

"Sweet Children, this month the lesson I will give you is on the qualities and perfection of the Blessed Virgin Mary. She is a model of Virtue for you to consider applying to yourselves. She has a degree of purity, modesty and humility that will leave many to wonder Her majesty.
You will have noticed that the Blessed Virgin Mary, My Mother and My Queen, shall sit upon the throne next to Me at the General Judgement. It is right and just that She be there for She is the "Mirror of Justice," the "Seat of Wisdom." In Her work with those upon earth She is well acquainted with God's judgement of people. She has had a hand in offering His Mercy to many. It is She who has held back many of the severest judgments, and with Her Grace caused many to receive Mercy and Salvation. Since She has had such a great influence on so many particular judgements, it is right She shall sit at My side during the General Judgement. I am with you. - Jesus"

"Sweet Children, all of Heaven, that is those who are in Heaven, the Saints, with the Angels, and I are working very hard these days to combat the assaults of the demons from Hell upon earth. You, yourself, need to pray to hold back this evil.
The effect of evil is very apparent to you all, I am sure. So little, these days, are of God, demonstrate God's Commandments, or show people the ways of Virtue. The television reality shows appear innocent enough, but they are not. There is talk of envy, jealousy, immodest dress. There is evil made to look good everywhere. Please be more alert to the language, talk, dress and behavior of what you see. It is not all for good. Much of it is blatant evil.
0, My Children, do you not think these images and talk won't affect you? Are you blind to the influence? You are not being realistic. You are showing your naivete. These same images reappear in your dreams and thoughts during the night and in daydreams. Watch yourselves. Try to avoid these images. Ask your Angels and Saints to surround, protect, guide and assist you. They can hold back the evil ones from you, but you need to ask for their help. Please do.
Sweet Children, make a special effort this Lent to rid your thoughts and minds of evil images. Turn off the television when you realize what you are seeing is not good for you. Stop being naive, but alert to the evil that surrounds you. We love you. - Mary"
"Sweet Children, as you prepare your Soul, mind and body for the Reign of Peace, be also aware that you need to prepare various other things to help you move into the Reign more effortlessly. In preparation for planting gardens, you could store various seeds. In preparation for sewing, you could store threads, needles and acquire a non-electric machine to sew. You could store yam, cloth - particularly cotton, dark blue and white, a loom if you can weave. Just remember there will be no electricity.
You could store hammers, saws, nails, and such, for carpentry. You could acquire the tools you wish for your gifts to share. Yet you may also wish to consider storing toys and games for Children. Books of all kinds for Children also.
Our Blessed Queen long ago asked for Religious books for all ages to be stored as well as rosaries and crucifixes and medals.
Just think ahead, My Children. What will be needed? If you get an idea, store some. Of course, I haven't mentioned your personal needs, such as toothpaste, soap and such. Think, meditate on your needs and begin to store extras of everything. We love you and shall help you. - Joseph"

"Dear Children of My Sacred Heart, I wish to offer you a lesson of a most practical kind, for it will enlighten you to the beauty and resourcefulness of My Mother and give you a clearer idea of the model for your own Spiritual development. Whether female or male the lessons to be learned from My Mother will give you years of practical hints.
You need to understand that as My Father and I contemplated the earth and its formation, the peoples and their environments, We knew that I would leave Heaven's realms, proceed to earth, live there, suffer and die, and return to Heaven the Victor. It was necessary that I live a normal life among humans, and to do so I needed a Mother. I already had a Father, but a Mother was necessary to be born on earth.
During the times of thought, the various ways such a woman could be incorporated into the grand scheme of things as My Father and I desired, it was clear that just any woman wouldn't do. This had to be a woman of great beauty, intelligence, purity, virtue and skill. This had to be a perfect person whose virtue could lead to greater Grace, whose ability could be used by your God for eternity. This must be a special person. Thus it was We generated the image, likeness and attributes of such a lady.
From eternity such a presence was drawn, and Her Soul lit up the Heavens until She was conceived. Yes, for eons Her Soul was given great understanding, gifts, fruits and special blessings, for this woman was to be made sinless and provide the gift of Grace to all Women caught by the sin of Eve. Yes, Her gifts and Her substantive efforts for Grace were to undo the bounds held by women since the fall of Eve. Not to take away Original sin. Oh no. But to repair by a special gift of Grace the sin committed.
It was further envisioned that this woman would be a corner to the Trinity offering all the Graces given by the Most Blessed Trinity. She, as woman, would dispense these Graces. She would be a "Mirror of Justice", "Mother of Mercy," helper of the needy, provider, healer, helper, source of comfort. This woman would be the "acting" arm of God. Into Her hands would be placed the work of God. She would organize, analyze, assess, dispense. She would direct the Angels and Saints in their duties. She would help those of earth as they called to Her and to God for help. This Mother of Mine was a welcome addition to the Heavenly effort to bring the gifts of Heaven to earth.
Thus it was that we created the Soul and the body of My Mother. Her appearance was in the normal manner, born of a woman. From the beginning She communicated with God. Not as a child or baby, did She communicate, but in words and languages. She could speak from the time of Her birth. Her total intelligence was apparent also from birth, as was Her ability to feel, hear, see and know. Yet She hid these gifts until an appropriate age. Yet She spoke to God in praise and prayer, adoration and thanksgiving from the very beginning. Thus gifted She was a beautiful Child, Daughter.
At the age of three years She was taken to the Temple to be a vestal [chaste and virtuous] Virgin. Her parents promised She would be offered thus to God, if they had a child. As it was, both Her parents died while She was still in the Temple. Thus God provided for Her a home and safety.
During the years in the Temple She was taught by the Teachers. Though She knew what they were teaching Her, She was a diligent student. As it was necessary for Her to have a husband for the proper care of Her Son-to-be, St. Joseph, pure and chaste and dedicated to live a chaste life was chosen by God as Her husband.
It was almost time for the Annunciation so things had to progress rapidly. She lived alone for a year during which time the Annunciation took place. I came to earth to reside in Her womb. St. Joseph had to be restored to mental health, when He learned of Her pregnancy. He was, believed, and they lived in the same house, but not in the same quarters.
You know how the story goes. They had to travel to Bethlehem for the census, and there I was born. My Mother was the most peaceful woman, and recognized, believed that God in His way would take care of them. This He did as you know. There were many times when My Mother could have become totally angry over the conditions She lived in, or let loose a temper, spoke harshly, but She never did. She dealt with what God gave Her for the time given. I say this because so many today lose heart, yell a lot, question everything, want more, but fail to accept the conditions given and do with what you have. This applies to men as well as women.
I wish to skip ahead many years, pass My Crucifixion and death, the burial, resurrection and then We come to Her work with the Apostles and disciples. It was at this time She taught them how to pray. She helped them gather together to say the Creed for the first time. She began also to say the Stations of the Cross. She counseled them, joined them on many journeys, looked after the new converts, and She prayed. 0, My Mother prayed for the Faith, the Church, the Apostles, the disciples, and all who would enter the Faith.
She prayed all night with Her Choir of Angels. She prayed all day. It was Her prayers that healed many, helped many, and brought many to the Faith. Her prayers were a joyous gift to Heaven. Her prayers, said in the most unselfish manner, were heard and answered. I tried to get Her to Heaven earlier than She did die, but She said, "No, I must die as you have died here on earth." When I finally took Her to Heaven She was received by all the Angels and Saints as their great and noble "Mother". Then the Most Blessed Trinity crowned Her as Their Queen. It was a great day of rejoicing for all of Heaven and especially for My Father and I with the Holy Ghost. We had Our loved one home with Us again.
Immediately My Mother was given work to do, things to manage, and each passing year more and more Titles and jobs. We have called her the C.E.O. [Commanding Executive Officer] of Heaven. God does not work, but She does all We ask, and the tasks have multiplied over time. She has all the Angels and Saints to help Her. She does all We ask, and adds a touch of Her own mystical powers also.
So you see My Holy Mother is great beyond your imagining. She has been given much, but Her energy and Commitment to God has never faltered. She is great and honored. There is a saying which expresses this well - "She is earth's solitary boast." That is true. Born of a woman, lived life on earth as a woman, and now is great in Heaven.
This woman y�u have as your Mother too, deserves the recognition, heartfelt thanks, and honor. I must say I agree with St. Joseph who, with the Angels and Saints, find the general attitude toward My Mother quite despicable. She however never thinks of Herself and accepts all in humility. Yes, this is My Mother.
I hope I have touched your heart. I hope you give Her the recognition and love as She should be given. I love you all, My Children. - Jesus"

"Dear Children of My Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart, I offer you another lesson in the practical vein this month. It pertains to the Reign of Peace. Have you ever thought how the many people in the Reign of Peace will fill all the houses in Heaven left vacant by those who have gone to Hell? Have you considered the ways God wants this accomplished? We need persons to fill the houses. We need to generate many, many millions of Souls to fill these houses. How can so few bring this about? It is really quite simple.
Let Me set the stage for you. Each of you will be living with a large family grouping in a territory of that time. All the peoples of your family grouping will support each other, pray together, and live at peace with each other. This is your family unit.
Now what special feature could this family unit have but to take care of children. Yes, you will farm, build, work, study, pray, give leadership, but at home you will be raising Children.
Pregnancy will be given as a gift to women. All babies will be born without problems or illnesses. Doctors and nurses can help the timid, but all will go smoothly. Whether you are 20 or 100 you will have babies in multiple groupings.
Young unmarried girls, if not called to religious life, will find the man of their dreams, and marry. They can expect many, many children. That is why the Family units are so important.
As My daughter [Mary Jane Even] travels she meets young couples. They are asked if they would like many children? Those who have been asked say, "yes." We tell them they will have forty - fifty children. They are happy because they know that God will provide and their family grouping around them will help.
In addition to children born into families, there are special women who have been asked to bear many children. These women are called Princesses. Other persons have been chosen to assist them and they are called Baronesses. Heads of these units are called Queens. Since this is the first time I have spoken of these special persons appointed for these tasks, I wish to give some background. All of these persons have been chosen for their age and ability. Not all accepted, and some have had to be replaced. Yet such a commitment has been offered to many, and with these workers in place, there are greater advances to be made in the production and delivery of children. "
Note of the Webmaster: It is not said how these children will be conceived. It is only said: 'not in families'. Now to a family normally belongs a man, a husband. Should we - in this case - understand these Queens and Princesses will conceive without acknowledging a man ? Will God introduce and install new ways of conception ?
"It may surprise you how organized Heaven has been on these matters. When God the Father said He wanted all the Houses of Heaven filled, and the time for this to begin is the Reign of Peace, much effort has been made to fulfill His wishes. We need people, Souls, to make this happen.
You have your family, you have good health and healthy children. You will have no birthing pains. All ages of women shall conceive and bear children.
In order for these Children to be educated there will be schools in each Community. The Children will make their First Holy Communion with Confession, then Confirmation, and such, in the ways of Faith and the Church. These will be special Children as none of them will know the evils of sin, the horrors of war and crises, and be extremely virtuous in their lives and prayerful. It is hard to imagine now, but all Children born during the Reign will have special gifts, not get sick, and be a joy to their parents and family grouping.
Can you picture the homes in those days? All Children obeying, praying, working, resting, helping, quiet. What a joy and pleasure ! If you pictured fifty Children as they appear now in many places, I do not think you would wish to have so many, but these Children will be gifted and always at peace, for the world they will know IS peace.
This is why I have suggested over the years for you to gather children's clothes, clean them, box them, and store them away. Whether you are young or old, they will be needed by someone. Store these clothes for children of all ages. They will be reused often, but the water of the Jordan which flows through the territories will make the cloth and garment like new. Do not forget cloth diapers. There will be no rashes nor children's diseases. They may scratch legs, break a bone, but these will heal quickly. So do not worry about illnesses or medicines. Just clothes. You may think about sandals and shoes also if you can. Many children will go barefoot or wear simple sandals.
It is hard to imagine a time of peace. It is hard to contemplate a world free of harsh noise, rude language and fighting. That is all some of you have ever known. That is why it will take years to readjust your minds and memories. Think about this some day as you take a walk. Picture yourself walking along a lovely tree-lined road and stopping to cup water into your palm from the creek and pull a piece of fruit off the tree to eat as you walk.
My Sweet Children, you may now become more conscious of why I ask you to store this or get that. You now see I am well aware of your needs now and in the future. For example, I have asked you to consider placing some clothes for the Reign of Peace in a suitcase at the back of your closet. Some people look at that and say, "Why?", when they have a closet of clothes, and [when] your home may be holy [and] safe, and will go with you. [However,]I say because you do not know what lies ahead in the persecution before the Reign of Peace [do as I ask]. People could steal what you have, but overlook a case in your closet. I am not saying, that will happen, I am only giving you an idea of what could happen. If you had to leave your house for a time, you could take the suitcase. It is ready. So it goes. You think it through and decide. We are trying to help you, recognizing human nature as it is.
Now I have come to the end of this lesson, and ask for your meditation and diligent effort to see what you can do to make the transition from your life into the Reign of Peace an easier transition.
There is much work to be done in the Reign of Peace. I have tried to inform you of the practical and mystical aspects of one of these tasks. Everyone shall work together to bring this about. Everyone will be pleased and happy with all that will occur.
We want you there, Dear Children. Pray for the Grace to be there. Seek reparation for your sins so you may cleanse your Souls sufficiently to be there. I love you all, Dear Children. - Mary"
Prophetic Messages by St. Joseph Given to His Secretary, Dr. M.J. Even - March - Vol.3

"Sweet Children, I hope you enjoyed the more practical as well as mystical examination of Heaven I gave you last month. It is hoped it will encourage you to live according to God's Commands while on earth in order to earn Heaven. Earning Heaven must be your principal aim in life. Earning Heaven should be the focus of your life. I realize you have many distractions in the world of today, but you must sit down and ponder, think about, what you need to do to personally earn Heaven.
Perhaps this Lent is a time you could consider this goal. Perhaps you can make the time to go to Confession, cleanse your Soul in reparation, desire your place in Heaven. Try to lift up your thoughts to these ideas. To do so is also a prayer.
You must remember Confession is only the beginning, reparation must be done. Purgatory is reparation. Reparation means to cleanse the soul, and it is very hard to do. It takes a long time, and must be performed in an unselfish state of mind. Some sacrifice can not be accepted because it was done selfishly or pridefully. Know this. Try to make your mind and thoughts centered upon reparation for sins alone. Do not look at your Soul and say, "it is clean now." That is presumption and another sin. Never assume sufficiency in reparation.
Sweet Children, if you could each day say some prayers in reparation, this would help. Your daily consecration of your day, other prayers also said. Offer your intentions, but add, "in reparation for my sins." This will help also. I can not tell you how greatly reparation helps you. It enables you to win more Grace, to oppose sinning in some ways, and gives you a strong mental health. You are not burdened by the effects of these sins in your thoughts or dreams.
But Children, in a very practical way you must take full responsibility for this reparation. It's your Soul. No one else alive can help you. No Community, no prayer group, family or friends. You are on your own in this as in death's reward or punishment.
Being alone with and for God should help you see the great value in what you do. Yet others feel they could not care at all or decide they never really sinned enough to warrant this need for reparation. How is this possible? No mortal is without sin. The Blessed Queen and Her Son are the only perfects of human nature. Do not presume your worth. That is a sin also.
As Jesus has said earlier, some people are in Hell only because they failed to do a little more, like confess, do penance, pray. Some do not feel they need to pray. Are they feeling they are too good - that is pride, a Cardinal sin ? Do they just think God knows all, and perhaps you love Him, so He will see to all your needs ? 0 my goodness, what presumption ! It doesn't work that way. God wants you to talk to Him, communicate with Him. That is praying. He wants signs of love, of praise, of Confession, of penance, of reparation. He wants you to work with Him doing these things to earn Heaven.
Each year you are given Lent and Advent to think more clearly about your Soul and your life here on earth. It is wise to use that time to your advantage. Some people just count on occasions of great mercy and forgiveness as a quick way to dispense the work of reparation. 0 my Children, this only helps if you have done your part, confessed, and live a life of virtue. You can not expect a quick, miraculous way to cleanse your Souls. You must earn it. Granted these special occasions are helpful, but how can they help when you do nothing to help yourselves? Think about it.
My Children, all the Saints would advise you, by their prayers and lives what it takes to get to Heaven. They lived for God and their lives are models to help you earn Heaven. Read the lives of the Saints. Try to study how they coped with tragedy, problems and crises. Apply these lessons to your own lives. It would help.
Now I wish to explain another side of reparation that you may have forgotten or did not know. That is you must offer reparation for sins of omission - things you failed to do, which resulted in sinning. Sins of comission - things you know you did, and confessed, are usually the only things people think of when doing reparation. But sins of omission need to be confessed, reparation made for them also. That is the suffering of cold in Purgatory. Some Saints have explained they saw people in Purgatory freezing on the bottom and burning on top: cold for sins of Omission and heat for sins of Commission. (Read about it in the book on Purgatory.)
Where would pride put you? Granted there are levels of pride, but basically it is a Capital sin, and most often a mortal sin. Be sure to confess the sins of pride. Envy, sloth, avarice, greed, selfishness, lying, lack of trust in God: These are often confessed sins. Where would they put you in Purgatory? Think about it and get to work today on reparation.
Some in Purgatory have been, are, there for hundreds of years, so say the Saints. Why? One girl ridiculed the Blessed Mother's Apparition at Fatima. Another criticized all aspects of the Faith. Some actually engaged in Satanism and witchcraft. Yet through the Mercy of God and Grace from the Blessed Virgin Mary, they were saved. It was their Confession, and the prayers of others, the burial Mass, and prayers of the Priest. Yet they suffer now in reparation to cleanse their Souls of the marks of these sins. Now, y�u can begin to cleanse your Soul now, while on earth. You need to do a great deal of reparation to go into the Reign of Peace. Souls need to be cleansed to enter.
My Children, I am giving you a reality check on your Soul. Some harsher comments needed to be said because people are being very casual about reparation. It should not be seen as a casual process. Make it an earnest one. Until next month. - I am Joseph"
