A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul
Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.
Prayer for Union with Jesus
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.
I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.
When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.

Messenger: We must not focus on what others say or think about us. the devil uses this tactic to keep us stuck.
Mary speaks: My children, I wish you to be free of his snare. You must operate and think, "What does God want of me?" "What does God wish?"
Jesus speaks: There will always be those who like you and dislike you. They put Me to death on the cross. They beat My Body, they ridiculed Me, they tore My flesh.
You cannot let the devil affect your behavior. The devil tries to divide you from others.
By telling you in your mind others are talking negatively about you, the devil can keep
you focused on yourselves and this thought pattern will lead you to be divided with
others. You will not work for oneness because you are focused on yourself.
Your behavior, the love in your heart should be guided by God' will.
If every time someone thinks ill of you, you change your disposition, you are controlled by them.
Persons acting in God's name are active.
They operate from the inner knowing of what God's will is for them.
If your disposition and actions are drastically changed because someone doesn't like you or you think they do not like you, you are not acting freely.
A son of God loves. Your behavior may be changed by the actions of others because you interact, but you cannot be controlled by the way one treats you with regard to the disposition of your heart.
I consistently loved all. I am God. No matter what they did to Me, I loved them.
Satan is the mastery of trickery to get you divided, downcast and miserable.
You cannot let the hatred and ill-will of others diminish the love within your heart.
I am love. You must recognize the truth, but deal with it in love.
You yourselves must pray to be molded more and more in my image and likeness.
You have lots of raw edges to burn off, many unloving ways to unlearn.
Begin by praying the Prayer for Union with Jesus when you are beginning to worry what others are thinking or saying about you.
You will be free, pure of heart, more and more like My Mother. You will act as God wills you to act, you won't be a victim of others' evil ways or ill-will towards you.
You will be in control of your emotions, for you will know how precious you are to Me. Always focus on your preciousness to Me. I died for you. I loved you so much, I shed My Blood and died for you. I love you so much, I give Myself completely to you in the Eucharist.
Do you want to be free? - then pray: "COME TO ME LORD AND POSSESS MY SOUL..."
Do not talk dishonorably about your brothers. (You must talk about others sometimes. You must recognize the truth so you or others under your authority are not led astray. You must bring up others' faults to those who should know about these because of certain circumstances. This is not talking dishonorably, it is to unveil Satan's tactics in a family or organization.)
Do not try to make yourself better than others by saying, "I am holier than you, etc."
Do not hide the truth from yourselves. Recognize your own sinfulness and dependency on God. Ask to be enlightened that you can die to hidden ways of acting toward others that are very unloving.
When they spit on Me, I loved them. When they whipped Me, I loved them.
You are a child of the Light. I am the Light of the world. You act according to My ways. If all saw clearly as God sees all the sins and faults, they would not cover up and pretend to be perfect.
You are all the tainted children of Eve.
Luke 2:35
and a sword will pierce your soul too--so that the secret thoughts of many may be laid bare.'
Jesus speaks: The good thief and the bad thief, Cain and Abel, a beginning - an end, and My Heart will reign. All enemies will be destroyed. I will reign.
Revelation 21:22-27
I could not see any temple in the city since the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb were themselves the temple, and the city did not need the sun or the moon for light, since it was lit by the radiant glory of God, and the Lamb was a lighted torch for it. The nations will come to its light and the kings of the earth will bring it their treasures. Its gates will never be closed by day - and there will be no night there - and the nations will come, bringing their treasure and their wealth. Nothing unclean may come into it: no one who does what is loathsome or false, but only those who are listed in the Lamb's book of life.
Jesus speaks: You must walk in the truth, embrace it, see your faults, beg for enlightenment. Begin putting your heads together working for Me. So many think they are better than everyone else. You must act as God wills in loving harmony.
Revelation 22:1-4
Then the angel showed me the river of life, rising from the throne of God and of the Lamb and flowing crystal-clear. Down the middle of the city street, on either bank of the river were the trees of life, which bear twelve crops of fruit in a year, one in each month, and the leaves of which are the cure for the nations.
The curse of destruction will be abolished. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city; his servants will worship him, they will see him face to face, and his name will be written on their foreheads.
Mary speaks: I appear in Clearwater as Our Lady Clothed with the Sun.
Ecclesiasticus 4:25-27
Do not contradict the truth,
rather blush for your own ignorance.
Do not be ashamed to confess your sins,
do not struggle against the current of the river.
Do not grovel to the foolish,
do not show partiality to the influential.
Mary speaks: I am the Lady of Light, I appear to lead you to the Light. I am your Mother, let your hearts not be troubled, give me you heart. I am Mary Immaculate, conceived without sin.
Q: How do I feel suffering in our relationship has led us to greater life?
