Thank you father what a beautiful sermon and the way you presented so clearly God bless you and your orders. Amen.🙏⛪️

Im so glad I found this. I've definitely experienced this. I'm a revert. Jesus called me back in a dramatic, spiritual way, but I still doubted, and it took years for me to return to the church. I kept being confused by my experience and doubting that it meant anything. When I made the decision and started attending church, I was tormented at night for hours with guilt and was hearing that I was doomed and that He would never forgive me. It tried to convince me that it was hopeless. I was in agony for months. I prayed fervently and cried and begged Jesus and God to spare me, but I was met with silence. When I picked up my rosary, our lady came and comforted me (spiritually). I clung to that rosary, and I was able to sleep only with it in my hands. It became a lifeline for me. I went to confession several times before I really found peace. The attacks are much less frequent and severe, but the rosary is still my refuge. I pray my rosary every day now, and I started fasting for penance, and that really helped too.

Thank you for your testimony. One thing I would highly recommend as someone who has been spiritually attacked in my own home at night, have a priest bless your home. Crazy thing is my wife and I thought ours was blessed bc we knew the previous homeowners and they had it blessed, but then we found out when you sell something, it loses its blessing! Ever since we blessed it and have been praying more, no more attacks! So much peace. Our Blessed Mother is so gracious!

@jonsneaux7903 Thank you. I am arranging to have our priest bless it soon. I was given some exorcized salt to sprinkle around our house, and it has gotten much better. Hopefully, our priest will come in a couple of weeks to bless our house. I've been surprised how well the salt worked, though. The past couple of months have been weird. I've been hearing noises outside that stop with prayer. Outside doors closing and footsteps behind me. (My dog heard it too) And I felt a presence in the house as well. As soon as I pick up my rosary or pray a Hail Mary, it will stop. I haven't had anything happen since I used the salt, but my priest is aware and is coming over soon. We also have a new catecumin, who is converting from prodestantism that was being physically attacked. She tried to seek help at prodestant churches, but they recommended her to us. Mary and Jesus have helped her greatly, working together. Her attacks have gotten less physical but continued mentally. She is scheduled to see the exorcist next month, but we are limited in helping her because she doesn't have access to the sacraments. But she wears a scapula and always keeps her rosary on her, and her ordeal has gotten much better. It's amazing how our God works thru Mary! She's such a good mother! 😍

To grasp reality, the Catholic faith is only as good as its leader, which is the Pope, not God himself, Jesus Christ. The Pope is now condoning homosexual relationships by agreeing to bless the unholy union of such people. The one and only gift of God is this: The Bible tells us that no man seeks after God. When a person is willing to truly repent of their sins before God, be willing to turn away from them, believe only in the finished work of Jesus Christ the God Man on the cross who paid the penalty for our sins, so by believing only in him and his paying the penalty for their sins, trusting only in him to save them from the penalty of sins which is eternity in Hell, this is being born again, saved by the shed blood of Jesus Christ on the cross. The “True Gift of God” is God the Father giving us the ability to believe and trust in his Son our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and his finished work on the cross for Salvation from our sins penalty “Hell.” The Bible says this!! Jesus speaking: All that the Father gives to me, comes to me, and he that comes to me I will for no reason cast out!! My Father ( God the Father ) who gives them to me is greater than all, and no man ( not even yourself ) is able to pluck them out of my Fathers hand. I ( Jesus ) and My Father ( God the Father ) are one. He that hears my Word ( Jesus Christ ) and believes on him that sent me ( God the Father ) has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation ( Hell ) but is ( presently after being born again ) passed from death unto life.

@@michaelwachira8484 If a person is Bible alone, they would not approve of gay marriage any more than God in God’s Word, the mind of Christ, would approve of gay marriage. God blesses righteousness, not sin. Just as those who say they hate the sin, not the sinner. If a person rebels against God’s laws and statues, they are out of fellowship with God. They are not at a place of blessing, but of chastisement, to bring them back to obedience. Read the Book of Jude. Turning the grace of God into lasciviousness. People go to Hell because of their sin against a Holy God. What you mentioned is like God letting sinners into Heaven because God is not counting their sin as belonging to them. Jesus died for sinful men. The reason a person can go to Heaven is because Jesus Christ became our sin on the cross and paid the penalty for our sins. It is because of our sin that we are excluded from Heaven and go to Hell. So it is not wisdom when you say bless the person not the sin. The sin and the person are one, otherwise no one would be held responsible by God for their sin and everyone God would let into Heaven. When you say man-made Bible sects, that is like an oxymoron. Either your belief is man-made, or you believe in the Word of God who is Jesus Christ. It’s either one or the other. Yes there are some so called Bible preachers out there in the world who are Apostate and have that Spirit of anti-christ. There are ministers of Satan out there appearing as being righteous but they deny that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. They do not believe that Jesus Christ is God!! The only way to know whether a religion or a so called Bible Church is of God is to compare what they say and believe with that of the Bible God’s Word. That is why this verse in the Bible is applicable. Let God be true!! And every man a liar. Nothing that comes from the heart of man is true, this is why the only truth is in God’s Word and this is how we know whether a priest, the Pope, a preacher, is of God or is of Satan. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. God never changes. If all of a sudden a church says or approves something they considered sin in the past, now is ok or acceptable, this is satanic error against God. The Pope now allowing homosexuals to be blessed is blasphemous. Did you know the Pope declares to be the vicar of Christ on earth, infallible? The Bible says this is blasphemy!! Who are you going to believe God or men?

I loved this talk. Easy to listen and undertsand. So many important points and good examples to inspire us on our prayerful way to spritual growth. Also our blessed mother leads us to her son and helps us on our way to truth.

I love my consciousness to be pricked so that i may seek truth and dislodge sinful desires. By the grace of the blessed virgin Mary and all the angels and saints, we can then be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Also notice those struggling to accept and grow in their Catholic faith is because they deny the stings of grace to awaken their desire to purge and change and reject sin and strive for virtue. A weak soul choosing to pamper to every want, rather than build the spritual muscles necessary to surrender and allow God into ones heart to reach perfection in Christ. Yes our heavenly mother knows her children and if given the chance will help us open our hearts and souls to the movements that lead us to know God better. The holy rosary is one of the best tools to use in this growth. Daily prayer is essential in this quest. Start with one Hail Mary and build this up to praying the full rosary each day and then add other pius devotion. God is good and will help you gently along your spritual path by sending his immaculate mother. Burn for the zeal to pray and seek union in your daily prayers and crush the serpents head together with oir heavenly mother in union with her son Jesus Christ. 🙏 ❤😊❤

Wow! I love how Father Josemaria explained the discernment rules of St Ignatius of Loyola. It is a mind-blowing to include the Blessed Mother Mary in the subject. It helps me to understand her better and clearly see her position in my life. I am now getting to become fully aware about the voices of temptation, the inclination of enemy for me to do sin, the unwavering spirits of love, courage, faith and hope to do Mary and her son Jesus Christ's will, the realization of desolation and consolation, and many more.... Thank you sooo much for sharing this beautiful talk. I will keep rewatching this video until the lessons sink in.

Desolation ur right, every word hit me

Very grateful that this much needed topic is spread out: many don't have the blessing of a good ignatian retreat (which i HIGHLY recommend!). the last rule makes you think about how our world has been literally took over by the enemy: people are so lonely, it's so hard to find a good confessor or even a good advice, it's 90% more frequent to get a bad or inaccurate one. Our faith is a faith of saint's communion, God wants us to help each other to get to Heaven. The Church is Christ's body but an agonizing one. Our Lord and our Lady will triumph even if just a single catholic souls could be found, nonetheless.

Father Thank you for this teaching please do more! We need you.

You do realize that for the first 1600 years. Catholics would imprison and execute anyone who owned a Bible or tried to translate it into any other language. They didnt want anyone to know what the Bible said so that they could influence its people however they wanted. Rome was part of the same original church that the orthodox are, and they never had the “traditions of Rosary, purgatory, apparitions.” And they were together for the first 1000 years. Rome changed a lot of the word to fit its agenda

Exactly what I needed, the spiritual life can be a struggleand mystery but this was very helpful instruction. God bless you!

I can relate to this example. The tempations verses the desolations both seeking to distract us from our daily prayer life. Its very helpful to be clear on the enemies tactics so we can identitfy and not fall for them.

The Holy Spirit is the one that convicts our hearts [and the conscience stings it]: 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. 8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 Of sin, because they believe not on me; 10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; 11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. John 16 Genesis 3:15 “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; IT shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” [ the SEED does it, not her ] The 14 rules of discernment as wonderful .

@Badnella - This is from St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuit Order. You can look it up online or at a library or if you’re near any Jesuit schools or universities, you can find it there. After 20+ years I just made contact and just began working with an Ignatian spiritual director.

Who did that painting? 0:21

6:17 wow... totally understand that...

Peace and Goodness, I have a question concerning “doing the will of Our Lady”. I know Jesus is our Lord and Savior, who instructs us to do the will of the Father. No doubt, our Blessed Mothers will, as the perfect disciple, is aligned with that of the Father. But why make that distinction? I do fear it can be confusing to many. Greatly appreciate any clarity you can provide. Blessings.
