MESSAGE TRANSCRIPT

Hello brothers and sisters and Youtube family. Hope you guys are being blessed.

I hope you guys enjoyed the 8 series audio book about the Life of Mary. It was fascinating learning also about St. Jospeh and what a humble soul he was. What reverence and honor he showed Blessed Mother. It was also beautiful how they both desired to be live in Chasity for the Lord and even being the Parents of God how they both abandoned themselves to poverty as the Lord willed that for them. It gives anyone a fresh perspective into scripture and truly how to live in the light of the true gospels not what man have interpreted as the way of life.

I loved the most insight into how powerful Mary’s role was to Jesus as his mother and his intercessor. He was the first model of a Pastor/Shepherd who had an intercessor backing up his ministry and it was his Mother. I was amazed how he took her to several places with him before his public ministry and had her praying for the peoples heart and even those he had conversations with. She stood right next to Jesus and just simply prayed as he spoke. Amazing, Mary truly is the Intercessor!

Then I loved how in her humility she always deflected the attention off of herself. It was such a surprise to me when it was revealed about these two popular scriptures most protestants use to denounce her role because they think Jesus denounced her. IN MATTHEW 12: 47-49 Someone told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you." He replied to him, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?" Pointing to his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers. I was amazed that Blessed Mother was coming to provide Jesus food because she knew he hadn’t eaten and asked someone to get his attention. When the Pharisee spoke up to tell Jesus Mary was there she immediately said in her heart to Him please revert the attention off of me because she Knew everyone would then look to see “who was Jesus mother”. So He made that statement that no one would bother to look her way and he gave the food to the disciples to eat instead. Amazing her humility and her desire for Jesus to continuously get the glory.

She did it again when in scripture it referenced to Luke 11: 27 As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, "Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you." Which was said by a women who admired her and the Holy women during one of Jesus’s teachings she asked Jesus the same thing in her heart to please divert the attention off of her and in such meekness Jesus listened again to her request and made this comment instead Luke 11:28 He replied, "Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it." Amazing! Her humility is one to be admired and most importantly Jesus’s adhering to her every request no matter how small shows the power of her request on your behalf and Jesus love for her! I pray the series blessed you and would love to hear testimonies from anyone who was touched by the audio book and received a deeper understanding of who Mary is us. Please share in the comments below

Many people had asked me prior to putting up this series about how to approach Mary in the Rosary. Some found it hard to pray a prayer which seemed repetitious therefore it was very dry for them and they preferred rather to just talk to her instead. Others didn’t know when to pray to Jesus and when to seek Mary for intercession. Lastly many want a relationship with her, but just don’t know where to start. So I would like to share some suggestions that Jesus gave me himself and also directions I took inspired by the Holy Spirit that led me into a deeper relationship with My “Mama”.

First concerning the rosary, the enemy would like you to think its a prayer of vain repetition Matthew 6:7 but the meaning of vain is “useless”. The rosary is not at all useless and as one scholar put it its simply meditating on the Gospels. Its praying the gospels everyday have you ever thought of it that way. Each mystery focuses on an area of Jesus life in the gospels and has you meditate on it but not just on Jesus but from Mary’s perspective. Jesus told me too “meet Mary in the rosary”. You see prayer is a conversation with you and God. The rosary is a conversation with you and Mary. When I began praying the rosary. I would use online videos to pray along side with them. However, some said the prayers fast so I began rushing through them rather than meditating on what I was saying and praying. So I found one that really was meditative and and when Jesus told me to meet her there I began using my sanctified imagination placing myself in each mystery in the Gospels with Mary during Jesus time. I will have a link to the online rosary video I used in the description

I love all the mysteries but the Joyful mystery is when I experienced her the greatest because that meditation focuses on the annunciation. When Mary was given word by Gabriel and on Jesus’s birth among others. So I began to do what Jesus asked, meeting her there. The first mystery is when Gabriel tells Mary she is to be with child by the Holy Spirit, Luke 1:26-38. So in this meditation I imagined myself as a fly on the wall literally. Watching the most amazing event that impacted history. I imagined what Blessed Mother was wearing as she kneeled quietly praying I saw then a great bright light enter the room and there was Gabriel in all of his beauty and glory speaking to her. Then I imagined her in awe and repeating the words in scripture then a bright light enter her womb as a cascade of red flowers fell from heaven unto Blessed Mother for her saying “yes” to being the Mother of God.

The next mystery is her visitation with Elizabeth Luke 1:39-46. I then imagined myself as one of Elizabeth young servant girls. Blessed Mother walked in the house and I could not take my eyes off of her. There was something about her I was drawn too I wasn’t sure what but I wanted to be with her and serve her everywhere she went. When finally she was leaving to go back to Joseph I had prayed in my heart that I so badly wanted to go with her so I put all the things I had in a knapsack prepared that if Elizabeth asked one of her servants to go, hoping it was me, I would be ready. So I waited in the kitchen as I heard Elizabeth speaking with Mary that she indeed wanted to have one of her servant girls help serve Mary. She then called my name I was so excited and came out of the kitchen holding my knapsack in the air ready. When they all saw me everyone bust out laughing at my simplicity and readiness to go so I went with her.

The next mystery is about the nativity Luke 2:1-21, I then imagined myself with Mary and Joseph on this long trip to the cave after several stops where no one would let us in. Jospeh was tired but excited about the birth of the Messiah. When Mary was due to have Jesus she wanted privacy so I went to fetch water as Joseph was out gathering items for a fire. When I came back with the water I saw a huge light that blinded the whole cave and there before me was Blessed Mother holding Jesus. I was in tears as I fell on my knees in reverence and when Joseph came he too was in tears as Mary let me hold baby Jesus in my arms.

The fourth mystery is about the purification Luke 2:22-39. There I helped carry the doves they were going to use for the sacrifice. I stayed closed to Mary watching her every movement and emotion. So regal yet so peaceful and gentle I noticed her countenance change when Simeon gave her the prophecy and I didn’t understand what it meant but it seemed grave.

Then the last mystery was finding Jesus at the temple where I imagined myself with Mary and Joseph frantically searching for Jesus. I had grown up a bit I was in my 20’s and Jesus was still and adolescent. I too was in tears calling out trying to find where Jesus could’ve have gone. When we finally reached the temple I let Mary and Joseph go in first and when they found Jesus I was so relived as they exchanged words. Jesus then hugged Mary then the adolescent Jesus came to hug me so tightly because he knew I too was worried and crying for him. Then we all went back home relieved and in awe at the manifestation of God in the adolescent Jesus.

You see that is what praying the rosary for me is like. I don’t alway have these experiences all the time however, I began in this way by putting myself in every mystery of the Gospel as if I was there and part of the family. Then Holy Spirit takes over and so does Blessed Mother. She may began to give you ideas, inspiration or council whiles your praying don’t let this be a distraction. It may not be anything that is on your mind, but she is speaking to you about a certain situation, or someone or something she desires for you to do. Many of my inspirations have come when I began to pray the rosary. So I would heed her direction and discern that it was Blessed Mother guiding me.

Secondly, Jesus has made it clear that he wants us to not only go to Mary, but to entrust our heart to her. What does entrust mean? It means to give charge over or give responsibilty too, so Jesus has given responsibility to Mary over our hearts just as he gave responsibility of John to her and all the disciples. That means you can go to her about any and everything. Jesus once told me in one of the messages he actually prefers me going to her first because she knows His perfect will. Even in scripture all the Holy women where in Mary’s care in Luke 8:1-3. “Soon afterward he went on through cities and villages, proclaiming and bringing the good news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him, and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's household manager, and Susanna, and many others, who provided for them out of their means”.

Furthermore, just in the wedding of Cana when the couple were out of wine they came to tell Mary not Jesus and she went to Jesus and told him the dilemma. You see you can talk to Blessed Mother about any situation, circumstance and especially when you feel ashamed. Mary is the refuge of all sinners and when your feeling at your worst she comes with a Mothers love that will never deny you, judge you, or turn you away. She embraces you, comforts you, and puts you right in her sons arms where you belong.

Lastly coming from a protestant background we are so used to addressing Jesus directly which is very good however, when praying the rosary your talking to Blessed Mother as I have mentioned. So offer every prayer intention and petition to her before you began or whiles you pray each decade which is the (10) Hail Mary’s. You can lay all your prayers before her. Ask her for Gods will to be done and for her to help you in whatever you need. You can lift up others and unite them to her immaculate heart. That is one of my favorite prayers because every soul you unite to Blessed Mothers Immaculate heart will receive salvation and conversion. So bring all you’re lost family members, those who are broken, wounded, sick and leave them in her heart. She will take care of them whether they believe in her intercession or not. It is your faith in bringing them to your Mother that they will be helped. Every rosary you pray is 53 answered prayers! If you were to pray all the mysteries each day that is 212 answered prayers every day! That is how wonderful and powerful praying the rosary is. So take your time when you pray this meditation. Don’t rush through it, but truly meet Mary, our Mother in the rosary there. She awaits you, to take you through the stations of Jesus life from her perspective. Giving you the grace to contemplate him through her eyes and helping you, healing you, and strengthening you all at the same time.

I would like to end with some great books that helped to really draw closer to Blessed Mother. One our Mother recommended to me herself which you guys heard in the series is called “ The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary” by Anne Catherine Emmeirch and one of my favorite “Imitation of Mary by Thomas Kempis which I encouraged every believer to purchase. It such a great book on how to imitate Christ like Mary Imitated him. She gives her council, wisdom and exhortation to every believer how to walk in the way of Christ. I use this at least every other day or once a week to do a sanctifying rosary. Which is simply using the book as a reference and meditation rather than the mysteries of the Gospel. Once you get to each decade which is the (10) hail Mary’s you ask Blessed Mother to show you what you need to work on then pray over the book and open it You can do the sign of the cross to bless the book and then open it. Then read the chapter she gives you and when you began to pray the decade ask her for the graces necessary to obtain what she told you in the book. So in one rosary you would get 5 readings from the book of instructions from her. It has helped me so much and she has used that to warn me so many times of trials coming and how to endure them for love of Jesus. Please purchase that book online its roughly $5-$13 without shipping.

The next video I will have up I will be sharing with you a song cover from a new worship single called “ City of God” in which I do a rendition to Blessed Mother hope you guys enjoy it!

I hope the teachings, the series and the message From Jesus and blessed Mother have helped you and encouraged many to cultivate a wonderful relationship with her, your Mother.

Love you guys God bless you until the next message.
