Be at peace, pray at all times, the light of my Son be upon you and in you

Praise and Intercession Night 16 December 2014

Picture of the Holy Family in Bethlehem and it seemed as though all of Heaven had come to meet in that humble dwelling. The light from the baby Jesus was around every person, all the angels, Patriarchs, Martyrs and Apostles seemed to exude the Holy Spirit dwelling in the Son of God.
There were also the shepherds representing the Jewish nation, the first call on the Father's Heart, and then the Wise Men representing all gentile nations.

Our Blessed Mother picked up her Son and motioned with her hand to the empty manger and said
"Place all heartfelt prayers of petition within my Son's manger. All sorrows within families, all sorrows within Church families, all sorrows between nations, all grief , all loneliness, all sickness. My Son shall rest his light upon them."

Then Our Mother placed her baby Son on top of the petitions and everyone was touched in their hearts and adored Him. Our Mother lifted Him up and in place of all the petitions was a white garment a prayer shawl in which she wrapped Him. She said
"Be at peace, pray at all times, the light of my Son be upon you and in you. Your Mother"

Picture of Jesus on a white horse leading an army of light. They have no armour.
Against them is an army of darkness that is fully armoured. As the army of light attacks the armour of the dark forces melts away, it falters and many begin to run away. The light defeats the darkness.


I John 4 v18
In love there is no room for fear, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear implies punishment and no one who is afraid has come to perfection in love.

Romans 5 v 20
Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound


Psalm 33
1 Shout for joy, you upright; praise comes well from the honest.
2 Give thanks to Yahweh on the lyre, play for him on the ten-stringed lyre.
3 Sing to him a new song, make sweet music for your cry of victory.
4 The word of Yahweh is straightforward, all he does springs from his constancy.
5 He loves uprightness and justice; the faithful love of Yahweh fills the earth.
6 By the word of Yahweh the heavens were made, by the breath of his mouth all their array.
7 He collects the waters of the sea like a dam, he stores away the abyss in his treasure-house.
8 Let the whole earth fear Yahweh, let all who dwell in the world revere him;
9 for, the moment he spoke, it was so, no sooner had he commanded, than there it stood!
10 Yahweh thwarts the plans of nations, frustrates the counsels of peoples;
11 but Yahweh's own plan stands firm for ever, his heart's counsel from age to age.
12 How blessed the nation whose God is Yahweh, the people he has chosen as his heritage.
13 From heaven Yahweh looks down, he sees all the children of Adam,
14 from the place where he sits he watches all who dwell on the earth;
15 he alone moulds their hearts, he understands all they do.
16 A large army will not keep a king safe, nor his strength save a warrior's life;
17 it is delusion to rely on a horse for safety, for all its power it cannot save.
18 But see how Yahweh watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his faithful love,
19 to rescue them from death and keep them alive in famine.
20 We are waiting for Yahweh; he is our help and our shield,
21 for in him our heart rejoices, in his holy name we trust.
22 Yahweh, let your faithful love rest on us, as our hope has rested in you.


The Lord is my refuge and stronghold

Love, Faith, Hope, Joy and Peace

Notes of meeting on 9 November

Luke 17:6 (New International Version)

6 He replied, “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.


A picture of Our Lady at the Annunciation where in faith she said "yes" to becoming the Mother of Jesus the Son of God. At His birth she looked on Him in love, wonder and awe.
We too can have this faith, the wonder, this awe or fear of the Lord. If like her we believe in his word we will grow in grace and promise as he did. If we thank him and praise him all things will be revealed and the light of faith in us will stir up men's hearts and draw them to the Heart of Jesus and his Blessed Mother.
The picture then moved to reveal a jewelled crown and the main jewels in the front were LOVE FAITH HOPE JOY. On the base of the crown was Theotokos, all these gifts are here for us in the group if we only open our minds and allow the Spirit to work in us. We cannot earn this crown because it is freely given. We need faith to grasp it and move with the Holy Spirit


Notes of meeting on 16 November

Again a picture of a crown with the four jewels of LOVE FAITH HOPE JOY and again on the base Theotokos. this time there was a cross piece on top saying PEACE.
Our Lady had her arms outstretched and was extending the crown over us inviting us to take it and put it on. When we put it on it will act much like a helmet of protection like that in Ephesians - the Helmet of Salvation.
This crown is a gift and no matter what befalls us as a group and individually we will be at peace. Our minds will be protected from the arrows and games of the evil one,Satan. This crown will be custom made for each one of us and will help us in our work for Our Blessed Mother and her Son Jesus. Our hearts and minds will be so at peace we will be able to do the Father's will and intercede for mankind. Our Mother was smiling and happy as each one took it and placed it upon our heads because we were willing to be instruments for Jesus. Mary and Jesus will never leave us in this mission, for this mission is to help win souls from the darkness into the Glorious Light and even though Satan will try to test us we will stand firm with Jesus at our side.
"Be at Peace"

Baruch 5 (Good News Translation)

Baruch 5
1 Jerusalem, take off the clothes you have worn in your mourning and distress, and put on the eternal splendor of God's glory.2 Put around you the cloak of God's righteousness. Place on your head the crown of the glory of the Eternal God.3 God will show your splendor to every nation on earth.4 Forever he will say to you:Your security comes from your righteousness, and your splendour from your devotion to me.
5 Get up, Jerusalem, stand on the mountaintop; see where God, the Holy One, is bringing your children together from the east and from the west. They are rejoicing that God has remembered them.6 Jerusalem, your children were led away by their enemies; they left you on foot, but God is bringing them back to you, carried in royal splendor.7 God has commanded that every high mountain and the everlasting hills shall be made low; he has commanded that the valleys shall be filled and the ground leveled, so that the people of Israel may come safely home in the glory of God.8 At the command of God, forests of fragrant trees will spring up to provide shade for the people of Israel.9 God will lead Israel home. They will return with great joy, guided by his mercy and righteousness, surrounded by the light of his glorious presence.



John 14 v 27
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.


Romans 13 v 8
Love Fulfills the Law
8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. 9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,”and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbour as yourself.”10 Love does no harm to a neighbour. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

Be at peace

Notes of meeting on 20 April 2010

Be at peace, let my peace be with you.
Be close to me, follow my path.
You are my followers, my disciples, my chosen ones

Luke 10 v 17 - 24

17 The seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!" 18 And he said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven." 21 In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will. 22 All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him." 23 Then turning to the disciples he said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see! 24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it."
