July 30, 2026 Reflection – Read Sacred Scripture so that it may be an encouragement for you!

Read Sacred Scripture so that it may be an encouragement for you! July 30, 2026 Dear Family of Mary! Once again, let’s read the July 25, 2026 message! July 25, 2026 Message from Our Lady, Queen of Peace! “Dear children! While darkness and peacelessness rule in many hearts, you, little children, be prayer and my extended hands of love. Little children, place the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your family and read it, so that it may be an encouragement for you to conversion and a new life; because Satan is strong and seduces hearts. Your hearts, through my maternal Heart, I desire to commend to the Heart of my Son Jesus, so that He, the Risen One, may reign in you and joy may begin to reign in you and around you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (With Ecclesiastical approval) Over the years Our Lady has called us to prayerfully read the Sacred Scripture, especially in our families. It is clear that she wants us to realize that we cannot live our faith, if we are not grounded in the Scriptures. Why? Because the world around us wants to capture our imaginations and our hearts in order to lead us away from God. We are in great danger in this world, if our thoughts, our memories, our imaginations, and our desires are not grounded in God. And this can only happen if we take in the inspired words of the Scriptures on a daily basis, in order to give us the truth about ourselves, our lives, our futures, our goals, and our desires. Scripture is the antidote to the world! It wakes us up to God’s plan for our lives and the great good which awaits us in God. Scripture is also the antidote to the lies of Satan. Scripture opens us up to Truth! To amplify the July 25, 2026 message, here are three more messages in which Our Lady calls us to Scripture. Let’s pray over them and allow Our Lady and the Holy Spirit to teach us about Scripture. January 25, 2014 “Dear children! Pray, pray, pray for the radiance of your prayer to have an influence on those whom you meet. Put the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your families and read it, so that the words of peace may begin to flow in your hearts. I am praying with you and for you, little children, that from day to day you may become still more open to God’s will. Thank you for having responded to my call.” June 25, 2024 “Dear children! I rejoice with you and thank God for permitting me to be with you, to lead you and love you. Little children, peace is in danger and the family is under attack. I am calling you, little children: return to prayer in the family. Put Sacred Scripture in a visible place and read it every day. Love God above all that it may be good for you on earth. Thank you for having responded to my call.” Holy Thursday, April 19, 1984 To Jelena: “I’m going to reveal a spiritual secret to you: if you want to be stronger than evil, make yourself a plan of personal prayer. Take a certain time in the morning, read a text from Holy Scripture, anchor the Divine word in your heart, and strive to live it during the day, particularly during the moment of trials. In this way, you will be stronger than evil.” I know we are busy people. It is hard to set time aside for reading the Bible. But if we can manage to do it faithfully for a few days or weeks, we may see the change in our mental health, our emotional strength and vigor, and our spiritual awareness. Let’s give it a try!!

July 29, 2026 Reflection – Place the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your family!

Place the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your family! July 29, 2026 Dear Family of Mary! Once again, let’s read the July 25, 2026 message! July 25, 2026 Message from Our Lady, Queen of Peace! “Dear children! While darkness and peacelessness rule in many hearts, you, little children, be prayer and my extended hands of love. Little children, place the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your family and read it, so that it may be an encouragement for you to conversion and a new life; because Satan is strong and seduces hearts.

Thank you for having responded to my call.” (With Ecclesiastical approval) Today is the Memorial of Saints Martha, Mary, and Lasarus! Two sisters and a brother, all saints and all celebrated on the same day!! I love it!! In her message to us, Our Lady asked us to do this very simple but very important thing: “Little children, place the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your family and read it, so that it may be an encouragement for you to conversion and a new life…” When I read this for the first time, I immediately knew I had to do exactly what she said. So yesterday I found a book holder that I had stored away and put it on a little table in our sitting area, with our favorite Bible displayed on it! I am going to open the Bible to the Gospel reading for each day so we can read it often! I am sure it will be an encouragement for us for conversion and a new life!! Well, today’s Gospel is one of those readings that really do change you! John 11:19-27. Martha greets Jesus, who has come far too late to help Lazarus who has died. But her faith in Jesus is not dimmed in the least. She believes that whatever Jesus asks of the Father will be done!! Here is the Gospel Reading: John 11:19-27 Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother [Lazarus, who had died]. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him; but Mary sat at home. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you.” Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise.” Martha said to him, “I know he will rise, in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and anyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, the one who is coming into the world.” The Gospel of the Lord. All day long, may we say to Jesus, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, the one who is coming into the world.” Martha was truly convinced that Jesus was the Son of God, and this deep faith had changed her completely. We know that Jesus does raise Lazarus from the dead, in a dramatic and public way!! But Martha believed it before she saw it. She is an example for us all! May we believe as Martha believed!! May our faith grow and grow as we meditate on the words of Sacred Scripture. We need this strength in these days!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan Mary TV P.S.
