Mary, the Ark of the Covenant!

 

August 9, 2023

Dear Family of Mary!

Day 4 of our preparation for the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary!

Pope Benedict XVI wrote:

4. “Mary is the Ark of the Covenant because she welcomed Jesus within her; she welcomed within her the living Word, the whole content of God’s will, of God’s truth; she welcomed within her the One who is the new and eternal Covenant, which culminated in the offering of his Body and his Blood: a body and blood received through Mary. Therefore Christian piety rightly turns to Our Lady in the litanies in her honour, invoking her as Foederis Arca, that is, “the Ark of the Covenant”, the Ark of God’s presence, the Ark of the Covenant of love which God desired to establish with the whole of humanity, in Christ, once and for all.”

Our Lady is the Ark! She carried the Son of God in her womb, nourished Him, protected Him, gave Him birth, and raised Him. She faithfully and generously laid her life down for Jesus. And so the Father called her to be at her Son’s side in Heaven, body and soul, to continue her role as Mother. She is there to intercede with Jesus, for all her other children! Us!!

She has told us:

May 2, 2019 ”
Dear children,
With a motherly love I am calling you
to respond to the great love of my Son,
with pure and open hearts,
with complete trust.

I know the greatness of His love.

I carried Him within me,
the Host in the heart,
the light and the love of the world.

My children, also my addressing you
is a sign of the love and tenderness of the Heavenly Father –
a big smile filled with the love of my Son,
a call to eternal life.

Out of love, the Blood of my Son was shed for you.
That Precious Blood is for your salvation, for eternal life.

The Heavenly Father created man for eternal happiness.
It is not possible for you who know the love of my Son
and who follow Him, to die.

Life triumphed; my Son is alive.

Therefore, my children, apostles of my love,
may prayer show you the way
and the means of spreading the love of my Son –
prayer in the most exalted form.

My children,
also when you strive to live the words of my Son,
you are praying.

When you love the people whom you meet,
you are spreading the love of my Son.

It is love that opens the doors of Paradise.

My children, from the beginning,
I prayed for the Church.

Therefore, I am also calling you,
apostles of my love,
to pray for the Church and her servants –
for those whom my Son called.

Thank you.”

Our Lady shares that intimate detail, that overwhelming miracle! She carried the Son of God in her womb. Jesus has her DNA! Our Lady is the Mother of God!! As Pope Benedict said: she welcomed within her the One who is the new and eternal Covenant, which culminated in the offering of his Body and his Blood: a body and blood received through Mary. May we never stop thanking Our Lady for the gift of Her Son!! May we, throughout eternity honor her as the Ark!

Let us pray:
Mother Mary, your Assumption into Heaven did not take you away from us, but rather opened the way for you to draw close to each one of us and mother us with your incredible love. You are here with us today. We want to draw very close to you, and to be guided by you in everything. Mother please make us presentable, and then present us to your Son, that we might live with Him and You in Heaven forever!

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

“Dear children, my real, living presence among you should make you happy because this is the great love of my Son. He is sending me among you so that, with a motherly love, I may grant you safety!”

Our Lady of Medjugorje – July 2, 2016

“Rejoice, little children, because God is merciful and loves you all with His immeasurable love and leads you to the way of salvation through my coming here!”

Our Lady Speaks

Vicka's Note MaryTV

Vicka, one of the visionaries in Medjugorje, wrote the note (above) after Our Lady spoke with her during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about Mary TV’s  plan to build a television facility in Medjugorje.

Vicka wrote to Denis: “Our Lady says that the plan is good – but you need to wait a little.  Now you can get prepared little by little, until Our Lady tells when the right moment is.  You don’t need to hurry, make haste, but to be patient.”

When Our Lady said this to Vicka, the technical genius in Medjugorje that she had her eyes upon, who would begin Mary TV’s live streaming from Medjugorje, was seven years old.

Totus Tuus (Totally Yours)

Immaculate Conception, Mary my Mother, Live in me, Act in me, Speak in me and through me, Think your thoughts in my mind, Love through my heart, Give me your dispositions and feelings, Teach, lead me and guide me to Jesus, Correct, enlighten and expand my thoughts and behavior, Possess my soul, Take over my entire personality and life, replace it with Yourself, Incline me to constant adoration, Pray in me and through me, Let me live in you and keep me in this union always.

Our Lady gave this prayer 25 years before She started appearing in Medjugorje. This prayer is being answered through Our Lady’s presence in Medjugorje and through Her messages. Mother Immaculata writes: “This is Mary’s hour and She is about to crush Satan’s head. Her very being is like incandescent heat in the center of the Trinity and the manifestation of Her power is growing daily. The Immaculate Conception prayer (which is what Our Lady called the prayer she gave me for union with Her) has been used by exorcists who have told me that the devil reacts violently to it and is subdued by it. We are praying daily for the success of Mary TV!“

Our Lady Gives A Sign…

Mary_with_Sun

MARY TV was LIVE STREAMING Ivan’s May 24, 2013 apparition on Mt. Podbrdo (Apparition Hill) in Medjugorje. My wife, Cathy, was praying in front of her computer in the US, connected through the Internet, welcoming Our Lady along with everyone gathered on the mountain. She couldn’t see anything on her computer screen because it was late at night and Ivan had said, “No lights.” She found herself asking Our Lady for a sign – a little light – as a sign that MARY TV was on the right track and really serving her. Just after the apparition, when she went to give an account on Mary TV’s Facebook page, the page opened with this picture that she had never seen before, captioned: “MARY APPEARS OVER BUILDING IN MEDJUGORJE, PHOTO TAKEN BY PILGRIM.” Our Lady is standing directly over MARY TV’s studios, her feet right where we have two POV cameras STREAMING 24/7 LIVE TO THE WORLD Apparition Hill & Cross Mountain!

ASK JESUS IF HE’D LIKE YOU TO START SENDING A MONTHLY DONATION TO MARY TV.
TO CONTINUE SAILING WITH OUR LADY UPON THE DIGITAL SEA THIS BOAT NEEDS FINANCIAL HELP.

Our Lady spoke to Vicka during an apparition in Medjugorje in April, 1999, about the importance of Mary TV’s mission. At that time she told Vicka that she herself (Our Lady) would begin Mary TV! She did! But she didn’t do it alone. The generosity of her children made Mary TV a reality for her. Your generosity is needed now for it to continue!
