The Holy Spirit Novena, Day 3
Dear Family of Mary!
Today is Day 3 of our Novena to the Holy Spirit! The Second Reading is from the end of Revelations! It is so powerful! “The Spirit and the bride say, “Come”!! We are the bride! And with the Holy Spirit we say “Come”!! We offer all peoples the gifts we have received. We share Jesus with them!!
Book of Revelation 22:12-14, 16-17, 20
I, John, heard a voice saying to me: “Behold, I am coming soon. I bring with me the recompense I will give to each according to his deeds. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”
Blessed are they who wash their robes so as to have the right to the tree of life and enter the city through its gates.
“I, Jesus, sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, the bright morning star.”
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” Let the hearer say, “Come.” Let the one who thirsts come forward, and the one who wants it receive the gift of life-giving water. The one who gives this testimony says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!
The word of the Lord.
This Reading from the Book of Revelations 22 is a call that flows down through the ages! Our Lady carries on this call through us in our day. Here is one message:
September 25, 2015 “Dear children! Also today I am praying to the Holy Spirit to fill your hearts with a strong faith. Prayer and faith will fill your heart with love and joy and you will be a sign for those who are far from God. Little children, encourage each other to prayer with the heart, so that prayer may fulfill your life; and each day, you, little children, will be, above all, witnesses of serving God in adoration and of your neighbor in need. I am with you and intercede for all of you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
The Spirit and the Bride say “Come!!” (Truly Our Lady is the Bride!! She calls us to help her!) Let we, the hearers, say “Come!” Let the one who thirsts come forward and the one who wants it receive the gift of life-giving water. Amen and Amen!! Come, Lord Jesus!!!
