Directive from Heaven - #470 – War of the Spirits, Part 1 given at to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#470 – War of the Spirits, Part 1

“Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.” – Ephesians 6:11-12

NOW RAGING UPON EARTH
"My children, there is now raging upon earth a battle of the spirits. Every man, woman, and child shall be affected by this war of the spirits. You must go forward now as disciples of My Son, and many saints shall come forth from the great tribulation.
"How many times in My past travels upon earth did I counsel you to avoid the pitfalls that would bring what was to happen in the future upon your present generation? How many listened to My counsel and acted upon it? Too few, My children, too few!
"My children, do not despise prophecy. The Eternal Father has found it necessary to set among you many prophets. They are not prophets of doom nor false prophets. They are prophets appointed by Heaven to guide you in these desperate days.” – Our Lady, September 13, 1978

FOUGHT BY PRAYER
"Life upon your earth is but a vale of tears. Many sorrows are in the hearts of many mothers on the eve of your New Year. I bring you on this day a word of gladness, the words of hope that eventually all tribulation will end and My Son will be victorious. The battle of the spirits will not be fought by visible human means. War with the spirits is fought by prayer, and the direction of the Father.
"There is only one way in which you will lose the road and fall into darkness: when you refuse the graces We have offered you.” – Our Lady, December 31, 1972

THE WAR IS ON
"I am your Mother of Grace. I am the Mediatrix of all graces, and My graces and My Son's graces are to be given freely to all those who will believe. Believe, My children, just believe, and you will be given the way.
"The war is on, the battle of the spirits. You must decide your side. The middle road is non-existent; there is only good or evil. You cannot serve both. . . . [Words not clear] you to make the decision: will you go the easy way and deny Us for the few years that you will have upon your earth?” – Our Lady, December 24, 1971

VICTORY WITH HEAVEN
"My child and My children, We would like to expound joy to all. What is taking place upon earth has saddened all of the hearts of Heaven. However, I give you hope in the knowledge that the eventual victory, after the great battle of the spirits, will be with Heaven.
"My children, I hear all of the cries for messages of cheer and good will. I cannot come to you as your Mother with any false message of present hope. Hope lies now in the battle for the retention of your Faith. Hope lies in prayer, penance, and atonement.” – Our Lady, September 28, 1978

FAR DIRER CONSEQUENCES THAN ANY WAR
"Would you have listened to Us, the man of sin would not have entered your country. You left the door open. Pray that this serpent does not enter your house; for he roams, gathering these souls for Lucifer. We are at war now, but the war of the spirits has far direr consequences than the human beings in worldly war combats.
"My Mother has given the plan for salvation countless times before. Will there only be counted a few in the final total? This will depend on prayer, works, and efforts of love in action demonstrated by all remaining souls on this earth.” – Jesus, May 19, 1971

FEW CAN UNDERSTAND
"My child, I understand full well the suffering of the past days in your life. Even as a voicebox for Heaven, My child, we ask you to make the decision in free will. The mission is becoming difficult for you, but We ask your participation fully, even under attack by satan.
"My child, the object of your new mission is to prevent satan now from killing. It is a war of the spirits that few can understand. But as time goes on it will be understood by all.
"My child, you will shout it from the rooftops that the restraining force has been taken away, and satan now is upon your earth. The prince of darkness, the great deceiver, the man of perdition, is satan, 666 in the body of a human being--a human being that has given himself to satan and is no longer human but a walking dead body encasing the spirit of evilness, satan.” – Our Lady, September 13, 1977

FAR GREATER WAR
"Yes, My child, know that there is a conspiracy to remove My message from among mankind. It grieves Me much to know that so many have hardened their hearts and are blind to the truth.
     "Go forward, My children, with great hope in the knowledge that the eventual victory will be with My Son. We are in the war of the spirits. It is a far greater war than any human war upon your world, for your soul is eternal.
     "My child, it is time that the great message of deceit and error be revealed. The conspiracy of error and deceit will be in the plan of satan and the rulers of darkness to destroy My Son's House and set up a union of one world, one church of God that will be godless!
     "Know now that when the world and your Church on earth become as one, the end is at hand. The gates of hell open wide. They will claim all, even mitres that have given themselves to worldly gain and the destruction of their sheep. The gates of hell shall not prevail against My Son's House!” – Our Lady, July 25, 1974

TRULY A WAR OF THE SPIRITS
"Your world is plunging into a crucible of suffering for mankind. My children, I hear voices crying out for aid, but the voices cry for material aid. My children, understand that We come from Heaven to rescue your souls.
     "Because of the advent of satan, Lucifer and his armies now upon your world, sin shall escalate as sin becomes a way of life for many.
     "O My children, I know that My messages are lengthy, but there is reason why they are extensively given. My visits to mankind shall one day cease with the coming of My Son upon you. However, as your Mother I shall counsel you to My last breath. I shall continue to counsel you if I can rescue, with the help of all of My children, one lost sheep from the abyss. It is truly now a war of the spirits.
     "Many have given themselves over to satan now and have joined his army. O My children, how blind you have become, blinded by your quest for power and riches. They are all of temporal nature. My children, do not sacrifice eternal life in Heaven for a few short years upon your earth. Each and every one of you shall stand for judgment sooner or later.” – Our Lady, June 10, 1978

FINAL BATTLE OF THE SPIRITS
"I tell you, My children, I counseled you for years: The moment is here in the final battle of the spirits. No one shall escape!
"Satan shall be given his time to claim those who have given themselves to him. Among those who have died at the present time, only one came prepared.
"Satan now in the body of the man. He'll roam the country now. He'll set up his covens. Covens, My child, covens they are called. He'll set them up to kill and maim. Beware! Allow none into your house unless you know them well. Guard your doors against the agents of hell, who will come in to wean your children from your house into households of sin.” – Our Lady, August 13, 1977

“THE ETERNAL FATHER HAS PREPARED YOU”
"As in the days of old when My Son sacrificed His Body upon your earth, it is now that He is being recrucified in His Church and in the hearts of mankind.
"O My children, if only I could open, open the world to you and allow you to see what is going to become of you. You who do not listen and follow My direction--I have come to you as a Mediatrix between God and man. I have been sent to you in these days of great trial. It is truly the time of great sorrows.
"You are now living in the days, the latter days, My children, the time of times that have been given to mankind, that have been written down through the ages by your prophets. The Eternal Father has prepared you, My children, for this time. It is truly the battle of the spirits.” – Our Lady, April 17, 1976

“WE ARE NOW AT WAR, MY CHILDREN”
"The forces of hell are loosed upon your earth; 666 and the agents of hell now take full rule in your governments and the governments of the world. My children, recognize the forces of evil as they enter upon you. Demons from hell shall enter into the body of any man, woman, or child who has fallen from grace.
"I have cautioned you, parents, to protect your children. They must not be without a sacramental upon them! We are now at war, My children, a war of the spirits, far greater a war than man has ever experienced in the history of his creation. It is a war to a final battle. The sheep are being separated from the goats, the wheat from the chaff. My children, have you prepared your household for the test?
"Parents will assume the greatest responsibility for keeping Tradition and Faith, the firm foundation of Faith in the hearts of their children. There will be much woe set upon the earth by the evil one. 666, the forces of hell, are now doing full battle against the children of God.” – Our Lady, June 16, 1977

A GLORIOUS BATTLE AHEAD
"Hell, the doors of hell, the gates have been opened wide. Satan is now walking the earth. In spirit he cannot operate in full measure. He must enter into the body of a human being to work his will.
     "O My children, he is the spirit of evil and darkness, and he will debase souls in a manner so vile that no human mind could conceive of the degradation he will promote through human beings. There will be loss of charity of heart, no love of neighbor or family.
     "My children, you ask why this happens. You have promoted this of your own free will, My children. The light has not left the world, but the light of faith is very dim.
     "There are armies now rising throughout the world, armies that My Mother has gathered in My name. I assure you, My children, it will be a glorious battle ahead. All who enter it with good spirit will be given the strength to persevere in this battle of the spirits.” – Jesus, September 28, 1977

FORCES OF GOOD AND EVIL
"Understand now, My child, why the Father allowed man to fall in his human nature. It is a lesson for all. You will now recognize the power of satan among mankind. It is repeated over and over that satan will enter into the body of any man, woman, and child who will fall away from grace, and they will become his chattel to do his bidding. And the greatest bidding that satan has now is for man to stop the prayers!
"Already, recognize the evil that has come forward from stopping the prayers within the last two weeks, My child. Already in Rome, as I gave you in the past, the man called Benelli has come forward to approach the Seat of Peter and to bring upon Rome the full reign of 666 on the Seat of Peter! I beg you, I implore you, as your Mother, to listen! I have warned you now upon your earth; I have come to you as a Mediatrix between God and man, imploring you to listen to My counsel and My direction. The forces of hell are loosed upon your earth now. They try to stop all missions from Heaven. It is the final battle of the spirits; the forces of good and evil now entangle en masse.” – Our Lady, June 4, 1977

A SUPERNATURAL WAR
"My child, Veronica, and My children of the earth, I have come to you with My Mother to bring you a message of great urgency. In the battle of the spirits now progressing upon earth, you must be guided by prayer and the direction of My Mother.
"My children of the earth, you are fast approaching a great War. The gauge that measures the extent of a chastisement upon mankind is carried as a balance for the extremity or the lessening of this chastisement.
"My child, Veronica, and My children, you are already at war: a war of the spirits, the supernatural. However, because many have failed to listen to the counsel of My Mother, you are fast approaching a war far greater and more destructive than mankind has ever experienced in the past. And without the counsel from Heaven being adhered to, the directions strictly followed, many will die upon earth, and nations shall disappear from the face of your earth.” – Jesus, December 24, 1979

A BATTLEGROUND OF THE SPIRITS
"The world has now become a battleground of the spirits. You must not become engrossed in inconsequential, minor matters involving your salvation, My children. I refer to the separation of your brothers and sisters from My Son's Church, as they are misled. They are misled because it is not the plan of the Eternal Father to have a schism, a breaking away from My Son's Church.” – Our Lady, March 18, 1976

“ONE WHO WILL GUIDE DURING THIS BATTLE”
"Yes, My child, the Message from Heaven has reached the Eternal City of Rome. You will not know until the end of time the full plan of the Eternal Father. In a war, My child, a war of human nature as well as the battle of the spirits, there is One Who will guide during this battle. The Eternal Father in Heaven knows the plan of all. In your human nature, you must not question, but you must receive, accept, and not question the direction of the Eternal Father to you.
"Do not be ashamed, My children, to shed tears with My Son. Weep with Him; pray with Him; please, make Him happy. All who have received much, much is expected of them.” – Our Lady, March 18, 1976

“ACT UPON HER COUNSEL, OR YOU WILL FALL!”
"My child, you will continue to send the Message from Heaven throughout your world. Do not be slackened in your mission by the opinion of man. You must understand, My child and My children, that you will meet with great opposition, for you are now engaged in a war of the spirits. The very forces of hell are out to stop you in your mission. Understand that your road will be filled with thorns. It is truly the way of the cross.
"My children, My Mother has come to you as a Mediatrix between God and man. My Mother has directed you well. You will now act upon Her counsel, or you will fall!” – Jesus, December 28, 1976

A WAR FAR GREATER
"My children, We hear all manner of rationalizing of sin and error. There shall not be an excuse of rationalization for sin given as you stand, O shepherds, before My Son and He gives you your just reward.
"There will be many prodigies given upon the earth and in the air. Test the spirits, My children, for it is truly now a war of the spirits, a war far greater than man has ever passed through.
"Children of the light, light bearers, you must go forward now with perseverance and confidence. Never slacken in your pace of sending the Message from Heaven throughout the world. When you become despondent or grieved, you will say, My Jesus, my confidence! My Jesus, my confidence!” – Our Lady, July 15, 1977

RECOGNIZE AND ACCEPT THE FACT
"You cannot understand, My children, in your human nature the manner in which this battle of the spirits rage. You cannot fight them now with human means, but you must recognize and accept the fact that there exists now in your world an army of demons loosed from hell, led by Lucifer. Their intent is to darken the minds of the clergy and darken the souls of all mankind, that they may then lose the Kingdom of the Eternal Father in Heaven. And Lucifer will complete his plan, in the short time left to subdue mankind, and take with him into hell, his kingdom, all of the souls that have fallen away from the narrow road that leads to the Kingdom of happiness, the Kingdom of Heaven.
"No one--no man, woman, or child--shall fall into hell unless he goes there of his own free will.” – Our Lady, October 6, 1979

A GREAT DELUSION
"A great delusion has entered upon mankind. The forces of 666 are gathering. They are in your country and in every major country in your world now.
"Remember, My children, do not waste your time looking for one individual man. The man of perdition spoken and written of in the past is a general term. It is not one man, but it is a massing of the spirits. You are truly now engaged in a great war of the spirits. It is a war far more deadly than human promotes. It is a war that will claim the souls.
"My children, recognize the evil about you. Mr. 666, the man of perdition--a general term, My children, I repeat--they are the forces of evil now that are working towards the elimination of the knowledge of the existence of your God. My Son's House, His Church, is under great attack by satan. Hell and the forces of hell are loosed upon earth, but they shall not prevail against My Son's Church.” – Our Lady, June 12, 1976

A WAR OF GREATER IMPORTANCE
"Now there is a war of greater importance to your human nature than the war being fought between brothers and sisters, for now you are in the war of the spirits. Satan will promote a great war. The enemy of God and of your country is now firmly entrenched. This condition you brought about by your own negligence and by your loss of respect and love for your God, setting up man as a being to worship.
"As he sows, each individual shall receive what he has sown. Prepare yourselves well, My children, for the days ahead. Your armor has been given to you. My words have come to you often. I have prepared you well if you have listened and opened your hearts to Me." – Jesus, April 1, 1972

“THEY ARE REAL, THEY ARE LIVING”
"Unless the parents teach their children of the existence of this other world unseen to the human eye, the children cannot then be protected from the attacks of these agents from hell. My child, they are real, they are living, and they have great power. They, too, possess names as do the high angels in the Kingdom of your God in Heaven.
"It is truly, My children, a war of the spirits. It is a time for the separation of the sheep from the goats. You are all now being tested, and if you fail you shall receive the mark of the beast. And if you pass through this crucible, you shall emerge with the sign of the living God upon your forehead, recognizable to all who are your brothers in the light." – Our Lady, March 15, 1978

FIFTH COLUMN
"There is, My children, a great conspiracy of evil now throughout your world--the forces, the columns of evil. Man has given them many names--the fifth column. They have been broken up into political parties, including communism. O My children, they are but small arms of the octopus, the gigantic conspiracy of evil that will unite your world and My Son's Church under the rule of despots!
"There is in Rome, My children, a great struggle for power, a political machine controlled by satan. There shall be a war of the spirits. It shall be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal.
"I repeat, My children, as I have told you in the past, that the great Council of Vatican II was manipulated by satan. He sat there among you and he worked you like a chessboard.” – Our Lady, May 15, 1976
