Directive from Heaven #114 - Penance and Sacrifice, Part 2 - given to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#114 - Penance and Sacrifice, Part 2

“The sacrifice of the just is acceptable, and the Lord will not forget the memorial thereof.” - Ecclesiasticus 35:9

FULL MEANING OF LOVE
"Prayer, the power of prayer cannot be understood fully by mankind. And prayer also commands sacrifice and atonement, and love. But so few know the true meaning of love. Love is in giving. Love is in caring. But love above all is God, your God. For no man knows the full meaning of love until he has reached out and become a man of God, a true child of the light; for then he will also be a keeper of the eternal flame, the Holy Spirit." - Jesus, June 18, 1981

A WISE SOUL
"A wise soul knows the true meaning of saving. Prayer, sacrifice, atonement are your measure for recovery. There is much talk going upon the winds, talk which is destructive and not constructive. This We find in the holy House of God. Better they turn now, go down on their knees, and beg forgiveness for their offenses against their God. Rank shall not spare the wicked. Remember Luciel: he was cast from the eternal Kingdom. All who turn their backs on the commands of the Eternal Father will join Luciel in his dark world." - Our Lady, October 6, 1972

FORGOTTEN
"My children, hell and purgatory-forgotten! My Son's death upon the cross-forgotten, as you happily raise your voices, call Him Savior, and think all are saved without penance, atonement, and sacrifice! Shall you sin and be always forgiven without penance? No, I say to you! Only a few will be saved. Many are called, but few are chosen." - Our Lady, April 9, 1977

SIMPLE OF HEART
"If you will follow My way, My children, you will pick up your cross and follow Me. The road to Heaven is not an easy road: it is a road of penance, atonement, and sacrifice, casting aside the worldly inducements created by Lucifer. It is a simple way, a way in which a man must bring his heart back to the realm of childhood, for he must be simple of heart and trusting as a child." - Jesus, February 10, 1978

DELUSION
"As in the past, rejection has been the start of a fallen man. Sin has become a way of life with many. You live in a delusion if you believe that you can offend the Eternal Father and then gain eternal life in the Kingdom. No, I say to you: many are called, but few are chosen.
"Ask and you shall receive, believe and you will be given the way. But you must merit the Kingdom. Your birthright was a start, but you must make your way to the Kingdom. Others may gain these graces for you by prayer and acts of sacrifice, but you will accept or reject the key." - Jesus, May 26, 1976

MARTYRDOM
"Many shall be asked to sacrifice this body, My children, in the days ahead; but it is a fast and glorious trip over the veil, My children." - Jesus, May 13, 1978

RUSSIA
"I have asked you many times to pray for the conversion of the nation Russia. Unless there are more prayers and acts of sacrifice, Russia shall send her errors throughout the world, causing great suffering and loss of Faith." - Our Lady, August 5, 1975

CHARITY
"I have a simple lesson to give to all mankind at this time, My child. It is, as We know, charity among mankind. All works and all acts of sacrifice, have they a value when they are not covered by charity? And what is charity, My children? When you come across lives that have been darkened by sin and evil, you must not become smug; you must not feel secure in your own piety and graces given to you, but you must feel a sadness of heart for those who have fallen into the darkness. You must not judge, for the Eternal Father has the only key to an individual heart." - Our Lady, March 18, 1976

"WHAT GREAT REWARD"
"My final word, My child-though My words shall not be ended until I join with My Son in gathering you all to My bosom-know this: prayer and atonement, sacrifice-what great reward lies ahead for those who will listen to the plan from Heaven!" - Our Lady, February 10, 1974

"WE URGENTLY BEG YOU"
"We will continue to guide you in the dark days ahead. We urgently beg you for acts of penance, atonement, sacrifice-daily. This will be all that can hold back the darkness." - Our Lady, May 19, 1971

THIRST FOR SOULS
"The sorrows are before you. Yes, I know why you cry, My child; for you, too, know Our anguish. Our Theresa placed the road before you, bringing with her the love of souls, the thirst for souls. And now you must share with us the torment of knowledge of how many will be lost. Prayer and sacrifice alone can recover them. This I say to all My children: without your prayers and sacrifices, many will be lost." - Our Lady, November 21, 1970

TURNED AWAY IN MOCKERY
"Pray much, My children, for you do not know what lies before you. Prayer, atonement, and sacrifice! I have wandered throughout your world shedding tears, bitter tears of sorrow upon My children who have failed to listen to My pleas. I have come to save you from what you have led yourselves to-your own destruction. I have given you the plan for your salvation. I have set Myself as victim for you before the Father, begging an extension of time for your repatriation. Many We have reached, but many have turned away in mockery, and have hardened their hearts and deafened their ears to Our pleas. All Heaven will watch the battle ahead. Many will die in the great flame of the Ball of Redemption." - Our Lady, December 24, 1973

"I WOULD BE WILLING"
"I would be willing, as your Mother, to wash you in My blood for your salvation. My Son washed you in His Blood for your salvation. Are there not enough among you to make penance, do penance and sacrifice for your brothers?" - Our Lady, May 17, 1975

THE SUPERNATURAL
"Do not be misguided by those who, in the spirit of darkness, take the knowledge of the supernatural from you. Yes, in order, My children, to stay in the light, you will be rejected by many. You will be scorned; you will be called insane, because, I repeat: there is nothing in common between the light and the darkness. As they rejected Me upon your earth, you, too, must go the way of the cross. But carry your cross, My children, with purpose and fortitude. And I assure you, as your God, that the road you follow in the light will be well worth your perseverance. The joys of Heaven are for all, but all do not attain this height, My children, for they are not willing to sacrifice and do penance and to follow the way of the cross." - Jesus, November 1, 1976

REALITY
"Prayer, atonement, sacrifice: is this too much to ask of you in the face of what you will soon find coming upon you? I do not come to earth to fill hearts with fear, but I bring reality of what is to befall an unrepentant generation.
"There are many throughout the world, your world, that will be given a test. This is a test of faith and love; for many will be asked to give themselves to the Father as victim souls, victims to the merciful heart and love of the Father in repatriation for those souls who offend most the Father." - Our Lady, June 8, 1973

BY THE SACRIFICE OF OTHERS
"My children, all who have received the grace to hear and accept My Mother's Mission from Heaven must now go forward as disciples of these latter days. You must counsel all within hearing of the coming Chastisement. No man, woman, or child shall be lost unless it is of his wish, his will. We cannot force you into the Kingdom of Heaven. It must be a desire of the heart. However, many of good charity and love have offered their prayers and sacrifices for your repatriation. As such, many can enter Heaven, not on their own full merit but by the sacrifice of others who care." - Jesus, August 19, 1978

"HELL IS OPEN WIDE"
"Hell is open wide; the abyss is filling continuously with souls that have fallen into darkness. Will you not rescue them, My children, with your acts of sacrifice and prayer?
"The Message from Heaven is growing and growing, My children. There is great hope in Our heart that We can put off for a time the great Chastisement." - Our Lady, December 6, 1975

GREATEST WEAPON
"The greatest weapon you will have, My child, is prayer, a constant vigilance of prayer throughout your world and your country. You will go forward, My child and My children, protected by My blue mantle, a covering of light, with the cross of My Son in your right hand and the beads of prayer in your left. For in your hands, then, you will hold the greatest weapon in this war of the spirits. Prayer, atonement, and sacrifice, My children. The balance is heavily now to the left. Watch and pray much. The hourglass is running low." - Our Lady, July 25, 1974

WITHOUT YOUR GRACE . . .
"Do not be concerned of your body discomfort in the days ahead, all who seek to bring the message to mankind, the Message from Heaven. Sacrifice, My children; do penance for your brothers and sisters. Without your grace, your application of abundance of graces to them, many will be lost. Many will die in the great flame of the Ball of Redemption." - Our Lady, July 24, 1976

BLOODBATH OF FIRE
"My children, you are fast proceeding into a time of great struggle and great sacrifice for many, and great suffering. O My children, I cry to you, I come to you as a Mediatrix between God and man. Listen to Me now before it is too late! The nations cry peace, peace, but they prepare for war! My children, it would be but one madman, a man who has given himself to satan to plunge the world, your world, into a bath, a bloodbath of fire!" - Our Lady, July 15, 1977

OVERCOME YOUR OBSTACLES
"Graces are earned and can be gathered by the prayers and penance of others. Therefore, you who have received these graces have a great responsibility to your brothers. You must not sit back and accept your redemption with pride, for this offends the Father. Your graces will be earned with thorns. Therefore, you will overcome your obstacles with prayer and sacrifice." - Our Lady, March 24, 1973

"My children, My little humble children, I appeal to you as your Mother, go forward on foot, knock on the doors; bring the light to your brothers and sisters. For those who have been given great grace, much is expected of them." - Our Lady of the Roses, May 26, 1976

"As disciples of the latter days, My children, much shall be asked of you, but I assure you: all that you give in faith and charity shall be returned to you threefold." - Jesus, June 1, 1978
