Blessed Mother says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“Dear children, by now you must realize that every conflict is a battle in hearts of good versus evil. Souls who come here and receive the Seal of Discernment, as well as the Blessing of Truth, are not exempt from choosing untruth over Truth. This remains a matter of free will, which God does not interfere with. However, this Seal and Blessing help in more clearly defining good as opposed to evil, thus making it more difficult for the soul to oppose the Truth of good.”

“It remains for the heart to be open to the Truth, avoiding any disordered self-interest or ambition. Those who come here are given every opportunity to believe in the Truth of this Mission but, ultimately, belief remains a matter of free will.”

“It is here, on this property [Maranatha Spring and Shrine] and through these Messages [of Holy Love], that many battles are fought.”

Read Ephesians 6:10-16 *

Synopsis: The warfare of Christians (whose strength comes from the Lord and His Power), is a spiritual warfare.

Finally, brethren, be strengthened in the Lord, and in the might of his power. 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. Therefore take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and to stand in all things perfect. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with Truth, and having on the breastplate of Justice, and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace: in all things taking the shield of Faith, wherewith you may be able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the most wicked one.
