Message from Our Lady of Knock

To THE WORLD

April 24, 2005 through Chris Courtis, a visionary in Maryland, U.S.A.

 

My dear little children, praised be Jesus!

My dear children, I am Our Lady of Knock, and I am the queen of Ireland, and I desire, dear little ones, to be your queen.  I desire to be the queen of your hearts.  In Ireland, I appeared in a time when there was famine and much trouble and sorrow and suffering.  Today your world is still the same.  I desire to teach you many things about Knock and the apparitions.

 

First of all, I appeared silently.  So did those who accompanied me, St. Joseph, St. John the Evangelist, and the angels.  Silence is a great gift and grace from God.  You must learn to quiet your mind and quiet your heart.  And two, with all your heart give praise to God.  Surrender your heart and your thoughts to Jesus.  Let Him penetrate you with his peace.  Do not speak so much about living the messages, as you will falter.  Live the messages and that will be your way of speaking to others silently.

 

 I desire you also to know that St. John the Evangelist accompanied me for two reasons.  Number one, he was given to me to be his mother and his mediatrix of grace, and I was given to him.  He is the example of my Son, and I desire you to be examples of my Son by living the Holy Gospel and by accepting me as your mother.  It is true, dear children, I desire you to read the gospel and to live the messages of the gospel, but you must read and surrender yourselves to Jesus.  Otherwise His words will not be able to penetrate your heart. 

 

St. Joseph, who accompanied me, I desire you to have a great devotion to him and love for him and his most chaste heart.  He is the foster father of Jesus, my beloved spouse, and towards the end, when he departed this life, his soul became without sin and during the Resurrection, he accompanied my Son bodily into Heaven.  He is the Saint of All Saints because of what he has worked on earth, living chastely, living in poverty, and loving God and Jesus above his own self.  He is a model of fathers and model of spouses.  I desire you all to imitate his virtues.  Pray to him.  He hears your prayers and will grace you with many graces.  Ask him to be chaste in heart, and he will help you. (Our Lady is smiling, she says,) In no way does devotion to St. Joseph detract from devotion to me or to Jesus.  In fact, it leads you to me and to Jesus in a more intimate way.  Go to him, for he hears your prayers.

 

I also desire you to know that I appeared at Knock silently, but I was there to point you to Jesus, the Eucharistic Jesus who is alive and who is always with you.  I desire you to be filled with the living spirit of God by going to Jesus in the holy tabernacle.  I point the way to you – silence, obedience, love.  These are ways that will lead you to Jesus. 

 

I have a question for you, dear little ones, have you ever noticed that those who are so called Marian priests and those who are devoted to me have great love for the Eucharistic Jesus.  This is not an accident.  I am the Mother of God and I lead you to Jesus with more, fuller understanding of the divine mystery of the Holy Eucharist.  I am His mother, and He is blood of my blood, bone of my bone, flesh of my flesh and heart of my heart.  And those who dwell in my Immaculate Heart receive the same gift when they receive Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.  ®

 

Now, I point out to you- (I see a vision.  I see Knock but it’s old.  Our Lady says I’m seeing it when it’s actually happening. It’s in the 1800’s.  There are angels and they are adoring Our Lord.  Our Lady says,)

 

Adore Jesus!  The angels were silent in their praise.  Go to Jesus before your tabernacle!  Go to Jesus during Adoration!  Go to Jesus at Mass, and silently pray to Him, and open your hearts! Ask the angels to help you to imitate their loving devotion to Jesus.  They are powerful prayer warriors, and they will pray for you, but you must be silent and you must absorb Jesus.  His peace He desires to give to you, but you cannot if you do not quiet your heart.  Imitate their loving, silent prayers and worship of Jesus.

 

Now, getting to Jesus who is the Lamb offered up with the Cross behind Him. (in the vision of Knock) Many people will question the symbol, but it is Jesus.  He appeared in that way to prove a point.  Number one, adoration of Jesus is the most important.  Adore the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament and you will be filled with good fruit and many graces, and you will find peace! 

 

The Cross stands for sacrifice on Calvary, which is continually offered up in the Most Holy of Holies, in the Most Holy Mass!  Jesus continues to offer Himself to you, to the Father, and for your salvation during each and every Holy Mass!  Receive Him in joy, dear children, and realize too, that you receive the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost when you receive Jesus in the Mass!  Do not think me contradictory.  I am telling you the truth.  Jesus said, and I quote, “I have come to fulfill the Will of the Father.  You asked to see the Father.  I say, ‘How long have I been with you?’”  And Jesus said it again, “Those who know the Son, know the Father.  Those who see the Son, see the Father.” 

 

Those who receive Jesus, receive the Father for Jesus says, “Those who accept Me, accept He who has sent Me.”  If Jesus is one with the Father, how can this not be, for God the Father is with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament? You receive Jesus and God the Father, and you also receive the Holy Spirit, which issues forth from both of Them.  What a great grace you have!  Understand this sign and believe firmly.

 

Another great desire that I wish to talk to you about is the time in which I appeared at Knock.  Number one, I appeared when it was at night.  Two, it was raining.  What does this tell you about the time that you are living?  This is a symbol of what will happen before the Eucharistic Reign of Jesus.  First, there will be great darkness brought on by Satan.  And then the rain shall begin, the rains of God’s justice.  The most heavy part of the rain, the unveiling of God’s mercy is yet to come, and no one will be able to withstand His judgments.  This is what will happen.  It happened in Knock then, and it will happen now, and then shall come the Eucharistic Reign of my beloved Son Jesus. 

 

Oh children, wait in joyful anticipation, and pray, for the hour of even greater tribulation is almost upon you!  I did not appear in Knock so that everyone may see me, but only those who came to the church.  As for the church, I appeared so that people may go to church more frequently, for it is there that Jesus exists.  I desire all priests and religious to know this: do not close your churches early and do not open them late.  Let them be open so that everyone may seek the help of Jesus who is alive there. ®

I also desire that this Year of the Eucharist be continual for everyone.  Though it may last one year, I desire it to last all year round in your hearts.  For this to happen, you must pray and let the world know I desire every other year that a Year of the Eucharist be celebrated so that people may continue to be renewed and refreshed in Jesus who is alive and truly present. (She’s looking at us but her eyes are looking up like towards Heaven, like past something, into the future.)

 

I also come, dear children, to deliver a very important message.  I appear under the title of Our Lady of Knock to deliver this message to the Orthodox Catholics who do not have Adoration.  Hear me, dear children of the Orthodox faith.  My Son has something against thee because you will not adore Him in the Most Blessed Sacrament.  Many of you are ignorant that during Mass, this is truly transformed into His Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity.  You can have Adoration in the Orthodox faith.  I call on all those who hear this message who are of Orthodox faith to ask their priests, or priests who hear this message, to set aside some of the Body and Blood and put it in a little tabernacle, anything to contain Him so that people may come and pay their respects to Jesus and adore Him.

 

My Son delivers this message through me and He says, “Dear children, I have something against thee since you will not adore Me before receiving Me.  Do you not adore those you love?  Do you not receive those into your hearts?  Little children, receive Me by adoring Me.  You cannot receive Me without adoring Me first because it is a way to prepare your hearts to receive Me.  Adore Me first and then receive Me and you shall have greater blessings.  Adore Me and then receive Me.  You ask why I ask this of you?  I say to you, do you not adore the ones you love before you receive them into your heart and into your house?  The answer to this question is very simple  “Yes”, you adore your loved ones, you love them, and then you welcome them into your family, into your heart, into your home.” 

 

Prepare, make ready for Jesus by adoring my Son in the Blessed Sacrament and receiving Him.  I am the Mother of God and I desire to say, when a community or individual surrenders himself to the Presence of the Eucharistic Lord and worships and adores Him in the Holy Eucharist, and in the Blessed Sacrament, and in Adoration, and in the tabernacles of churches, they grow.  They grow in grace, they grow in spirit, they grow in blessings.  Individuals can be transformed and communities can be transformed if only they would go to my Son. 

 

To the Orthodox faith I say, you do not have to do this on a regular basis.  Set aside once a week for Adoration.  It is truly is His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.  Adore my Son and then receive Him.  I love all children of the faith as though they were one.  All Catholics and all Orthodox, I desire unity. As I desired unity in Ireland then, so I desire unity in all the churches.  Now, every heart must be converted in order to recognize the great importance of the messages that I am giving to you. 

 

And now I shall depart.  I shall bless you with the Sign of the Cross, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.  Now as I make the Sign of the Cross again, I shall depart.  I shall depart but I shall always be with you whenever you all pray. And as I make the Sign of the Cross again, I shall bless you and all that you have with you, all that’s under the altar, near the altar, on top of the altar, and everything in this room, including you yourselves, I am blessing, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Thank you for responding to my call.  Go in the great peace, love, and joy of God.  Ad Deum ®

(She’s not going to depart quite yet because I have to describe what she looks like.  She’s wearing a gold crown that is radiating light, and a light around her head like a little halo, even though she’s just bursting in light.  Her face is beautiful!  Her hair is long and dark.  Her eyes are crystal blue, her nose, and that beautiful mouth!  Her cheeks are really rosy, and she’s smiling and she has two dimples, one on each side of her face.  She’s wearing a cape and there’s a gold clasp holding it, and in the clasp, there’s like a sparkling diamond.  And the cape is so white! It’s like white as snow and it has a glow to it and her dress is very plain, very white, long sleeves.  There’s like a little gold belt around her waist, although it’s higher up.  And the dress goes all the way down to her feet.  She’s on a cloud and her dress is very white and it’s sparkling like light because it’s so white.  She’s blessing us again, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.  She’s reminding me of the vision I saw.  She wants me to say that they were here. Oh, St. John the Evangelist, St. Joseph, and the Eucharistic Lord with the Cross and the angels.  Yes, they were here.  She’s floating up to Heaven in the light.  She told me privately earlier that next month she will appear privately under the title of Our Lady of All Nations.)
