Prophetic Words & Scripture Readings at Live Stream May 12, 2021

At beginning of meeting - Entrance Antiphon at today's Mass:  "I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will tell of your name to muy kin, alleluia."  Psalm 148:  "Heaven and earth are full of your glory.  Praise the Lord from the heavens; praise him in the heights!  Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his host!  Let them praise the name of the Lord, for his name alone is exalted; his glory is above earth and heaven."

Scripture Reading Psalm 72:3-8, 12-15 - "Let the mountains and hills bring a message of peace for the people.  Uprightly he will defend the poorest, he will save the children of those in need, and crush their oppressors. Like sun and moon he will endure, age after age, welcome as rain that falls on the pasture, and showers to thirsty soil.  In his days virtue will flourish, a universal peace till the moon is no more; his empire shall stretch from sea to sea, from the river to the ends of the earth.  He will free the poor man who calls to him, and those who need help, he will have pity on the poor and feeble, and save the lives of those in need; he will redeem their lives from exploitation and outrage, their lives will be precious in his sight.  (Long may he live, may gold from Sheba be given him!)  Prayer will be offered for him constantly, blessings invoked on him all day long."

Scripture Reading 1 Chronicles 16:8-10 - "Give thanks to Yahweh, call his name aloud, proclaim his deeds to the peoples.  Sing to him, play to him, tell over all his marvels.  Glory in his holy name, let the hearts that seek Yahweh rejoice!"   And it goes on right through to verse 16 and it's all on praising God and for all the families of the people, to all praise together.

Scripture Reading Psalm 108:1-6 - "My heart is steadfast, O God.  I will sing, I will sing praises with my soul.  Awake, harp and lyre!  I will awaken the dawn.  I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the people.  I will sing praises to you among the nations.  For your love and kindness is great above the heavens and your truth reaches to the skies.  Be exalted, O God, above the heavens and your glory above all the earth; that your beloved may be delivered.  Save with your right hand and answer me."  Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.  Amen.

Prophecy - "The battle is raging but I have won the battle.  Victory is mine.  Cling to me.  Stay close to me.  I will lead you.  Do not be afraid."

Scripture Reading Psalm 125:1-2 - "Like Mount Zion are they who trust in the Lord, unshakable, forever enduring.  As mountains surround Jerusalem, the Lord surrounds his people both now and forever."

Prophecy - "My children, you mean so much to me but I desire to give you hope in the midst of this darkness.  Do not fear, my children, for I am with you.  I have everything in control even though the world is out of control.  For I am the one that can save, I am the one that can heal, I am the one that can transform.  But, my children, people doubt and they caught up in their fears and in their brokenness and they fail to turn to me in trust and in confidence of my power to be able to deliver them.  My children, I am instilling that hope within you tonight.  I want you to know that I have heard your cry.  I have heard the cries of the world.  I know the pain that you are going through and I have not abandoned you.  Again, my children, I want to reassure you that I have not abandoned you and I am with you right now.  Turn to me.  Trust in me.  Know that I am God."

Scripture Reading Romans 11:33-36 - "How great are God's riches!  How deep are his wisdom and knowledge!  Who can explain his decisions?  Who can understand his ways?   As the Scripture says, 'Who knows the mind of the Lord?  Who is able to give him advice?  Who has ever given him anything so that he has to pay it back?'  For all things were created by him and all things exist through him and for him.  To God be the glory forever.  Amen."

Scripture Reading Micah -  One was the Lament for Jerusalem Micah 1:8-9:  "This is why I shall howl and wail, why I shall go barefoot and naked, why I shall howl like the jackals, why I shall shriek like the owls.  Where there is no cure for the wounds that Yahweh inflicts, the blows fall on Judah, it falls on the gateway of my people, on Jerusalem, itself."   The next was Micah 2:1-2:  "Disaster for those who plot evil, who lie in the bed planning mischief!  No sooner is it dawn then they do it since they have the power to do so.  Seizing the fields that they covet, they take over houses as well, owner and house they seize alike, the man himself as well as his inheritance." .....I didn't want to read this but in the last prophecy it was answered - "The Lord would look after everthing."

Prophecy - "My children, It is I, Jesus.  My people are seeking direction and I tell them the answer is in my Word.  Find your answer, your peace, your joy there.  Read my word."

Scripture Reading Romans 12:2 - "Do not conform yourselves to the standards of this world, but let God transform you inwardly by your complete change of your mind, then you will be able to know the will of God, what is good and is pleasing to him and perfect."
