MESSAGE: “My dearest children, I come to offer you my greatest gift—to give you my love in a most special exchange, my heart for yours. In this exchange, you shall make the Act of Consecration to My Immaculate Heart, thus partaking in my Triumph. I ask you my children, it is only your choice to accept.”
8-9-92
GUIDANCE: Our Lady reminds us of the purpose of the consecration. The consecration holds the promise of a soul to be possessed by her and through her to God, the Holy Spirit. As she remains the spouse of the Holy Spirit, all is given to God, so it is in this way that our hearts are also promised to God through our consecration to her. Since the entire purpose of Our Lady is to bring all hearts to her Son, she in effect, is collecting all souls to Him.
In the Act of Consecration, our heart is exchanged, by divine grace, for Our Lady’s heart and then our souls are purified and cleansed through a focused reconciliation with God. When the soul comes into union with Our Lady, the desire to imitate her becomes the purpose of this union. The heart is brought to the level of purity required for the heart to correspond with the imitation of Our Lady, thus bringing about the necessary spiritual atmosphere for the exchange of hearts to occur. In this imitation, our heart is pulled by a force of desire so that it can be met on the other side by God for the exchange. The Act of Consecration is a spiritual communion with Jesus through the heart of Our Lady.
DIRECTION: Our Lady tells us that we do not recognize the power given to us through prayer. We hold within our own hearts the key to peace in the world. Through prayer, a relationship will be increased; and through this heart to heart time we spend with Him, all our needs can be fulfilled. We should place aside a time for this relationship to grow. It is not possible to have a one-sided relationship. We must allow Jesus the time to reveal to our heart. His design created for us. Through the solitude of prayer, all the mysteries of heaven can be taught to our soul.
MEDITATION: O’Immaculate Heart of Mary, help me to pray for the fire within my heart to be brought by you, to the level necessary for the exchange of my heart for yours. I pray to give to you, dear Mother, a YES of simplicity created from the purity of my heart and with the intention of imitation of your heart. Holy Mary, assist me with the desire to love God with my entire soul; to spare nothing within my power to please Him, who loves me so greatly. I desire to become united with you eternally, so that you may present me before the throne of your son in a state of perfection and filled with sacred love. Such is my ardent hope, my fervent desire.
“And every one that has left house or brethren or sister, or father, or mother, or lands for my sake, shall receive a hundred-fold, and shall possess life everlasting.” Matt 19: 29

MESSAGE: “Dear children, the act of consecration to my Immaculate Heart is just as I speak it. It is an act and not merely words. I rejoice that your hearts are realizing this.
I tell you, your hearts are a window to your soul; the Act of Consecration opens this window. Your soul is like a prism, it is designed by God to reflect Him. If there are impurities in this prism, it cannot reflect the glory that was intended. To bring clarity to the soul, you must pray. Only through prayer may all impurities be dissolved.
Look into my heart, dear ones, for when you gaze in, you shall only receive the Trinity. I can only reflect the presence of God to you.
Listen my children, I assure you, open your hearts to receive the light of God. Allow only Him to be reflected to you.” 7-7-92
GUIDANCE: Our Lady brings to us a call to her mission – the mission for the Triumph. This mission begins in our consecration to her Immaculate Heart; thus we are responding to the call to holiness and the quest for peace within ourselves and within the world.
We must begin by realizing that this is a call to a personal conversion involving our own heart and soul which allows God to work in us and through us.
The Act of Consecration is exactly as Our Lady has said — it is an act. The Act of Consecration will join our hearts through hers, to her Son, through a specially created grace.
DIRECTION: Prayer is what creates our relationship with God. Through this means of communion. God comes into our hearts and us into Him. Through prayer all impurities in us may be realized, given to Him and then transformed by His grace. To have quiet in the soul is to be filled with the presence of God. We must first be united as one with God, then, through this unity of ourselves with Him. He will be able to work miracles through us.
MEDITATION: O’Immaculate Heart of Mary, help me to allow the window of my soul to remain clear and open, so that all impurities may be erased and God may be magnified brilliantly and gloriously through my own conversion, consecration and witness. May I give action to the words I promise to you, dear Mother. Open my heart that I become the sign of your Triumph to the world.
“They shall be like the angels of God in heaven.” Matt 22: 30

The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into hell, the third day He arose from the dead; He ascended into heaven, sits at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

O’Maria

Place around it a wreath of purity, adorned in virtue.
Take my heart, dear Mother, consecrated as your
own. Present it to God Father as an offering from
me to you. Help me O’Maria in each day to make
your heart more known.”
Pentecost Prayer
As we say this prayer given to us by Our Lady, may our hearts be opened to recognize and accept the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and may we step forward confidently in this battle for the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart. We are called to become a reflection of Christ – a reflection of the face of God that all may be drawn to – so that His glory may be magnified through our lives.
“My dear children, you bring my Jesus such joy today. I pass to you all a great blessing from God. He desires to create in His children, unity and glory to His Name.” 6-7-92
“Spirit of Christ, stir me; Spirit of Christ, move me; Spirit of Christ, fill me; Spirit of Christ, seal me. Consecrate in me Your heart and will O Heavenly Father. Create in me a fountain of virtues. Seal my soul as Your own, that Your reflection in me may be a light for all to see. Amen.” 6-7-92
奉献的方式
敬礼圣母的真谛 Nos. 231-233
如何作出你的奉献
第三周末要办告解、领圣体,目的在于藉着玛利亚之手全然奉献于耶稣基督,作她爱情的奴仆。领圣体后应虔诚诵念以下的奉献祷词。这奉献祷词若无现成的,应由 自己亲笔或托人缮写,并于当日在缮写好的奉献词上签名以作凭证。最好在这天为耶稣、圣母奉上献仪,以补过去不忠于圣洗的誓言,或为表明自己已隶属于耶稣与 玛利亚。这种献仪是按照每人的热心程度与能力的多少而定,如守大斋、行苦功、施赈济、献蜡烛等;若满怀善心,即使只奉献一枚针,耶稣已满意了,因他重视的 是好心、善意。每年至少于当日重新举行这奉献,并遵守前三周应行的工作。
奉献祷词
藉玛利亚之手全然奉献于耶稣基督──降凡的智慧
吁!至可爱、至可敬的耶稣!祢既是永恒的智慧,又是降凡的智慧;祢既是真天主,又是真人;祢既是永生之父的独生子,又是终身童贞玛利亚的爱儿;从永远,祢就在圣父的光辉中,降生时,祢又在玛利亚的贞胎里;我深深地钦崇祢!
我感谢祢,因为祢使自己空虚,取了奴仆的形体,来解救我脱离魔鬼残虐的奴役。
我 赞美光荣祢,因为祢甘于在一切事上服从圣母玛利亚,好让我能藉她成为祢忠信的奴仆,以爱作侍奉,但我要承认我并没有固守我在圣洗时曾隆重地向祢作 出的誓愿和许诺。我并没有满全我应尽的责任,我不配称为祢的孩子,甚至不堪当称为祢的奴仆。除了引起祢不满和不快的事之外,我没有任何功绩,所以我再不敢 靠己力前来,分沾祢尊贵的圣德。为此,我投奔圣母玛利亚,这是祢给我的中保,藉着她慈悲的转祷,使祢我之间得以通达。透过圣母,我希望在祢那里得到真诚的 忏悔、罪过的赦免和伟大的智慧,这智慧是我一直所渴求的,但愿它常存我内。
那末,万福玛利亚、天主的活圣龛!永恒的智慧曾甘愿隐藏在祢内,受天使及世人的钦崇,我现在投奔到妳台前!
万福!天地的元后!我向妳请安,凡在天主以下的万物都属妳统治。
万福!罪人稳妥的避难所!我向妳呼求,我仰赖妳的慈悲绝不会使任何人失望。
我恳求妳,赐我对神圣智慧的渴求;我自知不配,但为表白我恳求的心迹,我愿奉献一切,请接纳我这个许诺。
我, ,不忠的罪人,今天藉着妳更新,并重宣圣洗的誓词,对魔鬼及其虚伪的应许、邪恶的事工,永远弃绝。我将自己全然献给耶稣基督──降凡的智慧,在我的余生,背着十字架跟随他,比以前忠于他。
今 天我以天朝神圣为证人,甘愿承诺,以妳玛利亚作为我的慈母和元后。我放下一切,全然奉献给妳,作为妳的奴仆。我献上自己的灵魂和肉身,交托一切精 神和物质的财富,包括我的一切善行,不论是过去的、现在的或将来的。我亳无保留地献上一切,使妳拥有全权,随意指派我和使用我的财物,但求愈显主荣,从现 今直到永远。
优雅的贞女!我的奉献虽然卑微,却宏愿光荣和效法永恒的智慧,他降生尘世,以妳为慈母,甘愿孝顺和服从妳。于我这可怜的罪 人,你们两位都有无上的权 柄,我甘心服从。于至圣圣三嘉惠妳的总总特恩,我深深感谢天主。我现在声明,从今以后,在一切事上,勉力光荣和服从妳,决心成为妳真正的奴仆,以爱作侍 奉。
可奇的母亲!妳的圣子既然通过妳救赎了我,如今也藉着妳接纳我,求妳把我献给妳挚爱的圣子,作为他的奴仆,从现今直到永远。
仁慈的母亲!请赏我慈恩,使我能分沾天主的真智慧!妳一直爱护、训勉、引导、滋养和保护妳的子女和奴仆,求妳接纳我在他们当中。
至忠信的贞女!妳的圣子是降凡的智慧,求妳助我成为他的门徒、跟随者和奴仆,在一切事上,尽心尽性,立己立人。愿我从妳的转祷和榜样得到力量,不断茁壮,达至耶稣在世的圆满年龄的程度,并能在天堂上分享他圆满的光荣,亚孟。
师主篇 卷四 第11章
圣体为忠实的灵魂最为需要
至甘饴的主耶稣!热心灵魂,在祢的筵席上,得同祢一起宴饮,那是多么甘饴啊!祢是他最可爱慕的,最可盼望的;在这筵席上,除了祢以外,没有别的佳肴。
如 果我能在祢跟前,因最深切的爱情而流泪,并能同玛大肋纳一样用泪珠来洗祢的脚;为我真是甘饴无比的事。哎!可是这样的热情在哪里呢?流的圣泪又在 哪里呢?在祢面前及诸天神的面前,我整个的心,本当热爱炎炎,多流喜泪。在这圣事中,祢虽然藏在面酒形内,可是祢总是实在其内呀!若欲见祢的本性本体,不 用说我的眼目不能;就是天地万物,也经不起祢的光荣威严。祢藏在面酒形内,正是为迁就我的软弱。
敬礼圣母的真谛 Nos. 261-265
一切在玛利亚内:荣福圣母是新亚当的真正伊甸园,而旧伊甸园只不过是它的影子、象征而已。在这新伊甸园里有新亚当耶稣基督留下的不可言喻的富裕、美丽、珍 奇与甜蜜。这片极神圣的地方是一片贞洁无玷的土地,因为居住在里面的是以神圣妙工造成,养育了毫无瑕庛、全无罪污的新亚当。在这伊甸园里长着真正的生命 树,它曾结出了生命果实──耶稣基督。也有知善恶树,它将光明给予世界。在这片圣地上,有天主亲身栽培以施恩泽、浇灌的树木,它过去与现在时时结出天上美 味的果品。唯独天主圣神能使人透彻明瞭藏在这些物质象征下的真理。天主圣神利用教父们的口舌称誉荣福童贞为大司祭耶稣基督进入世界的东向的大门;他第一次 从那里进来,第二次仍是要从那里进来。
一切为玛利亚:为玛利亚献身事奉,并不是以她作为行事的最终目的(因应是耶稣基督),却以她作近向 和达到耶稣那里的神秘管道和简捷途径。我们应在这 位尊贵皇后的庇荫下,为她承办、完成伟大的事业。若有人反对她的特恩时,我们当出来辩护;有人削减她的光荣时,我们当出来维护。若可能的话,亦以众人来事 奉她,实行这真正切实的敬礼。我们不可为自己微小的劳役便向玛利亚要求报酬,只应以隶属于这位极可爱的母后权下为尊荣,藉着她不断与她的圣子耶稣结合为幸 福,从现今直到永远。
