In 2014, Our Lady warned that Putin posed a Grave Threat to World Peace. At the time, this was overlooked in most of the West, as the West simply did not want to believe that Putin wanted to rebuild the Soviet Union, despite Putin repeatedly indicating that he wanted to do precisely that. In light of more recent events in the Ukraine, is it time for a second look, at these prophecies from nearly 10 years ago? The quotes below: " March 4, 2014 The Rise of Putin Mary All is converging into the great moment of truth. All the events on the world stage fit together, like the acts of a play. (Yet, many see them as isolated events, without any apparent meaning or script.) The tensions build. The main characters appear on the scene. All must be present for the climax, the moment when all the forces come into play, when evil is totally spent and defeated. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. However, how many casualties (that need not have happened) will occur. I must speak now of Putin. He is the most important actor, often overlooked in the early scenes, but more and more emerging. His role will increase greatly. His grasp upon power will grow tighter as his mind conceives new strategies. I was not wrong when I told the three children that Russia would spread its errors. Only now is the West beginning to see what I have been proclaiming for almost 100 years. Russia is the problem. Russia must be consecrated to my Immaculate heart for there to be world peace. Who will turn back Putin and his designs? These will be no turning back. Satan has the field all to himself and the Woman Clothed With the Sun stands on the sidelines. This need not be. Comment: When Out Lady spoke about Russia in 1917, and also about World War II, many thought she was mistaken, that Germany was the real problem. Time has shown how correct Mary has been."

For further context, the Lord Jesus also had this to say about the Russia's wars of conquest, and Mother Mary about Saintly Sr. Lucy being silenced: " March 24, 2014 The Russian Bear (Special Locution) Jesus (Reader, these are very special locutions, given in an extraordinary way.) The Russian bear has swallowed up his first territory (Crimea). He is still hungry and will continue to swallow people and territories. He only understands one thing – a force that will not allow him to do this. The West sits at its tables and discusses, while Russia gobbles up its territories. The West does not see the importance of the coming months., nor the extent to which Russia is ready to go, to add more people and more land to its empire. When these months are over and Russia has reached the full extent of its aggression (for now), the West will have lost much of its prestige and will never regain the position that it holds now. What is happening in these months will not be reversible. These events will be like the amputation of an arm or a leg. There will be a new world reality. Everything will be tilted. The ramifications will touch every country in Europe and America. These leaders will have foolishly delayed, while Russia moved ahead with firm purpose. All of this is the fruit of policies that have not taken the evil of Russia seriously, as if the collapse of the Iron Curtain or the removal of the Berlin Wall really changed the soul of the nation of Russia. When these months are completed and the people and the land have been given to Russia without a single shot being fired by the West, then the next series of events will take place. The West will be much weaker. It has no leader and no goals. Especially, it has no faith. Comment: Jesus speaks about the next few months and the results of the Russian aggression. March 24, 2014 Using These Locutions (Special Locution) Mary (Again a special locution.) I will no longer be silent. For decades, I have been telling the Church that Russia is the problem and it must be consecrated to my Immaculate Heart. The Church has chosen not to listen to my voice. It has even silenced those voices, especially Sr. Lucy’s, which carried my message. Now, you are reaping the harvest which you have sown. I will wait no longer. You, O Church, have buried my messages. You have hidden them. You have refused to reveal them. You have even twisted them. Because your voice does not send forth to the world the secrets of Fatima, nor do you obey the commands that I made at Fatima, I will bypass you. I will begin to use these special locutions in a new and more powerful way. I will hold back nothing. I will reveal through these locutions what should have been revealed by the Church. I will do this slowly, piece by piece, truth by truth. I will do this in a consistent way so each person can easily follow my words and be led to the correct conclusions. I must do this because you have not done this. You have turned aside from Fatima and the Fatima prophecies about Russia spreading its errors. You have not been a faithful watchman, warning my people and the world. Because you have not used your worldwide voice, I will use this little voice of my locutions. Comment: For some reason, the Church has kept the Fatima secrets hidden. Mary promises to use these locutions to reveal what the people need to know."
What locutions and from where???? I’ve never heard of them. Any way, I agree with John Mearshimer’s perspective.
These Locutions sound a little too much like a CNN news broadcast for me. I notice how they appear to encourage the West to go to war. From the Queen of Peace? Really? I don't believe them. In fact I believe they are evil.
Well, there are plenty of fiery rebukes of the West also. It's clear Heaven is not pleased with the agnostic liberalism and indifferentism of the West, and especially of abortion: " March 15, 2014 The Blindness of the World Mary World leaders think that they walk in light when, in truth, their hearts and minds are filled with the greatest darkness. They have no faith and the words they speak do not come from a love of God. They are like Old Testament Israel which foolishly entered into foreign alliances instead of trusting God. So, I must be like the Old Testament prophets, speaking God’s words to leaders filled only with secular light. You attack the wrong places and protect only your own interests. Having no faith, you do not form alliances based on faith. Your foreign policies have become like your political policies, based on fragmented visions and selfish goals. You are leading the West down the wrong road. Your vision is blurred. Your goals are selfish. Your means are inadequate. Your oneness is broken and your hearts are in the wrong place. I want to turn your hearts. I want to explain why I have lifted my protective hand from you. Although you will not listen, although you will say this is not important, that it does not even deal with foreign policies, I must say it anyway, “You, selfish leaders and blind guides, how can you protect those who are born, when you foolishly refuse to protect the unborn. Protect your unborn, and I will protect you. Continue to sacrifice them to political expediency and I will sacrifice you on the altars of war.” Comment: Mary uses the fiery words of the Old Testament prophet."
Also, on March 26, 2014, Our Lady spoke of a Special Someone whom She wanted to lead to be President of the USA. Donald Trump? " March 16, 2014 A Special Leader Mary There is a leader whom I hold in my heart and whose ascendency to office I want to bring about. I have given him all the qualifications needed to lead the free world. I have advanced him according to my plan and he, himself, is willing to make the sacrifices needed to seek election. I ask of him only one thing. He must protect human life, all human life, no matter how it is conceived. He must stand clear and firm that human life begins at the moment of conception. Let him put his name to the Life At Conception Act. Let him not fear. This is the step I want him to take. If he commits himself to protect every unborn life, I will protect him in his bid for the highest office. To all world leaders I say clearly that there can be no compromise in this matter. None of you are allowed to sacrifice the unborn for the sake of your political lives. God cannot bless America while America kills its unborn. This is the cause of your decline, a decline that will happen even more quickly if you do not change your laws. Comment: Hopefully, the person who Mary speaks about will read this!"
I agree, Padraig; she sounds like a pro-life political strategist, not the Mother of God. In no Marian apparition that I know of, has Our Lady delved specifically into politics! In Fatima for instance, she spoke of a coming war if the world did not repent, take up the Rosary, and complete the Five First Saturdays. Yes, as citizens, we need discerning hearts about our candidates, but Mary has always focused on prayer, fasting, and reparation to bring about change in the world. Mary, Mother of God, pray for us!
She reminds me, when she speaks of a feather blowing on the breeze of the Holy Spirit. Totally God centered. Or of a country woman of few words.
She gets straight to the point...and it is always God's point. Like a Crystal vase, the sunlight of God always shines through her like a little rainbow.
Yes. And she never mentions politicians by name as far as I can tell. Even at the height of WW2 she never mentioned "Hitler" by name. She knows wars are not caused by individuals, no matter how evil they may be. Wars originate in the heart of man.
I just read the thread on Our Lady of America/Sister Mary Ephraim. The words of Our Lady and the prayers she gave Sister Mary Ephraim sound like her. Her voice. Straight to the heart. The heart knows. These "messages" from lttw did not have that effect.
Well, looks like I'm in the minority then. What do you all think of the Messages that speak of the Consecration of Russia, which now is arguably close to fulfilment? " August 17, 2014 The Stirring in Russian Hearts Mary When Russia is consecrated to my Immaculate Heart, there will be a stirring in the hearts of all, but especially in the souls of the Russian people. They will receive an inner light and will understand what forces of evil were planted in their nation by Satan’s instruments. As their hearts are stirred, more and more light will fill them. They will reject both what has been forced upon them and what, to some degree, they themselves have chosen. All of these evils have formed their nation and their leaders into instruments of darkness, death and destruction. In this new stirring, they will fully reject what they have become and what they had been forced to accept. This stirring will grow greater as it manifests itself in outward demonstrations of a growing desire to return to its religious roots and, especially, to return to their devotion of my Immaculate Heart. No one will be able to stop this movement because their nation will have been specifically consecrated by the Holy Father and by all the Catholic bishops of the world. I have put my seal of promise upon this act of Consecration, and the graces flowing from it will not be turned back. Even though the most frightful opposition will arise, the stirring in the hearts of the Russian people for this new light will not be turned back. Comment: Our Lady begins to sketch out the new Russia, formed by the special graces still hidden and locked in her Immaculate Heart.
And: "August 18, 2014 The Overcoming of Separation Mary I will place such great gifts in the hearts of the Russian people that they will not be satisfied with superficial changes. Instead, they will wipe away the divisions of the centuries. They will realize that I have released an ocean of graces which have changed their darkness into light. They will realize that they have been freed from the past century of diabolical control. They will also know that this great gift has come through the consecration of Russia made by the Holy Father in communion with all the bishops in the world. They will begin to question why they are separated from the Holy Father. Would all of this darkness have fallen if there had been no division? They will cry out for unity with Rome. This ocean will be so deep and so powerful that it will sweep away all opposition. The Russian people will overturn the centuries of division that have been forced upon them. That is why the Holy Father and all the bishops must make this Consecration in a public way and must specifically mention Russia. The Russian people must know the source of the gift. This is also why I wait and wait, even though the Holy Father delays. I must have the Holy Father act in the name of the Catholic Church so the Russian people know that the Catholic Church has released this gift. In this way, they will desire and bring about union with the Catholic Church. I unfold these revelations so all the world, especially the Church, can see what I intend and why I ask what I do. Comment: For the first 1000 years, there was only one, united Catholic Church. In 1054, the Archbishop of Constantinople withdrew from this union with the pope. Thus began the division into Roman Catholic and Orthodox Catholic Churches, the great schism that lasts even today."
If we have a Devotion to Mary then we are friends, we love her. We always know the accent of those we ❤ love. How could we not?
Isn't this the so-called prophesy that immediately shut down its own website a few years back when it epically failed in its prediction that Pope Francis would have some kind of epiphany during his visit to the United States? I'm not sure those locutions even believe in themselves any more so I can't understand why anyone would still be flogging that dead horse.
Well, I came across these locutions through the Mary, Refuge of Souls blog: https://maryrefugeofsouls.com/locutions-to-the-world/ They are still up on that site. I've also read the book containing these locutions: https://www.amazon.in/Locutions-World-John-Esseff/dp/149529983X We will agree to disagree.
I suggest reading through this old thread, especially the last page. https://motheofgod.com/threads/locutions-to-the-world.4116/page-82
I would never be so certain that I could say the messages are false. There is truth on what is said about world leaders especially that we do not have a leader in the west. That is so true. There is nothing against faith and morals here so I think we can make up our own minds and leave it there. Really there is no need for arguments.
