Oh man, I feel so deflated right now. I just knew it wouldn’t be a proper consecration, but after previewing the text, I’m completely appalled. ☹️

 

All I can say is, full steam ahead to the fulfillment of the Garabandal prophecies….

 

I think it’s wordy, but I believe since it specifically mentions Russia, it fulfills Our Lady’s request. It appears that most of the “experts” out there also say it works.

But, as said many times, this now more than ever, put it on all of us to fulfill the first Saturday requirements and to pray the Rosary everyday.

 

It remains to be seen whether the proper consecration will take place, but what exactly happens in the days and weeks that follow, that’s what matters to me….

 

I get the sense that the consecration will only buy us some time if it is not followed by true repentance particularly inside the Church where heresy and rampant disdain of the Truth and Doctrine on the part of so many is now prevalent. Conversion is ultimately the key, and that will not happened automatically. If many in the Church persist in their disobedience I have no doubt there will be serious purification of the kind foretold by Garabandal and Akita.

 

I disagree. The lead up to the actual words of consecration is long winded and, typical of Pope Francis, includes some of his favourite buzzwords and pet projects (be grateful the pachamama didn't get a mention). The actual words of consecration are good. Heaven didn't say "Consecrate Russia and nobody but Russia" so what Our Lady asked for is covered. I think the wording is quite clever because it might encourage the Orthodox Bishops to join in. They are in schism but they have Apostolic succession.

Wouldn't it be marvellous if the Greek, Armenian and Catholic Bishops were to do the consecration together in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre or the Church of the Annunciation in the Holy Land? Presently, that's a pipe dream but nothing is impossible for God, so may He hasten the day when we all are one.

Editing this to add that I didn't vote in the poll because I don't know whether we were promised that global peace will be ushered in immediately. I don't recall seeing the word "immediately" in any of the messages.

 

Yeah, I voted yes but don't think we should expect immediate world peace. I feel like it's going to set off a chain of events that leads to massive change in the world. Hopefully the conversion of Russia will be relatively quick though. It sure seems like the groundwork has been laid for their quick conversion....so many gorgeous churches to fill!

 

If we even have to wait for any length of time to see the expected outcome of this scheduled consecration is reason enough to doubt its validity. Years ago, the Vatican claimed that Heaven “approved” of John Paul II’s 1984 consecration and some 38 years later, we have yet to see Russia’s conversion and subsequent peace throughout the world, despite assurances that this complied with the requests of our Lady of Fatima. An even more important point refer to actual words by the Blessed Mother at Fatima, where she said, “In the End, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she will be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world.” Note the words, “In the End.” I believe a proper consecration of Russia will cause the immediate triumph of the Immaculate Heart , an instantaneous conversion of Russia, and the beginning of the Era of Peace, as promised by the Blessed Mother, nothing less. This idea is further bolstered by how during a broadcast interview. radio host Art Bell posed a question to his guest, the author Malachi Martin, about the effect of the real consecration to which the latter responded, that it would effectively strip Lucifer’s power and influence over humanity. This leads me to conclude that the consecration of Russia may occur as a means of ending the reign of the Antichrist, some time in the future. So I think that’s a scenario worth considering….

 

Where is the word "immediately" in what you quoted? Be careful of imposing timelines on Heaven.

I don't believe that Fr. Malachi Martin ever set eyes on the third secret. He knew more than most of what it contained but only as much as Cardinal Bea told him.

Lucifer's power was curtailed with the passion death and resurrection of Jesus. We are living the thousand years aka the Age of the Church. Satan will be unchained for a period of three and a half years for the reign of the AntiChrist who will be destroyed by a breath from Jesus after which will be the general judgement. Millenarianism is heresy.

The wording of Friday's consecration fulfils the conditions set by Heaven, i.e. Russia is named and consecrated to Our Lady's immaculate heart. The First Saturday devotions of reparation were also a requirement but we can't blame Pope Francis for past Popes' and Bishops' failure to promote it or for the faithful's failure to do their part. I'm as disillusioned with this papacy as anyone but I think that Pope Francis deserves credit for managing to circumvent the wishes of the Fatima sceptics who believe that politicians can outshine God in converting Russia.

We will see soon enough how Heaven rewards this consecration. I prefer to trust that God will reward the Pope's effort to do His will.

 

perhaps with this consecration God will grant us a 7-year moratorium to convert us; until the 100th anniversary of Our Lady's apparition to Sister Lucia in Spain is completed; where she effectively asked for the consecration of Russia

 

I must say when I saw the text of the consecration my eyes watered and I didn’t finish reading it. I’m glad that people here are more punctilious than I am. I had assumed that if PF consecrates Russia to the IHM and the bishops go along with it, it will be fine. I’m saying a novena to OL Fatima adding prayers for peace in Ukraine. It ends on the eve of the consecration. I think PF asked everyone to join in so I am. I’m begging God for a torrent of graces and stream of miracles because we need them desperately.

Europe has lost the Faith and there is widespread blasphemy and apostasy. In the West we deserve punishment from God. If ONLY we had godly leaders to lead us from our selfish addictions - there has to be a new mindset. Consider the outcry when abortion is prohibited in certain states of the US. We need the Holy Spirit to intervene. So let’s all pray that this Consecration bears good fruit.

December
1940
Sr. Lucia writes letter to Pius XII, saying that Our Lord Himself requests the Pope to "consecrate the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, with a special mention for Russia, and order that all the Bishops of the world do the same in union with Your Holiness."

Sr Lucia says that Jesus himself asked this.

The wording is fine.

The only question is it OK that he asks, not orders, the Bishops.

My guess is that this will have a profound impact, who knows if it prevents WW3 that might have happened otherwise.

But I don't think the definitive conversion of Russia and the triumph comes until the Warning and Miracle happens.

Just my opinion. I pray I am wrong, and the Triumph comes immediately on Friday.

 

I didn't know that, it changes my perspective on the consecration that Francis will make.

 

Right!
It boils down to it being a prayer to God,
in very desperate times, but not overlooking the fact that the Consecration to the Immaculate Heart has been desired by Heaven.
When we pray, we must be prepared to accept the outcomes. The answers to prayer belong to God.
