An Observation of Our Current Situation in the World and Fatima

[Dawn Marie]

The observation: At Fatima when Our Lady appeared she wore the Star of Esther on her dress.  We all know there are no coincidences with God so Our Lady had to have a very good reason why she chose to wear that particular emblem which would lead us to look particularly to the story of Esther who was a per-figurment of Our Lady in the Old Testament.

It was Marianna Bartold who first made souls aware of the secret hiding in plain sight about the Star of Esther.  I remember how blown away John Vennari was at the discovery and how excited he was for Marianna to write about it.  We posted it here on the Crusaders a long time ago.  I'll look for the link and post it at the bottom of this page.

If we look closely at what happened in the Book of Esther many things mirror the situation we find ourselves in at this moment and time all around the world. 

In the story of Esther the day set aside for the destruction of the Jews decreed by Aman the Aggagite (a secret diabolical enemy of the Jews) could not be undone even at the order of the King simply because there was not enough time to stop what had already been set in motion.  What was that order?  The order was for all Jews were to be annihilated and that no Jew was permitted to defend themselves against the attack.  Esther's uncle Mordecai begged Esther to go before the King and intercede for the Jews so as to stop the annihilation.  Esther did so but not before asking all the Jews and her personal maidens to pray and fast.

In the end the King learned of the evil of Aman and had him hung by the very gallows he prepared for Esther's uncle.  However the attack on the Jews could not be stopped.  This being the case the King put Mordecai in charge while he was forced to leave for war and Mordecai sent out a decree telling the Jews that they could now defend themselves against the attack.  I believe I read that no Jew died that day but that Aman had been hanged and in the attack every one of his sons were slaughtered (10 or 12 in number).  The day was thereafter set aside as the day of Purim which all Jews celebrate to this day.

If we step back and look at the situation we are currently in there are similarities to be found.  One might argue that with the introduction of the plandemic using the covid virus the evil powers that be have set in motion their wicked plan to annihilate and enslave most all mankind.  Their hope is to kill off 90% of the population and enslave the rest.

I would argue that while we can protest and rally and sign this petition and that we ultimately have no human defense against this slaughter because all bases have been covered by these minions of Satan such that they have positioned their comrades in every aspect of life as we know it from local school boards to local judges to attorney's general to federal judges to supreme court justices to public school teachers, to giant untouchable corporations to other communist countries such as China etc and even to doctors, nurses, law enforcement, our military, the FBI, the DOD, the DOJ and every resource imaginable where one might turn for help.

So I would ask just where the tables would turn in favor of good on the secular or temporal level?  Exactly where is our defense to be found speaking in human help?  I would say we are surrounded and honestly humanly speaking we are unable to defend ourselves by human means just as the Jews were unable to defend themselves against their attackers by not being allowed to have weapons.

So what do the Jews do? They turn to the queen and ask her to intercede with the king in order that they might be spared.  (So what do faithful Catholics do? They turn to the Queen of Heaven and ask her to intercede for us to Christ the King) 

What are the Jews fearing?  Annihilation.   What are we facing right now?  Annihilation. Just as Our Lady of Fatima said would happen if men did not convert and Russia was not consecrated.  Thus far neither conversions nor the consecration have happened.

What does Esther ask of the Jews BEFORE she will go to the king?  She asks that they fast and pray.  What does Our Lady ask of us BEFORE she will go to the THE King?  She asks that we pray (the rosary) and do penance.

What happens when Esther goes to the king? He tells her that whatever she asks of him he will grant her.  What happens when Our Lady intercedes for us to her Son, the King of kings? It is a fact that whatever she asks of Him He can not refuse her.

What is the result of Esther's intercession?  The Jews are spared but not from the fight.  The day of their annihilation had already begun and could not be stopped but God gave the Jews the victory in the end and the evil seeded souls were destroyed by the Jews who fought back and the evil instead was annihilated.

What will be the result of our praying and fasting and doing penance in asking the Mother of God for the conversion of sinners and the consecration of Russia?  The result will be the same.  But we MUST do as she asked and pray the rosary, do penance and fast in order to obtain her intercession for this request.

A long time ago I heard a talk given by Father Gruner in which he explained that the allotted time to do the consecration in order to spare the world the great chastisement had passed, however according to Sister Lucia the act of the consecration would be late (not too late just simply late) and would happen only after the chastisement had begun, hence precluding it from keeping it from happening altogether.  Yet she said what would be accomplished by that act would be this, it would mitigate the severity of the chastisement dramatically and would cause the chastisement to come to an end much, much faster than planned and we would not see the punishment as it was designed in its full fruition.

While fighting back is noble and just at the moment it will be of little help until the Mother of God finally intercedes for us to her Son and obtains that grace of the consecration.  Once that happens it will give us the graces to see this evil defeated and it will be Satan's end rather than ours.

So pray, fast, do penance and have confidence.  We are in the midst of great evil running amok and with impunity but it will not stay this way.  Turn to Her, our only hope and know she will answer and she will TRIUMPH.

Pray, fast, penance , confidence I turn to you my Immaculate Heart of Mary with love and reparation.  In the Name of the Precious Blood of Jesus.  Fiat!  Amen. 

[Michael]

Thank you for posting.  Victory will only come through prayer, fasting, and penance.  This is primarily a spiritual war.  Just as it was at Lepanto the Rosary is the key.

While fighting back is noble and just at the moment it will be of little help until the Mother of God finally intercedes for us to her Son and obtains that grace of the consecration.  Once that happens it will give us the graces to see this evil defeated and it will be Satan's end rather than ours.

At this point I don't think God will allow us to fight back, if one will notice that in the U.S., that has the most well armed citizenry on earth no one is doing anything, we are divided and scattered, many are confused. I believe that God wants it this way until we can see, 1. the situation is what it is because of all of our sins and 2. We must completely turn back to God and trust him and His Holy Mother.

So as Our Lady of Fatima said about Francisco  "He must say many Rosaries" so should we, and those who can should fast.

[Stephen Ross Armstrong]

Thankyou for sharing this story of Esther. The Holy Rosary is our sure protection  and source of hope in these difficult days of seemingly relentless trials. Hold firm the hands of our Lord- Jesus and our Queen-The Blessed Virgin Mary each day and you will fear nothing. 

[Flavia Talladen Schott]

Thank you, Dawn Marie! Exactly! We are called to pray, fast and do penance in reparation for all sins of the world.

Immaculate Heart of Mary,  be our salvation! 

[Serena Joseph-Harris]

Mother of God, intercede for us Amen.

Interesting excerpt:

"In the book of Esther, the houses of Saul and Agag interact again. Mordechai and Esther were relatives and they were both descended from the tribe of Benjamin. What is fascinating is that they were descended from Kish, the father of King Saul of Israel, who spared Agag .  Haman, the advisor to the king of Persia who wanted to kill the Jews, is called an “Agagite”. Harper’s Bible Dictionary notes the family connections between Saul and Agag on one hand, and Mordechai and Haman centuries later. Saul and Agag lived in the 11th century BC while Mordechai and Haman lived as enemies in the 5th century BC. Is it not likely that Haman had a deep grudge against the Jews because one of Mordechai’s ancestors (the Benjaminite king Saul) had killed many Amalekites and his own ancestor, King Agag?

This means that Saul’s failure to thoroughly wipe out the house of King Agag of Amalek almost resulted in the extermination of the Jews approximately six centuries later when a descendant of Agag convinced the Persian King to issue a proclamation against the lives of the Jews in the Persian Empire. While God’s intervention resulted in the tables being turned in such a way that the Jews were delivered and Haman and his ten sons were hanged on the gallows they had built to hang Mordechai, this entire episode would not have occurred if King Saul had zealously carried out God’s instructions in the 11th century BC. This is a classic example of things going wrong many centuries into the future when God’s laws are not initially obeyed."

[Dawn Marie]

The entire situation would have been avoided if King Saul had done exactly as God instructed him to do but instead Saul did his own will believing it was not necessary to kill all of the Amalekites nor did he see the reason God did not want him to keep the spoils of that people.  He therefore did not kill every man woman and child and as God instructed him and he kept the spoils of that people which God specifically told him NOT to do.

One might argue we in the Catholic Church are now suffering a similar situation because in 92 years not a single Pope has done what the Lord instructed him to do and consecrated Russia to the Immaculate Heart as well as releasing the Third Secret of Fatima.  Thereby we are now facing the dreaded annihilation Our Lady foretold would come to be if Heaven's will and direct command were not done.

Subject: Rosary Blast

Dear Faithful,

This is a good effort. His Excellency Bishop Williamson invites us to join the English faithful in saying TEN (10) Rosaries of FIFTEEN (15) decades each to be said over a shortened three days. It would be good if they were said at the same time that they are being said in England.

The intention seems to be for the Pope and Bishops and Priests, see Eleison comments below.

The attached chart shows the corresponding times in the different cities. As we are many time zones from England some of these rosaries are scheduled for unusual times. Please do what is possible for you. It would be good if family or other Catholics could join together for some of these rosaries as they intend to do in Brisbane.

Please forward this to Catholic contacts.

In Whanganui the faithful are welcome to come to St. Catherine's Chapel at these times when it is convenient for you. In the other Australia cities and Kuala Lumpur it may be difficult to get together.

God bless,

Fr. MacDonald

Maybe those of us who are able to do so could do it ...even if not 4 x 15 at least 2 x15 decades

[Dawn Marie]

Unfortunately this effort on Bp. Williamson's part has nothing to do with Fatima or the intention to consecrate Russia.  He states the intention simply: For the Pope, bishops, and priests.  While it is good to pray for the clergy it's just a general intention to pray for them.
