Today hardly anyone prays. To begin to pray is something that almost nobody does and I, however, gave also in this example. I often prayed in solitary places to raise Myself to Heaven and communicate with Him.
Prayer gives light and wisdom and helps in trials, but today not even My consecrated ones pray. Prayer is food for the soul. It nourishes it like nothing else because to pray is to elevate the heart to God and to communicate with Him. That is what is most needed, prayer. Prayer is a most effective weapon against evil. Christians should pray assiduously.
I am Jesus of Nazareth and I invite you, my children, to prayer. Praying is not the same as praying. To pray is to repeat prayers and to pray is to elevate the heart to your Heavenly Father, to speak with Him or with Me in the Tabernacle. My faithful Christians must pray, they must communicate with their Eternal Father and tell Him their sorrows and worries. He listens to you as an earthly father would listen to you, therefore, turn to the One Who can do all things.
When you begin to pray, invoke My Holy Spirit so that He may help you in prayer and give you the necessary assistance. Call upon Him as often as necessary and He will supply you where you do not reach. The devil attacks the souls who do not pray and defeats them - even if they are good - but he cannot defeat those who pray
. Therefore, when you begin to pray, you must be firm in your decision to keep yourselves in prayer, because otherwise My mortal enemy will give you a thousand ideas so that you will abandon prayer and do something else.
Prayer is a shield to avoid doing evil, whoever communicates with My Father or comes to My Tabernacle to speak to Me, will not be a soul who does evil to anyone, because he will have the lights of Heaven that I will provide him.
The souls of prayer recognize themselves from those who are not, their composure, their detachment from earthly things, their detachment from material things and, when they are not praying, all their activities are a continuous prayer. They convert their obligations into a continuous prayer, as in the case of My Holy Mother, who made a prayer of her earthly life. The souls who pray can no longer do without prayer, they realize how necessary it is and the effects it has on their spirits. They wish to be in the presence of God and feel joyful because they live an eternity ahead. These souls have found the hidden pearl and leave everything to never lose it again.
Their prayer becomes less and less selfish and more and more universal, and above all, they seek God's glory more than their own interests. Because prayer is changing them to think on the divine plane and they disdain the earthly.
They live in the world but long for the things of Heaven, because prayer makes them like heavenly things to the detriment of earthly things, which they only use because they are necessary. They are souls who pray at all times, while walking, while waiting their turn in a queue, while traveling, etc.
My children, taste the sweetness of prayer. Discover for yourselves its necessity and greatness. Whoever prays and is persevering in doing so, will see how his life is transformed internally, they are souls of interior life and, they themselves notice it, they can no longer do without prayer and are constantly blessed by My Father who loves them dearly. Children, pray!
