Moses and Luisa

How did Moses pray?

From Moses we learn that “praying” means “speaking with God”. At the burning bush God entered into a real conversation with Moses and gave him an assignment. Moses raised objections and asked questions. Finally God revealed to him his holy name. Just as Moses then came to trust God and enlisted wholeheartedly in his service, so we too should pray and thus go to God’s school.

The bible mentions Moses’ name 767 times so central is he as the liberator and lawgiver of the people of Israel. At the same time Moses was also a great intercessor for his people. In prayer he received his commission; from prayer he drew his strength. Moses had an intimate, personal relationship with God: “The Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend” (Ex 33:11a). Before Moses acted or instructed the people, he withdrew to the mountain to pray. Thus he is the original example of contemplative prayer. (YOUCAT question 472)

BOOK OF HEAVEN

LUISA-READING-HOLY-SCRIPTUE

 

Volume 21 – April 8, 1927
How all the figures and symbols of the Old Testament symbolized the children of the Divine Will (linked to Luisa). How Adam, from a high point, fell to the lowest point.

        I (Luisa) was following the acts that the Divine Will had done in all Creation, and I was also searching for the Acts It had done in the First Father Adam, as well as all those It had done in all the Saints of the Old Testament, especially those in which the Supreme Volition had made Its Power, Its Strength, Its Vivifying Virtue, stand out.

And my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me: “My daughter (Luisa), the greatest figures of the Old Testament, while being images that veiled the future Messiah, enclosed also the Gifts, the Image, and Symbolized All the Gifts that the children of the Supreme Fiat would Possess. When he was created, Adam was the True and Perfect Image of the children of My Kingdom.

Abraham was symbol of the Privileges and the Heroism of the children of My Divine Will. And calling Abraham to a Promised Land Flowing with milk and honey, making him the Owner of that Land, a land so Fecund as to be enviable and aspired to by all other nations—everything was symbol of what I (God) would do with the children of My Divine Will.

Jacob was another symbol of them; in fact, as the twelve tribes of Israel would descend from him, from their midst the future Redeemer was to be born, who was to bind again the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat to My children.

Joseph was symbol of the dominion that the children of My Divine Will would have; and just as he did not let many peoples—and also his ungrateful brothers—perish of starvation, so will the children of the Divine Fiat have dominion and be the ones who will not let the peoples perish that will ask for the bread of My Divine Will from them.

Moses was the Image of the Power (of the children of the Divine Will);

Samson, symbol of the Strength of the children of My Divine Will;

David symbolized the Reigning of them.

All the Prophets symbolized the Grace, the communications, the intimacies with God that, more than they did, the children of My Divine Fiat would Possess.

“See, all these were but symbols—images of them; what will happen when the Lives of these symbols will come out?

After all these came the Celestial Lady (Mary), the Sovereign Empress, the Immaculate, the Spotless—My Mother. She (Mary) was not Symbol or Image, but the Reality—the True Life, the First Privileged Daughter of My Divine Will; and in the Queen of Heaven I looked at the generation of the children of My Kingdom. She (Mary) was the First Incomparable Creature, who Possessed, Intact, the Life of the Supreme Volition, and therefore She deserved to conceive the Eternal Word, and to Mature within Her Maternal Heart the Generation of the children of the Eternal Fiat. Then came My very Life, in which the Kingdom was established that these fortunate children were to Possess.

“From all this you can comprehend how the Primary Purpose of everything that God did from the beginning of the Creation of the world, and that He does and will do, is to form the Kingdom of His Divine Will in the midst of creatures. These are all Our (The Triune God’s) aims—this is Our Divine Will; and to these children will all Our Goods, Our Prerogatives, Our Likeness, be Given. And if I (Jesus) call you (Luisa) to follow all the Acts that My Divine Will has done, both in the Creation of the Universe and in the Generation of the creatures, not excluding either those that It did in My Celestial Mother, or those that It did in My very Life, it is to Centralize all of Its Acts in you (Luisa), to give them to you (Luisa) as Gift, so as to be able to Release from you (Luisa), all together, the Goods that a Divine Will can Possess, in order to Form the Kingdom of the Eternal Fiat with Decorum, Honor and Glory. Therefore, be attentive in following My Divine Will.”

Volume 18 – 8/9/25 – Now, while I was fusing myself in the Holy Divine Volition in order to requite God in love for everything He had done in Creation for love of creatures, a thought was telling me that it was not necessary to do that; that this way of praying was not pleasing to my Jesus; that these are inventions of my mind.  And my always lovable Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:  “My daughter, you must know that this way of praying – that is, to requite God in love for all the things created by Him – is a divine right, and it enters the first duty of the creature.  The Creation was made for love of man; even more, Our love was so great that, had it been necessary, We would have created as many heavens, as many suns, stars, seas, earths, plants and all the rest, for as many creatures as were to come to the light of this world, so that each one of them might have a Creation for herself, a universe of her own.  And, in fact, when everything was created, Adam was the only spectator of all Creation – he could enjoy all the good he wanted.  And if We did not do so, it was because man could enjoy everything anyway, as if it were his own, even if others also might enjoy it.  In fact, who cannot say, ‘the sun is mine’, and enjoy the light of the sun as much as he wants?  Or, ‘the water is mine’, and quench his thirst and make use of it there where he needs it?  Or, ‘the sea, the earth, the fire, the air, are my things’, and so with many other things created by Me?  And if it seems that man lacks something, that life suffers hardships, it is because of sin which, barring the way of my benefits, prevents the things created by Me from being abundant for the ungrateful creature.

So, given all this – that in all created things God bound His love toward each creature – hers was the duty to requite God with her little love, with her gratitude, with her ‘thank You’ to the One who had done so much for her.  Not requiting God in love for everything He has done for man in Creation, is the first fraud that the creature makes against God; it is to usurp His gifts without even recognizing where they come from, and the One who has loved her so much.  Therefore, this is the first duty of the creature, and this duty is so indispensable and important, that She who took to heart all Our glory, Our defense, Our interest, did nothing but go around through all the spheres, from the smallest to the greatest thing created by God, in order to impress Her requital of love, of glory, of thanksgiving, for all and in the name of all human generations.  Ah! yes, it was precisely my Celestial Mama who filled Heaven and earth with the requital for everything that God had done in Creation.  After Her came my Humanity, which fulfilled this duty so sacrosanct, in which the creature had so very much failed, and rendered my Celestial Father benevolent toward guilty man.  So, these were my prayers, and those of my inseparable Mama.  Don’t you want, then, to repeat my very prayers?  Even more, this is why I have called you into my Will – that you may associate yourself with Us, and follow and repeat Our acts.”

Volume 21 – 3/16/27 – (Jesus says to Luisa):  By withdrawing from My Will, man rejected a universal good; he took away from God the universal glory, adoration and love.  Now, in order to give back this Kingdom, these universal goods, first He wants, by right, a creature to whom, as she lives in this Fiat, He may communicate this universal act; and as she loves, adores, glorifies, prays, she may constitute herself, together with His very Will, universal love for all, adoration and glory for each creature; and diffusing her prayer as if each one were praying, she prays in a universal way that the Kingdom of the Divine Fiat may come into the midst of creatures.

“When a good is universal, universal acts are needed in order to obtain it, and only in My Will are there these acts.  As you love in It, your love extends wherever My Will is; and My Will feels your love in every place, It feels Itself followed everywhere, therefore It feels in you the original love, just as It had established for the creature to love It in the beginning of Creation.  It feels Its own echo in your love, that does not know how to love with little and finite love, but with infinite and universal love; It feels the first love of Adam before he sinned, when he did nothing but repeat the echo of the Will of His Creator; and It feels as though drawn by these universal acts that follow It everywhere, to come to reign again in the midst of creatures.

“This is why I have chosen you, My daughter—and from their same stock:  not only to manifest to you the knowledges, the goods, the prodigies of this Fiat, but so that, by living in It, with your universal acts, you might incline My Will to come to reign again in the midst of creatures, as in the beginning of Creation.  Therefore, to you it is given to unite everyone, to embrace everyone—so that, finding everyone and everything in you, just as everything is found in My Will, you may place harmony among them, they may exchange the kiss of peace, and My Kingdom will be restored in the midst of creatures.  Here, then, the necessity of the knowledges, of the wonders of My Divine Fiat:  to dispose the creatures, to attract them to desire, to want—to long for this Kingdom and the Goods that are in It; as well as the necessity that I first choose one creature, who, by living in My Will, with her universal acts that My Will Itself administers to her, which are Divine acts, may impetrate the Kingdom of My Fiat for creatures.

“I act like a king whose people have been rebellious against his laws.  Making use of his power, the king puts some in prison, some he sends into exile, he removes from some the right of possession—in sum, he gives to everyone the penalty that they justly deserve.  Now, in the long run, the king feels compassion for his people; he chooses one of his most faithful ministers, and opening up his sorrowful heart, he says to him:  ‘I want to trust you.  Listen:  I have decided to give you the mandate to call back to me the poor exiled ones, to release the prisoners, to give back the right to possess the goods that I removed from them.  If they are faithful to me, I will redouble their goods, their happiness.’

“And so he converses at length with this faithful minister, arranging everything that needs to be done; more so, since this minister was always after the king, praying him on behalf of his people, to give grace of forgiveness and reconciliation to all.  Then, after having arranged everything in secret, they call the other ministers, giving them the order to let the beautiful news reach the people, in the prisons, in the exile:  how the king wants to make peace with them; how he wants each one to return to his place; and all the good that the king wants to give them.  And as the beautiful news spreads, they desire, they long for, they dispose themselves with their acts to receive their freedom and the kingdom they had lost.  And while the news is spreading, the faithful minister is always after the king, beseeching him with incessant pleas to let the people receive the good established between the two of them.

“This is precisely what I have done; in fact, what can be done between two, one on one, in the secrecy of the sorrow and of the love of two beings who love each other and who want the same good, cannot be done with many.  A secret sorrow and love of your Jesus, united with the soul whom I choose, has such power:  I give, and she impetrates what is needed.  The secret between Me and you has matured the many knowledges I have given you about the Kingdom of My Divine Fiat; it has made your many acts rise again in It.  The secret between Me and you has allowed Me to pour out My sorrow, so long, and of so many centuries, in which, while My Will was in the midst of creatures, and was Life of each one of their acts, they did not recognize It, keeping It in a state of continuous agony.

“My daughter, a sorrow of Mine, poured out in the secrecy of the heart of one who loves Me, has the virtue of changing justice into mercy; and My bitternesses change into sweetnesses.  Then, after I trusted you, arranging everything together with you, I called My Ministers, giving them the order to make known to the people the beautiful news about My Supreme Fiat—the many knowledges about It:  how I call everyone, that they may come into My Kingdom, get out of the prison—of the exile of their will, take possession of the lost goods, so as to live no longer unhappy and as slaves of the human will, but happy and free in My Divine Will.

“And just as this secret has had the virtue of allowing us to tell each other, heart to heart, the many wonderful manifestations about the Eternal Fiat, as this long secret of ours comes out, it will have such impact on the people that, amazed, they themselves will pray with sighs that My Kingdom may come to put an end to all their evils.”
