Divine Appeal Reflection - 233
Today, consider in Divine Appeal 233: "The Red Lucifer torments you, he is cunning and clever. He is very aggressive to you because when you win just a single soul for Me he loses. He is very aware of the fact that his time is very short. He is preparing a great deception for all My Eternal Father’s creation."
Wake up, soldier of Christ! You are not living in neutral territory. You are on a battlefield, and the enemy—Lucifer himself—has marked you because you belong to the Light. Our Adorable Jesus, pulls back the veil to show us what many prefer to ignore: Satan is not passive. He is cunning, clever, and filled with fury because he knows his time is short. Every moment you draw closer to Christ, every time you help even one soul turn toward Heaven, you inflict a loss on the enemy’s kingdom. That’s why the attacks increase when you’re doing something right. This isn’t a sign to retreat—it’s confirmation that you are dangerous to hell.
This spiritual truth is not theoretical—it plays out in real, gritty ways. You begin fasting, and suddenly you’re overcome with frustration or distractions. You share your faith, and relationships get strained. You lead someone back to confession, and you’re hit with spiritual dryness or unexpected chaos. These are not coincidences. They’re backlash. But take heart—this is the cross that saints embraced. St. Gianna Beretta Molla chose death to give her child life. St. Oscar Romero preached truth until the day a bullet met him at the altar. St. José Sánchez del Río shouted “Viva Cristo Rey!” with shackled feet and bloodied back. They didn't flee spiritual warfare; they stood firm because they knew eternity was at stake—and they trusted the triumph of Christ.
Our Adorable Jesus warns of a great deception—a looming spiritual fog meant to mislead even the faithful. This is not a distant prophecy; it’s unfolding now. We see it in a world that exalts pleasure over purity, feelings over faith, and self over sacrifice. It’s the lie that you can have God without the Gospel, or peace without truth. Yet in this fog, God raises saints to shine like beacons. Blessed Carlo Acutis, immersed in modern technology, used his gifts not for self-glory but to lead others to the Eucharist. He reminds us that even youth, even the digital world, can become battlegrounds for glory. In a time of confusion, clarity is radical—and holiness, revolutionary.
This battle is fierce, but do not be afraid. Saints are not superhumans—they are sinners who chose love over fear, faith over comfort. So can you. When you forgive, when you speak truth, when you kneel before the Eucharist, when you love those who hurt you—you punch holes in hell’s gates. The enemy is loud because he is losing. Our Adorable Jesus has already won the war. All He asks is that you stay in the fight. Cling to the sacraments. Stay close to Our Lady. Read the Word. Be dangerous—for love’s sake. Heaven is watching, and eternity is worth everything.
Prayer
Our Adorable Jesus, awaken our hearts to the urgency of this battle. Give us boldness like the saints to fight with love, truth, and perseverance. Let us not fear the enemy, but trust in Your triumph. And in we, may Your Kingdom come and evil be shattered by grace.
Sr. Anna Ali of the Most Holy Eucharist, intercede for us.
