One of my greatest encounters in the "Miracle of CommunionFire"

It was 2014 during a CommunionFire encounter with Jesus while having Communion with my wife Camille in our home. Dining with the Lord upon the bread He calls His flesh, therefore so do I, I saw Jesus in a n octagonal library room that for some reason made me think is this what the rooms in the Library of Congress look like? It was austere and made of 8 walls and a doorway, probably a study room for privacy from the public. Perhaps 10-12 feet high and at 10oclock from where I saw the Lord, the door was open inviting sunlight from another entry/exit door to the outdoors. The light cascaded down the steps probably because the sun was just where it needed to be.

As I took drink of the wine that had become His precious blood, again through the miracle He invites us all to participate in, I felt the fire of His passion transfusing into my bloodstream to quicken me to become the righteousness of God in Christ.  He had become sin for me that I might become a partaker of His divine nature. 

As I waited for a moment I saw coming from the staircase a scroll surfing on the rays of light from the sunbeam. As it entered the room above our heads it unfurled and out fell the person of a young woman. She stood next to her Son Jesus and Jesus introduced me to His Mother, the Holy Virgin Mary! 

About 5 Months later the same vision repeated itself as Camille and I share the Table of the Lord together.  It was early morning and this time from the scroll came Saint Peter, Saint Ephraim of Syria, Holy Mother Mary and Saint Joseph. As they stood with Jesus across from me, Mary spoke to me directly for the very first time. She looked at me and with a gentle smile in a soft and caring voice said, "Bob, be bold." That was it and I felt almost translated into a new dimension of faith. About 8 months later I began to go on an evening prayer walk to pray the Rosary. That was almost 3 years ago now on June 20th 2015 and I still take my evening prayer walks praying the Rosary every night. I have to say of a truth, I now know my Savior more personally and intimately because I have met His Mother who now has become my Mother in Christ and my Queen of heaven who is preparing the Bride for her Son. 

preDESTINATION. What is this? Not what you think.

One Morsel and One Sip at at Time
What is God's plan for your life?

To find out, you need to sit down with Him at His Table and He will show you, He will reveal it to you.

"preDESTINATION" happens at the table of the Lord. We feed on His presence and become more and more the person He created us to be! This transformation is understanding how God gets us into the destiny He always intended,

Predestination, prior to understanding our eternal destiny, has to do with living our lives within the framework of Communion with Jesus or living our lives apart from an intimate relationship with Him.

Each of our lives were created and packaged to be unwrapped, unfolded, and understood through a real and personal, one-on-one, intimate relationship with Jesus. When Jesus is the chief cornerstone of your life you get to find out from Him where you fit into the plan He has for you. For this to happen it involves all of creation, all of Bible history, and a life-time of Jesus revealing the details as you spend time with Him. 

In over 45 years not one course of study, book or teacher has ever had the golden ticket for knowing God's purpose for my life. I was given the same rhetoric you have been given, "God's will is a mystery so just trust and obey for there's no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey!"

Then there is the Romans 8:28 catchall and don't worry, "All things work together for good (and oh yeah) - "for those who are the called" (then don't forget part c) - "according to his purpose". 

International
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

"Communion-centric"

The Lord created you that way! Within you He has bundled His specific purpose inside the package that He calls "you". "You" are My beloved!" "I have great plans for "you". For the "you" to evolve there needs to be a miraculous connection with He who made you. The connection begins or began the moment you turn from the temporal and believe in the eternal love God has for you. You believe Jesus and open your life to Him, he saves you and promises you eternal life. When He becomes your Good Shepherd He leads you to His Table.


It is there that the relationship happens. At His Table in Communion, we feed on His love and life, This is where we encounter Him. It is  the place of His Presence or Glory! In His Glory we are transformed from one degree of glory to another. Another way of saying the same thing is that experiencing the revelation of His life within us when we eat and drink the meal He has prepares for each one of us. He gave His life so that we might receive His life which includes our current and eternal destiny. 

How can this happen?

We feed on "revelation" given to us from Him. It happens morsel by morsel as the bread of His Body and sip by precious sip in the revelation of His love in the wine of His blood.  We feed and drink on what is eternal, now! You don't have to wait until this temporal life is over; He not only wants us to share in His love and life now but within the purpose and destiny He pre-designed for you before you were ever born. 


4 obstacles that will hinder you are all lies and can be placed beneath and washed and cleansed by the power of His blood right now as you read.

Lie one: Your sin keeps you from His plan, purpose and most importantly a 24/7 relationship in Communion with Him. 

Overcoming truth: "It is finished" Jesus took all your sin, past, present and future upon Himself. He paid your full debt in FULL. You now live by grace through His faithfulness! 

Lies two-four: Your shame, guilt and condemnation will not allow you to believe or have communion.. You never stop sinning. You are not worthy!

Overcoming truth: "It is finished" means Jesus did it all. He paid the price and forgives ALL sin, not just past and present but future as well. With the forgiveness is the cleansing power in the flow of His shed blood and poured out waters of His divine mercy.  

In Communion the Holy Spirit reveals what Jesus wants to show you and speak to you about. Everything He shares with you is life giving, purpose driven, and full of love and acceptance. You are free of sin, guilt, shame and condemnation.

If you wake up to any of these 4 hindrances, start everyday with Communion and feed upon His bread of life and wine of love. Lies are real but only work in the temporal time zone, The Truth/Jesus is both then, now and forever! 


Be Bold Believe! You are the righteousness of God in Christ. He who knew no sin was made to be sin for you. You are the righteousness of God in Him. The law judges but the spirit gives life. You are no longer "under the laws demands" but guided by believing that He loves you and gave Himself for you.  His oceans of love pound the shores of your heart with waves of grace unceasingly and when storms come up those waves become even greater and mightier.

When I woke up this morning the Lord said, "I have put my strength in your legs so you can get up and walk in My victory! I rose up and walked normally for the first time since open heart surgery New Year's Eve! The message is that we walk in His victory when we follow Him! I am walking and leaping and praising God! Alleluia!


The influence of the presence of Jesus purges out the poisons and toxins of my life before Christ and infuses me with the blessings and promises that bring about the new creation and purpose He has destined for me. This is the same for all who will come to Him and believe, even a little bit. .

The Math of The Miracle Meal

One morsel of bread from bread we offer Him can feed forever. It is the bread of heaven, the body of Jesus, the flesh of the Lord. It never grows stale and has the power to multiply into morsel sized revelation, sandwich sized, meal sized, feast size and banquet sized revelation. One morsel will keep feeding you forever, It is the bread of His medicine to heal and make you whole. It is the New Manna of His Flesh hat feeds us with the greater life of His realm, His Kingdom. 

One sip of wine offered to Him, comes back as the eternal drink of His life and love. When we sip, He pours! When we drink - we are transformed. Like the bread the wine never loses its capability to inebriate our spirit forever. More and more, we are so filled with His lie and love - it pours out from us like a fountain of blessing in all of our life and onto all we come into contact with. Its no mere common wine - its miracle empowered wine of His holy blood. It has within is the power to forgive, heal, deliver, provide, prepare as well as to transform and in the last day to raise us up to realize the full reality of eternal life. 

One day - very very very sooooooon! We will drink with Him where He is as His Bride without a single spot wrinkle or blemish made clean by the Blood of The Lamb! (It works in eternity as well as Right Now!)

Novenas: Learning to Wait on the Lord while looking for Him in the womb of intercessory prayer

"Always pray and never give up." Luke 18:1 "Seek His face continually".Psalm 27:8
What is a Novena?
It a form of worshipful intercession consisting of special prayer focus or services on nine successive days.
​
This came from the nine days between Jesus Ascension and the outpouring the Holy Spirit in the Upper Room. What do you suppose was going on in the Upper Room during that time.

The 120 were "waiting for the Holy Spirit just as Jesus had directed them to do as He was ascending to heaven..

"Waiting" is a form of prayer. "wait on the Lord and be of good courage".

There is lots to learn about here especially since, in the womb of the Upper Room the Church was about to be born. Intercession is also like a womb where answer to prayer is born.

Most who were there, they knew Jesus, what He did and what He said for no more than 3 years. But Mother Mary had know Jesus every day for 33 years! Can you imagine what she might have shared with those who were hidden with her awaiting the birth of the Church?

It boggles the mind. Again, though pretty much a practice of the Roman Catholic Church, why not get on board with praying for nine days in agreement with others for the persecuted church around the world?

The story of this miraculous egg-thin fresco of Our Lady starts hundreds of years ago. In fact, the origins of Genazzano date back to the times of the Roman emperors.


This special invocation of Our Lady of Good Counsel of Genazzano is for those who are searching for good advice. Her feast day is on April 26. So please say a novena to Her.
  • Novena to Our Lady of Good Counsel
A view of the town of Genazzano, resting place of the miraculous painting of Our Lady.

Because of its proximity to Rome, the city was chosen by many patricians and imperial courtiers as a site for their country villas. The vast gardens surrounding these villas often served as the stage for perverse feasts, pagan games and heathen rituals in honor of the gods to whom the Romans attributed the fertility of their fields.


One of these celebrations was held every April 25 in honor of the goddess Flora or Venus. For this event, people of all social classes—freemen and slaves, patricians and plebeians—gathered together for a great feast. This practice gradually dissolved and the temples fell into ruins as the life-giving breath of Christianity regenerated the peoples of Europe.

In the third century, an order was given to build a shrine dedicated to the Mother of God under the tender invocation of Mother of Good Counsel on the ruins of the Roman temples.
As the years went by, the city became more populous and the shrine grew in fame. During the Middle Ages, the Franciscans and the Augustinians founded monasteries nearby. With the passing of years, the primitive temple erected in honor of the Mother of Good Counsel began to show signs of disrepair. Moreover, as the shrine was small, the faithful built larger and richer churches for their solemn functions.

In 1356, about a century before the appearance of the miraculous painting that would introduce Genazzano into the annals of marvels in the Church, Prince Pietro Giordan Colonna, whose family had acquired lordship of the city, assigned the most ancient church of the city and its parish to the care of the Hermits of St. Augustine.

The faithful would thereby have the necessary pastoral assistance, and repairs could be made on the old church.

Although the prayers of the faithful intensified, financial difficulties prevented the necessary and urgent restoration of the ancient temple. But the Mother who gives wise counsel in every circumstance and attentively provides for the necessities of men chose a Third Order Augustinian, Petruccia de Nocera, to carry out a supernatural prodigy that would bring about the much-desired restoration.


Petruccia had been left a modest fortune following the death of her husband in 1436. Living alone, she dedicated most of her time to prayer and services in the church of the Mother of Good Counsel. It grieved her to see the deplorable state of the sacred premises, and she prayed fervently that they would be restored.


Finally, she resolved to take the initiative. After obtaining permission from the friars, she donated her goods to initiate the restoration in the hope that others would help complete it once it was commenced.


A plan was drawn up for the building of a magnificent church. However, once that arduous undertaking had begun, Petruccia, who was already eighty years old, found that her generous offering was scarcely enough to complete the first phase of the new construction. To make matters worse, no one came forth to help.


To her dismay, the building had hardly risen three feet when construction came to a halt due to lack of resources. Her friends and neighbors began to ridicule her, and detractors accused her of imprudence. Others severely reprimanded her in public. To all of them she would say: "My dear children, do not put too much importance on this apparent misfortune. I assure you that before my death the Blessed Virgin and our holy father Augustine will finish the church begun by me."


On April 25, 1467, the feast day of the city's patron, Saint Mark, a solemn celebration began with Mass. It was Saturday, and the crowd began to gather in front of the church of the Mother of Good Counsel. The only discrepant note in the celebration was the unfinished work of Petruccia.


At about four in the afternoon, everyone heard the chords of a beautiful melody that seemed to come from heaven. The people looked up toward the towers of the churches and saw a white cloud that shone with a thousand luminous rays; it gradually neared the stupefied crowd to the sound of an exceptionally beautiful melody. The cloud descended on the church of the Mother of Good Counsel and poised over the wall of the unfinished chapel of Saint Biagio, which Petruccia had started.


The miraculous image of Our Lady of Genazzano.

Suddenly, the bells of the old tower began to ring by themselves, and the other bells of the town rang miraculously in unison. The rays that emanated from the little cloud faded away, and the cloud itself gradually vanished, revealing a beautiful object to the enchanted gaze of the spectators.


It was a painting that represented Our Lady tenderly holding her Divine Son in her arms. Almost immediately, the Virgin Mary began to cure the sick and grant countless consolations, the memory of which was recorded for posterity by the local ecclesiastical authority.


The news of the painting and its miracles spread throughout the province and beyond, attracting multitudes. Some cities formed enthusiastic processions to see the picture that the people called the Madonna of Paradise because of its celestial entrance into the city. Numerous alms were donated as an answer to the unwavering confidence that Our Lady had inspired in Petruccia.


Amidst the general enthusiasm caused by the painting, Our Lady wished to divulge the true origin of the marvelous fresco to her devotees. Two foreigners named Giorgio and De Sclavis entered the city among a group of pilgrims that had come from Rome.
They wore strange clothes and spoke a foreign tongue, saying they had arrived in Rome earlier that year from Albania. While most people had refused to believe their story, it had a special significance for the inhab
itants of Genazzano.
