The Great October Battle is Upon Us! St. Michael, Defend Us in Battle!

The United States Grace Force was launched in the lead up to the 2016 Presidential election. We knew our Church and our country were becoming more and more vulnerable to the attack of Satan and his minions, especially after the devastating 2015 SCOTUS decision to redefine marriage for the first time in all of civilization. Sister Lucia (Fatima seer) wrote, “The final battle between the Lord and the reign of Satan will be about marriage and the family.”

The Latin phrase, motus in fine velocior, is commonly used to indicate the faster passing of the time at the end of an historical period. It also means, “Things accelerate toward the end.” We realized we are living through an historical hour which is not necessarily the end of times, but certainly could be marked as the end of an era. I wrote about the significance of the 100 years since Fatima, which many believe to be the “100 years of Satan.” I am among those who believe the 100 years of Satan began with Our Lady’s 1917 warning in Fatima. It was on October 13, 1884 — precisely 33 years before the 1917 “Miracle of the Sun” by Our Lady of Fatima — Pope Leo XIII had his vision about Satan given 100 years to destroy the Church. This was when Pope Leo XIII wrote the St. Michael prayer and ordered all to pray it after every Low Mass (Read about this HERE).

Just as we were heading into the final year (2017) of the “100 years of Satan,” the unlikely Presidential candidate was elected, and we were given our Constantine (See what that means HERE). As Blaise Joseph wrote, “American doesn’t need a President to make arguments for us. America just needs a president to give us the freedom to make our arguments without fear of being shouted down by the politically correct brigade.”

Christianity now felt supported, protected and empowered. We, boldly, professed we were, in fact, “One Nation, Under God!”

Satan’s Overreach

But, as we have seen, since then, the forces of evil knew they were losing and went into full blown panic mode … totally unhinged. We watched a 24/7 campaign to destroy the President, while Big Media, literally, “trained” the nation to hate him. We saw high level politicians inciting racial division and domestic terrorism, setting the nation in turmoil, in order to shift public opinion to seek “hope and change.” The fear mongering, especially by way of this virus, has reached historic proportions. Many believe the 2020 election was replete with fraud. We saw witches around the nation join forces, every month, to cast a spell against President Trump. We even discovered that evil planted the Arch of Baal on the grounds of our Nation’s Capitol. Truly, the demonic has been in overdrive!!

In the Church, anyone who is tuned-in finds themselves exceedingly concerned with the sexual abuse crisis and, what seems to be, the seizing of control by the progressive wing of the Church’s prelates. And, as a result, the “devout” of our Church are being persecuted. The last verse of Revelation 12 could not speak more clearly about these days: “Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring—those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus” (The Devout) -Revelation 12:17.

It’s unavoidable … Spiritual Warfare is Upon Us! And, I believe the battle of our lives is coming to a head in October. The reason I say this is because, in Satan’s panic to regain power, I believe he and his minions have overplayed their hand. We are now watching them being exposed. They have become so aggressive and arrogant that they turned a multitude of hearts against them. As a result, I believe we are very close to a collapse of this diabolical tyrannical regime. This is why we must act and pray as though EVERYTHING depends upon it!

Our Call to Be God’s “Holy League!”

October 7, 2021 is the 450th anniversary of the Battle of Lepanto. This was when, in 1571, the Turks saw an opportunity to invade and wipe out Christianity, as it was weak and divided at the time. What does that sound like? Of course, it is very much like our times. We were, as the expression goes, “Ripe for the picking,” and radical secularism is throwing everything at us to move in and wipe us out.

I can’t predict whether this collapse will occur in October, but I believe it is coming very soon. For our part, we must do what Pope Pius V was called to do in 1571. We must gather the remnant forces and be willing to make whatever sacrifices God is calling us to make, based on our present state in life. This, while we call upon our Lady and the power of the rosary, to intercede on our behalf.

Let’s accept our call to be God’s “Holy League!”

The Strategy

In the lead up to Fr. Ripperger’s talk in my parish, I asked if he could speak on this: “What does it look like if someone really wants to go all in – totally serious and committed – as a kind of “Navy Seal of Spiritual Warfare?” That’s when he offered the topic of “Different Levels of Spiritual Warfare” (See Fr. Ripperger’s talk below).

This is the approach we are taking. Depending upon your state in life, you will be able to choose which of these 5 levels of spiritual warfare (below) you are willing to accept. We want to be sure everyone is, at least, praying the Glorious Mysteries together at 3:00pm CST on October 10 (Level One).

Choose Your Level of Spiritual Warfare:

LEVEL ONE

Pray in a State of Grace (Go to Confession)
Believe God will answer our prayers
October 10: Pray Glorious Mysteries at 3:00pm CST (In a public group, if possible. See RosaryCoasttoCoast.com)
October 10: Act of Marian Consecration
October 1 – 31: Pray the Rosary Daily

LEVEL TWO

Pray in a State of Grace (Go to Confession)
Believe God will answer our prayers
October 10: Pray Glorious Mysteries at 3:00pm CST (In a public group, if possible. See RosaryCoasttoCoast.com)

We will add one more powerful novena to our arsenal, as the month of October concludes: Novena to St. Jude:

October 20-28: Novena to St. Jude

Say once a day for 9 days, especially beginning on 20 October and ending on 28 October. When the Novena is finished, you must publicly thank St. Jude for his prayers for you. This can be done by posting your “thank you” on social media.

To Saint Jude, Holy Saint Jude, Apostle and Martyr, great in virtue and rich in miracles, near kinsman of Jesus Christ, faithful intercessor of all who invoke thy special patronage in time of need. To thee I have recourse from the depths of my heart and humbly beg to whom God has given such great power to come to my assistance. Help me in my present and urgent petition, in return I promise to make thy name known and cause thee to be invoked. Saint Jude pray for us and all who invoke thy aid. Amen.

Recite an Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory Be (3 times). Keep your promise to St. Jude and make his name known.

I’M GOING IN!
