Now more than ever it is crucial that you be “watchers of the dawn”, the lookouts who announce the light of dawn and the new springtime of the Gospel of which the buds can already be seen. —POPE JOHN PAUL II, 18th World Youth Day, April 13th, 2003; vatican.va A letter from a […]
WHEN churches began closing last winter, this apostolate virtually tripled in readership overnight. People were looking for answers as many sensed that “something” was wrong on a deep, existential level. They were, and are right. But something changed for me too. The interior “now word” that the Lord would give, perhaps a few times […]
THIS week, a deep, inexplicable sadness came over me, as it has in the past. But I know now what this is: it is a drop of sadness from the Heart of God—that man has rejected Him to the point of bringing humanity to this painful purification. It is the sadness that God was […]
The widespread reluctance on the part of many Catholic thinkers to enter into a profound examination of the apocalyptic elements of contemporary life is, I believe, part of the very problem which they seek to avoid. If apocalyptic thinking is left largely to those who have been subjectivized or who have fallen prey to […]
scientism | ˈsʌɪəntɪz(ə)m | noun: excessive belief in the power of scientific knowledge and techniques We must also face the fact that certain attitudes deriving from the mentality of “this present world” can penetrate our lives if we are not vigilant. For example, some would have it that only that is true which can be […]
LONG time readers know that I have been compelled in recent months to address issues related to science in the context of this pandemic. These subjects, on face value, may seem to fall outside the parameters of an evangelist (though I’m a news reporter by trade).
“WHAT’S the use? Why bother planning anything? Why start any projects or invest in the future if everything is going to collapse anyway?” These are the questions some of you are asking as you begin to grasp the seriousness of the hour; as you see the fulfillment of prophetic words unfolding and examine the […]
Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640) First published April 19th, 2007. WHILE praying before the Blessed Sacrament, I had the impression of an angel in the mid-heavens hovering above the world and shouting, “Control! Control!” As man tries more and more to banish Christ’s presence from the world, wherever they succeed, chaos takes His place. […]
He Will Reign, by Tianna (Mallett) Williams It is clear that there is a battle raging for the soul of America. Two visions. Two futures. Two powers. Is it already written in the Scriptures? Few Americans may realize that the battle for their country’s heart began centuries ago and the revolution underway there is […]
…without the guidance of charity in truth, this global force could cause unprecedented damage and create new divisions within the human family… humanity runs new risks of enslavement and manipulation.. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Caritas in Veritate, n.33, 26 WHEN I was a child, the Lord was already preparing me for this worldwide ministry. […]
SINCE the gradual re-opening in many regions of Masses this week, several readers have asked me to comment on the restriction several bishops are putting into place that Holy Communion must be received “in the hand.” One man said that he and his wife have received Communion “on the tongue” for fifty years, and […]
On the memorial of Saint Charles Lwanga and Companions, Martyred by fellow Africans Teacher, we know that you are a truthful man and that you are not concerned with anyone’s opinion. You do not regard a person’s status but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. (Yesterday’s Gospel) GROWING up on […]
Our Lady of Sorrows, painting by Tianna (Mallett) Williams The past three days, the winds here have been unceasing and strong. All day yesterday, we were under a “Wind Warning.” When I started to reread this post just now, I knew I had to republish it. The warning herein is crucial and must be […]
And so I solemnly declare to you this day that I am not responsible for the blood of any of you, for I did not shrink from proclaiming to you the entire plan of God… So be vigilant and remember that for three years, night and day, I unceasingly admonished each of you with […]
I HAVE received numerous letters over the years from people saying, “My grandmother talked about these times decades ago.” But many of those grandmothers have long since passed on. And then there was the explosion of the prophetic in the 1990’s with the messages of Fr. Stefano Gobbi, Medjugorje, and other prominent seers. But […]
Mark Mallett is a former television reporter with CTV Edmonton and award-winning documentarian and author of The Final Confrontation and The Now Word. WHEN I was a television reporter in the late 1990’s, I broke one of the biggest stories that year—or at least, I thought it would be. Dr. Stephen Genuis had […]
WE are being faced as a society with a serious question: either we are going to spend the rest of our lives hiding from pandemics, living in fear, isolation and without freedom… or we can do our best to build our immunities, quarantine the sick, and get on with living. Somehow, over the past […]
‘Civilizations collapse slowly, just slowly enough so you think it might not really happen. And just fast enough so that there’s little time to maneuver.’ —The Plague Journal, p. 160, a novel by Michael D. O’Brien WHO doesn’t love science? The discoveries of our universe, whether the intricacies of DNA or the passing of […]
“SHOULD we stockpile food? Will God lead us to a refuge? What should we do?” These are some of the questions people are asking right now. It’s really important, then, that Our Lady’s Little Rabble understand the answers…
IT bears repeating: The Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. (2 Corinthians 3:17) In other words, where the Lord is not, there is the spirit of control.
THE Great Storm like a hurricane that has spread across all of humanity will not cease until it has accomplished its end: the purification of the world. As such, just as in the times of Noah, God is providing an ark for His people to safeguard them and preserve a “remnant.” With love and […]
I SAID that I would write next on how to confidently enter the Ark of Refuge. But this cannot be addressed properly without our feet and hearts firmly rooted in reality. And frankly, many aren’t…
Star of the Sea by Tianna (Mallett) Williams Our Lady’s love and protection over the Barque of Peter, the faithful Church I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now. (John 16:12) THE following is the third and last part of what can be summarized in the word “Prepare” that […]
The Sheep have been scattered… I’m in Chicago and the day all the churches closed down, before the announcement, I woke up at 4 am from a dream with Mother Mary. She said to me, “All of the churches will close today. It has begun.” —from a reader OFTEN a pregnant woman will […]
Resurrection of Lazarus, fresco from San Giorgio church, Milan, Italy PRIESTS are the bridge over which the Church will pass to the Triumph of Our Lady. But that does not mean the laity’s role is insignificant in the times ahead—especially after the Warning.
OKAY, I’m just going to say it. You have no idea how hard it is to write all there is to say in such a little space! I’m trying my best not to overwhelm you while at the same time trying to be faithful to the words burning on my heart. For the majority, […]
THIS afternoon, I ventured out for the first time after a two week quarantine to go to confession. I entered the church following behind the young priest, a faithful, dedicated servant. Unable to enter the confessional, I knelt at a make-shift podium, set at the “social-distancing” requirement. Father and I looked at each with […]
THE winds of a hurricane can destroy—but they can also strip and cleanse. Even now, we see how the Father is using the first significant gusts of this Great Storm to purify, cleanse, and prepare the Bride of Christ for His coming to dwell and reign within her in an all new manner. As […]
JUST as one will be blinded by flying debris if he tries to stare into the furious winds of a hurricane, so too, one can be blinded by all the evil, fear and terror unfolding hour by hour right now. This is what Satan wants—to drag the world into despair and doubt, into panic […]
St. Joseph, by Tianna (Mallett) Williams The hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each one to his home, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone because the Father is with me. I have said this to you, so that in me you may have […]
LIKE a thief in the night, the world as we know it has changed in the blink of an eye. It will never be the same again, for what is unfolding now are the hard labour pains before the birth—what St. Pius X called a “restoration of all things in Christ.”[1]cf. The Popes and the […]
Masses are being canceled throughout the world… (Photo by Sergio Ibannez) IT is with mixed horror and grief, sadness and disbelief that many of us read of the cessation of Catholic Masses around the world. One man said he is no longer permitted to bring Communion to those in nursing homes. Another diocese is […]
Many Catholic churches around the world are empty, and the faithful temporarily barred from the Sacraments I have told you this so that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you. (John 16:4) AFTER landing safely in Canada from Trinidad, I received a text from American seer, Jennifer, whose messages […]
St. Peter’s Square is closed, (Photo: Guglielmo Mangiapane, Reuters) MARK returns with his first webcast in seven years to address the fear and panic rising in the world, providing a simple diagnosis and antidote.
THERE are many young people who read The Now Word as well as families who’ve told me that they share these writings around the table. One mother wrote:
This writing from nine years ago came to mind a couple of days ago. I wasn’t going to republish it until I received a wild confirmation this morning (read to the end!) The following was first published on January 11th, 2011 at 13:33… FOR some time now, I have spoken with the occasional […]
If the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, so that the people are not warned, and the sword comes, and takes any one of them; that man is taken away in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at the watchman’s hand. (Ezekiel 33:6) AT a conference […]
ALMOST six years ago, I wrote about a spirit of fear that would begin to assail the world; a fear that would begin to grip nations, families, and marriages, children and adults alike. One of my readers, a very smart and devout woman, has a daughter who for many years has been given a window […]
THE world is in a period of great transition: the end of this present era and beginning of the next. This is no mere turning of the calendar. It is an epochal change of biblical proportions. Nearly everyone can sense it to one degree or another. The world is disturbed. The planet is groaning. Divisions are […]
ON the verge of a global pandemic? A massive locust plague and food crisis in the Horn of Africa and Pakistan? A global economy on the precipice of collapse? Plummeting insect numbers threatening the ‘collapse of nature’? Nations on the verge of another terrible war? Socialist parties rising in once democratic countries? Totalitarian laws continuing […]
When the freedom to be creative becomes the freedom to create oneself, then necessarily the Maker himself is denied and ultimately man too is stripped of his dignity as a creature of God, as the image of God at the core of his being. …when God is denied, human dignity also disappears. —POPE BENEDICT […]
Communism, then, is coming back again on the Western world, because something died in the Western world—namely, the strong faith of men in the God that made them. —Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen, “Communism in America”, cf. youtube.com WHEN Our Lady allegedly spoke with the seers in Garabandal, Spain in the 1960’s, she left […]
WHAT does it mean that Jesus desires to restore to mankind the “Gift of Living in the Divine Will”? Among other things, it is the restoration of true sonship. Let me explain…
WHY does the world remain in pain? Because it is the human, not Divine Will, that continues to govern mankind’s affairs. On a personal level, when we assert our human will over the Divine, the heart loses its equilibrium and plunges into disorder and unrest—even in the smallest assertion over God’s will (for just […]
…BECAUSE we have not listened. We have not heeded a consistent warning from Heaven that the world is creating a future without God. To my surprise, I sensed the Lord ask me to set aside writing on the Divine Will this morning because it is necessary to rebuke the cynicism, hard-heartedness and unwarranted skepticism […]
