Reason we must pray for the Kingdom

 The promise in the Our Father for the coming of the Kingdom is a certainty.  Jesus had said that in the Creation he did everything with out anyone praying for or interceding to him for it, however this was not the case in the Redemption and in this last epoch of the Kingdom or Sanctification.  In the Redemption the Jewish people prayed for the coming Redeemer but it wasn't until Mary's acts done in the Divine Will where the greatest effect to move the hand of God came to pass which also secured the coming of the Kingdom as well.



The same happened in Redemption. Sin was flooding the earth; the very people called the people of God, was the smallest people, and if it seemed that it occupied itself with it, it was in a superficial way. In fact, they did not possess within themselves the life of that Redeemer whom they were asking for. It can be said that they occupied themselves just like, today, the Church, consecrated people and religious, occupy themselves by reciting the Our Father. But the fullness of the Life of my Will which they ask for in the Our Father is not in them, therefore their petition ends up in words, but not in facts. But when the Queen of Heaven came, who possessed the fullness of the Divine Life, everything She asked for for the good of the peoples moved God, conquered Him, made Him decide; and in spite of the evils which were present, the Eternal Word came upon earth by means of She who already possessed Him, as He formed the whole of Her life. With the fullness of this Divine Life, She was able to move God, and so came the good of Redemption. That which all others together were not able to obtain, She obtained – the Sovereign Queen, who had conquered, first within herself, Her Creator and the fullness of all the goods which She was asking for for others; and, being the conqueror, She had the virtue of being able to impetrate and give the good which She possessed.
Vol. 23, Nov. 27, 1927




          “Now, this Holy Virgin held her humanity, in which bound the whole human family, almost as members to the body; and we, for her love, watching in her the whole of mankind, as she was conceived we gave the first kiss of peace to all humanity and we constituted her heir of our divine heiress, despite some ungrateful one (that) might not want to receive her.
          “Now you see, therefore, how it is certain that the Kingdom of our Will must come upon the earth, now that one exists who inherited him, and having a creature (who) inherited him who belongs to the human race, all creatures acquired the right to be able to possess him.
          “This Celestial Sovereign (Lady), taken by love, formed a pledge of herself in our creative hands, in order to have that everyone might receive this Kingdom, and since this pledge possessed the life of my Will, it contained an infinite value, that for everyone she could pledge herself.  What (a) sweet and dear pledge was this holy creature in our hands!  She, by making her life, her acts flow in our Divine Volition, formed divine coins in order to be able to pay us for those that should inherit our Divine FiatThen my humanity came, united to the Eternal Word, that with my life, sufferings, and death I disbursed the sufficient price in order to repurchase this our Divine Will, and give him to creatures as (an) inheritance that belonged to them.
         “One act, one breath, one motion in my Will contains such value, that it can buy heaven and earth, and all that which one wants. Hence, let him alone be your life and your everything.”
Vol. 35, Oct. 25, 1927



So with all of the acts of  Jesus and Mary to secure the Kingdom for all mankind why do we need to pray for it to come?




The Divine Being is balanced. The gift of the Divine Fiat places everything in common. In giving, Justice wants to find the prop of the acts of creatures.
 
 
After doing my usual round in the Supreme Volition, I was praying to good Jesus in the name of His Creation and Redemption, in the name of all, from the first to the last man, in the name of the Sovereign Queen and of everything She did and suffered, that the Supreme Fiat may be known, so that Its Kingdom may be established with Its full triumph and dominion. But while doing this, I thought to myself: ‘If Jesus Himself wants and loves so much that His Kingdom be established in the midst of creatures, why does He want one to pray for It with such insistence? If He wants It, He can give It without so many continuous acts.’ And my sweet Jesus, moving in my interior, told me:
“My daughter, my Supreme Being possesses the perfect balance, and also in giving my graces and my gifts to creatures; much more so, then, for this Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat, which is the greatest gift, that I had already given at the beginning of Creation, and which man rejected with so much ingratitude. Does it seem trivial to you to place a Divine Will at his disposal, with all the goods It contains? And not for one hour, or one day, but for his whole life? The Creator placing His adorable Will in the creature to be able to put His likeness, His beauty, His infinite seas of riches, of joys, of endless happiness, in common? Only by possessing Our Will could the creature acquire the rights of communion, of likeness and of all the goods of his Creator. Without It there can be no communion with Us; and if he takes anything at all, it is just Our flowerings and the crumbs of Our endless goods.
“Now, with a gift so great, a happiness so immense, a right of divine likeness with the acquisition of the nobility of Our offspring which had been rejected, do you think it is something easy that the Divine Sovereignty, without being prayed, with no one giving a thought to receiving this Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat, would give It to creatures? It would be like repeating the story that took place in the terrestrial Eden, and maybe even worse. And besides, Our Justice would be justly opposed to this. Therefore, everything I have you do, the continuous rounds in the Supreme Volition, your incessant prayers for my Will to come to reign, your sacrificed life of so many years, knowing neither heaven nor earth, directed to the sole purpose of the coming of my Kingdom – are many props that I place before my Justice, that It may surrender Its rights, and balancing Itself with all Our attributes, It may find it just for the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat to be given back to the human generations. The same happened in Redemption; if Our Justice had not found the prayers, the sighs, the tears, the penances of the patriarchs, of the prophets and of all the good of the Old Testament, and then a Virgin Queen who possessed Our Will as whole, and who took everything to heart with so many insistent prayers, taking upon Herself the whole task of the satisfaction for all mankind, Our Justice would never have conceded the descent of the longed for Redeemer into the midst of creatures. It would have been inexorable and would have uttered a curt ‘no’ to my coming upon earth. And when it is about preserving the balance of Our Supreme Being, nothing can be done. 
“Now, who until now has ever prayed with interest, with insistence, laying down the sacrifice of his own life so that the Kingdom of the Supreme Fiat may come upon earth, and may triumph and dominate? No one. It is true that the Church has been reciting the ‘Our Father’ from the time I came upon earth, in which one asks, ‘Thy Kingdom come’, so that my Will be done on earth as It is in Heaven, but who thinks about the request they make? It can be said that the whole importance of such a request remained in my Will and that creatures recite it just to recite it, without understanding and without any interest in obtaining what they ask for. Therefore, my daughter, everything is hidden in secret while one lives on earth, and therefore everything seems a mystery; and if anything is known it is so limited, that man has always something to say about all that I operate in my works through the veils of creatures. They reach the point of saying: ‘And why have this good and these knowledges not been given before, while there have been so many great Saints?’ But in eternity there will be no secrets, I will reveal everything, and will show all things and my works with Justice, and how Justice could never have given, had there not been sufficient acts in the creature to be able to give what the Supreme Majesty wants to give. It is true that everything that the creature does is my grace, but my grace itself wants to find the prop of the dispositions and good will of the creature. Therefore, in order to restore the Kingdom of my Will upon earth it takes sufficient acts of the creature, so that my Kingdom may not remain in the air, but may descend, to be formed upon the very acts of the creature formed by her to obtain a good so great.
“This is why I push you so much to go around in all Our works – Creation and Redemption – so that you may place the share of your acts, your ‘I love You’,your adoration, your gratitude, your ‘thank You’ upon all Our works. Many times I have done this together with you; and then, as the fulfillment, after your round in Our Will comes your refrain, so pleasing to Us: ‘Supreme Majesty, your little daughter comes before You, on your paternal knees, to ask You for your Fiat, your Kingdom, that It be known by all. I ask You for the triumph of your Will, that It may dominate and reign over all. I am not the only one who asks this of You, but with me are your works and your very Will. Therefore, in the name of all, I ask – I plead for your Fiat.’ If you knew what a breach in Our Supreme Being is this refrain of yours! We feel We are being prayed by all Our works, beseeched by Our very Will; Heaven and earth pray on their knees to ask Us for the Kingdom of the Eternal Will. Therefore, if you want It, continue your acts, so that, by reaching the established number, you may obtain what you long for with so much insistence.”
Vol. 19, Sept. 13, 1926



God is balanced in all of his attributes and in mankind initially rejecting the Kingdom of the Divine Will there now must be a response from man in order to receive it again.  More so that God does not want to see a repeated fall as occurred in Eden.  Just as in the Redemption where the whole Jewish nation prayed for the coming Redeemer but without results until the Virgin, doing eternal acts in the Divine Will, came and completed the necessary corresponding acts on behalf of man to move God to act so it is now with this third epoch of Sanctification in the coming of the Kingdom.  There is a concrete number of acts required on behalf of mankind and because the Kingdom is to reign in each individual, each must be disposed to come to know and long for the Kingdom so that it might not be rejected again but treasured and safeguarded. 




Now, before my coming upon earth, even though my Divine Will was present in the midst of creatures with Its immensity, the relationships that existed between It and them, however, were as if It lived in a foreign land, and they received from afar the scarce communications, the brief news, which announced to them my coming upon earth. What sorrow, for It to be in their midst, while they do not recognize It, and they keep It so far away from their wills, as if It were in a foreign land. With my coming, since I possessed It as life and my Humanity recognized It, loved It and let It reign, through Me It drew closer to the creatures, and the relationships It had with them were as if It lived no longer in a foreign land, but in their own lands. But since they did not know It, nor did they give It dominion in order to let It reign, it cannot be said that my Divine Volition formed Its Kingdom. Therefore, my coming upon earth served to draw the two wills, human and Divine, closer to each other, and to place them in intimate relations, and to increase the news in order to make It known; so much so, that I taught the ‘Our Father’, making them say: ‘Your Kingdom come, your Will be done on earth as It is in Heaven.’ If my Will does not live on earth as It does in Heaven, it cannot be said that It has Its Kingdom in the midst of creatures. And therefore, in the time of Its Kingdom, It will be present not only in their midst, but inside each one of them as perennial Life; and in order to come to this, It must be recognized – how It is like head and primary life of each creature; and because this head is not recognized, Its Strength, Its Sanctity, Its Beauty, does not flow to the members, nor can It let Its noble and divine blood flow in their veins, and therefore the life of Heaven cannot be seen in creatures. So, this is why I love so much that my Divine Will be known – knowledge will make love arise; and feeling loved and longed for, It will feel drawn to come to reign in the midst of creatures.”
Vol. 26, July 24, 1929


 Acts done outside of the Divine Will can never move a God who being Divine is eternal. Eternal acts are required.   It is these knowledges that Jesus is giving to us in this our age that open the door to us to do these eternal acts which will call down the Kingdom both upon the earth and within the earth of our beings.
