The Chosen Servant
A reading from the Gospel of Saint Matthew 12, 15 – 21:
When Jesus realized this, he withdrew from that place. Many people followed him, and he cured them all, but he warned them not to make him known. This was to fulfill what had been spoken through Isaiah the prophet:
“Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom I delight;
I shall place my spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.
He will not contend or cry out, nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
A bruised reed he will not break, a smoldering wick he will not quench,
until he brings justice to victory. And in his name the Gentiles will hope.”
I receive many phone calls every day from all over the world. People phone me from Africa, from Europe, from South America and from North America. Most phone me for prayers. They are sick and they ask for prayers for healing. I pray on every person who asks me to pray for them. A good number of them are healed. The Lord is good and He loves them all.
Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words, “You know My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters that I love every person. When someone comes to Me to ask for a healing or to chase evil spirits from him or her, I never refuse provided they believe in Me.
Most of My own people, the Jews of Israel, did not believe in Me. They could not accept that I was their Savior announced by the prophets and so they rejected Me as false. Although as you know I am indeed the Savior of the world, the Son of God. With all the miracles I accomplished before so many people, still they would not believe in Me. The Apostles, however, believed in Me and followed Me except of course Judas Iscariot, the one who betrayed Me.
When I went to Gentile areas, there I was accepted by many people and they would come to ask Me to go to their homes to heal the sick members of their families. I was even asked to bring back to life a young girl who had died. I did go to the house and there I brought back to life the girl who was lying in bed dead.
I was accepted by more and with greater faith about the Gentiles than among the Jews. So that is why the Apostles were sent among the Gentiles to start My Church. They succeeded very well in many places although all of them except Saint John were martyred. The Apostles were the ones who laid the foundation for My Church in many countries and My Church exists in those place even today. I had selected Saint Peter to be the head of My Church and at the end he was the Bishop in charge of My Church in Rome and all his successors have been the Bishop of Rome. Today the Bishop of Rome is Pope Francis selected through the power of the Holy Spirit. Accept him and you will be in agreement with Me. He is your leader and he speaks in My name. I bless you all.”
