The Healing of a Boy with a Demon
Dear Friends,
When they came to the crowd a man approached, knelt down before him, and said, “Lord, have pity on my son, for he is a lunatic and suffers severely; often he falls into fire, and often into water. I brought him to your disciples, but they could not cure him.” Jesus said in reply, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long will I be with you? How long will I endure you? Bring him here to me.” Jesus rebuked him and the demon came out of him, and from that hour the boy was cured. Then the disciples approached Jesus in private and said, “Why could we not drive it out?” He said to them, “Because of your little faith. Amen, I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” (Passage from the Gospel of St. Matthew 17:14-21)
We have a nice sunny day today but it is not hot. All of July, the temperature here in Prince Edward Island has remained in the 20s Celsius. The people are able to work without discomfort. I expect it will get warmer in August.
I hope you have checked the new website at www.ourladyofpei.com, which a great friend of mine who lives near New York City set up for me. I wish to thank him for doing this. I am sure you will enjoy it.
Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,
“I bless you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters scattered all over the world. You have all been tempted by the evil one but if you remain attached to Me Satan will not be able to cause you to sin. Many today are possessed by the devil because they have been involved in the occult such as New Age and Wicca. The evil one has taken control of them and now they are slaves of Satan. Even the youth can be taken by the devil and I had to chase the evil one from a boy one day. Once the devil was chased away, then the boy became normal. This shows that even young people can be possessed. You, My brother Melvin, chased an evil spirit from a boy on the Island some time ago after his father came and begged you to help his son. After you prayed he was completely liberated and never had any more trouble. This boy was possessed because he was watching some sort of occult on television.
If anyone is possessed, he or she needs to go and see a priest who will pray with that person and he or she will be freed. It is dangerous for lay people to pray for such people who are possessed. It could happen that the evil one will enter the person who is praying and he or she will be in an awful state. The priest has been given the power by Me to do this. You have to tell the person who is freed to follow Me every day and to pray regularly otherwise seven worst spirits will possess that person and the last stage will be worst than the first. If you remain with Me, there is no way that you can be possessed by evil spirits. Remain then in close union with Me. I love you all.”
Father Melvin
P.S. It is written in this message, “ It is dangerous for lay people to pray for such people who are possessed.” In fact what is meant is that they should not place their hands on those people to attempt to drive away the evil spirits. Only priests should lay hands on those people.
