And then the angel, the Virgin Mary and Sister Agnes prayed together like this,

“Sacred Heart of Jesus, truly present in the Holy Eucharist, I consecrate my body and my soul to be completely one with Your Heart, sacrificed at every moment on all the altars of the world and giving praise to the Father, praying for the coming of His Kingdom.”

The Monastery of the Servants of the Holy Eucharist in Akita , Japan, became the site of numerous supernatural events from 1973 to 1985.

There were recorded visions of a bright light coming out of the sanctuary, along with some kind of smoke in the sanctuary, and even a multitude of angel-like beings surrounding the altar in worship, which even the local bishop noticed. And later, hundreds of people witnessed the statue of the Blessed Virgin crying 101 times.

During this period, the deaf nun Agnes Sasagawa received visions and messages from her guardian angel and the Blessed Virgin , some of which contained dire warnings and calls to prayer and penance.

Many people torment the Lord

On August 3, 1973, the Blessed Virgin Mary said to her while she was praying in the monastery chapel:

“Many people in this world are tormenting the Lord… Heavenly Father will impose a great punishment on all mankind.”

And she added: “I prevented the arrival of troubles by offering him the sufferings of the Son on the cross, His Precious Blood and beloved souls who comfort him by forming a cohort of victim souls. Prayer, penance, and courageous sacrifices can appease the Father’s wrath.”

And in her last message, on October 13, 1973, on the anniversary of the miracle of the Sun in Fatima, Our Lady gave her a very strong message about the Church, she said:

“The work of the devil will creep into the Church, in such a way that you will see cardinals against cardinals, bishops against other bishops… The Church will be full of those who agree to compromises.”

On April 22, 1984, Bishop John Shojiro Ito declared the events in Akita supernatural, including the miracle of the permanent restoration of Sister Agnes’s hearing, as promised to her by the Blessed Virgin Mary in 1982.

And Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, the future Pope Benedict XVI, declared in 1988 that the apparitions in Akita were a continuation of the apparitions in Fatima from 1917.

In these apparitions, there was a call for reparations, which is little known and which is related to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

A prayer for the end times

On July 5, 1973, an angel woke up Sister Agnes around three in the morning and said to her:

“Today’s world hurts the Sacred Heart of our Lord with its ingratitude and insults. Maria’s wounds are much deeper and more painful than yours. Let’s go pray together in the chapel.

And then the angel, the Virgin Mary and Sister Agnes prayed together like this,

“Sacred Heart of Jesus, truly present in the Holy Eucharist, I consecrate my body and my soul to be completely one with Your Heart, sacrificed at every moment on all the altars of the world and giving praise to the Father, praying for the coming of His Kingdom.”

In this prayer, we see that devotion to the Sacred Heart is the door to appease God’s wrath and avoid punishment for the sins of humanity.

This was confirmed in the last apparition, because Our Lady told Sister Agnes: “People must repent and improve.” The only weapon that will remain for you will be the rosary and the sign left by My Son”.

Mercy and justice

And what sign did Jesus leave? Devotion to His Sacred Heart.

This prayer to the Sacred Heart is associated with Saint Mary Margarita de Alacoque, to whom the Heart of Jesus was shown as on a throne, with merciful rays emanating everywhere, on July 2, 1674.

The heart wound he received on the cross was clearly visible, surrounded by a crown of thorns topped with a cross.

And he said he wanted that display to be publicly exhibited to touch the insensitive hearts of the people.

Centuries later, on February 22, 1931, Jesus appeared to St. Faustina Kowalska, with his right hand as a sign of blessing, and with his left hand showing his Heart, from which two rays emanated.

And he said to her: “My heart is mercy, from this sea of ​​mercy graces flow throughout the world.”

But, he added, “he who refuses to pass through the door of my mercy must pass through the door of my justice.”

Therefore, the Heart of Jesus is merciful, longs for people’s love, expects people to repent of their sins and heal the wounds in His heart.

And if they do not, the merciful heart will apply its justice, as it warned in Akita.
