When you Adore GOD First, then love others next (by Veneration, etc.), Holily then you will realize our generation MUST really appreciate GOD to the highest/superlative degree we can: Liturgically and Personally as Children and Child of ABBA (Eternal Holy NAME Addressed by Mighty God HIM Sake) Being Eternal LIGHT
They say when there is a storm, light a blessed candle for protection from the storm or any other calamity. Lighting a Blessed candle is not the only thing that we do, we also go down on our knees and start praying.
Every year, I used to buy candles in bulk, at least 100 pcs because I pray the rosary every day and I want candles blessed before using them. Then I also give blessed candles to my chosen friends those I know don't have time to show to church during these special events like candelaria to bring the candles to be blessed.
Bless you -this podcast showed up on my tablet on the Feast of the Presentation/ Purification. Our priest did bless candles this morning. But you have given me a deeper understanding. Thank you.❤🙏🙏
How truly very edifying, encouraging, invigorating! How joyful and and holy, to hear you talk about these things! Thank you each for a beautifully spiritual conversation obviously guided by the Holy Spirit! Thank you! It was truly delightful and it was a privilege to be able to listen in. Salve Maria!
This podcast is profound and very enriching to my faith as a Catholic. I am glad I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to join in and listen. Thank you, Rev Fathers, for the teachings 🙏
Oh Br thanku so much for explaining the significance of the Blessed Candle n Reverence for our Blessed mother. Yes I have shared the video on our prayer group to others. So beautifully you put forth to Jesus thru Mary. Amen🙏 !
I had 12 candles 🕯️ Blessed of February 2, 2024, The Feast of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple, Jesus our Savior Light of the World 🌍 La Candelaria Day. 🕯️📖🕯️
ST. POPE JOHN PAUL II: “There is and there has to be a place for forms of piety so that the Church’s life of prayer is not reduced to liturgical worship alone. Popular devotions, however, must not interfere with the liturgical life of the Church and are less important than the Mass. The best remedy against ever possible deviations is to permeate these manifestations of popular piety with the word of the Gospel. Devotions to the saints, expressed in feast days, images, processions and so many other forms of piety, should not be reduced to merely seeking protection of material goods or bodily health. The saints must first of all be presented to the faithful as models of how to live and as imitators of Christ. Pastors must ensure that the practices do not degenerate into false piety, superstition or magic.”
Hi i am catholic and i have never came across the idea of our lady was present at the last supper of our lord. Can you please explain it to me because it's in the bibel and i can't find any other catholic writing over the internet.
Hello. Indeed, the Bible is silent on this point, but that doesn't mean that Mary or the other Holy Women were not present at the Last Supper. In fact, the Paschal Lamb was always eaten by the family (Exod. 12:3-4) and others were invited only when the members of the family were insufficient in number. So, there is no reason to suppose that Our Lady was not present. On the contrary, the idea that She who is the "Woman of the Eucharist" as Pope John Paul II used to say, She who is the Mother of the Word Incarnate and who carried Him in Her womb before we received Him, was not present at the moment of the institution of the Eucharist is an idea that is quite difficult to believe. In fact, God loves Mary more than the whole Church, and it was primarily for Her that Christ instituted the Eucharist. She is also the model for those who receive Communion, because Her Son must also have given Her Communion. Hope that helps! Please pray for us.
Hello Debra. Of course we pray to Jesus. And...Mary was no mere human. God chose her, sent an Archangel, the Angel Gabriel, from Heaven to inform her that the Holy Spirit would overshadow her and that she would conceive of the Only Begotten Son of God, Our Lord Jesus Christ. Imagine her perfection, her holiness, her faith, her purity. In the Angelic Salutation we read: "Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amongst women". If an Angel can say these words to the mother of Our Lord, why would we not say them also? Do not be afraid to honour the mother of Jesus, Our Lord!
“Never be afraid of loving the Blessed Virgin too much,” St. Maximilian Kolbe said. “You can NEVER love her more than JESUS (Himself!) did.” ....JESUS did not spurn The Virgins Womb - in a sense, JESUS was The First to honor Mary🙏🌹🌟
We learn so much how much our faith is a treasure ! Beautiful teaching on candles , Our Lady how wonderful! God bless and protect the Heralds of the Gospel!

When you feel tempted say “Behind me Satan” then say “Most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ, save us and the whole world” repeatedly until you feel God’s comfort.
The picture of Mother Mary on the wall, well I have the same one in my house which belonged to my grandfather and is more than 125 years old. I wonder what the elaborate robes and heart that Mother Mary is wearing in the picture signifies. ❤ from Mumbai.
I am a catholic and a member of Legion of Mary and I do believe in candle.. my experienced is the candle once formed into a Blessed Mary holding baby Jesus while I was praying , for me it simply shows that the Blessed Mary is always watching me. “TO JESUS THROUGH MARY “ wish I could share the picture in the comment…
New Subscriber here.. Our Catholic faith is so so Beautiful.. super.. We have our Mother Mama Mary who always there for us praying to his Son.. Jesus Christ.We have also Saints.. A lot of Catholic left because what they know is not the truly Church.. Catholic church is the true Church that Jesus Christ Founded 2000 yrs ago.
Although Mary never suffered separation from God because of sin, she still suffered and can relate to the pain we experience because she suffered when Jesus was lost until she and Joseph found Jesus in the temple. ❤️❤️❤️
It is so nice to know where the usage of holy came from. Thank you Father for this holy Knowlage. I burn bless candle day and night this confirms me that l am doing the right thing 🙏🙏🙏🙏🕊️🔥❤️✝️💐🥀

I wish someone would explain the timeline between the Nativity, the circumcision (which must have happened in Bethlehem when Our Lord was 8 days old) Epiphany, the slaughter of Innocents and the Flight into Egypt and Candlemas and the Purification of Mary + Presentations of Jesus in the Temple. I never understand how they managed to walk all the way to Jerusalem this long after the Nativity, if they left for Egypt after Jesus' birth. Some rosary meditation books even say that the circumcision happened at the Presentation, which can't be right? Could you please outline this for us, Heralds?I wish someone would explain the timeline between the Nativity, the circumcision (which must have happened in Bethlehem when Our Lord was 8 days old) Epiphany, the slaughter of Innocents and the Flight into Egypt and Candlemas and the Purification of Mary + Presentations of Jesus in the Temple.

This broadcast is very beautiful, especially The analogy on Candle and the Virgin Mary as vessel of God. I am also thankful to our young Deacons and Priests. So thankful that we have them as assurance that our Catholic Faith will continue into the future.
Private revelation tells us that Jesus was at least 18 months old when the Magi arrived. Their relatives namely St Zacharias and St Elizabeth wanted to aid them and asked them to remain in David's City as Jesus was the Messiah. They didn't want to as everything was prepared in Nazareth for Jesus, but as Zacharias was a Priest of God, they obeyed. The Bible tells us He (and Mary & Joseph) was in a HOUSE when they arrived. Also Herod killed the children between 18 months and 2 years old. Not newborns. God provided at the right time for the Magi were the catalysts of the slaughter, unintentionally so of course. Their provisions were what St Joseph and Our Lady used in Egypt. Also Bethlehem was closer to Egypt than Nazareth so shortened the journey. Have a read of City of God by Mary of Agreda, and Bl Katherine Emmerich. Might be there.
You gentlemen are simply inspiring! Speaking so much love that she invokes is amazing!… thank you so much for this instructive post. Always in my prayers brothers ❤🌎
Hello Yvonne. The candles are not required to be of beeswax, but it is often noted that beeswax is very pure and of high quality, and therefore preferred by many.
Hello. The lighting of candles is a very old practice. And, along with Scripture, we have the marvelous additions of Tradition and the Teaching of the Church. God bless you!
I usually lighted a blessed candles everytime I pray , most especially saying my Holy Rosary daily. And some special. occasions,, 19:30 such as birthdays, anniversaries, and house blessings, 20:09 . Thank you very much. Mother Mary, please pray for us.
I once had a vision/dream where an angel told me not to light candles for the dead,they will not rest.This was a time tt I was mourning for my mother.I have had other messages as well but I dare not share,cos I dnt want to be called crazy
Eternal rest grant unto them O LORD and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. (Approved prayer. Remember test spirits even in dreams via Church tchg. Up to God whether a soul rests and a candle a sign of the light of Christ.) Condolences.
I grew up with the lighting of candles on Mondays for the souls of the deceased. It was called acender velas pras almas. My father never missed a Monday mass, and the lighting of candles to the souls of the deceased. My church has an area where we light candle offerings to the deceased.
When you have such a dream/vision, say blessed be Jesus and if the angel repeats it, the angel is of light. If there is no repetition of Blessed be Jesus, it is a demon in your dreams. This is from exorcist Fr. Ripperger.
Thanks for explaination on sacrementals and description of candle,blessing of candles on the presentation of Jesus in the temple. Inspiring insights to understand symbols and spiritual life. Body and soul for Greater Glory of God. Candle represents body(wax) sou(lwig) and flame(divinity) of Jesus Christ. Virtues are important .
Thank you for explaining about lighting blessed candles. I lit a candle yesterday to honor Our Lady of Guadalupe. I was hoping that this was the right thing to do. I am grateful for this explanation that gives depth and clarity and knowledge of our faith. Thank you all. Joan in Utah. Please pray for the Mormons.
My brother has Doen Syndrome, he sometimes get manic in the evenings, if I burn a blessed candle he calms down immediatly.
I am glad the Catholic Church is explaining these traditions now. We have been ignorant for many years, sadly!
from Our LORD Almighty FATHER:ABBA
Jesus Christ Our Lord is "Light from LIGHT"
When you Adore GOD First, then love others next (by Veneration, etc.), Holily then you will realize our generation MUST really appreciate GOD to the highest/superlative degree we can: Liturgically and Personally as Children and Child of ABBA (Eternal Holy NAME Addressed by Mighty God HIM Sake) Being Eternal LIGHT
(All/Us) : Never be ignoring("never be ignorant") ... Yet let Us be everlastingly Brilliant Mindful as GOD DeSIRES.
They say when there is a storm, light a blessed candle for protection from the storm or any other calamity. Lighting a Blessed candle is not the only thing that we do, we also go down on our knees and start praying.

I love to do my prayers with a candle. Salve Maria.
Mama Mary please intercede for my community we are in the hands of the evil one
The perpetual light burning perpetually in the Tabernacle symbolizes the Light of Christ burning perpetually in the Tabernacles of our souls.
Mama Mary love you so much! Thank you for all you do for us. God Bless us all. Amen
Our Lady is The Flame of Love. Oh Blessed Lady, spread the effect of Grace of Your Flame of Love over all humanity.

Great talk but when ye all talk together I can't understand any of the stories yer trying to tell. Please one at a time thanks Veronica
Hello, Veronica. Thank you for the suggestion, we will try to slow down!
ST. POPE JOHN PAUL II: “There is and there has to be a place for forms of piety so that the Church’s life of prayer is not reduced to liturgical worship alone. Popular devotions, however, must not interfere with the liturgical life of the Church and are less important than the Mass.

The saints must first of all be presented to the faithful as models of how to live and as imitators of Christ. Pastors must ensure that the practices do not degenerate into false piety, superstition or magic.”
We need blessed heart focused on sacrifice of Jesus Christ and dedicated to His Word. Candles, roses, rosaries, does not matter..God bless

I asked local priest to bless my beeswax candle, he ignored me.
Perhaps you can ask another priest to bless your candle?
@@HeraldsoftheGospel_official Thank you for your reply but no I think not. They aren’t the shepherds they once were.
I learned so much thank you! But I do ask you, Fathers, to let go of your sponsor‘armchair yoga’. Yoga is a pagan prayer ritual
I think the ads come up from TH-cam itself and cannot be controlled by the Heralds unfortunately.
Brothers I just finished my renewal of consecration to Jesus Through Virgin Mary by St Louis de Montfort.
Super & congrats , i finished first 5 saturdays Yesterday & today i am day 14 of 33 days to the consecration to our Lady🙏❤️🔥🌹

Didn’t Our Lady of Lourdes ask Bernadette to have candles 🕯️ burning around her image???
I read from the Book of Leviticus about the lamps to be used in the Tabernacle. If we refer to Leviticus 27:20-21. This lamp must burn perpetually.
