Messages From The Queen of Heaven

Our Lady's Words

Fasting stops wars.
Fasting can suspend the laws of nature.
Fasting, to be powerful, must be done with the heart.

By giving our fasting to Our Lady, it “forces” satan not to be able to seduce us to evil and drive him away.

Fasting purifies our hearts from the sins of our past. (Through confession, sins of the past are forgiven but healing from life-long vice or memories which satan uses against us to lead us back into sin, requires purification).
