Grace and peace, Saints.
At the dedication of the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception on November 20, 1959, a prayer was read dedicating the United States to the Virgin Mary. Â One may not believe this to have had any special significance, and, if what happened in the U.S. was anything like what happened in Australia, according to Monica Farrell in Ravening Wolves, with the exception of a few God-fearing Protestants, the majority of America’s citizens probably took the whole thing as a joke. Â
But it was no joke, as the following stanzas from the prayer demonstrates:
“Most Holy Trinity: Our Father in Heaven, who chose Mary as the fairest or your daughters; Holy Spirit, who chose Mary as your spouse; God the Son, who chose Mary as your Mother; in union with Mary, we adore your majesty and acknowledge your supreme, eternal dominion and authority.
“Have mercy on our President and on all the officers of our government.  Grant us a fruitful economy born of justice and charity.  Have mercy on capital and industry and labor.  Protect the family life of the nation. Guard the innocence of our children. Â
“Grant the precious gift of many religious vocations. Through the intercession of our Mother, have mercy on the sick, the poor, the tempted, sinners–on all who are in need.”
As you can see, America’s economy, MONEY, industry, labor (READ jobs), family life, and the innocence of the nation’s children were dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Â In short, the entire well-being of the United States, including our prosperity, were placed in the hands of an idol. Â Can it be merely a coincidence that all of the above have been virtually destroyed? Â
The dedication of the United States of America to the Virgin Mary has also had a devastating effect on the weather:
“U.S. Drought Grows To Cover Widest Area Since 1956”
“The drought gripping the United States is the widest since 1956, according to new data released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Â
“Fifty-five percent of the continental U.S. was in a moderate to extreme drought by the end of June (1956). This summer, eighty percent of the U.S. is abnormally dry.” Â –CBS News, July 16, 2012. Â [Boldface mine, parenthesis mine.]
God hates idolatry. Â And the United States has given itself over to idolatry. Â Did you know that drought is a penalty for idolatry? Â Well, it is:
“A drought is upon [Babylon’s] waters; and they shall be dried up: for it is the land of graven images, and they are mad upon their idols” (Jeremiah 50:38).
This has global implications also.  The Roman Catholic church has designs on the whole world, evidenced by the name “catholic,†which means universal. There have, in fact, been prayers dedicating the entire world to the Virgin Mary. Below is an excerpt of one such prayer:
“Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, Refuge of the Human Race, Victress in all God’s battles, / we humbly prostrate ourselves before Thy Throne…
“To thee, to thy Immaculate Heart in this, humanity’s tragic hour, we consign and consecrate ourselves…
“Give peace to the people separated by error or schism, and especially to those who profess such singular devotion to thee and in whose homes an honoured place was ever accorded thy venerated Icon (today perhaps often kept hidden to await better days): bring them back to the One Fold of Christ under the One True Shepherd.
“Lastly, as the Church and the entire human race were Consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, so that reposing all hope in Him, He might become for them the sign and pledge of victory and salvation;
“[S]o We, in like manner, Consecrate Ourselves, the United States of America, the Vatican, and Russia, forever, to thee and to thy Immaculate Heart…â€
If this prayer is genuine, both the United States and Russia, as well as the world, have been consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  This is proof that no matter what a country’s political leanings, as far as the Roman Catholic church is concerned, there are no differences. It is merely business as usual. This is also further proof that the so-called Cold War was a farce. The United States and Russia, supposedly bitter enemies for decades, have always been united in the Roman Catholic faith. As far as the Vatican is concerned they always have and always will be united.
Proof of this is the fact that the double-headed eagle was adopted on November 30, 1993 as the coat of arms of the Russian Federation.
The double-headed eagle is also a symbol of the Roman Catholic church. So that you can see how deep the rabbit whole goes, consider that the double-headed eagle is also a symbol of the 33rd degree of Freemasonry.
The Bible tells us that the Roman Catholic church will succeed in its designs to rule the world. But it is the Lord Jesus Christ that is allowing this to happen. He is bringing it all about. The Bible says that Mystery Babylon has been “a golden cup in the Lord’s handâ€Â (Jeremiah 51:7). God is using the Roman Catholic church as part of the strong delusion to deceive those who “had pleasure in unrighteousness.† God will destroy the Roman Catholic church:
“How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
“Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God which judgeth her” (Revelation 18:7-8).
That is why He is calling His people out of that idolatrous system, before it is too late.
