Station VII

LORD JESUS FALLS FOR THE SECOND TIME

Way of the Cross - Station 7

We adore You, O Christ and we bless You, because by Your holy cross You have redeemed the world.

 

Lord Jesus:  The subsequent fall. You will meet Satan on your path. He will look you in the face more than once. You will not recognize him right away. He will take on a pleasant appearance in order to deceive you, but when you allow him to come closer, he will bring you down. This is your first enemy. He will lie in wait for you to sense your moments of weakness. Then he will push you and you will fall. If you allow him to come close to you, you will always fall. He exceeds you in strength, cunning and knowledge a thousand times, just as an adult exceeds a child. If you take anything from him, he will destroy you. You are helpless and naïve toward his snares. You do not see how he deceives you, just as Eve, who was fooled. The only way of defense is an absolute obedience toward My words, My commandments, My Will. 

My will, expressed to you through My commandments and My Word, is a defense for you, which no evil sprit is able to overcome and vanquish, including Satan himself. Keep My Commandments and My Word as if it were a matter of life and death. Let My Commandments be food for you, which you eat with delight every day. I have given you the strength to defeat the entire Hell, but never leave without this armament, because you will perish right away. Do not delude yourself with your own strength. It is not with man that you fight, but with demons, which only I can oppose. None of the inhabitants of the Earth can beat them. They will always lose.

Our Father …
Hail Mary …
Glory be …
Have mercy on us, O Lord.
Have mercy on us.
