MATERIALISM (See also WORLDLINESS)

Your hearts are turned towards earthly things, and they preoccupy you. Turn your hearts towards prayer, and seek that the Holy Spirit be poured out on you. (05/09/1985)

You are absorbed with material things, but in material things you lose everything that God wishes to give you. (04/17/1986)

You get lost easily in material and human things and forget that God is your greatest friend. Therefore, my dear little children, draw near to God so that he may protect you and guard you from every evil. (02/25/1992)

Little children, do not seek comfort in material things. Rather, seek God. (09/25/1993)

In this time, due to the spirit of consumerism, when one forgets what it means to love and to cherish true values, I invite you again, little children, to put God first in your life. Do not let Satan attract you through material things but, little children, decide for God who is freedom and love. (03/25/1996)

I invite you to reflect on your future. You are creating a new world without God but only with your own strength. That is why you are dissatisfied and without joy in the heart. This time is my time, and therefore, little children, I invite you again to pray. When you find union with God you will feel hunger for the word of God, and your heart, little children, will overflow with joy. (01/25/1997)

Be real with yourselves and do not bind yourselves to material things but to God. And do not forget, little children, that your life is transitory like a flower. (08/25/2001)

Little children, you are still attached to earthly things and little to the spiritual life. (01/25/2002)

Open yourselves to prayer and seek from God the conversion of your hearts; everything else he sees and provides. (04/25/2002)

Therefore, my children, cleanse your hearts. Free yourselves from everything that binds you to only what is earthly, and permit what is of God to form your life by your prayer and sacrifice – so that God’s Kingdom may be in your heart; that you may begin to live proceeding from God the Father; that you may always strive to walk with my Son. But for all of this, my children, you must be poor in spirit and filled with love and mercy. You must have pure and simple hearts and always be ready to serve. My children, listen to me, I speak for your salvation. (03/18/2016, Mirjana)

Little children, you are too bound to the earth and earthly things, that is why, Satan is rolling you like the wind rolls the waves of the sea. Therefore, may the chain of your life be prayer with the heart and Adoration of my Son Jesus. Give over your future to Him so that, in Him, you may be joy and an example with your lives to others. (08/25/2016)

You, little children, pray and fight against materialism, modernism and egoism, which the world offers to you. Little children, you decide for holiness, and I, with my Son Jesus, intercede for you. (01/25/2017)
