Holy Mother Church consecrates the great month of July to the Most Precious Blood of Jesus, the Lamb of God Who redeemed us in His Blood..
About 20 years ago, Jesus Christ revealed exceptionally powerful prayers and Himself taught devotion to His Most Precious Blood, with Episcopal Imprimaturs. This remarkable devotion for our times has already benefited millions of Catholics and likely led to millions of conversions. Secular observers have been astonished to discover as of July last year that Africa is now officially the continent with the most number of Christians in the world. What the most materially advanced countries in the world struggled well to do in and for Africa in nearly 2 millennia, Jesus Christ has done in about 20 years through the seed of a devotion He planted in Nigeria. Not long ago, there was that Islamist lament that every year, six million Muslims convert to Christianity in Africa. When Jesus Christ steps down from Heaven to give a new stream of priceless graces through His Precious Blood to a particular Continent, to the Universal Church, and to the whole world, He expects it to be wholeheartedly embraced by all who live to please Him alone. Let us live and breathe for Jesus and His Precious Blood to Triumph and win victories and hearts everywhere for the Gospel. The Gordon theological seminary study also found the number of Christians had increased in the one single year between 2017 and 2018 by around 50 million, something almost unprecedented in all of history before our own times, that show clearly what the Good God is doing and has done for His Church in Africa- His Work in which we are called to participate. Africa is clearly much beloved to God and one long ago gave many Saints to Mother Church - before the curse and scourge of Islamism descended on poor Africa, and trapped many who would otherwise have been attracted to the Gospel in the idolatrous superstition of voodoo and such like soul-killing and nation-harming pagan practices. Updated study from the same source for last year is expected sometime later in this same month of July.
"Katani starts off describing the overall problem:
Islam used to represent, as you previously mentioned, Africa's main religion and there were 30 African languages that used to be written in Arabic script. The number of Muslims in Africa has diminished to 316 million, half of whom are Arabs in North Africa. So in the section of Africa that we are talking about, the non Arab section, the number of Muslims does not exceed 150 million people. When we realize that the entire population of Africa is one billion people, we see that the number of Muslims has diminished greatly from what it was in the beginning of the last century. On the other hand, the number of Catholics has increased from one million in 1902 to 329 million 882 thousand (329,882,000). Let us round off that number to 330 million in the year 2000.
As to how that happened, well there are now 1.5 million churches whose congregations account for 46 million people. In every hour, 667 Muslims convert to Christianity. Everyday, 16,000 Muslims convert to Christianity. Ever year, 6 million Muslims convert to Christianity. These numbers are very large indeed.
From what I have heard from reliable sources, six million may be too low. Reliable accounts say that one hundred thousand Africans convert to Christianity per day, though not all of them come from Islam. Then Katani says Muslims should build schools before mosques, in order to build the worshipper (Muslim) before the building. Why? To stop the the dangerous "Christian missionary octopus" https://virtueonline.org/six-million-african-muslims-convert-christianity-each-year
"New data, released earlier this year, announced that Africa holds the largest number of Christians in the world. This moves the reigning champs of the title, Latin America into 2nd place.
The Center for the Study of Global Christianity at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, produced an infographic which breaks down the world's Christian population by continent. The results show Africa on top with 631 million Christian residents, Latin America in 2nd place with 601 million Christians, and Europe in 3rd place with 571 million Christians."
From Aleteia: https://aleteia.org/2018/07/24/africa-overtakes-latin-america-for-the-highest-christian-population/
Please continue to pray powerfully and intercede mightily by using these prayers that Christianity may completely defeat the abominable sect of Islamism, that all the remnants of paganism afflicting Africa may be utterly uprooted, as well as that, in His own good time, God may re-unite all baptized Christians separated from Mother Church with Her very soon.
Now, onto the prayers: Many Saints and mystics have confirmed there will be an Anti-Christ before the Period of Peace, a prefigurement of the final Anti-Christ. Simon Magus and the Emperor Nero, beside Judas himself who the Lord calls the son of perdition, were also prefigurements of this son of perdition in Apostolic times. It is by prayer and suffering, by sacrifice and enduring the pains the sinful world that rebels against God causes His Faithful Children, like St. John and Mother Mary with St. Mary Magdalene at the foot of the Cross, that the Church must undergo Her own mystical Crucifixion before Her great Triumph. Like Our Lord Jesus Himself, if we bear all the sufferings God has destined for His Mystical Body rightly up to the end, offering them for the salvation of all, Mother Church will rise again and be rebuilt greater and more glorious than ever before. That is the Message and the Conviction that the Truth of the Resurrection gives us.
PRAYERS
THE MYSTICAL PRAYERS Of Our Lord Jesus Christ
(These prayers, revealed by Our Lord as His petitions to His Heavenly Father during His Passion, were dictated to Barnabas for us to pray daily.)
Prayer to Vanquish Satan and his Agents
(5 July 1998)
("There is no need for you to fear those numerous populations of the enemy. Children, simply offer the Wounds, Pains and Blood of My left Hand for their downfall; you will see them disappear like ashes...I assure you, many kingdoms of the enemy will disappear in the twinkle of an eye. Pray it and teach it to all men. My Precious Blood will save.")
All you great number of enemies of the Holy Death of my Master Jesus Christ on the Cross of Calvary, the prince of darkness and iniquity, the father of all liars. I stand on the death of my Master Jesus Christ and offer His pains, Wounds, and the Precious Blood from His left Hand to the Eternal Father for your downfall, your destruction and your scourging. Amen. Precious Blood of my Master Jesus Christ - reign in me and in the lives of all men. Amen.
Prayer for the Protection and Unity of the Flock
(6 July 1998)
("My children, whenever you say this prayer you are making the hour of my Kingdom on earth come sooner. Through this prayer My Father will let it come down soon; the hour of the Second Pentecost, when My prayer will be fulfilled that all shall be one...All who carry out this devotion will rejoice greatly when My Kingdom comes. I will protect them always.")
Eternal Father, I offer You all the Wounds, pains, and the Precious Blood from the Sacred Feet of Your Son, Our Lord and Master, for all Your children who are wondering like sheep without a shepherd in this terrifying forest. Protect them against wild predators and give them peace that they might be one, and united in the same way as the nail held fast the Feet of my Master and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ - reign forever. Amen.
Prayer for Refuge in the Sacred Side of Jesus Christ
(7 July 1998)
("My children, these evil days will swallow many souls. That is why I teach this mysterious prayer to you in order that you allmight be saved. My Sacred Side is open for all men. Pray it and make it known to all men. All who teach this prayer to others will be protected. I love you all. Run for your lives....")
O Loving Father, God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Who protected the Israelites of old in His Holy Wings in the dryness of the cold and hot desert; I offer You the Holy death of my Master and Savior, Jesus Christ, for the protection of Your people who are scattered all over the world. May the Blood and Water wash and strengthen, save and cleanse us that we might find home in the Sacred Side of Your Son which opens for all men. Amen. Sacred Side of Jesus Christ – be our home for safety. Amen.
Prayer for Release from Ancestral Curses
(8 July 1998)
("My children, pray it and make it known to the whole world. All who are under curses and constantly say this prayer shall be free from their curses. Any family that is suffering from the curse of sins made by their forefathers, and makes a 144 day novena through this prayer, will be freed. All who break a covenant and who are supposed to die shall be saved and also be released from their curse if they constantly say this prayer and repent.")
Eternal Father, You are the only Immortal God, God Who is love, merciful and kind. Look at Your only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ, and have mercy. I offer You the pains of His scourging at the pillar, His Wounds and Blood for all Your people who are living under the weight of the curse due to the sins of their ancestors and their disobedience for breaking the covenant they made with You. May You set us free through the scourging of Your Son, heal us through His Wounds and save us through His Precious Blood. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ – release us from curses. Holy Wounds of Jesus Christ – heal our wounds. By Your scourging – seal us. Amen.
Prayer for the Sustenance of the Faith
(9 July 1998)
("When I was about to leave My people on earth, My agony grew greater when I remembered their unfaithfulness. I also remembered the period that is coming is terrible and fearful; that many will betray Me like Judas, while others will deny that they know me...Children pray this prayer always for faith and make it known to the whole world before the perilous era comes in full force. If you have little faith, even as small as the mustard seed, you will overcome this period. This mysterious prayer is powerful. Teach it to the whole world. I love you all.")
Omnipotent and Omniscient God, God of Elijah and the prophets, look at the Sacred Head of Your only-begotten Son and have mercy. Arise and save Your people. I offer You all the shame, the pains, the Wounds and the Precious Blood from the Sacred Head of Your Son for all Your children who are living in these perilous times. Strengthen our faith through the mockery of Your Son Jesus Christ and save us through the Precious Blood from His Sacred Head. May we through the sufferings of Your Son Jesus Christ learn to suffer in You and die in You. Amen. Holy tortures of Jesus Christ – increase our faith. Amen.
Prayer for the Manifestation of the Divine Will
(10 July 1998)
("My Agony...grew worse and worse when I entered Gethsemane. I looked at my people and saw that they were asleep while their enemy was fast approaching and gaining ground...my Agonizing Heart broke out with these words "Why are you sleeping, can't you watch with me even one hour? Pray that you will not fall into temptation." When I knelt down again in prayer the burden of my death weighed me down. "Father, take this cup away from me, but not my will, rather yours be done."...Finally, I looked up and prayed to my Father thus...make it known to the whole world for the reign of my Father on earth.")
Eternal Father, You are the Creator and Author of life. You love the world You made. That is why You sent Your only-begotten Son to come for its redemption, so that Your Kingdom will come. Look upon Your Son and rise up in Your throne. Raise Your right Hand and save Your people. I offer You all the sufferings, pains, and death of Your only-begotten Son Whom You love, for Your triumph and reign on earth. May You, through the Precious Blood of Your Son, make a new covenant and bring all Your children back to Your Holy Will. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ – reign forever. Agonizing Jesus Christ – Thy Kingdom come. Amen.
Prayer for Endurance through the Coming Chastisement
(13 July 1998)
("My children pray that this period you are living in now will be shortened. Pray also that your faith will not fail. Be on your guard. Be alert and watch always...How many of you will fight and drive back my adversary, conquer, and bring the captives home?...My children learn this prayer and pray it always especially during the hour of trials...When my people rejected me and condemned me and said "Crucify Him! Crucify Him!" I looked up to heaven and prayed to my Father and said...")
Merciful and Loving Father, Your wish is that all men should be saved. Kindly look on Your rejected and condemned Son Who suffered many tortures and will suffer many tortures through the sins of Your people. Look and see what sin has done to your only-begotten Son. I offer all people who are living in these ungodly and wicked days, all the tortures, pains, rejections, and shame of Your Son Jesus Christ to You, for faith to withstand trials and patience to withstand long tortures. May they through the sufferings of Your only Son fight to the end. Amen. Our Lord's torture – increase our faith. Precious Blood of Jesus – save us. Amen.
Prayer for Fallen Sheep and Against a Fall in Faith
(22 July 1998)
("I envisaged constant abandonment of faith in my people and how they will constantly reject their God and crucify Me daily. The pains grew in intensity when I saw how hard it will be for them to return...Many there were who would stop on the way because they thought the way was too hard and too long...How large the number of My people who will lose hope and fall...I say to you, My children, wake up and stand firm! During My fall, I remembered all these things and offered them to My Father through this prayer...Through it, My Father will pour on you all the needed graces to endure until the end. All who pray it devotedly will possess the fullness of the Holy Spirit and learn to be obedient and humble.")
Eternal and Loving Father, look kindly on Your only-begotten Son. See the heavy cross they prepared for Your only Son and have mercy on Your people. I offer You all the pains, sufferings, and the Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ, Emmanuel; for all Your people who have abandoned their faith and will abandon their faith in the mountainous hills and deep valleys of this world. May they through the falling of Your Son under the Cross have strength to rise again and stand firm in the true faith. Through the ocean of His Precious Blood dumped under the Cross on the streets of Jerusalem strengthen all who are eager to do Your Will. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ – strengthen our weakened souls. Amen.
Prayer for the Reign of Glory on Earth
(27 July 1998)
("The manifestation of the Red Dragon and the Antichrist in this last hour of this age pierced My Heart greatly during My ministry on earth and even more when I was about to breathe My last on the cross. As I hung on the cross, I envisaged the proud Dragon. It boasted to reign on earth forever...I silently offered My Father this prayer for the downfall of the enemy of the cross...My children, through this prayer the Antichrist and the Red Dragon and his agents will have a short hour of reign on earth. The more you pray, the shorter the hour of their reign on earth.")
O Loving and Merciful Father, all knowing and all powerful, the Alpha and the Omega, the Eternal Father Who created all things, that You should forsake Your children, Your nature forbids. Look kindly on Your begotten Son Jesus Christ Who came to save men and bring Your Kingdom down on earth. We offer You all the agonies, tortures, pains, and the Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ for the defeat of all the enemies of the Holy Cross of Salvation, the Antichrist and the Red Dragon who are fighting against the truth now and in the end of the age. May they, through the Precious Blood of our Redeemer and His last breath on earth, disappear like foam exposed under the sun, so that Your Kingdom may quickly come on earth. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ – Thy Kingdom come. Amen.
Prayer Against the Sins of the Flesh
(28 July 1998)
("Do you know that I was naked in the sight of all men so that you shall defeat and kill the desires of the flesh which lead to this sin of fornication and adultery? Children, my adversary used this sin to claim all men to himself...Any sinner who constantly prays this prayer will gain true repentance...The more you pray it the more many will return to me and leave fornication and adultery. Many people will be lost due to the sins of the flesh. Work hard to save souls...")
Holy and Merciful Father, Your only-begotten Son is standing naked in the sight of all men, so that Your people will know and fear Your Holy Law. Accept my humble prayer for all Your people who are living under iniquity, fornication and adultery, that through all the shame and disgrace of Your only-begotten Son, You will touch their lives for repentance and save them. May they, through the Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus Christ, which I plead to fall on their hearts, gain repentance and be saved and through His shame make them bold for repentance. Amen.
Prayer for the Baptism of Aborted Babies
(29 July 1998)
("Today the blood of innocent children has filled Heaven. Their number is too great, too great; the wrath of the Eternal Father is about to fall on mankind...Their blood disturbs My Agonizing Heart and increases My agony...Through this prayer, large numbers of innocent unborn babies will be saved; pray it daily and make it known to the world. Anyone who teaches it will not be lost. Innocent souls in Heaven will not let them become lost. I, with My Love and Mercy, will protect them from falling into mortal sin.")
Heavenly Father, Your love is eternal. In your ocean of love, You saved the world through Your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ. Now look at Your only Son on the Cross Who is constantly bleeding for love of His people and forgive Your world. Purify and baptize aborted children with the Precious Blood and Water from the Sacred Side of Your Son who hung dead on the Cross for their salvation – in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. May they through the holy death of Jesus Christ gain everlasting life, through His Wounds be healed, and through His Precious Blood be freed – there to rejoice with the saints in heaven. Amen.?"

If someone wishes to be further convinced of the great efficacy of these prayers, please try praying them for a personal intention. These prayers increase our devotion to Jesus and His Precious Blood and hasten victory.
Edit: Please also pray that the number of new baptized believers in Christ may have increased by as much or even more than 50 million again this year, and even more, that all may have increased by leaps and bounds in the grace of Christ, advanced in holiness and in union with God. As Aleteia says, there were 631 million Christians in Africa as reported in July 2018. We'll know soon how fruitful the Church in Africa has been in the past year.
