We talk about that all the time. This is the center of Our Lady’s plan: Prayer! Again, this is the most frequent message in Medjugorje. Let us quote just a few more simple messages about prayer:

What are the prayers Our Lady recommends? The four mysteries of the Rosary everyday, the Adoration of the Holy Sacrament, prayers to the Holy Spirit (especially before Mass), prayers in front of the Crucifix, prayers of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

February 25, 1988
The power of satan is destroyed by prayer and he cannot harm us if we pray. That is why no Christian should be afraid of the future, unless he does not pray. And if he does not pray, is he a Christian? If we do not pray, we are naturally blind to many things; we cannot tell right from wrong. We lose our center; we lose our balance.
In the Love of Our Lady,
