Medjugorje, August 18, 2026
Dear Friends, praise be to Jesus and Mary!
1. On July 25th 2026, the visionary, Marija, received the following monthly message:
“Dear children! While darkness and peacelessness rule in many hearts, you, little children, be prayer and my extended hands of love. Little children, place the Sacred Scripture in a visible place in your family and read it, so that it may be an encouragement for you to conversion and a new life; because Satan is strong and seduces hearts. Your hearts, through my maternal Heart, I desire to commend to the Heart of my Son Jesus, so that He, the Risen One, may reign in you and joy may begin to reign in you and around you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
(With ecclesiastical approval)

2. A battlefield! In today’s world we see how difficult the battle between good and evil really is! “Darkness and anxiety reign in many hearts,” Mary tells us in her latest message… She sees all and understands all; she knows God’s plan as well as the enemy’s. She knows full well on which side the final victory lies—that of her Son Jesus—not only for the Head of the Body of the Church but for all its members. She also knows the cost of that victory for her Son. Her Mother’s heart is filled with tenderness for each of us, her children, and she unceasingly intercedes so that we may make the right choices—so that we may choose Life!
Revelations from the enemy? During exorcisms, demons sometimes speak openly at the command of priests appointed by the Church as Exorcists. It was in this way that Father Gabriele Amorth obtained some enlightening words regarding what best disarms demons and their evil plans, and what prevents them from harming us—knowledge that is crucial if we want to avoid falling into their traps! (PS1)

Rather than quoting here the words he pried from the demons, I prefer to cite the treasures of grace available to us in the Church. The invisible enemies view these treasures as disasters for themselves, for through them they are greatly weakened or even utterly defeated. Here are the most important treasures of grace; they are our weapons of victory…

Eucharistic adoration of Jesus—whether He is hidden in the tabernacle or exposed on the altar—is unbearable to them. As pure spirits, demons—fallen though they may be—know perfectly well where Jesus is and where He is not. They can distinguish a consecrated host from an unconsecrated one. How do they react when the faithful adore Jesus in the Eucharist? The light blinds and burns them; they cannot endure it. If the faithful truly realized WHO is present in the Eucharistic Bread and opened themselves to the power of His love, they would kneel and adore Him, and darkness would flee from this world!

The sincere confession of sins to a priest, for it strips demons of the hold they have gained over the soul through its sins. Mary tells us: “You, my children, you should be concerned only for your soul, because it is the only thing on earth that belongs to you. You will bring it, dirty or clean, before the Heavenly Father.” (July 2, 2016)
Any sincere prayer addressed to Mary makes them flee—especially the Rosary. The mere mention of Mary’s name strikes them a blow, for they have never managed to reach this creature who is so humble and so pure. “Look at me with your heart,” Mary tells us, “speak to me as a mother about your pains, sufferings and your joys….” (March 2, 2017). “Pray for my intentions so that, through your prayers, you may stop Satan’s plan over this world, which is further from God every day, and which puts itself in the place of God and is destroying everything that is beautiful and good in the souls of each of you. Therefore, little children, arm yourselves with prayer and fasting so that you may be conscious of how much God loves you….” (October 25, 2008).
Fasting is unbearable to them because it purifies the soul of their harmful influence and brings about many conversions. When coupled with prayer, fasting can prevent wars, stop wars, and suspend the laws of nature.

Prayer for those who do not yet know God’s love is deeply pleasing to God, and the enemy cannot withstand the divine strength and light that radiates from such prayer offered on behalf of so many souls.
Forgiveness granted to those who have harmed us and prayer for our enemies—demons cannot bear these things, for they destroy the bitterness, resentment, anger, hatred, and desire for revenge that the demons seek to instill in our hearts. Mary tells us: “Forgiveness is the most exalted form of love” (June 2, 2019). ” Let your only instrument always be love” (July 31, 1986).
Every act of true charity drives them away, for true love reminds them of the One who conquered them on the Cross out of love for mankind. All true love triumphs over demons. “Love covers a multitude of sins,” St. Peter tells us (1 Peter 4:8). “There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for those who one loves,” Jesus tells us (John 15:13).
Prayer for the conversion of sinners—always answered by God—is unbearable to them, because many souls turn to God and escape their grasp. They are forced to let go of their prey.
Prayer to the Holy Spirit is unbearable to them. It annihilates them. The Holy Spirit is Uncreated Light; He is communion, a flame of love… Demons are darkness and division; they are driven by hatred… they cannot withstand it!
Offering our sufferings to Jesus, in union with His own sufferings on the Cross, obtains salvation for many souls and brings about miracles. These offerings disarm demons and prevent the soul from joining in their demonic rebellion. The enemy seeks to incite us to rebel against God when we suffer. But Mary tells us: “Take the cross of my beloved Son Jesus in your hands and meditate on His passion and death. May your suffering be united in His suffering and love will win, because He who is love gave Himself out of love to save each of you..” (March 25, 2013). Through baptism, we have become priests, prophets, and kings. By offering up our sufferings, we are granted a share in the work of Redemption accomplished by Christ. “Dear children… I am calling you to my Son. Only He can transform despair and suffering into peace and clarity; only He can give hope in the deepest pain…” (September 2, 2018).
The humble prayer of the Stations of the Cross is intolerable to them; they flee at full speed, for it was through the Cross that Christ accomplished our salvation—and, by the same token, their own definitive undoing.

Intercession for the souls in Purgatory or at the bedside of the dying is unbearable to them. For the souls delivered by our prayers help us, in turn, to avoid attachment to earthly things and to overcome our evil inclinations. A total loss for the enemy.
Prayers of reparation are like poison to them; they destroy their harmful works and their evil schemes to ruin holy things.
Daily reading of Holy Scripture. The spirit of death flees from this reading; it seeks to turn us away from it and make us despise it, for as Jesus says: “Whoever hears my word and believes in Him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has passed over from death to life” (John 5:24). “Whoever receives my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me; and whoever loves me will be loved by my Father; I too will love him and show myself to him” (John 14:21).
The use of holy water, exorcised salt and oil, exorcised incense and all sacramentals drive them away. Mary asks us to return to using holy water in our homes in her message of December 26, 1982, and to carry blessed objects (small crosses or medals) as signs to Satan that we belong to her. A word of caution: do not wear Zodiac signs or so-called “lucky charms”—they are actually “misfortune magnets”! By tradition, Croatian believers are accustomed to sprinkling holy water inside and around their homes every Saturday! Let us adopt this beautiful tradition!
The power of holy water! Last year, an experienced exorcist priest asked a young Canadian priest to join him in prayer for the deliverance of a possessed person. The woman was thirsty and asked for water; the young priest went to get her a glass, but the other priest rebuked him: “You must bless the water before giving it to her—especially for a deliverance prayer!” So, he blessed the water and gave it to the woman. She began to drink but then started spitting and screaming, furious with the young priest: “I asked you for water, not fire; it’s burning me! My whole throat is on fire!” Today, the young priest makes no secret of what that experience meant to him: “It was Satan who taught me the power of holy water,” he says, “and the power of a priest’s blessing.”
