Joan of Arc: Difference between revisions

: It was the faith that was transferred to her throughout her mission that enabled her to be victorious for France and for the threefold flame that is the symbol of France—the fleur-de-lis—that fire that burns on the altar of every heart.<ref>Archangel Michael, October 10, 1976.</ref>

: As I stood with Joan of Arc in the campaigns against the forces of darkness, I gave her the strength and the courage and the determination to go forward when all seemed lost, when all on the side of right were ready to give up, were ready to turn back. It is then that I whispered in her ear, “Charge! Charge! Charge!”  

: And so she repeated the sound and the command, and the very power of my flame of faith summoned the forces of France in defense of the flame of liberty. So then, I give you that same inspiration, that same byword. When all seems wrong and all seems heavy and all seems to go to naught, that is the time to remember to ''charge! charge! charge'' with light and manifest the victory of [[Mighty Victory]] and his legions.<ref>{{POWref|17|15}}</ref>

Archangel Uriel and Aurora have spoken of the life of Joan of Arc:  

: Now learn from the example of the Maid of Orléans. She was within a hair’s breadth of a victorious mission when, counter to the warnings of her inner “Voices,” she attacked a town that harbored French loyalists to England. They betrayed her and allowed the English to entrap her. The French king responded to the English demands for her ransom with a mere ho-hum. He no longer had any use for this Maid of Orléans, though she had given her all for him.

: Ironically, her ransom was finally paid by her enemies in the Church. But they wanted her solely for vengeance, and their devious machinations reached their denouement on May 30, 1431, when she was burned at the stake. At the last, Archangel Michael instructed her to inhale the smoke that her pain not be protracted, whereupon her soul took flight to higher realms.

: Blessed ones, those were the times when people decided to wage war and win. It was clear-cut. And although Joan of Arc caused her own downfall by her failure to follow her inner guides, she did not deny her tie to them at her trial. On the contrary, she went to the stake defending her right to direct communion with God.<ref>Uriel and Aurora, {{POWref|40|23}}</ref>

: Some of you remember well the story of Joan of Arc. You remember the burden upon her, and you know that I was with her and led her. And you must realize that if the Maid of Orléans can come forth and lead armies, then you, precious hearts, surely can do anything—surely, in your faith in God and the conviction of his promises, you can do anything.<ref>{{POWref|29|9}}</ref>
