INTRODUCTION

The Rosary is a powerful weapon, given to the Church for the end of times, to overcome the devil’s influence on the lives of every Christian. To understand the Rosary and its great power of intercession, we must go back to the beginning of the Bible, where God commands Moses to build the tent of meeting (the tabernacle), which housed the Ark of the Covenant, the most sacred object of Israel. In the Ark was placed the tablets of the Ten Commandments, which Moses had received on Mount Sinai, Aaron’s rod, endowed with miraculous power and a divine sign of the priesthood of the tribe of Levi, and manna, a nourishment from heaven that allowed Israel’s survival in the desert. Over the Ark was the mercy seat with the golden cherubim. God promised He would speak with Moses when Moses approached the Ark which was full of God’s presence and sacredness.

By means of the Ark of the Covenant, God gave Israel incredible blessings and victories in battle. When, through their unfaithfulness, the Israelites became captives of the Babylonians, the Ark was hidden by the priests of Israel and has never been found.

Next, Jesus Christ gloriously appears in this history; He fulfills the prophecy of the redemption and salvation of all humanity, ascends into heaven, sends the Holy Spirit, and provides the foundation of the Church. The Gospels are written. Additionally, the last and most mysterious book of the Bible is written, the Book of the Revelation, also known as the Apocalypse. The Jews, who convert to Christianity in large numbers, read the prophecies of the Apocalypse and, with great surprise, discover the location of the Ark of the Covenant. Where? In heaven! They learn that God, at a certain time, will open His temple and show the Ark to the rest of the world. There is another surprise: the Ark is no longer a gold-covered wooden chest, but a woman, clothed with the sun and bathed in God’s mighty power, with a crown of twelve stars. She is not only Queen of the Earth, but also Queen of the Heavens and the Universe. She has the moon under her feet which means symbolically that she conquers the powers of hell.

How marvelous God’s pedagogy! He allowed the Ark of the Old Testament to disappear and never be found because the Ark of the Old Testament was only a precursor of the true and the most beautiful Ark: Mary, the Mother of God.

Mary is the Mother of God, who carried in her womb the most sacred archpriest, Jesus Christ. He, in the most perfect way, fulfilled God’s commandments given to Moses on Mount Sinai and, on Calvary, established a new, everlasting covenant between God and man. He remained with us as manna, the Bread from Heaven that gives eternal life and is offered at every Eucharist celebration in every corner of the world, till the end of time. The prophecy of the Apocalypse is fulfilled before our own eyes. The temple in heaven is opened, and God presents the true Ark of the Covenant, Mary, to the whole world!

Since the mid-nineteenth century, the Church has documented over two thousand Marian apparitions throughout the world. These acts of heaven were so amazing that a special theological commission has been established to investigate such phenomena.

In every one of these apparitions, Mary - the Ark of the Covenant—unceasingly calls us to pray the Rosary. She tells us that this prayer is the most powerful weapon for the end of times! It has the power of an exorcism, vanquishing the devil’s influence in the lives of men and leading us to the final defeat of the Evil One by God through the intercession of the Mother of God and her army of saints. However, the Rosary is a weapon one needs to learn how to use to combat the Evil One.

Mary is the Master of the Rosary, and she wants to teach us how to fight with it on a master’s level! The secret of the Rosary has been hidden by God in the beginning of the Bible and revealed by Him in the last book of the Bible. Let us recall that God promised Moses that He would listen to all petitions and would grant all victories and blessings when Moses prayed at the Ark of the Covenant. In the end of times, God promises He will hear our prayers and give us blessings as we pray at the new Ark, Mary, with her prayer, the Rosary. Enter God’s promises and receive the blessings of victory!
