BINDING EVIL SPIRITS

Pope Francis recently visited the gypsy community in Rome and celebrated Mass at San Giuseppe all’Aurelio. The Holy Father spoke about babies crying in church: “...Children cry, they are noisy, they don’t stop moving. But it really irritates me when I see a child crying in church and someone says they must go out. God’s voice is in a child’s tears: they must never be kicked out of church.” _ Catholic World News

Pope Francis was speaking to parents of children (babies) baptized in the last year. He called children’s tears “the best sermon” -- but when babies cry in church, they often scream as well... And when this happens, sensitive mothers usually remove their children of their own accord -- they are not kicked out of church. Are they?

Why do babies cry during Mass? Of course, there are many reasons -- but I want to focus on their “spiritual sensitivity” ...

We know that babies are very sensitive and can be “over-stimulated” by the world around them. They can have difficulty processing it all -- people crowded together, the many voices, the music, the noise, the lights, the movement (standing, sitting, kneeling...) -- all too much to take in, especially while teething...

If we had eyes to see what is unseen, we would see a multitude of angels present at every Mass. But can evil spirits also be present in the church during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass?

Babies are “spiritually” sensitive.

During a 3-year mission in the Miles Platting area of Manchester, England (1993-1995), I attended Mass at the Basilica of Corpus Christi, a Norbertine Priory. One day during Mass, I was unusually distracted. The babies in the church were crying -- all of them!

I received an inspiration and said, "Evil spirits in this church, I BIND you in Jesus’ Name.” Immediately, the babies in the church stopped crying -- all of them!


Yes. Evil spirits can be present in the church during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The people bring them in with them. And babies react to an evil presence. (In the Traditional Latin Mass, the priest sprinkles the people with holy water before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass begins. Holy water drives out evil spirits.)

Have you ever been unusually distracted by thoughts during Mass -- even while trying to focus your attention on the readings and prayers?

Whenever your “inner peace” is disturbed, realize that something is disturbing it! And one way to restore peace is to BIND evil spirits: “Evil spirits, I BIND you in Jesus’ Name.”

MORE THAN MENTAL ILLNESS

 
I know three families who are desperately trying to get help from the Catholic Church for a family member suffering with demonic possession. Two families have been trying to get help for about five years; for the other family, it has been eight years. How many cases of demonic possession are "falling through the cracks?" 

Listed in the Roman Ritual are five indicators (signs) of possible demonic possession: 1) speaking foreign or ancient languages of which the possessed has no prior knowledge; 2) supernatural abilities and strength; 3) knowledge of hidden or remote things which the possessed has no way of knowing; 4) an aversion to anything holy; 5) profuse blasphemy and/or sacrilege. And when these specific signs of demonic possession are absent, the “rite of exorcism” is usually denied.

But there are other signs/indicators of demonic possession. Sometimes it takes more time to discern these other signs; sometimes it is a compilation of signs. It is also possible for one to be “partially” possessed -- that is, demonized.

The partially possessed person is "demonized" -- that is,
has an evil spirit in his/her body.

Too many cases of possession are "falling through the cracks." They are considered (and dismissed as) oppression or obsession -- or misdiagnosed as mental illness.

What are these other signs/indicators of demonic possession?

The following is from a 2010 case that was not recognized as demonic possession. It is from my correspondence with a desperate mother seeking help for her suffering son.

It is obvious that something more than mental illness is happening here! And many of the same signs/indicators are present in current cases.

A young man had been depressed for a couple months... His mother writes:

"He made his room real dark so that sunlight doesn't shine in. He starts crying for no reason. Then he shakes, becomes violent, and punches holes in walls. Cursing, throwing things, playing with fire. He broke windows, he had episodes of destroying his bedroom, ripping up photos, breaking stereos, cell phones, remote controls. He coughs alot and has thick phlem. He makes noises, and hears you talk even if you talk as low as possible."

"His father committed suicide in 2003 and I think but am not sure if he is experiencing energy from the dark side. I need some help please. He also doesn't associate with family and friends much. He stays home all day and goes out at night between the hours of 9 pm and 2 am."

"... I didn't believe that this happens in real life. I just started noticing changes within the last couple months. He won't go see a psychiatrist for any help."

"My oldest son said when he lived here and slept in this room he would experience and see things. I'm scared to death of what's going on. My sister would never feel comfortable here and would never use the bathroom upstairs."

"As far as I know... he is not involve with the Occult. I don't know what to do or where to turn or what is really going on. I JUST KNOW HE SEEMED DEPRESSED AND NOW ITS GETTING WORSE AND HE BECOMES ANGRY AND DESTRUCTIVE AND CRYS AND SHAKES FORCEFULLY AND HE WONT TELL ME WHATS BOTHERING HIM! HIS FATHER COMMITTED SUICIDE IN 2003 AND I'M AFRAID HE'S GONNA DO THE SAME."

"He has never been baptized. He got into smoking weed which makes him vulnerable for take-over -- Am I correct?"

"I'm not going crazy. I don't use drugs or alcohol, and I can feel something is really wrong. I feel like when I leave in the morning that someone is watching me from his window. It's really scary and creepy."

"I am not getting no where with him. I had the cops here 4 times already and no help. I contacted the priest you referred me to but he has not returned any of my phone calls."

"Still breaking holes in the wall, threatening to commit suicide. Nobody is helping. Police took him for several psychiatric evaluations -- and they let him go. I contacted Crisis today to see if they can help because even if there is demonic activity, he also needs psychiatric care."

"They are releasing him from the hospital today. I was wondering if you have heard anything yet about getting him baptized."

"I have been praying, still haven't noticed a change, unless its my nerves. I've been real shaky and my body trembles when I'm sleeping. I hope he (the parish priest) contacts me soon. He was released today."

"...I think Father (parish priest) was trying to call me last night, but the phone only rang twice, and when I answered there was nothing but (name of church) showed up on my caller ID. As for me, I am still praying and I am still shaky..."

"Thanks to the hospital releasing my son and not getting the help he needed, he ended up taking someones life. I am totally stressed out and hurting so bad."

In submission to rightful spiritual authority, I presented the facts of this case to the parish priest. I explained that this is a case of demonic possession, and that the young man had never been baptized. I trusted the priest to act on this -- but he waited too long...

The young man is now in prison. He has not yet been baptized -- and he is still possessed. The priest continues to visit him in prison and is doing all he can do. (The young man is allowed only one visitor.)

“O Jesus, I surrender
Miguel, Dillon, Daniel and Guillermo
To You;
Take care of everything!” 

“To fix a set ‘model’ for demonic possession would be a serious mistake; the affliction runs the gamut of symptoms and severity.” _ Fr. Gabriele Amorth

TEMPTATIONS OF THE DEVIL

Dictated by St. Catherine of Siena (1347-1380) during a state of ecstasy while in dialog with God the Father.

 
Of the use of temptations, and how every soul in her (his) extremity sees her (his) final place either of pain or of glory, before she (he) is separated from the body.
 
“The Devil, dearest daughter, is the instrument of My Justice to torment the souls who have miserably offended Me. And I have set him in this life to tempt and molest My creatures, not for My creatures to be conquered, but that they may conquer, proving their virtue, and receive from Me the glory of victory. And no one should fear any battle or temptation of the Devil that may come to him, because I have made My creatures strong, and have given them strength of will, fortified in the Blood of My Son, which will, neither Devil nor creature can move, because it is yours, given by Me. You therefore, with free arbitration, can hold it or leave it, according as you please.
 
It is an arm, which, if you place it in the hands of the Devil, straightway becomes a knife, with which he strikes you and slays you. But if man do not give this knife of his will into the hands of the Devil, that is, if he do not consent to his temptations and molestations, he will never be injured by the guilt of sin in any temptation, but will even be fortified by it, when the eye of his intellect is opened to see My love which allowed him to be tempted, so as to arrive at virtue, by being proved. For one does not arrive at virtue except through knowledge of self, and knowledge of Me, which knowledge is more perfectly acquired in the time of temptation, because then man knows himself to be nothing, being unable to lift off himself the pains and vexations which he would flee; and he knows Me in his will, which is fortified by My goodness, so that it does not yield to these thoughts. And he has seen that My love permits these temptations, for the devil is weak, and by himself can do nothing, unless I allow him. And I let him tempt, through love, and not through hatred, that you may conquer, and not that you may be conquered, and that you may come to a perfect knowledge of yourself, and of Me, and that virtue may be proved, for it is not proved except by its contrary.
 
You see, then, that he is my Minister to torture the damned in Hell, and in this life, to exercise and prove virtue in the soul. Not that it is the intention of the Devil to prove virtue in you (for he has not love), but rather to deprive you of it, and this he cannot do, if you do not wish it. Now you see, then, how great is the foolishness of men in making themselves feeble, when I have made them strong, and in putting themselves into the hands of the Devil. Wherefore, know, that at the moment of death, they, having passed their life under the lordship of the Devil (not that they were forced to do so, for as I told you they cannot be forced, but they voluntarily put themselves into his hands), and, arriving at the extremity of their death under this perverse lordship, they await no other judgment than that of their own conscience, and desperately, despairingly, come to eternal damnation. Wherefore Hell, through their hate, surges up to them in the extremity of death, and before they get there, they take hold of it, by means of their lord the Devil.
 
As the righteous, who have lived in charity and died in love, if they have lived perfectly in virtue, illuminated with the light of faith, with perfect hope in the Blood of the Lamb, when the extremity of death comes, see the good which I have prepared for them, and embrace it with the arms of love, holding fast with pressure of love to Me, the Supreme and Eternal Good. And so they taste eternal life before they have left the mortal body, that is, before the soul be separated from the body. Others who have passed their lives, and have arrived at the last extremity of death with an ordinary charity (not in that great perfection), embrace My mercy with the same light of faith and hope that had those perfect ones, but, in them, it is imperfect, for, because they were imperfect, they constrained My mercy, counting My mercy greater than their sins. The wicked sinners do the contrary, for, seeing, with desperation, their destination, they embrace it with hatred, as I told you. So that neither the one nor the other waits for judgment, but, in departing this life, they receive every one their place, as I have told you, and they taste it and possess it before they depart from the body, at the extremity of death -- the damned with hatred and with despair, and the perfect ones with love and the light of faith and with the hope of the Blood. And the imperfect arrive at the place of Purgatory, with mercy and the same faith.”

A Treatise of Discretion (pp. 47-48)

EBOLA SCARE 2014


I strongly sense something terribly sinister unfolding… And I believe it is God’s will for me to write about this. As always, it is for you to (prayerfully) discern.

The state-controlled media is trying very hard to convince us that we should all be very afraid of this Ebola outbreak. The Ebola fear mongering propaganda campaign is in full swing. The purpose of this high level of media hype is to scare us.

We are being conditioned to blindly accept whatever Ebola vaccine the CDC recommends in the near future. And when the new vaccine comes out, people will run to the doctor or stand in line at the neighborhood drug store (or local inoculation station) to receive it! It has happened before.


The 1976 Swine Flu Scare & Vaccine

The CBS “60 Minutes” documentary on the 1976 “swine flu epidemic” that proved to be a hoax -- and the “swine flu vaccine” that killed hundreds and permanently maimed/injured thousands of people in the U.S.

Mike Wallace Exposes 1976 Swine Flu Vaccine Injuries
On "60 Minutes" (Nov. 4, 1979).
click to view video


Summary of Interview:

The CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) did not test the actual vaccine that went to 46 million Americans. The swine flu vaccine killed hundreds and permanently maimed/injured thousands in the U.S.

The CDC knew about the possible permanent neurological damage that could result from taking the flu shot. The public was not warned, and waivers for people to sign before getting the shot omitted this information.

The entire vaccine campaign was ordered by the U.S. Government and started before any confirmed case of swine flu was actually found. [The only confirmed swine flu death was a soldier at Ft. Dix, N.J. who had the flu and collapsed on a forced march. Four other soldiers who also had the flu were back to normal within days without getting a shot.]

The CDC freely used the names of well-known celebrities without their consent to launch the mass immunization program. [Mary Tyler Moore’s testimony is: The CDC lied; she did not take the shot. She suspected it was not healthy, and her doctor later agreed.]

When challenged about the “important people” who took the flu shot, Dr. David Sencer stated, “…at least of that group President Ford did take the vaccination.” (President Gerald R. Ford was a 33rd Degree Master Mason, and it was President Ford who ordered the swine flu vaccination.)
 
Dr. David Sencer, director of the CDC at the time, ordered the swine flu vaccination program, and the advertising campaign for it. Not once was any warning found in any of the literature.

The 1976 Swine Flu Epidemic was a hoax. It was the Swine Flu Vaccine that proved to be the real danger.

Was this about our health and welfare? Was this all about money, and profits for pharmaceutical companies? Was there something even more sinister happening? Was there a hidden agenda?


The 2009-2010 H1N1 Flu Scare & Vaccine

The 2009-2010 H1N1 (Swine) Flu Pandemic was another hoax -- a hyped pandemic that never happened -- and pharmaceutical companies made a lot of money selling vaccines worldwide. They still do! (A perpetual pandemic of 5 years, and counting?) Fear is a most effective marketing tool.

Since 2009, CDC-recommended immunizations (flu shots) for adolescents, adults, seniors and children are available everywhere in the U.S. -- 24 hours a day / 7 days a week / 365 days a year!

CVS sign reads: “When you get a flu shot,
receive a 20% Off Shopping Pass.”

Is this about our health and welfare? Is this all about money, and profits for pharmaceutical companies? Is there something terribly sinister unfolding? What is the hidden agenda?

Flu season occurs during the cold winter months. And yet, since 2009, every time I go to the VA Medical Center during the hot summer months, I am reminded that I have not yet received my flu shot. This doesn’t make sense. Where I live, no one gets the flu in August!

[Last month I received a form in the mail from the VA (Veterans Administration). If I am not getting the flu shot from the VA, the VA wants to know where I am getting it -- or am I declining to get it. (What is in the flu vaccine that the U.S. Government wants inside the body of every veteran?)]

Like the 1976 Swine Flu Epidemic, the 2009-2010 H1N1 Flu Pandemic was a hoax. But people continue to get the flu shot every year; they have been successfully conditioned to do so. And
when the new Ebola vaccine comes out, they will run to the doctor or stand in line at the neighborhood drug store (or local inoculation station) to receive it!

~ * * * ~

We are also being conditioned to accept whatever solution the UN may propose to fight this Ebola pandemic. [The WHO (World Health Organization) is the United Nations public health arm. UNICEF (United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund) is in 190 countries and territories.] This solution will probably be a global vaccination program. But can the UN be trusted?

The UN has a history of using vaccines to infect and kill. The UN has a sinister population control agenda that includes forced vaccinations in third world countries. How safe are we?

Very sobering indeed.

Spread the effect of grace of Thy Flame of Love 
Over all of humanity, 
Now and at the hour of our death.

SEX DEMONS, INCUBI AND SUCCUBI

It is common for people with sexual sins (sexual fantasy, masturbation, fornication, pornography, adultery and/or homosexual practices) to be harassed or seduced nightly by sex demons (demons of lust) with vivid sexual dreams and sexually-explicit nightmares. (Sex demons can invade our dreams with pornographic fantasies of having sexual relations -- even with members of the same sex!) But some people are attacked, molested or raped "nightly" by sex demons (incubi and succubi).


“Last night as I lay on my bed, I heard someone whisper my name... Something spread my legs, and I was full of lust. It got on top of me and I could hardly breathe. I couldn't move. Then it (an “incubus”) started having sex with me! I know this sounds crazy but it happened.”

The unwanted spirit would visit her during the night. It would sexually stimulate her until she was powerless to resist. Then, she would succumb.

A few years ago, I was contacted by a man being harassed every day by sex demons (demons of lust). The attacks had been so subtle that he didn't recognize them as being demonic. At first he thought he had some kind of flea infestation in his carpet. The (invisible) fleas would attack his eyelashes, nose and ears... They would swarm around his legs -- and then swarm to his crotch, sting his genitals and sexually stimulate him.

INCUBI AND SUCCUBI

The incubus is a fallen angel -- a sex demon in male form that seduces and lies upon a woman during the night in order to have sexual relations with her. The succubus is a sex demon in female form that seduces and lies upon a man during the night in order to have sexual relations with him.

While asleep in bed, the woman or man is sexually aroused by some kind of (cold) dark presence in the room. It is a lustful presence that seduces... and stimulates. It is an entity that eventually attempts sexual penetration.

"The Nightmare" - Johann Henry Fuseli (1781)

Many women enjoy having “spiritual sex” with an incubus, a passionate lover that becomes a jealous "spirit husband." Many men enjoy having “spiritual sex” with a succubus, a passionate lover that becomes a jealous "spirit wife." Pleasant sexual arousal, seduction and carnal intercourse (during the night) can lead to unwelcomed sexual advances, molestation and rape (anytime). These sex demons feed upon the sexual energies of women and men. (The result is the deterioration of health.) Compliance with the demon’s desire is rewarded; resistance is severely punished.

When a succubus becomes a spirit wife, it can rob a man of his health and wealth, and destroy his relationships with women. When an incubus becomes a spirit husband, it can rob a woman of her health and wealth, and destroy her relationships with men.

This spirit causes failure in my relationships with men. Things spiral downward. I noticed this in my last relationship. "Oh I loved him and he, I. A promising young man when we met (but) wasn't that much by the time we went our ways."


The incubus or succubus can be summoned with a ritual found on the internet. The result can be demonic possession and a house infested with demons. (I have encountered such a case.)

Evil spirits attack and exploit weakness and vulnerability; they exasperate mental illness; and when doors are opened through sinful behavior... they enter in. In the case of the incubus or succubus, it could be sexual sin and perversion, abortion, sex magic... It could be a curse. (Incubi and succubi can be summoned and sent.) It could be dabbling in witchcraft or the Occult. But a door has been opened; consent has been given.

~ * * * ~

I know a woman who was once a victim of the sexually-stimulating attacks of an incubus. It began with a sexual relationship with a sorcerer, a practitioner of black magic. She told me he had performed “sex magic” on her. This was the “open door” -- her consent given.

Some time later, this woman (touched by evil) was working in the sex industry. She soon started her own “telephone sex” business with another man. Her perverted sexual sins provided another open door.

When the incubus entered her life, the woman welcomed the sexual pleasure it gave. She told me it would “lick” her while she was alone in bed -- but it did not end there! When I met her, she was suicidal, hearing voices… and being sexually assaulted by a demon! (Incubi and succubi are very real.)

~ * * * ~

When a woman is in mortal sin -- not in a state of grace -- prayer will have little effect on the incubus. So too, when a man is in mortal sin -- not in a state of grace -- prayer will have little effect on the succubus. And for one who has not been baptized, there is no protection.



Deliverance is possible through the
Sacraments of the Catholic Church.

If you are serious about stopping these spiritual attacks, you must get serious about living a Sacramental life -- a holy life. This means attending Daily Mass as often as possible and going to Confession as often as needed (when you fall into sin, or at least monthly). You need to grow in "sanctifying grace." [Sanctifying grace stays in the soul. It’s what makes the soul holy; it gives the soul supernatural life.] If you are unwilling to make such a commitment, you will have limited defense against these spiritual attacks.

Sometimes the "renewal of baptismal promises" is needed. Ask your priest to do the Renewal of Baptismal Promises and Sprinkling with Holy Water (as is done every Easter).

Women may need to be delivered from a “spirit husband.” Men may need to be delivered from a “spirit wife.” Some may need a formal exorcism (by a Catholic priest). All will need prayer for inner-healing.

If you are serious about stopping these NIGHTLY spiritual attacks, become a DAILY Communicant.

The incubus or succubus will return (Matthew 12:43-45 / Luke 11:24-26). And when it does return, it must find all doors closed! It must find the person in a “state of grace” and “Sacramentally” fortified.

And whenever you feel the touch (or sting) of the sex demon, cry out to Mary as a child cries out for his mother: "Mother Mary, Queen of Heaven, please pray for me." / "Mother Mary, please protect me during the night."

 
INCUBUS IN SCRIPTURE

The Nephilim appeared on earth in those days, as well as later, after the sons of God (fallen angels) had intercourse with the daughters of human beings, who bore them sons. They were the heroes of old, the men of renown. (Genesis 6:4)

[The belief that semi-divine human beings (giants) -- the heroes of old -- once lived on earth.]

The Bible generally regards them in a negative light (Numbers 13:33; Ezekiel 32:27). The point here is that even these heroes, filled with vitality from their semi-divine origin, come under God’s decree.

He did not forgive the princes of old (the mighty destroyed in the flood) who rebelled long ago in their might. (Sirach 16:7) _ New American Bible

~ * * * ~

The incubus is often referred to as a “spirit husband.” The succubus is often referred to as a “spirit wife.” A severe case of incubus is found in the Book of Tobit (Chapter 6:13-18).

“…Now listen to me, brother (Tobiah); we will speak about this girl (Sarah) tonight, so that we may arrange her engagement to you. Then when we return from Rages [Media (North-West Iran)], we will take her and bring her back with us to your house.”

But Tobiah said to (Archangel) Raphael in reply, “Brother Azariah (Archangel Raphael had disguised himself as a man), I have heard that she has already been given in marriage to seven husbands, and that they have died in the bridal chamber. On the very night they approached her, they would die. I have also heard it said that it was a demon that killed them (the demon of lust, Asmodeus).

So now I too am afraid of this demon, because it is in love with her and does not harm her; but it kills any man who wishes to come close to her…

Raphael said to him: “Do you not remember your father’s commands? He ordered you to marry a woman from your own ancestral family. Now listen to me, brother; do not worry about that demon. Take Sarah. I know that tonight she will be given to you as your wife…

When you go into the bridal chamber, take some of the fish’s liver and the heart, and place them on the embers intended for incense, and an odor will be given off. (In 700 B.C., these organs were believed to have healing powers.) As soon as the demon smells the odor, it will flee and never again show itself near her. Then when you are about to have intercourse with her, both of you must first get up to pray. Beg the Lord of heaven that mercy and protection be granted you… (Tobit 6:13-18) _ New American Bible

The Summa Theologica
St. Thomas Aquinas

...It is not contrary to the truth of the holy angels that through their assumed bodies they appear to be living men, although they are really not. For the bodies are assumed merely for this purpose, that the spiritual properties and works of the angels may be manifested by the properties of man...

Sensation is entirely a vital function. Consequently it can in no way be said that the angels perceive through the organs of their assumed bodies. Yet such bodies are not fashioned in vain; for they are not fashioned for the purpose of sensation through them, but to this end, that by such bodily organs the spiritual powers of the angels may be made manifest...

As Augustine says (De Civ. Dei xv): "Many persons affirm that they have had the experience, or have heard from such as have experienced it, that the Satyrs and Fauns, whom the common folk call incubi (and succubi), have often presented themselves before women, and have sought and procured intercourse with them. Hence it is folly to deny it.

[Now giants (the Nephilim) were upon the earth in those days. For after the sons of God went in to (had intercourse with) the daughters of men, and they brought forth children, these are the mighty men (the heroes) of old, men of renown. (Genesis 6:4) Douay-Rheims Bible]

But God's holy angels could not fall in such fashion before the deluge. Hence by the sons of God are to be understood the sons of Seth, who were good; while by the daughters of men the Scripture designates those who sprang from the race of Cain. Nor is it to be wondered at that giants should be born of them; for they were not all giants, albeit there were many more before than after the deluge." Still if some are occasionally begotten from demons, it is not from the seed of such demons, nor from their assumed bodies, but from the seed of men taken for the purpose; as when the demon assumes first the form of a woman, and afterwards of a man; just as they take the seed of other things for other generating purposes, as Augustine says (De Trin. iii), so that the person born is not the child of a demon, but of a man.

GIFT FROM OUR LADY

Mary our Mother, the Mother of Divine Mercy

I attended the Archdiocese of Philadelphia Catholic Charismatic Conference on April 26, 2014. Fr. Ariel Hernandez, the main celebrant and homilist, showed us a photograph of Our Lady Appearing on an Icon of The Divine Mercy. Reaching over the people in front of me, I took this (perfect) photograph using my old flip phone. This was miraculous.

Can you see the Rosary?

JESUS, I TRUST IN YOU.
MARY, TAKE OVER.

“Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
spread the effect of grace of thy
Flame of Love

NOVENA OF THE MIRACULOUS MEDAL

 
“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Thy faithful and kindle in them the fire of Thy love.
V. Send forth Thy Spirit and they shall be created.
R. And Thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray.
O God, Who did instruct the hearts of the faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit, grant us in the same Spirit to be truly wise, and ever to rejoice in His consolation. Through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen.

O Mary, conceived without sin,
pray for us who have recourse to thee.

O Lord Jesus Christ, Who have vouchsafed to glorify by numberless miracles the Blessed Virgin Mary, immaculate from the first moment of her conception, grant that all who devoutly implore her protection on earth, may eternally enjoy Your presence in heaven, Who, with the Father and Holy Spirit, live and reign, God, for ever and ever. Amen.

O Lord Jesus Christ, Who for the accomplishment of Your greatest works, have chosen the weak things of the world, that no flesh may glory in Your sight; and Who for a better and more widely diffused belief in the Immaculate Conception of Your Mother, have wished that the Miraculous Medal be manifested to Saint Catherine Labouré, grant, we beseech You, that filled with like humility, we may glorify this mystery by word and work. Amen.

The Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence, we fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother; to thee do we come; before thee we stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer them. Amen.

O Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of Our Lord Jesus and our Mother, penetrated with the most lively confidence in thy all-powerful and never-failing intercession, manifested so often through the Miraculous Medal, we thy loving and trustful children implore thee to obtain for us the graces and favors we ask during this Novena, if they be beneficial to our immortal souls, and the souls for whom we pray.

“For all who have asked for my prayers,
for all of their needs…
and for the intentions in their hearts.”

(State your intention here.)

You know, O Mary, how often our souls have been the sanctuaries of your Son, Who hates iniquity. Obtain for us then, a deep hatred of sin and that purity of heart which will attach us to God alone, so that our every thought, word and deed may tend to His greater glory. Obtain for us also, a spirit of prayer and self-denial that we may recover by penance what we have lost by sin, and at length attain to that blessed abode where you are the Queen of angels and of men. Amen.
