Meditations and prayers for our times

Morning Prayer

Good morning Father, Father of all mankind. I love you my dear Beloved Father, I love you with all my heart, with all my soul and with all my mind. I thank You for my life and the life of my family. Thank you, Father, for everything you have done for us.

Thank You, Father, for our health. Thank You, Father, for your love and for Your protection.

Father, I offer you this day my free will. Please replace it with Your Divine Will. Show me what You would have me do this day, and help me, my Beloved Father, to accomplish it.

Good morning Mother, Mother of all mankind. I love you, my Beloved Mother. Thank you for your love and your protection. I renew this day my consecration to your Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart and to the Sacred Heart of your beloved Son, our Lord Jesus.

Please Mother, ask Saint Joseph to protect and intercede for me and my family this day. I thank God for my beloved Guardian Angel and for all the Guardian Angels of my family. I ask for their intercession and protection upon each one of us this day. Amen, Amen, Amen.

 

Suggested short-form of daily renewal and personal consecration:

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, truly present in the Holy Eucharist, I consecrate my body and soul to be entirely one with Your Heart, being sacrificed at every instant on all the altars of the world and giving praise to the Father, pleading for the coming of His Kingdom. Please receive this humble offering of myself. Use me as You will for the glory of the Father and the salvation of souls. Most Holy Mother of God, never let me be separated from your Divine Son. Please defend and protect me as your special child. Amen.

The Sorrowful Mysteries

As you now prepare to say The Sorrowful Mysteries of the Holy Rosary, first make an act of praise and reparation (as given by Our Lord):

May the most sacred, most adorable, most incomprehensible and ineffable name of God be forever praised, blessed, loved, adored and glorified in Heaven, on Earth and under the earth, by all creatures of God and by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ, in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. Amen.

Picture in your mind the Holy Face of Jesus… Our Lord said, “By offering My Face to My Eternal Father, nothing will be refused and the conversion of many sinners will be obtained”:

Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Adorable Face of Thy Beloved Son for the honor and glory to Thy Name, for the conversion of sinners and the salvation of the dying, especially in this city of (your city’s name) and all the cities in this world. Amen.

You now say the Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, the Hail Mary 3 times and one Glory Be, followed by the Meditations:

 

The First Sorrowful Mystery

After contemplating Our Blessed Lord kneeling in the garden of Gethsemane, His holy pores opened after releasing the sacred blood, we pray:

O Blessed Jesus, I invoke you through Your holy wounds and I place inside each of the open pores of your sacred sorrow and agony, all those in the media, especially those who create and decide what we and our children watch, hear and read. I pray especially for those who are actively promoting pornography, perversion, immorality and the occult; in movies, on the internet, in magazines, but most importantly, on television.

I pray through Your most precious blood, and with it, seal into these holy wounds, each of these people. Lord Jesus, I bind in Your holy Name all evil from corrupting these people any further and invoke Your divine Justice and Your divine Mercy upon them. Amen.

 

The Second Sorrowful Mystery

After contemplating Our Blessed Lord hanging by chains from the column of flagellation, His sacred flesh ripped and gouged, we pray:

O Blessed Jesus, I invoke you through Your holy wounds and I place inside each of the deepest gaping wounds on Your most holy back, which in one, exposed Your sacred bone, all world leaders and all those in government and politics, especially those who would seek to enslave freedom.

I pray through Your most precious blood and with it, seal into these Holy wounds, each of these people, Lord Jesus, I bind in Your holy name all evil from corrupting these people any further and invoke Your Divine Justice and Your Divine Mercy upon them. Amen.

 

The Third Sorrowful Mystery

After contemplating Our Blessed Lord drenched in His Sacred Blood, torn and crushed by blows, barely able to breathe, they buffet Him, and drive deep into His Sacred Skull the crown of mockery, we pray:

O Blessed Jesus, I invoke you through Your Holy Wounds and I place inside each of these ineffable, searing, mortal wounds, caused by those dagger-like thorns of marine junk, all those in finance and commerce. All those who have sold or will sell their eternal souls for greed, for power.

I pray through Your Most Precious Blood and with it, seal into these Holy Wounds, each of these people. Lord Jesus, I bind in Your Holy Name all evil from corrupting these people any further and invoke Your Divine Justice and Divine Mercy upon them. Amen.

 

The Fourth Sorrowful Mystery

After contemplating Our Blessed Lord fallen for the third time, His holy feet so badly tortured, His blessed legs so torn, His beloved knees so damaged, His most holy hands, arms and elbows so bruised, battered and racked by throbbing pain. But most of all dear Jesus, we remember the wound on Your sacred shoulder on which your bore Your beloved cross. This wound which so caused your sacred flesh and bones an anguish, a misery, greater than any other holy wound. Your flesh so torn, Your bones laid bare.

We pray: O Blessed Jesus, I invoke you through Your holy wounds and I place deep inside these salvific torments all those who have authority over others. From the simplest authority, to those who hold the lives and fate of others in their hands.

I pray through Your most Precious Blood and with it, seal into these Holy Wounds, each of these people. Lord Jesus, I bind in Your Holy Name all evil from corrupting these people any further and invoke Your Divine Justice and Divine Mercy upon them. Amen.

 

The Fifth Sorrowful Mystery

After contemplating Our Blessed Lord nailed to His Cross, suffering an excruciating and horrific death, His every tormented thought centered on us, our redemption and salvation, finally giving us into the care of His Mother, we pray:

O Blessed Jesus, I invoke you through Your holy wounds and I place deep inside each of these wounds of the Crucifixion; Your beloved hands, Your holy feet and the revered wound in Your sacred side, all families, especially those within the city of (your city’s name), who have or are about to commit divorce, all those who have committed the abomination of abortion or are contemplating abortion, and all those who have fallen prey to perversion and adultery. I place in these cruel and devastating wounds as well, all children of these individuals and families, to keep them free from the stain of these sins and to keep them under the protection of the Holy Family, free from the desires of the flesh and fervor for the things of this world.

I pray through Your Most Precious Blood and with it, seal into these holy wounds, each of these people. Lord Jesus, I bind in Your Holy Name all evil from corrupting these people any further and invoke Your Divine Justice and Your Divine Mercy upon them. Amen.

Followed by: Hail Holy Queen, St. Michael Prayer and then repeat 10 times: “Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I love you, save souls.”

These prayers are the prayers of the founders given by Our Lord to Sr. Marie of St. Peter from Tours, France. Sr. Marie recounted this to St. Bernard of Clairvaux.
