Devotion to the Rosary of the Holy Wounds

Visit the forum of this group.
Group created by Lilsheep88

Hello there. This group is dedicated to the devotion and the spread of a powerful, yet relatively uncirculated devotion to the Wounds of Our Lord which is similar to the Divine Mercy. This is a very powerful devotion and great for implying the mercy of Our Lord..

JOIN JOIN JOIN


HISTORY: This devotion to the Holy Wounds and the following promises were revealed by Our Lord to Sr. Mary Martha Chambon (1841-1907), of the Monastery of the Visitation of Chambery. The cause for her beatification was introduced in 1937.

PROMISES OF OUR LORD FOR THOSE WHO PRACTICE THIS DEVOTION

1. At each word that you pronounce of the Chaplet of the Holy Wounds, I allow a drop of My Blood to fall upon the soul of a sinner.
2. Each time that you offer to My Father the merits of My Divine Wounds, you win an immense fortune.
3. Souls that will have contemplated and honored My crown of thorns on earth, will be My crown of glory in Heaven!
4. I will grant all that is asked of Me through the invocation of My Holy Wounds. You will obtain everything, because it is through the merit of My Blood, which is of infinite price. With My Wounds and My Divine Heart, everything can be obtained.
5. From My Wounds proceed fruits of sanctity. As gold puri fied in the crucible becomes more beautiful, so you must put your soul and those of your companions into My sacred Wounds; there they will become perfected as gold in the furnace. You can always purify yourself in My Wounds.
6. My Wounds will repair yours. My Wounds will cover all your faults. Those who honor them will have a true knowledge of Jesus Christ. In meditation on them, you will always find a new love. My Wounds will cover all your sins.
7. Plunge your actions into My Wounds and they will be of value. All your actions, even the least, soaked in My Blood, will acquire by this alone an infinite merit and will please My Heart.
8. In offering My Wounds for the conversion of sinners, even though the sinners are not converted, you will have the same merit before God as if they were.
9. When you have some trouble, something to suffer, quickly place it in My Wounds, and the pain will be alleviated.
10. This aspiration must often be repeated near the sick: "My Jesus, pardon and mercy through the merits of Thy Holy Wounds!" This prayer will solace soul and body.
11. A sinner who will say the following prayer will obtain conversion: "Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ to heal those of our souls."
12. There will be no death for the soul that expires in My Holy Wounds; they give true life.
13. This chaplet is a counterpoise to My justice; it restrains My vengeance.
14. Those who pray with humility and who meditate on My Passion, will one day participate in the glory of My Divine Wounds.
15. The more you will have contemplated My painful Wounds on this earth, the higher will be your contemplation of them glorious in Heaven.
16. The soul who during life has honored the Wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ and has offered them to the Eternal Father for the Souls in Purgatory, will be accompanied at the moment of death by the Holy Virgin and the Angels; and Our Lord on the Cross, all brilliant in glory, will receive her and crown her.
17. The invocations of the Holy Wounds will obtain an incessant victory for the Church.

THE PRAYER

On the crucifix and first three beads:

O JESUS, Divine Redeemer, be merciful to us and to the whole world. Amen.
STRONG God, holy God, immortal God, have mercy on us and on the whole world. Amen.
GRACE and mercy, O my Jesus, during present dangers; cover us with Thy Precious Blood. Amen.

ETERNAL Father, grant us mercy through the Blood of Jesus Christ, Thine only Son; grant us mercy, we beseech Thee. Amen, Amen, Amen.

The following prayers, composed by Our Lord, are to be said using the Rosary beads.

Every decade is said in honor of the 5 wounds of Christ incurred during the crucifixion (Wounds on the left and right food, wound on the left and right wrist / palm and the wound on the Holy Shoulder).

On the large [middle] beads:
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ.
To heal the wounds of our souls.

On the small [decade] beads:
My Jesus, pardon and mercy.
Through the merits of Thy Holy Wounds.

Conclude by saying:
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ.
To heal the wounds of our souls. (Three Times)

HISTORY: This devotion to the Holy Wounds and the Promises were revealed by Our Lord to Sr. Mary Martha Chambon (1841-1907), of the Monastery of the Visitation of Chambery. The cause for her beatification was introduced in 1937.

It is customary to honor the Five Wounds of Our Lord on the five decades.

Optional Conclusion Prayer :
(Prayer to the Shoulder Wounds of Christ)

O Loving Jesus, Meek Lamb of God, I, a miserable sinner, salute and worship the most Sacred Wound of Thy Shoulder on which Thou didst bear Thy heavy Cross, which so tore Thy Flesh and laid bare Thy Bones as to inflict on Thee an anguish greater than any other wound of Thy Most Blessed Body. I adore Thee, O Jesus most sorrowful; I praise and glorify Thee and give Thee thanks for this most sacred and painful Wound, beseeching Thee by that exceeding pain and by the crushing burden of Thy heavy Cross, to be merciful to me, a sinner, to forgive me all my mortal and venial sins and to lead me on towards Heaven along the Way of Thy Cross. Amen."

It is related in the annals of Clairvaux that St. Bernard asked our Lord which was His greatest unrecorded suffering, and Our Lord answered: "I had on My Shoulder, while I bore My Cross on the Way of Sorrows, a grievous Wound, which was more painful than the others, and which is not recorded by men. Honor this wound with thy devotion, and I will grant thee whatsoever thou dost ask through its virtue and merit. And in regard to all those who shall venerate this Wound, I will remit to them all their venial sins, and will no longer remember their mortal sins."

    Does anyone know of any specifxic piece of literature detailing the Holy Wounds devotion. Theree is a reference to such in a biography of St. Andre Besset of Montreal but what the title of the book was I don't know. Given that it would have been in Frfench I don't know if it was even translated.

    On my group Honoring Fridays and the Passion of Jesus, I am daily posting ecclesiastically approved revelations to a Carnelite nun. They're very awesome and really help you gain fervor for this devotion and for Our Lords Passion and Gods love for us

    Re. question from Daniel Patrick: the Holy Wounds would be all the wounds of Jesus, shoulder heart, wrists, back, etc. I also include the wounds He suffered emotionally when I use this prayer. Incidentally, I have been using it when I make the stations of the cross and at th eelevation of the precious blood during mass for the benefit of the holy souls.

    Now I'm confused. Which are the Holy Wounds?
    The wounded shoulder or the pierced Heart?

    I have to work a crazy hectic work schedule today and won't have the time--- could any of you, who does have time today perhaps, please offer a rosary Of the Holy Wounds for the repose of the soul of Auxiliary Bishop AGUSTIN ROMAN, of Miami Florida, 83, who died suddenly of a heart attack last night? He was a wonderful, good, gentle bishop, loyal, devout and kind.
    Thank you so much for doing so, any of you who can. He really deserves the prayer-help.

    It should read

    Every decade is said in honor of the 5 wounds of Christ incurred during the crucifixion (Wounds on the left and right foot, wound on the left and right hand and the wound on the pierced side).

    Jesus, thank you for your sacrfice. We owe everything to you.

    For the Holy Souls in purgatory.
    And for protection from my enemies, visibile and invisible.

    And for all the intentions I am praying for during this period of Novena to the Divine Mercy.

    My Sweet Jesus, pardon and mercy through the merits of thy Holy Wounds.
