Jesus made 14 promises to those who pray the Chaplet. How often do you pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet? It is very powerful! The Divine Mercy Chaplet was presented to Saint Faustina in 1935 during a private revelation. Jesus asks that we meditate upon His Passion at 3:00 p.m. every day, and the Chaplet helps us to do this.
First Seven of the 14 Promises
Here are 14 promises Jesus made to those who pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet:
(1) "I promise that the soul who will venerate this image (of Divine Mercy) will not perish. I also promise victory over enemies already here on earth, especially at the hour of death. I Myself will defend it as My own glory." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 48)
(2) "The two rays denote Blood and Water... These two rays issued from the very depths of My tender mercy when My agonized Heart was opened by a lance on the Cross. These rays shield souls from the wrath of My Father... I desire that the first Sunday after Easter be the Feast of Mercy... whoever approaches the Fount of Life on this day will be granted complete remission of sins and punishment. Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 299-300)
(3) "I desire that the Feast of Mercy... be solemnly celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter... The soul who will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion (in a state of grace on this day) shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 699)
(4) "Whoever will recite it will receive great mercy at the hour of death." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 687)
(5) "Priests will recommend it to sinners as their last hope of salvation. Even if there were a sinner most hardened, if he were to recite this chaplet only once, he would receive grace from My infinite mercy... I desire to grant unimaginable graces to those souls who trust in My mercy." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 687)
(6) "The souls that say this chaplet will be embraced by My mercy during their lifetime and especially at the hour of their death." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 754)
(7) "Souls who spread the honor of My mercy... at the hour of death I will not be a Judge for them, but the Merciful Savior." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1075)
Second Seven of the 14 Promises
(8) "The prayer most pleasing to Me is prayer for the conversion for sinners. Know, my daughter, that this prayer is always heard and answered." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1397)
(9) "My mercy is greater than your sins and those of the entire world." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1485)
(10) "To priests who proclaim and extol My mercy, I will give wondrous power; I will anoint their words and touch the hearts of those to whom they will speak." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1521)
(11) "Through this chaplet, you will obtain everything, if what you ask for is compatible with My will." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1731)
(12) "When hardened sinners say the chaplet, I will fill their souls with peace, and the hour of their death will be a happy one." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1541)
(13) "When they say this chaplet in the presence of the dying, I will stand between My Father and the dying person, not as a just Judge but as a merciful Savior." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1541)
(14) "At three o’clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My Passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony... I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in virtue of My Passion." (Diary of Saint Faustina, 1320)
For the sake of His Sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world!
