Prayer to the Sacred Heart Of Jesus

Prayer to the Sacred Heart

†Based on the Promises Made to St. Margaret Mary†

Sacred Heart of Jesus, behold us kneeling before Thee to adore thee, to praise Thee, to thank Thee, to make reparation for our past faults and to give ourselves up to Thy love. Mindful of Thy divine promises, we presume to say with complete confidence:

Heart of Jesus, give us all the graces necessary for our state in life. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, establish peace in our homes. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, bless the homes where Thy picture is exposed and honored. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, ease our burdens and console us in our sorrows. Lord, Thou hast promised it. Heart of Jesus, be our assured refuge in life and more especially at the hour of death. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, shower down abundant blessings on all our undertakings. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, may sinners find in Thy Heart an infinite ocean of mercy. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, make tepid souls fervent. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, cause fervent souls to advance rapidly to great holiness. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, give to those working for the salvation of souls, the power of touching the most hardened hearts. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, grant to all those who shall communicate on the first Friday nine months consecutively, the grace of final perseverance and the Sacraments at death. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, may Thy Kingdom come despite Satan and the efforts of Thy enemies. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

Heart of Jesus, write in Thy Heart, never to be effaced from It, the names of those who promote this devotion. Lord, Thou hast promised it.

LET US PRAY:

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, we place all our trust in Thee, fearing all in our weakness, hoping all things in Thy goodness; be thou alone our love; the protector of our lives, the stay of our weakness, the strengthener in our inconstancy, the repairer of all our faults, the assurance of our salvation and our refuge at the hour of death. Amen

Consecration of the Family to the Sacred Heart of Jesus


Here is a beautiful Prayer of “Consecration of the Family to the Sacred Heart of Jesus”. It is good to include this Prayer as part of your Daily Family Prayer.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, you have revealed your desire to reign in every Christian family. Today, we come to ask that you take complete possession of our home. We greatly desire that through sincere fidelity to you, our home becomes fragrant with love, peace and joy.

Keep far from us all that can turn us away from You. Drain off feelings of strife; replace our bitterness with forgiveness; do not allow resentments and hurts to dictate what we rule or say. May the flame of sincere and understanding love burn brighter each day through our frequent participation of the Eucharist and the habit of daily family prayer.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, preside over all our gatherings and events; be with us in all our joys and sorrows. If any of us should stray away from you and from us, may your merciful heart bring him or her back to obedience to You and to union with us. May each member of our family be a committed Christian, faithful to the way of life you have taught by word and example.

And, at the end, when death comes to take any one of us away, may we accept it with submission and with joyful hope in the resurrection and the final reunion of our family in heaven, where your own hand will wipe away every tear from our eyes.

Mary, Mother of Jesus, be the mother of this family. St. Joseph, take care of each member of this family as you looked after the Holy Family of Nazareth.

May the grace and blessing of the Sacred Heart of Jesus be on us; the peace of the Sacred Heart envelope us; the merits of the Sacred Heart plead for us; the love of the Sacred Heart strengthen us; the zeal of the Sacred Heart animate us; the virtues of the Sacred Heart shine forth in our words and deeds; and may the beatific vision of the Sacred heart be our eternal joy.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, be the King of our home. In our home, be glorified today and forever. 

Amen. 

Prayer To The Sacred Heart of Jesus

 O, Sacred Heart of Jesus,

filled with Infinite Love,

broken by our ingratitude,

and pierced by our sins,

yet loving us still,

accept the consecration we make to Thee

of all that we are and all that we have.

Take every faculty of our souls and bodies,

only day by day draw us nearer and nearer to Thy Sacred Heart,

and there, as we shall hear the lesson,

teach us Thy Holy Way.

Amen.
