Day 7 — Souls that venerate and glorify My mercy
Intention of the Day
"Today, bring to Me the souls that especially venerate and glorify My mercy, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls were the ones that most sorrowed over My Passion and entered most deeply into My spirit. They are a living reflection of My compassionate Heart. These souls will shine with a special brightness in the life to come. Not one of them will go to the fire of hell. I shall defend each one in a special way at the hour of death."
(Diary, 1222)
Prayer to Most Merciful Jesus
Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly venerate and extol the greatness of Your mercy. These souls are mighty with the power of God Himself; in the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward confident of Your mercy, and united to You, they carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will embrace them at the hour of death.
Prayer to the Eternal Father
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon those souls who glorify and venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your unfathomable mercy, and who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their hands are full of works of mercy and their hearts, overflowing with joy, sing to You, O Most High, a canticle of mercy. I beg You, O God, show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in You. May the promise of Jesus be fulfilled in them, who said: "The souls that venerate this unfathomable mercy of Mine, I Myself will defend as My glory during their lives, and especially at the hour of death."
Chaplet of Divine Mercy
(Prayed on ordinary rosary beads):
— Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
— For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. (ten times on each decade)
— Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world. (three times at the end)
