Five Holy Wounds Prayer

The Lord led me to this prayer from the book In Sinu Jesu, which is a wonderful book to use during Adoration. And there He explained what His five wounds represented, which you heard in the previous message. He also wanted me to share this prayer for all to use. To enter into the garden of your heart not only to meditate on His holy wounds, but adore them, nurse them, kiss them, and meditate on them, to bring healing to His aching heart.

So it begins:

Beginning Prayer

As I kneel before You on the cross, most loving Savior of my soul, my conscience reproaches me with having nailed You to that cross with these hands of mine, as often as I have fallen into mortal sin, wearying You with my monstrous ingratitude. My God, my chief and most perfect Good, worthy of all my love, for the many blessings You have ever bestowed upon me; I cannot now undo my misdeeds as I would most willingly; but I will loathe them, grieving greatly for having offended You who is Infinite Goodness! And now, kneeling at Your feet, I will try at least to console You, to give You thanks, to ask of You pardon and contrition; wherefore with heart and lips I say:

To the First Holy Wound: The Left Foot

Holy wound of the Left Foot of my Jesus! I adore You, I console You for the most bitter pain which You did suffer. I thank You for the love whereby You were wearied in overtaking me on the way to ruin, and did bleed amid the thorns and brambles of my sins. I offer to the Eternal Father the pain and love of Your most holy humanity, in atonement for my sins, all which I detest with sincere and bitter contrition.

To the Second Holy Wound: The Right Foot

Holy wound of the Right Foot of my Jesus! I adore You, I console You for the bitter pain which You did suffer. I thank You for that love which pierced You with such torture and shedding of blood in order to punish my wanderings and the guilty pleasures I have granted to my unbridled passions. I offer the Eternal Father all the pain and love of Your most holy humanity, and I pray unto You for grace to weep over my transgressions with burning tears, and to enable me to persevere in the good which I have begun, without ever swerving again from my obedience to the commandments of my God.

To the Third Holy Wound: The Left Hand

Holy wound of the Left Hand of my Jesus! I adore You, I console You for the bitter pain which You did suffer. I thank You for having, in Your love, spared me the scourges and eternal damnation which my sins had merited. I offer to the Eternal Father the pain and love of Your most holy humanity, and I pray You to teach me how to turn to good account my span of life, and bring forth in it worthy fruits of penance, and so disarm the justice of God, which I have provoked.

To the Fourth Holy Wound: The Right Hand

Holy wound of the Right Hand of my Jesus! I adore You, I console You for the bitter pain which You did suffer. I thank You for Your graces lavished on me with such love, in spite of all my most perverse obstinacy. I offer to the Eternal Father all the pain and love of Your most holy humanity, and I pray You to change my heart and its affections, and make me do all my actions in accordance with the will of God.

To the Fifth Holy Wound: The Sacred Side

Holy wound in the side of my Jesus! I adore You, I console You for the cruel insult You did suffer. I thank You, my Jesus, for the love which suffered Your side and heart to be pierced, that so the last drops of blood and water might issue forth, making my redemption to abound. I offer to the Eternal Father this outrage, and the love of You most holy Humanity, that my soul may enter once for all into that most loving Heart, eager and ready to receive the greatest sinners, and never more depart.

Closing Prayer

O Lord Jesus Christ, who at the sixth hour of the day did, for the redemption of the world, mount the gibbet of the cross, and shed Your Precious Blood for the remission of sins; we humbly beseech You to grant us, after our deaths, a joyful entrance into the gates of Paradise.

Grant, we beseech You, O Lord Jesus Christ, that now, and at the hour of our death, blessed Mary ever Virgin, Your Mother, may intercede for us, through whose most holy soul the sword passed in the hour of Your Passion. Through You, Jesus Christ, Savior of the world, who with the Father and the Holy Spirit live and reign for ever and ever. Amen.

From Jesus With Love

My Name Is Mary Elisha I started this blog 6 years ago on my journey walking with Jesus and never knew all that he had in store for me. It has been a journey of tears, trust and confidence in him. Knowing that He is my loving spouse and he wouldn't lead me astray however he has given many suprises along the way! lol Upon fully surrendering my life to Jesus, he has completely turn my world right side up. Filled me with his spirit and showed himself in supernatural ways. He has completely left me in awe leaving me with the thought.....(as most Holy Spirit filled followers of Christ also say) why didn't I surrender 15 years ago! lol. When I started this blog I was a 30 years old zealous for the Lord and desiring to make his love known because it tranformed my life. However, I didn't know the way and the road in which he would take me. It is the way of the cross, the way of holiness and the way of love. Living a life seperated from the world and compltely concecrated to him. I no longer belong to myself, but to him as he has led me to a life of hiddeness and deep intimacy I didn't know was so avalialble for all who would make their lives, their hearts his home. He has given me a new name, a renewed purpose and a heavenly family who is so very present and so real to me. Saints who cheer me on, give me council and pray for me everyday to ensure I do the Lords will and the greatest gift of all He has led me to his Mother! Who has always been My Mother just never knew it. I love Mother Mary, she is my heart, my friend and confidant and continues to prepare me to a worthy bride to her son, Jesus. It is she, who has handpicked me for this mission and to run the community "City of God: Sacred Heart Refuge" in Ghana, West Africa. This is her mission and her ministry as a gift to Jesus and I just get to be her handmaiden. Heartdwellers Ghana is an extention of Heartdwellers ministry by Mother Clare and Father Ezekiel from Still Small Voice Channel. Jesus has taught us about divine intimacy with him. As we dwell in his heart, He and the Father come to make their home within us. (John Where Jesus is all of heaven is as well because the kingom of God is within. So here may you come to get fresh manna from Jesus and any ther saints who may want to give us council, encouragment and exhortation that we may finish this race of faith and run to win the prize. To be a bride spotless, blameless adorened with purity, carying the fire of charity and zeal for our fathers glory. That we maybe ready for him when He comes back for us. Our Lord, Jesus Christ is amazing the intimate you become with him the more in awe he leaves you. I hope this blog draws you nearer to our Lord and you began to open the ears and the eyes of your heart to all that he has to say to you and show you. All of these messages are from Jesus with love...to you. May you be blessed by his words of life. God bless you!
