#The Rosary#
The Rosary is one of the most powerful prayers to defend ourselves against the devil. An exorcist by the name of Father Gabriele Amorth once heard from the devil, “Each Ave Maria of the Rosary is a blow to my face. If Christians knew the power of the Rosary, it would be my end.” This happened during an exorcism. The Rosary is a weapon for all young and old to defend our souls against the evils of the world. This is why many Saints and Blesseds have had devotions to Our Lady and the rosary. Our Lady calls us all, whether we know it or not, to pray the Rosary every day. The Rosary is powerful enough that Our Lady gave us these XV promises to help us better understand the extent of the Rosary’s power. The fifteen promises of the rosary are the weapon that Mary gave us to defend ourselves against the evils of the world. This goes to show how powerful the rosary is and how stunningly it works for fending off the evils of the world. I know if the world prayed a rosary a day for a single intention, then by the grace of God it would be answered in the way God deems best.
I. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall receive signal graces.
[A signal grace will be a simple sign in our daily life that answers a question made in prayer or points toward God.]
II. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
III. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
IV. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.
V. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary shall not perish.
[Anyone who faithfully prays the Rosary and asks for Mary’s intercession will not go to hell.]
VI. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered and never overwhelmed by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall grow in grace and become worthy of eternal life. (An unprovided death means dying while not in a state of grace (meaning, to die with unconfessed mortal sin in the soul)).
VII. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.
VIII. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have, during their life and at their death, the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise.
IX. I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.
X. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in heaven.
XI. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.
XII. All those who propagate the holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.
XIII. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of death.
XIV. All who recite the Rosary are my sons and daughters, brothers and sisters of my only son Jesus Christ.
XV. Devotion of my Rosary is a great sign of predestination. (Meaning, devotion to the Rosary is a good indication that the devotee is on the path to Heaven.)
The RRW is committed to praying this amazing and powerful prayer. And in time we promise you that within two weeks of praying the rosary, you will see progress. But be mindful, because although you are growing in faith and walking the path towards heaven, the devil will not want that. Remember, each time you say a Hail Mary, the devil feels like he is being punched. So he will attack you back and try to get you back in a state of hatred and lies. You will be tempted, and you must fight back. We will be fighting alongside you and everyone else who joins us in the attempt to beat back the devil from using his tools of temptation against us.
Prayers of the Rosary
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God,
the Father almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died and was buried;
he descended into hell;
on the third day he rose again from the dead;
he ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty;
from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting.
Amen.
The Our Father
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass
against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen
The Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you;
blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
The Glory Be
Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.
The Hail Holy Queen
Hail, holy Queen, mother of mercy,
our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you we cry, poor banished children of Eve;
to you we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us;
and after this, our exile,
show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
