Chaplet of the Divine Mercy

Merciful Jesus

Introduction

On the night of September 13-14, 1935, Sister Faustina Kowalska had a vision in which she saw the Angel of God’s wrath hurling lightning and thunder on the earth. Sister Faustina began to pray to God for the world, but she felt that her prayer was ineffective. At the same moment, she saw the Holy Trinity and was dazzled by His majesty and infinite holiness… She heard words within herself with which, with extraordinary strength, she began to beg and ask for divine mercy:

“Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Thy beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in reparation for my sins and those of the whole world. By His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on me and on the whole world”.

Prodigy, following this prayer, the Angel remained unable to execute the just punishment (Cf. Little Diary).

The next day, Sister Faustina entering the chapel, Jesus made this recommendation to her:

“Every time you enter the chapel, repeat immediately the prayer I taught you yesterday”.

Jesus said to her again:

“My daughter, incite the souls to say this chaplet which I gave you… Whoever will recite this chaplet will obtain the grace of My infinite mercy… Through this chaplet you will obtain everything, if what you ask is in conformity with My will.” (Cf. Little Diary)

Thus came into being the Chaplet of Divine Mercy.

The Prayers

(The following prayers are recited on an ordinary rosary)

At the beginning:

Our Father… Hail Mary… I believe in God…

On the large beads, once:

Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Thy Beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ,
– in reparation for my sins and those of the whole world.

On the small beads, 10 times:

Through His sorrowful Passion,
– have mercy on me and on the whole world.

At the end of each decade, recite 3 times:

Holy God, Almighty God, Eternal God,
– Have mercy on me and on the whole world.

To finish the chaplet, say 3 times:

Jesus, I trust in Thee!…

Extracts from messages given to Sister Faustina Kowalska

– To obtain God’s mercy, we must first recognize our misery, regret our many sins and believe in God’s infinite Love and Mercy. Moreover, we must exercise mercy towards our neighbor because God tells us in the Gospel: “If you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you your sins.” (S. Matth. 6:14) And Jesus makes us ask, “Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.” (S. Matth. 6:12)

“Our Lord,” writes Sister Faustina, “does not wish to chastise humanity; He desires to heal it by holding it to His merciful Heart.”

“The only salvation is to throw oneself into the arms of the merciful God, where humanity will find life, happiness, lasting peace.”

“Mankind will not find peace until it turns with confidence to the Mercy of God.”

“The greatest sinners, before all other mortals, are entitled to the infinite treasures of My Mercy. These are My delights, the souls who appeal to My Mercy. I give them graces greater than those they ask of Me. I cannot punish the greatest sinner, if he implores My Mercy. I justify him in the unfathomable abyss of this Mercy.”

“Before I come as Judge, I first open wide the door of My Mercy. He who does not want to pass through the door of My Mercy, will have to pass through that of Justice.”

“Write: The greater the misery, the greater the right to My Mercy. Call all souls to trust in the incredible abyss of My Mercy, for I desire to save them all.”

“The fountain of My Mercy was opened wide by the lance when I was on the Cross. It was for all souls, I did not exclude anyone.”

“I will grant many great graces to souls who say the chaplet of My Mercy.”

“Repeat unceasingly this chaplet that I have taught you. The one who will say it often will be protected by the Divine Mercy during his life and especially at the time of his death.”

“I want to grant inconceivable graces to souls who will trust in My Mercy.”

“I desire great confidence on the part of My creatures…. Let the weak soul not fear to approach, even if it had as many sins as there are grains of sand on the earth. All will be washed away in the abyss of My Mercy.”

“My daughter, the flames of My Mercy consume Me. I desire to pour them into human hearts. Oh, what pain I feel when they do not want to receive them!”

“My daughter, tell them that I am Love and Mercy incarnate.”

“Blessed is the soul that has been immersed all its life in the torrent of My Mercy.”

“Tell the aching humanity that it should press itself against My Heart full of Mercy and I will fill it with peace.”

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 Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; He descended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty, from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Church of Jesus Christ, the Communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

Preparatory Prayer

O Jesus! We are going to walk with You on the road to Calvary which was so painful for You. Make us understand the greatness of Your sufferings, touch our hearts with tender compassion at the sight of Your torments, in order to increase in us the regret of our faults and the love we wish to have for You.
Deign to apply to all of us the infinite merits of Your Passion, and in memory of Your sorrows, show mercy to the souls in Purgatory, especially to those who are most abandoned.
O Divine Mary, who first taught us to make the Way of the Cross, obtain for us the grace to follow Jesus with the sentiments Your Heart was filled with as You accompanied Him on the road to Calvary. Grant that we may weep with You, and that we may love Your divine Son as You do. We ask this in the name of His adorable Heart. Amen.
