PROMISES
The Promises reflect the generosity of God for those who practise and propagate this devotion.
This devotion to the Holy Wounds and the following promises were revealed by Our Lord to Sr Mary Martha Chambon, 1841-1907, of the Monastery of the Visitation of Chambery. The cause for her beatification was introduced in 1937
- Every word of the Chaplet of Mercy you pronounce, I allow a drop of My Blood to fall upon the soul of a sinner.
- Each time that you offer to My Father the merits of My Divine Wounds, you win an immense fortune.
- Souls that will have contemplated and honoured My crown of thorns on earth, will be My crown of glory in Heaven.
- I will grant all that is asked of Me through the invocation of My Holy Wounds. You. Will obtain everything, because it is through the merit of My Blood, which is of infinite price. With My Wounds and My Divine Heart, everything can be obtained.
- From My Wounds proceed fruits of sanctity. As gold purified in the crucible becomes more beautiful, so you must put your soul and those of your companions into My sacred Wounds; there they will become perfected as gold in the furnace. You can always purify yourself in My Wounds.
- My Wounds will repair yours. My Wounds will cover all your faults. Those who honour them will have a true knowledge of Jesus Christ. In meditation on them, you will always find a new love. My Wounds will cover all your sins.
- Offer Me your actions united to My Wounds and they will be of value. All your actions, even the least, soaked in My Blood, will acquire incomprehensible riches, an infinite merit and will please My Heart.
- In offering My Wounds for the conversion of sinners, even though the sinners are not converted, you will have the same merit before God as if they were.
- When you have some sorrow, something to suffer, quickly place it in My Wounds, and the pain will be alleviated.
- This aspiration must often be repeated near the sick: “My Jesus, Pardon and Mercy through the merits of Your Holy Wounds!” This prayer will solace soul and body.
- The sinner who will say the following prayer: “Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Wounds of Our Lord Jesus Christ to heal the wounds of our souls”, shall obtain conversion”.
- There will be no death for the soul that expires in My Holy Wounds; they give true life. The way to My Holy Wounds is easy, so easy to reach Heaven.
- This chaplet is a counterpoise to My justice; it restrains My vengeance.
- The soul who pray with humility and meditate on My Passion, will one day share in the glory of My Divine Wounds. The souls will be crowned with resplendent beauty and glory.
- The more you will have contemplated My painful Wounds on this earth, the higher will be your contemplation of them glorious in Heaven.
- The soul who during life has honoured the Wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ and has offered them to the Eternal Father for the souls in Purgatory, will be accompanied at the moment of death by the Holy Virgin and the angels; and Our Lord on the Cross, all brilliant in glory, will receive her and crown her.
- The invocations of the Holy Wounds will obtain an incessant victory for the Church.
- The Holy Wounds are the“Treasure of Treasures”for the souls in purgatory.
