ACT OF CONSECRATION TO MOTHER MARY

written by St. Maximilian Kolbe

O Immaculata, Queen of Heaven and earth, refuge of sinners and our most loving Mother, God has willed to entrust the entire order of mercy to you. I, (name), a repentant sinner, cast myself at your feet humbly imploring you to take me with all that I am and have, wholly to yourself as your possession and property. Please make of me, of all my powers of soul and body, of my whole life, death and eternity, whatever most pleases you.

If it pleases you, use all that I am and have without reserve, wholly to accomplish what was said of you: “She will crush your head,” and, “You alone have destroyed all heresies in the world.” Let me be a fit instrument in your immaculate and merciful hands for introducing and increasing your glory to the maximum in all the many strayed and indifferent souls, and thus help extend as far as possible the blessed kingdom of the most Sacred Heart of Jesus. For wherever you enter, you obtain the grace of conversion and growth in holiness, since it is through your hands that all graces come to us from the most Sacred Heart of Jesus.

V. Allow me to praise you, O sacred Virgin.

R. Give me strength against your enemies.

O Mary, conceived without sin,

pray for us who have recourse to you.

O Jesus, King of Love, O Mary, Mother of Mercy

I put my trust in your loving mercy.

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.

Glorious St Joseph, foster father of our lord Jesus, pray for us.

Holy Angels and Archangels, defend and keep us. Amen

MARY WILL CRUSH SATAN

“And the Lord God said to the serpent… I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shall lie in wait for her heel” (Genesis 3:13-15).

God starts by addressing Satan, telling him he is going to eat dirt for the rest of his days. Then he reveals something that makes Satan cringe in horror—HIS ULTIMATE DEFEAT WILL COME AT THE HANDS OF A WOMAN.

Jesus is going to crush Satan through Mary.

Satan hates the Blessed Virgin Mary. In fact, he has been doing everything in his power to discourage devotion to her and instill hatred for her for two millennia. Have you ever noticed that it is Marian dogmas and devotions that stir the strongest reactions in those who reject the Church? Even some good Catholics are embarrassed by devotion to our Lady, and they feel we should not be too extreme in our veneration of her.

“Mary, until the end of time, will always uncover the evil of the infernal serpent and of his infernal plots; she will make his diabolical counsels vanish and will free his loyal servants from his cruel clutches.

The power of Mary over all the demons will shine particularly in the end times, when Satan will strike at her heel, that is to say, on the humble slaves and poor children of Mary, who are called to battle against the gates of hell” (cf. ibid, no.54).

“In the end, My Immaculate Heart will triumph.” – The blessed Virgin Mary

Our hope, our trust, our confidence must be in MARY — for it is to Her that God has entrusted the peace of the world and triumph over the allied legions of Hell.

PRAY THE ROSARY DAILY AND TEACH IT TO OTHERS!

Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us. Amen.
