Prayer For The Sacred Heart Of Jesus

The “Prayer ⁤for the Sacred Heart of Jesus” is a devotional prayer in the Catholic tradition ⁢that seeks to honor and invoke the love and compassion of ⁤Jesus Christ. ⁤The prayer is centered around the imagery and symbolism of the⁣ Sacred Heart,⁤ which represents Jesus’ immense and unconditional⁤ love for humanity.

At⁢ its core, the prayer is a heartfelt plea to⁢ Jesus, acknowledging his ultimate ⁢sacrifice on the cross ⁤and surrendering⁤ one’s own troubles and‍ burdens to ‍his sacred heart. It is a way of seeking solace and comfort in times of​ distress or seeking‌ guidance ‍and strength in‍ one’s spiritual journey.

Daily Devotion to the Sacred Heart

In order to devote oneself to the Sacred Heart, we must first acknowledge Him as Creator and Redeemer, as well as King of Kings, and acknowledge that He has full rights over us. Additionally, we must repent and make a commitment to serve Him.

We are making amends for the indifference and ingratitude with which He is treated, as well as for the fact that humanity has abandoned Him.

These general goals of consecration and reparation can be accomplished through the use of devotions that are sanctioned by the Church. These devotions are highly particular.

The devotions attached to these promises are:


1.Receiving Communion frequently
2.First Fridays: going to Confession and receiving the Eucharist on the first Friday of each month for nine consecutive months. Many parishes will offer public First Friday devotions; if they do, you must perform First Fridays publicly. If it isn’t so offered in your parish, you can do this privately, going to Confession, receiving the Eucharist, and offering your prayers for the intention of the Holy Father.
3.Holy Hour: Eucharistic Adoration for one hour on Thursdays. (“Could you not watch one hour with me?”) Holy Hour can be made alone or as part of a group with formal prayers.
4.Celebrating of the Feast of the Sacred Heart

Feast of the Sacred Heart

The Friday that follows the Second Sunday after Pentecost is the Feast of the Sacred Heart which brings to mind all the attributes of His Divine Heart mentioned above. Many Catholics prepare for this Feast by beginning a Novena to the Sacred Heart on the Feast of Corpus Christi, which is the Thursday of the week before. On the Feast of the Sacred Heart itself, we can gain a plenary indulgence by making an Act of Reparation to the Sacred Heart.

Lord Jesus, I pray that my heart will never stop searching for you, for you are the center of my heart, the source of my love, and the source of my pleasure.

The Church of Pop’s Caroline Perkins
In honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Please Remember:

It is important to keep in mind, Jesus, that no one who has ever sought the assistance of Your Sacred Heart, pleaded for its assistance, or pleaded for mercy has ever been abandoned. Having been filled and animated by this same confidence, O holy Heart, Ruler of all hearts, I fly to You, and because I am oppressed by the weight of my crimes, I prostrate myself before You. I pray that you will not look down on your unworthy child, but rather that you will allow me to enter inside Your Sacred Heart. Be with me now and at all times, but especially in the hour of my death, provide me with support in all of my battles, and be with me at all times. Jesus, you are very nice! Please, Jesus, be kind! Those who love Jesus! Thank you.
