The devotion to the Medal of the Child Jesus and the prayer dictated by Mary

THE MEDAL of the BABY JESUS ​​of PRAGUE

It is a "Malta" cross of common size, engraved with the image of the Infant Jesus of Prague, and is blessed. It is very effective against the pitfalls of the devil who tries to harm both souls and bodies.

It draws its effectiveness from the image of the Child Jesus and from the cross. Some gospel words are engraved on it, almost all pronounced by the Divine Master. The initials are read around the figure of the Child Jesus: "VRS" Vade retro, Satan (Vattene, Satan); "RSE" Rex sum ego (I am king); "ART" Adveniat regnum tuum (Thy kingdom come).

But the most effective invocation to keep the devil away and prevent him from doing harm is certainly the name "Jesus".

Other words present are: Verbum caro factum est (And the Word became flesh), which are engraved on the back of the medal, with those around the monogram of Christ that say: Vincit, Regnat, Imperat, nos ab omni malo defendat (Vince , Reigns, Domina, defends us from all evil).

The safeguard medal is sent to those who request it from the sanctuary.

PRAYER TO BABY JESUS ​​of PRAGUE

revealed by Mary Most Holy to VP Cyril of the Discalced Carmelite Mother of God and first apostle of devotion to the Holy Child of Prague.

O Baby Jesus, I appeal to you, and I pray that through the intercession of your Holy Mother, you will want to assist me in my need (it can be explained), because I firmly believe that your Divinity can help me. I hope so confidently to obtain your holy grace. I love you with all my heart and with all the strength of my soul; I sincerely repent of my sins, and I beg you, good Jesus, to give me the strength to triumph over them. I propose not to offend you anymore, and to you I offer myself willing to suffer everything, instead of giving you the slightest disgust. From now on I want to serve you with all fidelity, and, for your sake, Divine Child, I will love my neighbor as myself. Almighty baby, Lord Jesus, I again beg you, assist me in this circumstance ... Give me the grace to possess you eternally with Mary and Joseph, and to adore you with the holy Angels in the Court of Heaven. So be it.
