The 13 promises of Jesus for his devotion so loved by God

“The crucifix is ​​the summary of everything a Christian should practice. The whole morality of the Gospel consists in carrying our cross, in renouncing ourselves, in crucifying our flesh ... and in sacrificing ourselves to God's will ... "The crucifix is" the most surprising and living expression of the entire teaching of the Gospel. ".

Even in heaven, says Father Grou, we will never fully understand "the greatness of this benefit that faith places before our eyes when we look at our crucifix". God "could not ... have given us a greater proof of his love". Such a "way of salvation could only have been conceived in the heart of a God who loved us infinitely".

The Lord in 1960 would make these promises to one of his humble servants:

1) Those who exhibit the Crucifix in their homes or jobs and decorate it with flowers will reap many blessings and rich fruit in their work and initiatives, together with immediate help and comfort in their problems and sufferings.

2) Those who look at the Crucifix even for a few minutes, when they are tempted or are in battle and effort, especially when they are tempted by anger, will immediately master themselves, temptation and sin.

3) Those who meditate every day, for 15 minutes, on My Agony on the Cross, will surely support their sufferings and their annoyances, first with patience later with joy.

4) Those who very often meditate on My wounds on the Cross, with deep sorrow for their sins and sins, will soon acquire a deep hatred for sin.

5) Those who often and at least twice a day will offer my three hours of Agony on the Cross to Heavenly Father for all the negligence, indifference and shortcomings in following good inspirations will shorten his punishment or be completely spared.

6) Those who willingly recite the Rosary of the Holy Wounds daily, with devotion and great confidence while meditating on My Agony on the Cross, will obtain the grace to fulfill their duties well and with their example they will induce others to do the same.

7) Those who will inspire others to honor the Crucifix, My most precious Blood and My Wounds and who will also make known My Rosary of the Wounds will soon receive an answer to all their prayers.

8) Those who do the Via Crucis daily for a certain period of time and offer it for the conversion of sinners can save an entire Parish.

9) Those who 3 consecutive times (not on the same day) visit an image of Me Crucified, honor it and offer Heavenly Father My Agony and Death, My most precious Blood and My Wounds for their sins will have a beautiful death and will die without agony and fear.

10) Those who every Friday, at three in the afternoon, meditate on My Passion and Death for 15 minutes, offering them together with My Precious Blood and My Holy Wounds for themselves and for the dying people of the week, will obtain a high level of love and perfection and they can be sure that the devil will not be able to cause them further spiritual and physical harm.
