Reasons for devotion to the Holy Wounds explained by Jesus himself

In entrusting this mission to Sister Maria Marta, the God of Calvary was pleased to reveal to his ecstatic soul the innumerable reasons to invoke the Divine Wounds, as well as the benefits of this devotion, every day, at every moment to incite her to make her ardent apostle, He discovers to her the priceless treasures of these sources of life: “No soul, except my holy Mother, has had the grace like you to contemplate my holy wounds day and night. My daughter, do you recognize the treasure of the world? The world does not want to recognize it. I want you to see it, to better understand what I did by coming to suffer for you.

My daughter, every time you offer my Father the merits of my divine wounds, you gain immense luck. Be similar to the one who will encounter a great treasure in the earth, however, since you cannot preserve this fortune, God returns to take it and so my divine Mother, to return it at the moment of death and apply its merits to the souls who need it, therefore you must assert the wealth of my holy wounds. You just have to stay poor, because your Father is very rich!

Your wealth? ... It is my holy Passion! It is necessary to come with faith and confidence, to draw constantly from the treasure of my Passion and from the holes of my wounds! This treasure belongs to you! Everything is there, everything, except hell!

One of my creatures has betrayed me and sold my blood, but you can very easily redeem it drop by drop ... a single drop is enough to purify the earth and you don't think it, you don't know its price! The executioners did well to pass through my side, my hands and my feet, so they opened sources from which the waters of mercy gush eternally. Only sin was the cause you must detest.

My Father takes pleasure in offering my sacred wounds and the pains of my divine Mother: offering them means offering his glory, offering heaven to heaven.

With this you have to pay for all the debtors! By offering the merit of my holy wounds to my Father, you satisfy for all the sins of men. "

Jesus urges her, and with her too, to access this treasure. "You must entrust everything to my holy wounds and work, for their merits, for the salvation of souls".

He asks that we do it humbly.

“When my holy wounds inflicted me, men believed that they would disappear.

But no: they will be eternal and eternally seen by all creatures. I tell you this because you don't look at them out of habit, but I worship them with great humility. Your life is not of this world: remove the holy wounds and you will be earthly ... you are too material to understand the full extent of the graces you receive for their merits. Not even the priests contemplate the crucifix enough. I want you to honor me whole.

The harvest is great, abundant: it is necessary to humble yourself, to immerse yourself in your nothingness to gather souls, without looking at what you have already done. You must not be afraid to show my Wounds to souls ... the path of my Wounds is so simple and so easy to go to heaven! ".

He does not ask us to do it with the heart of the Seraphim. Pointing to a group of angelic spirits, around the altar during the Holy Mass, He said to Sister Maria Marta: “They contemplate the beauty, the holiness of God ... they admire, they adore ... you cannot imitate them. As for you it is necessary above all to contemplate the sufferings of Jesus in order to conform to him, to approach my wounds with very warm, very ardent hearts and to raise with great fervor the aspirations to obtain the graces of the return you solicit ".

He asks us to do it with ardent faith: “They (the wounds) remain completely fresh and it is necessary to offer them as for the first time. In the contemplation of my wounds everything is found, for oneself and for others. I'll show you why you enter them. "

He asks us to do it confidently: “You must not worry about the things of the earth: you will see, my daughter, in eternity what you will have gained with my wounds.

The wounds of my sacred feet are an ocean. Lead all my creatures here: those openings are large enough to accommodate them all. "

He asks us to do it in a spirit of apostolate and without ever getting tired: "It is necessary to pray a lot for my holy wounds to spread throughout the world" (At that moment, before the eyes of the seer, five luminous rays rose from the wounds of Jesus, five rays of glory that surrounded the globe).

“My holy wounds support the world. We must ask for firmness in the love of my wounds, because they are the source of all graces. You must invoke them often, bring your neighbor to them, talk about them and return to them frequently to impress their devotion on souls. It will take a long time to establish this devotion: therefore work courageously.

All the words spoken because of my holy wounds provide me with an unspeakable pleasure ... I count them all.

My daughter, you must compel those who do not want to come to enter my wounds ".

One day when Sister Maria Marta had a burning thirst, her good Master said to her: “My daughter, come to me and I will give you water that will quench your thirst. In the Crucifix you have everything, you have to satisfy your thirst and that all souls. You keep everything in my wounds, do concrete works not for enjoyment, but for suffering. Be a worker who works in the field of the Lord: with my Wounds you will earn a lot and effortlessly. Offer me your actions and those of your sisters, united with my holy wounds: nothing can make them more meritorious and more pleasing to my eyes. In them you will find incomprehensible riches ”.

It should be noted at this point that in the manifestations and confidences we finish talking about, the divine Savior does not always present himself to Sister Maria Marta with all her adorable wounds together: sometimes she shows only one, separate from the others. So it happened one day, after this ardent invitation: "You must apply yourself to heal my wounds, contemplating my wounds".

He discovers her right foot, saying: "How much you must venerate this Plague and hide in it like the dove".

Another time he shows her his left hand: "My daughter, take from my left hand my merits for souls so that they can stay on my right for all eternity ... Religious souls will be on my right to judge the world , but first I will ask them for the souls they had to save. "
