Fifteen rosary promises

Fifteen rosary promises

Roman Catholic tradition on the power of the rosary alleges that through Saint Dominic and Blessed Alan de Rupe the Blessed Virgin Mary made fifteen specific promises to Christians who pray the rosary [Dominican Fathers on the Rosary http://www.rosary-center.org/nconobl.htm] .The fifteen promises range from protection from misfortune to meriting a high degree of glory in heaven [Holyrosary.org http://www.theholyrosary.org/power.html] . Patrick Cardinal Hayes of New York provided his imprimatur to this effect [Rosary promises http://www.catholic.org/clife/mary/promises.php] .

The 15 promises::1. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the rosary, shall receive signal graces.

:2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the rosary.

:3. The rosary shall be a powerful armor against hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.

:4. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the heart of men from the love of the world and its vanities, and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify them- selves by this means.

:5. The soul which recommend itself to me by the recitation of the rosary, shall not perish.

:6. Whoever shall recite the rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall remain in the grace of God, and become worthy of eternal life.

:7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.

:8. Those who are faithful to recite the rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise.

:9. I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted to the rosary.

:10. The faithful children of the rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in heaven.

:11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the rosary.

:12. All those who propagate the holy rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.

:13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the rosary shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of death.

:14. All who recite the rosary are my son, and brothers of my only son Jesus Christ

:15. Devotion of my rosary is a great sign of predestination.
