Saint Bridget Prayers for 12 Years

  • A friend of mine from Church gave me these prayers and I found them on the internet. They are supposed to be prayers given to St. Bridget of Sweden by Our Lord. You are supposed to say these prayers every day for 12 years and if you do, you will receive these promises.

    These are the promises:

    1)  The soul who prays them suffers no purgatory.
    2)  The soul who prays them will be accepted among the Martyrs as though he had spilled his blood for his faith.
    3)  The soul who prays them can choose three others whom Jesus will then keep in a state of grace sufficient to become holy.
    4)  No-one in the four successive generations of the soul who prays them will be lost.
    5)  The soul who prays them will be made conscious of his death one month in advance.
        If the suppliant should die before the allotted span, God the Father will accept them as having been prayed in their entirety, as the genuine intention was there.  If a day or a few days are missed for a valid reason, they can be made up later.


    These are the prayers:

     O Jesus, I now wish to pray the Lord’s Prayer seven times in unity with the love with which Thou sanctified this prayer in Thy Heart.  Take it from my lips into Thy Divine Heart.  Improve and complete it until it brings as much honour and joy to the Blessed Trinity as Thou granted it on Earth with this prayer.  May these pour upon Thy Holy Humanity in glorification to Thy painful Wounds and the Precious Blood Thou spilled from them.

    1) The Circuмcision

        Our Father.  Hail Mary.
        Eternal Father, through Mary’s unblemished hands and the Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer to Thee the first wounds, the first pains and the first bƖσσdshɛd, as atonement for my & all of humanity’s sins of youth, as protection against the first mortal sin, especially among my relatives.

    2) The Suffering on the Mount of Olives

        Our Father.  Hail Mary.
        Eternal Father, through Mary’s unblemished hands and the Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer to Thee the terrifying suffering of the Heart of Jesus on the Mount of Olives, and every drop of His Sweat of Blood, as atonement for my and all of humanity’s sins of the heart, as protection against such sins, and for the spreading of Divine and Brotherly Love.

    3) The Scourging

        Our Father.  Hail Mary.
        Eternal Father, through Mary’s unblemished hands and the Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer to Thee the many thousands of Wounds, the gruesome Pains and the Precious Blood of the Scourging, as atonement for my and  all of humanity’s sins of the Flesh, as protection against such sins and the preservation of innocence, especially among my relatives.

    4) The Crowning with Thorns

        Our Father.  Hail Mary.
        Eternal Father, through Mary’s unblemished hands and the Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer to Thee the Wounds, the Pains and the Precious Blood of the Holy Head of Jesus from the Crowning with Thorns, as atonement for my and  all of humanity’s sins of the spirit, as protection against such sins and for the spreading of the Kingdom  of Christ here on Earth.

    5) The Carrying of the Cross

        Our Father.  Hail Mary.
        Eternal Father, through Mary’s unblemished hands and the Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer to Thee the Sufferings on the Way of the Cross, especially the Holy Wound on His Shoulder and its precious Blood, as atonement for my and all of humanity’s rebellion against the Cross, every grumbling against Thy Holy Providence, and all other sins of  the tongue, as protection against such sins and for true love of the Cross.

    6) The Crucifixion of Jesus

        Our Father.  Hail Mary.
        Eternal Father, through Mary’s unblemished hands and the Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer to Thee Thy Son on the Cross, His nailing and lifting on high,  the Wounds on His Hands and Feet, and the three streams of His Precious Blood that poured forth for us from these, the extreme tortures of His Body and Soul, His precious death and its unbloody renewal in all Holy Masses on Earth, as atonement for all wounds against vows and regulations  within Religious Orders, as reparation for my and all the world’s sins, for the sick and dying, for all holy priests and laymen, for the intentions of the  Holy Father toward the restoration of Christian families, for the strengthening of Faith, for our country, for unity among all nations in Christ and His Church, and also for the Diaspora.

    7) The Piercing of Jesus’ Side

        Our Father.  Hail Mary.
        Eternal Father, accept as worthy for the needs of Holy Church, and as atonement for the sins of all Mankind, the precious Blood and Water which poured forth from the Wound of the Divine Heart of Jesus.  Be gracious and merciful towards us.  Blood  of Christ, the last precious content of His Holy Heart, wash me of all my and other’s guilt of sin!  Water from the Side of Christ, wash me clean of all punishments for sin and extinguish the flames of Purgatory for me and for all the Poor Souls.  Amen.

    The paper the prayer is written on says that this devotion was approved by the Church and by Pope Clement XII and Pope Innocent X. Do you know anything about these prayers and these promises? Is this really approved by the Church or is this a dubious devotion? It sounds dubious to me.

    R.I.P.
    Please pray for the repose of my soul.
