First
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me ALL MANKIND, ESPECIALLY ALL SINNERS, and
immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. In this way you will console Me
in the bitter grief into which the loss of souls plunges Me.
[Novena Prayers:] Most Merciful Jesus, whose very nature it is to have
compassion on us and to forgive us, do not look upon our sins but upon
our trust which we place in Your infinite goodness. Receive us all into
the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart, and never let us escape
from It. We beg this of You by Your love which unites You to the Father
and the Holy Spirit.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon all mankind and especially
upon poor sinners, all enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of
Jesus. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion show us Your mercy, that
we may praise the omnipotence of Your mercy for ever and ever.
Amen.

Second
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me THE SOULS OF PRIESTS AND RELIGIOUS, and
immerse them in My unfathomable mercy. It was they who gave Me strength
to endure My bitter Passion. Through them as through channels My mercy
flows out upon mankind.
[Novena Prayers:] Most Merciful Jesus, from whom comes all that is good,
increase Your grace in men and women consecrated to Your
service, that they may perform worthy works of mercy; and
that
all who see them may glorify the Father of Mercy who is in heaven.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the company of chosen ones
in Your vineyard–upon the souls of priests and religious; and
endow them with the strength of Your blessing. For the love of the
Heart of Your Son in which they are enfolded, impart to them Your power
and light, that they may be able to guide others in the way of
salvation and with one voice sing praise to Your boundless mercy for
ages without end.
Amen.

Third
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me ALL DEVOUT AND FAITHFUL SOULS, and immerse
them in the ocean of My mercy. These souls brought Me consolation on the
Way of the Cross. They were that drop of consolation in the midst of an
ocean of bitterness.
[Novena Prayers:] Most Merciful Jesus, from the treasury of Your mercy,
You impart Your graces in great abundance to each and all. Receive us
into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart and never let us escape
from It. We beg this grace of You by that most wonderous love for the
heavenly Father with which Your Heart burns so fiercely.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon faithful souls, as upon
the inheritance of Your Son. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion,
grant them Your blessing and surround them with Your constant
protection. Thus may they never fail in love or lose the treasure of
the holy faith, but rather, with all the hosts of Angels and Saints,
may they glorify Your boundless mercy for endless ages.
Amen.

Fourth
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN GOD AND THOSE
WHO DO NOT YET KNOW ME. I was thinking also of them during My bitter
Passion, and their future zeal comforted My Heart. Immerse them in the
ocean of My mercy.
[Novena Prayers:] Most compassionate Jesus, You are the Light of the
whole world. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart
the souls of those who do not believe in God and of those who as yet do
not know You. Let the rays of Your grace enlighten them that they, too,
together with us, may extol Your wonderful mercy; and do not let them
escape from the abode which is Your Most Compassionate Heart.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who do
not believe in You, and of those who as yet do not know You, but who
are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the
light of the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is
to love You. Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of Your
mercy for endless ages.
Amen.

Fifth
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me THE SOULS OF THOSE WHO HAVE SEPARATED
THEMSELVES FROM MY CHURCH, and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy.
During My bitter Passion they tore at My Body and Heart, that is, My
Church. As they return to unity with the Church, My wounds heal and in
this way they alleviate My Passion.
[Novena Prayers:] Most Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself, You do not refuse
light to those who seek it of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most
Compassionate Heart the souls of those who have separated themselves
from Your Church. Draw them by Your light into the unity of the Church,
and do not let them escape from the abode of Your Most Compassionate
Heart; but bring it about that they, too, come to glorify the
generosity of Your mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who
have separated themselves from Your Son’s Church, who have
squandered Your blessings and misused Your graces by obstinately
persisting in their errors. Do not look upon their errors, but upon the
love of Your own Son and upon His bitter Passion, which He underwent
for their sake, since they, too, are enclosed in His Most Compassionate
Heart. Bring it about that they also may glorify Your great mercy for
endless ages.
Amen.

Sixth
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me THE MEEK AND HUMBLE SOULS AND THE SOULS OF
LITTLE CHILDREN, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely
resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw
them as earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out
upon them whole torrents of grace. Only the humble soul is capable of
receiving My grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence.
[Novena Prayers:] Most Merciful Jesus, You yourself have said,
“Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart.”
Receive
into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble
souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven
into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father’s favorites.
They
are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself
takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in
Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a
hymn of love and mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble
souls, and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is
the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest
resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and
reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg
You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight You take in
them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the
praises of Your mercy for endless ages.
Amen.

Seventh
Day of the
Divine Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me THE SOULS WHO ESPECIALLY VENERATE AND
GLORIFY MY MERCY, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls sorrowed
most over my Passion and entered most deeply into My spirit. They are
living images of My Compassionate Heart. These souls will shine with a
special brightness in the next life. Not one of them will go into the
fire of hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them at the hour
of death.
[Novena Prayers:] Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself,
receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of
those who particularly extol and venerate the greatness of Your mercy.
These souls are mighty with the very power of God Himself. In the midst
of all afflictions and adversities they go forward, confident of Your
mercy; and united to You, O Jesus, they carry all mankind on their
shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will
embrace them as they depart from this life.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and
venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and
who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls
are a living Gospel; their hands are full of deeds of mercy, and their
hearts, overflowing with joy, sing a canticle of mercy to You, O Most
High! I beg You O God:
Show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed
in You. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, who
said to them that during their life, but especially at the hour of
death, the souls who will venerate this fathomless mercy of His, He,
Himself, will defend as His glory.
Amen.

Eighth
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me THE SOULS WHO ARE DETAINED IN PURGATORY,
and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. Let the torrents of My Blood
cool down their scorching flames. All these souls are greatly loved by
Me. They are making retribution to My justice. It is in your power to
bring them relief. Draw all the indulgences from the treasury of My
Church and offer them on their behalf. Oh, if you only knew the
torments they suffer, you would continually offer for them the alms of
the spirit and pay off their debt to My justice.
[Novena Prayers:] Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said that You
desire mercy; so I bring into the abode of Your Most Compassionate
Heart the souls in Purgatory, souls who are very dear to You, and yet,
who must make retribution to Your justice. May the streams of Blood and
Water which gushed forth from Your Heart put out the flames of
Purgatory, that there, too, the power of Your mercy may be celebrated.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls suffering in
Purgatory, who are enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I
beg You, by the sorrowful Passion of Jesus Your Son, and by all the
bitterness with which His most sacred Soul was flooded: Manifest Your
mercy to the souls who are under Your just scrutiny. Look upon them in
no other way but only through the Wounds of Jesus, Your dearly beloved
Son; for we firmly believe that there is no limit to Your goodness and
compassion.
Amen.

Ninth
Day of the Divine
Mercy Novena:
Intention: Today bring to Me SOULS WHO HAVE BECOME LUKEWARM, and
immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. These souls wound My Heart most
painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in the Garden of
Olives because of lukewarm souls. They were the reason I cried out:
‘Father, take this cup away from Me, if it be Your
will.’
For them, the last hope of salvation is to run to My mercy.
[Novena Prayers:] Most compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I
bring lukewarm souls into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart.
In this fire of Your pure love, let these tepid souls, who, like
corpses, filled You with such deep loathing, be once again set aflame.
O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise the omnipotence of Your mercy and
draw them into the very ardor of Your love, and bestow upon them the
gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Your power.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls who are
nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Father
of Mercy, I beg You by the bitter Passion of Your Son and by His
three-hour agony on the Cross: Let them, too, glorify the abyss of Your
mercy.
Amen.
