CONSOLATION PRAYERS TO THE AGONIZING JESUS CHRIST (23 June 1997)
(1) PRAYER: Eternal Father, when You were about to send Your only-begotten Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, into the world with the aim of saving us and bringing a new paradise into the world through the most Precious Blood, out of love You said, “Whom shall I send? Who will go to redeem My people?” The heavenly court was silent until Your Son answered, “Here I am, send Me Father.”
Honor and adoration be unto You O Divine Love. Praise and worship be unto Your name, O loving Jesus Christ. Take consolation, O Agonizing Jesus Christ, the reward You received from Your people for Your benevolence was sin. They sinned and blasphemed day and night against Your Holy Name. They fought against You and disobeyed Your commandments.
Father, be comforted through the voice of Your heavenly choirs. May the voice of Your Dominions console You. Amen.
Our Father*…Hail Mary*…Glory Be*…
Agonizing Jesus Christ Bear it Lord
Agonizing Jesus Christ We love you
Agonizing Heart of Jesus Christ Thy Kingdom come
Hymn
Be consoled O Jesus Christ Our Lord.
Your Precious Blood, shed for us all,
Will never be in vain we pray.
(2) PRAYER: Eternal Father, You prepared a holy tabernacle, the womb of the Blessed Virgin Mary, for Your only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ. Blessed be the womb which bore the only Son of God.
Father, Your begotten Son was born in Bethlehem and laid in a manger because there was no room in the inn for Him and His parents. It was so that the world will seek the Kingdom of Heaven rather than the perishable wealth of this world.
Father, this indicated that Your own people were not ready to welcome their King, Redeemer and Creator. There was no room for the King of heaven and earth in His own land.
Lord, You came to Your own people and they did not recognize You. As a King, You came to your own country and they did not know You. When they heard of You they planned for Your death. With that plan, they killed numerous children. A bitter cry and lamentation was echoing in Your land as a welcome for the King. Women refused to be comforted because their children were dead.
Jesus, You bore all these things for the love You have for Your people. But Your people continued sinning and doing all kinds of evil against You and Your Heavenly Father. As a King, they regarded You as their enemy. As a Redeemer, You were a predator to Your own people, whom You saved. Who will, in remembering Your mercy and kindness to Your people, console You enough?
Take consolation. Be comforted, O loving Jesus Christ. May the voice of Your heavenly choirs of angels and archangels praise You and console You. Amen.
Our Father*…Hail Mary*…Glory Be*…
Agonizing Jesus Christ Bear it Lord
Agonizing Jesus Christ We love you
Agonizing Heart of Jesus Christ Thy Kingdom come
Hymn
Calm the heat of Your anger O Lord.
We are sorry, we all have sinned,
We will never sin again.
(3) PRAYER: O loving Jesus Christ, You, Who came into the world to redeem Your people from sin. Oh, the Chief Shepherd Who was treated badly and scornfully by His flock. You came and saw Your people defiling the Holy Temple of Your Father. In your fury, You chased them out of the Holy Temple. But today, men are becoming most carnal by neglecting Your presence in the Holy Tabernacle. We console You for the sins men commit against You in the Holy Tabernacle, for the coldness and neglect which they show in Your presence, for those who receive You unworthily, and for all the acts of disrespect which men commit against You. Forgive, pardon, O loving Jesus Christ. Although men crucify You again and again, in Your great mercy bear all these insults from Your loving creatures. O merciful Jesus Christ, accept our consolation, we pray You, and have mercy on Your people. May the voice of the heavenly Virtues console You. Amen.
Our Father*…Hail Mary*…Glory Be*…
Agonizing Jesus Christ Bear it Lord
Agonizing Jesus Christ We love you
Agonizing Heart of Jesus Christ Thy Kingdom come
Hymn
Agonizing Heart of Jesus Christ,
You have suffered, and paid for our lives,
May Your will be done on earth.
(4) PRAYER: O merciful and loving Jesus Christ, You suffered sorrowfully and fearfully in the Garden of Gethsemane. Thus You said, “My soul is sorrowful, even unto death.” We console Your Sacred Heart which bears much pain. You suffered scourging at the pillar and crowning with thorns for us to be reconciled with God. Nevertheless, many innocent souls are being aborted daily and their cries wound Your Sacred Heart. We pray You to forgive men all their trespasses. May the voices of the heavenly Cherubim and Seraphim console You, and may the tone of the evangelization of this world comfort You. Amen.
Our Father*…Hail Mary*…Glory Be*…
Agonizing Jesus Christ Bear it Lord
Agonizing Jesus Christ We love you
Agonizing Heart of Jesus Christ Thy Kingdom come
Hymn
Jesus in the Holy Eucharist,
We are sorry, for all the sins,
Committed against You on earth.

(5) PRAYER: O good and merciful Jesus Christ, Who offered Himself as a sacrificial lamb for the salvation of mankind, we console You. In humility You surrendered to the Jewish soldiers who dragged You like a criminal, mercilessly to the merciless, O good God, to be judged by man. We console You, O Agonizing Jesus Christ, for all these insults received in the world’s courts. We console You for all the cruel torments You suffered from Your people. May You be adored forever. Amen.
