The following promises were given by the Blessed Mother to Saint Dominic
and Blessed Alan in the twelfth century. These promises are fifteen in
number and are for Christians who recite the Rosary. The
Blessed Mother promises:
- Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of
the Rosary, shall receive signal graces.
- I promise my special protection and the greatest graces
to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
- The Rosary shall be powerful armor against hell. It will
destroy vice, decrease sin and defeat heresies.
- It will cause virtue and good works to flourish. It will
obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God. It will withdraw
the hearts 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 themselves by this means.
- The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation
of the Rosary, shall not perish.
- 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 perish by an unprovided death.
If he be just, he shall remain in the grace of God and become
worthy of eternal life.
- Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall
not die without the sacraments of the Church.
- Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have,
during their life and at their death, the light of God and
the plentitude of His graces. At the moment of death, they
shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise.
- I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted
to the Rosary.
- The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high
degree of glory in heaven.
- You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of
the Rosary.
- All those who propagate the holy Rosary shall be aided
by me in their necessities.
- 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.
- All who recite the Rosary are my sons and brothers of
my only Son, Jesus Christ.
- Devotion of my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
