“The Lord said to me, Enter into purgatory often, because they need you there. O my Jesus, I understand the meaning of these words which You are speaking to me, but first let me enter the treasury of Your mercy” – Divine Mercy in My Soul # 1738
It’s been a while since we took the Road of Faith into Purgatory.
Jesus asks St. Faustina and each of us to “Enter into Purgatory often.” The holy souls in Purgatory are in great need of our prayers and the graces we can offer for them.
So, today, let us join together with our Lady and all those who walk The Road of Faith in the prayer for God’s Divine Mercy to flow into Purgatory and sanctify every soul, emptying Purgatory completely. We add that in God’s great Mercy and for the sake of the sorrowful passion of His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, Purgatory remain closed today that all souls who pass from this life on this day may be granted immediate entrance into Heaven.
This is not an impossible prayer. With God’s Divine Mercy all things are possible.
The Chaplet of Divine Mercy is our knockout punch for this ‘Empty Purgatory” request. Day 8 of the Novena of Divine Mercy focuses all our prayers into Purgatory.
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.
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.
