HUMILITY - The Beauty of Holiness --- & --- LITANY OF HUMILITY - LITANIJA GĦALL-UMILTÀ

U.S. seminarians in Rome reflect on the Litany of Humility

 

TO RECOGNIZE THAT WE ARE PROUD, IS THE BEGINNING OF HUMILITY....TO FLATTER OURSELVES THAT WE ARE HUMBLE, IS THE BEGINNING OF PRIDE, AND THE MORE HUMBLE WE THINK OURSELVES, THE GREATER IS OUR PRIDE.......

 LITANY OF HUMILITY 



https://www.ewtn.com/Devotionals/prayers/humility.htm

Litany of Humility - Rafael Cardinal Merry del Val (1865-1930), Secretary of State for Pope Saint Pius X

O Jesus! meek and humble of heart, Hear me.
         
From the desire of being esteemed,
Deliver me, Jesus.
From the desire of being loved...
From the desire of being extolled ...
From the desire of being honored ...
From the desire of being praised ...
From the desire of being preferred to others...
From the desire of being consulted ...
From the desire of being approved ...
         
From the fear of being humiliated ...
From the fear of being despised...
From the fear of suffering rebukes ...
From the fear of being calumniated ...
From the fear of being forgotten ...
From the fear of being ridiculed ...
From the fear of being wronged ...
From the fear of being suspected ...

That others may be loved more than I,
Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.

That others may be esteemed more than I ...
That, in the opinion of the world,
others may increase and I may decrease ...
That others may be chosen and I set aside ...
That others may be praised and I unnoticed ...
That others may be preferred to me in everything...
That others may become holier than I, provided that I may become as holy as I should...

Each one of us has the opportunity to grow in holiness - for God  turns a tragedy, a confrontation, a humilition,  into grace...even after years of self-pity or grudge or even denial.

Mk 4:1-20 -- The Parable of the Sower - Il-parabbola taż-żerriegħ

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpLAac-9DO8
4. Il-parabbola taż-żerriegħ
(Mt 13, 1-9 ; Lq 8, 4-8)
[Mk:4:1] Raġa' beda jgħallem ħdejn il-baħar, u nġabret madwaru kotra kbira, hekk li kellu jitla' bilqiegħda f'dgħajsa fuq il-baħar, u n-nies kollha l-art matul ix-xatt. [Mk:4:2] U qagħad jgħallimhom ħafna ħwejjeġ bil-parabboli, u fit-tagħlim tiegħu qalilhom:
 [Mk:4:3] "Isimgħu. Darba kien hemm bidwi u ħareġ jiżra'. [Mk:4:4] Ġara li hu u jiżra', xi żerrigħat waqgħu fil-mogħdija; ġew l-għasafar u naqqruhom kollha. [Mk:4:5] Oħrajn waqgħu f'art kollha blat fejn ma kienx hemm wisq ħamrija, u malajr nibtu, għax il-ħamrija ma kinitx fonda; [Mk:4:6] meta mbagħad telgħet ix-xemx, nħarqu u nixfu, billi ma kellhomx għeruq. [Mk:4:7] Oħrajn waqgħu qalb ix-xewk u x-xewk kiber u ħanaqhom, u frott ma għamlux. [Mk:4:8] Oħrajn waqgħu f'art tajba, u għamlu l-frott; u l-frott kiber u tkattar, u min għamel tletin, min sittin, u min mija." [Mk:4:9] U qal: "Min għandu widnejn biex jisma', ħa jisma'!"
L-għala Ġesù tkellem bil-parabboli
(Mt 13,10-15, Lq 8, 9-10)
[Mk:4:10] Meta kien waħdu, dawk ta' madwaru flimkien mat-Tnax resqu jitolbuh ifissrilhom il-parabboli. [Mk:4:11] U hu qalilhom: "Lilkom ingħata l-misteru tas-Saltna ta' Alla, imma l-oħrajn, li huma barra, ikollhom kollox bil-parabboli, [Mk:4:12] ħalli 'jħarsu kemm iħarsu ma jarawx, u jisimgħu kemm jisimgħu ma jifhmux, li ma jibdlux ħajjithom u jaqilgħu l-maħfra'."
Ġesù jfisser il-parabbola taż-żerriegħ
(Mt 13, 18-23 ; Lq 8, 11-15)
[Mk:4:13] "Din il-parabbola m'intomx tifhmuha?" qalilhom."Mela kif se tifhmu l-parabboli l-oħra kollha? [Mk:4:14] Dak li l-bidwi jiżra' hija  l-kelma. [Mk:4:15] Dawk ta' matul il-mogħdija, fejn inżergħet il-kelma, huma dawk li malli jisimgħuha, jersaq ix-Xitan u jaħtfilhom il-kelma li nżergħet f'qalbhom. [Mk:4:16] Dawk li jinżergħu f'art kollha blat huma dawk li meta jisimgħu l-kelma, minnufih jilqgħuha bil-ferħ, [Mk:4:17] imma għeruq ma jkollhomx, u għalhekk ftit idumu; meta mbagħad jiġi fuqhom l-għawġ, jew isibu min iħabbathom minħabba l-kelma, malajr jitfixklu. [Mk:4:18] L-oħrajn li jinżergħu qalb ix-xewk huma dawk li jisimgħu l-kelma, [Mk:4:19] iżda l-inkwiet żejjed għall-ħwejjeġ tad-dinja, ir-rabta mal-ġid ta' l-art, u l-ġibda għal ħwejjeġ oħra, jidħlu fihom u joħonqulhom il-kelma, li għalhekk ma tagħmilx frott. [Mk:4:20] Dawk imbagħad li jinżergħu f'art tajba huma dawk li jisimgħu l-kelma, jilqgħuha, u jagħmlu l-frott, min tletin, min sittin u min mija."

The Secret of Sanctity

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MzFWi3-b2M





We Are Not Saints Because We Do Not Want To Be


"If we keep praying for our enemies, we are meriting graces for them and for ourselves and the devil will eventually give up." 

We have to be always conscious that the worst enemy is ourselves - our decision will draw us closer to God or away from Him, leading ourselves to one fall deeper than the other, without direction ... 

We should not be afraid to be merciful. We should not be afraid to defeat our own pride ...

GOD NEVER REJECTS A CONTRITE HEART...

We need to exercise mercy through our actions, through our words, through our prayers and through our thoughts --- We can do them by performing the Spiritual and Corporal works of Mercy:

SPIRITUAL WORKS OF MERCY:
To instruct the ignorant.
To counsel the doubtful.
To admonish the sinners.
To bear patiently those who wrong us.
To forgive offenses .
To comfort the afflicted.
To pray for the living and the dead.

 

 

CORPORAL WORKS OF MERCY:
To feed the hungry.
To give water to the thirsty.
To clothe the naked.
To shelter the homeless.
To visit the sick.
To visit the imprisoned, or ransom the captive.
To bury the dead.

Litany of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus - EWTN

http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=ediFDYGLCo4

Lk 1:1-4; 4:14-21 -- Introduction & Jesus in the synagogue - Dedika lil ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1vJDewJUYo

1. Dedika lil Teofilu
[Lq:1:1] Bosta kienu dawk li ħadu f'idejhom ix-xogħol li jiġbru bl-ordni f'rakkont wieħed il-ġrajja li seħħu fostna, [Lq:1:2] kif għaddewhom lilna dawk li sa mill-bidu rawhom b'għajnejhom stess u saru ministri  tal-kelma. Lq:1:3] Hekk ukoll jien, għażiż Teofilu, wara li bir-reqqa kollha qgħadt infittex it-tagħrif dwar kull ma ġara sa mill-bidunett, deherli li għandi niktiblek kollox ħaġa b'ħaġa, [Lq:1:4] biex tagħraf sewwa l-verità sħiħa dwar kull ma tgħallimt.

Il-bidu tal-ministeru ta' Ġesù fil-Galilija
(Mt 4, 12-17 ; Mk 1, 14-15)
[Lq:4:14] Ġesù, bil-qawwa ta' l-Ispirtu, reġa' mar il-Galilija; u l-fama tiegħu xterdet ma' dawk l-inħawi kollha, [Lq:4:15] għax hu kien jgħallem fis-sinagogi tagħhom fost it-tifħir ta' kulħadd.
In-nies ta' Nazaret ma jilqgħux lil Ġesù
(Mk 13, 53-38 ; Mt 6, 1-6)
[Lq:4:16] U ġie Nazaret fejn kien trabba. Daħal fis-sinagoga tagħhom, kif kien imdorri jagħmel nhar ta' Sibt, u qam biex jaqra.[Lq:4:17] Tawh f'idejh il-ktieb ta' Isaija l-profeta, fetħu u sab fejn kien hemm miktub dan li ġej:
        [Lq:4:18] 'L-Ispirtu tal-Mulej fuqi,
        għax hu kkonsagrani,
        Bagħatni nħabbar il-ħelsien lill-imjassrin,
        nwassal il-bxara t-tajba lill-fqajrin,
        u d-dawl mill-ġdid lill-għomja,
        nrodd il-ħelsien lill-maħqurin
        [Lq:4:19] u nxandar sena tal-grazzja tal-Mulej.'
[Lq:4:20] Mbagħad raġa' għalaq il-ktieb, tah lura lill-qaddej u qagħad bilqiegħda. Għajnejn kulħadd fis-sinagoga kienu msammra fuqu. [Lq:4:21] U beda jgħidilhom: "Din il-kitba seħħet illum, intom u tisimgħu."

 Matthias Chosen to Replace Judas

¹⁵ In those days Peter stood up among the believers (together the crowd numbered about one hundred twenty persons) and said, ¹⁶ “Friends, the scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit through David foretold concerning Judas, who became a guide for those who arrested Jesus— ¹⁷ for he was numbered among us and was allotted his share in this ministry.” 

 ²⁰ “For it is written in the book of Psalms,

‘Let his homestead become desolate,
    and let there be no one to live in it’;

and

‘Let another take his position of overseer.’

²¹ So one of the men who have accompanied us during all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, ²² beginning from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us—one of these must become a witness with us to his resurrection.” ²³ So they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also known as Justus, and Matthias. ²⁴ Then they prayed and said, “Lord, you know everyone’s heart. Show us which one of these two you have chosen ²⁵ to take the place in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place.” ²⁶ And they cast lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was added to the eleven apostles.

Prayer to end Abortion ---- Strike Their Hearts

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB3LKaf4sBU     22nd January 2013
{Jesus used prayer to drive out demons and we need prayer to drive the evil of abortion out of our land}

Praise be to Jesus
Praise, honour and glory to the Blessed Trinity now and for all eternity. Holy, Almighty and Eternal God, please send St Michael, your Archangel, with your fiery sword of Truth, to strike the hearts of all those who perform the abominable and heinous sin of abortion. Strike the hearts of all those who even now are contemplating abortion; to rid themselves of the new and wonderful life You have just created which they carry within themselves. Strike the hearts of all who condone, support or leave untouched this horrible evil, through their actions or inaction. Strike their hearts with Your sword of Truth, so that they may cry out to You, Divine Justice, so that they may cry out to You from the depths of their souls for Your forgiveness and Mercy.  When they call out from the depths of their souls Father, forgive them of this heinous sin. Pour Your immense all-consuming love into their hearts. Welcome them back into the fold as little lost sheep.  Jesus, You are the good shepherd. Welcome back into your fold all sinners as we respond to your out-pouring of Divine Mercy. Amen.

IL-KURUNELLA LILL- MADONNA TAD-DULURI - Chaplet to Our Lady of Sorrows (in Maltese)

Il-Kurunella lill-Madonna tad-Duluri

Qalb imnikkta ta’ Marija

F’riġlejk aħna mixħutin
Qalbna niedma u sogħbiena
Għaliex aħna midinbin

                                             Ave.

Omm tal-ħniena kemm duluri

Int ġarrabt m’Ibnek Ġesὺ
Minn twelidu sal-mewt tiegħu,
Għaliex b’Ommu riedek Hu !

                                             Ave.

Omm sabiħa, kollok safja

Int għoġobt ‘l Alla ħanin
Minn ħtijietna nitolbuk
Eħles lilna mnikktin

                                             Ave.

Bi dnubietna aħna regħexna

Lil Ġesù Teżor ta’ Qalbek;
Fis ħbieb miegħu int erġa’ agħmilna
Dana tista’ tagħmlu b’talbek. 

                                            Ave.

Biex jifdina minn dnubietna

Ġesù miet fl-akbar ħruxija,
U għax miegħu int ridt tissieħeb
Bid-Dulur qalbek mimlija.

                                            Ave.

Tad-dnub tagħna aqlgħalna ndiema

Minn kull ħażen int eħlisna,
Għax irridu tul ħajjitna
li d-Demm t’ibnek iqaddisna.

                                            Ave.

Bit-tgħakkis u bl-opri tajba

Nipproponu li nfarrġuk
id-dmugħ tiegħek nixxuttawlek
Biex għal dejjem ġieħ nagħtuk

                                            Ave.

            --------------------------------

                               NITOLBU

O Alla, li fil-Passjoni tiegħek, kif kien ħabbar Xmun

il-Profeta, is-sejf tad-Duluri nifed il-Qalb l-iżjed

ħelwa tal-glorjuża Verġni Marija Ommok; agħmel

nitolbuk, li aħna, li qegħdin inqimu n-niket tagħha,

ikollna sehem mill-frott hieni tal-Passjoni tiegħek.

Int li tgħix u ssaltan għal dejjem ta’ dejjem.  Ammen.

John 8:44b ... the devil was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

SPIRITUAL WARFARE AND PRAYER
>>> https://www.foundationforpriests.org/spiritual-warfare <<<

from St Paul's letter to the Ephesians 6:10-20

Battle Against Evil. ¹⁰ Finally, draw your strength from the Lord and from his mighty power. ¹¹ Put on the armour of God so that you may be able to stand firm against the tactics of the devil. ¹² For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens. ¹³ Therefore, put on the armor of God, that you may be able to resist on the evil day and, having done everything, to hold your ground. ¹⁴ So stand fast with your loins girded in truth, clothed with righteousness as a breastplate, ¹⁵ and your feet shod in readiness for the gospel of peace. ¹⁶ In all circumstances, hold faith as a shield, to quench all [the] flaming arrows of the evil one. ¹⁷ And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God

Constant Prayer.¹⁸ With all prayer and supplication, pray at every opportunity in the Spirit. To that end, be watchful with all perseverance and supplication for all the holy ones ¹⁹ and also for me, that speech may be given me to open my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel ²⁰ for which I am an ambassador in chains, so that I may have the courage to speak as I must.

mill-Ittra ta' San Pawl lil Efesin 6:10-20

Il-ġlieda kontra l-ħażen

[Efes:6:10] Mill-bqija, twettqu fil-Mulej u ssaħħu bil-qawwa tiegħu. [Efes:6:11] Ilbsu l-armatura ta' Alla biex tkunu tifilħu tieqfu għat-tnassis tax-Xitan. [Efes:6:12] Għax il-ġlieda tagħna m'hijiex kontra d-demm u l-laħam, imma kontra s-Setgħat, kontra l-Qawwiet, kontra l-Prinċpijiet ta' din id-dinja ta' dlamijiet, kontra l-ispirti ħżiena li jgħammru fil-wisa' tas-smewwiet. [Efes:6:13] Għalhekk ħudu fuqkom  l-armatura ta' Alla, ħalli tkunu tistgħu tieqfu fi żmien il-ħażen, u, wara li tkunu għamiltu ħilitkom kollha, żżommu weqfin. [Efes:6:14] Żommu sħiħ, mela, ħażżmu ġenbejkom bil-verità, ilbsu l-kurazza tal-ġustizzja, [Efes:6:15] u xiddu riġlejkom bil-ħeġġa ta' l-Evanġelju tas-sliem; [Efes:6:16] ħudu f'idejkom it-tarka tal-fidi; li biha tistgħu titfu l-vleġeġ kollha tan-nar tal-Ħażin; [Efes:6:17] ilbsu l-elmu tas-salvazzjoni u aqbdu x-xabla ta' l-Ispirtu li hi l-kelma ta' Alla.

[Efes:6:18] Itolbu dejjem fl-Ispirtu, b'kull xorta ta' talb u f'kull ħtieġa, ishru fih bla ma tieqfu, u itolbu għall-ħtiġiet tal-qaddisin kollha. [Efes:6:19] Itolbu għalija wkoll, biex meta niftaħ fommi tingħatali l-kelma, ħalli b'wiċċi minn quddiem inxandar il-misteru ta' l-Evanġelju, [Efes:6:20] li tiegħu jiena  l-ambaxxatur fil-ktajjen. Jalla jien u nxandar nkun nista' nitkellem b'wiċċi minn quddiem kif għandi nagħmel.

REPEAT THE PRAYER A FEW TIMES and if it stops, that is what it was ------ if it does not stop, then it is not what is behind it......Thats it - it is diagnostic.

....to clear the air......

IN THE NAME OF JESUS,
I BIND ANY SPIRIT HERE
THAT IS NOT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT,
AND SEND YOU TO THE FOOT OF THE CROSS 
TO BE JUDGED BY OUR LORD

O PRECIOUS BLOOD WASH OVER ME;
PROTECT ME FROM THE WICKEDNESS
AND SNARES OF THE DEVIL.
        -------------------


ST MICHAEL'S PRAYER:
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the divine power, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

Sacramentals – exorcised water, oil, salt and incense

Sacramentals such as exorcised water, oil, said and incense are very successful in fight against evil. Every priest can exorcise water, salt and oil.

The effect of sacramentals

Every priest can use the sacramentals. Their power depends on the priest’s personal beliefs and the cooperation of the person accepting the sacramental through acts of faith, love and repentance. The power of sacramentals lies in the intercessory prayer of the Church, in the name of which the priest blesses or exorcises people and objects.

Sacramentals create a connection between the supernatural and natural worlds, and therefore they sanctify man’s life. Because of that, they are a threat for evil spirits and their value in the fight against forces of evil cannot be taken lightly. See: “Sacramentals in the Catechism”.

Sprinkling a possessed person with blessed water is an act of offering them to God. Blessed water protects people, houses, items, lets us come out triumphant of the fight against suggestions, physical and mental suffering, springing from the evil spirit. Therefore, it can also be drunk, sprayed on painful spots on the body and on everyday items. This helps to neutralize signs manifested by the evil spirit on the body, as well as on objects.

Exorcised oil is a special sort of sacramental. According to father Amorth, a roman exorcist, the oil has the ability to remove various magical, poisonous, impure meals, which found their way into the enslaved’s body through eating or drinking. Therefore, exorcised oil may be used to season food, when a suspicion that something poisonous, harmful or magical has been eaten arises. It causes a fast expulsion of the object in question. Rubbing with oil aids the work of grace in the fight with the evil spirit and his influence on the possessed person’s body.

Exorcised salt works on a given place through sprinkling in rooms considered infected by the devilish forces’ actions, e.g. in places where evil spirits were summoned, pagan or spiritistic rituals took place. It is also used in the protection of houses, homes, farm buildings and fields, if a suspicion that they are under the influence of curses arises. Salt may be added to food if a suspicion of being enchanted through a meal arises.

Blessed incense is used in specific conditions, when evil spirits overpower the enslaved person, denying them contact with their surroundings. The smoke of blessed incense irritates evil spirits, which causes them to reveal themselves and move away. This helps the priest in the recognition of evil spirits.
