INFORMAÇÕES EM PORTUGUÊS
Domingo da Divina Misericórdia
Por quê esta Festa é tão importante?
"As almas se perdem, apesar da Minha
amarga Paixão. Estou lhes dando a última
tábua de salvação, isto é, a Festa da Minha
Misericórdia. Se não venerarem a Minha
Misericórdia, perecerão por toda
eternidade.... está próximo a dia da minha
justiça". (D. 965)
“ Na Minha festa, na festa da Misericórdia,
percorrerás o mundo inteiro e trarás as almas que
desfalecem à fonte de Minha Misericórdia. Eu as
curarei e fortalecerei” (D. 206)
Quem está convidado para esta Festa e o que
podemos alcançar? “Desejo que a Festa da Misericórdia seja refúgio e
abrigo para todas as almas, especialmente para os pecadores. Nesse dia,
estão abertas as entranhas da Minha misericórdia. (D.699)
“Minha filha, quero entregar-Me às almas, desejo almas. Na minha festa,
na festa da Misericórdia, percorrerás o mundo inteiro e trarás as almas que
desfalecem à fonte de Minha Misericórdia. Eu as curarei e fortalecerei”
(D. 206).
“Nesse dia, estão abertas as entranhas da Minha misericórdia. Derramo
todo um mar de graças sobre as almas que se aproximam da fonte da
Misericórdia. A alma que se confessar e comungar alcançará perdão
das culpas e das penas. Nesse dia, estão abertas todas as comportas
divinas pelas quais fluem as graças. Que nenhuma alma tenha medo de se
aproximar de Mim, ainda que seus pecados sejam como o escarlate. A
Minha misericórdia é tão grande que, por toda a eternidade, nenhuma
mente, nem humana, nem angélica, a aprofundará. Tudo o que existe saiu
das entranhas da Minha misericórdia.” (D.699) “Essa festa saiu do mais
íntimo da Minha Misericórdia e está aprovada nas profundezas da Minha
compaixão. Toda alma que crê e confia na Minha Misericórdia irá
alcançála.” (D. 420)
Sobre o Terço da Divina Misericórdia:
Jesus Cristo ditou a Irmã Faustina o Terço da Misericórdia Divina em
Vilna, nos dias 13-14 de setembro de 1935, como uma oração para aplacar a
ira divina e pedir perdão pelos nossos pecados e pelos pecados do mundo
inteiro. "Oh! que grandes graças concederei às almas que recitarem esse
Terço" (D. 848). "Por ele conseguirás tudo, se o que pedires estiver de
acordo com a Minha vontade" (D. 1731)."Recita, sem cessar, este Terço que
te ensinei. Todo aquele que o recitar alcançará grande misericórdia na
hora da sua morte. Os sacerdotes o recomendarão aos pecadores como a
última tábua de salvação. Ainda que o pecador seja o mais endurecido, se
recitar este Terço uma só vez, alcançará a graça da Minha infinita
misericórdia" (D.687). “Quando os pecadores empedernidos o recitarem,
encherei de paz as suas almas, e a hora da morte deles será feliz. Quando
recitarem esse Terço junto aos agonizantes, Eu Me colocarei entre o Pai e a
alma agonizante não como justo Juiz, mas como Salvador Misericordioso” (D.1541).
