FIRST FRIDAY IN DECEMBER, 2025.

FIRST FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5TH  2025. 

Jesus promised 12 special favors to all those who will honor His Sacred Heart especially on the First Friday of every month by attending Holy Mass and receiving Holy Communion.

 In the 12th and last month of the year 2025, we consider Promise #12. 

Promise #12. "The all-powerful love of My Heart will grant to all those who shall attend Mass and receive Communion on the First Friday of nine consecutive months the grace of final repentance;

 they shall not die under My displeasure, nor without receiving their Sacraments;

 My Heart shall be their assured refuge at that last hour."

What is the grace of Final Repentance?

This is tantamount to the grace of Perseverance in being a good Christian to the end of your life. This is one of the best things anyone can ask for. 

There is a law of nature called the Principle of Entropy that says that every created thing tends towards death or desolution. Spiritual matters are not exempt. To persevere in the sphere of the spirit, you need a higher spiritual law. 

Perseverance in Prayer is the key to spiritual security.

What do we need to be able to persevere?

 You need key spiritual principles. 

1. Prayer: So that our faith will grow. The fruit of Prayer is a deepening of faith. (St Teresa of Kolkata).

2. Word of God: We learn the Heart of God through the word of God. (St. Gregory the Great).

The word of God equip us for ministry. "You shall hear the word from my mouth. You shall tell them what you hear." (Cf Deuteronomy 18: 18 NABRE). 

3. Eucharist: Frequently. 

4. Reconciliation: Frequently. 

5. Spiritual Reading: Daily. 

6. Examination of conscience: Twice daily.

7. Ministry /Faith Sharing: Share what God is doing in you and for you with someone everyday. 

Friends, the 12th Promise is a tremendous promise.

 Let us thank our Lord Jesus Christ for such a generous offer.   You will appreciate this promise when you are close to death. You will experience No fear. No worry. No doubt about your eternal destiny. 

Honor the Sacred Heart of Jesus this Friday by attending Holy Mass and receiving Holy Communion.
