Fourth Day of Divine Mercy Novena April 9, 2007
Today bring to Me
Those Who Do Not Believe in God*
And Those Who Do Not Yet Know Me.
I was thinking also of them during My
Bitter Passion, and their future zeal comforted
My Heart. Immerse them in the ocean of
My mercy.
Most compassionate Jesus, You are the Light
Of the whole world, Receive into the abode of
Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of
Those who do not believe in God and of those
Who as yet do not know You. Let the rays of
Your grace enlighten them that they, too, together
With us, may extol Your wonderful mercy; and
Do not let them escape from the abode which is
Your Most Compassionate Heart.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon
The souls of those who do not believe in You, and
Of those who as yet do not know You, but who are
Enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of
Jesus. Draw them to the light of the Gospel. These
Souls do not know what great happiness it is to
Love You. Grant that they, too, may extol the gen-
erosity of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.
*Our Lord’s original words here were "the pagans."
Since the pontificate of Pope John XXIII, the church
Has seen fit to replace this term with clearer and more
Appropriate terminology.

You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and an ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty yourself out upon us. (Diary 1319)
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in You! (Diary 84)
Begin with:
The Our Father or The Lords Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hollowed be thy name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth
as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen
The Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
Now and at the hour of our death. Amen
The Apostle's Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into hell.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and life everlasting. Amen
On the Large bead before each decade:
Eternal Father,
I offer You the Body and Blood
Soul and Divinity of your dearly beloved Son,
Our Lord Jesus Christ,
in atonement for our sins,
and those of the whole world.
On the ten small beads of each decade, say:
For the sake of His sorrowful Passion,
have mercy on us
and on the whole world.
When you get to the next large bead, Repeat the Eternal Father prayer and on the next ten small beads the For the sake of his sorrowful passion Prayer.
After you conclude all five decades, Pray:by repeating three times in a row
Holy God,
Holy Mighty One,
Holy Immortal One,
have mercy on us
and on the whole world.
Closing Prayer: Prayed Once
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless
and the treasury of compassion-inexhaustible,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent,
but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself. (Diary 950)
There is a recommendation to pray the chaplet or Novena prayers at the hour of Mercy daily. If your working or what ever life's demands call you to, It can be prayed at any time of the day that you decide. I'll be praying here daily at 3 PM.
Another helpful thing I do when I have to be somewhere other than home is set the alarm on my cell phone to 3 PM to Vibrate, And then I say a few for the Sake of his sorrowful passion and just remind my self of his divine mercy and our saviors death on the cross. It just brings my mind back to Christ in the middle of the day and helps me to re-focus my distracted mind back on the one we Love.
