Evil in the world is as real as the existence of our God and his son and his mother. Evil is always lurking, so we must use all available resources to ward it off.
Some of the best things to ward off evil besides the divine power of God and our Lord Jesus as well as his mother Mary are the medal and crucifix of Saint Benedict, in addition to the holy rosary of Saint Benedict that we will teach you how to pray here. Praying the complete rosary of Saint Benedict is not difficult.
How to pray the Rosary of Saint Benedict the Abbot step by step
Now I present to you, my brother, the correct way to perform the complete Rosary of Saint Benedict, which begins with the sign of the cross and ends with the chaplet of Saint Benedict:
- Crossing ourselves
With the rosary in our hands we cross ourselves in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. - We speak to the eternal God
Through the following words we ask for intelligence, patience and life through the spirit of our Lord, Jesus.
“Kind and Holy Father, give us the wisdom to discover you, the intelligence to understand you, the diligence to seek you, the patience to wait for you, the eyes to contemplate you, a heart to meditate on you and a life to proclaim you; through the power of the Spirit of Jesus, our Lord. Amen.” - We ask God for intelligence with the first cord
“God our Father, in your goodness, grant me the intellect to understand you , the perception to discern you, and the reason to appreciate you.” - In the accounts we ask for God’s guidance for our path
“Teach me to walk in your ways, O Lord, with the Gospel as my guide.” - We ask God for intelligence again with the second cord
“In your goodness, grant me the intelligence to seek you , the wisdom to discover you, and the spirit to capture you.” - God is asked to drive away Satan in the following beads
“ May your Holy Cross be my light ; may Satan never be my guide.” - In the third cord we will ask our God for vision, sight and tongue:
“In your grace, grant me a heart to contemplate you , ears to hear you, eyes to see you, and a tongue to speak of you.” - In the beads we ask for blessing and strength
“May I be strengthened by your presence, O Lord, at the hour of death.” - In the fourth cord we ask the Almighty for the gift of patience and perseverance.
“In your mercy, entrust me with a conversation that pleases you , the patience to wait for you and the perseverance to long for you.” - In the accounts we will drive away Satan
“Away with Satan! Never tempt me with your vanities; for what you offer is evil.” - We dedicate the last prayer to the heavenly father
“Grant me a perfect ending in Your Holy Presence, O Lord. Amen.” - Last prayer dedicated to God for the grace of Saint Benedict
“ We will ask for the protection of our parents and our children.”
