Aims of the Devotion

The aims of the Devotion to the Divine Heart of God the Father are:

  1. That the Father be paid direct homage, worship, and veneration (justly due to Him), all of which He has asked for several times, but remain seriously lacking;
  2. To provide a concrete symbol of His love that reminds people they do have a Father, and one who loves them infinitely despite their errors;
  3. To provide humanity with the possibility of receiving His Seal (Rv 3:10-12, 14:1-5) by reciting the consecration prayer He has dictated. The aim of consecration is to become the ‘personal property’ of the Heavenly Father (Rv 2:17, 3:9-13, 14:1), thus returning to live in His Divine Will. According to the Father’s promise, the purpose of the Seal is to annul the name, number, or mark of the beast (Rv 13:11-18, 14:1-5), and to obtain the graces necessary to spiritually withstand Satan’s attacks and those of his agents throughout the Chastisement  (Dn 7:25, 8:3-14, 8:24-25, 9:25-27, 12:6-11; Jl 1:2-20, 2:1-27, 3:1-5, 4:1-21; 2 P 3:7; Rv 2:10-11, 3:10, 6:5-17, 7:1-17, 8:1-5, 9:1-21, 11:7-10, 12:7-17, 13:1-18, 14:6-20, 16:17-21, 18:9-23, 20:1-6; Zech 14:1-21; Zeph 1:2-18, 2:1-15, 3:1-20);
  4. To provide reparation and console God the Father for the unremitting blasphemies carried out against His Divine Heart;
  5. To institute weekly cenacles to the Father’s Heart. According to His promise, whoever participates regularly in the cenacles will receive all the graces needed, to habitually live in His Divine Will;
  6. To emphasize the need for reunification between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church through the icon, which is intentionally ecumenical in nature (message of 9/5/2011, unpublished communication); and
  7. To decrease the Father’s wrath and increase His mercy toward humanity by means of adoration, veneration, and worship. This would lessen the pains of the Chastisement and facilitate humanity’s entrance into the New Israel (Dn 7:25, 8:3-14, 8:24-25, 9:25-27, 12:6-11; Is 24:16-25, 25:6-12; Jl 1:2-20, 2:1-27, 3:1-5, 4:1-21; 2 P 3:7; Rv 2:10-11, 3:10, 6:5-17, 7:1-17, 8:1-5, 9:1-21, 11:7-10, 12:7-17, 13:1-18, 14:6-20, 16:17-21, 18:9-23, 20:1-6; Zech 14:1-21; Zeph 1:2-18, 2:1-15, 3:1-20).
