The Chaplet of The Divine Mercy Novena
Sixth Day:
Today bring to Me THE MEEK AND HUMBLE SOULS AND THE SOULS OF
LITTLE CHILDREN, and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely
resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as
earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole
torrents of grace. Only the humble soul is capable of receiving My grace. I
favor humble souls with My confidence.
Most Merciful Jesus, You yourself have said, "Learn from Me for I am meek and humble of heart." Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father's favorites. They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of love and mercy.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls, and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne. Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these souls and by the delight You take in them: Bless the whole world, that all souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages. Amen.

Seventh Day:
Today bring to Me THE
SOULS WHO ESPECIALLY VENERATE AND GLORIFY MY MERCY,* and immerse them in
My mercy. These souls sorrowed most over my Passion and entered most deeply
into My spirit. They are living images of My Compassionate Heart. These souls
will shine with a special brightness in the next life. Not one of them
will go into the fire of
hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them
at the hour of death.
Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly extol and venerate the greatness of Your mercy. These souls are mighty with the very power of God Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go forward, confident of Your mercy; and united to You, O Jesus, they carry all mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your mercy will embrace them as they depart from this life.
Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and who are enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living Gospel; their hands are full of deeds of mercy, and their hearts, overflowing with joy, sing a canticle of mercy to You, O Most High! I beg You O God:
Show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in You. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, who said to them that during their life, but especially at the hour of death, the souls who will venerate this fathomless mercy of His, He, Himself, will defend as His glory. Amen.

*The text leads one to conclude
that in the first prayer
directed to Jesus, Who is the Redeemer, it is "victim" souls and
contemplatives that are being prayed for; those persons, that is, that
voluntarily offered themselves to God for the salvation of their neighbor (see
Col 1:24; 2 Cor 4:12).
This explains their close union with the Savior and the extraordinary efficacy
that their invisible activity has for others. In the second prayer, directed to
the Father from whom comes "every worthwhile gift and every genuine
benefit," we recommend the "active" souls, who promote devotion
to The Divine Mercy and exercise with it all the other works that lend
themselves to the spiritual and material uplifting of their brethren.
