Prayer to the Virgin Mary (never known to fail)
Oh most beautiful flower of Mt. Carmel, fruit wine splenderous of
Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist
me in my necessity. Oh Star of the Sea. Help me and show me herein
you are my Mother. Oh Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven
and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to
succour me in my necessity.
There is none that can withstand your power. Oh show me here you
are my Mother. Oh Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have
recourse to Thee (3 times). Thank you for mercy towards me and
mine. Amen. This prayer must be said for 3 consecutive days and after
that the request will be granted and the prayer must be published.
 
It is a beautiful prayers, but we need to keep in mind to make claims such as that the prayer will be granted for three consecutive days, and that it must be published is superstition.

I believe you are promoting this prayer from a good intention. I just needed to share what I heard from many priests about adding superstitious practices to many beautiful prayers.

God hears all our prayers, whether he answers them according to what we want or not. If we pray with humility “may Your will be done”, then we learn to trust Him in all things.
 
Kneel in front of the tabernacle at your parish church.

Say this word: “Help”

And then bow and leave.
 
Prayers have been known to fail.

If you pray for something that is contrary to God’s will, you will not get it. Period.

If you pray for something that is not in God’s will, you will not get it. Period.

No matter how good it is.

No matter how much you want it.

No matter how much you pray for it.

No matter if you make 20 tons of promises.

No matter if you beg, scream, whine, whatever.

If God does not will it, it is not granted.
 
This prayers always in the local paper. Im going to make it happen this time tho.
 
The last sentence of the OP is blasphemous superstition.

The definition of superstition is the sense that one can manipulate the supernatural world to do YOUR will by following some sort of magic formula.

God is not your servant, you are his. It helps to remember that. He’s not obligated to give you what you ask for regardless of your prayer formula.
 
Prayer To The Blessed Virgin
This is a novena to the Blessed Virgin. Say this prayer 3 times a day for 3 consecutive days and your prayers will be answered. You must promise to publish it.
Say this 3 times during each prayer:

O Most Beautiful Flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful vine, splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. O Star of the Sea, help me and show me here you are my mother. O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to secure me in my necessity, (YOUR REQUEST). There are none that can withstand your power. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands.

After each prayer say 9 Hail Mary’s.

You must publish it and it will be granted to you.

Please mother hear and answer all my prayers. <3
 
Hi Lizzie,

Again, I must repeat: It is a beautiful prayer, but it is not necessary to add the requisite to publish it and your prayer will be answered. Many priests have warned about spreading this kind of prayer, which is superstitous.

It is for our own good that we are taught this; please read the entire thread.
 
Oh yes it is… (known to fail). Asking for something not God’s will? In that case all these prayers should all carry a proviso:’ IF you ask for something that’s God’s will’. Then OF COURSE it won’t fail, so then there’s nothing remarkable about it not failing.
All very difficult to fathom once you start thinking about it.
 
Say this prayer for 3 consecutive days and then click here to pass it on to 3 more people.

Oh, most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful vine, splendor of Heaven.

Oh, Blessed Mother of the Son of God; Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity.

Oh, Star of the Sea, help me and show me you are my Mother.

Oh, Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity.

(Mention your request here)

There are none that can withstand your power.

Oh, Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. (say three times).

Holy Mary, I place this prayer in your hands. (say three times).

Amen.
 
Say this prayer for 100 days without missing even a day. If you do miss a day, start back again as soon as you can. Or you can say it on any other schedule you wish.

Dear Lord, I surrender my will to You, and I trust you to guide me on right paths. Please hear my prayers of thanksgiving and praise for You. I want to be the clay in Your loving hands, so that You may mold me into what you want me to be. Please give me a loving and discerning heart so that I may follow you best. Through Jesus our Lord, Amen.

It’s easy to make up a prayer that will never see failure. All you have to do is ask for stuff you know the Lord wants you to have. 😉

Thank you Blessed Mother for praying for me and always helping me in my time of need. I love you!

I like the Memorare:

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection,
implored your help, or sought your intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired with this confidence,
I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To you I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in your mercy, hear and answer me.
Amen.

Now hang on a minute. Slow down and hit the brakes all of you!!!

I agree, God does His will, not ours, and it’s important to remember that. All such prayers that have guaranteed success rates are often blown out of proportion. God hears all our prayers and he doesn’t let any of them slip away.

But, why are people completely dismissing the ideas behind praying specifically to Jesus, Mary or the Saints? Going by the above logic, we should always just pray to God for His will and be on our way. That’s wrong!

Take the rosary for example. It’s a dedication to Mary and Jesus and their sorrowful hearts. It’s a special request for mercy and forgiveness at their hands. We will attain it if we pray it!

My point is that not every prayer request can necessarily be against God’s will. There’s a good chance asking to win the lottery is against His will, but what if we ask for assistance in our careers, or in our studies? What if we ask Him to forgive those who curse us? What if we ask Him to forgive us? There’s a good chance he’l grant us his intercession which would have otherwise not been as noticeably present if we didn’t pray for them.

What about Saint Anthony and the ‘superstition’ that praying to him helps us find lost items? I’ve prayed for on a very quick basis for that cause many times, and lo and behold I found the item in very good time, sometimes even within minutes after previously searching in vein.

Another example is praying for the departed souls in Purgatory. Many believe that praying for them, as per their request, also causes them to pray for us and perhaps even intercede in small occurrences. I too had good success with this; I prayed that my tax problems and fines would go away and not financially burden me, and it worked itself out better than I ever thought it would!

Jesus himself says so in the Bible that we should pray consistently, lest God be like the friend who has already put his children in bed and thus kindly refuses to grant our request. If we keep persistently asking, we shall receive.

I just think that people were being too hard on the topic. No, there is no special formula or action that you can do to assure your prayer is answered, but these superstitions often have good origins, and if we pray them in good heart I’m sure they’l help where and as much as they can. They won’t change our lives dramatically but they’l certainly offer quick remedies if possible.
 
If you pray right, all this non-answer stuff goes away…

[BIBLEDRB]mark 11:24[/BIBLEDRB]

Sounds pretty straightforward to me. Prayers come true based on our belief when praying, along with the other conditions of course such as not having anything against a brother or sister. So perhaps a certain level of spiritual maturity and serenity etc. are presupposed here?

Still, note that it says “all things” you ask for, and nothing about God second-guessing the prayer.

God will only do his Will. Not ours. No matter how much we ask.

Sure, ask for whatever you want. If it aligns with God’s will, the answer is yes.
If it is not in God’s will, game over.

You found the item because it was God’s will that you found it.

So if we keep persistently praying, we can overrule God’s will and impose our own on him.

Nope. Doesn’t work that way.
 
I’m a relatively new Carmelite and I haven’t heard of the Flos Carmeli (the prayer OP listed) being used in such a superstitious way. Too bad.

Along this line…I’ve got a problem with the vending machine mentality of praying: insert X prayer Y number of times into God’s ear and Z will happen. This happens with the St. Gertrude Prayer - say it once and 1,000 souls supposedly get out of Purgatory. I like this prayer and say it often but I don’t assume that 5 people repeating the prayer 5 times means that 25,000 folks get to Heaven just like that.
