Questionable Promises for these Prayers

[Eduardo06sp]

There is this Saint Michael chaplet that’s short and comes with extraordinary promises if recited daily. Also, there is a chaplet of Protection and Liberation that’s short with amazing promises as well.

St. Michael promises (made by Virgin Mary):

1. Special defense from him in these end times.
2. Those who pray this devoutly will not be deceived by false prophets.
3. You’ll be fortified in moments of temptation. St. Michael will be looking out for you and will prevent that you fall into mortal sin.
4. If you pray this devoutly, you will be covered by Michael’s cape and the enemy will not be able to touch or material and spiritual goods.
5. Whoever has prayed this daily, will have Michael the Archangel by their side at the moment of their death to be presented to Jesus and Mary.

And it says here that this chaplet, combined with the chaplet of Protection and Liberation, will prevent satan and his followers from getting near your soul.

I received this from a faithful Catholic. The fifth promise seems as if it insures salvation if you pray the chaplet.
Should I stop praying these chaplets?

The way it sounds to me is that when we persevere in prayer daily, the Lord helps us with His generous grace.

If I were you I wouldn’t stop praying the chaplet.

There are some novena’s that people have said they will “never fail”. Now, we know God never fails when we ask him for His grace. However, that can mislead some people to think that if their prayer is not answered according to their will (not God’s), then the promise is not true. I would still pray that novena if I was led to, but I would be aware that it is God’s decision how the prayer is answered. Trust!

Are you referring to The Chaplet of St. Michael that Mother Angelica recites every morning on EWTN ? Are the “promises” connected to it, or to the other Chaplet you refer to?

I have no idea where these purported promises come from, but none of them seem particularly extreme to me. Number five certainly does not promise salvation.

    The Chaplet of St. Michael is an approved prayer of the Catholic Church.  Pray the Rosary before the Chaplet of St. Michael.   I believe you should take these posts to heart:

I concur with these posts. I believe the OP is confused.

Well I have a different prayer than the official Chaplet of Saint Michael. It’s in Spanish but I’m trying:
Repeat the following nine times:
In the counts of Our Father: “Angel of the end times, Angel defeater of the antichrist, Angel of the last judgment, defend me with your sword, cover me with your shield, and penetrate my soul with the clarity of your light.”
In the counts of Hail Mary (three times): “Powerful prince of the army of God, depart my spirit from earthly things and raise it to the contemplation of Heavenly wisdom.”
Instead of Glory Be: "Saint Michael, support of those who fight under the banner of the Cross. Pray for us.

After finishing the Chaplet (three times): "Brave Warrior of the Most High. Unify me with the triumph of the Sacred Hearts.

Here is the Chaplet of Protection and Liberation that’s prayed with a Rosary (I’m trying to translate from Spanish again):
Instead of the Our Father: "Most pure Ave Maria, without conceived sin, daughter of Saint Joaquin and Saint Ana, Blessed Mary.
Instead of the Hail Mary (10 times): “Who is like God? No one is like God.”
Instead of the Glory Be: “Flee evil powers. Conquered by Christ the Lord.”

After finishing the Chaplet, repeat three times: “Triumphant Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Reign in my life and in my heart. Amen.”

It says here that you should pray this Chaplet in times of temptation or when you feel dominated by the enemy.

Promise for this one:
Whoever prays this with a faithful spirit, they will be wrapped under the folds of my Sacred Mantle and will be covered and protected under the cape of Saint Michael Archangel.
Time of desolation, 1260 days in which you will feel my maternal and protection under the Angel warrior.

What does the last promise mean here?

I wonder where these originated from? Both are nice Chaplets.

Thank you for the translation and for sharing.

Don’t know what the 1260 days of desolation are referring to.

There is a passage from the Old Testament about end times and refers to a period of desolation lasting around 3 years or something

“Blessed is he who outlives these 3 years”

very profound

Book of Daniel?

You’re welcome! It says that it comes from the revelations of a soul who Jesus calls Agustin of the Divine Heart. (Agustin del Divino Corazón)

I couldn’t find this in the Bible. :-
