Day 9 of The 39th Anniversary Novena to Our Lady The Queen of Peace

9th day: We pray for the Intentions of the Queen of Peace
Mary has asked us again and again to pray, pray, pray… pray until it becomes a joy to you. Make Mass the center of your life. Pray with the heart especially the Mass, the Rosary, and Scriptures, fast twice a week, and to convert by confessing once a month. 

She also asks us to pray especially for these following intentions: for Peace, for our shepherds, for families, young people, the sick and suffering, the poor souls in purgatory, and for those who have not yet come to know the love of God.
May we take her messages and requests to heart so that her intentions be realized and praise God for sending His Mother to us daily for 39 years!!!

1. Prayer to the Queen of Peace  
Mary, Mother of God and Our Mother, Queen of Peace!
You came to us to lead us to God.
Obtain for us the grace not only to say:
“Be it done to me according to Your will!”, but to live it, as You did.
Into
Your hands we put our hands, so that You may lead us to Him amidst
these afflictions and woes. Through Christ, our Lord. Amen. 
2. Veni Creator Spiritus 
Experience adoration and the singing of Veni Sancte Spiritus in Medjugorje 

Come Holy Spirit, Creator, come

best gift of God above,

the living spring, the living fire,

sweet unction and true love.

Thou Who are called the Paraclete,

from Thy bright heavenly throne,

come, take possession of our souls,

and make them all Thine own.

Thou who are sevenfold in Thy grace,

finger of God’s right hand,

His promise, teaching little ones

to speak and understand.

O guide our minds with Thy blest light,

with love our hearts inflame;

and with Thy strength, which never decays,

confirm our mortal frame.

Far from us drive our deadly foe,

true peace unto us bring,

and through all perils lead us safe

beneath Thy sacred wing.

Through Thee may we the Father know,

through Thee the eternal Son,

and Thee the Spirit of them both,

thrice-blessed Three in One.

All glory to the Father be,

with his co-equal Son:

the same to Thee, great Paraclete,

while endless ages run. Amen.

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful, and enkindle in them the fire of Your love.
– Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created.

– And You shall renew the face of the earth.

Let us pray: God, who taught the hearts of the faithful by the light
of the Holy Spirit, grant that by the gift of the same Spirit we may be
always truly wise and ever rejoice in His consolation. Through Christ
our Lord. Amen.

Texts for Meditation
SCRIPTURE
At
that time Jesus said: “Father, they are your gift to me. I wish that where
I am they also may be with me, that they may see my glory that you gave me,
because you loved me before the foundation of the world. Righteous Father, the
world also does not know you, but I know you, and they know that you sent me. I
made known to them your name and I will make it known, that the love with which
you loved me may be in them and I in them.”
(Jn 17,24-26)


MESSAGE FROM HEAVEN
“Dear
children! Today I thank you and I want to invite you all to God’s peace. I want
each one of you to experience in your heart that peace which God gives. I want
to bless you all today. I am blessing you with God’s blessing and I beseech
you, dear children, to follow and to live my way. I love you, dear children,
and so not even counting the number of times, I go on calling you and I thank
you for all that you are doing for my intentions. I beg you, help me to present
you to God and to save you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

(Message, June 25, 1987)


CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
Mary’s
prayer is revealed to us at the dawning of the fullness of time. Before the
incarnation of the Son of God, and before the outpouring of the Holy Spirit,
her prayer cooperates in a unique way with the Father’s plan of loving
kindness: at the Annunciation, for Christ’s conception; at Pentecost, for the
formation of the Church, his Body. In the faith of his humble handmaid, the
Gift of God found the acceptance he had awaited from the beginning of time. She
whom the Almighty made “full of grace” responds by offering her whole
being: “Behold I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be [done] to me
according to your word.” “Fiat”: this is Christian prayer: to be
wholly God’s, because he is wholly ours.
(2617)

4. The Litany of the Blessed Virgin

Concluding prayer: 
We
thank You, O Father, for the gift of prayer which allows us to touch Your
heart; prayer in which You give Yourself entirely to us and in which You teach
us to give ourselves entirely to You. We pray today for all intentions of the
Queen of Peace and for all that is necessary so that the whole world, through
Mary, may enter into Your glory, the glory of the Most Holy Trinity. Amen.

We come to you, dearest Mother,

we give to you solemn promise

to be better than we have been.
