  1. I want to praise and thank the Holy Spirit for graces and blessings granted. I self-published my first book “Praying the Scriptures” about 10 months ago and have found it very difficult to get it sold. I asked the Holy Spirit to guide me and today I made contact with Catechists and sold 10 books with the possibility of selling more and also giving a retreat on the book to teachers. I am not known in this area so this has been a wonderful breakthrough.

    I also asked for guidance while finishing my second book on “Models for life from the Scriptures” and that too has been blessed.

    I have also been approached to facilitate RCIA in the parish but have with the Spirit’s guidance chosen at this time in my life to spread God’s Word through writing. I am 74 years old and need to leave a gap so that others will take over.

    Blessings and thank you for all the prayers.

  2. Thank you Holy Spirit for the recent financial prayers answered. I continue to pray for an increase of my financial help.

And pray my family be blessed with good health, peace, joy love and the holy spirit. And peace in our world. In Jesus Name. Amen

This particular night was a very difficult night, but before I had taken a Xanax to help calm my nerves ,I meditated deeply in prayer to speak with my grandchildren. The following morning on the drive in to work at sunrise three of the most beautiful rainbows appeared in the distance. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for the signs you provide me. 🙏🙏🙏

  30. I have asked for inspiration for a talk I am giving on Theology if the Body to a young adult group the Tuesday after Pentecost. I had no clue what I was going to write about and was a little worried but was trying to trust the Holy Spirit. On Wednesday, I went to Adoration to pray with no intention of writing the talk and the Holy Spirit worked in me and through my typical prayer – journaling.
    The talk poured out of me in a beautiful way where I was just sharing my thoughts with the Lord.
    When I was finished, I had a beautiful sense of wonder and awe at what the Holy Spirit had done.
    I also realized the fruit of the day was faith, and so the Lord was showing me how much beauty he can bring when we have faith. It was a reminder to continue to trust him in all things and to surrender everything to him.

  31. I know more is to come but already miraculously, a large sum of money I have been chasing for 9 months finally came as a check this week. I’ll cash it in on pentecostal Sunday as a thanksgiving for our God! Financial difficulties are still here but I know we will finally get our break through, Amen!!!!

  34. Thank you Holy Spirit for the answered prayer, my children help me with my financial needs, in a few months I will be in good track financially.
    Some of my prayers are not been answered yet but I believe the Holy Spirit is blessing me and my children and the miracle are on its way for us. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

  35. Dear Holy spirit,
    Please keep my family and my marriage in your healing spirit. Holy spirit please keep all expectant mothers to be held in highest regard.

  36. Asking for prayers that their cancer and other illnesses will be healed. In the name of Jesus. Thank you.

  37. My husband’s heart has softened… not yet healed… but our relationship is in a much better place now than a week ago. +JMJ+

  38. First of all I want to thank you both for all you do. My husband and I right now were in Italy…pilgrims… We pray daily for guidance and strength to the Lord and the Holy Spirit..and we had guidance daily. I want to tell all of who read this post that without FAITH we are nothing. My trip to Italy..was mostly pilgrimage…we’ve been doing pilgrimages since 2014 when I was getting better in order to travel. In 2012 I was diagnosed with NH Lymphoma which left me disabled due to toxic treatments. Well, the disease for me was a Blessing ( also a slap on my face to wake up completely). I was never in church..or pray or even acknowledge God for all his Glory and goodness that I was receiving daily.
    I was healed from Cancer within 1 and a half chemo…which IS IMPOSSIBLE.
    THE LORD HEALED ME HE HEARD MY CRY AT NIGHT WHEN I HAD NO OTHER WAY TO TURN …
    I was given another chance to live and spread the word..which I do it daily from last 7 years.
    Today June 8 I was in Forli to thank in person for all his interseccion for me and the ones who knows him…St Peregrine Laziosi..Saint Patron of Cancer.
    I pray daily for the whole world that they may wake up from darkness ( As I was)..and REPENT now when is not to late.
    Our Lord is waiting for each individual and he his very, very patient..lovable and understanding.
    May God, Mother Mary in the name of our Savior Jesus and the Holy Spirit may Bless you ALL!!

  39. My daughter realizes she needs to give up her marijuana habit. Now, we have to pray for her to have the strength and resources for that to happen.

  40. All I can say is “God is Good!” Prayers were answered. He continues to hear and answer my prayers.

  41. My daughter finally went to the doctor at 7 months pregnant. Thank Jesus, Mary and the Holy Spirit. Thank you to all that prayed this novena. ❤️♥️

  43. We are moving to a new state and I was fearful of growing cold in my faith- our parish here is amazing and I feared I wouldn’t find the same spiritual support- elsewhere. So I prayed to the Holy Spirit to find us a house close to a good church. The first day of the Novena we bought a house WALKING distance to a church that is amazing too! 60 ministries, great priests etc… but since our God is a God of generosity- this new house also has a “mother-in-law suite” which my father-in-law will be using after his surgery. He really looks after All of Us.

  44. Alleluia for prayers answered. A good work resolution and review for our son. Continued prayers for a return to making faith and continued healing of emotional and physical health issues. Amen!

  45. I’m sorry but I don’t have good news to share. I have been praying the novenas for more than a year for one healthy baby for my son and daughter in law. I thought my prayers were answered in April but we now know our baby is critically ill and will not survive. I’m struggling to try to understand the cruelty of this. My heart is broken.

  46. That all my children will know and follow the Lord. For my marriage to reflect God’s love. For our finances. For my parish to experience a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit. For healing for Father Jerry.

  47. Please am still asking the Holy Spirit to help me in the exam that I took . I desperately need to pass this exams. This is the 3rd time am taking this exams. Please Holy Spirit my advocate i need in Jesus name amen

  48. Thank you my Jesus for all blessings Yesterday my son AM told me that the doctor told him that he is 98% cancer free. He had surgery in March and is still taking chemo pills. However, he is much better. He’s due to have another surgery by year end to reverse the procedure in order to remove the oleostomy bag. Prayerfully he won’t need it for the rest of his life. Thank you Lord and all prayer warriors

  49. My baby grandson had a successful appointment with his cardiologist and his heart continue to be healed by the power of the Holy Spirit; he is off the meds.
    Thank you Holy Spirit and thank you to all that pray for others intentions

Thank you God for blessing my sister health to be go no sign of cancer, thank you for blessing my niece with her new job doing exactly what she wants to do, thank you blessing my friend who has been working for a year with out pay to receive the huge contract she has been working for and can now pay herself, and thank you for blessing me on my two jobs for I am so very grateful for them both.

    Amen

  57. Praise be to God—I give you thanks for softening my son’s heart. He had been disrespectful to me and after trying so hard to be in good relations with him for years, to no avail, I had to stop communicating with him. After 7 months, my daughter-in-law contacted me yesterday and invited me to my grandsons BD party. This is a first step and I am so happy that they reached out. Holy Spirit, continue to heal this relationship so we will love, respect, and have patience for each other. 🙏🙏

  58. For the best possible discharge plan by Monday, for SML, a stroke victim with a history of unmedicated (by choice) mental illness.

  59. A new respect for the workings of the holy spirit. Anew understanding of the role that He takes within the most Holy Trinity. I am once again full of His Spirit.
    A renewed relationship with my daughter. If only for a moment. I am blessed with the knowledge that she IS still there.

  60. I never had a job since I graduated college (graduated in 2016) and last Thursday, I received good news! I got my first job at the company that was my first choice and applied for. The process was smooth and took a month to receive the offer. Thank you, Lord for this wonderful blessing, lifting me up, and giving me strength and courage with my everyday battles especially the times when I almost want to quit, and the times of doubt and didn’t believe in myself. Amen!

  61. Reading these answered prayers, even when the answer is “not now”, is almost the best part of this novena!
    I offered mine only for one son who is alone, unhealthy & financially struggling. I asked the Holy Spirit to give him direction, guidance, and the ability to act upon it. (He has already had a major miracle so I know God has a special plan.) His is now making positive changes! I will continue praying and thank all those praying together for us! May we be granted peace and truly feel His love!

  62. Not yet, But I know God loves us and is working on it. All shall be as it is meant to be.

    Thank you, Father

May it be a respectful, humble, grateful and happy marriage. May Gods grace be with her stronger after sending this request and for all eternity.

  66. Praise God that my sister is responding well to her cancer treatments. We’re continuing prayer to pay for it.
