Catholic Prayers To The Saints
The Catholic Church is full of saints who can help you in your spiritual journey. In fact, many Catholics have a special devotion to one or more of these holy people
So if you’re looking for some inspiration from our heavenly friends, here are some prayers they might want to hear from you:
The Prayer to Saint Joseph.
Prayer is a powerful and rewarding tool that Catholics have been using for centuries. Prayer is not only a way of communicating with God, but also the most effective way to communicate with your heavenly father and ask for help in times of need. When you pray, you are asking God for guidance and strength, as well as asking forgiveness for your sins.
The Saint Joseph prayer is one of the most popular Catholic prayers there is because it focuses on thanking God for all his blessings and asks him to bless those who read it. This prayer can be used as part of an everyday devotional practice or before bedtime every night. It can even be used when one feels alone or lost during difficult times in life; praying this prayer will help alleviate any anxiety or fear that may come from feeling helplessly stuck in place where there isn’t much hope left anymore!
Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel: Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel: Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our defense against all adversities and principalities who bring about harm and damage to our souls. Come to the aid of everyone who believes in you and implores your help against the wickedness of Satan and all his minions. For you are a mighty defender of God’s children, who have no other recourse than to call upon you as their mediator, guide and protector on earth;
Amen.
Prayer to St. Cecilia: O glorious St. Cecilia, who didst persevere with such heroic virtues and didst suffer martyrdom for the love of Jesus, whom thou didst most ardently love and for whose sake thou didst consecrate thy virginity, look upon me with merciful eyes and grant that I may imitate thy fidelity unto death and thus be admitted to partake of thy glory in Heaven where thou rejoicest eternally in the presence of God.
St. Cecilia is one of the most popular saints in history, and there are a number of reasons why that is so. She was a martyr who suffered death for her faith. In addition to this, though, she was also a virgin and had given up all earthly things to dedicate herself completely to God. Through her piety, humility and devotion she gained great sanctity in life and after death became the patron saint of music and musicians as well as singers in particular.
You may know people who are musicians or singers—or perhaps you are yourself—that might find it helpful to pray for St Cecilia’s intercession when they perform at concerts or on stage performing as soloists or with choirs or bands. There are also many parishes throughout the world dedicated to St Cecilia where people gather together regularly for Masses dedicated solely to her honor; if you would like more information about these places then please contact us at info@catholicprayersguide.com
A Prayer to St. Anthony
St. Anthony is the patron saint of a variety of things, but he’s especially well-known as the go-to guy for finding lost items. If you’ve misplaced something, head to his shrine and ask him to help you find it. You can also pray to St. Anthony if you need assistance with other life tasks: finding a spouse or partner, getting a job, moving into a new home or apartment—whatever it is that will make your life easier!
A Prayer to St. Jude
A Prayer to St. Jude
St. Jude, who was a brother of St. James the Lesser and St. Simon, is the patron saint of hopeless causes and difficult situations (as well as lost objects). He is also known as ‘the apostle of hope’, because he never lost faith no matter how dire things seemed to be, which made him an excellent helper for people in need of inspiration or courage during difficult times when nothing seems to be going right for them. The story about how he was martyred shows us why we turn to this saint asking for assistance: during his lifetime on earth, Jude traveled around preaching the Gospel with his two brothers but was later imprisoned by King Herod Agrippa I because they were proselytizing too much and upsetting local religious authorities; eventually Agrippa had all three men flogged until they died from their injuries—but rather than keeling over immediately like many would have done under similar circumstances (especially if they were only teenagers at the time), these martyrs remained strong until their last breath!
If you’re having difficulty overcoming obstacles that would normally defeat other people then consider invoking Saint Jude’s help first by praying this prayer often – it won’t fail you!
St. Anthony’s Bread is granted unto all those who ask for it with faith, confidence and devotion. O glorious St. Anthony, by your intercession I shall obtain from God all that I desire! Oh, Lord, grant me the grace of (here state your intention). Amen
- St. Anthony’s Bread is a prayer for assistance. It’s sometimes called the Prayer of Charity, but it’s also known as the Prayer to St. Anthony of Padua, patron saint of lost things and those who seek for help.
- You can ask for assistance with anything personal or professional; you can request help for yourself or someone else in need. The only limit to this prayer is your imagination.
- You may also choose to use this prayer if you want to ask God for a specific intention that you have in mind, such as finding work or healing from an illness or injury – even something more mundane like finding your keys!
