I stumbled upon this video accidentally. I am Protestant. I had to go to court and all my catholic friends accompanied me that morning, we arrived early and all my friends sprinkled holy water on the seats in the courtroom, I was perplexed and wondered what they were doing. The judge ruled in my favor. I’m a survivor of domestic violence. 🙏

5:22❤❤❤ praise God for ur safety. I was married to a abuser so I have a idea what u went thru. I will pray for u
Hello father. Many years ago I bought a small bottle of holy water imma Come My Lady of Fatima. It's probably about 10 years old it's only a very small bottle but every time I use it it automatically fills up I have never run average of holy water. I know that's not much but to me it's a miracle. I've been blessed so many times but that old water. Praise God. Amen❤❤❤
I hope that convinced you to become a Catholic; since God proved to you, that Catholics are the true church and he got you out of that mess by sending over your Catholic friends with the Holy Water 💧. Believe me without that Holy Water you would have lost that case. Long live the King Jesus Christ and Saint always Virgin Mary, Amen🙏
I was married to a female abuser. She hit me then called police and said I hit her. I'm going to trial
After surviving cancer and I found out I was pregnant and was told by a geneticist to abort. I carried to term but my son was diagnosed as significantly visually impaired with no hope of sight. I put holy oil on his eye lids and the pediatric ophthalmologist said that his eyes improved significantly but couldn’t explain how he regained his sight. I believe that it was most definitely the holy oil. Thanks be to God!
Praise God🙏🏻🌹❤️ What a beautiful, miraculous story!! God Bless both of you🙏🏻🌹❤️
Praise GOD!
Blessed!
Praise be to God. May the Heart of Jesus, in the most Blessed Sacrament, be praised, adored and loved; with grateful affection, in all the tabernacles of the world. Even to the end of time. Amen
Praise and thanks be to GOD!!!
My daughter found out she had cervical cancer the day her father passed from cancer.
My son brought over some holy water from Lourds he recueved from a Deacon who went to Lourdes to pray that he would be healed from cancer, who was told he was in stage 4.
He drank gallons of Holy water and said My daughter should drink if this same Holy water that the Deacon brought back with him. Happy to say both have been cured from the cancer and it has never returned.
It's been 10 yrs years 🙏🙏
Best wishes hope all stay well.
Wow
I wonder if they'd continued with their conventional medical treatments?
I'm extremely happy your daughter is well now and the Deacon as well. But there must be thousands of people who didn't get healed, went to Lourdes themselves, kept drinking the water and nothing happened. Amongst them are children.
We were praying for my husband, many people were praying for him, tirelessly, every day begging God for help, amongst them even nurses and doctors(!) and my husband had made a recovery, only to get hospital acquired pneumonia and die of it. We cared for him at home day and night, he was surrounded by pictures of saints and he wore the rosary on his neck and he was taken away from us!
We were given Holly water and oils and rosary was blessed by the Pope and given to us by the missionaries; there were masses held in church for my husband's recovery and it breaks my heart God wasn't generous enough to allow me to have my wonderful husband, best in the world daddy.
What parents of little children must feel? I think I know .😢😢😢
@@E-Kat no need to
I am catholic and was always used to praying until one time i became very sick mentally and physically my mother educated me on the annointing oil , as soon as the priest touched my forehead with the oil i started bursting out with tears , like a shake in my body , mind you i dont cry easily in front of others well . I have faith and belief that the holy spirit came and healed me . I love you God , in the name of the father son and holy spirit Amen .
Such a wonderful experience...a testament of God's omnipotence laid down for generations to make use of particularly anointing of His blessing and grace .
I am not Catholic but have always admired Catholicism, the solemnity, the beauty of the architecture, the presence of God is there undoubtedly.
That would be the holy spirits presence. I receive it often after deep prayer.
I spray Holy water throughout my office each morning prior to seeing my patients. The intention is to dedicate the space and my work to the Lord and invite the Holy Spirit into the space to help make it sacred for the Lord's work.
Thank you for inviting God into your patient care. Your patients are certainly blessed by your healing hands and your spiritual gift of healing.
@@katiedid8192 So very kind of you to say. Blessings to you and yours always and in ways. Doc
Your patients are so Blessed to have you❣️ May God continue to guide you in your work. Blessings to you & yours❣️😇

In May of 2010 I drew waters from Our Lady’s Grotto at Lourdes. My wife got sick with breast cancer it was bad. We used the cleansing water from the grotto to help battle the Type3 cancer. She’s coming up on her 12th year as a survivor. O lovely lady dressed in blue thank you. Ave Ave Ave Maria., thank you Lord.
Where is the church
That church ⛪ is on Lourdes, France 🇫🇷
@@CB-ps4eh question for all of us during these times. Lourdes France. Near the Spanish border in the Pyrenees. There is an entire Basilica on the grotto per Our lady’s request.
Oh ok. I know where it is. There is a church in nyc that had a copy of that with the grotta
Praise the Lord Jesus & Heavenly Mother
One day my nephew’s upper lip was swollen due to clogged salivary glands. Moved by compassion, I anointed his lip in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit using holy water. His lip swelling was gone in the evening. Thanks be to God. Alleluia.
This past year I have been putting Him Water on my cats head and kidneys...praying for healing of seizures and severe kidney failure. I noticed she was eating better and doing better ...I took her to the vet for annual check up. Doctor called back and said her kidney failure was gone!! I know Jesus came and healed her....I just cry because heaven helped this little creature 🙏❤️
YES, I STARTED PUTTING HOLY WATER ON MY PRECIOUS DOGS HEAD, ON FACE, AND SOME IN HIS WATER, ONLY NINE YEARS OLD, BUT VERY BIG AKITA DOG, BACK LEG GIVES OUT ON HIM, DO NOT WANT TO PUT HIM DOWN YET, PRAYING THE HOLY WATER WILL HELP MY PRECIOUS DOG!
@@galescott8433 Pray out loud everyday for healing. When I prayed I told Jesus I know this kitty has an animal soul not human but God made her and loves her. I felt that Jesus was with me placing his hands over her kidneys. I just knew something special had happened. I tell this story because do the Holy Water everyday with prayer and don't give up!! Jesus is listening and here to help.
I was wondering if I could do this. I bless my cats with the sign of the cross on their forehead when I'm praying but now I will use some holy water.
I was born in Hindu, now I'm converted Catholic and I'm very much proud and happy to be Catholic ❤️❤️❤️ Feels so much blessed I love being Catholic ❤️ I Love Jesus, Mary , Joseph and all Angels and Saints ❤️❤️❤️ Love You alll from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
I hve a font and use holy water frequently every day.
Welcome sister! 💕
I love you too God Bless!
You are a great inspiration. Thank you for leading me to appreciate our faith more.
Welcome. I love you!
When I met my husband he was an alcoholic and had no religious beliefs. I put holy water around his home and added a small amount of holy water in his water at dinner. He totally changed in several weeks. Quit drinking excessively and asked to be baptized! 🙏
Thank you for sharing 💖Amen
That is a miracle.🌹😇
Amen!
I love this topic of holy water I use it to sprinkle in my house learnt a lot of this topic proud to be Catholic
Thank u for sharing
I was in a car crash 10 years ago. A really bad one, I was thrown from the car and hit the road hard. The car behind stopped and sprinkled holy water on me. Let’s just say I didn’t walk about unscathed but I didn’t die and my head wasn’t injured for which I am so thankful for.
Thanks God
Praise be carry holy water just in case.
Never thought of doing that
These are so fun and informative to watch. Keep up the good work gents!
Glory toi God ! ! Hosanna in The Highest😅 🎉

I blessed a friend of mine about to go into surgery and the holy water landed where she was to have a tumor removed. Next day, the surgeon opened her up and found no tumor! Praise God.
Alleluia.
WHAT??
Tell my you lie without telling me your a liar
The tumor can't just dissappear mate.
@@localhappypotato6499 yes it can! Our father God can do anything. I’ve seen it happen.
My Mother taught us and always made a clear emphasis on why it was essential to make it a habit to always make the Sign of the Cross with Holy Water before we walked out the front door. And she would always say, "You never know what awaits you today. And you need God's protection throughout the day. And you never know if this is the last time you walk out the door and never return because it can be your last day on earth." God bless my Mother. It's been 20 yrs. of her passing. And I still have this beautiful & powerful habit that I exercise daily every time I walk out the front door. May God bless all parents that raise their children with a knowledge & love of God.
Beautiful!
So good to read your message ! So many parents are confused about the difference between sacramentals and superstitions. And were it all parents, like your Mother and my own, like our Catholic liturgy, reminded us all of our mortality. It is a great disservice to children to keep that reality from them, that this life has an end, but our lives go on. How can they make sense of anything without that mortal/eternal context within which to define life's most noble purposes? Amen Sister.
Amen🙏🙏🙏
reminds me of my mother...such a powerful and beautiful message.
God bless my mum Cecilia of blessed memory. She too taught me the use of holy water.God bless all Christian mothers.
One day, during the Saturday prayer service, as I was praying at the cross at Tabor Ashram in Kalyan, Mumbai, Jesus Christ spoke to me with tears in His eyes
and said, "People only think I have five wounds. But I have more than that. Look at the other wounds I have."
He then pulled down one hand from the cross on which He was nailed to, turned around and showed me the wounds on his back. "The soldiers have not just stripped me naked, but they have also beaten me very badly on my back and other parts of my body. I could not bear the beatings. What did I do to get such a severe punishment? They even spat on me. I committed no crime. But still they stripped me of my garments and beat me very badly. I bore this all for the sake of my people so that they may sin no more.
"But what do I see now? People are no longer interested in going for Mass, neither do they have time for the family rosary. They are going after false gods and money. They have no time for me.
"Tell my people to repent. Tell them to turn away from sin. Tell them to come back to me. I will forgive them."
Saying this, He stood still and went back on the cross on which He was nailed to.

Just makes want to cry! Our blessed Lord Jesus! Forgive us!
Good GOD have MERCY on me and all of us.. please work in us.. thru Mama Mary's most powerful intercession and Papa Joseph's fervent Prayers this I ask of YOU.. Amen 💝 🙏🏻
This podcast is phenomenal. I’m an Episcopalian thinking of converting to Catholicism, because the Episcopal Bishops (quietly) put out an official statement sanctioning medical sex changes of minor children, in the name of the transgender movement. So, I am currently homeless, in terms of church and learning about Catholicism, to see if it might be the place for me. I am grateful that the Catholic Church is standing strong against this movement, while most Protestant denominations are embracing it.
Thank you so much for your important ministry. 🙏🏼📿✝️
Considering it, makes you one of us. Welcome to the faith DoninieH
Wow. I didn’t know the Episcopalian leadership co-signed the craziness
Yes, come into the Catholic Church ❤
The crazier it gets the better the Truth of Christ looks. Look for a Traditional Latin Mass because we do an Asperges Holy Water at the start of mass
I was an Episcopalian and very happily have converted to the Catholic church and faith.
I sent my son to college with Holy Water. I blessed his room, and I gave him some to take with him. He used it, blessing his books before each semester. He used it on his friends struggling with depression and sadness when he sat with them. I was proud that he learned to use Holy Water in our home to strengthen his faith, the faith of others, and bringing the blessings of our Lord Jesus Christ to himself and to others.
Beautiful !🙏🙏🙏
Lovely
I'm building a house and the construction workers play loud hip hop rock and screemin' music. So after they go we cleanse the space with sacred music from Hildegard and or the Anonymous 4 . I really believe that it cleanses the space.....ummm you just gave me an idea....thanks
Great job mom💕💕🙏🙏
Awesome Praise the Lord!
Bring back holy water fonts in our churches!!!
@Andrea Phaup really? The church I go to has a font and our Cathedral has their font.
What Churches have removed their fonts and why?
I had no idea they had been taken out. I go to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC, and they (literally) have Holy Water on tap. I have vessels that I use to go there about once a year, to fill up! Wow!
AMEN!
It's back in our Church (Holy Apostles, Colorado Springs). Mask is also recommended but not mandatory.
And real candles.
My beloved autistic son at one time at home, grab a gallon of holly water and he drank it all. He didn’t know, he thought is was regular water, he drank the whole thing. He was innocent, may he rest in peace 😢 I miss him so much , he died 6 years ago, he was so special child, so innocent. He was 29 years old, but his mind was like a 9 year old.😢😢❤
Eastern Rite Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christians drink holy water. It was perfectly fine for your son to do that. May God console you, and may your son rest in peace, embraced forever in the arms of Jesus.
You will see him again on a very Glorious day, just as I will see my beloved grandson.
Bless him and your family.
Praying for him and for us all AMEN
So sorry for your loss may he rest in everlasting peace 🙏🙏
We have a holy water font by the hall to our garage, where we tend to go in and out of our house most frequently. My husband and I are in our early 60’s, and after being Protestant our entire lives, converted to Catholicism 4 years ago.
Welcome home!!!
Congratulations!!!!! Welcome back home.
Curious to know why you’d leave Protestantism.
Welcome home
There are many reasons why we converted from Protestantism. The biggest reason for me was after doing a lot of research, I discovered that Catholics continue to worship in the same way that the apostles and very first disciples worshipped. If you are going to worship God, doesn’t it make sense to do so in the ways the very first disciples, the ones who actually knew Jesus, worshipped?
My sister had brought me a bottle of Holy water blessed by JPII when he was in Colorado for World Youth Day. One day my 3year old daughter came in and said "I didn't drink it". I said " what didn't you drink?" she shows me the empty holy water bottle. Yes she did drink it. She was blessed inside and out! To this day 30 years later she is still following our faith unlike many of her generation.
Praise God!
I spray Holy Water over all the chairs prior to our prayer meetings. My prayer is whoever sits there will receive the Holy Spirit and know the Father’s Will. Praise God.
So true! As a sacramental holy water at home is a blessing and a protection against evil.
Every morning I stand in front of my crucifix on the wall and taking my little bottle of Holy Water I say, “with this Holy Water and with your precious blood, wash away all my sins, O Lord.” I then go on to sprinkle holy water on the souls in Purgatory, on babies born and unborn, on those who are suffering especially children and helpless elderly, the Church, and all God-fearing leaders. I have been doing this for years. I believe in the power of the Holy Water.
Back in the 30's or 40's my grandma fixed my grandpa good by cleaning out his whiskey bottle and refilling it with holy water. It was used for holy water ever since then for decades! It's now a family heirloom! I'm a big believer in the power of Holy Water and use it daily! Thank you for your shows!
Yes thank god for holy water every home should lt .
*“By this holy water and by thy Precious Blood wash away all my sins, O Lord.”*

Thank you for the reminder .🙏
A great saint and a mystic. She and John of the Cross drank from the Jewish mysticism.
Thank you for this! I'd forgotten about this prayer!
I'm following from Lebanon, Holy water, oil, and the Crucifix is part of our everyday day life in our Maronite Catholic faith. Faith moves mountains. 🙏🙏🙏
The Maronite Qurbono is stunning and beautiful and holy. Our Lady of Harissa pray for us!
God bless you dear
@@CatholicTalkShow pray for us and the whole world🙏. Btw, it's St. Maroun's Feast Day today, 9th Feb. St. Maroun keep us strong in our faith and on the path you paved that leads directly to our Lord 🙏

I just got my healing oil dedicated to St. Charbel.
I wish I could visit St. Charbel's tomb.
Just listening to this has given me peace. This is the third time this week that I have felt the answers to my prayers. I grew up LDS, and I am hoping to get baptized Catholic. Thank you for what you do. I found you after I have halo I listen twice a day.
Welcome home!
The Lord is faithful, come and experience his love and mercy.

My experienced during my younger years,i was a rebel daughter i took drugs and there is a point i experience halluciantion seeing demon but then i still believe in God that time i went to our altar and drink the holy water...and its true it was gone...I always bring Holy water with me...thank you Lord for saving me🙏its was my first time to tell this story...Have faith in God🥰❤
I used it to get a satanist out of my downstairs apt. My catholic friend got me a bunch and everyday i went down and just prayed and sprinkled water. Within a month he left. He looked terrified. I sprinkled it inside his apt and when he came back after another month the look on his face was priceless. He took one carload. Shaking the whole time. He couldn't get out fast enough. Thanks be to God.
Praise God!!
Alleluia 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Okay, but did you pray for him that he’d be freed?
“Oh Blood and water which flowed from the heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in you.”
It wouldn’t be a bad idea at all to pray this with a contrite heart and trust that Jesus would convert Him as He said He would for those whom it was prayed for.
@@Ian-dn6ld i did while he was living there but he is not in his right mind and does not want anything to do with God or His will. I do still pray for his eyes to be opened. However my peace is important also. I feel at peace now.
@@Ian-dn6ld , ty for this important prayer reminder. 🙏
I can't leave my house without using my holy water font. No matter how late I am for work I stop at my door to make the sign of the cross.
I didn’t know you could have holy water in your house. That’s knew on me, although I am new to the church and English I only started the RCIA programme a year ago.
we do too at home. I placed small bowl on the louvres in the front door enabling my children , husband and I to bless ourselves before leaving for work and school. We are blessed from Fiji. Try it. It's very powerful.
Amen!🙏
@@joshmanion8172 go get some!
@Ada Palacios That's a great practice. However, being late is not. :p
My parents always blessed us with holy water every night after we went to bed by sprinkling our beds in the sign of the cross. We always said the “Angel of God” also. Still do.
I received a little bottle of holy water from a friend. It was from the Vatican. I never opened it but I will before I go to bed tonight. I’m 90 years old. Growing up we always had the little font with holy water as we went into the kitchen. Thanks for the memory.
. jesus is the main central figure of bible,didn`t agree with me we have find a bible with his name,where does jesus talked about trinity.
💕🙏🏼 Blessings to you! 🕊️💕
As soon as Covid started and all churches stopped offering holy water, I took a 4Litre jug to our Priest and had him bless it. Our home fonts haven’t been with out Holy water. My children also have Holy water in their rooms to bless their rooms, them selves, to use during prayer and my youngest son especially uses it if he has nightmares. It’s been a real blessing. I highly suggest asking your Priest to bless water for your home and then offer him a thank you gift, donate to the church or invite him for dinner (depending on your cities Covid rules). ☺️♥️🙏💧
yes i get holy water from church too
My church offered it in a Holy Water tank in the front right of the nave, but fonts were empty. People saw me bringing in my little bottle (Father's personal bottle from Diving Mercy Shrine he gave me a few years back) and the other parishioners got smart after a few months to filling bottles at the tank and having their own on hand. Initially, I'd even stand at the back and offer it to people. LOL! Father was following the Bishop's orders, but it took a few months for people to get smart. NOW we have little bowls inside the big bowls in the back.
We bless watter every year for three Wisemen's day. And we come with bottle and gett blessed watter that our priest just blessed. In a big plastic (it looks like a big tub). And one woman came with canisters to fill them. The priest asked why does she needs so much holly watter she said she putts it in food when cooking. But the thing is that we usualy submerge our hand in the holly watter whilst poaring in our bottle. Now imagine how many hads were in that watter and she puts it in her food. The priest was staring at her.
Also my grandma had this little Saint Anthony statue with little dish on the bottom for holly watter and we keep it by the door. I have that statue now
I couldn't get any Holy Water since Covid started. I have been very disappointed.
@@jcsgodmother Have you called the parish priest? Call and see if he can get you some. Has to be some, somewhere.
Padre Pio asks to make a simple ritual every night in each room: First prayer of St Michael Archange second to split holy water in each corner ( North, South, Est, Ouest) split the holy water and say in the Name of the Father, to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. He asks us to do that every night because if our eyes can see the spirit world around us we are not alone. The Holy water will clean our house from bad spirits.
Where did you know about this?
What does split mean??? Makung the sign of the cross is one thing but what is split. That doesn't make sense to me

Lourdes Holy Water was mentioned. When I was a kid, my father drank all the time. From the time he was awake until well after bedtime. When he would pass out, I would take water that my Gandmother had from Lourdes and pour it in his mouth and ask St. Bernadette to intercede for us. It took years, but he did stop drinking and turned his life around.
Holy water is agood medicine
I always have Holy water in my suitcase when I travel so that I can spray Holy water in my hotel room to get rid of any negative/evil spirit lingering around. It really gives me peace of mind and comfort.
When my husband sick for 6 months I put holy water in his water to drink his medicine 🙏
These 3 guys make Catholicism fun and to be proud of this special gift of being Catholic
So sweet Marie. All Glory Be to God Most High!
Love this amazing information! God bless you all 🙏❤
Amazing , thankyou. God bless us always. Glory to God on High
Very informative and interesting. These are necessary weapons to fight evils.
YES! YES! YES!!!! they are AWESOME!
I’m blessed to be a Roman Catholic and practicing my faith through my Jesus Christ and the Church God Bless Our Church 🙏🏼✨💫💫
Hello to Members of the Panel, as a Catholic Maronite from Lebanon, being Sunday today, I'm glad I randomly chose to listen to your program. Your discussion on Holy Water was inspiring. Back here, we strongly believe in the blessings of the Holy Water. The idea of salt is related to our ancient pre-Christian traditions. We strongly believe in the Evil Eye (envy) & curses, it's meant to protect us from all evil. Now, I shall follow your programme closely. Thank you & God bless you!
Pray the Rosary!
Why.? Please explain.
Always
@@joycepogson7722 the Rosary is very powerful you will be protected always 1mystrey daily when you wake up
I was converted to Catholicism from Buddhism in 2006.
After confession before baptism at Easter. As I get out priest gave holy water and told me devil might attack. As I got out my throat was closing in like anaphylactic shock. There was no one in the parking lot. I got into car looked in the mirror.
Surely my throat was so swollen and difficulty swallowing. At that moment, I heard voice telling me to drink that water. So I did and my throat was instantly back to normal. I found out how powerful the holy water. Priests was exorcist. Also we had holy water that you can consume. So I got one gallon. We were moving every two years. I have been carrying with us. Holy water never spoiled when I also had plain water which was spoiled
You had to go to confession before baptism? I thought you don't have to
The priest told you the Devil might attack and you received reconciliation before baptism. I very much doubt your story.
My only sister told me that she received her calling to be a nun at the Grotto of Lourdes in Emmitsburg, MD. I love that place I actually feel like I'm in heaven. My sister now is a nun Irondale, Al. And she's so happy.
Thank you to all 4 of you! (Howard is a huge part!) I am finishing RCIA after being a none for 30 years. My son has had suicidal thoughts of late and my wife, who insists she is not converting, has asked me to bring home blessed salt and holy water to bless and protect our house and his room. It is the power of the witness of people like you who will bring about the resurgence of belief and faith. I pray that I might in some small way witness as well as you to the people around me. God bless each of you!
Welcome home! Is your son under the care of a mental health professional, btw? If he isn't, is he amenable to the idea?
There's one case recently in the Philippines where a father brought his son to a priest (he is in the ministry of exorcism, healing g & deliverance) for counseling because he was about to comit suicide in his room,, should his wife not came just on time. When the priest interviewed the son, asked him, what his problem was, why he was to commit suicide, the Son answered that he has no problem at all and that he did not know that he was about to commit suicide. Further conversation with the boy, the priest knew that he is walking possessed and he acted right there and while he was performing the deliverance the boy reacted, and the priest also taught the father how to do deliverance in their home. The noy is now completely healed.
I was taught to say, while blessing myself with Holy Water, "May through this Holy Water and the Precious Blood of Jesus, my sins be washed away."
Wonderful!
That’s what I say 🙏
By this holy water and thy precious blood wash away my sin O Lord , sprinkle holy water on souls in purgatory to relieve them of pain .Amen
@@titaniumsteel9114 Thank you for the response. A beautiful addition. May you have a blessed Lenten season.
@@sharonameskamp6893 That prayer must go "way back."
I was struggling in my mind this past Tuesday, like Feeling taken my the enemy. I totally forgot that I had a big jar of holy water my priest blessed for me. I open it up and blessed myself and you know the enemy has left. My mind and thoughts are clear and at rest. Thank you gentlemen for the work you are doing.
God is with you because I went through the same as you and also this past week where the devil is putting thoughts into your mind as soon as this happens ask the holy spirit to come into your life and do a decade of the blessed holy rosary and it's very powerful and the chaplet of devine mercy it only takes 9 minutes to do and it's very powerful prayer is the answer god bless
I believe in the power of Holy water a few years ago my husband and I kept fighting we no longer went on family gatherings and it got really bad we were going to separate. One day he called me and told me to stand in the living room at a specific spot, the front door was open at a specific angle and the sun came into the living room just at the right spot to hit a picture of him and I in the living room. The light hit it perfectly where we could see spit on it or some sort of splatter. It looked like spit balls had been thrown at it. We didn't know what to make of this because the picture was high up. My husband went to church and received holy water and blessed our home. This along with other things help us realize we needed to work on our marriage. I'm not sure why the portrait was the way it was but after we blessed our home with Holy water something changed. Our marriage improved so much i'm in tears thinking about the miracle God made. It's been a few years since then and we're a lot more careful on who we allow inside our home. We hate to believe that someone may have desire something bad upon us but we are glad that the Lord stood next to us and allowed us to see and even if it wasn't anything bad and somehow the portrait got splattered on by accident the blessing of our home with holy water gave us a starting point towards mending our marriage and forgiveness.
Thank you. Your show is so refreshing. I'm from the Philippines and majority of Filipinos are traditionally Catholics with a few born-again Christians in the country. Our family has always had Holy Water within reach. We always had a Holy Rosary and a small bottle of Holy Water wherever we go tucked in our bags. There was not a room in our house without a Holy Crucifix in our home. My mother would attend daily mass twice a day. The 3 Oclock prayer of Saint Faustina and the Angelus was a daily habit. Thank GOD for providing me very prayerful parents who I try to emulate their love and devotion to our Lord Jesus Christ and his Most Blessed Mother Mary. Thank you and always GOD Bless.
Live JESUS In Our Hearts, Forever!
Hi where do you get holy water?
@@tobisorbitz in your church.. if you are a catholic person.. Maybe you can ask your parish priest..
ALWAYS HAVE HOLY WATER IN THE HOUSE.
I carry a small bottle in my purse nowadays, since my church doesn’t have holy water in their fonts now...
I’m always prepared!
AMEN Josephine! So true.
And use it
@Karl Karl I don't have a car anymore. Too expensive. But that's a very good idea for al those that have one.
A beautiful prayer when blessing yourself "By this Holy Water and the Precious Blood of Christ may my sins be washed away".
Amen 🙏
Thank you
I use Holy Water in a diffuser at night.... I woke to a dark presence in the bedroom one night, I prayed and it disappeared.
I got my parish priest to bless some water and since using it on my diffuser, I have had no further incidents.
Now I wear sacramentals and feel they help protect me.
Thanks be to God
Michael Whitty
Hello Michael, I liked hearing g your experience! Just curious, from one Catholic to another, what sacramentals do you wear? I wear the brown scapular for protection & my medallion with a ✝️ cross. I like to share & hear what works for others. They do help! 🙏
Hi Denise,
I wear the Brown Scapular, the Miraculous Medal, the medal of St. Benedict, the Pardon Crucifix with the Medal of St. Michael attached.
Each comes with devotion and prayers.
I also carry my rosary in a leather pouch, it is a pull chain metal Battle rosary , first issued to American servicemen during world war 1.
It has the medals of Our Lady of Guadalupe, St. Benedict, St. Michael, the Miraculous Medal.
My Brown Scapular and Miraculous Medal are my defense, the others are my means of attack against evil.
Hope this helps, have a great day and God bless you.
@@denisseavila9083 I wear the Holy Rosary and The Brown Scapular 24/7 for protection.
I have a basket that I keep bottles of holy water as gifts for anyone who comes to visit I give as gifts with a prayer to say. We keep it in all rooms of our house and use it always. My family lives in peace. Thank you Jesus.🙏🙏🙏❤
I keep a Holy Water Font at the front door, I bless myself when I leave the house. I bless my home once a week.My Parents never did it, But my Grandparents did.
Andrea Phaup why?
This is something I want to start doing.
Is there any certain prayer (s)for the house blessing?
I am missing the holy water at entering at church.
There may be some churches that have it maybe you could ask your priest or Or go to a traditional church or a good priest and see if they will give you some honestly I think it is ridiculous during a pandemic that they would not allow holy water because if it is holy no matter what happens you have the grease from God but you can see if you can get your own personal bottle
I had to search for it. There are a few churches that will give it to you just ask
Praise God my priest sprinkles us with Holy Water and our Church has Holy Water, and I fill my bottle every Sunday, and I have given Holy Water to friends and relatives whose priest have removed the Holy Water founts. Praise God for my Latin priest, who trust in the Lord. No one in our parish has contracted Covid. Praise God. "Jesus I trust in you, Jesus I trust in you, Jesus I trust in you!"🎚️
yes i miss very much Amen
We don't have holy water in our fonts anymore. I miss it! We have bottles of sanitizer at the entrances and around the church. I was thinking we could have bottles of holy water where people could squeeze some drops out or spray bottles where they could spritz it on. Where there's a will there's a way.
Holy Water is also great help for the souls in purgatory. You can sprinkle the graves of your loved ones with Holy water - I once read someones testimony that while doing this he heard a voice saying "more, please more".
I think in Germany there was a custom that when you make a sign of the cross with the Holy Water upon entering the church, you would shake off the remaining drops on the floor offering them up for the souls in purgatory.
My Dad used Holy water and sprinkle it all over his residence every Friday after a hour of prayer and today he is not there with us .. God bless his Soul as he was a devout Catholic since birth.
And today I use Holy water and praying St Micheals Prayer at my Residence ... this is most beautiful inheritance he has passed on to me .. Solely Relying on God for Blessing and Protection in every breath
As a Catholic I have with me the most important things: The Cruxifix,the Bible, holy water, blessed candles . 👍🤗😍😇
And the rosary and the holy oil
So do you have a Bible ? And do you read it ? Cause I have one please tell me where it talks about holy water so I can ask to bless the rivers and lake or the whole ocean for that matter
Respectfully... the most important is your Faith in God and His written WORD. All others, though important in the Faith, come secondary.
And rosary I hope 🤞🏻
Good! Add Blessed Salt & Blessed Oil Sacramentals to your list too.
When my mom was very ill, she'd get restless and we would apply some water on the four posts of her bed, the four corners of her room and a little on her forehead.... miraculously she'd calm down and be restful. Praise Jesus she had a miraculous recovery. Thank you Jesus Christ.
Here in India we use holy water with utmost reverence.... So much so infact that even cancer and people with other illness consume it with medicines and have been healed....it mandatory to sign yourself with holy water before entering the church ( at least it was before COVID)..... Once my uncle who is a capuchin was around for the house warming ceremony of my another uncle... At the last moment we could not find a sprinkler for holy water so he poured it in a bowl and dipped a flower in it to sprinkle the holy water....
That is perfectly fine.
Thank you so much for this video on holy water. It reminds me of a tradition we have in Poland. The parish priests come to every home after Christmas and bless the home and the whole families. It’s meant to bring the priests and the parishioners closer but most of all to cleanse and protect the dwellings.
I am a proud catholic from Philippines.
I use Mary's Lourdes Water and she has helped my pain. Serious PAIN. And she has always took it down. I love Blessed Mother Mary 😍🙏😇🙏😇🙏😇🙏🙏😇
Mary loves you too
Yes, Me too! In fact, I have the mints from "Direct from Lourdes". If I don't feel well (chronic issues) and I'm trying to get to confession, I take a mint, say a prayer and go for it. Within minutes it goes away.
Placebo affect
@@peace-and-quiet I do the same if I have pains anywhere. I wear my Sacred Heart Scapular all the time anyway, but when in pain I clutch it and say a quick prayer, and the pain goes!
This is the first episode of the Catholic Talk Show I have ever seen. I am so happy that I found this. Great discussion, knowledgeable panel with a wonderful Priest ! Thank you so much! God bless you, Father. I appreciated all your words, and I felt your blessing here at home. I always use Holy Water at home. I have even blessed my dogs in the morning and at night with it with a Blessing for children in the Irish language "Gaeilge". ✝️📿☘️😘
It is a great show I recently found it about 4 months ago. I binged watched it
So glad I found you guys! Raised with a Catholic education and now in my last year of my 40’s I have reflected on my life and realize how as a child in catholic school I went to mass 3 days during the week and then once on Sunday and with that much church going I took it for granted my relationship with Christ. As a youth you live life as far away from Jesus as you can and as you get older you try to get as close as possible. My father told me that many years ago and I wish he was still around for me to tell him how true that was.. thanks for this breath of fresh air
I think your beautiful father knows,just talk to Him He will hear you,Guardian Angels are Messengers, ask your Guardian Angel to take that message to Him.. Blessings to you and yours.🙏❤️
When my good friend was in the hospital I visited her and gave her a couple of books on the saints and a small container of Holy Water so she could have some next to her.
PRAISE THE LORD!
I have Holy Water with me and use it on my car before traveling, on my home, animals, myself and family. Holy Water is powerful!!🕯️
Where do you get this holy water from
I work in an ER. And I keep my holy water with me at work. I let labor and delivery know that if a baby is born that looks like it may not make it, and if the parents approve, I can run up and baptize the baby before it passes.
I always drink Holy Water for healing. Believe you me, it works wonders. I even massage all painful joints or places with Holy Water. That's my family practice.
It's usually the Holy Water that's always available at church for parishioners to take home.
Awesome conversation, I am going to have some at the entrance of my house.
GOD bless you guys for the conversations🙌
when things are feeling funny* I'll walk through the house with the holy water, sprinkling it from room to room 'saying anything not of this world or of our Lord Jesus Christ I command you to be gone from these premises in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ'. Everything's calm after that.
Remember to put St. Benedict medals on your windowsills, so you won't be tormented at night with weird satanic chanting that might have been keeping you awake many nights. Crosses on your doors, medals on your sills. Keep THEM away from your home... God Bless
Thanks🙏
My dear brother, ERIC, suffers greatly with PTSD and a host of other health problems. I have been giving him Traditional blessed water (and salt) for the last couple years to bless his house and to ingest with his food, and I would ask anyone reading this to please pray for ERIC for miraculous healing. He has suffered for so many years. I pray God has mercy on him and fills ERIC with hope and healing in mind, body and soul. Amen! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I just prayed for Eric may he be blessed and peaceful 🙏
Take him to adoration of our Lord, and to mass and confession and communion, teach him to pray Rosary, our Father, and St Michael's prayer. All great healers!!!!
I pray for ERIC that he is healed through our Lord🙏
Dear good GOD please have MERCY upon Eric and his brother..Amen🙏🏻💝🌈
Prayed for Eric. May God touch him and heal his ailments, Amen.
I learned to use Holy Water from my Mother, who was of Irish descent. Every time there was a storm coming or active to protect our home and the family. The last Easter my Mom was alive, she picked up 4 little bottles, one for each of us kids. I still have the empty bottle. Mom knew what was important. Come back to the One True Church and see. 😉
I am blessed. Our priest does a very special water blessing every Epiphany. Unfortunately I was unable to attend this year, but the water in the font at the church is from that blessing.
Funeral, House blessings, Car blessings. When you are not in a good mood spray yourself with Holy water like a refreshing water mist, then it will make you feel better, more relaxed, and renewed.
God Bless and remember to stay hydrated my friends!
In 2018 our kerala state in India was flooded. My house is on the banks of the Periyar River, a v v big river. Before I moved out of our house I blessed the banks of the river near our house and our land. The water entered about 1.5 ft in our house while many houses were submerged or similar. Thank you Lord, I believe in the power of God flowing through the Holy Water 🙏
Thanks . I love being a Catholic. Other Christians believe that Catholic is another religions but I am happy am a Catholic.
Bring back the Holy Water Fonts in the Churches!
December 2016 28; I returned from overnight prayers. Had experienced a rather tough 16 months and it was still tough. I was fasting and was with my eldest; just the 2 of us at home. We were seated reading Ephesians and she had requested I prepare lunch for her much later than usual. Suddenly there was a very strong lightening we both shouted out Jesus. I later prepared a meal for her but when plating hot food straight from the hot pot fell on my arm. It hurt so bad so I ran to the tap opened it kept the burnt area under running water for a while. I had a red mark. Later, I poured 500mls of Holy water and that red burning mark disappeared with all the pain.
I have Holy water under my home alter daily since then.
I believe you.
I experienced evil spirit too. The harder you try to be holy the more they will try to attack you but the best thing is God gives you the strength to fight back and it makes you want to pray harder. I fast, go to mass everyday, and pray the Rosary and the Chaplet Devine Mercy very chance I have.
My late mum, installed a holy water dispenser at the entrance to her house. Further at the Graveside just behind the house, she had holy water on the tombstone and we would sprinkle water as we pat respects each time.
I will continue this tradition.
Happy Easter from Kenya
So sorry for your loss. May God bless you and best wishes from Embu
God is good.Amen . We thank God for the good Priests teaching us about the sacramental of holy water.
My Sister is a petty trader, not so much a Church woman. We continue to encourage her. A priest prayed and blessed her business center last year. Since then, she blesses and sprinkles holy water on herself and her shop every day, she believes in the miracle of holy water. The Lord is blessing her. Holy Water is powerful.
I am proud to be a Roman Catholic because of the 7sacraments that we have received from our Tradition aside from the Scripture. And from this 7sacraments, the Holy water plays a very important role in our Christian Life 🤗🙏👍
A Catholic. Roman Catholics live in the diocese of Rome only.
I just went around and counted, I have 5 Holy water fonts in my house, had 6, gave one away. My kids always had one in there bedroom, my parents got for them for their first communion, I have one in my room. and by the front door.
I had A Baptist friend asked me one time, why I had a pretty little bird-feeder in my dining room🤣 I told her what it was, and I couldn’t stop laughing🤣 needless to say, she has that “pretty little Bird-feeder in her dining room now” and said she’ll cherish it forever.
@Karin Gibeau that is actually so pure and sweet what your
friend said!
I smiled reading that she thought you had a bird feeder in your dining room and that now she has it in hers and cherishes it
So beautiful !! I love how God works through us ! Preaching without saying a word... A Catholic home speaks volumes to our guests and friends.🕊🦋
So beautiful a friend can be to our existence. 💐
Im from India...I make use of Holy Water and Holy Oil...daily...i love to use it and have deep faith in its goodness...i have even made it a habit to use it before leaving home..and my 27 yr old son too uses it since i made this a habit for him...now he is....studying in Canada...and there too he uses it.
Im only sad now that our Church has stopped keeping holy water in d fount at d entrance since Covid.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR WONDERFUL VIDEOS...VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND ENLIGHTENING
Richard P is a holy man. We are very blessed to have him in our diocese of St Augustine Fl. 🕊🌹🙏🏻
I grew up with a holy water font and my parents (my dad has passed) still give us a blessing. I thought it was just a mexican thing to do. I do give my kids blessings but I don't have a font this episode inspired me to by a font for home.
@Tita Cozzoni I’ve been learning recently that a lot of Mexican Catholic beliefs and traditions are the same ones Irish Catholics have always used.
My favourite story growing up was hearing my dad tell us about little Christmas (I’ve learnt Mexicans also celebrate this but call it Three Kings day) which he and his siblings would always get a little present to represent the wisemen
It just shows you that despite being thousands of miles apart and for years there being no easy way to communicate all Catholics around the world grew up having the same beliefs and strengths in traditions
Use Holy water and liberation prayers before bed. Our Father and St Michael prayers, day and night. Evil floats around us all.
That's no bad idea.
My dear great grand mother Valarie always had a holy water fond by the front door and a votive light burning. 🙏🏻
I taught for ten years in a foreign land and every time I got in to my classroom,I sprinkled holy water in every chair and corners of the room. As I do so I prayed to the Lord that He will guide me as I teach the students and to touch every student’s heart to listen, take care of each other and most of all to accept one another’s differences.
The simplest sacramentals but yet SO POWERFUL! GOD IS GOOD!!
*Col.2:* 8See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.
*Ecc.3:* 14I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him.
15Whatever is has already been,
and what will be has been before;
and God will call the past to account.
16And I saw something else under the sun:
In the place of judgment-wickedness was there,
in the place of justice-wickedness was there.
17I said to myself,
“God will bring into judgment
both the righteous and the wicked,
for there will be a time for every activity,
a time to judge every deed.”
18I also said to myself, “As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals.
*Gal.1:* 8But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!
9As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!
10Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
11I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin.
12I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
I liked my brother in priesthood speaking Latin with his American English accent. I mean it. God bless.
Me too!👌🌹🌹🌹
oh Lord that was cute and painfull in the same way
Interesting this video came up in my feed. I have a very precious bottle of holy water given to me by an RC priest friend of nearly 40 years. A parishioner of his had a quest to visit many Catholic shrines throughout the world and collected holy water from each shrine, and upon return home placed the small amount of water he was able to being home in a glass jug which he did over the course of many years. The water never spoiled, and he would give small bottles of the water to priests to utilize as they saw fit. My RC priest friend used this water to bless my home in R.I. and gave me what was left of it which I pur in a small spray bottle. My husband and I recently relocated to Florida where we purchased a new home, and I proceeded to bless my new home and yard with this water.
We all had holy water fonts on our walls when I was young. My mother had one by the front door and she hung ine in each bedroom by the door. I haven't even thought about it for many years, but I will now put one by my front door. Thank you .
My mum would always bless us with the sign of the cross and add a few drops of holy water into our school water bottles.
Oh ya I am adding this to my arsenal of spiritual warfare when the kids go out the door !!
I brought a very small empty bottle with me on our trip to Paris. I filled it with Holy Water from the Notre Dame Cathedral. It give me comfort having it in the house. I will use it when I bless our new home.
I’ve had a bottle of holy water for 12 years, it has never gone stagnant. I just refilled it. Amazing. Water is life, God uses to assist us an remind us that our faith leads to eternal life. I think it’s a gift.
I received the sacramental oils for Anointing of the Sick on the Feast Day of Saint Joseph this year. The entire church prayed over me. I was completely healed and delivered from my mental health condition on June 18th. I am super excited, and my mission is to be a writer. My vocation is in the Lord's hands. I am enough, the Lord is truly enough, and I am able to pay it forward as a prayer warrior.
I invite people to take home the baptismal water that was used for the baptism of their baby to be used as Holy Water.
I have a holy water font filled by my front door and bless myself when I wake up in the morning, when I leave the house, when I return to my house & before I go to bed at night. Thank you for you show/videos. God bless 🙏🏻
My grandma has a holy water font in her home. It wasn't always full but it was a very present reminder. I also have one on the upper floor of my home. Sadly, I have to admit I have never filled it although i do have a bottle of holy water in the house that I have used for various reasons on my family. I plan on filling it tonight. thanks for helping renew a long held tradition.
On the 24th of January this year, I attended the four days of inner-healing retreat at Tabor Ashram in Kalyan for the first time after the lockdown. On the third day of the retreat during adoration time, when the lights were switched off in the prayer hall and we retreatants (more than 200 of us) were all praying, I looked at the Eucharistic Lord (sacred bread for Catholics) in the monstrance which was kept on the altar for veneration and suddenly I found it surrounded by an aura of bright light. When I continued looking at it and praying (because we Christians believe that Jesus Christ is present in it), a small dot of blood appeared on it. The dot of blood as I continued looking at it, became bigger and in a few minutes, the entire host was covered with blood. Also, I got back the gift of tears which I had lost since eight years back because of my sins and lack of prayer. This miracle happened after I made a good confession the previous day and repented for all my past sins. This miracle was witnessed only by me and no other retreatant in the prayer hall.
