The Agony in the Garden:
Jesus, your friends, slept while you experienced Agony in the Garden. And then your enemies arrived. Fighting ensued between the disciples and the soldiers. I offer this decade for all the nations of the world, most especially nations who are enemies of Christianity. May they open their hearts to you, the Prince of Peace, and stop pursuing the end of your Church. May all your friends on earth awaken to this threat and have the courage to defend you in love.
The Scourging at the Pillar:
Jesus, you surrendered your army and your power. You were a victim to cruel and horrific physical violence. You were tortured by evil hands, by whips that ripped your flesh from your bones and spilled your Blood upon the ground. I offer this decade of the Rosary for all nations and soldiers experiencing the horrors of physical combat and for all victims held as prisoners of war, currently being tortured. May the Blood you spilled at the Scourging at the Pillar cover them, renew them, and protect them. May the evil hands inflicting this violence surrender to your Almighty power and be filled with your peace.
The Crowning with Thorns:
Jesus, the soldiers who mocked you, were filled with such arrogance, pride, and hatred that they could not see the truth of who you really are. They could not see that you are the Almighty King of Heaven and Earth. I offer this decade of the Rosary for all leaders around the world who are filled with arrogance, pride, and hatred for God. May their eyes be opened to the truth. May their hearts acknowledge you as King, and may they bow with humility to your sovereignty over all the earth.
The Carrying of the Cross:
Jesus, instead of acting with truth and justice, Pilate ruled in favor of the people who had sinful hearts and who sought your demise. You were forced then to carry your Cross to Golgatha. I offer this decade of the Rosary for all rulers around the world who are threatened by an uprising. May they have the courage to act and rule with truth and justice, and may the power of your Cross save them from demise.
The Crucifixion:
Jesus, while you hung on the Cross, you said to John, “Behold your mother,” thereby entrusting us all to the maternal care of the Blessed Virgin Mary. At Fatima, the peace of the world was also entrusted to Mary. You allowed her to appear to three shepherd children and request consecration to her Immaculate Heart. I offer this decade of the Rosary for all church and world leaders that they might seek the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary and consecration to Her Immaculate Heart.
