Daily Consecration — Militia Immaculata
Latin
O IMMACULATA, coeli et terrae Regina, refugium peccatorum et Mater nostra amorosissima, Tu cui Deus totum ordinem misericordiae committi voluit, ego N.N. indignus peccator, ad pedes Tuos me provolvo suppliciter petens, ut me totum et totaliter tamquam rem et proprietatem Tuam assumere et de me, de omnibus potentiis animae et corporis, de tota vita, morte et aeternitate mea, quidquid Tibi magis placet facere digneris.
Utaris etiam, si hoc Tibi placet, me toto et totaliter ad hoc quod de Te dictum est: “Ipsa conteret caput tuum” [Gen 3,15] et “Cunctas haereses sola interemisti in universo mundo” [officium BVM] exequendum, ut in Tua immaculata et misericordiosissima manu aptum sim instrumentum ad gloriam Tuam in tot deviatis ac tepidis animis introducendam et quam maxime augmentandam et ita dulcissimum Regnum Sacratissimi Cordis Iesu quam maxime extendendum, ubi enim Tu intras ibi et gratiam conversionis et sanctificationis impetras, per Tuas enim manus omnes ad nos gratiae ex Corde Sacratissimo Iesu perveniunt.
℞. Dignare me laudare Te, Virgo Sacrata.
℞℞. Da mihi virtutem contra hostes Tuos.
Amen.
English
O IMMACULATA, Queen of Heaven and earth, refuge of sinners and our most loving Mother, God has willed to entrust the entire order of mercy to you. I, (name), a repentant sinner, cast myself at your feet humbly imploring you to take me with all that I am and have, wholly to yourself as your possession and property. Please make of me, of all my powers of soul and body, of my whole life, death and eternity, whatever most pleases you.
If it pleases you, use all that I am and have without reserve, wholly to accomplish what was said of you: “She will crush your head,” and, “You alone have destroyed all heresies in the world.” Let me be a fit instrument in your immaculate and merciful hands for introducing and increasing your glory to the maximum in all the many strayed and indifferent souls, and thus help extend as far as possible the blessed kingdom of the most Sacred Heart of Jesus. For wherever you enter, you obtain the grace of conversion and growth in holiness, since it is through your hands that all graces come to us from the most Sacred Heart of Jesus.
℞. Allow me to praise you, O sacred Virgin.
℞℞. Give me strength against your enemies.
Amen.

Daily Consecration
English
Mary, today I renew in your hands the promise of my baptism. I renounce forever Satan, the enemy of our joy. I renounce his deceits, his seductions, and all his works. I give myself entirely to Jesus, the living sign of God’s love for us, in order to be more faithful to Him and in order to live fully as a child of God, I entrust myself to you, Immaculate Mary. I choose you as my Mother and Lady. To you as your child, I abandon and consecrate my life, my family, and the community in which I live. I ever entrust myself to your wishes, O Mary; preserve me from sin and defend me from the Evil One. On the last day, receive me in your arms and present me to Jesus as your child. Then, singing the eternal song of praise to God, together with you, O merciful Mother, my paradise will begin and my soul will exult with joy.
Amen.
