INTERCESSION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Lord Jesus, renew in us the miracle of the First Pentecost. Give us the desire to conquer, by love, the world for You and Your Kingdom. Give us Your Holy Spirit-the Conqueror of Love, the Spirit of the Apostles who bring You to the whole world, the Spirit of Martyrs who have died for You, the Spirit of Warriors who have confessed You. Help us to be Christians in spirit, heart, and deed. May our lives, although sometimes poor, not be useless. We want to build the Church, Your Kingdom. Amen.

INVOCATION TO THE HOLY SPIRIT
Holy Spirit, I ask for an outpouring of your graces, blessings and gifts, upon those who do not believe, that they may believe; Upon those who are doubtful or confused, that they may understand; Upon those who are lukewarm or indifferent, that they may be transformed; Upon those who are constantly living in the state of sin, that they may be converted; Upon those who are weak, that they may be strengthened; Upon those who are holy, that they may persevere. Amen.

CONSECRATION TO THE HOLY SPIRIT
Holy Spirit, I know that if I take my life into my own hands and make decisions without your guidance, I won't find full happiness. Because of your Infinite Love for me, I know you can take my life in Your hands. I understand that You only want the very best for me and my loved ones.

Therefore, bring to rule, all evil spirits who hang over my heart, mind, soul and body, and who often force me to do evil, under the guise of good. I send them to You, to destroy them, that they may never return to either me, or my relatives and friends.

Therefore, I bring to rule over my mind, heart, soul and body all evil spirits. I renounce all evil spirits who prowl around me and force me to do evil under the guise of good. I send them to you, that you may destroy them, so that they may never return to me or to my friends.

Holy Spirit, take full control over me. I only allow You to have this control. I am preparing my heart, mind, soul and body, and I invite you to enter inside me and take full possession over my eyes, ears, mouth, hands, legs and everything.

Henceforth, I desire, with all of my mind, heart, soul and strength to do just this, Your Holy Will, to speak only the words You would speak, to desire only that which You would desire, and to think about myself, others and even You, as You would have me.

May I, as You, perform only the best deeds, speak the best words, and make the wisest decisions, so that I may become more and more like You, and imitate You in all things, for I have been created in Your Image.

Please completely transform me in Your love, for You are Love, Itself.

Amen.
