Is the Novena to Our Lady of Good Success powerful?
Catholics consider this novena a powerful devotion because it draws us closer to Jesus through Mary’s maternal intercession. The true power of any novena comes from faith in God and trust in His divine will.
In 1599, Our Lady of Good Success appeared to a sister in Quito, Ecuador, and commanded a statue to be made of her, for she would govern the conceptionist Convent as Abbess until the end of the world.
she said. ”In my right hand, place crosier and keys to the cloister as a sign of my proprietorship and authority.
”In my left arm, place my Divine Child so that men will understand how powerful I am in placating the Divine Justice and obtaining mercy and pardon for every sinner who comes to me with a contrite heart, for I am the Mother of Mercy and in me there is only goodness and love…let them come to me, for I will lead them to him.”
The statue was miraculously completed by Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael in the early morning of January 16, 1611.
Those who invoke her under the title of Good Success have never failed to experience her help and guidance.
