REFLECTIONS ON HEALING
by Sister Raquel Reodica, RVM
During the few years of my ministry as an instrument of Jesus for healing, I began to realize that, aside from physical poisons and genetic defects that cause diseases and physical and mental discomforts, there are also social and psychological poisons in our own homes and in society that pre-dispose us to illnesses by creating certain attitudes and feelings within us.
Heart disease, suicide, mental illness, or cancer can be correlated to psychological factors.We can even be disposed to accidents psychologically. Almost all, if not all sicknesses and bodily discomforts have psychological antecedents.
LIFE PATTERNS and ATTITUDES can predispose us to various types of diseases. Some doctors I have met say many of them are now beginning to regard the emotional realities in the lives of their patients. They begin to look beyond the question of chemical poisons and consider the possibility of PSYCHOLOGICAL POISONS.
To go against lifelong emotional habits can be extremely difficult for most people. This is an advice that we have to give to the sick:

PREPARATIONS FOR HEALING
First of all, understand that healing is between you and the Lord. Sister Raquel, holy water, blessed towels, or any other medium are just tools of the Lord for healing you. They do not heal by themselves but are ‘bridges’ of the Lord to you. Sister Raquel does not have the power to heal, only the Lord through her.
Without spiritual preparation and spiritual transformation, there can be no healing. Healing cannot happen in a snap or a simple pray-over. It is not like turning a switch off and on. It involves a spiritual process. The person to be healed must undergo a SPIRITUAL CLEANSING prior to healing.
Spiritual healing precedes physical healing. Return first to the Lord and submit to Him your entire being so He can heal you. People who were healed by Sister Raquel all speak about the change in their lives, the loss of impatience and sudden anger, the goodwill for people, and most especially the consequent inner peace derived from this spiritual transformation or cleansing.

HERE ARE SIMPLE GUIDELINES FROM SISTER RAQUEL:
Pray and meditate often
Talk to Jesus in a casual conversation
He is beside you more than you know
Pause for a moment and think of your past sins
whom did you hurt or exploit or maltreat
a housemaid, a friend, a spouse, your children?
Whom can you not forgive for things they did to you?
Without forgiveness it is hard to be healed
even with all the prayers and healing visits you make
Ask for forgiveness for injustice and hurt you have done to others
and forgive others who have hurt you no matter how serious
resolve to correct your sinful ways
Resolve not to be cranky or impatient with people
especially small people such as maids, drivers, workers
Help and give to others according to your capacity especially the poor
Do not just give money or material items
Give yourself, your goodwill, and your time no matter how busy you are
Only then can you ask the Lord to heal you
when you are spiritually clean
Once you are pleasing to the Lord
your healing is already in process
As soon as you begin to pray and ask Him for healing
Invoke the intercession of Mother Mary, St. Joseph, and Mother Ignacia

PRAYER FOR HEALING AND REBIRTH
by Sister Raquel Reodica, RVM
by Sister Raquel Reodica, RVM
At 8:00 a.m. every morning, find a quiet place. Attune your spirit to Jesus through His Blessed Mother Mary. Read slowly with your heart this prayer. Express silently your deep desire for complete healing. This is your one-on-one prayer with Jesus.
Our Father in heaven, Creator of my body, wherein I (state your name) dwell and through which I live, make me realize in the name of JESUS that my present bodily ailment is a result of my own sins, my wrong doings, my wrong thinking, my transgressions against Your laws.
I ask forgiveness, Jesus, for these wrong doings, and promise to change my ways. Make me realize, in the name of JESUS, that Your creative power, which fashioned my body, is still in me, in my consciousness, in my mind, ready to serve me at any time of need. Make me realize that I, in my free will, now have control over this creative power within me which I can direct to act for my own well being, but only if my thoughts and feelings are attuned to You. In full realization of this, I NOW CALL UPON YOUR CREATIVE POWER within me, O Lord God, in Jesus' name, to correct and eliminate any and all my bodily imperfections and diseases and discomforts.
I KNOW AND EXPECT THAT MY REBIRTH IS NOW ACTIVELY TAKING PLACE WITHIN ME because of Your creative love and mercy, and Your healing grace in my every cell and nerve and gland and tissue and fiber and organ, especially my: (state any or all sicknesses).
In accordance with my vision and my active FAITH IN YOU, MY ALMIGHTY GOD, CREATOR AND LORD, IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, THE SON OF MOTHER MARY, through the intercessions of MOTHER IGNACIA DEL ESPIRITU SANTO and all Your saints, I am healed.
AMEN. AMEN. AMEN.

Ave Maria! My prayer for Venerable Madre Ignacia del Espiritu Santo is for me to fulfill God’s Holy Will and the Most Blessed Virgin Mary in my poor life as it was spxcellently live by our blessed Venerable Mother Ignacia . I lift my earnest petitions to Our Lord Jesus through our dear Mother Ignacia who was devoted to Our Lady, the Mother of Our Lord who will eventually present it to Her Divine Son, Our Lord and Savior. This prayer petition is no other than the expansion of the Eucharistic Social Kingship of the Sacred Heart of Christ the King!
I particularly ask for the Sanctification of Priest and Religious, especially through the very near Beatification & Canonization of Ven.Mother Ignacia~ a model of fidelity to the Teachings of the Holy Mother the Church that Christ Jesus hast founded may by God’s Most Holy Will help RVM be summarily and miraculously return to the Traditional Latin Tridentine Mass the only liturgical rite of Holy Mass Mother Ignacia attended and loved, together with all their wards, families, and spiritual followers this Fatima Centenary.
Let Ven.Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo pray too for the Sanctification of Educators and All Teachers, the Sanctification of Leaders and those in Authorities, the Sanctification of Families and Every Home and lastly, may Ven.Mother Ignacia obtain for us an uninterrupted abundance of Holy Vocations ~ priestly and religious with the same Marian spirit which will came forth from our own home and family as inspired by Ven.Madre Ignacia’s home~ the Beaterio of old patterned after the Holy Family of Nazareth.
May we be united with all the saints in praising, adoring and loving the Triune Lord and honoring the
Immaculata led by the Ven. Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo in singing “Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Espiritui Sancto! Amen. Ave Maria Purisima! Hail Mary, full of grace the Lord is with Thee, blessed art Thou amongst women and blessed is the Fruit of Thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.”
Mabuhay and Panginoon at Mahal na Birhen sa puso ni Ven.Madre Ignacia del Espiritu Santo! Mabuhay and Panginoon at Mahal na Birhen sa puso ni Ven.Madre Ignacia at kanyang mga tagasunod! Mangyari nawa ang Kalooban ng Panginoon at Mahal na Birhen sa amin, wala na akong iba pang mahihiling! Fiat Voluntas Tua! Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Regina Coeli, laetare! Alelluia!!
