The Prayer of Consecration to the Holy Spirit is a powerful Catholic prayer of total surrender and devotion to the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity. Inviting the faithful to offer themselves — soul and body — to the Eternal Spirit of God, it includes heartfelt petitions for protection from sin, guidance in daily life, and the grace to remain faithful to His inspirations. Drawing upon the merits of Christ’s Passion, His Five Wounds, and His Precious Blood, this treasured Catholic devotion closes with a moving act of surrender from Sacred Scripture: “Speak, Lord, for Thy servant heareth.” (1 Samuel 3:10)
Prayer of Consecration to the Holy Spirit
[Video will be available on Monday, May 04, 2026]
On my knees before the great multitude of heavenly witnesses, I offer myself soul and body to Thee, Eternal Spirit of God. I adore the brightness of Thy purity, the unerring keenness of Thy justice, and the might of Thy love.
Thou art the Strength and Light of my soul. In Thee I live and move and am. I desire never to grieve Thee by unfaithfulness to grace, and I pray with all my heart to be kept from the smallest sin against Thee.
Mercifully guard my every thought and grant that I may always watch for Thy light, and listen to Thy voice, and follow Thy gracious inspirations. I cling to Thee and give myself to Thee, and ask Thee by Thy compassion to watch over me in my weakness.
Holding the pierced Feet of Jesus, and looking at His Five Wounds, and trusting in His Precious Blood, and adoring His opened Side and stricken Heart, I implore Thee, Adorable Spirit, helper of my infirmity, so to keep me in Thy grace that I may never sin against Thee.
Give me grace, O Holy Ghost, Spirit of the Father and the Son, to say to Thee always and everywhere, “Speak, Lord, for Thy servant heareth.” Amen.
