25 Rules for Spiritual Warfare from Jesus to St. Faustina Apr 11, 2025

The following 25 rules for spiritual warfare are drawn from that revelation, recorded in entry 1760 of Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul. Jesus begins, "My daughter, I want to teach you about spiritual warfare," and proceeds to offer clear, concrete instructions—commands, warnings, and consolations—meant to strengthen her soul for battle. These words, though given to St. Faustina, speak to all who seek holiness in the midst of trial.
