St Anselm of Cardaccio (4th c) prayed this Novena nine times dayly. He was spirit-filled, and died holding a brown scapular in his hands.

@StlHr4U Your insight awakens something I have never thought or imagined. Yes, you are right. Two human beings who had the God-given privilege to first hold the baby Jesus in their arms are Mary and Joseph. Why have I never thought of it. Thank you for letting me know.

Sitting here with tears in my eyes. The thought of holding the baby Jesus in ones arms is too much to imagine. Holding God !!!! The created holding the Creator. Wow.

@LadyD1976 The Bible nowhere instructs believers in Christ to pray to anyone other than God. The Bible nowhere encourages, or even mentions, believers asking individuals in heaven for their prayers.
First Timothy 2:5 declares, "For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." There is no one else that can mediate with God for us. If Jesus is the ONLY mediator, that indicates Mary and the saints cannot be mediators

@LadyD1976 Praying to the dead is strictly forbidden in the Bible. Deuteronomy 18:11 tells us that anyone who “consults with the dead” is “detestable to the Lord.” The story of Saul consulting a medium to bring up the spirit of the dead Samuel resulted in his death “because he was unfaithful to the LORD; he did not keep the word of the LORD and even consulted a medium for guidance” (1 Samuel 28:1-25; 1 Chronicles 10:13-14). Clearly, God has declared that such things are not to be done.

While there are numerous prayers to St Joseph besides this one - I believe that this is the oldest most traditional prayer. For maximum effect, It can be said once per day over 9 consecutive days as a Novena (or even once per hour over 9 consecutive hours). Please know that I also will keep you in my prayers, that you and your mother will be able to buy back your home and gain financial assistance. God Bless +++
