Three of the most popular devotions to Our Lord include Adoration of the Holy Eucharist, the Divine Mercy chaplet, and devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Our Lord appeared to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque in 1675 and revealed twelve promises he would grant to all those who practiced a true devotion to His Sacred Heart. Pope Leo XIII consecrated the whole world to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in 1899. Pope Pius XII also encouraged Catholics to consecrate themselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, saying:
| "The Consecration stands out and is notable, by which we, recognizing that we have received all that we are and have from the eternal love of God, dedicate ourselves and all that we have to the Divine Heart of Jesus." |

Devotion to Our Lady comes in many forms ranging from simple prayers to pilgrimages to apparition sites. Some of the most popular Marian devotions include praying the rosary, wearing Miraculous Medals, and devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Both of these forms of prayer are biblically based and honor Our Lady's obedience and humility.
