Words of Our Lord to Marie-Julie on (July 20, 1882):
"I wish that My male and female servants, and even small children can clothe themselves with a Cross. This Cross will be small and will bear in its middle the appearance of a small white flame. This flame will indicate that they are sons and daughters of the light."

(OBSERVATIONS: compare this with St. Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians on the End Times:
“But of
the times and moments, brethren, you need not, that we should write
to you; For yourselves know perfectly, that the day of the Lord shall
so come, as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, peace and
security; then shall sudden destruction come upon them, as the pains
upon her that is with child, and they shall not escape. But you,
brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a
thief.
For all you are the children of light, and children of the day: we
are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore,
let us not sleep, as others do; but let us watch, and be sober. For
they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that are drunk, are
drunk in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, having
on the breastplate of faith and charity, and for a helmet the hope of
salvation. For God hath not appointed us unto wrath, but unto the
purchasing of salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us;
that, whether we watch or sleep, we may live together with Him.” (1
Thes. 5: 1-9)
St. Paul says if we live as childen of the Light, followers of Christ, that Day of Destruction will NOT overtake us like a thief in the night as it will to those living in sin and darkness.
We also see this again later in the texts below to Marie Julie Jahenny Our Lord wants His children protected, and 'not surprised', i.e. not taken unawares of what is coming. This new sacramental is a pledge that we wish to prepare and live as 'children of the light' and will gives us graces of protection.)

Words of Our Lord to Marie-Julie Jahenny:
“My little beloved friends, you will bear on yourselves My Adorable Cross that will preserve you from all sorts of evil, big or small and later I shall bless them.” (Ecstasy July 20, 1882)
“My little beloved friends, it is to give you an idea of what I endure at the thought of so many souls deprived of endless happiness. (i.e. of all the souls that will be lost). My little beloved friends, these past days have left so much evil, but those that come will be even more terrible because evil will take a terrible intensity, extend soon with greater measurements.
My little beloved
friends, you will carry on yourselves My Adorable Crucifix which will
preserve you of every sort and kind of evils, big or small and later I
shall bless them.
- Firstly, they will carry the name of "Cross of Pardon."
- Secondly, they will carry the name of "Cross of Salvation."
- Thirdly, they will carry the name of "Cross of Holy Protection."
- Fourthly, they will carry the name of "Cross that Calms Plagues."
- Fifthly, they will carry the prayer:
- Firstly, they will carry the name of "Cross of Pardon."
- Secondly, they will carry the name of "Cross of Salvation."
- Thirdly, they will carry the name of "Cross of Holy Protection."
- Fourthly, they will carry the name of "Cross that Calms Plagues."
- Fifthly, they will carry the prayer:
"O God, Crucified Saviour, set me
ablaze with love, faith and courage for the salvation of my brothers."
"My little children, all souls that suffer and those sieved out by the blight, all those who will kiss it will have My forgiveness, all those who will touch it will have My forgiveness. The expiation will be long but one day there will be Heaven, Heaven will be opened. I have warned you beforehand, My little beloved friends, so that you are not surprised, so that you have all the time to inform your loved ones and families." (i.e. that the coming chastisements do not take us by surprise. God also wants us to warn our families of what is coming).

(i.e. that the coming chastisements do not take us by surprise. God also wants us to warn our families of what is coming).
PLEASE NOTE: this promise of forgiveness by simply kissing this cross is first resevered for the times of the persecution of the Church when priests will be on the run, churches will be closed, and we won't have the Sacarment of Reconciliation. It will also be for the time when the "burning plague" spreads so fast people will not have time to see a priest and desire to make a perfect Confession / Act of Contrition, etc.
While we have Confession, we must still go to Confession! However, we are promised protection if we wear it now, and of course, there is nothing stopping us from kissing it now in the meantime and asking for the grace of a perfection confession before we go confess our sins. God promised His forgiveness, so of course, we can have faith He will help us make a very good confession.

Ecstasy of January 17th, 1922
Our Lord reveals this prayer to be recited often, and especially at the time of the "big deluge of evil and fears":
"I salute you, I adore you, I embrace you, O Adorable Cross of my Saviour. Protect us, guard us, save us. Jesus loved you so much, following His example, I love you. By your holy image calm our fears. That I feel only peace and trust!"
Our Lord adds that by this request "You will feel so many graces, so much strength and love that this big flood will be pass you as something unobserved. It is a grace of My tenderness."
