"On Friday during Holy Communion, He said these words to His unworthy slave, if I mistake not: I promise you in the excessive mercy of my Heart that its all-powerful love will grant to all those who receive Holy Communion on nine first Fridays of consecutive months the grace of final repentance; they will not die under my displeasure or without receiving their sacraments, my divine Heart making itself their assured refuge at the last moment."

With regard to this promise it may be remarked: (1) that our Lord required Communion to be received on a particular day chosen by Him; (2) that the nine Fridays must be consecutive; (3) that they must be made in honor of His Sacred Heart, which means that those who make the nine Fridays must practice the devotion and must have a great love for our Lord; (4) that our Lord does not say that those who make the nine Fridays will be dispensed from any of their obligations or from exercising the vigilance necessary to lead a good life and overcome temptation; rather He implicitly promises abundant graces to those who make the nine Fridays to help them to carry out these obligations and persevere to the end; (5) that perseverance in receiving Holy Communion for nine consecutive First Firdays helps the faithful to acquire the habit of frequent Communion, which our Lord eagerly desires; and (6) that the practice of the nine Fridays is very pleasing to our Lord since He promises such great reward, and that all Catholics should endeavor to make the nine Fridays.

Prayer Source:  Enthronment of the Sacred Heart by Rev. Francis Larkin, SS.CC., St. Paul Editions, 1978.
Rev. Schmiedeler gives the significance and a brief history of the devotion to the Sacred Heart. He also explains how to enthrone the Sacred Heart within your home.

A religious practice that is growing considerably in popularity in this country today is the Enthronement of the Sacred Heart. It grew out of a promise made by Christ to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque: "I will bless every house in which an image of My Heart shall be exposed and honored."

The idea of the Enthronement is that "in the Christian home a throne of love and veneration is erected for the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and that His sovereign rights over the family be thereby recognized." The practice is an external recognition of the fact that Christ is the real head of the home. It is not merely a passing act of consecration to the Sacred Heart but a permanent state of devotion and love.

The Enthronement itself is a simple procedure. A picture (or image) of the Sacred Heart is secured. On a chosen day, the pastor is invited to the home to read the Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart for the family and to bless the picture and the home. It is then "enthroned" in a prominent place in the home. The names of the members of the family, living and deceased, are customarily inscribed on a scroll and placed with the picture. The Act of Consecration should be renewed by the family members monthly, and on special occasions.

Rev Schmiedeler donne la signification et une brève histoire de la dévotion au Sacré-Cœur. Il explique également comment introniser le Sacré-Cœur au sein de votre maison.

Une pratique religieuse qui se développe considérablement en popularité dans ce pays aujourd'hui  est l'intronisation du Sacré-Cœur. Il est issu d'une promesse faite par  Christ à sainte Marguerite-Marie Alacoque: « Je bénirai chaque maison dans laquelle une image de mon coeur sera exposée et honorée ».
L'idée de l'Intronisation est que « dans la maison chrétienne un trône d'amour et de vénération est érigé pour le Sacré-Cœur de Jésus, et que ses droits souverains sur la famille soient reconnus »." La pratique est une reconnaissance externe du fait que Christ est le véritable chef de la maison. Ce n'est pas seulement un acte de passage de consécration au Sacré-Cœur, mais un état ??permanent de dévotion et d'amour.
L'intronisation elle-même est une procédure simple. Une photo (ou image) du Sacré-Cœur est fixée lors d’un jour choisi, le pasteur est invité à la maison pour lire l'Acte de consécration au Sacré-Cœur pour la famille et pour bénir l'image et la maison. Elle est ensuite « intronisée » dans un endroit bien en vue dans la maison. Les noms des membres de la famille, vivants et défunts, sont habituellement inscrits sur un parchemin et placés avec l'image. L'Acte de consécration devrait être renouvelé mensuellement par les membres de la famille, et lors d'occasions spéciales.
