Often devotions in the Church are prayer forms and sacred images that arise from private revelations, or personal religious experiences of individuals such as apparitions of Mary or of Christ. Catholic devotions also include the veneration of saints. The Church has a tradition of thorough investigation of such private revelations and the lives of candidates for sainthood to assure that no natural or scientific explanation can, at the time of investigation, account for any miracles involved. Often an approved devotion of the Church has an particular prayer form, an image and sometimes an message or prophecy.
Examples of Catholic devotions include the Rosary, Sacred Heart, Immaculate Heart, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Novenas, devotion to the Blessed Sacrament etc.
