SPIRITUAL WARFARE FOR FREEDOM FROM CURSES...

 

In the name of Jesus Christ, under the Mantle of Mary, through the intercession of the Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta, I place myself in the presence of Jesus Christ and submit to His Lordship. I “put on God's Armor so as to be able to resist the Devil's tactics.” (Ephesians 6:10-11)

I stand my ground “with Truth buckled around my waist and integrity for a breastplate.” (Ephesians 6:14)

I carry the “shield of Faith” to “put out the burning arrows of the evil one.” (Ephesians 6:16)

I accept “Salvation from God to be my helmet and receive the Word of God from the Spirit to use as a sword.” (Ephesians 6:17)

In the name of Jesus Christ crucified, died and risen, I bind all the spirits of the air, the atmosphere, the water, the fire, the wind, the ground, the underground, and the netherworld. I also bind the influence of any lost or fallen soul who may be present, and all emissaries of the Satanic headquarters or any coven of witches or warlocks or Satan worshipers who may be present in some preternatural way. I claim the Blood of Jesus on the air and atmosphere, the water, the fire, the wind, the ground and their fruits all around us, the underground and the netherworld.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I forbid every adversary mentioned to communicate with or help one another in any way, or to communicate with me, or to do anything at all except what I command in Jesus' Name.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I seal this place and all present and all family and associates of those present and their places and possessions and sources of supply in the Blood of Jesus. (Repeat three times.)

In the name of Jesus Christ, I forbid any lost spirits, covens, Satanic groups or emissaries or any of their associates, subjects or superiors to harm or take revenge on me, my family and my associates, or cause harm or damage to anything we have.

In the name of Jesus Christ and by the Merits of His Precious Blood, I break and dissolve every curse, hex, seal, spell, sorcery, bond, snare, trap, device, lie, stumbling block, obstacle, deception, diversion or distraction, spiritual chain or spiritual influence, also every disease of body, soul, mind or spirit placed upon us or on this place, or on any of the persons, places and things mentioned, by any agent, or brought on us by our own mistakes or sins. (Repeat three times.)

I now place the Cross of Jesus Christ between myself and all generations in my family tree. I say in the name of Jesus Christ that there will be no direct communication between the generations. All communication will be filtered through the Precious Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Mary Immaculate, clothe me in the Light, Power and Energy of Your Faith. Father, please assign the Angels and Saints to assist me. Thank You, Lord Jesus, for being my Wisdom, my Justice, my Sanctification, my Redemption. I surrender to the ministry of Your Holy Spirit, and receive Your Truth concerning intergeneration healing.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the Beginning, is now and ever shall be. AMEN.

A LENTEN MEDITATION

"The Christ of the University Brotherhood of Cordoba"

The result of the work of a team of scientists who are researchers of the Shroud of Turin. It is the only Shroud-based Crucifix in the world. In it, the wounds of Jesus Christ are reproduced exactly.

Shroud-Based Art of Juan Manuel Miñarro Lopez

O Sacred Head surrounded

By crown of piercing thorn!

O bleeding Head so wounded,

Reviled and put to scorn!

Death's pallid hue comes o'er Thee,

The glow of life decays,

Yet angel hosts adore Thee,

And tremble as they gaze.

In this, Thy bitter passion,

Good shepherd, think of me,

With Thy most sweet compassion,

Unworthy though I be:

Beneath Thy cross abiding,

Forever would I rest;

In Thy dear love confiding,

And with Thy presence blest.

  

One’s mortal sin testifies to Satan’s victory in one’s life.

PRAYERS FOR EXPELLING DEMONS

Prayer Against Malefice from the Greek Ritual

Kyrie eleison. [Lord have mercy.] God, our Lord, King of ages, All-powerful and Almighty, You Who made everything and Who transforms everything simply by Your will. You Who in Babylon changed into dew the flames of the “seven-times hotter” furnace and protected and saved the three holy children.

You are the doctor and the physician of our souls. You are the salvation of those who turn to You. We beseech You to make powerless, banish, and drive out every diabolic power, presence and machination; every evil influence, malefice, or evil eye and all evil actions aimed against Your servant _____.

Where there is envy and malice, give us an abundance of goodness, endurance, victory, and charity. O Lord, You Who love man, we beg You to reach out Your powerful hands and Your most high and mighty arms and send the angel of peace over us, to protect us, body and soul. May he keep at bay and vanquish every evil power, every poison or malice invoked against us by corrupt and envious people.

Then, under the protection of Your authority may we sing, in gratitude, “The Lord is my salvation; whom should I fear?” I will not fear evil because You are with me, my God, my strength, my powerful Lord, Lord of peace, Father of all ages.

Yes, Lord our God, be merciful to us, Your image, and save Your servant _____ from every threat or harm from the evil one and protect him/her by raising him/her above all evil.

Prayer Against Every Evil

Spirit of our God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Most Holy Trinity, Immaculate Virgin Mary, angels, archangels, and saints of Heaven, descend upon me. Please purify me, O Lord; mold me, fill me with Yourself, and use me.

Banish all the forces of evil from me; destroy them, vanquish them, so that I can be healthy and do good deeds.

Banish from me all spells, curses, blood oaths, witchcraft, black magic, malefice, maledictions, unholy soul ties, and the evil eye. Banish from me all diabolic infestations, oppressions, and possessions. Banish from me all that is evil and sinful; envy, jealousy, deceitfulness, resentment, and un-forgiveness. Banish from me all physical, psychological, moral, spiritual, and diabolical ailments.

Burn all these evils in hell, that they may never again touch me or any other creature in the entire world.

I command and bid all the evil spirits, forces and powers that molest me -- by the All-powerful and Almighty God, in the Name of Jesus Christ Our Savior, through the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin Mary -- to leave me forever, and to be consigned into the everlasting hell, where they will be bound by Saint Michael the Archangel, Saint Gabriel, Saint Raphael, our guardian angels, and where they will be crushed under the heel of the Immaculate Virgin Mary. Amen.

Anima Christi

Anima Christi [Soul of Christ], sanctify me; Body of Christ, save me; Blood of Christ, inebriate me; Water from the side of Christ, wash me; Passion of Christ, strengthen me.

O good Jesus, hear me; within Your wounds, hide me; let me never be separated from You. From the evil one, deliver me; at the hour of my death, call me, and bid me come to You; that with Your saints, I may praise You forever and ever. Amen.

AN APPROPRIATE RESPONSE

This morning, I believe the Lord showed me how to respond to a prayer request for someone with terminal cancer. I am also aware that this is an appropriate response to many other prayer requests I receive.

I replied: (The woman) should receive the Eucharist every day. For about 15 minutes after receiving Holy Communion, she will have within her, flowing through her body, the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ.

 

After receiving Holy Communion each day, (the woman) should pray:

Lord Jesus, as Your Blood mixes with mine and flows through my veins, purify my blood of all cancer cells. (Pause) Lord Jesus, as You flow through me, touch all the areas of my body that need to be restored to health. (Pause) Jesus, I surrender my life to You; take care of everything. Amen.

Of course, (the woman) must be free of all bitterness, resentment... and un-forgiveness. I also recommend The Surrender Novena -- Total Abandonment to God: http://catholicdeliverance.blogspot.com/2014/09/surrender.html


Although there is no distance in prayer, the charism of healing requires physical touch -- that is, “the laying on of hands.” Obviously, this cannot be done “long distance.” But, you do not need someone like me to receive God's healing touch. There is a more perfect way: the Sacraments of the Catholic Church.

 

Jesus Christ Is In The Eucharist! The doctrine of the Real Presence asserts that in the Holy Eucharist, Jesus is literally and wholly present -- body, blood, soul and divinity -- under the appearances of bread and wine.

“In the Eucharist is the same identical Jesus Who was carried by Mary for nine months in her womb before she delivered Him in Bethlehem. It is the selfsame Jesus Who died on the Cross, rose from the dead and ascended into heaven.” _ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J.

“Do not, therefore, regard the bread and wine as simply that, for they are, according to the Master’s declaration, the body and blood of Christ. Even though the senses suggest to you the other, let faith make you firm. Do not judge in this matter by taste, but be fully assured by faith, not doubting that you have been deemed worthy of the body and blood of Christ.” _ Cyril of Jerusalem [Saint Cyril, Bishop of Jerusalem (348-378) “Doctor of the Church” (Catechetical Discourses)]

TEMPTATIONS OF THE DEVIL

Dictated by St. Catherine of Siena (1347-1380) during a state of ecstasy while in dialog with God the Father.

 

Of the use of temptations, and how every soul in her (his) extremity sees her (his) final place either of pain or of glory, before she (he) is separated from the body.

 

“The Devil, dearest daughter, is the instrument of My Justice to torment the souls who have miserably offended Me. And I have set him in this life to tempt and molest My creatures, not for My creatures to be conquered, but that they may conquer, proving their virtue, and receive from Me the glory of victory. And no one should fear any battle or temptation of the Devil that may come to him, because I have made My creatures strong, and have given them strength of will, fortified in the Blood of My Son, which will, neither Devil nor creature can move, because it is yours, given by Me. You therefore, with free arbitration, can hold it or leave it, according as you please.

 

It is an arm, which, if you place it in the hands of the Devil, straightway becomes a knife, with which he strikes you and slays you. But if man do not give this knife of his will into the hands of the Devil, that is, if he do not consent to his temptations and molestations, he will never be injured by the guilt of sin in any temptation, but will even be fortified by it, when the eye of his intellect is opened to see My love which allowed him to be tempted, so as to arrive at virtue, by being proved. For one does not arrive at virtue except through knowledge of self, and knowledge of Me, which knowledge is more perfectly acquired in the time of temptation, because then man knows himself to be nothing, being unable to lift off himself the pains and vexations which he would flee; and he knows Me in his will, which is fortified by My goodness, so that it does not yield to these thoughts. And he has seen that My love permits these temptations, for the devil is weak, and by himself can do nothing, unless I allow him. And I let him tempt, through love, and not through hatred, that you may conquer, and not that you may be conquered, and that you may come to a perfect knowledge of yourself, and of Me, and that virtue may be proved, for it is not proved except by its contrary.

 

You see, then, that he is my Minister to torture the damned in Hell, and in this life, to exercise and prove virtue in the soul. Not that it is the intention of the Devil to prove virtue in you (for he has not love), but rather to deprive you of it, and this he cannot do, if you do not wish it. Now you see, then, how great is the foolishness of men in making themselves feeble, when I have made them strong, and in putting themselves into the hands of the Devil. Wherefore, know, that at the moment of death, they, having passed their life under the lordship of the Devil (not that they were forced to do so, for as I told you they cannot be forced, but they voluntarily put themselves into his hands), and, arriving at the extremity of their death under this perverse lordship, they await no other judgment than that of their own conscience, and desperately, despairingly, come to eternal damnation. Wherefore Hell, through their hate, surges up to them in the extremity of death, and before they get there, they take hold of it, by means of their lord the Devil.

 

As the righteous, who have lived in charity and died in love, if they have lived perfectly in virtue, illuminated with the light of faith, with perfect hope in the Blood of the Lamb, when the extremity of death comes, see the good which I have prepared for them, and embrace it with the arms of love, holding fast with pressure of love to Me, the Supreme and Eternal Good. And so they taste eternal life before they have left the mortal body, that is, before the soul be separated from the body. Others who have passed their lives, and have arrived at the last extremity of death with an ordinary charity (not in that great perfection), embrace My mercy with the same light of faith and hope that had those perfect ones, but, in them, it is imperfect, for, because they were imperfect, they constrained My mercy, counting My mercy greater than their sins. The wicked sinners do the contrary, for, seeing, with desperation, their destination, they embrace it with hatred, as I told you. So that neither the one nor the other waits for judgment, but, in departing this life, they receive every one their place, as I have told you, and they taste it and possess it before they depart from the body, at the extremity of death -- the damned with hatred and with despair, and the perfect ones with love and the light of faith and with the hope of the Blood. And the imperfect arrive at the place of Purgatory, with mercy and the same faith.”

SPIRITUAL WARFARE

“For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens.” (Ephesians 6:12)

 

“Know that you are now on a great stage where all heaven and earth are watching you. Fight like a knight, so that I can reward you. Do not be unduly fearful, because you are not alone.” _ Diary of St. Faustina (1760)  

The Rosary is our weapon against the world, the flesh, the Devil and his evil spirits. And living a Sacramental life [Daily Mass (when possible) and frequent Confession] is the best defense we have against the enemy.

POWER OF THE BLESSING

Evil spirits often speak, rant and rave through people. The good news is that we have the power to silence them. When these spiritual attacks occur, immediately respond with a blessing:

“Lord Jesus, please bless this person / 

these people.”

“Lord Jesus, please bless everyone

in this house.”

- etcetera -

The blessing will drive the evil spirits away, and the person will become quiet. (It may take a few moments for the person to calm down, but you will have defused the situation.) When we bless those who curse us, deliverance occurs.

When entering a building

(house, office, store, church…)

Or a car, bus, train, plane…

ALWAYS ASK JESUS TO BLESS EVERYONE.

“Lord Jesus, please bless everyone 

in this place.”

“Lord Jesus, please bless everyone 

I come in contact with.”

This will prevent the enemy from using others against you. Evil spirits cause people to behave badly. But you can protect yourself.

Before answering the phone

and before making a call,

ALWAYS ASK JESUS TO BLESS
THE PHONE CALL -- TO BLESS
THE PERSON ON THE OTHER END.

“Lord Jesus, please bless

this phone call.”

“Lord Jesus, please bless _____ 

(the person you are calling).”

This will prevent the enemy from interfering with your conversation. Evil spirits cause confusion, misunderstandings, arguments… But you can protect yourself.

PLEADING THE BLOOD OF JESUS

(APPLYING THE BLOOD OF JESUS)

A Defensive Prayer for Protection

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

my spouse and children.” 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

my family, home and property.” 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

my church and on all church property.” 

- etcetera - 

Evil spirits, and people under their influence, will avoid everything covered with the Blood of Jesus.

An Offensive Spiritual Weapon for Deliverance

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on my mind. 

I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

every thought in my mind.” 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on

my body.”

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

every evil spirit attacking my mind 

and body.” 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on

the air and atmosphere in this place.”

Use this spiritual weapon when you are harassed by impure thoughts, attacked with strong temptation, tempted to commit sin… when thoughts distract you during Mass, interfere with your prayer life, torment you during the night, preventing a good sleep… when you are afflicted with depressive or obsessive-compulsive thoughts… when your thoughts falsely accuse you of wrongdoing… when your thoughts are overly critical of yourself… when your thoughts become confused or “out of control”… when your thoughts are not your own…

St. Faustina Kowalska

From the Diary of St. Faustina, “Divine Mercy in My Soul”: Conference on Spiritual Warfare, Cracow-Pradnik

June 2, 1938 _ “My daughter, I want to teach you about spiritual warfare. Never trust in yourself, but abandon yourself totally to My Will. In desolation, darkness and various doubts, have recourse to Me and to your spiritual director. He will always answer you in My Name. Do not bargain with any temptation; lock yourself immediately in My Heart and, at the first opportunity, reveal the temptation to the confessor. Put your self-love in the last place, so that it does not taint your deeds. Bear with yourself with great patience. Do not neglect interior mortifications. Always justify to yourself the opinions of your superiors and of your confessor. Shun murmurers like a plague. Let all act as they like; you are to act as I want you to.

Observe the rule as faithfully as you can. If someone causes you trouble, think what good you can do for the person who caused you to suffer. Do not pour out your feelings. Be silent when you are rebuked. Do not ask everyone’s opinion, but only the opinion of your confessor; be as frank and simple as a child with him. Do not become discouraged by ingratitude. Do not examine with curiosity the roads down which I lead you. When boredom and discouragement beat against your heart, run away from yourself and hide in My Heart. Do not fear struggle; courage itself often intimidates temptations, and they dare not attack us.

Always fight with the deep conviction that I am with you. Do not be guided by feeling, because it is not always under your control; but all merit lies in the will. Always depend upon your superiors, even in the smallest things. I will not delude you with prospects of peace and consolations; on the contrary, prepare for great battles. Know that you are now on a great stage where all heaven and earth are watching you. Fight like a knight, so that I can reward you. Do not be unduly fearful, because you are not alone.” (1760)

WINNING THE BATTLE FOR THE MIND

Sometimes, the enemy attacks me early in the morning before I am fully awake. Thoughts of sexual fantasy suddenly invade my dreams. (I have been living a celibate life since 1995.) It is temptation when I am most vulnerable. And I am often aware that I am being protected -- that a spiritual battle is being fought over me.

But I do have free will; and sometimes, though not fully awake, I fall into the trap -- the sin of sexual fantasy. One morning, God gave me a prayer to fight off these attacks:

Lord Jesus,

I plead Your Most Precious Blood 

on my mind.

Lord Jesus,

I plead Your Most Precious Blood

on every thought in my mind.

Amen.

Use this prayer when you are being harassed by impure thoughts… when you are attacked with strong temptation… when you are tempted to commit sin.

Use this prayer when thoughts distract you during Holy Mass… when thoughts interfere with your prayer life.

Use this prayer when your thoughts become confused… when thoughts torment you during the night, preventing a good sleep.

Use this prayer when you are haunted by past sins -- sins that have already been confessed in the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

Use this prayer when you have thoughts that tear you down, accuse you of anything… and cause you to question your self-worth.

Use this prayer when you are afflicted with depressive or obsessive-compulsive thoughts.

Use this prayer when your thoughts are “out of control” … when your thoughts are not your own.

AND FOR OTHERS, PRAY:

Lord Jesus,

I plead Your Most Precious Blood 

on _____’s mind.

Lord Jesus,

I plead Your Most Precious Blood

on every thought in _____’s mind.

Amen.

Soon after I began to use this spiritual weapon,

the early morning attacks stopped.

HOW DEMONS AFFECT OBJECTS

When people cease to believe in the One True God, they will believe in anything: materialism, superstition, the Occult… spiritism, witchcraft, divination… animism (the worship of spirits in trees, rocks, rivers…) and/or the worship of mother earth (Gaia). The worship of idols of pagan gods and goddesses is the worship of demons. 

Demons can affect objects directly, as in a case of the physical movement of objects… or preternatural effects on lights and other electrical appliances (demonic infestation). But demons usually affect objects indirectly, by tempting people to do evil (like the desecration of churches). 

Demons can also “attach to” or “reside with” objects: New Age crystals, idols (gods and goddesses of false religions), objects used in pagan rituals (ceremonial masks, candles, knives, chalices, cauldrons...), objects of the Occult (amulets, good luck charms… Ouija boards, Tarot cards), cursed books written by Occultists (like Helena P. Blavatsky, Alice Bailey and Aleister Crowley) and objects used in witchcraft, voodoo, Santeria and Satanism... 

Such objects can be cursed and bring a dark presence into your home. Cursed objects can serve as a conduit for evil. They can be the source of a demonic infestation. This can cause fear, obsessive thoughts, emotional stress, anger, arguments… anxiety, depression, nightmares, insomnia, sleep paralysis… headaches, nausea, digestion problems… and other physical ailments due to a weakened immune system. Any object connected to a dark, diabolical force will carry a “spiritual attachment.” 

Cursed objects (like objects of the Occult) must be removed from the home. They must be destroyed in such a way that they no longer resemble what they once were and/or blessed with holy water and buried. (Some people bury cursed objects with a blessed St. Benedict medal.) 

~ * * * ~ 

The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt: (...) take some of its blood (the blood of a lamb) and apply it to the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses (...) But for you the blood will mark the houses where you are. Seeing the blood, I will pass over you; thereby, when I strike the land of Egypt, no destructive blow will come upon you. (Exodus 12:1,7,13) 

The blood of the Lamb protects.

Pleading the blood of Jesus on an object (or, applying the blood of Jesus to an object) will drive away evil spirits. It will also protect an object from people under the influence of evil spirits. (People who desecrate Catholic statues are under the influence of evil spirits.) 

~ * * * ~

Before my friend Ashok left for India, he offered me a statue -- an idol of Ganesh, a Hindu god. I accepted this gift because I know that evil spirits can “attach” to idols of false gods. (The worship of Hindu gods and goddesses is the worship of demons!) So, I accepted the gift. My intention was to protect others from something that could possibly be harmful. (Bringing such an object into one's home can be the cause of a demonic infestation.)

I pled the blood of Jesus on (I applied the blood of Jesus to) the idol of Ganesh. And when Ashok was gone, I destroyed it.

~ * * * ~

Any object exposed to a diabolical force can carry a “spiritual attachment.” For example, antique furniture can have a spiritual attachment and bring a dark presence into your home. [Always spray antique furniture with (a mist of) holy water.]

~ * * * ~

“From long experience I have learned that there is nothing like 'holy water' to put devils to flight.” _ St. Teresa of Avila 

Sacramentals such as the crucifix, blessed medals and icons, exorcised salt and holy water can help in restoring peace to your home. (I have used holy water to clear demon-infested homes.)

Sacramentals are sacred signs instituted by the Church. [These blessed objects] prepare men to receive the fruit [the chief effect] of the Sacraments and sanctify different circumstances of life [various occasions in life are rendered holy]. (Catechism of the Catholic Church #1677) 

Like many Catholics, I wear a blessed Miraculous Medal: “O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.” And in my home, I have a blessed canvas of The Divine Mercy.

HOW TO COPE WHEN UNDER A CURSE

By Fr. John H. Hampsch, CMF

One of the most disconcerting types of suffering is that which results from being targeted by another person as the object of an evil curse, (similar to a hex, which is a witchcraft-induced evil spell). A curse or hex may take any of countless manifestations; and, in many cases, the victim may never know who the culprit is who imprecated the curse or hex.

A curse may be cultural (Gypsy, Indian, Italian, etc.); it may be of an Occult or Satanic origin, or simply an act of perverse retaliation as a kind of vendetta -- simply an enmity-engendered hatred from another person. Invoking curses is a frequent practice among those involved in any of the many evil forms of the Occult, such as Santeria, Voodoo, Obeah, etc.

Anyone who invokes a curse is certainly (knowingly or otherwise) under demonic influence. By invoking a curse such a person commits the most heinous sin against the virtue of charity that is possible; it delights Satan, but calls down the vengeance of God upon the one responsible. The most serious type of curse is one that turns a good Christian into an irreligious or anti-religious person. The most difficult type of curse to break is one invoked by a family member or by a living or deceased ancestor.

The following may be regarded as effective Catholic norms for responding, if you are unfortunate enough to be targeted by a curse or hex:

1) Your success in drawing down God’s power against a curse will be in proportion to the level of your faith. In the words of Jesus, “According to your faith it will be done” (Matthew 9:29). It helps to elicit a faith-filled prayer of deliverance from a priest, a mature Christian or a prayer group. Like healing or any prayer-induced miracle, curse-lifting is not a frequent occurrence. Why? Because most people pridefully overestimate their own faith; they are satisfied with their low level of faith that is enough to induce them to pray frantically for relief, but not enough to humbly beg for a deeper degree of faith that would trigger that sought-for relief. Praying for a cure is less important than praying for enough faith to induce that cure. The latter must come first, as Jesus taught when correcting his apostles’ failed attempt at exorcism (Mark 9:19,23).

2) Make frequent and fervent use of the Sacraments -- especially by very humble and contrite confessions, and by receiving Communion with exquisite devotion and love. The Enemy’s power, even when operating through malicious human agents, is vastly reduced when these Sacraments are received, not routinely, but humbly and devoutly.

3) Never reverse a curse by calling down harm on the person or persons responsible for this flood of evil. (See 1 Peter 3:9 and Romans 12:17-21).

4) Stand meditatively and expectantly beneath the cross of Jesus to be covered symbolically by His Precious Blood as a shield to deflect the onslaughts of evil in the afflicting curse. By that “atoning blood” (Romans 3:24) shed on the cross, the forces of evil are disarmed and conquered, as Paul says (Colossians 2:15).

5) Do the four things that Jesus asks us to do in relating to our enemies, like those who invoke curses on us; these are outlined in Luke 6:27-28. The four things are: Love your enemy, do good to your enemy, pray for your enemy and call down God’s special blessings on your enemy (see also 1 Peter 3:9). Love of enemies is a challenge, but loving in this context does not mean liking. It means benevolent love, or “agape” love, as St. Thomas Aquinas says. This love consists in desiring good for one’s enemies. Yearn for their salvation, not their damnation; desire that they repent and become holy. In this endeavor, St. Augustine’s maxim is pertinent: Hate the sin but love the sinner, as God does.

Every Christian must sincerely desire that bad persons become good, like the great terrorist, Saul, who, when converted became St. Paul, a champion of Christianity; or, like the thief, Dismas, when dying next to Jesus, was canonized by him: “This day you will be with me in Paradise” (Luke 23:43). In the words of Jude 22, “Snatch others from the fire and save them…show mercy.” James 5:20 speaks of the amazing benefits of converting a sinner from his life of sin. If you turn from sin the one cursing you, that enemy will befriend you for all eternity.

6) Until the time arrives for you to be released from the curse, strive to conform to even hidden moves of Providence, with faith-reliance on Jesus as demon-evictor (Mark 16:17). Offer up your sufferings that result from the curse or curses. Like all suffering, disappointment, adversity, etc., this unique type of suffering should be united -- even joyfully -- with Jesus’ redemptive suffering (1 Peter 4:13). Don’t waste suffering that could otherwise lead to your sanctification and consequent reward. Carrying this cross courageously infuriates the Devil and his demons lurking behind this evil. Sustaining the affliction will grace-fill your soul, help other souls, and reward you for all eternity (see Hebrews 6:10-11).

7) For curse-breaking, invoke the angels and saints, your guardian angel and patron saint, Archangel Michael, and the especially the sinless Virgin Mary who is prophesied to crush the head of the sinful serpent (Genesis 3:15).

Of course, you should seek relief from the effects of a curse, as you would for sickness or any hurtful situation. But meanwhile, as you await your release, use your curse-caused suffering; though it is admittedly hurtful, it may well be the very sacrifice used by God to obtain salvation for your persecutors, as well as your own sanctification and your unimaginable heavenly reward.

The bottom line: After our lifelong struggle against evil, the last chapter of the Bible tells how it will all end. With Christ, we are the winners!

BREAKING CURSES

Practitioners of black magic (witchcraft) evoke (summon) malevolent powers (demons) to kill, steal, injure, cause misfortune or destruction… A curse will create an “opening” (portal) for evil spirits to attack another and cause considerable damage…

Some signs of a curse can include: a history of mental/emotional breakdown, repeated/chronic/hereditary illness, accident-proneness, repeated miscarriages, a history of marriage breakup, a history/cycle of poverty… and/or a family history of suicides and unnatural deaths.

 

“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

In the Name of Jesus, I rebuke and banish from me all curses, hexes, spells and malefice... In the Name of Jesus, I rebuke and banish from me all voodoo practices, black magic and witchcraft... In the Name of Jesus, I rebuke and banish from me all Satanic rituals, blood oaths and unholy soul ties... In the Name of Jesus, I rebuke and banish from me all diabolical incantations, infestations and oppressions... In the Name of Jesus, I rebuke and banish from me all evil wishes, and the evil eye... In the Name of Jesus, I rebuke and banish from me all fasting prayers, not of the Lord, that have been sent my way, or have been passed down through my generational bloodline.

In the Name of Jesus, I take authority over all of them, and I command that they go back where they came from and be replaced with a blessing.

May the waters of my baptism now flow back through my family line and remove every evil influence. Amen.

In the Name of Jesus, I break every curse, hex, spell… and I bind all black magic and witchcraft directed against me. In the Name of Jesus, I break every curse, hex, spell… and I bind all black magic and witchcraft directed against my husband/wife. In the Name of Jesus, I break every curse, hex, spell… and I bind all black magic and witchcraft directed against my family and home. [Do this three times.]

Lord Jesus, I ask forgiveness for, and I renounce all negative inner vows that I have made. And I ask You, Lord Jesus, to release me from any bondage they may have held in me.

Lord Jesus, I plead Your Most Precious Blood on every aspect of my life, and on all my relationships. “Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over me. Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over all my relationships.”

Lord Jesus, I ask You to cleanse me from all impurities. And I ask You, Lord Jesus, to deliver me from all that is evil and unclean. “Jesus, I trust in You; Mary, Take Over.”

“Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, (and) spread the effect of grace of thy Flame of Love over all of humanity, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.”

“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

When you receive the Eucharist, for about 15 minutes, you have within you, flowing through your veins, the Blood of Jesus Christ. The Blood of Jesus Christ is now mixing with your blood -- and it is one! This is the time to pray:

“Lord Jesus, as You flow through me, touch the brokenness, the physical ailments within me; heal me. Lord Jesus, as Your Blood flows through my veins, cleanse my family line from every curse, hex and spell. Amen.”

PRAYER FOR THE HEALING OF YOUR FAMILY TREE

“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

 

Heavenly Father,

I come before You as Your child, in great need of Your help; I have physical health needs, emotional needs, spiritual needs, and interpersonal needs. Many of my problems have been caused by my own fault, failure, neglect and sinfulness, for which I humbly beg Your Forgiveness. But Father, I also ask You to forgive the sins of my ancestors whose failures have left their effects on me in the form of unwanted tendencies, behavior patterns and defects in body, mind and spirit. Heal me, O Lord, of all these disorders. Amen.

Heavenly Father,

With Your help I sincerely forgive everyone, especially living or dead members of my family tree, who have directly offended me or my loved ones in any way, or those whose sins have resulted in our present sufferings and disorders. In the Name of Your Son Jesus, and by the Power of His Holy Spirit, I ask You, Eternal Father, to deliver me and my entire family tree from the influence of the Devil. Free all living and dead members of my family tree, including those in adoptive relationships, and those in extended family relationships, from every contaminating form of bondage. By Your loving concern for us, Eternal Father, and by the Most Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus, I beg You to extend Your Blessing to me and to all my living and deceased relatives. Heal every negative effect transmitted through all past generations and prevent such negative effects in future generations of my family tree. Amen.

Heavenly Father,

I symbolically place the Cross of Our Lord Jesus over the head of each person in my family tree, and between each generation; I ask You to let the cleansing Blood of Jesus purify the bloodlines in my family lineage. Set Your protective angels to encamp around us, and permit Archangel Raphael, the patron of healing, to administer Your Divine Healing Power to all of us, even in areas of genetic disability. Give special Power to our family members’ guardian angels to heal, protect, guide and encourage each of us in all our needs. Let Your Healing Power be released at this very moment, and let it continue as long as Your Sovereignty permits. Amen.    [Pause]

Heavenly Father,

In our family tree, O Lord, replace all bondage with a Holy bonding in family love. And let there be an ever-deeper bonding with You, Eternal Father, by the Holy Spirit, to Your Son Jesus. Let the Family of the Holy Trinity pervade our family with Its tender, warm, Loving Presence, so that our family may recognize and manifest That Love in all our relationships. All of our unknown needs we include with this petition that we pray in Jesus’ Precious Name. Amen.

St. Joseph, Patron of family life,

pray for us.

 

“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

TRUST ME

Do you believe that I am the Son of God?
And do you believe that I died for all men
and women and that I rose from the dead?
Then why do you continue to be distracted
and anxious about your loved ones?
Do they not also belong to me?
Would I refuse to work in their lives
just as I work in yours? 

I have not put you in charge of
redeeming them.
I have already done that.
Nor do you have the power to
change their hearts;
Only my Holy Spirit searches
and knows the deepest
hearts of men and women,
and only He can heal their deepest wounds. 

Your task is to love, to forgive, to pray for
them and to turn them over to Me.
Come closer to Me yourself
and I will do the rest.
TRUST ME!

SEVERING SOUL TIES

Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take Christ’s members and make them the members of a prostitute (or a sodomite, witch, psychic…)? Of course not!
[Or] do you not know that anyone who joins himself to a prostitute (or a sodomite, witch, psychic…) becomes one body with her (him)? For “the two,” it says, “will become one flesh.” (Matthew 19:6; Genesis 2:24) [And the demons in his/her body will have the right to invade and inhabit your body. (Demons are transferred through sexual intercourse.)]
But whoever is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with Him.
Avoid immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the immoral person sins against his own body (and opens a door to the demonic).
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? For you have been purchased at a price. Therefore, glorify God in your body.
(1 Corinthians 6:15-20)

"In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit. Amen."

Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins. I renounce all pride, avarice, envy, anger and un-forgiveness. I renounce lust and all acts of fornication, adultery and homosexuality. I renounce gluttony and sloth. I renounce witchcraft, Santeria, the Occult, Satanism and the New Age.

Lord Jesus, I repent of joining with one practicing or dabbling in witchcraft, Santeria, the Occult, Satanism or the New Age. I repent of all my sinful relationships, and I renounce all unholy soul ties. I choose to forgive everyone in my life, both past and present. (And I will confess my sins in the Sacrament of Reconciliation as soon as possible.)

“In the Name of Jesus, I sever all unholy soul ties between me and every human being, alive and dead.” (“In the Name of Jesus, I sever all unholy soul ties between my spouse and every human being, alive and dead.” / “In the Name of Jesus, I sever all unholy soul ties between each one of my children and every human being, alive and dead.”)

[Lord Jesus, I repent of having sexual relations with a spirit husband / spirit wife. “In the Name of Jesus, I sever the evil soul tie between me and my spirit husband / spirit wife."

(Adapt to meet your specific circumstances.)]

“In the Name of Jesus, I break every curse, hex, spell… and I bind all witchcraft directed against me.” (“In the Name of Jesus, I break every curse, hex, spell… and I bind all witchcraft directed against my spouse.” / “In the Name of Jesus, I break every curse, hex, spell… and I bind all witchcraft directed against my family and home.”)

“Most Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over me.” (“Most Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over my spouse.” / “Most Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over my family and home.”)

Lord Jesus, I surrender my life (and family) to You. May Your Divine Will reign in me. Amen.

"In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit. Amen."

Through the Sacraments, we receive Sanctifying Grace. The Sacrament of Confession is more powerful than the rite of exorcism. Living a Sacramental life is the best defense we have against the Devil. Attend Daily Mass and receive Holy Communion as often as possible.

OUR SECRET WEAPON

Pleading the Blood of Jesus 

“Pleading the Blood of Jesus” (that is, Applying the Blood of Jesus) is both a defensive prayer for protection and an offensive weapon for deliverance. 

 A Prayer for Protection 

Evil spirits cause people to behave badly. Therefore, we “plead the Blood of Jesus” for protection -- protection from evil spirits and from people under their influence. Everything we cover with the Blood of Jesus is protected. We “plead the Blood of Jesus” on our loved ones, our homes, our property... on everything we want protected. 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

my spouse and children.” 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

my family, home and property.” 

Statues Desecrated at St. Ann's Catholic Church, 

Union City, CA 

We can prevent the desecration of Catholic churches, schools, cemeteries and statues... by “pleading the Blood of Jesus” on them. This will protect them from diabolical acts of desecration. 

Behind every act of desecration is an evil spirit. Evil spirits, and people under their influence, will avoid anything covered with the Blood of Jesus. 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

my church and on all church property.” 

- etcetera - 

~ * * * ~

A Spiritual Weapon 

Evil spirits can put thoughts in our minds. Evil spirits can project images on our minds. They can also invade our dreams. 

Sex demons can invade our dreams with pornographic thoughts and images of sexual fantasy. I have experienced such attacks early in the morning before fully awake. 

One morning, God gave me a prayer to fight off these attacks. I was inspired to “plead the Blood of Jesus ‘on my mind, and on every thought in my mind.’” And it worked. 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on my mind. 

I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

every thought in my mind.” 

One morning, it was more than a dream. It was an intense seduction that was difficult to resist. I used the prayer God had given me for such attacks; but this time, it wasn’t enough. Then I was inspired to “plead the Blood of Jesus ‘on every evil spirit attacking my mind and body.’” And it worked. My mind cleared, and I felt my body ease... 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

every evil spirit attacking my mind 

and body.” 

“Pleading the Blood of Jesus” is Our Secret Weapon 

Against the Attacks of the Enemy.

MANY THOUGHTS ARE SPIRITS

 

Thoughts come from three places:

the subconscious mind, God,

and the Devil.

The holy angels are messengers; they carry messages from God to us. The fallen angels (a.k.a., evil spirits, demons) are also messengers, but of evil. Messages from angels -- both holy and fallen -- come to us as “thoughts.” 

Angels and demons can put thoughts
in our minds.
Angels and demons can also project images
on our minds. 

One day while praying the Rosary, I was distracted by a sudden image in my mind; it was pornographic and disturbing. Suddenly I realized I was being attacked. It was an evil spirit projecting an evil image on my mind.

The Devil does not want us to pray to God. And the Devil is afraid of the Blessed Virgin Mary! Evil spirits will attack our minds with all kinds of distractions. They can also cause us to become drowsy and fall asleep during prayer -- especially during the Rosary. 

God’s angels and Satan’s fallen angels are engaged in “spiritual combat.” This spiritual combat takes place in the “minds” of men -- and in the “heavens” above them (Revelation 12:7-9). 

Satan assaults our minds with temptations, obsessive thoughts and evil images... These evil thoughts and/or images enter our minds through Satan’s messengers, the evil spirits. We cannot stop temptations -- but we can chase away evil, obsessive thoughts and images. We can chase away the evil spirits: 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on my mind. 

I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

every thought in my mind.” 

“I plead the Blood of Jesus on 

every evil spirit attacking my mind 

and body.” 

Use these spiritual weapons when you are harassed by impure thoughts, attacked with strong temptation, tempted to commit sin… when thoughts distract you during Mass, interfere with your prayer life, torment you during the night, preventing a good sleep… when you are afflicted with depressive or obsessive-compulsive thoughts… when your thoughts falsely accuse you of wrongdoing… when your thoughts are overly critical of yourself… when your thoughts become confused or “out of control”… when your thoughts are not your own…

Many negative, self-defeating, self-destructive thoughts come from evil spirits. If we do not reject them, we own them -- and when they become ours, we give them life. We give them power over us. And when we give voice to these negative, self-defeating, self-destructive thoughts from evil spirits, we can curse ourselves, and others. There is power in the spoken word.

Victims of demonic attack often wonder if the thoughts filling their heads are really their own. Have you ever wondered about those witty, biting comments that suddenly “come to mind” -- and roll off your tongue -- during a heated argument? Have you ever wondered about those perfect responses that cut so deep?

Why do people say horrible things -- things they really don’t mean -- during a heated argument? How can this happen within the security of a loving home, a faithful family? How do people know what buttons to push?

Evil spirits whisper comments in our ears, and we use them to hurt one another. Evil spirits cause confusion, misunderstandings, arguments, fights, division… and war.

Evil spirits inflame passions, inspire criminal behavior, provoke violence… suggest and embolden sacrilegious acts. Behind every act of desecration is an evil spirit!

Our struggle is not with flesh and blood
(Ephesians 6:12). 

We are caught in a spiritual war --
a war for the souls of men.
