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.

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. We ask You this through the intercession of our Most Blessed, glorious Lady, Mary ever Virgin, Mother of God, of the most splendid archangels and all Your saints. Amen.

~ * * * ~

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.

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)

Amen.

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

Defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness
and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the Power of God,
cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.

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.

MENTAL ILLNESS AND THE DEMONIC

Catholic priests work with mental-health professionals to discern what is mental illness and what is demonic possession. In fact, the Catholic Church demands this cooperation before considering an exorcism.

Exorcism _ St. Francis Borgia 

Listed in the Roman Ritual are five indicators of possible demonic possession: 1) speaking foreign or ancient languages of which the possessed has no prior knowledge; 2) supernatural abilities and strength; 3) knowledge of hidden or remote things which the possessed has no way of knowing; 4) an aversion to anything holy; 5) profuse blasphemy and/or sacrilege. When these (obvious) signs of possible demonic possession are absent, the “rite of exorcism” is usually denied by the local bishop.

In his book, An Exorcist Tells His Story, Fr. Gabriele Amorth writes about Demonic Possession: “This occurs when Satan takes full possession of the body (not the soul); he speaks and acts without the knowledge or consent of the victim, who therefore is morally blameless.” Fr. Amorth advises, “to fix a set ‘model’ for demonic possession would be a serious mistake; the affliction runs the gamut of symptoms and severity.”

There are other (less obvious) signs of possible demonic possession (and partial possession), but these are usually considered signs of (and dismissed as) demonic oppression or obsession -- or misdiagnosed as mental illness. Therefore, the rite of exorcism is not warranted.

~ * * * ~

While it is true that "full possession" is rare, "partial possession" is quite common. Partial possession exists when a demon enters one’s body and takes control over a specific area of one’s life, a specific aspect of one’s character and personality...

The partially possessed person is "demonized" -- that is, has an evil spirit inside the body. Such a person may sense that something is wrong -- but no connection is made with the demonic. One can be full of anger, have uncontrollable rage, and be violent... One can be full of lust and have insatiable desires or unnatural passions... One can be full of fear, have crippling phobias or experience paralysis... Although one is able to function normally most of the time, one suffers internally with something from which there seems to be no relief. The demon remains hidden within the body -- until it is provoked by a priest or deliverance minister. And when the demon feels threatened, there will be manifestations that expose it.

~ * * * ~

Priests work with mental-health professionals to discern what is mental illness and what is demonic possession. But during this time of testing and observation, a truly possessed person may not necessarily show signs of possession.

[“The fallen angels did not lose their natural knowledge by their sin; nor did they lose their angelic intellect.” _ Saint Thomas Aquinas, The Summa Theologica]

Demons often hide within the victim’s body during the discernment process... Observation by a mental-health professional poses no threat to them. However, provocation by a priest will cause demons to manifest and reveal themselves. But today this rarely happens.

~ * * * ~

Schizophrenia _ People diagnosed with schizophrenia can experience bizarre hallucinations, delusions… disorganized thinking and hearing internal voices. But are these only psychotic manifestations?

Allentown, PA (2011)A psychiatric nurse took me to see a woman who was locked away in a private, psychiatric facility. The woman was suicidal and being treated for “schizophrenia.” Although heavily medicated and sedated, the voices in her head did not stop. She described a constant “chatter” that would neither give her a moment of peace nor allow her to sleep at night.

This woman knew she was not schizophrenic. She exclaimed, “NOT VOICES -- CHATTER!” But the staff at this psychiatric facility did not understand what she was saying. Rather, they kept her heavily medicated and sedated with powerful, antipsychotic drugs and locked up behind closed doors.

In one email, the woman wrote: “I’ve had soooo many out of my body experiences (supernatural abilities) again. I’ll have to explain more explicit about that… I have had two kinds of light. the bad, and the good. each side was big experience… but I feel like I have no god, and he doesn’t exist, I always feel so lost, alone. and this is why I get suicidal thought, cause I feel no one is helping me, and I lose all interests, but dear, death is here, it’s touching me (physical contact by a demon). I feel like life is sad...death is better. death is perfection. like suicides my job. do you really think I will go to hell if I kill myself? or is your god so trusting and forgiving, and he’d just take me cause he loves everybody and doesn’t want them to suffer?”

In another email, she wrote: “…I’m not used to all this god stuff, I’ve really only known the other side (the dark side), and all the things we would have to do to those animals… and their was lots of blood involved, cutting, and a whole lot of sexual and physical abuse (Satanic ritual abuse; profuse blasphemy and/or sacrilege). I had five abortions from that sick man. and I didn’t want his evil parts of me in my body, so I aborted them all. It was constant rape (extreme trauma) and he’d put some kind of powder in the blood to drink (black magic). I think it made us in more of his control, so we couldn’t resist, so it made it easier for him to control us. I cant talk no more,....they (?) want me off the computer…”

I knew the psychiatric nurse from another case; and, the possessed woman was one of her patients when she worked in the state hospital. I still remember how (unnaturally) cold the woman’s (temperature-controlled) room was -- evidence of a demonic presence.

~ * * * ~

Q: Can you imagine how many possessed people are heavily medicated and sedated with powerful, antipsychotic drugs and locked up behind closed doors in state hospitals and private, psychiatric facilities?

A: However many there may be, one thing is certain. Their numbers are growing!

Abandoning Christianity, many people are turning to the Occult… Living in a hostile and aggressive secularist (Godless) society/culture, we can expect to encounter more and more people under the influence of the demonic.

~ * * * ~

Dissociative Identity Disorder / Multiple Personality Disorder _ People diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder can experience dissociative amnesia… and “switching” to alternate identities when under stress. But are these only psychotic manifestations?

Oakland, CA (1991) _ A young woman had been misdiagnosed as having MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder). Her psychotherapist did not realize that her “multiple personalities” were actually demons.

[The reality of “Satanic ritual abuse” has been investigated, and denied by many, over the years... but God has allowed me to witness the “trauma” -- the aftermath -- of Satanic ritual abuse.]


IS SATANIC RITUAL ABUSE REAL? 
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING TESTIMONY.

In August 1991, I was told by a friend about two people who were good in spiritual deliverance. I wasn’t sure I wanted to talk to them. I was afraid that they would tell me that I had to make drastic changes in my life. I wasn’t prepared to give up the lifestyle I was leading.

Since I was very young, I had been involved with a Satanic cult. I was born into the cult and forced to perform hideous acts. Because of all this abuse I developed severe emotional problems. My therapist thought I was a multiple personality -- and I was convinced that these separate entities were good and that they should be there. I enjoyed being different people at times and I would often ask these entities to perform tasks that I didn’t want to (perform).

But life was not all calm for me. I was often suicidal, very depressed, always in some sort of crisis and very self-destructive. I wanted to leave the Satanic cult, but the “personalities” kept drawing me back to the cult. I hated going to the Satanic rituals, but I couldn’t stop. I was so oppressed I couldn’t think of anything but the horrible experiences I had gone through. I was preoccupied with revenge and self-pity. I was constantly reaching out for help, which I sometimes didn’t get. I burned out friends because I was so emotionally needy.

God prepared me to accept what Gene and Mary had to say to me. I didn’t want to believe at first that these “personalities” were actually demons. I didn’t want them to leave. I liked them, cherished them, and didn’t know how to live without them. But when Gene and Mary prayed for me, I knew they were right. Several times I was sick with a fever or in pain, and when Gene prayed, I was healed. The demon “personalities” knew that Gene and Mary were Christians and were able to help deliver me. The demons spat at them and wanted to bite them. The demons cursed them and yelled and screamed.

But when I wanted them to leave, they had no right to stay when Gene and Mary commanded them to leave. So many demons were cast out, some went easily, and others took a lot of work. Memories had to be brought to the surface, hurt emotions had to be healed and forgiveness given to the perpetrators before some demons would leave. We met together many times and Gene and Mary were so loving and gentle to me. Though there were a few times when Gene became firm because I wouldn’t listen or was being stubborn.

Most of all the demons are gone and much healing has taken place. I feel so much better. No longer do I wallow in self-pity or obsessively think about the horrible tortures I had endured. No longer do I hate my parents who did all this to me. I know that God has restored to me all the things that Satan had stolen from me. I know that God has blessed me and has turned a horrible past into a promising future.

-Linda

Demonic Possession occurs within the body. Demonic Oppression occurs outside the body. Demonic Obsession occurs in the mind.

In his book, An Exorcist Tells His Story, Fr. Gabriele Amorth explains:

Demonic Oppression _ “There is no possession, loss of consciousness, or involuntary action and word,” just severe to mild events that plague the individual. Fr. Amorth points to Job’s severe afflictions and St. Paul’s thorn in his flesh (2 Corinthians 12:7). Fr. Amorth reveals that he and his fellow exorcists “run into a great number of people who have been struck by the devil in their health, jobs or relationships.”

Demonic Obsession _ “Symptoms include sudden attacks, at times ongoing, of obsessive thoughts, sometimes even rationally absurd, but of such nature that the victim is unable to free himself.” Moreover, “the obsessed person lives in a perpetual state of prostration, desperation, and attempts at suicide. Almost always, obsession influences dreams.”

DELIVERANCE AND INNER HEALING

 
Many Protestant deliverance ministers behave as though freedom from the demonic is the ultimate objective. One of these once told me, “I’ll have you know that I am ‘triple-mantled’ for deliverance.” I don’t even know what that means.

Deliverance is part of God’s healing ministry. And deliverance -- apart from inner healing -- is abuse. The ultimate objective should be “inner healing and wholeness.”

“Nature abhors a vacuum.” The same is true in the spiritual realm. Deliverance from evil spirits creates a “spiritual vacuum.” Therefore, the immediate need (for one who is already baptized) is for the “infilling of the Holy Spirit” and prayer for “inner healing.” Then, through Daily Eucharist and frequent Confession, one will continue to be healed and become more whole. Sanctifying Grace received in the Sacraments fills the “spiritual vacuum.”

~ * * * ~

Some time ago, I came to realize that many of the healings I witness are, in fact, deliverances. A woman once exclaimed, “When you prayed for me, I felt something lift!” It was an oppressing spirit that left her -- because of the anointing (that is, the charism of healing).

For some cases, all that is required is a touch and a prayer; other cases require some spiritual warfare. And all that is required of me are simple commands “in the Name of Jesus,” as inspired by the Holy Spirit. [I do not perform exorcisms. Only a priest may perform an exorcism -- and only with the permission of his Bishop.] It is this charism that causes demons to manifest, and ultimately leave.

The charism that heals also delivers!

San Francisco, CA (September 1990)

_ I attended a Mario Murillo Crusade where I (a Catholic layman) was welcomed to pray for people in the ministry tent. One night I was led to three women. As I approached, one of them became silent and lowered her head. When I looked into her face, I saw her eyes “roll backward” into her skull. Only the white of her eyes could be seen.

The woman was possessed -- but the demons did not begin to manifest until I approached her. It was the presence of the anointing (the charism) that caused these demons to manifest.

This was my “introduction” to the deliverance side of God’s healing ministry. [God is in control, and I do my part.] I followed the inspirations of the Holy Spirit, and the woman was set free.

Days later, I was informed that this woman was one of two lesbians who had made a “suicide pact” with the Devil. That night, she had planned to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge -- but God intervened, and led her to the Crusade (below the bridge) where He had placed me.

Diocese of Arlington, VA (October 2010)

_ After a healing service in Northern Virginia, a psychotherapist asked me to pray with her patients. Then she took me to see one of her patients believed to be a “locutionist.” [A locution is a form of private revelation, similar to an apparition, but rather than being seen a locution is heard or received internally.]

The locutions were convincing -- but diabolical. The woman’s psychotherapist suspected demonic possession, and an exorcism had been approved and scheduled. I had been invited to participate in this exorcism, but the invitation was withdrawn because of liability concerns. Later, I was told the exorcism had been cancelled.

As we approached a large house in the suburbs, a woman yelled from the front door, “They know you’re coming!” The woman invited us into her home and proudly showed us her “shrine” -- a beautiful display of holy icons and statues… She was a nice lady, and it was obvious that she was a devout Catholic. But when she began to speak about Jesus, I heard the mocking voice of a demon!

I interrupted with the command, “In the Name of Jesus, evil spirit shut up!” And immediately, the woman became silent. I remember the surprised look on the doctor’s face.

I asked the woman to sit down, and we began to pray. I asked the doctor to pray the Rosary while I prayed for deliverance and inner-healing. [Once delivered, a man once said that he could feel the Power of the Rosary -- during the war for his soul!]

After two 3-hour sessions, the woman was free. And when the doctor asked me about the diabolical locutions, I told her to burn them.

~ * * * ~

Once delivered from evil spirits, there is no going back to the former (sinful) way of life. One is now called to “a life of holiness” -- a life centered on the Holy Eucharist. This is now very important -- because the evil spirits will return!

“When an unclean (evil) spirit goes out of someone, it roams through arid regions searching for rest but, finding none, it says, ‘I shall return to my home from which I came.’ But upon returning, it finds it swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and brings back seven other spirits more wicked than itself who move in and dwell there, and the last condition of that person is worse than the first.” (Luke 11:24-26)

[“When the assault of demons (evil spirits) is repulsed, the devil is not rendered incapable of further attack. But it seems that he cannot return immediately to the assault, but only after the lapse of a definite time.” _ St. Thomas Aquinas, The Summa Theologica]

When evil spirits return and find their (former) home Spirit-filled and Sacramentally fortified, they cannot “move in and dwell there.” All doors are closed; all permission (consent) is revoked.

DELIVERANCE FROM FEAR

THE SCREAM

“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

Jesus, You are my Salvation.
Whom should I fear?

But there is fear in me, O God.
Fear from childhood abuse and traumas
long forgotten,
fear buried alive in my subconscious mind,
fear that cripples me in the present day.

There is fear in me, O Lord.
Fear that binds me and imprisons me,
even though I am now in the Light.

Jesus, please BIND the "spirit of fear"
in my life.

Please heal all areas vulnerable to
the spirit of fear,
and all areas under its control.

I thank You for the gift of faith --
a faith greater than fear.

Eucharistic Jesus,
You are the healer of my soul.

Please heal my mind and memory,
my intellect and will.
Please heal all childhood memories
of abuse and trauma
that cause me such pain, anguish
and anxiety in the present day.

Jesus, I give You my wounded heart,
my troubled mind.
I give You my broken family.

In total abandonment and trust,
I surrender my life and family to You.
Take care of everything.

Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament,
I trust in You.

Blessed Virgin Mary, liberator of 
the oppressed,
Crush the “head of the serpent”
in the lives of all who cannot
or will not forgive (me).

Immaculate Mother,
you are Mediatrix of all Grace.

For the sake of the sorrowful passion
of your Son Jesus,
please work your miracles of grace
in all whom I have injured.
Hold them, form them,
in your Immaculate Heart. Amen.

I now entrust all members of my family,
and myself,
to the Blessed Virgin Mary:
“Envelop us in thy mantle,
Immaculate Mother,
and we will be in total security. Amen.”

“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”
  
"O Blood and Water which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in You."

ORIGINAL PRAYER TO ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL

VISION OF POPE LEO XIII

One day, after celebrating Mass, the aged Pope Leo XIII was in conference with the Cardinals when suddenly he sank to the floor in a deep swoon. Physicians who hastened to his side could find no trace of his pulse and feared that he had expired. However, after a short interval the Holy Father regained consciousness and exclaimed with great emotion: “Oh, what a horrible picture I have been permitted to see!”

He had been shown a vision of evil spirits who had been released from Hell and their efforts to destroy the Church. But in the midst of the horror the Archangel St. Michael appeared and cast Satan and his legions into the abyss of hell. Soon afterwards Pope Leo XIII composed the following prayer to Saint Michael.


PRAYER TO ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL
(The Original Version)

“O Glorious Prince of the heavenly host, St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in the battle and in the terrible warfare that we are waging against the principalities and powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, against the evil spirits. Come to the aid of man, whom Almighty God created immortal, made in His own image and likeness, and redeemed at a great price from the tyranny of Satan.

Fight this day the battle of the Lord, together with the holy angels, as already thou hast fought the leader of the proud angels, Lucifer, and his apostate host, who were powerless to resist thee, nor was there place for them any longer in Heaven. That cruel, ancient serpent, who is called the devil or Satan who seduces the whole world, was cast into the abyss with his angels. Behold, this primeval enemy and slayer of men has taken courage. Transformed into an angel of light, he wanders about with all the multitude of wicked spirits, invading the earth in order to blot out the name of God and of His Christ, to seize upon, slay and cast into eternal perdition souls destined for the crown of eternal glory. This wicked dragon pours out, as a most impure flood, the venom of his malice on men of depraved mind and corrupt heart, the spirit of lying, of impiety, of blasphemy, and the pestilent breath of impurity, and of every vice and iniquity.

These most crafty enemies have filled and inebriated with gall and bitterness the Church, the spouse of the immaculate Lamb, and have laid impious hands on her most sacred possessions. In the Holy Place itself, where the See of Holy Peter and the Chair of Truth has been set up as the light of the world, they have raised the throne of their abominable impiety, with the iniquitous design that when the Pastor has been struck, the sheep may be.

Arise then, O invincible Prince, bring help against the attacks of the lost spirits to the people of God, and give them the victory. They venerate thee as their protector and patron; in thee holy Church glories as her defense against the malicious power of hell; to thee has God entrusted the souls of men to be established in heavenly beatitude. Oh, pray to the God of peace that He may put Satan under our feet, so far conquered that he may no longer be able to hold men in captivity and harm the Church. Offer our prayers in the sight of the Most High, so that they may quickly find mercy in the sight of the Lord; and vanquishing the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, do thou again make him captive in the abyss, that he may no longer seduce the nations. Amen.

V. Behold the Cross of the Lord; be scattered ye hostile powers.
R. The Lion of the tribe of Judah has conquered the root of David.
V. Let Thy mercies be upon us, O Lord.
R. As we have hoped in Thee.
V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto Thee.

Let us pray.

O God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we call upon Thy holy Name, and as supplicants, we implore Thy clemency, that by the intercession of Mary, ever Virgin Immaculate and our Mother, and of the glorious St. Michael the Archangel, Thou wouldst deign to help us against Satan and all the other unclean spirits who wander about the world for the injury of the human race and the ruin of souls. Amen.”

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.”

FOLLOW-UP

You know what it is that causes you to suspect a curse on your life and/or family… Do the following spiritual warfare daily, until you feel released:

“In the Name of Jesus, I take authority over every curse, hex and spell directed against me and my family, and I command that they go back where they came from and be replaced with a blessing.”

“Lord Jesus, I choose to forgive everyone responsible for sending a curse to me and my family -- and I ask You to bless them. Amen.”

This will reverse the curse,
and release the blessing of God.

__________

 
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.”

“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.”

Eternal Father,
I offer You the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Son Jesus, in atonement for my sins and the sins of my family. May the Blood and Water from the pierced Heart of Jesus cleanse my family line of every stain of sin and remove every evil influence. 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!

POWER OF THE BLESSING

London, England (Spring 2011) _ A “40 Days for Life” vigil site came under attack by pro-choice, anti-Christian hecklers:

“You are just wasting your time.
There is no God!”
 
“You hypocrites, what about
the millions of starving children around the world?”
 
“Why aren’t you praying for
the 20,000 back-street abortions
that take place in Pakistan?”
 
“I know all about your fabricated propaganda.
I don’t need to read any more about it!”
 
“I don’t NEED your prayers, thank you.
I don’t BELIEVE in your evil God!”

"Hail Satan! Abort Everyone!"

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.”

If you do this, you will notice a change. The blessing will drive the evil spirits away, and the person/people will become quiet. (It may take a few moments for the person/people to calm down, but you will have defused the situation.) Evil spirits cause people to behave badly... But when we bless these people -- when we bless those who curse us -- deliverance occurs. 

One day while helping a friend tear down a poorly constructed addition to a house, we heard the mother and daughter inside screaming at one another. I said a simple prayer: “Lord Jesus, please bless everyone in this house.” And within moments, it was quiet. The fighting stopped.

Therefore… Respond with a blessing!
And see what God does.

FOR YOUR PROTECTION 

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! 

When I remember to practice this, the people I meet are kind, helpful, friendly… But when I fail to practice this, something unpleasant usually happens. Evil spirits cause people to behave badly. 

~ * * * ~ 

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! 

Remember: Evil spirits cause confusion,
misunderstandings, arguments… 
But you can protect yourself.
