St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray.

Closing prayer from the Chaplet of Mercy Prayer
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless, and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us, and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments, we might not despair, nor become despondent, but with great confidence, submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy Itself. Amen.
 

Spiritual Warfare Prayer

by Father Robert DeGrandis, S.S.J.

Heavenly Father, I love You, I praise You, and I worship You. I thank You for sending Your Son Jesus Who won victory over sin and death for my salvation. I thank You for sending Your Holy Spirit Who empowers me, guides me, and leads me into fulness of life. I thank you for Mary, my Heavenly Mother, who intercedes with the holy angels and saints for me.

Lord Jesus Christ, I place myself at the foot of Your cross and ask You to cover me with Your Precious Blood which pours forth from Your Most Sacred Heart and Your Most Holy Wounds. Cleanse me, my Jesus, in the living water that flows from Your Heart. I ask You to surround me, Lord Jesus, with Your Holy Light.

Heavenly Father, let the healing waters of my baptism now flow back through the maternal and paternal generations to purify my family line of satan and sin. I come before You, Father, and ask forgiveness for myself, my relatives, and my ancestors, for any calling upon powers that set themselves up in opposition to You or that do not offer true honor to Jesus Christ. In Jesus' Holy Name, I now reclaim any territory that was handed over to satan and place it under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

By the power of Your Holy Spirit, reveal to me, Father, any people I need to forgive and any areas of unconfessed sin. Reveal aspects of my life that are not pleasing to You, Father, ways that have given or could give satan a foothold in my life. Father, I give to You any unforgiveness; I give to You my sins; and, I give to You all ways that satan has a hold of my life. Thank You, for Your forgiveness and Your love.

Lord Jesus, in Your Holy Name, I bind all evil spirits of the air, water, ground, underground, and netherworld. I further bind, in Jesus' Name, any and all emissaries of the satanic headquarters and claim the Precious Blood of Jesus on the air, atmosphere, water, ground and their fruits around us, the underground and the netherworld below.

Heavenly Father, allow Your Son Jesus to come now with the Holy Spirit, the Blessed Virgin Mary, the holy angels and the saints to protect me from all harm and to keep all evil spirits from taking revenge on me in any way.

(Repeat the following sentence three times: once in honor of the Father, once in honor of the Son, and once in honor of the Holy Spirit.)

In the Holy Name of Jesus, I seal myself, my relatives, this room (place, home, church, car, plane, etc...), and all sources of supply in the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ.

(To break and dissolve all satanic seals, repeat the following paragraph three times in honor of the Holy Trinity because satanic seals are places three times to blaspheme the Holy Trinity.)

In the Holy Name of Jesus, I break and dissolve any and all curses, hexes, spells, snares, traps, lies, obstacles, deceptions, diversions, spiritual influences, evil wishes, evil desires, hereditary seals, known and unknown, and every dysfunction and disease from any source including my mistakes and sins. In Jesus' Name, I sever the transmission of any and all satanic vows, pacts, spiritual bonds, soul ties, and satanic works. In Jesus' Name, I break and dissolve any and all links and effects of links with: astrologers; bohmos; channelers; charters; clairvoyants; crystal healers; crystals; fortune tellers; mediums; the New Age Movement; occult seers; palm, tea leaf, or tarot card readers; psychics; santeros; satanic cults; spirit guides; witches; witchdoctors; and, Voodoo. In Jesus' Name, I dissolve all effects of participation in seances and divination, ouija boards, horoscopes, occult games of all sorts, and any form of worship that does not offer true honor to Jesus Christ.

Holy Spirit, please reveal to me through word of knowledge any evil spirits that have attached themselves to me in any way. (Pause and wait for words to come to you, such as: anger, arrogance, bitterness, brutality, confusion, cruelty, deception, envy, fear, hatred, insecurity, jealousy, pride, resentment, or terror. Pray the following for each of the spirits revealed.)

In the Name of Jesus, I rebuke you spirit of ________. I command to go directly to Jesus, without manifestation and without harm to me or anyone, so that He can dispose of you according to His Holy Will.

I thank You, Heavenly Father for Your Love. I thank You, Holy Spirit for empowering me to be aggressive against satan and evil spirits. I thank You, Jesus, for setting me free. I thank You, Mary, for interceding for me with the holy angels and the saints.

Lord Jesus, fill me with charity, compassion, faith, gentleness, hope, humility, joy, kindness, light, love, mercy, modesty, patience, peace, purity, security, tranquility, trust, truth, understanding, and wisdom. Help me to walk in Your Light and Truth, illuminated by the Holy Spirit so that together we may praise, honor, and glorify Our Father in time and in eternity. For You, Lord Jesus, are, "...the way, the truth, and the life" (John 14:6 NAB), and You "...have come that we might have life and have it more abundantly" (John 10:10 JB).

"God indeed is my savior; I am confident and unafraid. My strength and courage is the Lord, and he has been my savior" (Isaiah 12:2 JB). Amen. Alleluia. Amen.

My daughter (Chelsea) has suffered from digestion for the last 5 years; it now controls her life. Even thou we buy good food for her to eat, she always seems to find wheat/gluten food to eat which shuts her digestion down. She has been hospitalized 6 times and yet as much as it is hurting her and the entire food she continues to eat and find food that makes her sick. We can't even allow her to do anything with friends unless we go and watch her every move, the doctors say if she continues, it could cause her intestines to rupture which could cause other severe health issues as well as death. We need a miracle in her and her digestion. Please pray that this infirmity to be broken off her digestion and this control that satan has on her mind be broken!! Thank you so much Diane

We have been married going on 20 years this December 9th and the Lord has Blessed us with 6 beautiful children, ages ranging from 2-17 years old. We posted earlier about our situation we have given it to the Lord and it has brought peace upon me when I decided that there is nothing that I can do about what we are facing. We are homeless at this time and my family is separated. I'm trying to bring my family back together at this time, but we are in need of HELP. We need rental assistance in getting into our home, we are in need of $1300.00 to move into our home. We have several homes that will lease to us but we don't have the move in funds for the home that will provide us from being homeless. We can't get hotel vouchers for our family to stay. We are in need of a Financial Blessing & Healing. I have reached out to numerous organizations for assistance and help, but there seems to be no help out there. I don't know what were going to do. I would like to ask those who read my posting to continue to Pray for me and my family and I believe in the Power of Prayer that God WILL make a breakthrough for us. There is no drug or alcohol issues in my home, we are a family that really tried to make it, but situation happen and here we are. Again I truly thank those that have Prayed for us and we will be Praying for those out here as well...God Bless You...
UPDATE: Thank you so much for your words and kindness. My wife and 4 of the children are in a homeless shelter at this point time and myself and my oldest son are stayin where we can at the moment. I'm trying to reach out for help in getting us a place to live and trying to find employment as well...We have a car but we have to return it back to the lender due to non-payment and its up for repo right now. so all I can ask is that you please keep my family and I in your Prayers and for healing that we will someday come back together and the Good Lord provide us a home to live...Thanks again for all your Prayers...God Bless You! Warmest Regards

I have found a hard lump in my leg. Please pray for my healing. Pop

I ask you to join me and others who are praying for me. I have been diagnosed with bone cancer; the blessing is that my organs are clean, no cancer seen, This noon I am having a needle biopsy to determine what type and how to treat it. I had breast cancer 20 years ago and had a masectomy which has provide me with a healthy body this years. I had no chemo or treatment then. It has been a difficult last 2-3 years as my husband died from cancer in Jan 06 and my 47 year old daughter last September also from cancer that she fought so valiently for 5 years.
But the Lord is faithful as my husband and I began our marriage with the promise of Matt 6:33 when we sought to seek Him first and all the blessings were multiplied. I now pray that if the Lord wills, I can continue to serve Him with health teaching Sunday school ( I have taught 45 years), doing missions, working with my 4-H club of youth ( over 30 years. I pray for mercy, patience, and the wonderful peace as in Philippians 4 6-9 The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. Elve Koch

For the 2nd time in 2 years, My ex has taken the daughter to the authorities and said I abused her. This simply is not true. When I was married to the ex our first child was killed in an auto accident, and that's why I was so careful with Ashley. I ask for peace, for myself and my new wife, Michelle and the dismissal of these horrid allegations. In Christ's name, Vincent

Thank you for keeping all of our special intentions in prayer as you know we will always do same for all of you. Thank you for continued prayers for my husband Richards heart/stroke health issues.

I am currently preparing to go to the dr. (8:25 today June 17) to hopefully find out if my baby has trisomy 13 or Meckel Gruber syndrome. We found out Friday, June 13 there were severe abnormalities that made our child "not compatible with life". We had an amniocentesis but with the little amnio fluid that I have, it is not know whether there was enough to do the FISH test. Please pray for our strength and sanity as we endure this process. This is just not what you expect with your first child (let alone any) Jodi

Hello I found your website and was hoping you could pray for me. I am young Christian girl, who has made a lot wrong decisions and absolutely regret them. First I have asked for the forgiveness of God to allow the healing process. I was recently diagnosed with an std and I know its a result of my past mistakes but I know that my life needs to change on the inside for my outside to be well. I just know that I don't want to make the same mistakes ever again. I was just hoping you could pray so that I may be restored to health and may change my lifestyle so that I don't end up dying from bad choices in life. I thank you for your website and I have faith that God can heal and that I can make a difference in peoples lives.

Hello I have a prayer request. Thank you for your prayers. My employer is having serious financial problems. Please pray this company does not close and lay off the workers. The workers are not wealthy and need the job to supply their families basic needs. Please pray that this company prospers and pulls out of the economic difficulties and that no one loses their jobs or health benefits. Please pray that I will always be employed in a well paying stable job with health benefits and good work environment that pays all the bills and rent. Please pray that God will heal me of all emotional and health problems and help guide me so I can become financially self sufficient in a fulfilling job and career. Thank you. Hope.

This gentleman and I have been dating for about three years. But, we have many obstacles that prevent us from becoming engaged. The evil that causes these obstacles is being channeled mainly through my family, his family, the friends of his family, and his business associates (who are also all linked in various ways to his family). Both of our families have been involved in the occult (astrology, paganism, and witchcraft). Some women in his family dress very un-modestly. Both of our families use vulgar language and tell vulgar jokes. There has also been adultery, money fixation, and alcoholism in our families. The older members of his family take it upon themselves to decide when younger members need to find a spouse rather than praying to God for an answer. In his family, the focal points of weddings and baptisms are money and self rather
than God. His business associates and family friends are just as sinful. Would you please pray for the both of us? Thank you and God bless.

Please pray for me. I am in desperate need of help and prayers. I am been having bad luck since March and it seems to never end. It has been three months of continuous challenges. I have been having problems with my eyes, seeing bright flashes of light with bouts of temporary
blindness. The apartment building where I live is infested with bedbugs and mice. I cant stand living here anymore. There are drunks living here and prostitutes, and drugs and other people who have served time in prison. I am elderly and I have applied for an apartment elsewhere and
am on the waiting list. I was told I would have to wait 6 -12 months before I can get an apartment. I can handle that, but I live alone and am very lonely and suffer from major depression and panic disorder. A times it is unbearable. I will also need help moving if I ever survive this tough period. Being alone is hard. The emptiness I feel at times is overwhelming. I am very fearful and I shake alot especially in the middle of the night and when I awaken to a new day even though I am a male. It is an terrible feeling. Sometimes I feel like giving up. I am so happy when my day is over and when I go to bed. I feel that sleep is my only escape from all the problems and worries. Please pray for a miracle healing of my physical health and my emotional health. Thank you. May God bless all of you a hundred fold for your prayers. from W.B.

Hello, I was diagnosed with a heart condition the day after giving birth to my son, which was 8 months ago. He is the most precious and wonderful gift ever. We are very blessed to have him and so thankful that he is healthy and happy. My heart function returned to normal after 3 months of medication and rest, which was a miracle! Praise to God!!! Unfortunately, I had symptoms of my heart condition return which lead to several tests at the hospital. My blood work showed that my potassium is high, which is not good! Today I went for a repeat test as sometimes there can be an incorrect reading with the potassium level – I am desperately praying this is the case. This disorder can be very serious, and life threatening, so please can I ask you to pray for me…! Thanks so much. May God bless you and your work. Love, Shuri

Dear Healing Power of Prayer,
I know this might sound like an odd or unusual prayer request, but I am a 38 year old Christian man, and I feel like I am congested inside of my head, with too much pressure inside of my head, such that I have too many thoughts, about too many subjects, and I'm looking for much greater calmness, tranquility, balance, quietness, and comfort in my thought life. To put it simply, I have unnecessarily excessive and obsessive thoughts. I have to literally "pop my ears" constantly throughout the day, by gently grabbing my nose and blowing air through my nasal passage to relieve the pressure caused by too much thinking and too much pressure within my head. There is also a slight ringing sound I hear in my ears that I'm concerned about, and I sometimes feel a bit queasy. I have seen a few reputable medical doctors about my condition and yet I have not made any successful progress in getting effective treatment for myself, but I'm praying God would heal me and soon.
Can you please pray that God would heal me? I am in discomfort throughout the day.
There are obvious reasons for why I am thinking too much, including:
1) I have had a very challenging life, with a lot of exhausting and traumatic experiences, including a few major car accidents which may have given me head concussions. I know that concussions, and also an extreme amount of emotional and psychological stress and trauma in life, can produce uncomfortable side effects, such as excessive thinking and a feeling of too much pressure inside the head.
2) I have unusually good memory to the point where I can remember lots of small details from many years ago.
3) I am a highly sensitive person, such that insulting words & actions from people linger with me and affect me more than they would many other people.
4) I have been given a very curious mind, such that I am always pondering deep and weighty subjects all of the time.
5) I am right now currently in a transitional time in my life, such that I have a very high amount of pressure and stress on me.
I feel like I need physical healing inside of my head. Please help me. God bless you for your ministry. I want freedom from the discomfort inside my head so that I can be much more useful for myself and others and Christ during my lifetime. With very sincere thanks in Christ,- Bob

Pray that my children can really support themselves now. Pray for blessings, solutions, miracles and financial freedom.

Please hear my prayer request, I am severely overweight and have been following Weight Watchers since January. I had been doing well until I hurt my right foot. Now I am unable to walk or even ride a bike for exercise. To make things worse, the drug to help my heel, now has caused trouble in my stomach. I wake up every day feeling ill, and can hardly eat anything or do anything. My Dr thinks it is just stomach irritation, but I worry it is something worse. I don't know whether I really deserve to be prayed for? I really just want to be feeling well, so I can get back to eating properly and healthy, get back to exercise to help with the weight loss, get back to enjoying life and spending time with my wonderful husband and daughter. Thank you so much, Jodi

We purchased another home 11 months ago to accommodate our children. Our old home still hasn't sold and we have pledged money to drill a well in India to help 10,000 people.

BLESSINGS!
Your ministry started praying for me when I began a special daily shot of inteferon to fight cirroshis scarring & bring my hep c viral level down. I began this about 8-9 weeks ago as you may recall & have some good results. Initially: I lost nearly 20 pounds & developed anemia along w/ other side-effects. But praise God my last blood work showed a 200 fold drop in Hep C viral load in only 1 month; normal tests is for a client doing well to have a 100 fold drop after 3 full months; but my dr. took labs after a month showing a drop from 2 million to 1,100, a level that takes others 3 or more months to reach and many don't reach @ all. My weight is also gradually going up & per my dr. there are no traces of anemia but I must take a weekly shot of Procrit to prevent it from coming back. Lastly my t-cells dropped which naturally happens w/ the inteferon..so I ask for continued prayers that the VIRAL LEVELS (HEP C & HIV) WILL GO TO UNDETECTABLE, ANEMIA NOT RETURN, MORE ENERGY & A RISE IN T-CELLS. Also, the Lord is blessing me financially when I turned 55 in April I had 3 retirement funds made available to me 1 I rolled over in to a SCOTTRADE trading account, starting w/ about 30K. I hope that this will help supplement my disability insurance (although I won't touch any profits until 59 & 1/2 due to taxes) & ask that you pray that I have wisdom. My purpose is not to become rich but have more to give away; even on disability I never give less than 10% and sometimes up to 20+% a month I am on track for a healthier summer and pray that you are too.

Please pray for me. I need to get me back to where I was. My life has changed because of the way I led it. I’ve become a chronic smoker, and I now get easily convinced when it comes to substance abuse. I have lost all sense of responsibilities, and my spending habits of both time and money have gone awry. I feel far away from Jesus. I find it difficult to pray. I need you lord. Do remember my family. they are the most loving ones, and I am very different from what I seem in their sight.
Love you. God bless RL

Hello I have a prayer request. Thank you for your prayers. My employer is having serious financial problems. Please pray this company does not close and lay off the workers. The workers are not wealthy and need the job to supply their families basic needs. Please pray that this company prospers and pulls out of the economic difficulties and that no one loses their jobs or health benefits. Please pray that I will always be employed in a well paying stable job with health benefits and good work environment that pays all the bills and rent. Please pray that God will heal me of all emotional and health problems and help guide me so I can become financially self sufficient in a fulfilling job and career. Thank you. Hope.

My friend Cheryl has a desperate addiction and has lost her faith. Bring healing and salvation through the Holy Spirit and the Blood of our Savior Lord Jesus Christ. Mike

I am a forty seven year old man who lives in the central Calif area and I have been a pornography addict for years and the first thing that I am asked when I divulge this to anyone is " does this involve children" and let me say most emphatically no. Also though I have not been diagnosed with anything because I am afraid to go to a doctor, I have been experiencing alot of aching in places where there are lymph nodes and I am talking about real pain. I pray for the strength to go to the doctor and I pray for the strength to finally break the cycle of pornography addiction I came across this website by googling the healing power of God. I thank you for any prayers sent up for me.

I am currently pregnant with a little boy we will name Jude after St Jude. Our baby has been diagnosed with a prior brain bleed and cortical thinning which means the brain could be degenerating. So far his brain ventricles have stayed the same size and his skull is increasing. That is a bit of encouraging news. We are asking for prayer that his brain continues to create and expand with more tissue vs. fluid. Thank you

Please continue to keep Jolene , little sister to one of our Treasured Memory children- Wyatt.
As most of you know, one of the side effects from chemo is that it cripples your immune system. The key indicator they use is called ANC (absolute neutrophil count). Anytime her ANC gets below 500, she is at great risk for catching illnesses, and because she has no immune system to speak of, these otherwise minor illnesses can turn into life-threatening events.
All that to prep you for Jolene's first ANC count three days after chemo ended. Which is zero (0). Can't get much lower than that. So please pray that she can avoid germs until she is at a safer place with her immune system. Ordinarily, children wear face masks to help protect them once their ANC drops below 500. If you need a laugh, picture me trying to keep a face mask on Jolene. She won't even wear a hair bow for more than a minute! She will continue to get the white-blood cell booster shot daily until her ANC is above 2,000. Please pray for best case scenario - her ANC rebounds quickly and we get to come home for a little while. To keep updated on Jolene, Subscribe to journal update notification off her CaringBridge site

Hi, Please pray that : I be healed from candidiasis, & all that goes with it- food allergies, hormonal imbalances, shaky eyes, indigestion, weakened immune system, premature aging. That I be healed from whatever is causing my Eustachian tubes to close, or stay partly closed much of the time. That I may be able to painlessly ride in airplanes again, without any side effects to my ears. That I may be completely healed from Blepharitis (dry, itchy, old looking eyelids), inside & out. A.k.a. the virus no longer lives in my body (it’s a recurring thing otherwise). That I may be healed of sugar addiction. That my serotonin would stay at the level of a "normal" person. And in this I would be healed of Seasonal Affective Disorder. That my adrenal glands be completely renewed to the state they were before I ever had a tsp. of sugar. That my eyes are as strong & steady as they were when I was 16 yrs old, without me having to purposefully exercise them. That my rotator cuffs & other shoulder injuries are completely healed & retain no memory in the cells of their injuries. That the cells in my body use only youthful, healthy, & powerfully regenerative blueprints to renew themselves with. Thanks & God bless. Carolyn

We have here in Finland a spiritual camp (06.13-06.15.2008). To the camp come people who are alcoholics or drug addicts. I hope, that you praying that Jesus saves, heals and frees them. And that all will go well. Eero

ONE MINUTE EACH NIGHT

In WWII, there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every night at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England, its people and peace. This had an amazing effect as bombing stopped. There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in America. If you would like to participate: each evening at 9:00 PM Eastern Time (8:00 PM Central, 7:00 PM Mountain, 6:00 PM Pacific), stop whatever you are doing and spend one minute praying for the safety of the United States, our troops, our citizens and for peace in the world.

Someone said if people really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have. Thank You. Please pass this on to anyone who will pray with us.

Prayer for the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit
Jesus, Before Ascending into Heaven, You promised to send the Holy Spirit - to finish Your work – in the souls of Your Apostles and Disciples.
Grant the same Holy Spirit to me that He may perfect in my soul – the work Of His grace and His love.

Come Holy Spirit
Grant me the Spirit of Wisdom – that I may not be attached to the perishable things of this world – but aspire only after the things – that are eternal.

Grant me the Spirit of Understanding to enlighten my mind – with the light of Your divine truth – the Spirit of Counsel – that I may ever choose the surest way of pleasing God – and gaining Heaven – the Spirit of Fortitude – that I may bear my cross and that I may overcome with courage, all the obstacles that oppose my sanctification – the Spirit of Knowledge that I may know God and know myself and grow perfect in the image of the Saints.

Grant me the Spirit of Piety – that I may find the service of God sweet and enjoy showing Your goodness to others,

the Spirit of Fear – that I may be filled with a loving reverence towards God and may avoid anything that may displease Him.

Mark me, dear Holy Spirit – with the sign of a true apostle and make me alive with Your Spirit in all things. Amen.

A Prayer for Disciples in Mission Loving God,
You called us each by name and gave your only Son to redeem us. In your faithfulness, you sent the Holy Spirit to complete the mission of Jesus among us. Open our hearts to Jesus. Give us the courage to speak his name to those who are close to us and the generosity to share his love with those who are far away. We pray that every person throughout the world be invited to know and love Jesus as Savior and Redeemer. May they come to know his all-surpassing love. May that love transform every element of our society. We ask this through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

Mary, Mother of the Church, pray for us. St. Paul the Apostle, pray for us.

Prayer to St. Jude

Pray for me, who am so miserable;
Pray for me, that finally I may receive the consolations
and the succor of Heaven in all my necessities, tribulations and sufferings, particularly (here make your request), and that I may bless God with the Elect throughout Eternity. Amen.

(Matthew 28:20).

Father God,
On our knees, we cry out to you knowing where it is that everything
good comes, knowing that you hear and answer our prayers. We thank You
for the privilege of prayer, help us to praise you in each thing we touch throughout our days. As always your will not our own, our actions do nothing, your grace has already been imparted. Please Lord Jesus, lead us to other special believers and non-believers who will agree with us in prayer. God Father stand, over us shelter us; as we face the Enemy with our armor on securely. Be ever present in our presence and help us to feel at peace in every circumstance presented us. Please do empower the Holy Spirit within us to help us to be
especially strong and sensitive to your needs today.In Jesus Christ's glorious name we pray,
AMEN
 

Radiating Christ
by John Henry Cardinal Newman (1801 - 1890)
A daily prayer used by Late Mother Teresa (1910 - 1997) and by the Sisters of the Missionaries of Charity

Dear Jesus,
Help us to spread your fragrance everywhere we go. Flood our souls with your spirit and life. Penetrate and possess our whole being, so utterly, that our lives may only be a radiance of yours. Shine through us, and be so in us, that every soul we come in contact with may feel your presence in our soul. Let them look up and see no longer us but only Jesus! Stay with us, and then we shall begin to shine as you shine; so to shine as to be a light to others; the light, O Jesus will be all from you, none of it will be ours; it will be you, shining on others through us. Let us thus praise you in the way you love best by shining on those around us. Let us preach you without preaching, not by words but by our example by the catching force, the sympathetic influence of what we do, the evident fullness of the love our hearts bear to you. Amen.

Let me preach you without preaching, not by words but by my example by the catching force, the sympathetic influence of what I do, the evident fullness of the love my heart bears to you. Amen.
