Daily prayers for protection against evil
Leo XIII's prayer to Saint Michael
"Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle!
Be our help against the devil's malice and ambushes.
May God exercise his empire over him, we ask in supplication!
And you, prince of heaven's militia, armed with God's strength, drive Satan and the other evil spirits prowling the world to lose souls back to hell.
Amen. "
This prayer calls upon Saint Michael, the heavenly defender who leads God's army of angels. Through him, all the holy angels come to combat the forces of the occult. In the Book of Revelation, it is he who defeats the dragon: "Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven." (Revelation 12:7-8).
Jesus' prayer: the Our Father
"Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
Forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil.
Amen."
The Lord's Prayer is the prayer that Jesus passed on to us. He taught us to pray with these words, which he asks us to make our own. To recite it every day - and whenever we feel the need - is to pray with Jesus, in Jesus' words. We can then be sure that these words are not without effect with God, who refuses nothing to his beloved Son. When we ask him - with and through Jesus - to deliver us from Evil, we can be sure that he does!

The rosary: a safety cord against evil!
The holy Curé d'Ars used to say: "One Hail Mary well said makes all hell tremble" ... so how much hell must tremble with a dozen or even fifty (i.e. a rosary) Hail Marys! St. Carlo Acutis confirms: "After the Holy Eucharist, the Holy Rosary is the most powerful weapon against the devil. "
Reciting the beautiful Rosary prayer every day, or even just a dozen rosaries, puts us under the maternal protection of the Virgin Mary, with whom we fear nothing. (Discover all the spiritual benefits of praying the rosary, as well as concrete advice to help you fight witchcraft in your life).
