Spiritual Warfare All: Lord be our helper and leader in the battle All: Heavenly Father, I come before

You in praise, worship, and adoration. Thank you for sending Your Son Jesus to give me life, to give me forgiveness, to give me a place in Your family. Thank you for sending the Holy Spirit to guide me and empower me in my daily life. Heavenly Father, open my eyes that I may see Your greatness, Your majesty, Your victory on my behalf. I place myself now under the cross of Jesus Christ and cover myself with the light of Christ and say in the name of Jesus that nothing shall interfere with Lord's work being accomplished in my life. I put on God's armor to resist the devil's tactics. I stand my ground with truth buckled around my waist and integrity for a breastplate. I carry the shield of faith to put out the burning arrows of the evil one. I accept salvation from God to be my helmet and receive the word of God from the Spirit to use as a sword. Heavenly Father, please show me any way that Satan has a hold of my life. I let go to all those ways now. Any territory I have handed over to Satan I now reclaim and place under the Lordship of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ I bind all spirits of the air, fire, water, ground and nether world. I bind all forces of evil and claim the Blood of Jesus on the air, the atmosphere, the water, the ground, and the fruits around us, the underground and the nether world. In the name of Jesus Christ I seal this room and all members of my family, relatives, associates and all sources of supply in the Blood of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ I forbid every spirit from any source from harming me in any way. In the name of Jesus Christ I reject the seductive lure of evil in all its forms and refuse to let sin have dominion over me. I reject Satan and all his works and all his empty promises, Heavenly Father, I ask forgiveness for myself, my friends, relatives and ancestors for calling upon powers that set themselves up in opposition to Jesus Christ. I renounce all openness to the occult, and all false worship and all benefits from magical arts. I renounce every power apart from God and every form of worship that does not offer true honor to Jesus Christ. I specifically renounce astrology, fortune telling, crystal ball, superstitious beliefs, ouija boards or any occult games or other things that put God second in my life. In the name of Jesus Christ I break any curses that may be coming against me or my family, and stop the transmission of those curses through my ancestry. In the name of Jesus Christ, I bind the spirit of anger, illness, fear, unforgiveness, insecurity, weakness (add any other negative fruit). I bind you away from me now, in Jesus' name. Lord Jesus, fill me with love to replace anger, fill me with health to replace illness, fill me with confidence to replace fear, fill me with forgiveness to replace unforgiveness, fill me with security to replace insecurity, fill me with strength to replace weakness. Loving Father, let the cleansing, healing waters of my baptism flow back through the generations to purify my family line of contamination. Thank you, Lord for setting me free. PRAYERS FOR SOULS IN BONDAGE & NETHERWORLD In the Name of the Father, & of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen Lord, we pray for souls in bondage & nether world especially (name of persons) and for our protection (Note: Psalms are to be sung- any tune will do)

BARUCH 3:1-10 And now, O Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, the soul in anguish, and the troubled spirit crieth to thee: Hear, O Lord, and have mercy, for thou art a merciful God, and have pity on us: for we have sinned before thee. For thou remainest for ever, and shall we perish everlastingly? O Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, hear now the prayer of the dead of Israel, and of their children, that have sinned before thee, and have not hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, wherefore evils have cleaved fast to us. Remember not the iniquities of our fathers, but think upon thy hand, and upon thy name at this time: For thou art the Lord our God, and we will praise thee, O Lord: Because for this end thou hast put thy fear in our hearts, to the intent that we should call upon thy name, and praise thee in our captivity for we are converted from the iniquity of our fathers, who sinned before thee. And behold we are at this day in our captivity, whereby thou hast scattered us to be a reproach, and a curse, and an offence, according to all the iniquities of our fathers, who departed from thee, O Lord our God. Hear, O Israel, the commandments of life: give ear, that thou mayst learn wisdom. How happeneth it, O Israel, that thou art in thy enemies land ? THE LAMENTATIONS OF JEREMIAH (1: 1-6) (Taken from The Holy Bible Douay Rheims Version) How doth the city sit solitary that was full of people! How is the mistress of the gentiles become as a widow: the princess of provinces made tributary! Weeping she hath wept in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks: there is none to comfort her among all them that were dear to her: all her friends have despised her, and are become her enemies. Juda hath removed her dwelling place because of her affliction, and the greatness of her bondage: she hath dwelt among the nations, and she hath found no rest: all her persecutors have taken her in the midst of straits. The ways of Zion mourn, because there are none that come to the solemn feast: all her gates are broken down: her priests sigh: her virgins are in affliction, and she is oppressed with bitterness. Her adversaries are become her lords, her enemies are enriched: because the Lord hath spoken against her for the multitude of her iniquities: her children are led into captivity: before the face of the oppressor. And from the daughter of Sion all her beauty is departed: her princes are become like rams that find no pastures: and they are gone away without strength before the face of the pursuer. In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee. And I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell, but most of all because I have offended Thee. My God, Who art all good and deserving of all my love, I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen. Almighty Father, we humbly ask and beg you to please free our souls from bondage and welcome us to Your Kingdom in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Your only Begotten Son, our only Redeemer through the intercession of Blessed Virgin Mary, our most beloved Mother, Mediatrix of all Graces. CHAPLET OF DIVINE MERCY (Please kneel)

All: You expired Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for

the whole world. O Fountain of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelope the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us. All: O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the heart of Jesus as a Fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You. (3X) Leader: Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. All: Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen. Leader: Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. All: Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. All: I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son our Lord. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead, and on the third day, He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. Leader: Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul, and Divinity \ of Your dearly beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. \ All: In atonement for our sins and the sins of the whole \ 5X / Leader: For the sake of His sorrowful Passion. \ 10X / All: Have mercy on us and on the whole world. / / Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and the whole world. (3X) Jesus, King of Mercy, we trust in You. Psalm 51 (The Miserere: Repentance for Sin) Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me. Against you, and you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you are proved right when you speak and justified when you judge. Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me. Surely you desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place. Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me and I will be whiter than snow. Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice. Hide your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquity. Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me. Then I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will turn back to you. Save me from bloodguilt, O God, the God who saves me, and my tongue will sing of your righteousness. O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise. You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would

bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. In your good pleasure make Zion prosper; build up the walls of Jerusalem. Then there will be righteous sacrifices, whole burnt offerings to delight you; then bulls will be offered on your altar. Psalm 57 (Trust in God amid Suffering) Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me, for in you my soul takes refuge. I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed. I cry to God Most high, to God, who fulfills [his purpose] for me. He sends from heaven and saves me, rebuking those who hotly pursue me; God sends his love and faithfulness. I am in the midst of lions; I lie among ravenous beasts men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. They spread a net for my feet- I was bowed down in distress. They dug a pit in my path- But they have fallen into it themselves My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music. Awake, my soul! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; Let your glory be over all the earth. Psalm 140 (Prayer for Deliverance from the Snares of the Wicked.) Deliver me, O Lord, from evil men, from those who devise evil in their hearts, and stir up wars every day. They make their tongues sharp as those of serpents; the venom of asps is under their lips. Save me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from violent men who plan to trip up my feet--- the proud who have hidden a trap for me; They have spread cords for a net; by the wayside they have laid snares for me. I say to the Lord, you are my God; hearken, O Lord, to my voice in supplication. O God, my Lord, my strength and my salvation; you are my helmet in the day of battle! Grant not, O Lord, the desires of the wicked; further not their plans. Those who surround me lift up their heads; may he rain burning coals upon them; may he cast them into the depths, never to rise. A man of wicked tongue, shall not abide in the land; evil shall abruptly entrap the violent man. I know that the Lord renders justice to the afflicted, judgment to the poor. Surely the just shall give thanks to your name: the upright shall dwell in your presence. A Prayer for Divine Mercy All: O Greatly Merciful God, Infinite Goodness, today all mankind calls out from the abyss of its misery to Your mercy to Your compassion, O God; and it is with its mighty voice of misery that it cries out. Gracious God, do not reject the prayer of this earths exiles! O Lord, Goodness beyond our understanding, Who are acquainted with our misery through and through, and know that by our power we cannot ascend to You, we implore You; Anticipate us with Your grace and keep on increasing Your mercy in us, that we may faithfully do Your holy will all through our life and at deaths hour. Let the omnipotence of Your mercy shield us from the darts of our salvations enemies, that we may with confidence, as Your children await Your final coming that day known to You alone. And we expect to obtain everything promised us by Jesus in spite of all our wretchedness. For Jesus is our Hope: Through His merciful Heart as through an open gate we pass through to heaven. Amen. In the Name of the Father, & of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
