Prayer of Deliverance from Spiritual Oppression and Demonic Harassment
📜 Historical & Biblical Origin: Formulated from the ancient Catholic rites of deliverance approved for the laity (Auxilium Christianorum), invoking the supreme Authority of the Holy Name and Precious Blood of Jesus Christ (Philippians 2:9-10).
🕯️ Instructions & Posture: Stand firmly with back straight, holding a crucifix or the Medal of Saint Benedict in the right hand. Recite with calm, absolute faith, making the Sign of the Cross at every † symbol.
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
In the Name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, through the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of God, of Saint Michael the Archangel, of the holy Apostles Peter and Paul, and of all the Saints:
I claim the cleansing, protective, and redeeming Blood of Jesus Christ over myself, my family, my mind, my body, my home, and my property.
Any spirit of fear, panic, anxiety, lust, depression, suicide, addiction, division, or malice that seeks to oppress me: I bind you in the Name of Jesus Christ! †
I strip you of all authority, power, and influence over my life.
I command you, by the power of the living God, to depart immediately and go directly to the feet of Jesus Christ, never to return.
The Precious Blood of Jesus stands between me and every power of darkness!
The Cross of Christ is my shield and my victory! †
Father in heaven, fill every room of my heart and home with Thy Holy Spirit. Surround us with Thy holy warrior angels, and let Thy peace which passes all understanding guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.
