This category gathers related prayers and meditations from across the site, organized by theme, saint, virtue, season, or liturgical topic.
This page gathers prayers of protection and deliverance — prayers meant to be prayed with confidence in Christ’s authority over evil, whatever form that evil takes in your life. You’ll find here the classic Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel, prayers drawn from the tradition of the Church’s exorcists, including Fr. Gabriele Amorth, and prayers of spiritual binding and protection over yourself, your home, and your loved ones.
Alongside these prayers, the Church has always paired protection with growth — many priests will tell you that one of the surest ways to weaken darkness in your life is simply to grow in virtue and holiness: frequent confession, the Eucharist, the Rosary, and time in adoration. You’ll find prayers here meant to accompany that ordinary, steady life of faith, not just prayers for moments of crisis.
Several of these prayers pair naturally with sacramentals — a blessed St. Benedict medal, a Miraculous Medal, or holy water kept at the doorways and windows of your home. None of this requires special training or permission; these are prayers and practices available to every member of the faithful.
