Deuteronomy,
Chapter
20, Verse 1
When
you go out to war against your enemies and you see horses and chariots and an
army greater than your own, you shall not be afraid of them, for the LORD, your God, who brought you up from the
land of Egypt, will be with you.
God imagines the world without war;
this is why He sent His son to bring peace to the world. Yet, we are still at
war for our enemy is not just evil men but the devil and his cohort.
Therefore, when our enemy brings
forth horse and chariot and all manner of evils; do not be afraid for the
victory has already been won! Trust in Jesus who will send St. Michael the
Archangel to defend us and cover us with his strong shield and lead us safely through
the midst of our enemy.
Our prayer then is having fought
the good fight and having a lifetime of devotion to the Blood of Jesus that when
the last hour of our earthly life draws near and we await the awful moment when
our soul must leave our bodies it will be St. Michael that will defend us in
our most vulnerable moments protecting us from the satanic hosts when they make
their final assault upon our souls.
Prayer For Help Against Spiritual Enemies[1]
Glorious Saint Michael, Prince of the heavenly hosts,
who stands always ready to give assistance to the people of God; who fought
with the dragon, the old serpent, and cast him out of heaven, and now valiantly
defends the Church of God that the gates of hell may never prevail against her,
I earnestly entreat you to assist me also, in the painful and dangerous
conflict which I sustain against the same formidable foe.
Be with me, O mighty Prince! that I may courageously
fight and vanquish that proud spirit, whom you, by the Divine Power, gloriously
overthrew, and whom our powerful King, Jesus Christ, has, in our nature,
completely overcome; so having triumphed over the enemy of my salvation, I may
with you and the holy angels, praise the clemency of God who, having refused
mercy to the rebellious angels after their fall, has granted repentance and
forgiveness to fallen man. Amen.
This is the true story of a Marine wounded in Korea in 1950.
Michael, Michael of the morning,
Fresh chord of Heaven adorning,
Keep me safe today,
And in time of temptation
Drive the devil away.
Amen.
Fresh chord of Heaven adorning,
Keep me safe today,
And in time of temptation
Drive the devil away.
Amen.
