Candles, and the Sacramentals.

Pour upon us the most Precious Blood of your Son. May his
immaculate and redeeming blood break all bonds of our bodies or
minds. I ask you this through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin
Mary, of St. Joseph, St. Nicholas, St. Dominic, St. Thomas Aquinas and
all the Saints and Holy Angels of God.
Archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael, intercede and come to our
help. Defend us from the Enemy of our Souls and salvation.
(Make the sign of the Cross)In
the name of Jesus, I command all demons
that could have any influence over me and my family to leave us
forever. By his scourging, his crown of thorns, his cross, by his blood
and resurrection, I command all evil spirits to leave me and my family.
(Make the sign of the cross) By the
true God, by the Holy God, by God who
can do all, in the name of Jesus, my Saviour and Lord, leave me and
my family. Amen.

tranquillity. (Make the sign of the Cross) In the name of the Father,
and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. (The prayer can be repeated until
you have covered the whole property.)

y the lighting of this blessed incense, drive away from us, O
Lord, the power of the enemy and keep us your servants in
peace and tranquillity. (Make the sign of the Cross) In the name of the

Then go around the house and backyard with the smoking incense as you pray:
Let our prayer rise before you like sweet smelling incense, O Lord.

power of the enemy and keep us your servants in peace and
tranquillity. (Make the sign of the Cross) In the name of the Father, and of

away from us O Lord, the power of the enemy and keep us your
servants in peace and tranquillity. In the name of the (Make the
sign of the Cross) Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

O my Jesus, forgive us our sins.
Save us from the fires of hell.
And lead all souls into heaven,
Especially those in need of your mercy. Amen
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,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our defence against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
Page 4 of 5
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now and will be forever. Amen.
(Make the sign of the Cross and say in faith) In the name of the Father, and of
the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Repeat the prayers and blessings when necessary every day as long as it is suspected that
there is still an evil spirit lingering. In the case of severe demonic infestation of the house or
property, the intervention of the Church through her priest is to be sought for.
Never use a talisman or anting-anting, or anything from the occult or New Age, or consult an
albularyo or mantatawas. They may seem to heal or stop the evil presence. But in reality they
make it worst because now the evil spirits enter your house waiting for the right time to do
their evil work.
Put the blessed sacramentals in visible places in the house including the doors.
Trust in God’s love for you and your family. Live in faith, virtue, and holiness.
