Introduction
Prayer for Deliverance from the Tyranny of Evil
Prayer Booklet

 
The Prayer Against Satan and the Rebellious Angels, published by order of Pope Leo XIII, is a prayer to curb the power of the devil and prevent him from doing harm. Its use was recommended whenever demonic activity was suspected. It was intended to be used by a priest. Furthermore, it could also be used as a solemn exorcism to expel demons, but only when said in the original Latin and only by a priest with a Bishop’s permission.

Although the English translation of the prayer may still be used by any priest as a prayer of deliverance, it may be used privately by anyone; but the prayer can be dangerous—and may even lead to a person’s possession by demons—simply because, when reciting it, lay individuals are in effect attempting to command demons through their own personal power. So if you were to find a copy of the original prayer and were to recite it, you could get in way over your head by messing with hell fire.

Prayer Against Satan and the Rebellious Angels
 

 
This prayer for Deliverance from the Tyranny of Evil is my own adapted and condensed version of the original prayer; it can be said safely by anyone in need of protection and deliverance from demonic oppression.

 

     

If you know that demons are real and not just a figment of our imagination, then prayers of protection from demonic influence must be a constant part of your daily prayer.
 
You do not have to fear demons if you repent your sins, pray constantly for deliverance from evil, and, in accordance with the traditions of the Christian faith, live a life of chastity, modesty, humility, and detachment from worldly pleasures.

Prayer for Deliverance from the Tyranny of Evil

 
IN the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

SAINT Michael the Archangel, defend me in battle; be my protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, I humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.

IOW I let God arise in my heart; may diabolical spirits collapse like wax melting before the fire, and may they be scattered and flee like smoke that is blown away in the wind, for demons tremble when the Holy and majestic name of Jesus is invoked.

I Lord Jesus, hear my prayer.
And let my cry come unto You.

IORD holy Father, almighty eternal God, I beseech You to deliver me by Your glorious majesty from the tyranny of the infernal powers; from their snares, lies, and furious wickedness; and from the foul grip of their evil compulsions to commit sin. Strengthen me to renounce their oppressive insolence and deign to grant me the mighty protection of the heavenly powers who love and reverently serve our Lord Jesus Christ, Your true and only Son, and may Your holy blessing be upon me. Amen.

From the deadly snares of the devil,
deliver me, O Lord.
space
That You may drive away from me the legions of infernal oppression,
I beseech You to hear me.
space
That diabolical lies and fraud will be unmasked before Your divine truth,
grant this, O Lord.
space
That I may serve You in purity, peace, and freedom from the tyranny of evil,
I hope in this, O Lord.
