Against Deception and Misdeeds of Demons During Sessions
Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit we come to you in preparation for this grave battle against the Father of Lies and the enemy of our souls. We are very grateful for Your ongoing protection and the restrictions You have already placed on the demons. We humbly beseech You, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary that You further ensure the proper behavior of the demons and the truthfulness of all communication during this session and by granting the following graces:
For every time the demons speak when not commanded to speak and are not truthful in answering a direct question, we ask that 10 hardened sinners would be given the grace of conversion. If the demons lie when answering questions, we ask that You to grant release to 10 souls in purgatory for each lie. If the demons lie about their names, we ask that You additionally grant the grace of conversion and the final sacraments to 10 hardened sinners who would die this day for each lie. If the demons overreact to certain prayers to fool us, we ask that the grace of chastity be given to 10 teenagers each time. If they fake their departure, we ask that You grant the grace of conversion to a politician who supports abortion each time.
I further ask through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, that for every curse that would be sent against any team members by the demon during the session, the grace of perseverance would be given to a priest and religious tempted to abandon their vocation. If the demons attempt to hurt the energumen or a team member in any way that You would grant the grace of sobriety to 10 of the most hardened addicts within a 3-mile radius. For every diversion, distraction and red herring orchestrated by the demons, that You would grant the grace of repentance and conversion to a Satanist. If the demons try to divide the team in any way, we ask that 10 married couples be given the grace to stop using contraceptives.
Oh God who make all things work together unto good for Your faithful, may every demonic deception and misdeed in this deliverance, redound only to your glory and the liberation of souls as we have asked. Through Christ our Lord.
A Priest’s Prayer Against Trafficking Witches
In the Holy Name of Jesus, I invoke the keys of St. Peter and the full authority of the Church and I remove all trafficking witches and evil spirits from [X]. May God’s defending angels strip these witches and all Satan’s minions of psychic powers, demonic and occult powers. May God strip them of all magic charms, psychic vision, curses, and powers of divination. May all their powers and devices be destroyed and cast into the abyss. I ask the Lord to bring these people before His throne and bless them with the revelation of who Our Lord is and His love and plans of salvation for them. Show them how they are being deceived by Satan. I ask the Lord to establish an impenetrable shield of protection between [X] and all trafficking witches and evil spirits. In Jesus’ name, I render all trafficking witches and Satan’s minions affecting [X] spiritually powerless. I bind all evil spirits involved and render them deaf dumb and blind. In Jesus’ name, I cast them out. In his Holy Name, I cast them all out. Amen.
The Heart of an Exorcist
The Heart of an Exorcist
I do not boast of casting out demons,
boasting comes from the mouths of demons;
I choose to serve the Lord in humility.
I do not feel sorry for my little sufferings,
it is Satan who plays the victim;
I choose gratitude for everything that comes to me.
I do not punish demons or chastise anyone for evil deeds,
it is demons who accuse and cause suffering;
I choose to forgive and to heal.
I do not judge the hearts of others,
demons constantly criticize and tear down;
I choose to strengthen and build up.
I do not speak ill of others or curse them,
detraction and cursing is the work of witches and demons,
I return a blessing.
I do not hate … even Satan and his minions,
hatred has its home in hell;
I choose to love, my home is in heaven.
Baptismal Exorcism
The First Baptismal Exorcism
(From the Orthodox Euchologion) The Lord has come into the world, has dwelled among men to break your tyranny, O Satan, and to liberate them. He triumphed on the Cross of your power when the sun was obscured and the earth trembled, when the tombs were opened and the bodies of the saints were raised up. In His death, he destroyed you, the one who had the power over death. I exorcise you in the name of God, who has shown the tree of life and who established the cherubim, the angels, with the sword of fire to protect it. Back, Satan! I exorcise you for the One who walks on the waves of the sea as well as on land and who commands the fury of the winds. I exorcise you for the One whose gaze dries up the abysses and whose threat causes the mountains to melt. It is still He who through us commands you. Remain in your fear, go out, get out of this creature, and do not come back here, do not meet her anymore, have no more influence on her, neither during the night or during the day, not in the morning or at noon; rather, return to your hell until the appointed day of the great judgment. God is enthroned upon the cherubim. He contemplates the abysses. In His presence the angels tremble: the thrones, the dominions, the principalities, the virtues, the powers, the cherubs with many eyes, and the seraphim with six wings. Before Him, heaven and earth tremble, the sea and all that enclose it. Go out and abandon the soldier who is elected by Christ our God and is marked by his seal. It is in Him that I exorcise you, through the One who advances on the wings of the wind and who makes flames of fire His servants. Get out of this creature; abandon her, you and your power and your angels, so that the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit may be glorified, now and forever and ever.
R. Amen.
The Second Baptismal Exorcism
(From the Orthodox Euchologion) Through the holy, terrible, and glorious God, for the One who is incomprehensible and inconceivable in all His works and in His power, for the One who has destined you to the anguish of eternal begging, O devil, and in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, the true God, we His unworthy servants, command you and all the powers working with you. Through the power of Jesus Christ, who possesses all the power in heaven and on earth and who said to the deaf mute: “Come out of this man and return no more to him,” I exorcise you, impure, foreign, and evil spirit. I recognize the weakness of your power; you do not even have power over swine. Remember the One who ordered you, according to your request, to enter the herd of pigs. Fear God: by His command, the earth is fixed on the waters. He created heaven; He set the mountains on their level and the plains to their measure. He put sand as the limit of the sea and created a firm path in the waters. He touches the mountains and they cover themselves with smoke. He dresses the light like a cloak; He extends the sky like a tent. He covers the peak of His dwelling with the waters. He establishes the earth on its firmament. He calls the water of the seas and spreads them over the face of the earth. Go out of and abandon the one who is preparing for the holy illumination. I exorcise you through the redemptive Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ, His venerable Body and Blood and His terrible return—because He will come to judge all the earth. He will punish you in the fire of hell, you and your power, and He will toss you into the darkness, where the worms crawl incessantly and where the fire never goes out; because power is with Christ, our God, with the Father and with the Holy Spirit, now and forever, world without end.
R. Amen.
Third Baptismal Exorcism
(From the Orthodox Euchologion) Lord of hosts, O God, who heals from every evil and from every sickness look at Your servant and examine him, try him, distance from him each diaboloical action. Punish the impure spirits and hunt them, purify the work of Your hands and through Your irresistible force, put Satan under your feet and give him victory over the devil and unclean spirits. May he be judged worthy of the heavenly and immortal mysteries after having received Your mercy and given You glory, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, now and forever and ever.
R. Amen
Fourth Baptismal Exorcism
(From the Orthodox Euchologion) Lord and Master, You created man in your image and likeness; You gave him power to reach eternal life, and afterward You did not despised him or scorn him when he fell into sin. Rather, You gave him salvation in the world through the incarnation of your Son. You Yourself, after freeing Your creature from the slavery of the enemy, welcome him into Your heavenly kingdom, so that the light of Your gospel can shine on him; You join to his life an angel of light that liberates from all the evil of the enemy, from the encounter with the Evil One, from the noonday devil, and from perverse illusions. Cast out from him every evil and impure spirit that hides in his heart. Chase away from him the spirit of iniquity, the spirit of idolatry, the spirit of lies, boundless greed, and all impurity, all that is inspired by the devil’s instigations. Make of him an intelligent sheep of Your Christ’s holy flock, an honorable member of Your Church, a sanctified vessel, a child of light, and an heir of your kingdom, so that, after having lived according to your commandments, conserving intact your seal, and keeping his vestment immaculate, he may receive the happiness of Your saints in Your kingdom, through the grace, the compassion, and the love for men of your only Son, with whom You are blessed, together with Your holy, good, and life-giving Spirit, now and forever.
R. Amen.

body or psyche of the spiritually afflicted.
The prayer can also be said by anyone who senses that a spirit of retaliation attacks one’s own person.
Lord Jesus Christ, in your love and mercy, pour Thy Precious Blood over (I) your servant N. so that no demon, disembodied spirit, or evil
power may retaliate against me (him/her). O Blessed Mother of God, Most Immaculate Virgin Mary, our mother and queen, surround me (him/her)
with thy mantle, blocking any retaliating spirits from having any authority over me (him/her). St. Joseph, protector of the Holy Family and God’s Holy Church, Terror of Demons, protect us from the attacking enemy. St. Michael, our defender, surround us with thy shield, and with your flaming sword punish severely the wicked spirits, so that no spirit may take revenge on us. My Holy Guardian Angel (Holy Guardian Angel of N.) defend this your ward. St./Sts. NN. intercede on behalf of N. Queen of Heaven, St. Joseph, and St. Michael, send down the legions of angels under your command to fight off any degenerate spirits that would seek to harm us. All you saints of heaven, impede any retaliating spirit from influencing us.

the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, St. Michael, and all the holy angels and the saints of heaven in our behalf (and in behalf of your servant N.), be also granted to all our loved ones, those who pray for us and their loved ones, that for Thy Glory's sake, we may enjoy Thy perfect protection. Amen. [see www.amoe.ph]
Lord Jesus Christ, Sovereign King enthroned in Heaven, in your love and mercy establish a perimeter of protection with Your Most Precious Blood around myself (and N.), our families, loved ones, those we cherish, and our possessions, blocking the empowerment of Satan or any curses or any other demonic enthronement, abominations in Your sight. I beseech You to create around me (and N.) a sanctuary of your mercy where Satan and any other evil spirit or human agency cannot empower or aid in any way, the demons present here, rendering them deaf, dumb and blind, unable to communicate or receive any empowerment from any other evil spirit by isolating them from each other; that You would strip them of all weapons, armor, power, illusions and authority; that You would bind, rebuke and disable them from communicating or interacting with each other in any way. We ask the Blessed Virgin Mary, enthroned as Queen of Heaven and earth, Mother of the Church, the Sorrowful Mother, Virgin Most Powerful and St. Michael the Archangel, to send down the legions of angels under their command to block, bind and withhold any demons, whether it is Satan or any of his minions, from supporting, aiding or communicating with the demons present in and around (N.), destroying any ability of these to fortify their stronghold, lengthen their stay or strengthen their ability to attack or hide. We ask this in Your Most Holy Name, the Name before which every knee shall bow, in heaven, on the earth and under the earth. Amen.

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, He suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
R. Amen.
P. This is our faith. This is the faith of the Church. We are proud to profess it, in Christ Jesus our Lord for it is this faith that will heal and save us.

Exorcism of the spirits of divination and Occult Third Eye
The Afflicted firmly and with faith says:
I renounce all the spirits of divination and the power of demons that came in me to give me this power and I command you to leave me now in the name of Jesus + Christ. (3x)
Silently the Afflicted prays in Mind and Heart while to priest prays for the Afflicted:
All spirits of darkness and divination leave me now in the name of Jesus.
(To be repeated by the Afflicted silently in mind and heart with faith.)
For the Priest:
The priest proceeds to break all ties the Afflicted has with the spirit of divination and occult powers. With his right hand over the head of the Afflicted and the helm of his stole around the neck of the Afflicted he then says:
In the Name of + Jesus, I break any unholy ties, links and bondages between N. and the spirit of divination and all evil sources and spirits. (3x)
The priest meanwhile, instructs the Afflicted to look directly at him. Do not let the Afflicted close his/her eyes. The priest with authority and faith, while his right hand is placed over the Afflicted and the helm of his stole around the neck of the Afflicted, commands the spirits saying:
Spirits of darkness and divination, I command you, in the Name of + Jesus, come out of N., leave and never return. (3x)
The above command can be repeated as necessary if there is a reaction until deliverance is made.
Next, get the Afflicted to agree with you to seal the “third eye” opening to the spirit realm. To seal or close the “third eye,” anoint the Afflicted generously with exorcised oil or oil of the infirmed or oil of catechumens on the forehead and command in the name of Jesus that “the third eye” permanently be closed, never to be opened again:
Occult Third Eye given by the spirit of divination, I command you, in the Name of + Jesus (anointing the forehead) to be closed and never to be opened again. (3x)
The above commands can be repeated as necessary if there is a reaction until deliverance is made.
It is fitting that the Afflicted makes his consecration to God or the Most Immaculate Virgin Mary.
P. With firm trust and love of God, make your Consecration to the Most Immaculate Virgin Mary, Our Mother, so that through her intercession you may be liberated from the power of evil.
While kneeling the Afflicted makes the Act of Consecration before a crucifix, an icon or image of Our Lord or of Our Lady, or before the Blessed Sacrament:
O Most Immaculate and Loving Virgin Mary, Mother of God and my Mother, Who was present at the crucifixion and death of your Son Jesus on the hill of Calvary, Have mercy on me, your son (your daughter), have mercy on this poor suffering body of mine harassed and oppressed by the Evil One. Through the merits of your sorrows, grant me relief and comfort. Close now my psychic abilities, which I have obtained through the power of demons. These psychic abilities I renounce and surrender totally to you. I consecrate myself to you, I dedicate myself to you, I offer myself to you. (3x with fervor) Hear my supplication dearest Mother and Queen. Through the love you have for Your Son Jesus who has entrusted me to your maternal care. Amen.
or
Prayer to Mary, Undoer of Knots.
Virgin Mary, Mother of fair love, Mother who never refuses to come to the aid of a child in need, Mother whose hands never cease to serve your beloved children because they are moved by the divine love and immense mercy that exists in your heart, cast your compassionate eyes upon me and see the snarl of knots that exist in my life. You know very well how desperate I am, my pain and how I am bound by these knots. Close now my psychic abilities, the knot which I have forged with the evil one. These psychic abilities I renounce and surrender totally to you. Undo dearest Mother the knots of the evil one in my life. (3x with devotion) Mary, Mother to whom God entrusted the undoing of the knots in the lives of his children, I entrust into your hands the ribbon of my life. I consecrate myself to you, I dedicate myself to you, I offer myself to you. (3x with devotion.) No one, not even the evil one himself, can take it away from your precious care. In your hands there is no knot that cannot be undone. Powerful Mother, by your grace and intercessory power with Your Son and My Liberator; Jesus, take into your hands today this knot. I beg you to undo it for the glory of God, once for all, You are my hope. O my Lady, you are the only consolation God gives me, the fortification of my feeble strength, the enrichment of my destitution and with Christ the freedom from my chains. Hear my plea. Keep me, guide me, protect me, O safe refuge!
Mary Undoer of Knots, pray for me.
Anointing with Chrism
The priest using, if possible, the Oil of Chrism, anoints the forehead of the Afflicted with these words:
May the Most Immaculate Virgin Mary, receive your consecration, and may it be pleasing to the Most High to grant you deliverance and healing through her intercession. In the name of the Father + and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. (3x)
The Anointing of the Senses can also follow using Chrism Oil.
Prayer to our Lord Jesus Christ for deliverance from evil.
To be prayed by the Afflicted:
O Lord Jesus + Christ, Son of God, for the sake of Your most honorable Mother, Your holy Angels, Your Prophet and Forerunner and Baptizer, and of all the God-inspired Apostles, of the radiant and victorious Martyrs, of the holy and God-bearing Fathers, and by the prayers of all the Saints, deliver me from the besetting presence of the devil. My Lord and Creator, who desires not the death of the sinner, but that he should repent and live, grant also conversion to me, who am wretched and unworthy; snatch me from the jaws of the pernicious serpent, who is ravening to devour me and drag me down to Hell alive. My Lord, my Comfort, who was clothed in corruptible flesh for my miserable sake, deliver me from misery and grant comfort to my soul. Implant in my heart to fulfil Your commandments, and to forsake my evil deeds, and to receive Your joys. Save me, for I hope in You, O Lord. Amen.
Prayer to the Venerable Cross
To be said by the priest while showing the Cross and making the Sign of the Cross with it:
+ Let God arise and let his enemies be scattered; and let those who hate Him Flee before His Presence. As smoke vanishes, so let them vanish; and as wax melts before the fire, so let the demons perish before the presence of those who love God and who sign themselves with the Sign of the Cross and say in gladness: Hail, most precious and life-giving Cross of the Lord, for You drive away the demons by the power of our Lord Jesus Christ who was crucified on You and who went down to Hell and trampled on the power of the devil, and gave us You, His venerable Cross, for driving away all enemies. O most precious and life-giving Cross of the Lord, help me, with our Holy Lady, the Virgin Mother of God and with all the Saints throughout the ages. Amen.
The Afflicted kisses the Cross, saying:
Guard me, O Lord, by the power of Your holy and life-giving Cross, and keep me from all evil.
Into your hands, O Lord Jesus Christ, my God, I surrender my spirit, soul and body; + Bless me, + save me and + grant me eternal life. Amen.
Glory be to the + Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Be my soul’s defender, O God, for I step over many snares. Deliver me from them and save me, O Good One, in Your love for man. Now and always, and forever and ever. Amen.
Final Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary
To be prayed by the Afflicted with devotion.
It is truly right to bless you, O God-bearing One, as the ever-blessed and immaculate Mother of our God. More honorable than the cherubim and by far more glorious than the seraphim; ever a virgin, you gave birth to God the Word, O true Mother of God, we magnify you. All my hope I place in You, O Mary Mother of God; keep me under the wings of Your protection.
In the name of the Father, + and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
(Cabading, p. 82)
Breaking Curses of the Occult
In the Name of + Jesus, I break all curses sent against you and all spells around you. (3X)
And I command all spirits associated with these curses and spells to go immediately and directly to the foot of the cross of the Lord Jesus.
or
In the name of the Lord Jesus + Christ of Nazareth, I rebuke all spells, hexes, curses, voodoo practices, witchcraft, satanic rituals, incantations, evil wishes, fasting prayers, or any occult action not of the Lord, that have been sent your way N., or have passed down the generational bloodline.

Prayer of St. Cyprian of Nicomedia to Break Curses
O Lord Jesus Christ, our God, You who controls everything and You govern all things, You who are the Most Glorious Holy One, I glorify You, O King of kings and the Lord of powers, You who sit in the infinite light, which is inaccessible to mortals, You to whom myriad of the angelic hosts and the archangels contemplate, by your divine love I pray, O Lord, so that where once dominated sin will now abound with Your grace.
Now, O Lord my God, I pray and I beg You, to receive my prayer as an offering pleasing in your sight, so that every human being inhabited by an evil spirit be purified. Grant as well to purify the fields, the gardens, the animals, the mills, the fishermen, the merchants, the scientists, the artisans and the silkworms, the employers and their employees, and also Your servant (handmaid) N. with all his (her) kindred.
That what is purified along with his (her) family if it is bound by magic or malefice, for succubus (incubus) or sorcery, or if seventy-two curses has been thrown at Your servant (handmaid) N., or three-hundred seventy-two magic spells were sent in order to harm your servant (handmaid) N., and his (her) household and possessions.
O Lord, grant that the instant my prayer request comes before Your presence, deign that they be all freed from every bondage and every disease, from every magic ties, from any succubus (incubus) infestation or sorcery, from slander, intemperance, lunacy, impotence and from injustice, from all deceit and obstruction on the part of the devil, and at that very moment, let Your servant (handmaid) with his (her) entire family be released from the power of the evil one.
O Lord with Your almighty power that sustains all things and cares for Your servant (handmaid) N., cast out from him (her) and his (her) household all the activities of the author of malice, whether carved or written on animal skin, metal, the stone, wood, or on paper or any other substance.
Yes, Lord, scatter all the works of demons, whether they are fabricated with gold, silver or any other metal, with the bones and nails of human or animal, birds, both living and dead, whether they come from the earth or from a tomb, whether they have been wrapped with a nail or a needle or a pin, which have been linked with a hair, cotton or silk and linen or hemp or with a sac or with a rope and with some other plant, or have been made with the gurgling of the water, or hallow wood or whatever other manner.
Free O Lord, for the sake of Your most holy name of the + Father and of the + Son and of the + Holy Spirit, and by the power of Your most precious Cross, giver of life, that returns vitality to the oppressed soul of Your servant (handmaid) N. May Your right hand be for him (her) and his (her) whole household an impregnable protection and aid. May it carry with it happiness and joy, for You are blessed, both now and forever and ever. Amen.
My God arise and his enemies be scattered, and let them flee from His face all those who oppose him. They are defeated by the sign of the venerable Cross all opposing powers.
O Lord, through the prayer of all the Saints and the Mother of God, grant us Your peace and have mercy on us, Merciful One. Amen.

Prayer of Liberation from the Spirit of Divination and Closing of the "Occult Third Eye" - Short Form
Renouncement
P. Do you renounce Satan, father of sin and prince of darkness? (3x)
R. I renounce him.
P. And all his works?
R. I renounce them.
P. And all his empty promises.
R. I renounce them.
P. Do you renounce the spirit of divination and whatever power it has given you, so as to live in the freedom of God’s children? (3x)
R. I renounce it.
P. Do you renounce the glamor of evil, and refuse to be mastered by sin?
R. I renounce it.
This, or with some similar words, the Priest invites the Afflicted to make a public Act of Contrition.
P. Now confess your sins before God with true repentance and sorrow.
This prayer can be used as an option if the afflicted is deep into the practice of the occult:
The Afflicted with true sorrow and repentance says:
Heavenly Father, in the name of your only begotten Son, Jesus + Christ, I renounce Satan and all his works, witchcraft, the use of divination, the use of the Occult Third Eye and the Evil Eye, the practicing of sorcery, dealings with mediums and spiritualists, Ouija boards, astrology, horoscopes, numerology, all types of fortune telling, palm reading, tea-leaves reading, levitation, and anything associated with the occult and Satan, whether knowingly or through ignorance, I renounce all of them in the name of the Lord Jesus + Christ who came in the flesh, and by the power of His Cross, His blood and His resurrection, I break their hold over me.
I confess all these sins before you and ask you to cleanse and forgive me. I confess with my lips and my heart that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God, and ask you Lord Jesus to enter my heart and create in me the kind of person you have intended me to be. I ask you to send forth Your Holy Spirit and renew me with His life-giving and sanctifying gifts, just as when you breathed on the apostles the Holy Spirit after your resurrection and sealed and empowered them on the day of Pentecost.
I thank you Almighty Father according to the riches of your glory, for strengthening my inner spirit with the power of your Holy Spirit, so that Christ may dwell in my heart. Through faith, rooted and grounded in love, may I be able to comprehend with all the saints, the breadth, length, height, and depth of Christ’s love which surpasses all knowledge. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
or
I confess to You, my Lord, God and Creator, to the One glorified and worshipped in Holy Trinity, to the + Father, Son and Holy Spirit, all my sins which I have committed all the days of my life, at every hour, in the present and in the past, day and night, in thought, word and deed: by gluttony, drunkenness, secret eating, idle talking, despondency, indolence, contradiction, neglect, aggressiveness, self-love, hoarding, stealing, lying, dishonesty, curiosity, jealousy, envy, anger, resentment, and remembering wrongs, hatred, vindictiveness, playing with occult powers; and by all my senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch; and all other sins, spiritual and bodily, through which I have angered You, My God and Creator, and caused injustice to my neighbors. Sorrowing for this, but determined to repent, I stand guilty before You, my God. Only help me, my Lord and God, I humbly pray to You with tears. Forgive my past sins by Your mercy, and absolve me from all I have confessed in Your Presence, for You are good and the Lover of Mankind.
R. Amen.
O God, + absolve, remit, and pardon my voluntary and involuntary sins, in word and deed, known and unknown, by day and by night, in mind and thought; forgive me, in Your goodness and love for mankind.
While striking the chest thrice, the Afflicted says:
O God, be merciful to me, a sinner (3x)
Repentance
Have mercy on me, Lord, have mercy on me. At a loss for any defense, I a sinner offer this prayer to You, the Master: have mercy on me.
Glory be to the + Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Lord, have mercy on me, for I have put my trust in You. Rise not in anger against me, remember not my transgressions, but in the depth of Your mercy look upon me even now and save me from my enemies both visible and invisible; for You are my God and I am Your servant (handmaid), I am the work of Your hands and I constantly call upon your Name.
Now and always and forever and ever.
O Blessed Mother of God, open the portal of your deep mercy to me who put my trust in you, so that I may not be brought to confusion, but through You may be delivered from adversity; for You are the salvation of the Christian fold.
Lord have mercy! (3x)
Absolution
The priest puts his hand on the head of the Afflicted and says:
P. May Almighty + God have mercy on you, forgive you your sins, and grant you everlasting life.
R. Amen.
Exorcism of the spirits of divination and Occult Third Eye
The Afflicted firmly and with faith says:
I renounce all the spirits of divination and the power of demons that came in me to give me this power and I command you to leave me now in the name of Jesus + Christ. (3x)
Silently the Afflicted prays in Mind and Heart while to priest prays for the Afflicted:
All spirits of darkness and divination leave me now in the name of Jesus.
(To be repeated by the Afflicted silently in mind and heart with faith.)
For the Priest:
The priest proceeds to break all ties the Afflicted has with the spirit of divination and occult powers. With his right hand over the head of the Afflicted and the helm of his stole around the neck of the Afflicted he then says:
In the Name of + Jesus, I break any unholy ties, links and bondages between N. and the spirit of divination and all evil sources and spirits. (3x)
The priest meanwhile, instructs the Afflicted to look directly at him. Do not let the Afflicted close his/her eyes. The priest with authority and faith, while his right hand is placed over the Afflicted and the helm of his stole around the neck of the Afflicted, commands the spirits saying:
Spirits of darkness and divination, I command you, in the Name of + Jesus, come out of N., leave and never return. (3x)
The above command can be repeated as necessary if there is a reaction until deliverance is made.
Next, get the Afflicted to agree with you to seal the “third eye” opening to the spirit realm. To seal or close the “third eye,” anoint the Afflicted generously with exorcised oil or oil of the infirmed or oil of catechumens on the forehead and command in the name of Jesus that “the third eye” permanently be closed, never to be opened again:
Occult Third Eye given by the spirit of divination, I command you, in the Name of + Jesus (anointing the forehead) to be closed and never to be opened again. (3x)
The above commands can be repeated as necessary if there is a reaction until deliverance is made.
Exorcism From Mechlin Pastorale - English
The priest puts on a sign of authority, he says:
V. In the name of the Father, + and of the Son, + and of the Holy Spirit +.
R. Amen
Behold the cross of the Lord, flee adversary; the lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David, has conquered.
V. Lord, hear my prayer
R. And let my cry come to you
V. The Lord be with you
R. And with your spirit
Let us pray.
God of angels, God of archangels, God of prophets, God of martyrs, God of confessors, God of virgins, God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, I invoke Your holy name, and humbly beseech your sublime majesty; that you deign to provide for me help against this most evil spirit, and all that vexes this your image.
Through the same Christ our Lord.
R. Amen.
I exorcise you impure spirit, every attack of the enemy, all anger, every phantom, every legion, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to uproot and flee from this image of God.
He Himself implores you, who ordered you to fall from the highest heaven into the lowest realm.
Hear, therefore, Satan and now be defeated and overthrown in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
You impure Satan, enemy of the faith, enemy of the human race, bringer of death, stealer of life, perverter of justice, root of evil, fomenter of sin, seducer of man, traitor of nations, inciter of envy, origin of greed, cause of discord, excitor of sorrow, teacher of evil, why stand and resist when you know God’s power to destroy you?
Fear Him, who in Isaac was sacrificed, in the lamb was slaughtered, as man was crucified, then came forth as glorious conqueror of hell.
Recede therefore in the name of the Father +, and of the Son +, and of the Holy Spirit +. Give way to the Holy Spirit, through this sign of the Holy Cross + (here impress the cross on the forehead) of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who with the Father and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, God, for ever and ever
R. Amen.
If the evil spirit does not recede, the priest continues.
V. The Lord be with you
R. And with your spirit
Let us Pray
God, creator and defender of the human race, Who formed man to your image: look upon your servant (or handmaid) N. assailed by the wicked and envious serpent, who the ancient adversary, ancient enemy of earth, hovers over with fear, attacks the mind’s thoughts with stupor, confusing panic, and harasses by nervous fear.
Drive out, Lord, the power of the devil and remove his false snare: may your servant be defended by Your name and by the sign of the cross, and kept safe in soul and body.
Here make the sign of the cross on the chest three times, saying:
You watch over the inner + soul. You rule the + flesh. You strengthen the + heart. May temptations of the enemy’s power vanish from the soul.
Give, Lord, by this invocation of Your Holy name, grace that those now frightened, may flee in fear and depart conquered; and to You may this your servant (or handmaid) be ordered in heart and mind. Through Christ our Lord.
R. Amen.
I adjure you ancient serpent, through the judge of the living and the dead, through your creator, through the creator of the world, through Him Who has power to cast you into Gehenna; that you swiftly depart from this servant (or handmaid) of God N. who runs to the lap of the Church.
I adjure you therefore, not by my weakness, but by the strength of the Holy Spirit, that you leave this servant (or handmaid) of God N. who the all-powerful God made to His Own image.
Yield therefore, not to me, but to the minister of Christ; Whose power indeed compels you, Who by being fastened to the cross subjected you.
Tremble before His arm; Who, defeating the groans of hell, led souls to the light. May man’s body, being formed to the image of God, be to you a terror.
Do not resist, do not delay to leave from this man (or woman) since it is pleasing to God to dwell within man.
And if you might despise me while knowing me to be a sinner…
God commands you +. The majesty of Christ commands you +. God the Father commands you +. God the Holy Spirit commands you +. The faith of the Apostles Peter and Paul and all the Saints commands you +. The blood of the martyrs commands you +. The sacrament of the cross commands you +. The power of the Christian mysteries commands you +.
Leave, therefore, transgressor, leave seducer filled with all misery and fallacy, enemy of truth, and persecutor of the innocent.
Give way most cruel one; give way most impious one, give way to Christ in Whom you found none of your works, Who despoiled you, Who destroyed your reign, Who bound you victim, Who shattered your vessels and cast you into darkness where ruin will be papered for you and your ministers.
But what do you so aggressively suppose? And what do you recklessly undertake? You are guilty before almighty God, Whose law you have transgressed. You are guilty before His son Jesus Christ our Lord, with Whom you dare to contend, and presumed to crucify. You are guilty before mankind to whom you gave the fruit of death by your persuasion.
If it still does not cease or recede, the priest continues.
V. The Lord be with you
R. And with your spirit
Let us pray.
Holy Lord, Father all-mighty, Eternal God: Hosanna in the highest, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who has cast the tyrant and apostate into the fires of hell, Who sent into this world Your only-begotten that His roar would fill him with fear.
Speedily listen and hasten that You may deliver man created to Your image and likeness from ruin and the noon-day demon.
Grant, Lord, your terror over the beast which devastates Your vine; give confidence to your servant to fight bravely against the most wicked dragon, that he not lose hope in you and say, just like Pharoah said already, “I do not know God and will not let Israel go.”
Urge by the power of Your right hand to expel it from Your servant (or handmaid) N., that it may no longer presume to hold captive the man (or woman) who you deigned to create to Your image and redeem in Your Son. Who lives and reigns with You.
R. Amen.
Therefore I adjure you most impure dragon in the name of the immaculate lamb, Who walked over snake and beast, who crushed lion and dragon; that you leave + from the man (or woman) and leave from the Church. (stretch forth the sign of the cross over those standing around).
Tremble and flee; the name of the Lord has been invoked, before Whom hell trembles, to Whom the virtues of heaven, the powers, and dominations are subject; Whom the Cherubim and Seraphim praise with ceaseless voices.
The Word made flesh commands you; He born of the Virgin commands you; Jesus of Nazareth commands you, He who expelled you, while you scorned His disciples, to leave immediately from the man who had been outcast, nor presume to touch the heard of swine.
Therefore, adjured in His name, recede now from the man (or woman) who He Himself formed.
How difficult for you to resist leaving. How difficult for you against this harsh sting. When you delay in leaving, so much more does the begging increase; since you do not contend with men, but with Him Who came to judge the living and the dead and the world by fire.
R. Amen.
If the oppressed is still not liberated, the priest continues.
V. The Lord be with you
R. And with your spirit
Let us pray.
All-powerful Lord, Word of God the Father, Christ Jesus, God and Lord of all creation, Who gave to Your holy apostles power to trample over serpents and scorpions, Who among Your other wonders found worthy to teach Your command to cast out demons, Whose power so moved Satan to fall from heaven like lightning.
I humbly beseech Your holy name with fear and trembling that, having pardoned me, Your most unworthy servant, from all my sins, You would deign to give to me confidence and power, that I may faithfully and securely approach this cruel dragon by the strengthening power of Your holy arm. Through You, Jesus Christ our Lord and God, Who came to judge the living and the dead and the world by fire.
R. Amen.
Therefore I adjure you every impure spirit, every phantom, every incursion of Satan, in the Name of Jesus Christ of + Nazareth, Who after being baptized in the Jordan was led into the desert and conquered you in your thrown, that you cease fighting what He formed to His glory from the dust of the earth. And fear not human frailty in its misery but fear in it the image of almighty God.
Yield therefore to God, Who drove you back into servitude by the humility of His servant, Job.
Yield to God, Who drowned in the abyss your malice in pharaoh and his army through His servant Moses.
Yield to God, Who destroyed you through His son Daniel, and cast down the dragon.
Yield to God, Who drove you out through His most faithful servant David, son of King Saul, through psalms and spiritual canticles.
Yield to God, Who damned you in the traitor Judas Iscariot.
He indeed strangles you by divine blows, in Whose sight, while your legions tremble, you cry out saying, “What do you have to do with us, Son of David? Have you come to torture us before the time?”
He threatens you with eternal flames, Who will say to the impious at the end of time, “Go, accursed, into the eternal fire which My Father has prepared for the devil and his angels.”
Indeed, impious one, to you and your angels there will be worms which never die. For you and your angels an inextinguishable flame is prepared because you are the prince of the curse of murder;
you, the author of incest;
you, the head of sacrilege;
you, the master of wicked arts;
you, the teacher of heresy;
you, the inventor of all obscenity;
Leave, therefore, O impious one, leave criminal, leave with all your deceit because God desires man for His own temple.
But why do you delay here so long?
Give honor to God the Father almighty to Whom every knee shall bow. Give way to the Lord Jesus Christ Who poured out His most holy blood for man. Give way to the Holy Spirit Who through His blessed apostle Peter manifestly scattered you in Simon Magnus; Who condemned your deceit in Ananias and Saphira; Who struck you in King Herod for not giving honor to God; Who through His apostle Paul destroyed you in Bariesu Magnus by the fog of blindness; and through the same Paul, by his commanding word, commanded you to leave from Pythonissa.
Therefore, leave now! Leave seducer! To you is a seat of waist; for you is a dwelling of serpents. Be humbled and prostrate for now is not the time to delay.
Behold, the Lord and Ruler approaches quickly and His blazing fire proceeds before Him, the flame that surrounds His enemies. If indeed you poison man, you cannot mock God.
He has cast you out, to Whose eyes nothing is hidden. He has expelled you, to Whose power the whole universe is subject. He has excluded you, Who has prepared for you and your angels eternal Hell, and from Whose mouth will proceed a twice-sharpened sword. He Who comes to judge the living and the dead and the world by fire.
R. Amen.

Cede ergo Deo, qui te, humiliáto famulo suo Job, in servitútem redégit. Cede Deo, qui et malítiam tuam in Pharaóne et in eius exércitu per Moysen servum suum in abyssum demérsit. Cede Deo, qui te per Daniélem púerum suum perdidit, et dracónem prostrávit. Cede Deo, qui te per fidelíssimum servum suum David, de rege Saúle spirituálibus canticis pulsum fugávit. Cede Deo, qui te in Juda Iscárioth proditóre damnávit. Ille enim te divínis verbéribus angit, in cuius conspectu cum tuis legiónibus tremens et clamans dixísti: Quid nobis et tibi fili David? venisti ante tempus torquére nos? Ille te perpetuis flammis urgeat, qui in fine temporum dictúrus est impiis: Ite maledíciti in ignem aeternum, quem praeparávit Pater meus diábolo et angelis eius. Tibi enim impie, et angelis tuis vermes erunt, qui numquam moriuntur. Tibi et angelis tuis praeparátur inextinguíbile incendium, quia tu es princeps maledícti homicídii, tu auctor incaestus, tu sacrilegórum caput, tu artium pessimárum magister, tu haereticórum doctor, tu totius obscoenitátis inventor. Exi ergo ímpie, + exi sceleráte + exi cum omni fallácia tua, quia hóminem templum suum voluit esse Deus. Sed quid diútius moráris híc? Da honórem Deo Patri omnipotenti, + cui omne genu flectitur. Da locum Dómino Jesu Christo, + qui pro hómine sanguinem suum sacratissimum fudit. Da locum Spiritu sancto, + qui per beátum Apostolum suum Petrum te manifesté stravit in Simóne mago: qui falláciam tuam in Ananía et Saphíra condemnávit: qui te in Heróde rege honórem Deo non dante percússit: qui te in Elima mago, per Apóstolum suum Paulum caecitatis caligine perdidit: et per eúmdem de Pythoníssa, verbo imperans, exíre praecepit. Discéde ergo nunc, + discéde sedúctor. + Tibi erémus sedes est, tibi habitátio serpens est. Humiliáre et prostérnere, iam non est differéndi tempus. Ecce enim dominátor Dóminus próximat citó, et ignis ardébit ante ipsum, et praecédet, et inflammábit in circúitu inimícos suos. Si enim hóminem fefélleris, Deum non póteris irridére. Ille te éjicit, cuius óculis nihil occúltum est: ille te expéllit, cuius virtúti univérsa subjécta sunt: ille te exclúdit, qui tibi et ángelis tuis praeparávit aeternam gehennam; de cuius ore exiet gládius bis acútus: qui ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos, et saeculum per ignem.
R. Amen.

Exorcism of the Senses
[This was taken from Fr Cabading's "Catholic Handbook of Prayers for Spiritual Liberation and Exorcisms With Redactor's Notes"
pp. 45-57, with permission.]
Redactor's Notes: This rite of minor exorcism has been adapted from the Roman Ritual (Weller's, 1950) for the Baptism of Adults - Rite of the Catechumenate.
In the extraordinary form of the Roman Rite in the Celebration of the Sacrament of Baptism for Adults, there is an elaborate rite for the admission of catechumens characterized by a series of anointings of the senses, followed by minor exorcisms. The theological importance of these sacred actions is very clear: (1) recognition that prior to baptism, the Evil One has a strong hold on a human being; (2) the use of the senses are the primary avenues by which evil enters into the soul of a person; and (3) baptism does not expel unclean spirits automatically in a person's life. Hence, renouncement of Satan and his works by the catechumen and a confirmation of the Church of this abjuration through a series of exorcisms and anointings loosen the hold of the devil and prepares the individual for the ultimate act of faith in God and His Son Jesus Christ and a definitive consecration to God through the saving waters of Baptism.
This rite of the exorcism of the senses is here adapted for use in the Ministry because the prayers and exorcisms contained therein remain to be valid and the theology behind it clear and sound. The senses remain the ordinary way by which we are assaulted by the evil one through temptation and the more serious extraordinary forms of demonic attack. Therefore, the anointing of the senses with the oil of catechumens, the prayers of exorcism, the re-sealing of the person characterized by an anointing with chrism, show once more the renouncement of the Devil by the spiritually afflicted and the reconsecration of the whole being to God.
The following exorcism prayers can also be used as preparation for the Closing of the Occult Third Eye, Prayer Against the Evil Eye, and for Solemn Exorcism.
Signing with the Cross
It is recommended to bless the afflicted person with a Cross saying:
Behold the ✠ Cross of the Lord
flee powers of darkness.
or
By the sign of the ✠ Cross,
may our God deliver you from the enemy.
If opportune, the Priest blows thrice on the head of the afflicted, and says:
Exi ab eo (ea), spíritus immúnde, et da locum Spiritui Sancto Paráclito.
English
Go out from him (her), you unclean spirit, and make way for the Holy Spirit, the Consoler.
He then breathes on the person’s face or head (if this is more acceptable) in the form of a cross, as he says:
N., receive the Holy Spirit by this aspiration, together with God’s blessing ✠. Peace be with you.
R. And with your spirit.
With his thumb he makes the sign of the Cross both upon the forehead and chest of the
person saying:
N., receive the sign of the Cross upon your brow ✠ and upon your heart ✠ Enter into the service of the heavenly commandments, and may in your conduct, you may deserve henceforth to be known as God's temple. And after you have entered the Church of God, acknowledge with joy that you have escaped the clutches of death.
Abhor idols and reject their images. Abhor infidelity from God. Renounce this evil and faithlessness. Abhor the evil of heresy and your false beliefs.
Worship God alone, the Father Almighty, and Jesus Christ, His Sole-Begotten Son, our Lord, Who shall come to judge the living and the dead and the world by fire.
Let us pray.
You do l implore, O holy Lord, Father Almighty, eternal God! Help this your servant (handmaid N., who wanders in uncertainty and doubt through the night of this world that he (she) may be shown the way of truth and the knowledge of you. Open unto him (her) the eyes of his (her) heart, the better to acknowledge you as the one God, the Father in the Son and the Son in the Father together with the Holy Spirit. And may he (she) deserve to enjoy the fruit of this avowal now and forever. Through Christ our Lord.
R. Amen.
Anointing of the Senses with Holy Oil
Redactor's Notes: The use of the oil of catechumens is preferred for the first anointing prior to a minor or major exorcism. If oil of catechumens is not readily available, blessed oil should be used. After which, chrism can be employed if the anointing follow an act of consecration.
With his thumb, the priest traces the sign of the Cross on the following parts of the body of the
afflicted, saying:
Signing the brow. I sign you on the brow ✠ that you may accept the Cross of the Lord.
Signing each ear. I sign you on the ears ✠ that you may hearken to the divine precepts.
Signing each eye. I sign you on the eyes ✠ that you may see the grandeur of God.
Signing each nostril. I sign you on the nostrils ✠ that you may perceive the sweet fragrance of Christ.
Signing the mouth. I sign you on the mouth ✠ that you may utter the words of life.
Signing of the chest. I sign you on the chest ✠ may believe in God.
Signing each shoulder. I sign you on the shoulders ✠ that you may take upon you the yoke of His service.
The remaining two body parts are optional. They are not part of the official rite but have been included to underline the use of the hands and feet in the service of God.
Signing each palm of the hands. I sign you on the hands ✠ that you may work to glorify His holy name.
Signing each of the feet. I sign you on the feet ✠ that you may walk in His ways.
He then traces the sign of the Cross before the entire body, without touching it, saying:
I sign you in your whole being, in the name of the Father ✠, and of the Son ✠, and of the Holy ✠ Spirit, that you may have life everlasting and may you live forever and ever.
R. Amen.
Taking a bit of the exorcised-blessed salt between his thumb and index finger; the priest puts it in the mouth of the afflicted, saying: N., receive the salt of wisdom; may it be unto you a sign of reconciliation unto life everlasting.
or
Latin
N., accipe sal sapientiae: propitiátio sit tibi in vitam aetérnam.
R. Amen.
Then the following exorcisms are done.
In the name of the Father ✠, and of the Son ✠, and of the Holy ✠ Ghost, may all the power of the devil over you be destroyed by the imposition of our hands, and through the invocation of the glorious and holy Virgin Mary, Mother of God, her illustrious spouse, St. Joseph, and all the holy angels, archangels, patriarchs, prophets, apostles, martyrs, confessors, virgins, and all the saints together.
Amen. (3x)
or
Latin
In nómine ✠ Patris, et Filil, et Spiritus ✠ Sancti, extinguatur in te omnis virtus diaboli per impositionem manuum nostrarum, et per invocatiónem gloriosæ et sanctæ Dei Genitrícis Virginis Maríæ, ejúsque inclyti Sponsi Joseph, et ómnium sanctórum Angelórum, Archangelorum, Martyrum, Confessorum, Virginum, atque omnium simul Sanctorum.
Amen. (3x)
Lines in bold letters can be repeated as the exorcist sees fit especially when reactions occur on the part of the afflicted.
Redactor's Notes: Any or all of the Exorcism Prayers can be used on the afflicted.
EXORCISM I
I cast you out, unclean spirit, in the name of the Father, ✠, and of the Son, ✠, and of the Holy ✠ Spirit. Depart and stay far away from this servant (handmaid) of God, N. For it is the Lord Himself who commands you, accursed and doomed spirit, He who walked on the sea and reached out His hand to Peter as he was sinking. So then, foul fiend, recall the curse that decided your fate once for all. Indeed, pay homage to the living and true God, pay homage to Jesus Christ, His Son, and to the Holy Spirit. Keep far from this servant (handmaid) of God, N. for Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, has freely called him (her) to His holy grace and blessed Way.
The priest then signs the afflicted on the brow, saying:
Never dare, accursed fiend, to desecrate this seal of the holy ✠ cross which we imprint upon his (her) brow, through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
EXORCISM II
I exorcise you, every unclean spirit, in the name of God the Father ✠ Almighty, in the name of Jesus ✠ Christ, His son, our Lord and Judge, and in the power of the Holy ✠ Spirit, that you depart from this creature of God N., which our Lord has deigned to call unto His holy temple, that it may be made the temple of the living God, and that the Holy Spirit may dwell therein. Through the same Christ our Lord, who shall come to judge the living and the dead, and the world by fire.
Amen.
Be gone, devil, for the judgment of God shall draw near.
Let us pray.
God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, O God, who appeared to Moses, your servant, on Mt. Sinai, and led the children of Israel out of Egypt’s land, appointing your good angel over them to guard them day and night; we beg you, Lord, if it pleases you, to send down your holy
angel from heaven to guard this servant (handmaid) of yours in like manner, and to lead him (her) to in grace; through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
EXORCISM III
Now, foul fiend, recall the curse that decided your fate God, pay homage to Jesus Christ, His Son, and to the Holy Spirit. Keep far from this servant (handmaid) of God, for Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, has freely called him (her) to His holy grace and blessed way and have made him (her) His own in the waters of baptism.
The priest makes the sign of the cross over the afflicted, while the person signs himself on the brow with the thumb.
The priest says:
Never dare, accursed fiend, to desecrate this seal of the holy ✠ cross which we imprint on his (her) brow; through Christ our Lord, who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire.
Amen.
EXORCISM IV
Hear, accursed Satan, for I adjure you in the name of the infinite God and His Son, Jesus Christ, our Saviour, to flee in trembling and groaning, for you and your envy are vanquished. May you have nothing in common with this servant (handmaid) of God, whose thoughts are already of heaven, and who is determined to renounce both you and your world and to overcome you and so win a blessed and immortal reward. Pay homage, then, to the Holy Spirit, who now approaches from heaven's high citadel to frustrate your wicked designs, and to prepare his (her) heart, once purified through participation in the cross ofChrist, he (she) becomes a sanctified dwelling for God. And so will this servant (handmaid) of the Most High, delivered from guilt of past crimes, render endless thanks to the everlasting God and laud His holy name forevermore. Amen.
I cast you out, unclean spirit, in the name of the Father, ✠, and of the Son, ✠, and of the Holy ✠ Spirit. Depart and stay far away from this servant (handmaid) of God. For it is the Lord Himself who commands you, accursed and doomed spirit, He who restored sight to the man born blind and raised Lazarus from the tomb where he had lain four days.
EXORCISM V
Surely it is no secret to you, Satan, that punishment is your lot, torments your portion, that the day or Judgment threatens you, that day of never-ending torture, the day that shall be like a flaming furnace, in the midst of which everlasting perdition awaits you and your apostate angels. Therefore, accursed one, deservedly doomed, pay homage to the living and true God, pay homage to Jesus Christ, His Son, and to the Holy Spirit, the Advocate. In His name and power I command you, unclean spirit, whoever you are, be gone and stay far away from this servant (handmaid) of God. For today Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, freely calls him (her) to His holy grace and blessed way and to unite him (her) to His saving passion, where he (she) will become God's dwelling by the grace of the Holy Spirit bestowing forgiveness of sins. We ask this in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire. Amen.
FINAL ANOINTING AFTER MINOR EXORCISM OF THE SENSES
Chrism is used in this final anointing if the person is already liberated but if not then Oil of catechumens or exorcised-blessed oil is used.
I anoint ✠ you with the oil that sanctifies you in Christ Jesus our Lord, that you may have everlasting life. Amen.

Leo XIII Deliverance Prayers For People Places or Things - English
1. The presence of the Devil and other demons appears and exists not only in the tempting or tormenting of persons, but also in the penetration of things and places in a certain manner by their activity, and in various forms of opposition to and persecution of the Church. If the Diocesan Bishop, in particular situations, judges it appropriate to announce gatherings of the faithful for prayer, under the leadership and direction of a Priest, elements for arranging a rite of supplication may be taken from the following.
2. When the assembly of the faithful is gathered, the Priest says:
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
All sign themselves and say: Amen.
3. Then the Priest, extending his hands, greets those present, saying:
God the almighty Father, who desires that everyone be saved, be with you all.
All reply: And with your spirit.
4. Then the Priest briefly addresses those present in order to dispose their hearts and minds for the celebration. Then it is appropriate that a celebration of the Word of God take place, with a brief homily by the Priest who presides, in which, taking his starting point from the text of the readings, he addresses the people about hope in Christ’s victory and about the help of the Angels. The texts of the readings and of the Responsorial Psalms may be selected from approved Lectionaries.
5. The Litany of Saints may be recited, which the Priest may conclude with the prayer that follows:
Holy Creator Spirit, mercifully draw close to the Catholic Church, and by your heavenly power make her strong and secure against the attacks of the enemy; renew with your charity and grace the spirit of your servants, whom you have anointed, that in you they may glorify the Father and his Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
All reply: Amen
6. A Universal Prayer may also be composed, after which the Lord’s Prayer must always be said in the customary way.
7. After this, the Priest, with hands joined, adds:
In the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, with the intercession of the immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of God, of blessed Michael the Archangel, of the blessed Apostles Peter and Paul and all the Saints, and relying on the sacred authority of the ministry I have received from the Church, I come with confidence to drive out the infestations of the Devil's deceit.
8. All recite together:
Let God arise; let his foes be scattered. Let those who hate him flee from his presence. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; like wax that melts before the fire, so the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
V. Behold the Cross of the Lord, take flight, all hostile powers.
R. The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered.
V. Let your mercy be upon us, Lord.
R. As we have placed our hope in you.
V. Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto you.
9. The Priest, with hands joined, says:
Let us pray.
And all, together with the Priest, pray in silence for a moment. Then the Priest, with hands extended, says the prayer:
O God of heaven, God of earth, God of Angels, God of Archangels, God of Patriarchs, God of Prophets, God of Apostles, God of Martyrs, God of Priests, God of Virgins, God of all the Saints: O God, who have power to give life after death, rest after labor, because there is no God besides you, nor can there be any but you, creator of all things, visible and invisible, of whose kingdom there will be no end: we humbly implore the majesty of your glory, that you deign to deliver us by your might from all the power, deceit, and depravity of the infernal spirits, and to preserve us in safety. Through Christ our Lord.
All reply: Amen.
10. Then, the Priest, with hands extended, says this imperative formula in the manner of an Exorcism. The faithful, should themselves refrain from saying it.
I exorcize you, every unclean spirit, every power of darkness, every incursion of the infernal enemy, every diabolical legion, cohort, and faction, in the name and power of our Lord Jesus Christ. Be uprooted and put to flight from the Church of God, from souls created in the image of God and redeemed by the precious blood of the divine Lamb.
Dare no more, O cunning serpent, to deceive the human race, to persecute the Church of God, to shake the chosen of God and sift them like wheat.
The most high God commands you, God, to whom in your great pride you still presume to be held equal, God, who desires everyone to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. God the Father commands you, God the Son commands you, God the Holy Spirit commands you. Christ commands you, he, the eternal Word of God made flesh, who to save our race, lost through your envy, humbled himself and became obedient unto death, who built his Church on solid rock and proclaimed that the gates of hell would never prevail against her, since he himself would remain with her always, even to the consummation of the world.
The sacrament of the Cross + commands you, and the power of all mysteries of the Christian faith. The exalted Virgin Mary Mother of God commands you, she who in her lowliness crushed your proud head from the first moment of her Immaculate Conception. The faith of the holy Apostles Peter and Paul and of all the Apostles commands you. The blood of the Martyrs and the devoted intercession of all the Saints command you.
Therefore, diabolical legion, I command you by the living God, by the true God, by the holy God, by the God who so loved the world that he gave his Only Begotten Son, that everyone who believes in him might not perish but have eternal life: cease deceiving human creatures and offering them the poison of eternal perdition. Cease doing harm to the Church and seeking to ensnare her freedom.
Be gone, Satan, Father of Lies, enemy of human salvation. Give way to Christ, in whom you found no trace of your works. Give way to the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church, which Christ himself won by his blood.
Be humbled beneath the mighty hand of God; tremble and flee through the holy name of Jesus, before whom hell quakes,
to whom the Virtues of the heavens, the Powers and Dominions are subject, whom Cherubim and Seraphim praise with unceasing voices, acclaiming: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord, God of hosts....
11. After this, the following antiphon is sung or recited:
We fly to your protection, O holy Mother of God; despise not our petitions in our necessities, but ever deliver us from all danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin.
This prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel may also be recited, or another prayer better known to the people:
O most glorious prince of the heavenly hosts, Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle against the principalities and powers, against the rulers of darkness in this world, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens. Come to the aid of mankind, which God has made in his own likeness and purchased at great price from the tyranny of the Devil.
The holy Church venerates you as guardian and champion; the Lord has entrusted to you the souls of the redeemed destined for happiness on high. Beseech the God of peace to crush Satan under our feet, that he no longer be able to hold mankind captive and do harm to the Church.
Offer our prayers in the sight of the Most High, that the mercies of the Lord may quickly meet us, and that you may seize the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the Devil and Satan, and cast him bound into that abyss where he can no longer lead the nations astray.
Amen.
12. The Priest sprinkles the place with holy water. Then he blesses those present in the customary way, and the Dismissal takes place.

Exsúrgit Deus et dissipántur inimíci eius et fúgiunt, qui odérunt eum, a fácie eius. Sicut dissipátur fumus, tu díssipas; sicut fluit cera a fácie ignis, sic péreunt peccatóres a fácie Dei.

Per Christum Dóminum nostrum.
R. Amen.
Exorcízo te, omnis immúnde spíritus, omnis tenebrárum potéstas, omnis incúrsio infernális adversárii, omnis légio, congregátio et secta diabólica, in nómine et virtúte Dómini nostri Iesu Christi: eradicáre et effugáre a Dei Ecclésia, ab animábus ad imáginem Dei cónditis ac pretióso divíni Agni sánguine redémptis.
Non ultra áudeas, cállide serpens, decípere humánum genus, Dei Ecclésiam pérsequi ac Dei eléctos excútere et cribráre sicut tríticum.
Imperat tibi Deus altíssimus, cui in magna tua supérbia te similem habéri adhuc præsúmis, qui omnes hómines vult salvos fíeri et ad agnitiónem veritátis venire.
Imperat tibi Deus Pater; ímperat tibi Deus Fílius; ímperat tibi Deus Spíritus Sanctus.
Imperat tibi Christus, ætérnum Dei Verbum caro factum, qui pro salúte géneris nostri tua invídia pérditi, humiliávit semetípsum factus obœdiens usque ad mortem; qui Ecclésiam suam ædificávit, supra firmam petram et portas ínferi advérsus eam numquam esse prævalitúras edíxit, cum ea ipse præmansúrus ómnibus diébus usque ad consummatiónem sǽculi.
Imperat tibi sacraméntum + Crucis. omniúmque christiánæ fídei Mysteriórum virtus. Imperat tibi excélsa Dei Génetrix Virgo María, quæ supérbum caput tuum a primo instánti immaculátæ Conceptiónis in sua humilitáte contrívit. Imperat tibi fides sanctórum Apostolórum Petri et Pauli ceterorúmque Apostolórum. Imperat tibi Mártyrum sanguis ac pia Sanctórum et Sanctárum ómnium intercéssio.
Ergo, légio diabólica, adiúro te per Deum vivum, per Deum verum, per Deum sanctum, per Deum, qui sic diléxit mundum, ut Fílium suum Unigénitum daret, ut omnis, qui credit in eum, non péreat, sed hábeat vitam ætérnam: cessa decípere humánas creatúras eisque ætérnae perditiónis venénum propináre; désine Ecclésiæ nocére et eius libertáti láqueos inícere.
Vade, Sátana, mendácii pater, hostis humánæ salútis. Da locum Christo, in quo nihil invenísti de opéribus tuis; da locum Ecclésiæ uni, sanctæ, cathólicæ et Apostólicæ, quam Christus ipse acquisívit sánguine suo. Humiliáre sub poténti manu Dei, contremísce et éffuge per sanctum nomen Iesu, quem ínferi tremunt, cui Virtútes cælórum et Potestátes et Dominatiónes subiéctæ sunt, quem Chérubim et Séraphim indeféssis vócibus laudant, dicéntes: Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus Dóminus Deus Sábaoth. Pleni sunt cæli et terra glória tua. Hosánna in excélsis. Benedíctus qui venit in nómine Dómini. Hosánna in excélsis.
Sub tuum præsídium confúgimus, sancta Dei Génetrix; nostras deprecatiónes ne despícias in necessitátibus, sed a perículis cunctis líbera nos semper Virgo gloriósa et benedícta.
Prínceps gloriosíssime cæléstis milítiæ, sancte Míchael Archángele, defénde nos in prœlio advérsus príncipes et potestátes, advérsus mundi rectóres tenebrárum harum, contra spiritália nequítiæ in cæléstibus. Veni in auxílium hóminum, quos Deus ad imáginem similitúdinis suæ fecit et a tyránnide diáboli emit prétio magno.
Te custódem et patrónum sancta venerátur Ecclésia; tibi trádidit Dóminus ánimas redemptórum in supérna felicitáte locándas. Deprecáre Deum pacis, ut cónterat Sátanam sub pédibus nostris, ne ultra váleat captívos tenére hómines et Ecclésiæ nocére.
Offer nostras preces in conspéctu Altíssimi, ut cito antícipent nos misericórdiæ Dómini et apprehéndas dracónem, serpéntem antíquum, qui est diábolus et Sátanas, et ligátum mittas in abýssum, ut non sedúcat ámplius gentes.
R. Amen.

N., I seal you in the most Precious Blood of Jesus against any and all incursions

spirits and against any spirits sent or summoned against anyone who would
attempt to break any and all evil curses, pacts, spells, seals, hexes, vexes,
triggers, trances, vows, demonic blessing, demonic bondages, spiritual
influences, soul ties, endowments, empowerments, dedications, consecrations,

Prayer Against Spirits of Retaliation
This prayer can be said as part of the Protection Prayers at the beginning of the prayer intervention over the
afflicted or as part of the concluding prayers before or after the Cleansing Prayers but before the Final Blessing.
It can also be offered anytime during the exorcism prayers, especially when severe retaliation manifests in the
body or psyche of the spiritually afflicted.
The prayer can also be said by anyone who senses that a spirit of retaliation attacks one’s own person.
Lord Jesus Christ, in your love and mercy, pour Thy Precious Blood over (I) your servant N. so that no demon, disembodied spirit, or evil
power may retaliate against me (him/her). O Blessed Mother of God, Most Immaculate Virgin Mary, our mother and queen, surround me (him/her)
with thy mantle, blocking any retaliating spirits from having any authority over me (him/her). St. Joseph, protector of the Holy Family and God’s Holy Church, Terror of Demons, protect us from the attacking enemy. St. Michael, our defender, surround us with thy shield, and with your flaming sword punish severely the wicked spirits, so that no spirit may take revenge on us.

Queen of Heaven, St. Joseph, and St. Michael, send down the legions of angels under your command to fight off any degenerate spirits that would seek to harm us.

the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, St. Michael, and all the holy angels and the saints of heaven in our behalf (and in behalf of your servant N.), be also granted to all our loved ones, those who pray for us and their loved ones, that for Thy Glory's sake, we may enjoy Thy perfect protection. Amen. [see www.amoe.ph]
Cleansing Prayers
Lord Jesus, thank You for sharing with us Your wonderful ministry of healing and deliverance. Thank You for the healing we have seen and experienced today. But we realize that the sickness and evil we encountered are more than our humanities can bear. So cleanse us of any sadness, negativity, or despair that we may have picked up during the course of this ministry.
If our ministry has tempted us to anger, impatience, or lust, cleanse us of those temptations and replace them with love, joy and peace. If any evil spirits have attached themselves to us or oppress us in any way, I command You, spirits of earth, air, fire, or water, of the netherworld or of nature, and all spirits not of the Holy Spirit to depart now and go straight to Jesus Christ, for Him to deal with as He wills.
Come, Holy Spirit, renew us, fill us anew with Your power, love and joy. Strengthen us where we have felt weak and clothe us with Your light. Fill us with life. And Lord Jesus, please send your holy angels to minister to us and our families and to guard and protect us from all sickness, harm, and accidents and guard us on a safe trip home, and grant us a peaceful night’s rest. We praise You now and forever, + Father, Son, and Holy Spirit!
Amen.

Lord Jesus, I ask you to loose N. from all effects from the evil one – restoring your servant (handmaid) in every way – body, soul, mind, and spirit.

Druid Renunciations
Druidism is not an organized religion but rather a collection of people who have generic beliefs about the supernatural world. As such, these renunciations are based on those generic beliefs.
God the Father, Creator of heaven and earth, I come to Thee in the name of Jesus Christ Thy Son. I come as a sinner seeking forgiveness and cleansing from all sins committed against Thee, and others made in Thy image. I honor my earthly father and mother and all of my ancestors of flesh and blood, and of the spirit by adoption and godparents, but I utterly turn away from and renounce all their sins. I forgive all my ancestors for the effects of their sins on me and my children. I confess and renounce all of my own sins. I renounce and rebuke Satan and every spiritual power of his affecting me and my family.
Today, I invoke Mary, who tramples the head of Satan, the saints, St. Michael, St. Patrick, NN., the cherubim and seraphim, archangels, my guardian angel, patriarchs and prophets, Apostles, confessors, holy virgins, martyrs and all the saints that All these powers be between me and all the forces of the enemy afflicting me or seeking to afflict me in any way. I ask that these powers be Against every cruel and merciless power that may oppose my body and soul, Against incantations of false prophets, Against black laws of pagandom, Against false laws of heretics, Against craft of idolatry, Against spells of witches and smiths and wizards and bards and ovates and druids, Against every knowledge that corrupts man's body and soul; Christ to shield me today Against poison, against burning, Against drowning, against wounding, So that there may come to me an abundance of reward.[1]
In the name of Jesus Christ and through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary I renounce and reject any gods, goddesses, nature spirits, universal forces, or great spirits held as deities. I confess my belief in the Threeness, through confession of the Oneness of the Creator of creation[2]. I confess belief in all the commandments and especially the first commandment that I shall have no other gods besides the Lord. In the name of Jesus and through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, I utterly reject and renounce any and all pagan festivals involved with druidism, nature worship, use of crystals, divination, demonic inspirations, animal lore, the ‘otherworld’, and the word “awen”. In the name of Jesus and through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary I renounce and reject the ‘gifts of Druidism’ of philosophy, being put in touch with nature, healing, affirmation of life as a journey, openness to other realities, developing of potential, and gift of magic insofar as they are demonic gifts and ask the Holy Spirit give me his gifts of knowledge, fortitude, understanding, counsel, fear of the Lord, wisdom, and piety. (Optional Consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary for the Closing the "Occult Third Eye". See Below).
I arise today Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity, Through belief in the Threeness, Through confession of the Oneness of the Creator of creation. I arise today Through the strength of Christ's birth with His baptism, Through the strength of His crucifixion with His burial, Through the strength of His resurrection with His ascension, Through the strength of His descent for the judgment of doom. Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me ,Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise, Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me, Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me.[3]
St. Michael Center Staff
Consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary for Closing the "Occult Third Eye"
This prayer is very effective, depending upon one’s faith and sincerity, in removing the psychic vulnerability of persons to the preternatural world of the unclean spirits whether this vulnerability was attained by occult practices and/or having spirits of the occult come down from ancestors who delved in sorcery and witchcraft.
O Most Immaculate and Loving Virgin Mary, Mother of God and My Mother, who was present in the crucifixion and death of your Son Jesus on the hill of Calvary, have mercy on me, your son (your daughter). Have mercy on this poor, suffering body of mine harassed and suppressed by the Evil one. Through the merits of your sorrows, grant me relief and comfort. Close now my psychic abilities which I have obtained through the power of demons. These psychic abilities I renounce and surrender totally to you. I consecrate myself to you. I offer myself to you. Hear my supplications, dearest Mother and Queen. Through the love you have for your Son Jesus who has entrusted me to your maternal care. Amen.

Umbrellino Prayer for Technology
Lord Jesus Christ, Sovereign King enthroned in Heaven, in your love and mercy establish a perimeter of protection with Your Precious Blood around our communication devices and all technology used during this session, the cameras or webcams, microphones, speakers, displays, any and all software, WiFi connections in the air, both my router and the router of N. and anyone assisting, the optic cables involved in the transmission of data, and the light waves being used to transfer data. Cleanse them with your precious blood and drive from them any satanic influence. Establish around them a sanctuary of your mercy where Satan and any other evil spirit or human agency cannot interfere. I ask Father that you would block, bind, rebuke and render impotent any assault of the evil one from them in any way. Father, so long as these instruments are utilized in this ministry of Divine mercy, we ask you to allow them to enjoy the protection of the Blessed Mother, St. Michael the Archangel and all the Holy Angels. We ask this in Your Most Holy Name, the Name before which every knee shall bow, in heaven, on the earth and under the earth, that Jesus Christ is Lord.

Prayer to Remove Satan's Yoke
How you have fallen from the heavens, O Morning Star, son of the dawn! How you have been cut down to the earth, you who conquered nations! In your heart you said: “I will scale the heavens; Above the stars of God I will set up my throne; I will take my seat on the Mount of Assembly, on the heights of Zaphon. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will be like the Most High!” No! Down to Sheol you are cast to the depths of the pit! (Isaiah 14: 12-15)
The LORD of hosts has sworn: As I have resolved, so shall it be; As I have planned, so shall it stand: To break the Assyrian in my land and trample him on my mountains; Then his yoke shall be removed from them, and his burden from their shoulder; This is the plan proposed for the whole earth, and this the hand outstretched over all the nations. The LORD of hosts has planned; who can thwart him? His hand is stretched out; who can turn it back? (Isaiah 14:24-27)
In the Most Holy Name of Jesus I cast Lucifer, Satan all their minions out. Down to Sheol you are cast, to the depths of the pit. (3x)
The LORD of hosts has sworn and has resolved, so shall it be; As He has planned, so shall it stand; (3x)
In the Most Holy Name of Jesus I break the enemy in God's land and trample him on God's mountains; (3x)
In the Most Holy Name of Jesus I remove Satan's yoke from you and his burden from your shoulder; (3x)
This is the plan proposed for the whole earth, and this the hand outstretched over all the nations. (3x)
The LORD of hosts has planned, who can thwart him? His hand is stretched out; who can turn it back?; (3x)
I place on you the yoke of Jesus, which is easy and His burden which is light. (3x)
He is meek and humble of Heart, and you will find rest for yourselves. (3x)
For His yoke is easy and His burden light. (3x)

Prayers of Deliverance
(I)
This is the standard prayer used by AMOE during deliverance sessions. It is important, especially the minister is a priest, to lay one hand on the head of the victim.

I proclaim that You, Lord, are my Heavenly Father and that Your throne holds all power, all authority and rules over all powers and principalities.
Father, I acknowledge and I am in agreement to all of Your ways and I am in full agreement to the position You have given your only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, over my life. I sit myself at Jesus Christ’s feet under the truth of His teachings and I surrender and yoke myself to the mantle of His rule and power.
I renounce sin, Satan, his works and all of his minions of deceptive trickery, which come against the believer and the unbeliever.
Through ignorance I had walked a sinners walk and had talked the language that sinners speak before I came to accept Jesus Christ into my life. I had indulged myself with sinful behavior because I did not fully understand, or appreciate the love You had for me and I repent.

By the Blood of Jesus Christ, I seek to break off me every negative and spiritually dangerous connection my soul has made to each one of those sexual partners. Let their sins be theirs and my sins be mine and covered under the blood of Jesus Christ.
Father, if any one of these ex-partners has sinful behavior in their life, or are living in disobedience to Your ways, I want to clarify that I am not in agreement to any of their sinful ways, or disobedience. In the name of Jesus Christ, I ask that God’s Warrior Angels take their swords and completely sever each and every type of soul tie and attachment that have been connected to me from each of those sexual partners in that I do not take on any consequence to their sins, or any consequence from my prior involvement with them.]
In the name of + Jesus, and by the power of His blood, I now renounce, break and sever all unholy soul ties formed between NN. and myself, through the sin of _____(name the sin which caused the evil soul tied, such as adultery or fornication.) (3x)
I now command any evil spirits which have taken advantage of this unholy soul tie to leave me now in the name of + Jesus.

I renounce all false communions taken, all mockery of the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary, all unbelief, confusion and depression and all worship of Lucifer as God. I renounce and forsake the lie of Freemasonry that man is not sinful, but merely imperfect and so can redeem himself through good works. I rejoice that the Bible states that I cannot do a single thing to earn my salvation, but that I can only be saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and what He accomplished on the Cross of Calvary.
I renounce all fear of insanity, anguish, death wishes, suicide and death in the name of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ conquered death, and He alone holds the keys of death and hell, and I rejoice that He holds my life in His hands now. He came to give me life abundantly and eternally, and I believe His promises.
I renounce all anger, hatred, murderous thoughts, revenge, retaliation, spiritual apathy, false religion, all unbelief, especially unbelief in the Holy Bible as God's Word, and all compromise of God's Word. I renounce all spiritual searching into false religions and all striving to please God, I rest in the knowledge that I have found my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and that He has found me.
I will burn all objects in my possession, which connect me with all lodges and or cultic organizations, including Masonry, Witchcraft and Mormonism and all regalia, aprons, books of rituals, rings and other jewelery. I renounce the effects of these or other objects of Masonry, such as the compass, the square, the noose or the blindfold, have had on me or my family, in Jesus Name.
All participants should now be invited to sincerely carry out the following: (1) Symbolically remove the blindfold (hoodwink) and give it to the Lord for disposal. (2) In the same way, symbolically remove the veil of mourning. (3) Symbolically cut and remove the noose from around the neck, gather it up with the cable-tow running down the body and give it all to the Lord for His disposal. (4) Renounce the false Freemasonry marriage covenant, removing from the 4th finger of the right hand the ring of this false marriage covenant, giving it to the Lord to dispose of it. (5) Symbolically remove the chains and bondages of Freemasonry from your body. (6) Symbolically remove all Freemasonry regalia and armor, especially the Apron. (7) Repent of and seek forgiveness for having walked on all unholy ground, including Freemasonry lodges and temples, including any Mormon or other occult/Masonic organizations. (8) Symbolically remove the ball and chain from the ankles. (9) Proclaim that "Satan and his demons no longer have any legal rights to mislead and manipulate me because I have repented and proclaim Jesus as my Lord, my Savior and my only source of Truth."
Holy Spirit, I ask that you show me anything else which I need to do or to pray so that I and my family may be totally free from the consequences of the sins of Masonry, Witchcraft, Mormonism and Paganism.
(Pause, while listening to God, and pray as the Holy Spirit leads you.)
Now God, dear Father, I ask humbly for the blood of Jesus Christ, your Son, to cleanse me from all these sins I have confessed and renounced, to cleanse my spirit, my soul, my mind, my emotions and every part of my body which has been affected by these sins. In Jesus' name.
I renounce every evil spirit associated with Masonry, Witchcraft and all other sins. I command in The name of Jesus Christ for Satan and every evil spirit to be bound and to leave me now, touching or harming no-one, and go to the place appointed for you by the Lord Jesus, never to return to me or my family. I call on the name of the Lord Jesus to be delivered of these spirits, in accordance with the many promises of the Bible. I ask to be delivered of every spirit of sickness. Infirmity, curse, affliction, addiction, disease or allergy associated with these sins I have confessed and renounced. I surrender to God's Holy Spirit and to no other spirit all the places in my life where these sins have been. I ask you, Lord, to baptize me in your Holy Spirit now according to the promises in your Word. I take to myself the whole armor of God in accordance with Ephesians Chapter Six and rejoice in its protection as Jesus surrounds me and fills me with His Holy Spirit. I enthrone you, Lord Jesus, in my heart, for you are my Lord and my Savior, the source of eternal life. Thank you, Father God, for your mercy, your forgiveness and your love, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

I renounce every evil spirit associated with Masonry, Witchcraft and all other sins.

Lord Jesus Christ, Sovereign King enthroned in Heaven, in your love and mercy establish a perimeter of protection with Your Most Precious Blood around myself (and N.), our families, loved ones, those we cherish, and our possessions, blocking the empowerment of Satan or any other demonic enthronement, abominations in Your sight. I beseech You to create around me (and N.) a sanctuary of your mercy where Satan and any other evil spirit or human agency cannot empower or aid in any way, the demons present here, rendering them deaf, dumb and blind, unable to communicate or receive any empowerment from any other evil spirit by isolating them from each other; that You would strip them of all weapons, armor, power, illusions and authority; that You would bind, rebuke and disable them from communicating or interacting with each other in any way. We ask the Blessed Virgin Mary, enthroned as Queen of Heaven and earth, Mother of the Church, the Sorrowful Mother, Virgin Most Powerful and St. Michael the Archangel, to send down the legions of angels under their command to block, bind and withhold any demons, whether it is Satan or any of his minions, from supporting, aiding or communicating with the demons present in and around (N.), destroying any ability of these to fortify their stronghold, lengthen their stay or strengthen their ability to attack or hide. We ask this in Your Most Holy Name, the Name before which every knee shall bow, in heaven, on the earth and under the earth. Amen.

Extraordinary Rite of Exorcism (Weller vol. II, pp. 175-223)
Rite of Exorcism
1. The priest delegated by the Ordinary to perform this office should first go to confession or at least elicit an act of contrition, and, if convenient, offer the holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and implore God's help in other fervent prayers. He vests in surplice and purple stole. Having before him the person possessed (who should be bound if there is any danger), he traces the sign of the cross over him, over himself, and the bystanders, and then sprinkles all of them with holy water.

Psalm 53
Save me, O God, By your name, and further my cause by your power. O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth. For proud men have risen against me, and men of violence have sought my life: they have not set God before their eyes. But see - God is my helper; the Lord supports my life. Let the evil recoil upon my foes, and cut them off in thy faithfulness. Gladly will I sacrifice unto you. I will praise your name, O Lord, for it is good. In every need He has delivered me, and my eye has seen the confusion of my foe.
Glory be to the Father…
After the psalm the priest continues:
P: Save your servant.
All: Who trusts in you, my God.
P: Let him (her) find in you, Lord, a fortified tower.
All: In the face of the enemy.
P: Let the enemy have no power over him (her).
All: And the son of iniquity be powerless to harm him (her).
P: Lord, send him (her) aid from your holy place.
All: And watch over him (her) from Sion.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Let us pray.
God, whose nature is ever merciful and forgiving, accept our prayer that this servant of yours, bound by the fetters of sin, may be pardoned by your loving kindness.
Holy Lord, almighty Father, everlasting God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who once and for all consigned that fallen and apostate tyrant to the flames of hell, who sent your only- begotten Son into the world to crush that roaring lion; hasten to our call for help and snatch from ruination and from the clutches of the noonday devil this human being made in your image and likeness. Strike terror, Lord, into the beast now laying waste your vineyard. Fill your servants with courage to fight manfully against that reprobate dragon, lest he despise those who put their trust in you, and say with Pharaoh of old: "I know not God, nor will I set Israel free." Let your mighty hand cast him out of your servant, N., + so he may no longer hold captive this person whom it pleased you to make in your image, and to redeem through your Son; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever.
All: Amen.
2. Then he commands the demon as follows:
I command you, unclean spirit, whoever you are, along with all your minions now attacking this servant of God, by the mysteries of the incarnation, passion, resurrection, and ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ, by the descent of the Holy Spirit, by the coming of our Lord for judgment, that you tell me by some sign your name, and the day and hour of your departure. I command you, moreover, to obey me to the letter, I who am a minister of God despite my unworthiness; nor shall you be emboldened to harm in any way this creature of God, or the bystanders, or any of their possessions.
3. Next he reads over the possessed person these selections from the Gospel, or at least one of them.
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. John (John 1:1-14)
As he says these opening words he signs himself and the possessed on the brow, lips, and breast.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him, was made nothing that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men: and the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men: and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to bear witness to the light, that all men might believe through him. He was not the light, but was to give testimony to the light. That was the true light, which enlightens every man that comes into this world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, He gave them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in His name. Who was born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. (genuflect). And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, the glory as it were of the Only-Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Mark. (Mark 16:15-18)
At that time Jesus said to His disciples: "Go into the whole world and preach the Gospel to all creation. He that believes and is baptized will be saved; he that does not believe will be condemned. And in the way of proofs of their claims, the following will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will take up serpents in their hands, and if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and these will recover."
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (Luke 10:17-20)
At that time the seventy-two returned in high spirits. "Master," they said, "even the demons are subject to us because we use your name!" "Yes," He said to them, "I was watching Satan fall like lightning that flashes from heaven. But mind: it is I that have given you the power to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and break the dominion of the enemy everywhere; nothing at all can injure you. Just the same, do not rejoice in the fact that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice in the fact that your names are engraved in heaven."
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (Luke 11:14-22)
At that time Jesus was driving out a demon, and this particular demon was dumb. The demon was driven out, the dumb man spoke, and the crowds were enraptured. But some among the people remarked: "He is a tool of Beelzebul, and that is how he drives out demons!" Another group, intending to test Him, demanded of Him a proof of His claims, to be shown in the sky. He knew their inmost thoughts. "Any kingdom torn by civil strife," He said to them, "is laid in ruins; and house tumbles upon house. So, too, if Satan is in revolt against himself, how can his kingdom last, since you say that I drive out demons as a tool of Beelzebul. And furthermore: if I drive out demons as a tool of Beelzebul, whose tools are your pupils when they do the driving out? Therefore, judged by them, you must stand condemned. But, if, on the contrary, I drive out demons by the finger of God, then, evidently the kingdom of God has by this time made its way to you. As long as a mighty lord in full armor guards his premises, he is in peaceful possession of his property; but should one mightier than he attack and overcome him, he will strip him of his armor, on which he had relied, and distribute the spoils taken from him."
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: May He also be with you.
Let us pray.
Almighty Lord, Word of God the Father, Jesus Christ, God and Lord of all creation; who gave to your holy apostles the power to tramp underfoot serpents and scorpions; who along with the other mandates to work miracles was pleased to grant them the authority to say: "Depart, you devils!" and by whose might Satan was made to fall from heaven like lightning; I humbly call on your holy name in fear and trembling, asking that you grant me, your unworthy servant, pardon for all my sins, steadfast faith, and the power--supported by your mighty arm--to confront with confidence and resolution this cruel demon. I ask this through you, Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, who are coming to judge both and the dead and the world by fire.
R. Amen
4. Next he makes the sign of the cross over himself and the one possessed, places the end of the stole on the latter’s neck, and, putting his right hand on the latter’s head, he says the following in accents filled with confidence and faith:
P: See the cross of the Lord; begone, you hostile powers!
All: The stem of David, the lion of Judah's tribe has conquered.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: May He also be with you.
Let us pray.
God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, I appeal to your holy name, humbly begging your kindness, that you graciously grant me help against this and every unclean spirit now tormenting this creature of yours; through Christ our Lord.
All: Amen.
Exorcism
I cast you out, unclean spirit, along with every satanic power of the enemy, every spectre from hell, and all your fell companions; in the name of our Lord Jesus + Christ, begone and stay far from this creature of God. + For it is He who commands you, He who flung you headlong from the heights of heaven into the depths of hell. It is He who commands you, He who once stilled the sea and the wind and the storm. Hearken, therefore, and tremble in fear, Satan, you enemy of the faith, you foe of the human race, you begetter of death, you robber of life, you corrupter of justice, you root of all evil and vice, seducer of men, betrayer of the nations, instigator of envy, font of avarice, fomentor of discord, author of pain and sorrow. Why, then, do you stand and resist, knowing as you must that Christ the Lord brings your plans to nothing? Fear Him, who in Isaac was offered in sacrifice, in Joseph sold into bondage, slain as the paschal lamb, crucified as man, yet triumphed over the powers of hell. (The three signs of the cross which follow are traced on the brow of the possessed person). Begone, then, in the name of the Father, + and of the Son, + and of the Holy + Spirit. Give place to the Holy Spirit by this sign of the holy + cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with the Father and the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever.
All: Amen.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Let us pray.
God, Creator and defender of the human race, who made man in your own image, look down in pity on this your servant, N., now in the toils of the unclean spirit, now caught up in the fearsome threats of man's ancient enemy, sworn foe of our race, who befuddles and stupefies the human mind, throws it into terror, overwhelms it with fear and panic. Repel, O Lord, the devil's power, break asunder his snares and traps, put the unholy tempter to flight. By the sign + (on the brow) of your name, let your servant be protected in mind and body. (The three crosses which follow are traced on the breast of the possessed person). Keep watch over the inmost recesses of his (her) + heart; rule over his (her) + emotions; strengthen his (her) + will. Let vanish from his (her) soul the temptings of the mighty adversary. Graciously grant, O Lord, as we call on your holy name, that the evil spirit, who hitherto terrorized over us, may himself retreat in terror + and defeat, so that this servant of yours may sincerely and steadfastly render you the service which is your due; through Christ our Lord.
All: Amen.
Exorcism
I adjure you, ancient serpent, by the judge of the living and the dead, by your Creator, by the Creator of the whole universe, by Him who has the power to consign you to hell, to depart forthwith in fear, along with your savage minions, from this servant of God, N., who seeks refuge in the fold of the Church. I adjure you again, + (on the brow) not by my weakness but by the might of the Holy Spirit, to depart from this servant of God, N., whom almighty God has made in His image. Yield, therefore, yield not to my own person but to the minister of Christ. For it is the power of Christ that compels you, who brought you low by His cross. Tremble before that mighty arm that broke asunder the dark prison walls and led souls forth to light. May the trembling that afflicts this human frame, + (on the breast) the fear that afflicts this image + (on the brow) of God, descend on you. Make no resistance nor delay in departing from this man, for it has pleased Christ to dwell in man. Do not think of despising my command because you know me to be a great sinner. It is God + Himself who commands you; the majestic Christ + who commands you. God the Father + commands you; God the Son + commands you; God the Holy + Spirit commands you. The mystery of the cross commands + you. The faith of the holy apostles Peter and Paul and of all the saints commands + you. The blood of the martyrs commands + you. The continence of the confessors commands + you. The devout prayers of all holy men and women command + you. The saving mysteries of our Christian faith command + you.
Depart, then, transgressor. Depart, seducer, full of lies and cunning, foe of virtue, persecutor of the innocent. Give place, abominable creature, give way, you monster, give way to Christ, in whom you found none of your works. For He has already stripped you of your powers and laid waste your kingdom, bound you prisoner and plundered your weapons. He has cast you forth into the outer darkness, where everlasting ruin awaits you and your abettors. To what purpose do you insolently resist? To what purpose do you brazenly refuse? For you are guilty before almighty God, whose laws you have transgressed. You are guilty before His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, whom you presumed to tempt, whom you dared to nail to the cross. You are guilty before the whole human race, to whom you profferred by your enticements the poisoned cup of death.
Therefore, I adjure you, profligate dragon, in the name of the spotless + Lamb, who has trodden down the asp and the basilisk, and overcome the lion and the dragon, to depart from this man (woman) + (on the brow), to depart from the Church of God + (signing the bystanders). Tremble and flee, as we call on the name of the Lord, before whom the denizens of hell cower, to whom the heavenly Virtues and Powers and Dominations are subject, whom the Cherubim and Seraphim praise with unending cries as they sing: Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Sabaoth. The Word made flesh + commands you; the Virgin's Son + commands you; Jesus + of Nazareth commands you, who once, when you despised His disciples, forced you to flee in shameful defeat from a man; and when He had cast you out you did not even dare, except by His leave, to enter into a herd of swine. And now as I adjure you in His + name, begone from this man (woman) who is His creature. It is futile to resist His + will. It is hard for you to kick against the + goad. The longer you delay, the heavier your punishment shall be; for it is not men you are contemning, but rather Him who rules the living and the dead, who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire.
All: Amen.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by
P: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Let us pray.
God of heaven and earth, God of the angels and archangels, God of
the prophets and apostles, God of the martyrs and virgins, God who have power to bestow life after death and rest after toil; for there is no other God than you, nor can there be another true God beside you, the Creator of heaven and earth, who are truly a King, whose kingdom is without end; I humbly entreat your glorious majesty to deliver this servant of yours from the unclean spirits; through Christ our Lord.
All: Amen.
Exorcism
Therefore, I adjure you every unclean spirit, every spectre from hell, every satanic power, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who was led into the desert after His baptism by John to vanquish you in your citadel, to cease your assaults against the creature whom He has formed from the slime of the earth for His own honor and glory; to quake before wretched man, seeing in him the image of almighty God, rather than his state of human frailty. Yield then to God, + who by His servant, Moses, cast you and your malice, in the person of Pharaoh and his army, into the depths of the sea. Yield to God, + who, by the singing of holy canticles on the part of David, His faithful servant, banished you from the heart of King Saul. Yield to God, + who condemned you in the person of Judas Iscariot, the traitor. For He now flails you with His divine scourges, + He in whose sight you and your legions once cried out: "What have we to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Have you come to torture us before the time?" Now He is driving you back into the everlasting fire, He who at the end of time will say to the wicked: "Depart from me, you accursed, into the everlasting fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels." For you, O evil one, and for your followers there will be worms that never die. An unquenchable fire stands ready for you and for your minions, you prince of accursed murderers, father of lechery, instigator of sacrileges, model of vileness, promoter of heresies, inventor of every obscenity.
Depart, then, + impious one, depart, + accursed one, depart with all your deceits, for God has willed that man should be His temple. Why do you still linger here? Give honor to God the Father + almighty, before whom every knee must bow. Give place to the Lord Jesus + Christ, who shed His most precious blood for man. Give place to the Holy + Spirit, who by His blessed apostle Peter openly struck you down in the person of Simon Magus; who cursed your lies in Annas and Saphira; who smote you in King Herod because he had not given honor to God; who by His apostle Paul afflicted you with the night of blindness in the magician Elyma, and by the mouth of the same apostle bade you to go out of Pythonissa, the soothsayer. Begone, + now! Begone, + seducer! Your place is in solitude; your abode is in the nest of serpents; get down and crawl with them. This matter brooks no delay; for see, the Lord, the ruler comes quickly, kindling fire before Him, and it will run on ahead of Him and encompass His enemies in flames. You might delude man, but God you cannot mock. It is He who casts you out, from whose sight nothing is hidden. It is He who repels you, to whose might all things are subject. It is He who expels you, He who has prepared everlasting hellfire for you and your angels, from whose mouth shall come a sharp sword, who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire.
All: Amen.

Athanasian Creed
P: Whoever wills to be saved * must before all else hold fast to the Catholic faith.
All: Unless one keeps this faith whole and untarnished, * without doubt he will perish forever.
P: Now this is the Catholic faith: * that we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in unity;
All: Neither confusing the Persons one with the other, * nor making a distinction in their nature.
P: For the Father is a distinct Person; and so is the Son, * and so is the Holy Spirit.
All: Yet the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit possess one Godhead, * co-equal glory, co-eternal majesty.
P: As the Father is, so is the Son, * so also is the Holy Spirit.
All: The Father is uncreated, the Son is uncreated, * the Holy Spirit is uncreated.
P: The Father is infinite, the Son is infinite, * the Holy Spirit is infinite.
All: The Father is eternal, the Son is eternal, * the Holy Spirit is eternal.
P: Yet they are not three eternals, * but one eternal God.
All: Even as they are not three uncreated, or three infinites, * but one uncreated and one infinite God.
P: So likewise the Father is almighty, the Son is almighty, * the Holy Spirit is almighty.
All: Yet they are not three almighties, * but they are the one Almighty.
P: Thus the Father is God, the Son is God, * the Holy Spirit is God.
All: Yet they are not three gods, * but one God.
P: Thus the Father is Lord, the Son is Lord, * the Holy Spirit is Lord.
All: Yet there are not three lords, * but one Lord.
P: For just as Christian truth compels us to profess that each Person is individually God and Lord, * so does the Catholic religion forbid us to hold that there are three gods or lords.
All: The Father was not made by any power; * He was neither created nor begotten.
P: The Son is from the Father alone, * neither created nor made, but begotten.
All: The Holy Spirit is from the Father and the Son, * neither made nor created nor begotten, but He proceeds.
P: So there is one Father, not three; one Son, not three; * one Holy Spirit, not three.
All: And in this Trinity one Person is not earlier or later, nor is one greater or less; * but all three Persons are co-eternal and co-equal.
P: In every way, then, as already affirmed, * unity in Trinity and Trinity in unity is to be worshipped.
All: Whoever, then, wills to be saved * must assent to this doctrine of the Blessed Trinity.
P: But it is necessary for everlasting salvation * that one also firmly believe in the incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
All: True faith, then, requires us to believe and profess * that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is both God and man.
P: He is God, begotten of the substance of the Father from eternity; * He is man, born in time of the substance of His Mother.
All: He is perfect God, and perfect man * subsisting in a rational soul and a human body.
P: He is equal to the Father in His divine nature, * but less than the Father in His human nature as such.
All: And though He is God and man, * yet He is the one Christ, not two;
P: One, however, not by any change of divinity into flesh, * but by the act of God assuming a human nature.
All: He is one only, not by a mixture of substance, * but by the oneness of His Person.
P: For, somewhat as the rational soul and the body compose one man, * so Christ is one Person who is both God and man;
All: Who suffered for our salvation, who descended into hell, * who rose again the third day from the dead;
P: Who ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father almighty, * from there He shall come to judge both the living and the dead.
All: At His coming all men shall rise again in their bodies, * and shall give an account of their works.
P: And those who have done good shall enter into everlasting life, * but those who have done evil into everlasting fire.
All: All this is Catholic faith, * and unless one believes it truly and firmly one cannot be saved.
P: Glory be to the Father...
All: As it was in the beginning...

Prayer Following Deliverance
P: Almighty God, we beg you to keep the evil spirit from further molesting this servant of yours, and to keep him far away, never to return. At your command, O Lord, may the goodness and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ, our Redeemer,
take possession of this man (woman). May we no longer fear any evil
since the Lord is with us; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever.
All: Amen.
Cleansing Prayer (Cabading, pp. 212-213):
Lord Jesus, thank You for sharing with us Your wonderful ministry of healing and deliverance. Thank You for the healing we have seen and experienced today. But we realize that the sickness and evil we encountered are more than our humanities can bear. So cleanse us of any sadness, negativity, or despair that we may have picked up during the course of this ministry.
If our ministry has tempted us to anger, impatience, or lust, cleanse us of those temptations and replace them with love, joy and peace. If any evil spirits have attached themselves to us or oppress us in any way, I command You, spirits of earth, air, fire, or water, of the netherworld or of nature, and all spirits not of the Holy Spirit to depart now and go straight to Jesus Christ, for Him to deal with as He wills.
Come, Holy Spirit, renew us, fill us anew with Your power, love and joy. Strengthen us where we have felt weak and clothe us with Your light. Fill us with life. And Lord Jesus, please send your holy angels to minister to us and our families and to guard and protect us from all sickness, harm, and accidents and guard us on a safe trip home, and grant us a peaceful night’s rest. We praise You now and forever, + Father, Son, and Holy Spirit! Amen.
Extraordinary Form Rite of Exorcism - Latin
Ritus Exorcizandi Obsessos A Daemonio
Sacerdos ab Ordinario delegatus, rite confessus, aut saltem cordo peccata sua detestans, peracto, si commode fieri possit, Sanctissmio Missae sacrificio, divinoque auxilio piis precibus implorato, superpelliceo et stola violacea indutus, et coram se habens obsessum ligatum, si sit periculum, eum, se, et astantes communiat signo crucis, et aspergat aqua benedicta, et genibus flexis, aliis respondentibus, dicat Litanias ordinarias usque ad Preces exclusive.

Psalmus 53
Deus, in nómine tuo salvum me fac: *et in virtúte tua júdica me.

Quóniam aliéni insurrexérunt advérsum me, et fortes quaesiérunt ánimam meam, *et non proposuérunt Deum ante conspéctum suum.
Ecce enim Deus ádjuvat me: * et Dóminus suscéptor est ánimae meae.
Avérte mala inimícis meis: *et in veritáte tua dispérde illos.
Voluntárie sacrificábo tibi, *et confitébor nómini tuo, Dómine: quóniam bonum est: Quóniam ex omni tribulatióne eripuísti me: *et super inimícos meos despéxit óculus meus.

Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, aetérne Deus, Pater Dómini nostri Jesu Christi, qui illum réfugam tyránnum et apóstatam gehénnae ígnibus deputásti, quique Unigénitum tuum in hunc mundum misísti, ut illum rugiéntem contéreret: velóciter atténde, accélera, ut erípias hóminem ad imáginem et similitúdinem tuam creátum, a ruína, et daemónio meridiáno. Da, Dómine, terrórem tuum super béstiam, quae extérminat víneam tuam. Da fidúciam servis tuis contra nequíssimum dracónem pugnáre fortíssime, ne contémnat sperántes in te, et ne dicat, sicut in Pharaóne, qui jam dixit: Deum non novi, nec Israel dimitto.

Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem. (Joan: 1:1-14)
In princípio erat Verbum, et Verbum erat apud Deum, et Deus erat Verbum. Hoc erat in princípio apud Deum. Omnia per ipsum facta sunt: et sine ipso factum est nihil, quod factum est: in ipso vita erat, et vita erat lux hóminum: et lux in ténebris lucet, et ténebrae eam non comprehendérunt. Fuit homo missus a Deo, cui nomen erat Joánnes. Hic venit in testimónium, ut testimónium perhibéret de lumine, ut omnes créderent per illum. Non erat ille lux, sed ut testimónium perhibéret de lúmine. Erat lux vera, quae illúminat omnem hóminem veniéntem in hunc mundum. In mundo erat, et mundus per ipsum factus est, et mundus eum non cognóvit. In própria venit, et sui eum non recepérunt. Quotquot autem recepérunt eum, dedit eis potestátem fílios Dei fíeri, his, qui credunt in nómine ejus: qui non ex sangúinibus, neque ex voluntáte carnis, neque ex voluntáte viri, sed ex Deo nati sunt (hic genuflectitur). Et Verbum caro factum est, et habitávit in nobis: et vídimus glóriam ejus, glóriam quasi Unigéniti a patre, plenum grátiae et veritátis.
R. Deo grátias.
Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Marcum (Marc. 16, 15-18)
In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Eúntes in mundum univérsum, praedicáte Evangélium omni creatúrae. Qui credíderit, et baptizátus fúerit, salvus erit: qui vero non credíderit, condemnábitur. Signa autem eos, qui credíderint, haec sequéntur: In nómine meo daemónia ejícient: linguis loquéntur novis: serpéntes tollent: et si mortíferum quid bíberint, non eis nocébit: super aegros manus impónent, et bene habébunt.
Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam (Luc. 10: 17-20)
In illo témpore: Revérsi sunt septuagínta duo cum gáudio, dicéntes ad Jesum: Dómine, étiam daemónia subjiciúntur nobis in nómine tuo. Et ait illis: Vidébam sátanam sicut fulgur de caelo cadéntem. Ecce dedi vobis potestátem calcándi supra serpéntes, et scorpiónes, et super omnem virtútem inimíci: et nihil vobis nocébit. Verúmtamen in hoc nolíte gaudére, quia spiritus vobis subjiciúntur: gaudéte autem, quod nómina vestra scripta sunt in caelis.
Léctio sancti Evangélii secúndum Lucam (Luc. 11:14-22)
In illo témpore: Erat Jesus ejíciens daemónium, et illud erat mutum. Et cum ejecísset daemónium, locútus est mutus, et admirátae sunt turbae. Quidam autem ex eis dixérunt: In Beélzebub príncipe daemoniórum éjicit daemónia. Et álii tentántes signum de caelo quaerébant ab eo. Ipse autem ut vidit cogitatiónes eórum dixit eis: Omne regnum in seípsum divísum desolábitur, et domus supra domum cadet. Si autem et sátanas in seípsum divísus est, quómodo stabit regnum ejus? qui dícitis, in Beélzebub me ejícere daemónia. Si autem ego in Beélzebub ejício daemónia, fílii vestri in quo ejíciunt? Ideo ipsi júdices vestri erunt. Porro si in dígito Dei ejício daemónia: profécto pervénit in vos regnum Dei. Cum fortis armátus custódit átrium suum in pace sunt ea, quae póssidet. Si autem fórtior eo supervéniens vicerit eum, univérsa arma ejus áuferet, in quibus confidébat, et spólia ejus distribuet.

Et ne contemnéndum putes, dum me peccatórem nimis esse cognóscis. Imperat tibi Deus +. Imperat tibi majéstas Christi +. Imperat tibi Deus Pater +, ímperat tibi Deus Fílius +, ímperat tibi Deus Spíritus Sanctus +. Imperat tibi sacraméntum crucis +. Imperat tibi fides sanctórum Apostolórum Petri et Pauli, et ceterórum Sanctórum +. Imperat tibi Mártyrum sanguis †. Imperat tibi continéntia Confessórum †. Imperat tibi pia Sanctórum et Sanctárum ómnium intercéssio +. Imperat tibi christiánae fídei mysteriórum virtus +. Exi ergo, transgréssor. Exi, sedúctor, plene omni dolo et fallácia, virtútis inimíce, innocéntium persecútor. Da locum, diríssime, da locum, impiíssime, da locum Christo, in quo nihil invenísti de opéribus tuis: qui te spoliávit, qui regnum tuum destrúxit, qui te victum ligávit, et vasa tua dirípuit: qui te projécit in ténebras exterióres, ubi tibi cum minístris tuis erit praeparatus intéritus. Sed quid truculénte reníteris? Quid temerárie detréctas? Reus es omnipoténti Deo, cujus statúta transgréssus es. Reus es Fílio ejus Jesu Christo Dómino nostro, quem tentáre ausus es, et crucifígere paesumpsísti. Reus es humáno géneri, cui tuis persuasiónibus mortis venénum propinásti.
Adjuro ergo te, draco nequíssime, in nómine Agni + immaculáti, qui ambulávit super áspidem et basilíscum, qui conculcávit leónem et dracónem, ut discédas ab hoc hómine + (fiat signum crucis in fronte), discédas ab Ecclésia Dei + (fiat signum crucis super circumstantes): contremísce, et éffuge, invocáto nómine Dómini illíus, quem ínferi tremunt: cui Virtútes caelórum, et Potestátes, et Dominatiónes subjéctae sunt: quem Chérubim et Séraphim indeféssis vócibus laudant, dícentes: Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus Dóminus Deus Sábaoth. Imperat tibi Verbum + caro factum. Imperat tibi natus + ex Vírgine. Imperat tibi Jesus + Nazarénus, qui te, cum discípulos ejus contémneres, elísum atque prostrátum exíre praecépit ab hómine: quo praesénte, cum te ab hómine separásset, nec porcórum gregem íngredi praesumébas. Recéde ergo nunc adjurátus in nómine ejus + ab hómine, quem ipse plasmávit. Durum est tibi velle resístere +. Durum est tibi contra stímulum calcitráre +. Quia quanto tárdius exis, tanto magis tibi supplícium crescit, quia non hómines contémnis, sed illum, qui dominátur vivórum et mortuórum: Qui ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos, et saéculum per ignem.
R. Amen.
V. Dómine, exaudi oratiónem meam.
R. Et clamor meus ad te véniat.
V. Dóminus vobíscum.
R. Et cum spíritu tuo.
Orémus.
Deus cæli, Deus terræ, Deus Angelórum, Deus Archangelórum, Deus Prophetárum, Deus Apostolórum, Deus Mártyrum, Deus Vírginum, Deus, qui potestátem habes donáre vitam post mortem, réquiem post labórem: quia non est álius Deus praeter te, nec esse póterit verus, nisi tu, Creátor cæli et terrae, qui verus Rex es, et cujus regni non erit finis; humíliter majestáti glóriae tuae súpplico, ut hunc fámulum tuum (hanc fámulam tuam) de immúndis spíritibus liberáre dignéris. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum.
R. Amen.
Exorcismus
ADJÚRO ergo te, omnis immundíssime spíritus, omne phantásma, omnis incúrsio sátanae, in nómine Jesu Christi + Nazaréni, qui post lavácrum Joánnis in desértum ductus est, et te in tuis sédibus vicit: ut, quem ille de limo terrae ad honórem gloriae suae formávit, tu désinas impugnáre: et in hómine miserábili non humánam fragilitátem, sed imáginem omnipoténtis Dei contremíscas. Cede ergo Deo +, qui te , et malítiam tuam in Pharaóne, et in exércitu ejus per Moysen servum suum in abýssum demérsit. Cede Deo +, qui te per fidelíssimum servum suum David de rege Saule spirituálibus cánticis pulsum fugávit. Cede Deo +, qui te in Juda Iscarióte proditóre damnávit. Ille enim te divínis + verbéribus tangit, in cujus conspéctu cum tuis legiónibus tremens et clamans dixísti: Quid nobis es tibi, Jesu, Fili Dei altíssimi? Venísti huc ante tempus torquére nos? Ille te perpétuis flammis urget, qui in fine témporum dictúrus est impiis: Discédite a me, maledícti, in ignem aetérnum, qui parátus est diábolo et ángelis ejus. Tibi enim, ímpie, et ángelis tuis vermes erunt, qui numquam moriéntur. Tibi, et ángelis tuis inextinguíbile praeparátur incéndium: quia tu es prínceps maledícte homicídii, tu auctor incéstus, tu sacrilegórum caput, tu actiónum pessimárum magíster, tu haereticórum doctor, tu totius obscoenitátis invéntor. Exi ergo +, ímpie, exi +, sceleráte, exi cum omni fallácia tua: quia hóminem templum suum esse vóluit Deus. Sed quid diútius moráris hic? Da honórem Deo Patri + omnipoténti, cui omne genu fléctitur. Da locum Dómino Jesu + Christo, qui pro hómine sánguinem suum sacratíssimum fudit. Da locum Spíritui + Sancto, qui per beátum Apóstolum suum Petrum te maniféste stravit in Simóne mago; qui falláciam tuam in Ananía et Saphíra condemnávit; qui te in Heróde rege honórem Deo non dante percússit; qui te in mago Elyma per Apóstolum suum Paulum caecitátis calígine pérdidit, et per eúndem de Pythoníssa verbo ímperans exíre praecépit. Discéde ergo nunc +, discéde +, sedúctor. Tibi erémus sedes est. Tibi habitátio serpens est: humiliáre, et prostérnere. Jam non est differéndi tempus. Ecce enim dominátor Dóminus próximat cito, et ignis ardébit ante ipsum, et praecédet, et inflammábit in circúitu inimícos ejus. Si enim hómines fefélleris. Deum non póteris irridére. Ille te éjicit, cujus óculis nihil occúltum est. Ille te expéllit, cujus virtúti univérsa subjécta sunt. Ille te exclúdit, qui tibi, et ángelis tuis praeparávit aetérnam gehénnam; de cujus ore exíbit gládius acútus: qui ventúrus est judicáre vivos et mórtuos et saéculum per ignem. R. Amen.
5. Praedicta omnia, quatenus opus sit, repeti possunt, donec obsessus sit omnino liberatus.

Oratio post Liberationem
Orámus te, Deus omnípotens, ut spíritus iniquitátis ámplius non hábeat potestátem in hoc fámulo tuo N.

Extraordinary Form Rite of Exorcism - English
Rite of Exorcism
1. The priest delegated by the Ordinary to perform this office should first go to confession or at least elicit an act of contrition, and, if convenient, offer the holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and implore God's help in other fervent prayers. He vests in surplice and purple stole. Having before him the person possessed (who should be bound if there is any danger), he traces the sign of the cross over him, over himself, and the bystanders, and then sprinkles all of them with holy water. After this he kneels and says the Litany of the Saints, exclusive of the prayers which follow it. All present are to make the responses. At the end of the litany he adds the following:

P: And lead us not into temptation.
All: But deliver us from evil.
Psalm 53
Save me, O God, By your name, and further my cause by your power. O God, hear my prayer; give ear to the words of my mouth. For proud men have risen against me, and men of violence have sought my life: they have not set God before their eyes. But see - God is my helper; the Lord supports my life. Let the evil recoil upon my foes, and cut them off in thy faithfulness. Gladly will I sacrifice unto you. I will praise your name, O Lord, for it is good. In every need He has delivered me, and my eye has seen the confusion of my foe.
Glory be to the Father…
After the psalm the priest continues:
P: Save your servant.
All: Who trusts in you, my God.
P: Let him (her) find in you, Lord, a fortified tower.
All: In the face of the enemy.
P: Let the enemy have no power over him (her).
All: And the son of iniquity be powerless to harm him (her).
P: Lord, send him (her) aid from your holy place.
All: And watch over him (her) from Sion.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Let us pray.
God, whose nature is ever merciful and forgiving, accept our prayer that this servant of yours, bound by the fetters of sin, may be pardoned by your loving kindness.
Holy Lord, almighty Father, everlasting God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who once and for all consigned that fallen and apostate tyrant to the flames of hell, who sent your only- begotten Son into the world to crush that roaring lion; hasten to our call for help and snatch from ruination and from the clutches of the noonday devil this human being made in your image and likeness. Strike terror, Lord, into the beast now laying waste your vineyard. Fill your servants with courage to fight manfully against that reprobate dragon, lest he despise those who put their trust in you, and say with Pharaoh of old: "I know not God, nor will I set Israel free." Let your mighty hand cast him out of your servant, N., + so he may no longer hold captive this person whom it pleased you to make in your image, and to redeem through your Son; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever.
All: Amen.
2. Then he commands the demon as follows:
I command you, unclean spirit, whoever you are, along with all your minions now attacking this servant of God, by the mysteries of the incarnation, passion, resurrection, and ascension of our Lord Jesus Christ, by the descent of the Holy Spirit, by the coming of our Lord for judgment, that you tell me by some sign your name, and the day and hour of your departure. I command you, moreover, to obey me to the letter, I who am a minister of God despite my unworthiness; nor shall you be emboldened to harm in any way this creature of God, or the bystanders, or any of their possessions.
3. Next he reads over the possessed person these selections from the Gospel, or at least one of them.
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. John (John 1:1-14)
As he says these opening words he signs himself and the possessed on the brow, lips, and breast.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him, was made nothing that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men: and the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men: and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for a witness, to bear witness to the light, that all men might believe through him. He was not the light, but was to give testimony to the light. That was the true light, which enlightens every man that comes into this world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him and the world knew Him not. He came unto His own, and His own did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, He gave them power to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in His name. Who was born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. (genuflect). And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, the glory as it were of the Only-Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Mark. (Mark 16:15-18)
At that time Jesus said to His disciples: "Go into the whole world and preach the Gospel to all creation. He that believes and is baptized will be saved; he that does not believe will be condemned. And in the way of proofs of their claims, the following will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will take up serpents in their hands, and if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and these will recover."
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (Luke 10:17-20)
At that time the seventy-two returned in high spirits. "Master," they said, "even the demons are subject to us because we use your name!" "Yes," He said to them, "I was watching Satan fall like lightning that flashes from heaven. But mind: it is I that have given you the power to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and break the dominion of the enemy everywhere; nothing at all can injure you. Just the same, do not rejoice in the fact that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice in the fact that your names are engraved in heaven."
A Reading from the holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (Luke 11:14-22)
At that time Jesus was driving out a demon, and this particular demon was dumb. The demon was driven out, the dumb man spoke, and the crowds were enraptured. But some among the people remarked: "He is a tool of Beelzebul, and that is how he drives out demons!" Another group, intending to test Him, demanded of Him a proof of His claims, to be shown in the sky. He knew their inmost thoughts. "Any kingdom torn by civil strife," He said to them, "is laid in ruins; and house tumbles upon house. So, too, if Satan is in revolt against himself, how can his kingdom last, since you say that I drive out demons as a tool of Beelzebul. And furthermore: if I drive out demons as a tool of Beelzebul, whose tools are your pupils when they do the driving out? Therefore, judged by them, you must stand condemned. But, if, on the contrary, I drive out demons by the finger of God, then, evidently the kingdom of God has by this time made its way to you. As long as a mighty lord in full armor guards his premises, he is in peaceful possession of his property; but should one mightier than he attack and overcome him, he will strip him of his armor, on which he had relied, and distribute the spoils taken from him."
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: May He also be with you.
Let us pray.
Almighty Lord, Word of God the Father, Jesus Christ, God and Lord of all creation; who gave to your holy apostles the power to tramp underfoot serpents and scorpions; who along with the other mandates to work miracles was pleased to grant them the authority to say: "Depart, you devils!" and by whose might Satan was made to fall from heaven like lightning; I humbly call on your holy name in fear and trembling, asking that you grant me, your unworthy servant, pardon for all my sins, steadfast faith, and the power--supported by your mighty arm--to confront with confidence and resolution this cruel demon. I ask this through you, Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, who are coming to judge both and the dead and the world by fire.
R. Amen
4. Next he makes the sign of the cross over himself and the one possessed, places the end of the stole on the latter’s neck, and, putting his right hand on the latter’s head, he says the following in accents filled with confidence and faith:
P: See the cross of the Lord; begone, you hostile powers!
All: The stem of David, the lion of Judah's tribe has conquered.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: May He also be with you.
Let us pray.
God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, I appeal to your holy name, humbly begging your kindness, that you graciously grant me help against this and every unclean spirit now tormenting this creature of yours; through Christ our Lord.
All: Amen.
Exorcism
I cast you out, unclean spirit, along with every satanic power of the enemy, every spectre from hell, and all your fell companions; in the name of our Lord Jesus + Christ, begone and stay far from this creature of God. + For it is He who commands you, He who flung you headlong from the heights of heaven into the depths of hell. It is He who commands you, He who once stilled the sea and the wind and the storm. Hearken, therefore, and tremble in fear, Satan, you enemy of the faith, you foe of the human race, you begetter of death, you robber of life, you corrupter of justice, you root of all evil and vice, seducer of men, betrayer of the nations, instigator of envy, font of avarice, fomentor of discord, author of pain and sorrow. Why, then, do you stand and resist, knowing as you must that Christ the Lord brings your plans to nothing? Fear Him, who in Isaac was offered in sacrifice, in Joseph sold into bondage, slain as the paschal lamb, crucified as man, yet triumphed over the powers of hell. (The three signs of the cross which follow are traced on the brow of the possessed person). Begone, then, in the name of the Father, + and of the Son, + and of the Holy + Spirit. Give place to the Holy Spirit by this sign of the holy + cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with the Father and the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever.
All: Amen.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by you.
P: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Let us pray.
God, Creator and defender of the human race, who made man in your own image, look down in pity on this your servant, N., now in the toils of the unclean spirit, now caught up in the fearsome threats of man's ancient enemy, sworn foe of our race, who befuddles and stupefies the human mind, throws it into terror, overwhelms it with fear and panic. Repel, O Lord, the devil's power, break asunder his snares and traps, put the unholy tempter to flight. By the sign + (on the brow) of your name, let your servant be protected in mind and body. (The three crosses which follow are traced on the breast of the possessed person). Keep watch over the inmost recesses of his (her) + heart; rule over his (her) + emotions; strengthen his (her) + will. Let vanish from his (her) soul the temptings of the mighty adversary. Graciously grant, O Lord, as we call on your holy name, that the evil spirit, who hitherto terrorized over us, may himself retreat in terror + and defeat, so that this servant of yours may sincerely and steadfastly render you the service which is your due; through Christ our Lord.
All: Amen.
Exorcism
I adjure you, ancient serpent, by the judge of the living and the dead, by your Creator, by the Creator of the whole universe, by Him who has the power to consign you to hell, to depart forthwith in fear, along with your savage minions, from this servant of God, N., who seeks refuge in the fold of the Church. I adjure you again, + (on the brow) not by my weakness but by the might of the Holy Spirit, to depart from this servant of God, N., whom almighty God has made in His image. Yield, therefore, yield not to my own person but to the minister of Christ. For it is the power of Christ that compels you, who brought you low by His cross. Tremble before that mighty arm that broke asunder the dark prison walls and led souls forth to light. May the trembling that afflicts this human frame, + (on the breast) the fear that afflicts this image + (on the brow) of God, descend on you. Make no resistance nor delay in departing from this man, for it has pleased Christ to dwell in man. Do not think of despising my command because you know me to be a great sinner. It is God + Himself who commands you; the majestic Christ + who commands you. God the Father + commands you; God the Son + commands you; God the Holy + Spirit commands you. The mystery of the cross commands + you. The faith of the holy apostles Peter and Paul and of all the saints commands + you. The blood of the martyrs commands + you. The continence of the confessors commands + you. The devout prayers of all holy men and women command + you. The saving mysteries of our Christian faith command + you.
Depart, then, transgressor. Depart, seducer, full of lies and cunning, foe of virtue, persecutor of the innocent. Give place, abominable creature, give way, you monster, give way to Christ, in whom you found none of your works. For He has already stripped you of your powers and laid waste your kingdom, bound you prisoner and plundered your weapons. He has cast you forth into the outer darkness, where everlasting ruin awaits you and your abettors. To what purpose do you insolently resist? To what purpose do you brazenly refuse? For you are guilty before almighty God, whose laws you have transgressed. You are guilty before His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, whom you presumed to tempt, whom you dared to nail to the cross. You are guilty before the whole human race, to whom you profferred by your enticements the poisoned cup of death.
Therefore, I adjure you, profligate dragon, in the name of the spotless + Lamb, who has trodden down the asp and the basilisk, and overcome the lion and the dragon, to depart from this man (woman) + (on the brow), to depart from the Church of God + (signing the bystanders). Tremble and flee, as we call on the name of the Lord, before whom the denizens of hell cower, to whom the heavenly Virtues and Powers and Dominations are subject, whom the Cherubim and Seraphim praise with unending cries as they sing: Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of Sabaoth. The Word made flesh + commands you; the Virgin's Son + commands you; Jesus + of Nazareth commands you, who once, when you despised His disciples, forced you to flee in shameful defeat from a man; and when He had cast you out you did not even dare, except by His leave, to enter into a herd of swine. And now as I adjure you in His + name, begone from this man (woman) who is His creature. It is futile to resist His + will. It is hard for you to kick against the + goad. The longer you delay, the heavier your punishment shall be; for it is not men you are contemning, but rather Him who rules the living and the dead, who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire.
All: Amen.
P: Lord, heed my prayer.
All: And let my cry be heard by
P: The Lord be with you.
All: And with your spirit.
Let us pray.
God of heaven and earth, God of the angels and archangels, God of
the prophets and apostles, God of the martyrs and virgins, God who have power to bestow life after death and rest after toil; for there is no other God than you, nor can there be another true God beside you, the Creator of heaven and earth, who are truly a King, whose kingdom is without end; I humbly entreat your glorious majesty to deliver this servant of yours from the unclean spirits; through Christ our Lord.
All: Amen.
Exorcism
Therefore, I adjure you every unclean spirit, every spectre from hell, every satanic power, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, who was led into the desert after His baptism by John to vanquish you in your citadel, to cease your assaults against the creature whom He has formed from the slime of the earth for His own honor and glory; to quake before wretched man, seeing in him the image of almighty God, rather than his state of human frailty. Yield then to God, + who by His servant, Moses, cast you and your malice, in the person of Pharaoh and his army, into the depths of the sea. Yield to God, + who, by the singing of holy canticles on the part of David, His faithful servant, banished you from the heart of King Saul. Yield to God, + who condemned you in the person of Judas Iscariot, the traitor. For He now flails you with His divine scourges, + He in whose sight you and your legions once cried out: "What have we to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Have you come to torture us before the time?" Now He is driving you back into the everlasting fire, He who at the end of time will say to the wicked: "Depart from me, you accursed, into the everlasting fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels." For you, O evil one, and for your followers there will be worms that never die. An unquenchable fire stands ready for you and for your minions, you prince of accursed murderers, father of lechery, instigator of sacrileges, model of vileness, promoter of heresies, inventor of every obscenity.
Depart, then, + impious one, depart, + accursed one, depart with all your deceits, for God has willed that man should be His temple. Why do you still linger here? Give honor to God the Father + almighty, before whom every knee must bow. Give place to the Lord Jesus + Christ, who shed His most precious blood for man. Give place to the Holy + Spirit, who by His blessed apostle Peter openly struck you down in the person of Simon Magus; who cursed your lies in Annas and Saphira; who smote you in King Herod because he had not given honor to God; who by His apostle Paul afflicted you with the night of blindness in the magician Elyma, and by the mouth of the same apostle bade you to go out of Pythonissa, the soothsayer. Begone, + now! Begone, + seducer! Your place is in solitude; your abode is in the nest of serpents; get down and crawl with them. This matter brooks no delay; for see, the Lord, the ruler comes quickly, kindling fire before Him, and it will run on ahead of Him and encompass His enemies in flames. You might delude man, but God you cannot mock. It is He who casts you out, from whose sight nothing is hidden. It is He who repels you, to whose might all things are subject. It is He who expels you, He who has prepared everlasting hellfire for you and your angels, from whose mouth shall come a sharp sword, who is coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire.
All: Amen.

Athanasian Creed
P: Whoever wills to be saved * must before all else hold fast to the Catholic faith.
All: Unless one keeps this faith whole and untarnished, * without doubt he will perish forever.
P: Now this is the Catholic faith: * that we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in unity;
All: Neither confusing the Persons one with the other, * nor making a distinction in their nature.
P: For the Father is a distinct Person; and so is the Son, * and so is the Holy Spirit.
All: Yet the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit possess one Godhead, * co-equal glory, co-eternal majesty.
P: As the Father is, so is the Son, * so also is the Holy Spirit.
All: The Father is uncreated, the Son is uncreated, * the Holy Spirit is uncreated.
P: The Father is infinite, the Son is infinite, * the Holy Spirit is infinite.
All: The Father is eternal, the Son is eternal, * the Holy Spirit is eternal.
P: Yet they are not three eternals, * but one eternal God.
All: Even as they are not three uncreated, or three infinites, * but one uncreated and one infinite God.
P: So likewise the Father is almighty, the Son is almighty, * the Holy Spirit is almighty.
All: Yet they are not three almighties, * but they are the one Almighty.
P: Thus the Father is God, the Son is God, * the Holy Spirit is God.
All: Yet they are not three gods, * but one God.
P: Thus the Father is Lord, the Son is Lord, * the Holy Spirit is Lord.
All: Yet there are not three lords, * but one Lord.
P: For just as Christian truth compels us to profess that each Person is individually God and Lord, * so does the Catholic religion forbid us to hold that there are three gods or lords.
All: The Father was not made by any power; * He was neither created nor begotten.
P: The Son is from the Father alone, * neither created nor made, but begotten.
All: The Holy Spirit is from the Father and the Son, * neither made nor created nor begotten, but He proceeds.
P: So there is one Father, not three; one Son, not three; * one Holy Spirit, not three.
All: And in this Trinity one Person is not earlier or later, nor is one greater or less; * but all three Persons are co-eternal and co-equal.
P: In every way, then, as already affirmed, * unity in Trinity and Trinity in unity is to be worshipped.
All: Whoever, then, wills to be saved * must assent to this doctrine of the Blessed Trinity.
P: But it is necessary for everlasting salvation * that one also firmly believe in the incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
All: True faith, then, requires us to believe and profess * that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is both God and man.
P: He is God, begotten of the substance of the Father from eternity; * He is man, born in time of the substance of His Mother.
All: He is perfect God, and perfect man * subsisting in a rational soul and a human body.
P: He is equal to the Father in His divine nature, * but less than the Father in His human nature as such.
All: And though He is God and man, * yet He is the one Christ, not two;
P: One, however, not by any change of divinity into flesh, * but by the act of God assuming a human nature.
All: He is one only, not by a mixture of substance, * but by the oneness of His Person.
P: For, somewhat as the rational soul and the body compose one man, * so Christ is one Person who is both God and man;
All: Who suffered for our salvation, who descended into hell, * who rose again the third day from the dead;
P: Who ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father almighty, * from there He shall come to judge both the living and the dead.
All: At His coming all men shall rise again in their bodies, * and shall give an account of their works.
P: And those who have done good shall enter into everlasting life, * but those who have done evil into everlasting fire.
All: All this is Catholic faith, * and unless one believes it truly and firmly one cannot be saved.
P: Glory be to the Father...
All: As it was in the beginning...

Prayer Following Deliverance
P: Almighty God, we beg you to keep the evil spirit from further molesting this servant of yours, and to keep him far away, never to return. At your command, O Lord, may the goodness and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ, our Redeemer,
take possession of this man (woman). May we no longer fear any evil
since the Lord is with us; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever.
All: Amen.
A Deliverance Prayer by Fr. Gabriel Amorth
A Deliverance Prayer from Fr. Gabriel Amorth
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.
Liberate us from all evil and all diabolic disturbance. You who through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, your beloved Son, has delivered us from the power of darkness and death and has translated us into Thy Kingdom of light and holiness, free our brother/sister N. now from all domain and connection to Satan and his angels. Free him of all evil forces, crush them, destroy them so that N. can get well and live according to Thy most Holy Will. Deliver him from all malefices, from witchcraft, from black masses, from spells, from maledictions, from evil eye, from satanic rites, from satanic cults, from consecrations to Satan. Destroy all connections to Satan and to all people connected to Satan, living or dead. Deliver him/her from all diabolical infestations, from all diabolical possession, from all diabolical obsession, and from all sin or consequence of sin. Destroy all these evils in hell, that they may never torment N. again or any other creature in the entire world. God the Father Almighty, I beseech Thee, in the Name of Jesus Christ our Saviour and through the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin to order all unclean spirits, all the powers that molest N. to leave him/her immediately, and to leave him/her forever and to be consigned into the everlasting hell, where they will be thrust by Saint Michael the archangel, Saint Gabriel, by Saint Raphael, by our Guardian Angels, crushed beneath the heel of the Blessed Virgin Mary our Immaculate Mother. Thou who has created man in Your own image and likeness in holiness and justice and has not forsaken him after sin, but with wise providence saved him through the mystery of the incarnation, passion, death and resurrection of Thy most beloved Son, save your servant and deliver him/her from evil and from the enemy's slavery; banish from him/her the spirit of lying, pride, lust, greed, anger, envy, gluttony, sloth, and all kinds of evil. Receive him/her in Thy Kingdom, open his/her heart to understand Thy Gospel, so that he/she may live always as a child of light, may witness the truth and practice works of charity according to Thy commandments. With the breath of Thy mouth, Lord, cast the evil spirits out: order them to leave because Thy Kingdom come. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, who is God with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit.
R. Amen
The Lord free you from all evil, in the name of the + Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
R. Amen.
Let us bless the Lord
R. Thanks be to God

St. Michael Prayer of Protection of Technology for Liberation
PRAYER TO ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL FOR THE PROTECTION OF EQUIPMENT AND TECHNOLOGY FOR THE TRANSMISSION, STREAMING, BROADCAST, AND PUBLICATION OF THE GOSPEL MESSAGE OF SPIRITUAL LIBERATION
This prayer is recommended whenever technological equipment is used to stream or broadcast deliverance prayers and anything connected to the ministry of spiritual liberation and exorcism over the internet, airwaves, or publication.
O Glorious Archangel St. Michael, Prince of the heavenly host, be our defense in the terrible warfare, which we carry on against principalities and powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, and spirits of evil.
Come to the aid of man, whom God created immortal, made in His own image and likeness, and redeemed at a great price from the tyranny of the devil. Fight this day the battle of the Lord, together with the holy angels, as already thou hast fought the leader of the proud angels, Lucifer, and his apostate host, who were powerless, to resist Thee, nor was there place for them any longer in heaven. That cruel, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil or Satan, who seduces the whole world, was cast into the abyss with his angels.
Behold, this primeval enemy and slayer of men has taken courage. Transformed into an angel of light, he wanders about with all the multitude of wicked spirits, invading the earth in order to blot out the name of God and of His Christ, to seize upon, slay and cast into eternal perdition souls destined for the crown of eternal glory. This wicked dragon pours out, as a most impure flood, the venom of his malice on men, his depraved mind, corrupt heart, his spirit of lying, impiety, blasphemy, his pestilential breath of impurity and of every vice and iniquity. These most crafty enemies have filled and inebriated with gall and bitterness the Church, the Spouse of the Immaculate Lamb, and have laid impious hands on her most sacred possessions. In the Holy Place itself, where has been set up the See of the most holy Peter and the Chair of Truth for the light of the world, they have raised the throne of their abominable impiety, with the iniquitous design that when the Pastor has been struck, the sheep may be scattered.
Arise then, O invincible Prince, bring help against the attacks of the lost spirits to the people of God, and give them the victory. They venerate Thee as their protector and patron; in Thee Holy Church glories as her defense against the malicious power of hell; to Thee has God entrusted the souls of men to be established in heavenly beatitude. Oh, pray to the God of peace that He may put Satan under our feet, so far conquered that he may no longer be able to hold men in captivity and harm the Church. Offer our prayers in the sight of the Most High, so that they may quickly conciliate the mercies of the Lord; and beating down the dragon, the ancient serpent who is the devil and Satan, do Thou again make him captive in the abyss, that he may no longer seduce the nations. Amen.
V. Behold the + Cross of the Lord; be scattered, hostile powers.
R. The Lion of the tribe of Judah has conquered the root of David.
V. Let Thy mercies be upon us, 0 Lord
R. As we had hoped in Thee.
V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto Thee.
This prayer is added to beseech God through the intercession of the saints to protect all equipment and technology used to transmit spiritual liberation and exorcism prayers.
Let us pray.
God, Almighty Father, through the powerful patronage of St. Michael the Archangel and the whole Angelic Hosts of Heaven, we entrust and consecrate this spiritual liberation and exorcism ministry, the equipment, and its transmission through the internet and other media. Empower St. Michael and the holy angels to crush Satan and his minions, both invisible and visible, so that they may not be able to sabotage our ministry and its technological transmission from end to end, from source to the homes of the faithful. That your faithful people may receive the broadcast smoothly and clearly without interruption. That the Holy Angels protect all the devices we use to broadcast or receive the transmission. May the live and replayed broadcast of the spiritual liberation prayers be ever so powerful as to destroy all demonic strongholds in our lives, our families, our loved ones, those we cherish, our people, our nation, and the whole human race. This we humbly ask of you, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Angels, St. Joseph, Protector of Holy Church, St. Gabriel the Archangel, bearer of the Good News, and Blessed Carlo Acutis, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, the sovereign King. Amen.
St. Gabriel the Archangel and Bl. Carlo Acutis, open all channels and protect these from demonic interference for the good of the Christian peoples. Amen.
Holy water can be used to sprinkle the equipment and room.
