Powerful Prayers for protection against evil

I don't think God listens to your words as much as he listens to your heart. A scripted prayer must sound to God like Joe Biden reading a teleprompter.

Prayer is more than a request list and "no" is also an answer to prayer.

three times God has listened to my prayers. yuri andropov dying of kidney failure, jesse jackson comming back with goodman on the same plane, and i got Him to move a hurricane. God seldom says no to me. i seldom ask Him favors.

I always think of prayer as talking to God to change MY attitude and intentions to match HIS rather than request what I want. Scripture says that if I ask for anything in HIS NAME, He will grant me the desires of my heart. The scripture does not say that God will grant my wants.

Thankfully the Holy Spirit edits your prayers.

Prayer to Saint Michael
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

There is a story about this prayer and its origins. Will need to share it sometime.

i'll be looking forward to that. Just don't wait too long. God may grant Jirqoadai's request.

Good morning and many blessings to you all this fine Sunday!!!

Thought I’d share a prayer. This is a prayer for guidance when making important changes in life and even for such a time as this that we are living in:

Lord and Master, you know well that I scarcely know what is good for me, but now that I am thinking about beginning on this new venture, how will I know what is right unless You Yourself guide me with Your Grace? Grant me, Lord, Your guidance in all things related to this matter, so that I do not simply follow my personal inclinations and come to grief; but rather You Yourself guide me and hold me safe so that what I do will be in accordance with Your good will. If this plan is good in Your eyes, give me Your blessing to bring it to a successful end. If it is not, then remove the desire for it from my heart. You know all things, Lord, and nothing is concealed from You. I am Your servant; deal with me as You see right, for I know that I can never win peace or success unless I join myself to Your blessed will. Teach me, Lord, to say on each occasion: “Not as I will, but as You will.” For yours is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory; of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Both now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
