Prayers to Protect Us: A Collection of Prayers, Litanies, Hymns, and Readings

A powerful collection of prayers, hymns, and readings for spiritual protection

The Christian journey is a spiritual battle, and the enemy is ever watchful, seeking to lead the faithful astray. Prayers to Protect Us: A Collection of Prayers, Litanies, Hymns, and Readings offers a powerful resource for those seeking God’s protection and strength in their daily struggles against evil.

This book, an expanded edition of Prayers Against the Powers of Darkness, includes the same prayers for the laity from the Church’s official book for exorcism, along with additional hymns, Scripture passages, and prayers drawn from the Church’s liturgical and traditional sources. These spiritual weapons help Catholics remain steadfast in faith, resist temptation, and seek the protection of God, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the saints.

Prayers to Protect Us includes:

• Prayers Against the Powers of Darkness, a complete appendix of prayers approved for use by the laity from Exorcisms and Related Supplications, the ritual book used by exorcists

• Liturgical Prayers for Protection, with materials from the Roman Missal, the Liturgy of the Hours, and others

• Prayers of the Saints for Protection, for invoking the intercession of St. Patrick, St. Benedict, St. Thomas Aquinas, and more

• Litanies and Hymns for Protection

• Biblical Passages and Other Readings About Spiritual Warfare and Protection, with excerpts from the Old and New Testaments, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the writings of St. John Paul II, St. Catherine of Siena, and more

The prayers, litanies, and readings in this collection are powerful tools for all Catholics seeking strength and perseverance against the forces of darkness. May this book serve as a source of comfort, fortitude, and hope, helping the faithful to stand firm in Christ’s victory over sin and death.
