A Prayer Inspired by Jesus Casting Out the Unclean Spirit

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, You who, with a single word, commanded the unclean spirit to leave the tormented man, we come to You today with faith and trust, asking You to stretch out Your holy hand upon us and cast away every evil spirit and every chain that hinders us from living in Your grace.
 

Lord, just as You freed that man in the synagogue, free our hearts from anything that draws us away from You.

If there is fear, fill us with Your peace.

If there is darkness, shine upon us with the light of Your holy face.

If there are spiritual bonds, break them with Your divine authority.

In Your mighty name, O Jesus of Nazareth, we command every unclean spirit that tries to sow doubt, despair, and sin in our lives to depart, for we belong to You and remain with You forever.

Lord, fill us with Your Holy Spirit, purify our hearts, and keep us under the shadow of Your wings, so that we may always belong to You and, with the angels, proclaim: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty!"

Amen.
