- - - - - - - - - - PRAYERS ORIGINAL PRAYER TO ST. MICHAEL To be prayed holding Crucifix aloft (“Raise up the Agonizing Crucifix I gave you against the power of darkness and say this prayer with the sign of the cross. Do this in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. You will conquer… Say this prayer every day, since the battle is great...”) O Glorious Prince of the Heavenly Host, St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in the battle and in the terrible warfare that we are waging against the principalities and powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, against the evil spirits. Come to the aid of man, whom Almighty God created immortal, made in his own image and likeness, and redeemed at a great price from the tyranny of Satan. 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, 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 wonders 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 of depraved mind and corrupt heart, the spirit of lying, of impiety, of blasphemy, and the pestilent 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 the See of the most Holy Peter and the Chair of Truth has been set up as 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. 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 find mercy in the sight of the Lord; and vanquishing 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. L: Behold the Cross of the Lord; be scattered ye hostile powers. R: The Lion of the tribe of Judah has conquered the root of David. L: Let Thy mercies be upon us, O Lord. R: As we have hoped in Thee. L: O Lord, hear my prayer. R: And let my cry come unto Thee. L: Let us pray O God, the Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ, we call upon Thy Holy Name, and as supplicants we implore Thy clemency, that by the intercession of Mary, ever Virgin, Immaculate and Our Mother, and of the glorious St. Michael the Archangel, Thou wouldst deign to help us against Satan and all the other unclean spirits, who wander about the world for the injury of the human race and the ruin of souls. Amen. POWERFUL INVOCATION OF PROTECTION To be prayed holding Crucifix aloft Adoration! Adoration!! Adoration!!! To Thee, O powerful weapon. Adoration! Adoration!! Adoration!!! To Thy Precious Blood.

(3 times) PRAYER FOR THE NEW ISRAEL To Acknowledge the Value of the Price of Their Redemption Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) 36:1-19 Have mercy upon us, O God of all, and behold us, And show us the light of Thy mercies: Send Thy fear upon the nations that have not sought after Thee; That they may know that there is no God beside Thee, And that they may show forth Thy wonders. Lift up Thy hand over the strange nations, That they may see Thy power. For as Thou hast been sanctified in us in their sight, So Thou shalt be magnified among them in our presence, That they may know Thee, as we also have known Thee, That there is no God beside Thee, O Lord. Renew Thy signs, and work new miracles. Glorify Thy hand, and Thy right arm. Raise up indignation, and pour out wrath. Take away the adversary, and crush the enemy. Hasten the time, and remember the end, That they may declare Thy wonderful works. Let him that escapeth be consumed by the rage of the fire; And let them perish that oppress Thy people. Crush the head of the princes of the enemies that say: There is no other beside us. Gather together all the tribes of Jacob, That they may know that there is no God besides Thee, And may declare Thy great works, And Thou shalt inherit them as from the beginning. Have mercy on Thy people, Upon whom Thy name is invoked; And upon Israel, Whom Thou hast raised up to be Thy firstborn. Have mercy on Jerusalem, The city which Thou hast sanctified, The city of Thy rest. Fill Sion with Thy unspeakable words, And Thy people with Thy glory. Give testimony to them That are Thy creatures from the beginning, And raise up the prophesies Which the former prophets spoke in Thy name. Reward them that patiently wait for Thee, That Thy prophets may be found faithful; And hear the prayers of Thy servants, According to the blessing of Aaron over Thy people, And direct us into the way of justice, And let all know that dwell upon the earth, That Thou art God the beholder of all ages. Amen. Precious Blood of Jesus Christ refine the Church and wash us clean. (3 times) Our Father*…Hail Mary* (3 times)…Glory Be* (3 times)… PRAYER OF DIVINE PRAISE AND ADORATION Holy, Holy, Holy! Blessed be the Holy Name of God. Blessed be the Eternal Love. Blessed be the Most Precious Blood. All glory, honor and praise be to Jesus Crucified. Adoration be to the Most Holy Trinity.
