Prayer for Healing
the Family Tree
Heavenly Father, I come before You as Your child, in great need
of Your help. I have physical health needs, emotional needs,
spiritual needs, and interpersonal needs. Many of my problems have
been caused by my own failures, neglect and sinfulness, for which I
humbly beg Your forgiveness, Lord. But I also ask You to forgive
the sins of my ancestors whose failures have left their effects on
me in the form of unwanted tendencies, behaviour patterns and
defects in body, mind and spirit. Heal me, Lord, of all these
disorders.
With Your help I sincerely forgive everyone, especially living
or dead members of my family tree, who have directly offended me,
or my loved ones in any way, or those whose sins have resulted in
our present sufferings and disorders. In the name of Your divine
Son Jesus, and in the power of His Holy Spirit, I ask You, Father,
to deliver me and my entire family tree from the influence of the
evil one. Free all living and dead members of my family tree,
including those in adoptive relationships, and those in extended
family relationships, from every contaminating form of bondage; By
Your loving concern for us, heavenly Father, and by the shed blood
of your Precious Son Jesus, I beg You to extend Your blessing to me
and all my living and deceased relatives. Heal every negative
effect transmitted through all past generations, and prevent such
negative effects in future generations of my family
tree.
I symbolically place the Cross of Jesus over the head of each
person in my family tree, and between each generation; I ask You to
let the cleansing blood of Jesus purify the blood lines in my
family lineage. Set Your protective angels to encamp around us, and
permit Archangel Raphael, the patron of healing, to administer Your
divine healing power to all of us, even in areas of genetic
disability. Give special power to our family members' guardian
angels to heal, protect, guide and encourage each of us in all our
needs. Let Your healing power be released at this very moment and
let it continue as long as Your sovereignty permits.
In our family tree, Lord, replace all bondage with a holy
bonding in family love. And let there be an even deeper bonding
with You, Lord, by the Holy Spirit, to Your Son Jesus. Let the
family of the Holy Trinity pervade our family with its tender,
warm, loving presence, so that our family may recognize and
manifest that love in all our relationships. All of our unknown
needs we include with this petition that we pray in Jesus precious
Name. Amen. ~ (Fr. John Hampsch)

Prayer in times of
danger
O God, Who
knows us to be set in the midst of such great perils, that, by
reason of the weakness of our nature, we cannot stand upright,
grant us such health of mind and body, that those evils which we
suffer for our sins we may overcome through Your assistance.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayers for
Protection;
Visit our homes, we beg you, Lord, and banish from them
the deadly power of the evil one. May your holy angels dwell in
them to keep us in peace, and may your blessing be always upon us.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen. (from the Church's night
prayer)
Saint 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 Divine Power of God - cast into hell, satan and all
the evil spirits, who roam throughout the world seeking the ruin of
souls. Amen.
In the Name of Jesus, I take authority and I bind all powers
and forces in the air, in the ground, in the water, in the
underground, in nature and in fire. You are the Lord over the
entire universe and I give you the Glory for your creation. In your
name I bind all demonic forces that have come against us and our
families and I seal all of us in the protection of Your Precious
Blood that was shed for us on the cross. Mary, our Mother, we seek
your protection and intercession with the Sacred Heart of Jesus for
us and our families, and surround us with your mantle of love to
discourage the enemy. St. Michael and our Guardian Angels come
defend us and our families in battle against all the evil ones that
roam the earth. In the Name of Jesus, I bind and command all the
powers and forces of evil to depart right now away from us, our
homes and our lands. And we thank you Lord Jesus for You are a
faithful and compassionate God. Amen.

Father, I pray this prayer in the power or the Holy
Spirit.
In the name
of Jesus Christ, I bind, rebuke and bring to no effect, all
division, discord, disunity, strife, anger, wrath, murder,
criticism, condemnation, pride, envy, jealousy, gossip, slander,

false manifestations, lying signs and wonders, poverty, fear of
lack, fear spirits, murmuring spirits, hindering spirits,
retaliatory spirits, deceiving spirits, religious spirits, occult

Apollyon) and spirits of antichrist.
I bind all
curses that have been spoken against me. I bless those who curse
me, and pray blessings on those who despitefully use me.
I bind all
spoken judgment made against me and judgments I have made against
others. I bind the power of negative words from others, and I bind
and render useless all prayers not inspired by the Holy Spirit;

home and my finances.
I confess

durable, incorruptible, fruitful, virtuous, full of peace, patience
and love. Whatsoever I set my hand to do shall prosper, for God
supplies all my needs. I have all authority over Satan, all demons,
and beasts of the field. God, I pray for the ministry that you have
for me. Anoint me, God, for all you have called me to do for
you.
I call forth
divine appointments, open doors of opportunity, God ordained
encounters and ministry positions. I claim a hedge of protection
around myself, spouse and children throughout this day and
night.
I ask you
God, in the name of Jesus to dispatch angels to surround me, my
spouse and my children today, and to put them throughout my house
and around our cars, souls and bodies. I ask angels to protect my
house from any intrusion and to protect me and my family from any
harmful demonic or other physical or mental attacks. I ask this
prayer in the name of Jesus, AMEN.

those who care for them, grant patient understanding and a love
that perseveres. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

The Longer Version of the
Saint Michael the Archangel Prayer, composed by Pope Leo XIII,
1888
O glorious Archangel Saint
Michael, Prince of the heavenly host, be our defence in the
terrible warfare which we carry on against principalities and
powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, 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 our
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.
That 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 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 defence against the malicious powers 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.
Verse: Behold the Cross of
the Lord; be scattered ye hostile powers.
Response: The Lion of the
Tribe of Judah has conquered the root of David.
Verse: Let Thy mercies be
upon us, O Lord.
Response: As we have hoped
in Thee.
Verse: O Lord hear my
prayer.
Response: And let my cry
come unto Thee.
Verse: Let us
pray. O God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we call
upon Thy holy Name, and as suppliants, we implore Thy clemency,
that by the intercession of Mary, ever Virgin, immaculate and our
Mother, and of the glorious Archangel Saint Michael, Thou wouldst
deign to help us against Satan and all other unclean spirits, who
wander about the world for the injury of the human race and the
ruin of our souls.
Response:
Amen.

Prayer to Mary Queen of Heaven
O exalted Queen of Heaven, Supreme Mistress of the
Angels, who from the beginning has received from God the power and
the commission to crush the serpent’s head, we pray thee humbly,
send down thy holy legions, that they under thy command and power,
may pursue the spirits of hell, everywhere wage war against them,
defeat their boldness and thrust them into the abyss of hell - Who
is like unto God O kind and tender Mother, thou shalt ever remain
our love and hope. O Divine Master, send thy holy angels to defend
me and cast away from me the cruel enemy. Holy angels and
archangels, defend us, protect us! Amen.

A Prayer to St. Clare for Healing
O Blessed Saint Clare, your life shines like a beacon and casts its light down the ages of the Church to guide the way to Christ. Look with compassion
on the poor and humble who call on you for help. As you bow before your Eucharistic Lord in Heaven, speak to Him of my afflicted body and my broken
spirit. Ask Him to heal me and to wash away my sins in his precious blood.
Holy and beloved saint, teach me to believe, as you did, that in the Blessed Eucharist I will find Jesus, who has only to say the word that I may be
healed.
Pause and reflect on the power of Jesus to heal us.
Great servant of Christ, remember the needs of my family and all those I pray for. Defend us from everything that would threaten our Holy Catholic
Faith. Hear the cry of the poor and make it a song of intercession rising from your pure heart to the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, our healer, our
Saviour, and our Lord. Amen.

C.S Lewis writes on perseverance: 'You must ask for God's help. Even when you have done so, it may seem to you for a long time that no help, or less help than you need, is being given. Never mind. After each failure, ask forgiveness, pick yourself up and try again. Very often what God first helps us toward is not the virtue itself but just this power of always trying again. For however important chastity, or courage, or truthfulness, or any other virtue may be, this process trains us in habits of the soul which are more important still. It cures our illusions about ourselves and teaches us to depend on God. We learn, on the one hand, that we cannot trust ourselves even in our best moments, and, on the other, that we need not despair even in our worst, for our failures are forgiven.'
~ C. S. Lewis
