Prayer to Saint Michael

Prayer For Help Against Spiritual Enemies
Glorious Saint Michael, Prince of the heavenly hosts,
who stands always ready to give assistance to the
people of God; who fought with the dragon, the old
serpent, and cast him out of heaven, and now valiantly
defends the Church of God that the gates of hell may
never prevail against her, I earnestly entreat you to
assist me also, in the painful and dangerous conflict
which I sustain against the same formidible foe. Be
with me, O mighty Prince! that I may courageously
fight and vanquish that proud spirit, whom you, by the
Divine Power, gloriously overthrew, and whom our
powerful King, Jesus Christ, has, in our nature,
completely overcome; so having triumphed over the
enemy of my salvation, I may with you and the holy
angels, praise the clemency of God who, having refused mercy to the
rebellious angels after their fall, has granted repentance and forgiveness to
fallen man. Amen.

Prayer to Saint Michael
Saint Michael, Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the
wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray.
And you, Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into
Hell Satan and the other evil spirits who prowl the world for the ruin of
souls. Amen.
Pope Leo XIII (1878-1903)
