Prayers for a Person

O God, in your pity you looked upon a fallen world, and sent your Beloved Son among us to vanquish the powers of wickedness. Deliver N. from bondage to sin and evil. Purify their desires and thoughts with the light of your Holy Spirit. Nourish them with your holy Word, strengthen them in faith, and confirm them in good works; through Jesus Christ our Deliverer. Amen.

God of love and wisdom,
you know all our anxieties and fears:
grant that N. may cast all their care on you,
knowing that you care for them.
Give them quietness of mind,
an unshaken trust in you,
and keep them in your perfect peace;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayers for a Place

Almighty and everlasting God, grant to this home the grace of your presence, that you may be known to be the inhabitant of this dwelling, and the defender of this household; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Visit, Lord, our homes
and drive far from them all the snares
of the evil one:
let your holy angels dwell in them
to preserve us in peace
and may your blessing rest upon us evermore;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Let the mighty power of the Holy God be present in this place to banish from it every unclean spirit, to cleanse it from every residue of evil, and to make it a secure habitation for those who dwell in it; in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

A General Prayer

O most merciful and mighty God, your Son Jesus Christ was born of the Blessed Virgin Mary to bring us salvation and to establish your Kingdom on earth: Grant that Michael and all your angels may defend your people against Satan and every evil foe, and that at the last we may come to that heavenly country where your saints for ever sing your praise; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Psalm 91

You who live in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,
will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.”
For he will deliver you from the snare of the hunter and from the deadly pestilence;
he will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and defence.
You will not fear the terror of the night or the arrow that flies by day
or the pestilence that stalks in darkness or the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.
You will only look with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.
Because you have made the Lord your refuge, the Most High your dwelling place,
no evil shall befall you, no scourge come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up, so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.
You will tread on the lion and the adder; the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.
Those who love me, I will deliver; I will protect those who know my name.
When they call to me, I will answer them; I will be with them in trouble; I will rescue them and honour them.
With long life I will satisfy them and show them my salvation.

The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours
now and for ever. Amen.

Blessings

All our problems,
we send to the cross of Christ.
All our difficulties,
we send to the cross of Christ.
All the devil's works,
we send to the cross of Christ.
All our hopes,
we set on the risen Christ.

Christ the Sun of Righteousness shine upon you
and scatter the darkness before your path;
and the blessing of God Almighty,
the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
be amongst you, and remain with you always. Amen.

May the cross of the Son of God,
which is mightier than all the hosts of Satan,
and more glorious than all the hosts of heaven,
abide with me in my going out and my coming in.
By day and by night, at morning and at evening,
at all times and in all places may it protect and defend me.
From the wrath of evildoers, from the assaults of evil spirits,
from foes visible and invisible, from the snares of the devil,
from all passions that beguile the soul and body:
may it guard, protect and deliver me. Amen.

The Lord bless you and keep you.
The Lord make his face to shine upon you,
and be gracious to you.
The Lord lift up the light of his countenance upon you,
and give you peace, now and for evermore. Amen.
