Deliverance & Spiritual Protection
Prayer of Authority (For Spouse and Children)
Catholic teaching on deliverance rests on the principle that authority follows office: a bishop holds authority over his diocese, a pastor over his parish, and parents over their household.
Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, and by the authority You have given me over my family, I claim the protection of the Precious Blood of Jesus for my spouse and for each of my children.
I renounce, in their name and my own, every work of the enemy, every curse, every occult bond and every generational spirit that has come down to us.
I place my household under the patronage of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph and St. Michael the Archangel, and I ask You, Lord, to send Your angels to guard every one of us, in Jesus' name. Amen.
Fr. Chad Ripperger, Deliverance Prayers: For Use by the Laity
About the prayer
This prayer applies that principle domestically, so that a father or mother may pray protection over the children God has entrusted to them. Fr. Ripperger emphasizes throughout Deliverance Prayers that the laity must remain strictly within the authority proper to them; this prayer is the ordinary exercise of that authority, not a substitute for the ministry of a priest.
