A Powerful Prayer for Healing & Protection

Posted in: Prayer & Devotions

This prayer was written by a priest named Father Bob Hilz. It covers so much and is powerful for the times when life is particularly challenging or you feel greatly oppressed.


“Heavenly Father, I praise and thank You for all You have given me and ask forgiveness for my sins. Please cover me with the protective Precious Blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ (Exodus 12:7), and increase your Holy Spirit in me with His gifts of Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, Discernment (1 Corinthians 12:4-11), Guidance (John 16:13) and Hunger for Prayer to help me know Your will and surrender to it more completely. (Titus 2:14)

Farther, please remove my negative emotions and any wounds in my heart and spirit; please send the Sword of your Holy Spirit to sever and break all spells, curses, hexes, voodoo, witchcraft, and all negative genetic, inter-generational and addictive material; past, present or to come, against me, my relationships and family, finances, possessions and ministry.

Father, I forgive and I ask forgiveness for my sins and failings (Matthew 6: 14-15), and I ask that my whole person, heart and mind, body and will, soul and spirit, memory and emotions, attitudes and values, lie cleansed, (Revelations 7:14) renewed and protected by The Precious Blood of Your Son Jesus.

In the Name, Power, Blood and Authority of Jesus Christ, I bind and break the power and effect in and around me of any and all evil spirits who are trying to harm me (1 Peter 5:8-9) in any way, and I command these spirits and their companion spirits in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, to leave me peacefully and quietly and go immediately and directly to the Eucharistic Presence of Jesus Christ in the closest Catholic Church tabernacle to be disposed of by Jesus, and never to return again to harm me. Dear Holy Spirit, please fill up any void in me, (Romans 5:5) to overflow with Your great Love. All this, Father, I pray in the Name of Jesus, by the guidance of your Holy Spirit. (John 16:13) Immaculate Heart of Mary, Spouse of the Holy Spirit, please pray for me and for those around me. Amen.
