We have a prayer -very thorough and powerful- that is supposed to life curses. My quesiton is: how does a person become cursed in the first place?
Then Jesus went around teaching from village to village. Calling the Twelve to him, he sent them out two by two and gave them authority over evil spirits.
These were his instructions: “Take nothing for the journey except a staff—no bread, no bag, no money in your belts. 9Wear sandals but not an extra tunic. Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave that town. And if any place will not welcome you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave, as a testimony against them.”
They went out and preached that people should repent. They drove out many demons and anointed many sick people with oil and healed them.
There is a lot of reference in the NT on casting out of demons, evil spirits, etc. 2,000 years ago people with disorders such as schizophrenia, epilepsy, bi-polar illness, etc, were seen as being possessed by demons when in reality their behavior was caused by illness. When Christ cured these people their “demons” went away. We have to be careful what exactly we’re attributiing to demons. Which is why every case of alleged demonic possession is carefully scrutinized by the Church.As I understood it from a Fr. Corapi CD blessings are prayers that are attached to objects. Where the object goes, so goes the prayer.
Satanist curses work in the reverse of blessings. They beseech the powers of evil to do X. If Satan pays attention this work may be done by the hands of demons.
Curses are begotten by people asking evil powers for them. They’re agents are evil spirits.
I’m not exactly sure how a blessing or curse works on a person.
I do know that the power of God is overwhelming. Christ gave the power to cast out demons to his disciples. I know the blessing of salt is an exorcism prayer. To get rid of curses simply go to a priest and ask for an prayer of exorcism over X and tell him any particular details to better combat evil.
Vatican exorcist Gabriele Amorth covers this in his first book.We have a prayer -very thorough and powerful- that is supposed to life curses. My quesiton is: how does a person become cursed in the first place?
It is true that many mental disorders were considered forms of demonic possesion back then. But we must be careful not to assume that demonic posession therefore does not exist. A large number of the exorcisms performed by Christ really were exorcisms. For example, we see in one when Christ approaches a demon in someone, he recognizes him, and proclaims, “What do you want with us Christ? We know who you are.” Supernatural knowledge is not a result of a mental disorder…There is a lot of reference in the NT on casting out of demons, evil spirits, etc. 2,000 years ago people with disorders such as schizophrenia, epilepsy, bi-polar illness, etc, were seen as being possessed by demons when in reality their behavior was caused by illness.

Any chance we could get Fr. Amorth to lift the curse on the Chicago Cubs?It is true that many mental disorders were considered forms of demonic possesion back then.

In his book, “An exorcist tells his story”, Fr. Gabriel Amorth explain the largely overlooked role that curses play in our day to day lives. He discusses, from a theoretical standpoint, how they are imlemented, and the effects they can have. I’ll say one thing: The book definately taught me to say grace before meals.

What prayer is this? Can you or somebody else post it?We have a prayer -very thorough and powerful- that is supposed to life curses. My quesiton is: how does a person become cursed in the first place?
Of course that is not what is meant by a real cures. I have seen too much to deny the existance of such things and I in fact think it a modern arrogance of ourscience era that we deny such malicious spiritual actions.I don’t believe in curses, there’s really no such thing. (There are bad spirits and demons that can posess people, but that’s a different subject that I won’t explain now!) People usually look at suffering as a “curse” or as “bad”; but things happen for a reason, both good and bad. In the big scheme of life, continual suffering brings us closer to Christ. We just need to bring ourselves to realize that.
