I have been told that demons will flee whena crucifix enters a room, but will evenually come back even thoughthte crucifix is still there.

N the other hand I have ben told that demons will flee when holy water is sprinkled in a room never to return.

Is this true? Where did we get holy water from in the first place?

God’s chick
 
I don’t know if that’s true, but in my experience it is. I had situations where I thought a demon was stalking me after I had repented for mortal sins, so I traced a cross with Holy Water on the frame of my door and above my window and I haven’t committed that sin since.

As to your question on Holy Water, I have a book titled “Why do Catholics do that?” by Kevin Orlin Johnson (a very good read for both Catholics and non-Catholics in my opinion) that has a chapter on Holy Water that states: “…the Lord ordered Moses to prescribe a srrinkler of hyssop for the water and blood used to purify a house infected with leprosy (Lv 14:49-52).” He goes on to say that the Holy Water sprinklers used to have Hyssop in them. Blah,Blah,Blah…Ah, here we go, It says that Solomon had washing basins at the entrances to his temple to cleanse the people physically and spiritually. Then it says how there was a basin at a church in Constantinople that read “Wash not only your hands, but your souls.” That’s a BRIEF history!

Also, if I’ve heard correctly, the Oriental Rites don’t use Holy Water because it’s just more of a Western tradition that didn’t develop in Greece, Egypt, and so on.

Hope this helps!
 
My friend is a priest and he said that demons fear holy water he also told me that Satan and demons fear the rosary and strong devotions to Mary. Personally, If I feel as though a demon is around me I pray a quick prayer to St. Michael the Archangel also… it goes

St. Michael the Archangel defend us in battle,
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil,
May God rebuke him we humbly pray,
and do though oh Prince of the Heavenly Hosts,
by the power of God cast into hell Satan and all the other eveil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruins of souls. Amen.

Hope this helps…
