I have a friend who is being plagued with diabolical suggestions. This occurs usually when praying. It’s been going on for months now. They are really horrible thoughts. He has seen a very orthodox priest and has been told that it is diabolical suggestion. But pray as hard as he can he can’t kick these demons out. He frequents the sacraments, prays to our Lady, and does everything he can to combat it. But just can’t kick it. Could you imagine how it would feel when you are plagued a few hrs every day for mths with the devil trying to get you to consent to being possessed. He is really suffering. Please pray for him.
And does anyone have advice for him?
I am leaving my computer for today so please don’t be disappointed if I don’t respond to any advice or questions straight away.
 
Many things might help. One is, try reading prayers from a prayer book, very slowly and deliberately, and thinking about each word.

If anything like heavy metal rock music is in his life, then put an end to that.

Get a prayer card with the image of Christ crucified and meditate on it in prayer.
 
Having a Spiritual director can help. Keeping in mind who you are in Christ is important, knowing that through faith in Jesus we are more powerful than all the demons. Asking God the Father through His Son Jesus by the working of the Holy Spirit to give you Wisdom. Saying a prayer of binding such as " I bind you foul spirit in the Name of Jesus and cast you into the outer darkness bound where you must remain bound until the end of the world and then be judged by Jesus and all His Holy Angels and Saints". This binding of a demon may seem failed sometimes when another demon will take the place of the one bound, just to make you think your prayer was not answered. If you are attacked again just presist and bind the next demon. How is it that one can chase a thousand and two can chase ten thousand? God Bless
 
Your friend needs to buy a Saint Michael Prayer card and pray to saint Michael once a day. He needs faith in Jesus. That the holy trinity needs to help him with this. When he gets these feelings, if he needs to stop praying for a moment and put all thoughts out of his mind.

Sometimes I get distracted in church by young girls in tight jeans and blouses. I think it happens to the best of us and the Diobolical thoughts can even come from people like Bush or disturbed people in Secret fraternities or Satan.
 
Everything I read suggests a prayer to saint Michael and faith In Jesus. There is a nice little prayer card with Saint Michael on it. I think everyone should keep one.
 
if the influences on your friend’s prayer life are truly diabolical in origin, referral and consultation with the exorcist of the diocese is indicated. If they are distractions from other sources, he needs a spiritual director. It goes without saying he is receiving the sacraments regularly, especially frequent confession. If the thoughts are from his own imagination, counselling may help.
 
Thanks for your (name removed by moderator)ut. I will let him know what you advise.
 
  1. Find out influences he may be messing with…ie…certain types of Heavy(death metal)… card games… etc… is anyone in his home into occult stuff? That could have an effect as well…maybe hes the only family member who prays…the devil could be angry
  2. St Michael Prayer
  3. Get a St Benedict Jubilee medal, have it blessed
  4. Miraculous Medal…have it blessed.
