Ok well basically I am a young man who lives alone, and every time I try to pray the rosary I become paralysed with fear, (mainly due to I say it at night only time I have to)
I hope this fear is not stupid because I have difficulty being able to pray at all, because of this fear of the devil, trying to stop me and these fears are not just imagination,
one night I woke up and heard this noise, so I went out of my bed and the house was shaking from the foundations it was terrifying, so every time I try to pray something happens, bad things now I feel even unable to prey mentally so I am sorry if this sounded a bit stupid or immature but it is a real problem I have.
So obviously I do not want to stop praying, but this is not nice at all.
 
Sorry you’re experiencing this. The enemy has no power over us unless we allow it. Remember that.

Be like a little child. Crawl up into God’s lap and pour out your heart. Nothing formal. Just talk.

Also ASK for the grace and the willingness to pray. Ask for the grace to see God’s presence in people and situations and to know what to do in each situation you face.

Routine really helps. Right when you get up and right before you get into bed in the evening kneel beside your bed and pray. In the morning ask God to help you during the day to do what he wants you to do and in the evening thank him for helping you and ask forgiveness for the times you refused his help or did something wrong.

God loves you so very much. He is delighted to hear from you and will always always be generous if you approach him with an open, honest, and trusting heart.

❤️
 
I know what you’re going through…

First of all, have your house blessed. Bury four blessed St. Benedict medals at the four corners of your property. Second of all, do not stop praying or saying the rosary. Without God, you are no match against the devil, but with Christ by your side, you have everything you need.

God Bless:)
 
Yeah, I with Evania on this one. Call the priest, get the place blessed, and remember that only God has any real power.
 
Thank you everyone for all the help and advice, sometimes I end up just
sleeping outside (live in a rural area)
 
Also, are you able to pray the Rosary if you are somewhere else…say when you are outside or in a church?

Does this only happen when you pray, or also at other times?

No, there has been several unprovoked attacks by the devil even when i am not praying.

Yes pretty much, i have no problem in the church, just really alone in the house.
 
I agree with Evania. Talk to a priest and tell him of your fears…ask him to bless the house and tell you of other things you can do to keep the house free of evil influences. Keep Holy Water in your room and bless yourself before trying to go to sleep. Get a crucifix you can hold. I recall several Saints using these items when they were being tormented.

I can imagine how scared you must be. Please remember that as a Christian, you are under our Lord’s protection. Call on him, our Blessed Mother Mary, and his angels to help you get rid of this presence, calm your fears, and help you to pray.

A prayer for you…

Hail Mary, full of grace.
Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, mother of God,
Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Here is a website you can obtain green scapulars for free.
They are already blessed when you get them.

Put one in each of your rooms, including closets, garage, basement, and any other room.
The devil has a horror of seeing a picture of Mary and avoids blessed items.

One of the benefits of the green scapular is protection from the devil.

“O mother dear, O pray for me, while far from heaven and thee,
I wonder in a fragile bark, O’er life’s tempestous sea.” (hymn)
 
Seek greater opportunities to pray in churches, and get your house blessed by a good traditional priest. You will be in my prayers. God bless you.
