The Rosary power

[UnityofTrinity]

Imagine a scenario when a person unexpectedly possessed in a place without any presence or access of clergy available(I don’t know if this is possible or not), is it possible that a Catholic can expel the demon or temporarily subdue it with the Rosary?

Dear friend. The power of The Rosary is a strong as Your faith. It is important to pray with The Rosary every day,but it is not a “lucky charm”. What comes to demons,You need to talk with Your priest,I can’t help You on this Forum,but I will pray for You. God bless.

You can’t get “unexpectedly possessed.” It has to be willful.

There are some terrible temptations that can make a sudden appearance. The Rosary is wonderful, but a quick Sign of the Cross, especially with holy water, if close by, is instant help. I invoke St. Michael the Archangel to drive the devil out, as he’s done in the past. At that point, a prayerful recitation of the Rosary is calming.

Certainly, it can be. With faith, hope, and love of God.

Just something I’ve been thinking, maybe because of those exorcist movies. But no, I;m just asking for such scenerio. But someone said demon can’t “unexpectedly” possess someone, what does it mean? Do demons have a frequent target? Do they usually target Catholics? Is that why we see reports of Demonic possession in Catholic countries more than non Catholic countries?

Demons can possess a person ‘unexpectedly’.

But generally there is a reason, and the reason is sin. And not necessarily, though it normally is, the sin of the individual possessed. The sins of others with authority over that person, for example, parents, can cause problems for the children.

All Catholics are tempted by demons, this is their ordinary activity. They tempt through enticing emotions and suggestions and the imagination. Possession is more extraordinary.

If you look at the fellow who shot some folks recently, he displays many of the characteristics of someone who has severe problems with demons.

So you’ll see demonization clearly in people involved in the occult, the worst mortal sins, etc.

But all Catholics who make progress in holiness will have to put up a tough fight, because this is where demons have the most work to do in battle. All progress in holiness is opposed by the devils.

There are different kinds of demonic possession. It can be from demonic obsession to the extreme demonic possession. But one has to be inviting the devil to be possessed. There could also be a curse placed unsuspectingly that one may experience some demonic instances. Some forms of inviting obsession/possession-participation in devil worship, the dabling in the occult like quija boards, etc.

It had been noted through history that St.Dominic was able to successfully expel and exorcise 1,000 demons in one whole town with the power of the Rosary. It was also written somewhere that the Devil himself fear of the Virgin Mary probably more than anything or anyone else not because she’s more powerful or because she’s superior than anyone else, but because of her humility and her perfection that bring the Devil to shame.
