Spiritual Warfare Prayers According To Your State in Life

January 6, 2025

QUESTION? / COMMENT!

I am a lebanese living in lebanon. I've been praying the auxilium christianorum for 3 days now and I read that it is for lay persons. I read the answer you gave for a single woman but I am married and my husband is not into the faith, he is a christian with normal devotions. I feel at peace after praying these prayers specially that we have a cross in our little family and I felt I need these prayers for protection for my kids who are in very critical stage. My question is, can I continue praying those prayers or what prayers should I pray?

The prayers in Fr Rippergers book are written for the Men to lead them, the wife can accompany. A wife cannot do those prayers without the permission of her Priest and without the permission of her husband. The prayers are Patriarchal prayers, meant to be prayed by the head of house or led by the head of house. If a woman usurps his authority and prays these prayers on her own without her husband’s permission she will be retaliated against. 

You can pray for your husband and children prayers of petition like the Divine Mercy, the Holy Rosary, Holy Hours in Adoration, fast on Wednesdays and Fridays and offer the Holy Mass for her conversion. Those are the appropriate prayers for a mother to pray for the family, you will NEVER see a verse in Scripture of a mother praying binding prayers, the Bible calls these prayers 'imprecatory prayers' and they are always prayed by men. If you want to add spiritual warfare prayers to your daily life I would include either the "Holy Face of Jesus chaplet" or "St Michael the Archangel chaplet." Either of these two chaplets are very powerful against fallen angels and to keep your family protected. Any Catholic can pray those chaplets.
