Spirit of Despair | Catholic Metal Prayer of Deliverance

Описание: “By despair, man ceases to hope for his personal salvation from God, for help in attaining it or for the forgiveness of his sins. Despair is contrary to God’s goodness, to his justice — for the Lord is faithful to his promises — and to his mercy.” (CCC 2091)

In other words, despair isn’t just a feeling. It’s a sin against the theological virtue of Hope. Like pride or envy, it erodes faith from the inside. Remembering that pulls me back when I start to spiral.

That’s why I lean on prayers of hope and deliverance. One in particular is the Latin Binding Prayer, from Deliverance Prayers: For Use by the Laity by Fr. Chad Ripperger, PhD. The Church is clear that solemn exorcisms are reserved for priests appointed by the bishop — but laypeople can pray prayers of deliverance like this for themselves and their families.

It’s a way of invoking Christ’s authority for personal defense, but not a substitute for the sacraments or the Rite of Exorcism.

I’ve included both English and Latin versions. Latin is the Church’s traditional language, and exorcists often say it carries particular weight. Plus, let’s be honest: it’s incredibly metal when screamed.

==============

Spirit of despair,
I bind you in the name of Jesus,
By the power of the Holy Cross,
By the power of the most Precious Blood
Of our Lord Jesus Christ,
And by the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
Saint Michael the Archangel,
The Blessed Apostles Peter and Paul,
And all of the Saints,
I command you to leave me
And go to the foot of the Holy Cross
To receive your sentence.
In the name of the Father,
And of the Son,
And of the Holy Spirit,
Amen.

Spiritus desperationis,
ego te ligō in nōmine Jesu,
potestate Crucis sancti,
potestate pretiosissimi Sanguinis Domini nostri Jesu Christi,
et per intercessione Beatissimae Mariae Virginis,
Sancti Michaēlis Archangeli,
beatorum Apostolorum Petri et Pauli,
et omnium Sanctorum,
et tibi impero recēdere,
spiritus desperationis,
et īre ad pedem Crucis sancti,
sententiam tuam recipere.
In nōmine Patris, et Fīlii, et Spīritūs Sancti.
