Deliverance Prayers: For Use by the Laity by Father Chad Ripperger
“The Church, in her wisdom and experience, has always known that authority is one of the primary requisites tn order drive a demon out. Since diabolic influence occurs in our bodies (and not in our souls), the laity may use prayers as long as they are not forbidden by the Church and which, by their nature, do not imply an authority one does not have.
It is for this reason that this book has been put together, viz. to provide the laity with prayers that they can use licitly and without retaliation …
For this reason, if the laity always remain within the confines of the authority that God has given to them by the natural law, such as commanding the demons to leave their own bodies or those over whom they have authority by the natural law (such as their children or wife, etc.), then they will experience little to no retaliation, as a general rule.”
3) The Liber Christo Method: A Field Manual for Spiritual Combat

Here you will learn spiritual “guerrilla warfare” tactics based on real experience in modern spiritual combat …
