Prayer in Danger, Attacks of Evil Forces

May God rise up and His enemies be scattered, and all His haters flee from His presence. As smoke disappears, may they disappear; as wax melts before the fire, so may demons perish before those who love and glorify God, who brand themselves with the sign of the Cross, and in joy proclaim: Rejoice, our Heavenly Father, who has blessed us with the Most Precious and Life‑giving Lord’s Cross, by which You drive out demons and devils with the power of our crucified Lord Jesus Christ, who descended into hell, overcame the power of the devil, and gave us His Honorable Cross for the expulsion of every adversary.

O Almighty and merciful God, through this—Your Most Precious and Life‑giving Lord’s Cross—help us, by the intercession of the Holy Theotokos, the Mother of God, and all the saints—always, now, ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Protect us, Lord, by the power of Your Honorable and Life‑giving Cross, and with it guard us from all evil. Amen.

Read Psalm 90.
