The Devil's fear

Mary, according from the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church is the mother of God (Theotokos). She is known for her humility and obedience. Aside from being the mother of God, she is also the Queen of Heaven and earth. Basing from the tradition and from the ancestors of Jesus like Solomon who had a queen mother, therefore Jesus who is a King should also have a Queen mother who will obviously be Mary. Because of Mary's assumption she had the power and authority in Heaven and on earth.

It is said that the devil hates Mary so much; he is afraid and embarrassed of her. For the devil fell because of his pride and disobedience, so Mary contradicts it with humility and obedience to God. Mary is the one who will crush his head: “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.” (Genesis 3:15) The devil also confessed it during an exorcism while the exorcist ties a rosary around the demoniac's neck that he hates her so much and asks the exorcist to remove those beads. We should remember that Mary is a powerful intercessor. Anything that she asks from her Son, Jesus, will be granted by Him. For He loves his mother so much that not a single request will he rejects.

The rosary is also a great sacramental used against the evil spirits. It is also used by exorcists during Deliverance sessions and solemn Exorcism. Rosary is not merely a sacramental but a weapon against the devil.

Heavenly Prince

Saint Michael the Archangel is known as the prince of the Heavenly host. Though he belongs to the 8th rank in the hierarchy of Angels, he was appointed by God as the prince of Heaven. Saint Michael is known for casting out Satan into hell. The intercession of this prince is so powerful and exorcists during an exorcism always invoke his name. He is invoke when there are paranormal disturbances happening and of course when encountering evil spirits

As long as we live in this world, we are on the battlefield. Our enemies are obviously far stronger than we are; for we are mere human beings with natural powers but they have preternatural powers. However, we have nothing be feared, for we have our Heavenly allies who are always there to guide and help us in this battle against evil. They have supernatural powers which are the highest level of power. Armies of Angels are there to help us led by this great prince, Saint Michael. They would never allow us to get hurt by the devil and his dominions if we would just turn to them and ask for help.

Indeed we are on the battlefield and therefore we should always carry the armor of light. We should always think that we are God's humble servant and knight. A knight will do everything to protect his King and so must we. We should remember that God is always there in our battle against the wicked and He needs us to trust him. "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." (Deuteronomy 31:6)

Reality of demons

Demons are the creatures that have evil intentions. They are believed as the causes for destruction and bad lucks in our day to day life. Some would say that they had a vision of one of this entities but what is the reality about the demons?

According to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, demons are the fallen Angels. They are those who are expelled from the kingdom of God (Heaven) due to their pride. Demons indeed are the cause of the destruction in this world and they are the one who tempts us to fall into sin. Demons are objectively evil but subjectively good, for they were created by God and that goodness will never fade. Consider the following analogy an iron gets rust due to moisture and oxidation, however rust cannot exist without the iron. The same as good to evil, evil wouldn't exist without the presence of the good. If we would consider demons as subjectively and absolutely evil, then we are trying to oppose God's declaration of goodness to all of His creations.

Those demons also have their leader whom the Bible calls as the devil which is Satan. The devil was mentioned in many books in the sacred scriptures and he is defined as the deceiver. An exorcist once said, "The devil can deceive even the wisest mind. Though the devil and the demons are subjectively good, let us not consider them as our allies for they have evil objectives and therefore we should consider them as our enemies. The devil due to their disobedience can't and will never be back into the kingdom of God.

Therefore we should always ask the guidance of God in our lives so that we may not be deceived and fall into the snares of the devil. Remember that we have our heavenly allies who are always there to help us especially to Mare mother of God.
