"Please,
let us not do business with the devil! He seeks to return
home
to take possession of us ... Do not relativize; be
vigilant!
And always be with
Jesus!" - Pope
Francis
"Worship is a spiritual
weapon. When we worship
God, we enter into His presence in a powerful way. Because demons tremble at His
presence, they are reluctant to follow us
there.
No doubt the Devil is
busy tempting us and
trying to distract us even when we attend Mass. But if we give ourselves wholly
to participating in the Mass, he has little room to operate. In fact,
true worship focuses our attention on God: praising Him for who He is and thanking Him for what He has done. When our minds and hearts are centered on God, the Enemy’s provocations and enticements lose their power. Frequent Mass attendance, then, is an effective weapon of our warfare."
