St Michael is an angel of supreme power and the leader of God's army. In the Catholic writings, he acts as the defender of the Church and the chief opponent of satan. Michael is mentioned three times in the book of Daniel. In the New Testament, Michael leads God's armies against satan's forces in the book of Revelation, where during the war, he defeats satan. In the Epistle of St Jude, Michael is specifically referred to as "the archangel Michael". Let us take the help of St Michael in our daily spiritual battle.
Prayer :
Thank YOU, Almighty God, for the gift of St Michael, the archangel. Holy Michael, the Archangel, defend us in the battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do you, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell satan and all the evil spirits who wander through the world seeking the ruin of souls.
