Some of us can't handle an increase in demonic retaliation. Fr Ripperger acknowledges that. If someone is scared of demons, they perhaps don't have strong confidence in Our Lady's protection. Some struggle to stay in a state of grace. Could be many reasons. But Fr is very adamant in recommending we consult a spiritual director before upping our game with these prayers.

Myself, I say "bring it on Mr Devil. Screw you. I can't make you do anything. I can't stop you from messing with me. But those two standing behind me that I have confidence in can send you packing"

Anyhow, in my opinion Dominion is the best resource I have ever come across to up my game in the practice of Catholicism. It's what I needed.

The attitude displayed above is a great example of why much of Ripperger's teaching ought to be avoided, especially by neophytes.

Point taken, perhaps I should have said I'm just not scared of Satan's games. Fear of God, yes I welcome that gift of the Holy Ghost.

Indeed. I've verbalized such things to mock the Devil when under attack in the past, and let's just say it makes things a lot worse.

The best advice is to ignore him as you would any other temptations and say a prayer like the Pater, Ave, or St. Michael.

What book does she have ? If it's Deliverance Prayers For The Laity, it's all explained in the Introduction. Fr Ripperger isn't promoting exorcism bythe laity.

Yes, that's the book.  Father can explain all he wants but the forms of the prayers themselves are sketchy.  When people directly try to confront demons and "bind" them, I think that's probably playing with a fire.  We appeal to Our Lady and St. Michael in particular and ask them to bind the demons.

Well, all the prayers in my copy invoke either Our Lady, St Michael, the Precious Blood, the Holy Angels, our guardian angel, the Holy Ghost, the Blessed Trinity, Our Lord, or a combination of them to do the binding.

You write "We appeal to Our Lady and St. Michael in particular and ask them to bind the demons." I'm not sure why you don't see that they are asked to do the binding in a number of the prayers.

And why is the Precious Blood, our guardian angel, the Blessed Trinity, and Our Lord not included in yours and others' " all we need " list ?
