"Be silent, and come out of him!"

And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, "What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God." But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be silent, and come out of him!" (Mark 1:23-25)

Reflection
How do you get rid of negative forces that seem to disturb your peace?

The mighty Name of Jesus, the Holy One of God can silence them and flush them out wherever they are!

Prayer
Lord Jesus, you are the Holy One of God! In your mighty and powerful Name, I cast out all negative forces and unclean spirits that may have cling to me and to all my family, friends, and relatives, totally replacing them with your love and peace. Completely shield us and protect us from all forms of evil so that we may live in the fullness of your mercy and grace. In you, my joy is always full and complete.
