In his introduction to this special collection of prayers, Bishop Julian Porteous of Sydney (more recently Archbishop of Hobart, Tasmania) shows that all sins give the devil a chance and although he is "a defeated enemy, there are many ways in which he can gain a damaging foothold in people's lives."

This booklet draws on the Church's vast treasury, bringing together prayers for deliverance, Saint Patrick's Breastplate, the prayers of Pope Leo XIII, and many others. It offers a real spiritual weapon for the battles we are all called to fight.
