Catholic Holy Water All Christians can do this, especially priests: Obtain pure water and pure salt. The salt which will be added to the water is exorcized and blessed with these words:"O Lord God Jehovah, Creator and Preserver of all things, in whose hand is the vital principle of every living being and the spirit of all flesh, hear we beseech Thee, the prayers of those who believe in Thee. Pour out Thy blessing on this salt and fill it with the benefits of Thy invisible power. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth who is my Lord and savior, Amen."The water itself is then blessed with these words: "I exorcise thee in the name of God the Father almighty, and in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth His Son, our Lord, and in the power of the Holy Ghost, that you may be able to put to flight all the power of the enemy, and be able to root out and supplant that enemy and his apostate angels; through the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will come to judge the living and the dead and the world by fire."Then the salt is added to the water. This may be taken home and to your business place and sprinkled around to dispel evil and bring the blessings of God upon them. It does not wear out or grow stale. last updated: 04/19/2017 orderofsaintpatrick.org/teachings/catholic-holy-water.htm |
