# Punishing Prayer Lord Jesus Christ, I ask Thee that from now and until I fall asleep, while I sleep and during my dreams, that if any evil spirit tries to affect me that Thou wouldst punish him by making him focus on the thing that causes the most pain during the entire time he tries to affect me and for ten minutes more. I also ask Thee to not allow him to retaliate. *The above prayer may be modified for any form of temptation or diabolic attack. --- Source: Ripperger, Chad. *Deliverance Prayers for Use by the Laity*.
