How to Spot the Devil (& Kick Him Out) | LITTLE BY LITTLE | Fr Columba Jordan CFR

[@Strive1974]

Little by little, the Rosary is making me more able to resist temptation. God have mercy

[@ciscornBIG]

Keep going! We can do this and I will keep praying the Rosary too.

[@rebelglamourjunkiemakeupar3337]

Amen to that!🙏🙌🙌

[@ciscornBIG]

@darrellperez1029 It is one of the most beautiful emotions I have ever been gifted. Some times when I think of her or read something tender and loving about her, I weep. You're right.

[@FrancisMary-u3s]

Have you ever tried praying all 20 mysteries in a day? It’s difficult, but Jesus says we must carry our cross, and that certainly is a cross (even praying 1 rosary is a cross). I’ve been praying 4 Rosaries everyday for a while now, and have noticed that I’m more able to recognize potential sinful situations, and have been filled with the Holy Spirit to avoid sin. I highly recommend it to anyone struggling with mortal or even venial sin. I do recommend working your way up to it though since it can be a lot to handle. I like to break it up throughout the day by praying a Rosary every 3 or 4 hours. God bless you and Our Lady keep you. Ave Maria! Vivo Christo Rey!!

[@Hayes2703]

I found Our Lady’s Mantle 46 day Novena, (Book) a great place to start the habit of prayer and notice the POWER of prayer in my life.

[@TruthWillprevail13]

Please pray for me this Thanksgiving, Faith is all I have left. These past three years have been difficult on me. Jesus give me guidance please. I don’t know how much longer I can hold on. I’m so tired of struggling every month to get by. As a single mom things are hard on me both of my sons are autistic and I’m constantly struggling to provide the basic necessities for them I’m so ashamed. I suffered an heart attack two years ago and still battling lupus I’m so overwhelmed. Give me strength Lord as I constantly struggle to pay bills and constantly struggle to buy groceries for my children. BUT no matter what I KEEP FAITH. Even though the devil wants me to give up. Jesus please take the fear from me. Please save me and my children from this demonic world.

[@adriantindall2629]

I'm thinking of you lass. I pray that the Lord will provide you support you need. Your doing the best you can....and your best is fantastic!😊

[@sheiladumigan451]

🙏🙏🙏

[@annwatson2196]

Please hang on!!! I will pray for you❤

[@annarowe8459]

You’re doing an amazing job, one day / moment / issue at a time🙏✝️💟

[@ABB14-11]

Hello, I’ve read a comment similar to yours under this channel and wonder if you are the same person. Please don’t lose hope, I wish we could do more but I believe prayers are powerful too. In the meantime, you shouldn’t go through this alone is there a way you can ask your friends and family for help, are there organizations that provide assistance, what about the local parish? Your being very strong, do NOT be ashamed, God will provide.

[@sybildale5242]

Fathers, I love listening to you, you make the spiritual life feel attainable to a sinner like me

[@sterlingteall3462]

I needed this message. Demons are hard to combat, especially when they play on already existing bad habits, like procrastination and laziness.

[@franciscogerardohernandezR1979]

You have hit a nail, procrastination could be in part a demonic influence acting based on what we fear.

[@userPs91victory]

Relentless, stubbornness in calling out the name of Jesus, prayer to His Precious Blood 🩸, prayers to the Blessed Mother and the Archangel Michael obstinately. Try it!!! Frankincense fragrance is in addition great

[@mariecait]

What about rest and reflection in order to heal? How will we heal if we always are productive? I’m bed ridden and pray rosary all day long. I am disabled. I wish I wasn’t but I used my life for prayer and helping others.

[@thomasrhinehart6084]

@mariecait Your prayers are especially important, each according to their abilities, the body has many parts and functions, and The Holy Church needs your prayers still despite what may appear to be an Impediment....someday your reward will be a shining perfect body, this is a promise.. ...never stop praying Our Blessed Mother and Lord Jesus Love you beyond all understanding ❤️

[@grandchatdaddy]

​@@mariecait Things always seem to work out for us who pray.. Every prayer keeps the evil away

[@johnstrae7392]

Funny how almost every time I pray about something either you guys, Fr. Mike, Matt Fradd or the likes releases a new video that is relevant to exactly what I prayed about. Praise the Lord and God bless you all!

[@ABB14-11]

Happens to me really often too. Praise God!

[@deniseparrott9678]

I prayed for a spiritual advisor, and there was Fr Columba, every time I pray about something he answers it!

[@geo.ies93]

Exactly!!!

[@jhj6636]

Yes!

[@sandradoherty9358]

Read your comments above ....do you think that could be the Holy Spirit ??? Of course it is 😂❤. Fr Columba is Full of the HOLY SPIRIT. God Bless you All. Keep going 🎉 AMEN

[@heathsavage4852]

The enemy cannot create, but only destroy. So being vigilant is imperative. The enemy will try to destroy all the good in us.

[@feliciageorgeson3607]

I was conquered in Heaven, With Earth I was left. If I can not create, I destroy what the Holy creates. In original language it rimes.

[@mommy_sharon]

The devil will come in as intrusive thoughts.

[@John-xv6iz]

1. Pray the rosary daily 2. Read the Gospel daily 3. Show love to even the stranger in the street with a smile 4. Attend confession once a week 5. Receive communion And we cannot go wrong (and try to go to Adoration!).

[@FrancisMary-u3s]

Amen. Also try to pray the whole rosary (4 rosaries a day, one for each set of mysteries). It’s a lot but it’s life changing!!

[@rebeccamareewalkersings]

Actually - you can be doing all This and still go wrong. That’s the entire point of this video….

[@kt5137]

This VIDEO!! I became Catholic from a pagan background. I am white martyred. My family does not like me and my Catholicism. And they are pagan too. I had no idea how to fight the devil or what evil was attacking me and how to fight it. I had no clue! Thank you! I am crying in relief. God has been telling me but i just had no idea how to listen and praise in answer. I do now. I feel so dumb and thankful!! This means everything. And i need to get away from family. I need to let them go…thank you. Freedom feels better than sorrow.

[@etcwhatever]

Praying the Rosary for people is powerful. I see conversions around me and in my family. Its more efficient then to discuss around religion. Never give up on them. They will convert. 🙏

[@thomasrhinehart6084]

Your martyrdom does not go unnoticed, our blessed mother loves you and your pagen family too! In a similar fashion we and others suffer white martyrdom in these days of godlessness, however our brother Christ has promised us the victory....prise to His Holy Name, and I wish for fortitude and the salvation of your family ❤

[@johnsposato5632]

Don't discard your family, but pray for them. You may have to keep some distance until you are strong in the faith , but keep praying for them and make sacrifices for their conversion. And, as someone has already said, pray the Rosary, for yourself and for them. God bless you, my friend.

[@adrianaansaldi9248]

Pray for them too!! As you go away, or not.

[@TuanAnhTPBQ]

Don’t let the devil fool you. Don’t ever feel ashamed. You are more heroic than many people I know. You are building up your treasure in Heaven. I’m praying for you and your children. May God bless you and our Lady keep you and your family.

[@JoBanks]

I love this - this is so helpful. I've recently returned to my faith after 40 years, and your explanation about 'Godly' thoughts is a game-changer for me! Bless you. Thank you, Father.

[@Sam-fh3pw]

The Rosary is the battering ram (Our Lady's words!). Pray the Rosary as much as you can, and Satan's fortress will be destroyed!

[@ShastaDaisy14]

Very interesting thanks for sharing! I just had this happen last Sunday. It was snowy and I have an anxiety driving in it since having my children. Fully capable driving conditions but that fear is something else. The conversation in my head went, "ehh, do we go to church? I really don't want to drive. No. Yes. No. Yes". Then another thought popped in... I still have to drive my children to school in the snow now and I'm not going to get over this fear unless I face it. So, off to church we went 😊. I can see now if I wasn't invested in daily prayer, old me would of brushed it off and not went. New me was having that internal battle that hit to the core. That strong gut feeling like you need to go. This video makes alot of sense.

[@JJ-qm1si]

Fr Columba, this was brilliant. A “tiny resentment” against someone will suddenly insert itself into my thinking, and over a the next few days it will evolve into a major resentment/annoyance/anger against that person and all their friends! It occupies all of my mental space, keeps me from praying, and I despair because I can’t seem to pray it away! If I’d only recognized it at the beginning as a lie…as cuckoo stuff…and not nurtured it, I wouldn’t have this enormous resentment weighing me down and feel totally disconnected from The Father! Father, you really hit the nail on the head for me today. Now I can identify what’s happening when I have new negative thoughts that make absolutely no sense in the scheme of things. I can throw them out and not feed it. Thank you!!

[@vgraham580]

I struggle a lot with believing the lies in my head from the Enemy due to past trauma.

[@Mementomorichild]

Was my phone broadcasting my confession an hour ago? 🤔🙃 Now I understand. Thank you so much! Here in America. It's Thanksgiving Day and I am so grateful for you

[@PadraigTomas]

The levity is grand, but do leave the phone elsewhere during confession or use a Faraday bag. The seal of confession is holy and must be guarded.

[@johnv.6136]

Please continue to provide pro-tips on not just spotting the lies and kicking them out like the bad egg... but also spotting the destructive feelings, thoughts that maybe unfocusing people on what we need to do for ourselves and our kids perhaps. Or motivation to stay on point and be focused. This would be helpful for me. Please

[@Sil7531]

It's like going to the doctor to have a diet, and then thinking that if the dottor follows it, you get thinner😅 we need to do our work🙏thank you

[@joytotheworld9109]

Brilliant analogy of the Cuckoo eggs! Thank you, God love you!

[@SAlex03]

So very grateful Father mentioned that it is hard work! I needed to hear that. Thank you!

[@edinnm8212]

Thank you, Father Columba. I needed this. I will work on getting rid of Satan's lies and negative thoughts with God's grace. Thanks again and God Bless!

[@cozyhomemakingvibes]

May God bless you, Father.🙏🏻🩵🤍♥️

[@otherworlder1]

💯. I am 💯 convinced I faced one of the devil’s demons with my narcissistic abuser. I finally saw him as the demon he was. I faced the devil and told him not today! God be praised. Heavenly mother be praised.

[@liberato6802]

Lord unto thy hands we commend our spirit. Amen 🙏🙏🙏

[@peterhickey1020]

Thank you Fr. Columba. You are in my prayers every day 🙏.

[@claredesrosiers]

Awesome video! Really appreciated the insights on how to move forward!

[@ctmcatholic]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Clairsmith123]

Thank you for this!!! The End was SOOO unexpected !😂

[@marleyb6506]

An excellent message Fr, one I needed to hear badly 🙏🙏

[@evelyncarrasquillo2282]

Wonderful message for me at just the right time. Will jump on it like a frog on a lily pad! Thank you Fr. Columba!

[@janeyount8412]

Father Columba is delightfully wise.

[@EliB567a]

It’s true - all behaviour starts with thoughts - Jesus said ‘Guard your thoughts’. Cause they’re either going One way or the other ….

[@susanna2490]

This was very needed . Thank you so much

[@ctmcatholic]

You are so welcome

[@MariaJimenez-ox5ed]

Every video I’ve watch by Fr Columba, has been pure gold. His speaks through him ❤️ praise be to God

[@ctmcatholic]

Thanks for watching

[@noracoyle4988]

I needed to hear this, believing Satan's lies caused me much suffering. Thank you so much for the video, I'm going to put it on repeat❤️ Have a great day.

[@americathebeautiful9613]

I am not catholic but listen to a lot of catholic podcasts and what not and have really enjoyed and felt encouraged and enlightened ❤ what is a good resource to start praying the rosary?

[@ElizabethKautzmann]

Most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ save our young people in crisis & save the whole world 🙏🏼✝️❤️

[@MonicaBermea-d8d]

You are right padre. I have to be examining myself constantly. Lord have mercy

[@markgriffiths5289]

Thank you 😊 Defeat the enemy at the gates, don’t let him in, don’t even entertain these thoughts. It’s easier to deal with it at the beginning, nip it in the bud. Amen 🙏

[@jennilooliver5302]

I am grateful to have found your video. I've heard about strongholds but it never sunk in until now because I realize I am dealing with one now. On top of that it's been harder and harder to keep my prayer time lately. Your teaching and that of another priest, is showing me the way to address the issue. Earlier the stronghold became weaker and weaker, but it's hard to get rid of the last of it. I wasn't doing the work you spoke of nor recognize the lies. I'll get to work with the Lord's help. Thank you.

[@Rose-gn1tt]

Beautifully said, thank you!

[@bruposa]

Thank you so much, Father. God bless. He might help us to struggle

[@ctmcatholic]

You are very welcome

[@HeReignsJohn3-16]

I had this last night I felt tired and thought I won’t go to 6pm mass and get an early night but remembered that I had committed to this mass and how much this helps me be in truth and so I thought I can get in my car and drive there I don’t have to look perfect (I looked awful as had 3 hours sleep the night before because I felt my sleep was being disturbed by the enemy) Mass was wonderful and last night I slept peacefully. Thank you for talking about this spiritual attack is real

[@geo.ies93]

Praise God for holy people on youtube! 🙏🏻

[@anthonyw2931]

the devil has been having a field day with me, lately. But by God's grace, I have recognized it. These videos have been immensely beneficial. One of the lies he tells me is looking at others as sinners, apathetic and thinking I'm a better Christian than my neighbor. Sigh...

[@augustvonmacksen2526]

God bless you, Father.

[@katkat2340]

Empower us in Jesus

[@SAlxdr]

It is so very helpful that Fr. Columba shares his practices and how he tackles challenges, like wrong thinking. It’s so empowering and encouraging. Thank you ❤

I need to work on this. Thank you, Father, for telling me how. ❤

[@adventurebecca]

AMAZING! I LOVE THIS VIDEO! I'm 24 trying to grow in faith and I think I've been working around the edges of this one for a while now but wow I wish I found this video sooner! Thanks, Fr, for shaping this so well and the encouragement to do 'the work' - it's definitely worth it and I think will really help me to get out of my own ruts in the future with thoughts that are not my own. Thank you so much and God bless!

[@grandmasgarden6402]

[@pibly7784]

Wow. You put the kicking out of definite seed of outside influences .

[@jimhiserman3612]

Thank you so much for this message as I seem to find my prayers, even at Mass, seem to be side tracked to thoughts that distract me and sidetrack my thoughts. I do sense these thoughts are getting in the way of my prayers, especially the prayers of the Canon of the Mass. This video has given me some weapons to use against these distracting thoughts.

[@richvestal767]

Also remember that part of the work of the devils is as much keeping things out of our minds and consciousness as it is putting stuff in.

[@frankreading5110]

THANKYOU FR COLUMBA. GOD BLESS YOU FOR ALL YOU DO xx

[@chocolatechips1776]

This was so timely! Thank you, Father, and thanks be to GOD!! God bless you always!

[@paulthompson4332]

I love your approach, you make it so easy to connect with God's truth So many forget, or just don't realize that we, mankind, are facing an unseen, spiritual battle for the souls of man. Satan attacks the believers in an attempt to weaken their witness for Christ to the lost souls without Christ. I have allowed, too often ,for sin, doubt, and spiritual laziness to control my life for Christ, and I thank the Holy Spirit for always drawing me back into the arms of my Heavenly Father through the grace of Christ Praise Jesus

[@joanneharrison3531]

How's he doing that?

[@lolafiiona7014]

Father father. You have no idea how strong the holy spirit is in this one. I just had a massive confession giving up old lies I believed about myself and then went to a young adults group where we spoke about St Ignatius of Loyola. I came home to watch videos of him and a different video came up of yours I hit the next button accidentally to this one 😅😅😅😅😅 praise Jesus 🙏 thank you for your channel
