Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for.

One of Jesus' signature works during his life on earth was the casting out of demons.

He went about for three years casting out demons and empowered the apostles to do the same thing.

But a lot of time Jesus didn't just cast out demons,

he told them to shut up.

And what's interesting is he always tells them to be

silent when they are saying the truth about him. When a demon says, I know who you are, the holy one of God, immediately

Jesus says, silence, come out of him.

And Mark's gospel actually says that Jesus would not allow the demons to speak

because they knew him.

Now, why would Jesus not allow the demons to speak the truth about him? It makes sense that he would stop them from lying,

but why would he stop them from saying the truth? The answer is that the truth, taken out of context is a very

powerful weapon in the hands of demons and it's a weapon we have to be

on our guard against.

Our Father who are it in heaven, hallow would be your name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou among women.

Blessed is a fruit of thy womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us and earns now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women,
