For my Catholic Brothers & Sisters and even other Christian here what helps me
What has been helping me is praying the Rosary to ask and help rebuke temptations, praying the Saint Benedict medal Prayer, Saint Micheal the Archangel prayer and lastly the Jesus Prayer. These help me here are some of them below. Saint Benedict “The Holy Cross be my light, May the dragon never be my guide. Get away, Satan!” Never tempt me with your vanities! What you offer me is evil, Drink the poison yourself!” Saint Micheal Prayer St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen. Lastly the Jesus Prayer, I pray this in my head almost all of the time to help fight temptations or other thoughts. Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner. Hope these help!!!
As another practicing Catholic, thanks for sharing. I have a personal struggle, i recognize, that i don’t pray many prayers when I’m actively struggling. It’s all practical thoughts, i guess willpower. I’m just afraid of turning our Lord’s prayers into superstitions or talismans.
