Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, through your grace may we have the strength of intercession necessary to combat the evils of this world. Only by your grace can we pray fervently enough to halt the onslaugts of the enemy. Come Lord Jesus fill our hearts with your love and joy so that we may fully sing your praises and through your mercy show your love to all we pass.

Protect all of our Patriarchs and clergy Lord, that no weapons formed against them will stand. Confound the ways of the wicked like this guy,.....
Zarqawi also launched verbal assault at Shia Muslims by calling them �rotten.� White House and Vatican On Al-Qaida Hit-List.... Set your glorius angels about and renew their strength as they fight off the wiles of the devil.

Lord have mercy, Most Holy Theotokos pray for them. Amen

May the seats of Christianity be protected from its enemies; the enemies of God.

Unto you o Theotokos,invincible Champion,
your city, in thanksgiving, ascribes the victory for the deliverance of sufferings,
and having your might unassailable, we cry unto you: Hail o Bride Ever-Virgin!...

from the Akathist Hymn, an all night standing vigil in Constantinople that invoked and received the protection of our Lady from enemy attack.

OOPS...correction:

Unto you oh Theotokos, invinciple champion,
your city, in thanksgiving, ascribes the victory for the deliverance from sufferings,
and having your might unassailable, free us from all dangers, so that we may cry out unto you:
HAIL OH BRIDE EVER-VIRGIN!
