- Satan's power is more limited than we might think. If we are steadfast, if we are resolved to follow God, there's not really much the Enemy can do. St Mother Teresa and St Thomas Aquinas have some things to say on this, as does our very own Fr Columba.

It is worth losing everything for God. He’s got a better plan.
My disability disposes me to sainthood. I'm weak, I know Im weak, and God is strong in me through my weakness. I wish for everyone to embrace their weakness. Satan hates it when we accept God's love through our weakness.
God is good!
Great video!
Hi, what do you mean it disposes you to sainthood?
Having a disability doesn't make someone a saint, but through weakness we all can access our life in Christ. We all have disabilities some are more obvious to the world.
@alex_jermaine
I have someone in my family who is making my life hell. Please God, show me the way through this torturous path because I can't take it anymore
Can you go your way ?
Praying for you
Pray to choose to love them, then pray to love them, then love them, and pray for good things for them.
Your life and this relationship the enemy has made into bitterness and his victory, with God's help and mercy will turn into Satan's downfall and all glory to God
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.
Just close your eyes and say “Jesus, I don’t have faith in you, please help me believe” Jesus loves you, turn to Him before it is too late. He loves you so much that He died for you. I’m praying for you❤️🙏
I don't know your situation, but I want to encourage you. Distancing yourself from the person, letting go of trying to please the person, and asking God's help through it all may help. 🙏
I am walking with my cross whether I want to or not. So I tell God to please help me deny myself. By often meditating on Jesus suffering and death, my sufferings haven’t lessened, yet my cross has become very, very small next to the Cross of Jesus. And He actually chose to do His Father’s Will for me and all mankind. I cannot relate to that Love. But I know I want to be where He and our Father and the Holy Spirit are. Like he said I definitely need God’s help to attain this glory, for I surely don’t deserve Heaven. But I have to get there because that is where the Holy Trinity is. (I know God is everywhere, but that is their ultimate and glorious residence.). I pray for all others struggling because of their suffering; please hold on with me. Can’t we all help each other and even those who don’t care or believe? All for the glory of God.
Advertisements! What a wonderful way to describe temptation!
So amazingly clever!
St. Evagrios describes temptation as demons presenting images of real things from a false view. Like lust for example. A demon may give you a vision of a beautiful person but instead of recognizing the truth in that beauty, the demon tells you to grasp at it and take it
I thought the same thing!!
Pray that my dad will be healed completely and will get heaven post this world . Also pray taht both my parents will be United
Pray the rosary for your enemies and those who persecute you and forgive them and ask God to help deal with them, because without God we can do nothing so ask him to help you.
Matthew 7:7
Seek and you will find,Ask and it will be given to you,Knock and the door will be opened.
I am a child of my Father in heaven. I belong to Him, & I pray for His grace to continue.
*Thank you, Fr.
*Jesus, I trust in You*
thank you father bless you divine mercy i trust in you take care of everything protect us all from the evil one in our weakness our lord god is mighty and strong evil one has no power over heaven mighty powerful angles take care of us all
Jesus Christ of Nazareth knows it’s not in you. Only through Him can we accomplish anything.
Thank you Father, that was amazing ☺😊
You're right about the attacks through despair, Father. I have also discovered that dwelling on intense disappointment in oneself comes dangerously close to vanity - the feeling that "I should be more than this" leads us away from humility. Great stuff, Father. Thank you.
The distraction reasoning is right. Anything but God. We see it everywhere. Let us pray🌷
Praise the Lord
I needed to see this today, thank you ☺️
I wouldn’t necessarily call myself a Christian. It’s been such a battle the last few years, everything. But there’s something calling me back recently to learn more about Christ. Against my egotistical, rational, materialistic defaults, something is shining through and I hope so deeply that I find a way to believe.
Anyway, I don’t know why I felt compelled to share that. But peace everyone, wishing you all the best ❤
Pleased to be fighting this battle with you Fr Columba
St. Theresa of Avila, I believe, talks about determined determination. It seems to be the theological virtue of hope strenthened by the gift of fortitude. May we all receive this grace, co-operate with it and become great Saints through the Mercy of God! May Our Lady obtain for us this grace! Prayers for all those who are suffering in any way. Please say a pray for me, I got covid and it has really knocked me down.
❤❤❤Praying for your recovery 🙏
Prayers for your healing
In Jesus name I pray for your healing may God hands of healing touch you body ,mind ,❤
Determined dermination. I love this, thanks! Praise the Lord
I hope & pray you feel better 👼 Quercetin & Vitamin D are very helpful immune boosters & help fight against viruses. God Bless ✝️💗🙏
Yes , thats what I need to hear
i m the only one in my family to be in love with
JESUS CHRIST
❤ 😇🙏
That was AWESOME.
A resolute soul.
🩵🤍♥️❤️🔥
🙏🙏🙏 prayers that the Holy Spirit shines your path & shows you the hand of God reaching for you & your family
This video cleared up a whole lot of desolation and confusion Fr. Columba. Thank you for what you do :)
You're so welcome!
Brilliantly said, Father! Never despair, God’s got this and his children’s backs! If there are people in your life causing pain, pray for them and get away from them. Never stop praying for those who’ve harmed you, the sinner, those with closed hearts to God, The Father and Jesus. You’ll feel a profound peace overcome you once you accept it all. Offer your suffering to Jesus for what he suffered for us. And, DON’T EVER FEAR Satan. He feeds off that. Feel pity for him and his ignorance, he’s so prideful it’ll drive him mental! 🙏🍀🍀🍀
You said this in such a loving manner. As did Father. But just as there are the words of many saints advising different ways to attain the same goal, so you did also. Every person is unique, but there are canonized saints with the Angels, and those like you still here that many can find some whose words speak to them more than others. Thank you and Father for not giving up on all of us. I just read a few news articles that just made me ill to see how Satan and his mirror image creepy minions are actually causing such awful acts by people who listen to them. This talk is a light in the darkness that I need.
😮😮😮 the holy spirit spoke through you. fiery. contagious. 🙏🏻
Brilliant teaching. Thank you Father
I was just thinking last week that I want to become a saint no matter how unknown because it's the only way to get to God, to reach heaven. Thank you. I saw Blood Diamond too. The father was relentless!
Amen! Thank you Father Columna! 🙏🥳😎
What a beautiful way to start my day!!! Thanks be to God and God bless you ❤❤❤

Fear is an enemy of the soul. Facing all fears directly is like doing physical exercises. It starts out tough, but when the soul gets stronger facing fear is enjoyable. It’s like running five miles at your fastest pace and not even breathing hard.
I have not got to that point yet. Basically afraid of everything for the past four years. Anxiety is beyond anything you can imagine.
I just love watching you and listening to what you have to say. It's like you're looking right at me, speaking to ME! You are so encouraging, and uplifting and funny all at the same time. I know truth when I hear it. Lately I've really needed someone to tell me to keep fighting the good fight. I know it, I just need to hear it. 🥰When I hear truth, the Holy Spirit always bring tears to my eyes, like straight from the gut, that's how I know its Him. Thank you for doing Gods will and speaking to people like me all the way around the world, love the accent.🤣
No wonder why God always remind us not to despair but to have hope in Him and persevere in our faith!
Your videos shine light into the darkness and give hope to the downtrodden and discouraged - I say this from my own perspective. Thank you 🙏
Aquinas said it well, God will not save you without you because He respects our free will. I can’t understand that people who knows about Jesus Christ cannot love Him, our life here in Earth is so short but eternity awaits us and we can suffer on Earth but that is nothing in the big scheme of things, we must surrender to the will of the Father because He knows better what is good for us. Christians shouldn’t have fear of Death because Death is where life really begins, CHOOSE Christ!! And follow His commandments, love Him, there’s nothing better than that, forget the problems in the institutional church just love!! And fight for the truth!! Be a there are Christian’s right now that are dieing for Him who opens up the Heavens for us, we are His!!! I’m looking forward for the day I meet Him face to face I know I have Him in my mouth and body for fifteen minutes when I consumed the Eucharist but I want to meet Him face to face, and it is not that I have a bad life here on Earth, all the contrary but still He is my priority!!!! Godspeed, thank you Father!! Your people love you!
One's will can still be practiced for several weeks until God raises his right hand and begins to exercise his.😮😳😲
I need to hear this today - thank you, father! +
Reflection: Are the actions I'm doing right now leading me ---> toward God and His kingdom, or away from it?
Or, am I being distracted by the advertisements and the next shiny thing??
Djiamon honsou!!
Father, you are a blessing to this world. ✝️ I feel the Lords love through you.
Thank you father for these strong and helpful words🙏God bless
Thank you Father, you give us so much.
I once read Satan fears three things: the Holy name of Jesus, the Holy name of Mary, and the Brown Scapular.
Don't forget the Holy Rosary! Which is inseparable from the scapular and contains the Holy Names. As for the Holy Name of Jesus I had an experience last night where I was under attack we'll just say, and I began very softly, gently, saying Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, and whatever was afflicting my imagination and head was driven away and tears started flowing. The name of Jesus which invokes His Person and His presence is very powerful. It must have been like fire which burned the demons and drove them away.
I just came from adoration in Medjugorje...Christ in the eucharistic is the power
Amen
Jesus loves you and is with you
Hope I be fully sanctified and consecrated to God the heavenly father and come to know much Christian truth.
Thank you for this message. It brought me so much peace. I am a resolute soul no matter what.
Father Columba is my neighbour and i approve of this message! ❤
In other words, lets agree with the Holy Spirit that lives in us, eh? Really love this one brother
I loved this message❤thank you fr Columba
I want to consecrate myself to Christ. I am not sure about consecrating myself to Mary. I want to totally surrender myself to the will of Christ
Theres a great booklet and retreat called, " Through Mary, to Jesus." Look it up.
Mary always leads to Christ. And what does she say? “Do whatever He tells you”
And from St Maximillian Kolbe- “never be afraid of loving Mary too much. You can never love her more than Jesus did”
God Bless you on your journey!
Many people believe that the devil doesn’t exist
Love your podcasts. They give me courage to pick myself up and fight!
Wow how timely. I have been so encouraged by this and really helped
Praise the Holy Spirit. He really speaks through you. How wonderful to be reminded that we are in the world but not of the world
The best is yet to come. With God's help, we have got this. Praise Jesus.
Thank you! Your message is very much needed in today's world 🙏
J.I. Packer had a prayer:
God is my Father
Heaven is my home
Every day is a day closer.
My Savior in my Brother
Every Christian is my brother too.
He let this repeat in his heart and I have been repeating it too.
Thank you, Brother!
Thank you so much Father. I loved this. This was SO encouraging and TIMELY! Will be listening again and again. May God bless you and your ministry! abundantly
Thank you God. ❤
Greetings from Eire to Irish priest
I needed this today. Thank you for your witness!
God fights with everything He has to reach us and help us obtain Heaven because He believes in who we are and what we're capable of. He knows what we can do because He made us to do that, and it's worth dying for to Him to prevent us from slipping away. He'd rather die for us than see us in Hell.
Please pray for my family Father
The Holy Spirit brings tears to my eyes when He touches my heart as well. Brilliant teaching, Father. Thank you so much!
Amazing talk! Wow! Thank you, Father!
Yesssss!!! 🥰🥰🥰
You have no idea how much I needed to hear this ♡ Thank you 🙏 ❤
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support, we really appreciate it!
God bless you Father. Wonderful depth.
how deeply sincere..thank you.
I am so thankful to God right now for you brother. Thank you for your devoation to fidelity in Christ. You have reached deep places that God has clearly healed that I believe deep down He will heal in me too. I get distracted by the feelings of defeat, and have been for some months now but this message has truly encourage my heart. It has spoken to that part of me that is yelling out freedom to the parts that are still trapped in hurt & pain. Thank you - it's the first time in a very long time that i've felt deeply encouraged to seek His face again.
P.s. Keep Fight For My Heart by KXC & Rich & Lydia Dicas broke me in the best why possible. Thank you for sharing such visials and music to help this truth land for me and bring freedom once again
Amen!
Glory be to God forever!
Thank you Father for your encouragement to be relentless for Christ!!🙏❤️🕊🌟🎶
Thank you for this video. Well timed. 😊
That was beautiful. Just one idea at the end to explore, when you mentioned that we are not made for this world but for Heaven. Unfortunately many people have taken that literally over the years, as though this is an encouragement to misuse and cruelly treat the earth.
My grandmother always said that she felt closest to God in the garden, where she nurtured and actively loved His creation.
God keeps hoping his children will become gardeners, nurturing the natural world with care and wisdom, yet very few do so.
Well now. That was spot on! 🎯🔥
Thank you, great idea...
Great to put this all in our hrarts.and do it.
Thanks! Great motivation talk!
I loved this
God bless everyone here may we keep our eyes set on heaven and strive for a pure heart.
Yessss!!!! Let’s gooo!!!!
Great message, thank you!!!
It's a great movie Blood Diamond.
I needed to hear this. God Bless
🙏
Thank you! You’re amazing!
Very good! Thank you so much,, needed your wise words
Thank you fr
❤❤❤
I never clicked on a video so fast.😂
Thank you so much for this lovely video! It was really helpful! ❤🥰I just love your tips, they're so thoughtful! 💖
Very good! ❤❤❤
That was awesome
This clip was food for my soul ❤
Wonderful! I actually researched what Pelagianism was and learned a lot! So thank you for that! I get Peligius' point: the dual natures and fighting for our soul. The free will part is what I'm stuck on. We have free will, but it's been given to us from the Father, right? So it follows then that we'd better make the right choices. Is that what it means? Like your Dad giving you the keys to his mid-life crisis sports car and he says "Don't do anything stupid." Is that Pelagianism? If so, is that why there's so much sin in this world, because people choose the wrong thing?! So are we supposed to believe in Original Sin and just believe, "well, I was made faulty from the start, so I'm bound to muck it up." ?? Then if so, I feel like I'm such a loser from the start!! I didn't even get a fair shot at using my own free will!! It's depressing. It's sad. Original sin is hard to swallow. I do like how you said that Pelagianism is "go for it, you can do it!!" BUT we need the help (Grace) of God to do the "it." I liked that. So that means that we should always give Praise to Almighty God because it was Him who 'made it happen' and that we picked out something good to do with our free will. Then why don't more people like athletes and brilliant scientists and doctors and anyone else that is successful scream at the top of their lungs "PRAISE GOD!! I AM NOTHING WITHOUT HIM!!!" ?? Why isn't there more praise for God?!
🥊🥊 Fight! ❤
Pray.
Against Satan only one name ...Mary or Mum and Hail Mary...trust me.
Amen
Thanks Father❤
I love that scene in that movie. Very powerful.
Thank you so much for that additional info. Also- will keep you in prayer! 🙏
I like the visual of the devil’s advertising 😂😂😂
Will Satan attack me more the more he fears me??
Amen!
