3. Call the enemy by its name and ask God for help
When we face or fall into temptation it is helpful to admit it: “I am being tempted by the devil, the enemy of God.” Call it by its name, and say short and fervent prayers to ask the Lord’s help. Examples of these short prayers include: “Jesus, I trust in you.” “Lord save me.” “Lord, come to my defense.” “Sweet Heart of Mary, protect me under your mantle.” Invoke (say) with faith the names of Jesus, Mary, and St. Joseph.
