Feast of St. Raphael the Archangel | God’s Healing Messenger & Protector of Souls

About this sermon

St. Raphael the Archangel is a powerful intercessor for families, travelers, and those seeking healing and spiritual protection. This Catholic sermon for his traditional feast on October 24 explores the Book of Tobias and encourages us to remember the angels God sends to assist us on our journey to heaven. St. Raphael’s name means “God heals.” Through his guidance of the younger Tobias and his assistance to Sarah, we discover reasons to seek his prayers for our children, our safety, our marriages, and strength against temptation and discouragement. Do you have an adult child leaving home, beginning college, or starting a new job? Is your marriage facing difficulties? Bring these intentions to God and ask St. Raphael to intercede. Above all, this homily invites us to thank God for the holy angels, remember our guardian angels, and follow Christ with greater generosity. 00:00 Real Estate for Life sponsor message 00:25 The feast of St. Raphael the Archangel 00:48 Angels as spiritual creatures 01:16 God’s gift of guardian angels 01:48 The multitude of angels assisting us 02:19 St. Raphael: “God heals” 02:28 The healing waters in St. John’s Gospel 02:36 Lessons from the Book of Tobias 03:06 Seeking St. Raphael’s intercession 03:14 Praying for adult children leaving home 03:32 Protection on our journeys 03:47 Spiritual protection against evil 04:10 Prayer amid temptation and discouragement 04:34 St. Raphael, Tobias & Sarah 04:53 Praying for the protection of marriage 05:30 Never forget the holy angels 05:46 Following Christ with a generous heart 06:02 Gratitude to the angels & closing blessing St. Raphael the Archangel, pray for us.
