Download or read book Meditation Prayer Affirmations written by Edgar Cayce and published by ARE Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps more than any other advice offered in the Edgar Cayce readings, meditation, prayer, and the use of spiritual affirmations were given as tools for personal attunement and enlightenment. The Cayce readings were one of the first sources in the Western hemisphere to consistently recommend meditation to individuals from every religious background. The Cayce readings on prayer advance the ecumenical "Oneness" nature of prayer and discuss the workings and vibrations of this integral tool for personal attunement and spiritual healing. The Cayce readings frequently extol the extraordinary power of affirmations with the philosophy that "mind as the builder" and the premise that personal co-creation is empowered by that which the mind dwells upon. In other words, what one continues to think, one eventually becomes.
Download or read book Today s Prayer and Meditation written by Phillip C. Reinke and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2017-02-08 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pray without ceasing" is more easily said than done. Prayer and meditation are a foundational aspect of a Christian walk. As we work to make our lives a prayer, the depth of our talks with God go further than simple requests to spiritual introspection and reflection, looking both inward and outward for answers that help us grow. Today's Prayer and Meditation features 365 prayers that dig deep into the pressing questions in one's spiritual walk. "I have known Phil for many years and can witness to the fact that his daily prayers are exactly the way he lives his life. The messages of each prayer to God takes us to higher levels of thought and spiritual understanding. Even more important, the prayers focus our thoughts to God and His mission and purpose for us." "As a professor, he showed love and concern to all of his students. He selflessly helped beyond their studies and mentored and coached many with addictions, and severe personal issues. As my friend, he has been supportive, and more important, always in prayer for me, my family, and for those in the world around us. I highly recommend joining with what he calls, 'the Prayer Warriors' and praying daily." - Mark Conroy, pastor, Coastal Church, Daytona Beach, Florida
