Download or read book First Love Prayers written by Bethany Frazer and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first title for this book was called My Prayer to My Love. It has always been a book from me to God and from Him back to me. It was 1999, I was away at Bible College in Sydney, Australia and God started giving me beautiful prayers and asking me to write them down and re-read them over to myself after I was done. When I would re-read the prayers I found I was weeping every time. He was expressing to me, through my own writing, how much He loved me. So much! It was then that He started leading me to put the prayers together in a book and to share the prayers with others. I gave them to only a handful of people, and watched as God started blessing their own prayer walks through these prayers. I realized that the prayers He was giving me were not sole for my benefit, growth and encouragement, but were meant for far more than just me. I feel honored that I am now able, 10 years later, to share these prayers with you. I pray they minister to you during different seasons of your walk and relationship with Him. And that they help you to grow closer and more intimate with Him, as you seek Him and His presence for every facet of your life. He really does love youso much!

Download or read book Love Prayer and Forgiveness written by Michael Snow and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2004-08 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the original essay, ?When Love Becomes Heresy,? R. C. Sproul wrote, ?...an excellent piece...one that many Christians need to hear.?Love, prayer, and forgiveness do not stand alone. They cannot be isolated from obedience, exhortation, and repentance. The key to remaining faithful to the whole counsel of God is what Elton Trueblood called ?the holy conjunction??AND. Just as dropping the conjunction between Christ?s humanity and divinity gives us heresy, so too does dropping the conjunction between love and obedience, etc.Also, we need clear minds to discern where we have made unholy conjunctions with the spirit of the times. Unholy conjunctions crowd out the holy. Examples include the view in many churches that love excludes discipline but includes same-sex ?marriages.? Regarding undiscerning Christians, Leon Morris observes, ?In the end our idea of love is indistinguishable from the world around us.? Only by keeping the holy conjunction between love and obedience, etc., will we break free from doldrums and become faithful laborers and faithful seekers of lost sheep.
Download or read book The Flame of Love written by Elizabeth Kindelmann and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The devotion of the Flame of Love of the Immaculate Heart of Mary was given to the Church for the specific purpose of blinding Satan so that he loses his influence over our families, our communities-over all people. The movement began with the heart of the poor and humble Hungarian mystic and Third-Order Carmelite, Elizabeth Kindelmann (1913-1985), when she heard the voices of Jesus and Mary through interior locutions between the years 1961 and 1983. The result is this Spiritual Diary, written at the request of Our Lord Jesus, which has received the Imprimatur of the Church and gifted the world untold blessings for our critical times.Jesus said to Kindelmann, "My Mother is Noah's Ark," and Mary told her, "I assure you, my little one, that I have never before given into your hands such a powerful force of grace, the burning flame of the love of my heart. Ever since the Word became Flesh, I have not undertaken a greater movement than the Flame of Love of my heart who rushes to you. Until now, nothing could blind Satan as much. And it is up to you not to reject it, for this rejection would simply spell disaster."The Flame of Love movement is an official Church association of the faithful, enjoying the heartfelt approval of His Eminence Cardinal Péter Erdö, Primate of Hungary, Archbishop of Eszertom-Budapest, and the approval of various bishops in whose dioceses it flourishes, as well as a 2013 apostolic blessing from Pope Francis.God is seeking to build up a holy army of souls in order help us to fight the battle ahead that leads to sure victory for those firm in faith. In this remarkable Spiritual Diary, you follow the life and divine conversations of one of the greatest mystics of the 20th century, learn of the prayers and weekly prayer schedule that effectively blind Satan, and of the divine promises Our Lord wishes to give to us through the intercession of His Mother's Immaculate Heart.
