Novena to the Holy Spirit

May 29, 2019 by Lauren Gates Leave a Comment

Did you know that the very first novena in our Catholic tradition dates back to the very first Pentecost?

From EWTN’s website: “The novena in honor of the Holy Spirit is the oldest of all novenas since it was first made at the direction of Our Lord Himself when He sent His apostles back to Jerusalem to await the coming of the Holy Spirit on the first Pentecost! It is still the only novena officially prescribed by the Church. Addressed to the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity, it is a powerful plea for the light and strength and love so sorely needed by every Christian.”

As the Easter season draws to a close and Ordinary Time begins, join us in praying this powerful novena for the next nine days as we wait for the Holy Spirit to renew our hearts!

You can find the prayers for the novena here.

Praying with the Bible

May 23, 2019 by Lauren Gates Leave a Comment

The Bible has been described as many things over the centuries: our Church history, a road map to heaven, a love letter from God, etc. One of the most important titles we can give the Bible is “a prayer.”

The Bible contains every sort of prayer imaginable. Particularly in the Psalms, there are passages of praise, passages of lament, and everything else in between.

Through the Bible, God reveals to us how we should pray. He gives us words where we may have none of our own, and through the Biblical figures, He shows us how He answers prayer, to encourage us.

By taking time every day to meditate on the Scriptures, we learn to hear God’s voice. It is of the utmost importance as Christians that we learn to recognize God’s voice, so that we can discern when He is speaking to us in our daily lives.

If praying with the Bible is something you feel inspired to try, you can start by opening up to the Psalms, or the Gospels. Ask God to open your heart and mind to what He wants you to hear, and after reading a passage, pause in silence to listen for the Holy Spirit’s guidance.

Take advantage of this beautiful tool that God Himself scripted through the Biblical authors. He knew then what you and I would need to hear today.

Lie #3: The Most Dangerous Lie of All

May 18, 2019 by Andy Lesnefsky 1 Comment

I think this is the most dangerous lie of the devil.

The third and final line that Dave VanVickle will be examining today, is that spiritual warfare is simply an analogy. Perhaps, at first glance that doesn’t seem dangerous, but it’s important we understand why it is.

As a parent, I’ll never forget when my son struck out in baseball for the first time. Up to that point, baseball is kind of pretend. The coach pitches until you hit the ball, or they put up the tee for you to hit off. When you strike out, the game becomes real.

Obviously spiritual warfare is much more serious than little league baseball.

In this video, Dave explains the danger of believing that spiritual warfare is only an analogy. It’s a wake-up call to remember the battle is real. How do you truly prepare and what are your tools for fighting?

This is the last of this little mini-series and tomorrow is the big launch day of Dave’s Spiritual Warfare 101 series. (Be on the lookout for a special one day discount sure the Redeemed Online subscribers.)

Here’s today’s video:

As we launch this series, your prayers are appreciated and I would love to pray for you. What can I be praying for you for today? Shoot me an email, or comment below and let me know.

God bless,
