Novena to God the Father – Day 7: “Honour our father”

“Honor to whom honor is due” (Rom 13:7). This  applies to our Father more than to anyone else! To Him belong “honour, glory and praise”, as the hymn of the Apocalypse so beautifully proclaims (Rev 5:12).

If we could only catch a glimpse of heaven and see how He is constantly honoured by the angels and saints who live in loving and full communion with Him, our attitude towards God would be profoundly transformed. Read More

Novena to God the Father – Day 6: “To know our Father”

In 1932, God the Father appeared to an Italian nun, Sister Eugenia Ravasio. She wrote down the message that the Heavenly Father had entrusted to her. After a long and detailed examination, the local bishop of Grenoble, the place where the apparitions took place, recognised the authenticity of the message. As a result, we have received an especially valuable booklet entitled “The Father Speaks to His Children” (you can download it from this link: https://fatherspeaks.net/eugenia_msg.html). Read More

Novena to God the Father – Day 5: ‘The generosity of our Father’

Generosity is one of the characteristics of God. With great joy He shares with us His immeasurable riches. He wants to give us not only life, but “life in abundance” (cf. Jn 10:10).

Endless joy and happiness await us in eternity: death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more” (Rev 21:4). God Himself will be our reward! Read More

Novena to God the Father – Day 2: “Our Father’s heart is wide open”

We human beings are created in the image and likeness of God (cf. Gen 1:26). It is rightly said that the heart is the centre of the person. Only those things that we do with our whole heart find their full and integral expression. When we do things with our heart, we put the stamp of our whole identity on them. In this way we act and speak with true conviction. Read More

Novena to God the Father – Day 1: “God is love”

Over the next 9 days we will hear short meditations on our Heavenly Father, interspersed with songs in His honour. Some faithful Catholics celebrate a feast in honour of the Heavenly Father, the Father of all Mankind, every 7th August. This feast dates back to a request He made to Mother Eugenia Ravasio in 1932. This private revelation was carefully examined and approved by the local bishop of the diocese where the events took place. I myself came across this message several years ago and found it very valuable in helping me to deepen my relationship with God the Father. Read More

Part XIII: Concluding reflections

Over the past few weeks, I have discussed two serious topics in my daily meditations. In the first series, I spoke about self‑deception and other deceptions that have recently occurred in the world and in the Church. In the second series—which, in a certain sense, could be considered an extension of the first—we have spoken about the advent of a specific Antichrist, whose spirit, from my point of view, is already working intensely to prepare for his seizure of power.

Part XII:  The spiritual armor

After the eleven previous meditations in this series, it has certainly become clear to us that the Antichrist, who is to appear in the End Times before the Second Coming of Christ, will be a person deeply influenced by Satan. By perverting the hypostatic union of the Son of God, who took on human nature without losing His divine nature, the Antichrist will enter into a kind of “pseudomystical union” with Lucifer. Soloviev alludes to this in his Short Tale of the Antichrist, which I summarized in Part III of this series (https://en.elijamission.net/part-iii-the-antichrist-in-solovyovs-narrative/). Read More

Part XI:  Other forms of spiritual resistance

Anyone with eyes to see will undoubtedly be able to discern the extent to which a “different spirit” is exerting influence on the ecclesiastical hierarchy and, consequently, also on the faithful who trust in its guidance. While it is good for the sheep to follow their shepherds, obedience is abused when the shepherds no longer lead the flock along the path God has laid out for them. Unfortunately, this is precisely what is happening at crucial junctures. Read More
