In this work Olivier Clement comments on three traditional prayers. The author's intention is to discern, within the depths of the texts themselves a trinitarian revelation, the ways of communion. The other prayers are familiar in the Eastern tradition: first the prayer of the Holy Spirit which, in the Byzantine rite, precedes any liturgical action, and on a more personal level, any work of reflection or witness. The final prayer is characteristic of the services of Great Lent and sums up the interior struggle for trust, humility and respect for each other.

Dear Friends, This is perhaps one of the most important books I have ever written in my life. It is the fourteenth in the series. Each one will contain a chapter from the the book Angelic Encounters Enlisting Help from heaven. I use it every single day and it is one of the most powerful tools to pray that I have ever used. It has been such an amazing tool in my own life that it is too good not to share with you! The reason is because it enables you to choose just three prayers a day for two weeks and find a scripture for each one. Simple, easy and not a huge time comittement. The results are ASTOUNDING! How to use this book: You simply write your prayer, and the date. There is a space to go back and write the date of the answer. It will encourage when you see that God really does listen and care about you personally and He will answer your prayers. Then look up a corresponding scripture and next you pray it out loud. For myself I type in a word or phrase from my request to corresponding scripture passage on the internet. For example if I am praying for direction I will type in the search bar "scriptures about direction." There are often several to choose from and more often than not one of them just seems perfect for what I am praying about. Here is what the bible says about the word of God: "For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Hebrews 4: 12(NKJV) "So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Romans 10:17 (NKJV). When you hear yourself pray it will help you to believe what you are praying for! In addition to your own scriptures each page starts with an additional scripture at the top of the page and I promise you God will speak directly to you. He has a specific and wonderfully unique plan for your life. The first part of the book contains a true story from the book Angelic Encounters: Enlisting Help from Heaven and a bible lesson to get you started. God loves you. He wants to speak to you. He wants to guide, direct and answer your prayers. He has an amazing plan for your life! The book is designed to write three prayers a day, add your own scriptures and then there is some thought provoking questions along with a short devotional which will uplift, inspire and encourage you. May he grant every heart's desire, bring you delight, and reveal amazing truths as you work through this book!Blessings dear friends!Bonnie McPhail
