Fr Elijah has no direct relationship with Elijahs Cloak channel. The names are just coincidence.

thank you for the Prevenient Prayer, God bless you

[@filomenacruz9915]

I love it when one of the sisters said that we are imperfect in many ways because then we realize the significance of being in the Divine Will total dependence on God or else we become prideful. Luisa saying she was the worst , what profound humility considering she was chosen to be a messenger of Jesus’ Divine Will.

Humility is the foundation of the spiritual life.

Wonderful, unexpected, fresh, I know what my next translation work will be (BTW right now i'm working on "living continuously in the DW" from this very channel).

It is easy to take for granted what we have. This Benedictine Order of the Divine Will is the first of its kind. We are looking at the very beginning. God bless.

Hiya Have you assembled the different prayers Jesus gave to Luisa like; "Ever Holy and indivisible Trinity, I adore You profoundly, I love You intensely, I thank You perpetually, for all and in the hearts of all." And I went on in this way, hearing Him pray almost continuously inside of me, and I with Him. Jan. 14, 1902

[@ElijahsCloak]

Hi Ed, there are many beautiful prayers in Luisa's Writings. A common feature with the Great Saints is that their prayers are strikingly beautiful and startlingly profound. The prayers of St Pio and St John of the Cross are like this as well. I never assembled them or recommended specific forms of prayers with the exception of the Rosary, the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and the Consecration to the Divine Will. I mentioned the Prevenient Act and the Rounds many times; but not a specific format. I agree. A compilation of Luisa's Prayers would be a great resource.

[@sharonmcgonegal44]

A necessary precaution regarding the Divine Will Resources listed at the end of this presentation: several months ago, Divine Will Era grossly maligned Fr. Blount and also Daniel O'Connor. When i attempted to interact with them and with one other viewer, in order to defend Fr. Blount and D. O'Connor, all of my attempts were immediately removed by the provider.

[@ElijahsCloak]

Other viewers have brought this to my attention. There cannot be disunity in the DW. Growth in the DW means that there is also growth of the Soul in the Attributes of God - one of which is Unity. This theme of Unity has been a focus of this channel recently. This Tuesday will feature a talk by Ireland's Frances Hogan on this topic. God bless.

[@joni3503]

May I ask you how the orders of the divine Will are church approved orders, when L. Piccareta's teachings have not yet been approved ?

[@ElijahsCloak]

These Orders are approved because, during the Beatification process for Luisa, her writings were reviewed at the Diocesan level and then at the Vatican. Luisa's Writings were determined to contain nothing contrary to Faith or Morals during this process.

[@gailkoelmeyer7650]

would you please post this Prevenient Act prayer... it was not audible at certain moments. Thankyou, most gratefully.

[@ElijahsCloak]

"O Jesus, I give to you my will, my life, and myself in exchange for Your Will. Your Life, and Yourself. I now climb upon the lap of my Heavenly Mother. Let her feed me the life of the Divine Will. I ask her to place me before her eternal gaze to warn me and protect me from any dangers to my soul and life within the Divine Will. I invite all the angels and saints to join me today in all that I do, think, and say. And I go into all creation to be their voice, reason, and will to love, adore, and glorify God in each of the acts that I accomplish in the Divine Will this day."

[@-LoriAnn]

Please correct the prayer to read, “..climb upon the lap of…”. May God bless you and thank you for posting this video!

[@loretteweaver9759]

In the beginning You mentioned Fr. Blount will be sharing more about Louisa and living in the Divine Will. while he is in Medjugoria! Fr. Blount is very humble & very powerful! Pray he teaches us more’ Especially, help is needed for beginners! I learned from Fr. John Olin Brown ! Its strange…..No one… mentions his teachings!!!!! That confuses me!!!🙏😔🙏

[@ElijahsCloak]

I as well owe Fr John much. I probably mention him more than anyone which also perplexes me. I mentioned his role with Luisa's original documents in my recent video about Pope Benedict and also when I made an appearance on Divine Will Era's Christmas Party video.

[@137997311ful]

Can you give an example how one takes Jesus' life and makes it our own? Would I say: "Dear Jesus, I take your life, your Holy Humanity and all your Divine Acts you accomplished for me and I make them my own. This way, when I go before my Heavenly Father He will see all your Acts cover over all my life acts and be well pleased." Is this how I would pray living in the Divine Will?

[@ElijahsCloak]

Enzo, thank you for your question. One answer is that when doing the rounds to repeat the acts performed by Jesus in His Humanity on Earth. This channel has a video by Fr Iannuzzi on "Re-doing Acts." The best way is to transform your life in God's Divine Will. In this way, you are living the Life of Jesus by sharing His Divine Will instead of pursuing your own Human Will. God will then see His own Life within you. I personally paraphrase Luisa's prayer "may you receive the honor and the glory as if another Jesus is living this day."

[@michelemcdermott75]

I’m totally new to this. Found a talk on Divine Will on KZbin- where can I learn more?

[@ElijahsCloak]

Welcome, Michele! You can use the link below to obtain all of the videos of this channel which is primarily about the Divine Will and Marian Apparitions. Also, if you look at the Playlist section there is an Introductory Playlist. At the end of every Divine Will video, the last screen has recommendations for more sources for additional study including a link to download Luisa Piccarreta's writings. If you have any questions, let me know. God bless.

Divine Will is not approved by the catholic church . Is it disobedient to practice it?

[@ElijahsCloak]

The writings of the Divine Will have been approved by the Vatican during the course of pursuing the Cause of Luisa Piccarreta's Beatification. These writings have been approved by both her local Diocese and by the Vatican.

[@EduardoAlvarez1946]

The first half of the Video, with testimonies of the Sisters was very good. When the Priest starts talking, what he showed was that he has no idea what the Gift of the Divine Will is, what the coming Kingdom of the Divine Will is all about and has no idea what the coming Era of Peace is about. Pity that a Priest that has the responsibility to present and pray for the Kingdom, doesn't know about it. Pity!

[@ElijahsCloak]

Eduardo, thank you for this comment. You didn't specify your objection to Father's talk. But I assume that it is the reference to the Sacrifice of the Mass being a Round and the Church being the Kingdom of the DW. Jesus tells Luisa that He relives His entire life everyday in the Holy Sacrament. From that perspective, those living in the DW can repeat the Acts of Jesus that He performed in His Humanity in the Holy Sacrament. We know that the Church will exist in the upcoming Triumph of the Immaculate Heart because Jesus mentioned that it will be the Pope who gives the gift of the DW to Israel. A restored Church will be restored because it's members are restored by Living in the DW.

[@baguiobroom1]

The explanation of Fr. ELIJA makes me fall in love with the Holy Mass ever more deeply... thank you Fr.. the Mass is the greatest Round..💖💖💖🇵🇭

[@flowergirl3438]

The testimonies of the Sisters were beautiful. I'm not sure if I understood the relationship to Living in the Divine Will with Father's speech. Maybe he hasn't read the volumes or understood the gift that was given to Louisa. He did mention another saint who DID the Will of God, but living in the Divine Will is much different than doing the will of God.

[@ElijahsCloak]

I understood Fr Elijah perfectly. He began by saying "that everyone agrees that Luisa is a Saint and now the task is to understand how this fits theologically in the Church." In Living in the Divine Will, doing God's Will is to Live it. Jesus makes the distinction between Doing and Living. But even Jesus uses the verb Do on occasion when he is referring to what we understand as Living it. The foundation for Living in the Divine Will is to be the "Good Catholic." We are not protestant dispensationalists. We are not dispensing with 2000 years of tradition and teaching. Loving in the Divine Will IS Catholic.

[@clarasantiso8246]

Cannot hear hardly anything, bummer.

[@ElijahsCloak]

Mother Gabrielle speaks softly compared to the others.

[@toomylight2311]

It is human to be grouchy sometimes though , you see as an adult now I get it but as a child and the teaching of the Catholic Church you feel so much pressure , god says be joyful all the time , be good , be kind , be patient etc etc , priests never really explained back then what it is to be human and you felt pressure all the time to be this perfect person , if you were not than you were bad , this in my opinion is where the Catholic Church feel down so much and a lot of people left. Be c with words and how it’s taught .

[@MaranathatoJesusthroughMary]

Father Elijah is a good man. Mother Gabrielle Marie is a lovely woman. The Benedictines of The Divine Will and The Daughters of The Divine Will have been a refuge and help and support for me. Brother Giovanni too. So say what you like about them but I know them personally and can vouge for them all each and every single Benedictine and Daughter of the Divine Will. If it wasn't for them, I would be lost. These are good people so I would rather that you do not say a bad word against them. These are people of love so if you want to say a bad word against them I would advise getting to know them first before you judge them. Romans 2.1. These are good people so do not judge them. Good people who take care of their community. They are serving God's Holy Divine Will. Amen

[@ElijahsCloak]

I agree. They have a very important role.

[@toomylight2311]

Yes but he also wants you to have empathy and sympathy for people in war torn countries, if you switched off completely there would be no humanitarian help , government help etc , this is where I get confused you have to be clued in some what. I get it to a degree that it can drag you down but you can’t float around in a disillusioned state !!🥺

[@ElijahsCloak]

As Scripture tells us, Jesus displayed emotions - weeping, joy, anger. Living in the DW, we are still fully human. As we advance in the DW, we will share in God's attributes- one of which is immutability - unchangingness. How this is manifested in our human lives is what some refer to as a certain resignation regarding events which transpire. It is the ability to withstand.

[@toomylight2311]

@@ElijahsCloak Oh father, that’s where I fall down I’m afraid , maybe I’m overly empathetic and sensitive to what goes on in the world , even with everyday mundane events in ordinary life I find it harder and harder to meet genuine kind honest people. Nobody’s perfect I get that we’re all just muddling through trying to figure it out as we go along including myself it I always feel like I’m on the outside looking in , I converse with Jesus every day and we have good old chats but always asking him what my purpose is at the age if 50 and kids are go e out there looking but nothing working , is it me I wonder or what is the plan on the other side because I’m sure his intentions were not for me to. Be at home feeling redundant and lonely. complete waste of valuable time in my opinion. ok I have physical health issues but cmon lord there must be something I can contribute too!🙏🙏😱
