In 2020, Fr. Rick Heilman expanded exposition of the Blessed Sacrament around daily Mass. He places the Monstrance above the Tabernacle where the removable crucifix is stationed during Mass.
His new book and campaign, “Let Freedom Ring – 40 Day Tactical Training to Freedom from the Devil”, promotes adoration, and became “the most popular book on spiritual warfare”.
A quote from his 40 day email campaign that covers the content of the book:
“It’s time to make it personal. It’s time to get near to Him before the Blessed Sacrament, to spend time adoring Our Lord. This can be done by scheduling an hour at a local adoration chapel, or you can simply come early or stay after Mass. Be careful though, because you may just find yourself crying out, ‘My Lord and my God!’ … and then everything will change. Your life, filled with hope, will rise to new and exciting heights!” – Fr. Rick Heilman
His full reflection that contains the above quote is below:
Day 2 – Let Freedom Ring: Freedom from Despair
At a word from You the devil and his minions flee in terror.
You are the source of all truth. You are the source of all strength.
By the power of your Cross and Resurrection, we beseech You, O Lord
To extend Your saving arm and to send Your holy angels
To defend us as we do battle with Satan and his demonic forces.
Exorcise, we pray, that which oppresses Your Bride, The Church,
So that within ourselves, our families, our parishes, our dioceses, and our nation
We may turn fully back to You in all fidelity and trust.
Lord, we know if You will it, it will be done.
Give us the perseverance for this mission, we pray.
Amen
St. Joseph…pray for us
St. Michael the Archangel…pray for us
(the patron of your parish )…pray for us
(your confirmation saint)…pray for us
There is a stirring scene in the sixth chapter of John’s Gospel, a chapter referred to as the “Bread of Life Discourse.” Jesus had just told the crowd, “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life.” The response by nearly all was, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?” Jesus returns with, “The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing.” And then, in the 66th verse of chapter 6 of John’s Gospel, or rather John 6:66, almost everyone leaves: “From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.”
