from Dan Burke - The Way of Contemplation · host Avila Foundation

Summary: Dan discusses the power of contemplative living and its impact on spiritual warfare. He explains that when individuals engage in daily mental prayer, their awareness of God and the enemy's tactics becomes heightened. This awareness allows them to align themselves with God's will and actively resist the enemy's attacks. Dan shares a personal experience of the enemy attempting to hinder his prayer practice and how he responded by intensifying his prayers. He encourages listeners to embrace a contemplative life, become warriors for the kingdom, and help others do the same. Key Takeaways: +Contemplative living opens one's eyes to the reality and presence of God and the enemy's tactics. +Daily mental prayer expands the heart and mind, leading to a deeper awareness of God and the spiritual battle. +When faced with attacks from the enemy, it is important to counterattack by intensifying one's prayer practice. +Embracing a contemplative life allows individuals to become victors instead of victims and serve the kingdom of God. Quotes: "Contemplative living is like walking around with night vision, where the reality and presence of God is really bright and constant." "The enemy hates this prayer. So what to do about it? Record it again? I will, but I think it's important to counterattack when you get an attack like this." "Those who embrace a contemplative life will be warriors for the kingdom and help others do the same." Learn more at AposotliViae.org
