What is The Flame of Love of the Immaculate Heart of Mary?
The Flame of Love is Jesus Himself!
This "Unity Prayer" is given to us to "Blind the eyes of Satan and all his evil spirits."
Jesus said, “Through this prayer, Satan will be blind and souls will not be led into sin." The Lord explained, “Satan being blind signifies a worldwide triumph of my Sacred Heart, the freedom of souls and a full opening of the road of salvation.” (p. 25 and p.87 in the diary of Elizabeth Kindlemann)
The Unity Prayer:
My Adorable Lord, Jesus,
May our feet journey together.
May our hands gather in unity.
May our hearts beat in unison.
May our souls be in harmony.
May our thoughts be as one.
May our ears listen to
the silence together.
May our glances
profoundly
penetrate each other.
May our lips pray together to
gain mercy from our Eternal Father. Amen.
This prayer of "Unity" with Jesus is not just asking you to do God's will, but instead, it is a total surrender to God's will, allowing Jesus, by His grace, to live within you. This prayer is to fulfill our Father's plan; "...Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." Amen
(see the Novena of Surrender)
The Flame of Love Movement received the Apostolic Blessing of Pope Francis and was encouraged by Pope John Paul II. The movement was set into motion through a relationship with a humble Hungarian mother of six, Elizabeth Szanto Kindelmann, who suffered tremendously for souls. All of the messages Elizabeth recorded in her diary have been approved by her local ordinary, Cardinal Erdo; and her diary has received the imprimatur by numerous bishops in various jurisdictions, including Archbishop Charles Chaput in Philadelphia, the Fountainhead of this Movement in the United States.
The Power of The Unity Prayer
1. Premises
Through her flame of Love, Our Lady promises to blind Satan. Elizabeth Kindelmann, the Secular Carmelite and widowed mother of six through whom Jesus and Mary initiated the Flame of Love Movement records some experiences of seeing Satan blinded. On one occasion, she commanded him to listen to her (a painful experience for him). On another occasion, she saw all the little devils unable to act because they were receiving no orders. Their blinded leader had nothing to say.
This little talk explains what it means to blind Satan and how important this is.
2. Jesus Drives Out Satan
The gospels constantly state that Jesus visited many towns, driving out Satan and preaching the Kingdom. The two activities are deeply connected. If Satan holds someone in his power, Jesus’ words have no effect. It is like showing a movie to a blind man.
This “blinding of Satan” frees souls so they can respond to God’s graces. Because the world is filled with evil, people cannot respond to God’s grace. Satan blocks people’s thoughts and feelings. When he is blinded, he loses his powers, and the person experiences the freedom to say “yes” to God.
3. How Does Satan Gain His Power?
Satan needs an entrance, some door or window that has been opened to him. This happens primarily by sin. By each sin, the person falls more into Satan’s grasp. By each confession of sins, the person moves out of Satan’s control. (Sins involving the occult put people more directly under Satan’s power.)
Today, our culture and society are filled with demonic. People are not free to respond to God’s grace. The “Blinding of Satan”, through this devotion is extremely important.
4. Widespread Unbelief
Decades ago, everybody believed. Now, large masses of people (especially the young who have been subjected to this darkness), have little faith in the world of Jesus.
Large numbers no longer see the need for Sunday mass. Every commandment is challenged and broken. People have no personal inclination for the supernatural. All of this is Satan’s work. Satan has covered over Jesus’ world. When he is blinded, people will see again and be free to respond.
5. Evangelism Efforts
Our efforts at evangelization yield little fruit because Satan makes people deaf to the gospel.
Satan places an invisible wall around people’s minds and hearts. The gospel cannot penetrate. God’s graces become like water off a duck’s back. They never enter the heart because Satan is not blinded. The gospel will penetrate again when Satan is blinded and loses his powers.
6. The Denial of Satan
Satan’s greatest ploy is to get people to deny that he exists or that he plays a very small role in human life. But Satan is everywhere. Wherever there is an addiction, Satan is there. Wherever there is great suffering in relationships, Satan is there. When a person goes off the track and walks away from God, Satan is there. His fingerprints are everywhere, and “blinding Satan” is a great gift won for the Church and the world by the Flame of Love devotion.
