Retreat Subjects

RETREAT MINISTRY    

Listed below are some of the subjects that may be given attention during the Retreat over Friday night and Saturday. We have a well trained and anointed team who are involved in the Prayer Ministry during the Retreat. Great care is given in creating the presence of a powerful but loving God, who is safe to be close to.

THE SPIRIT OF PRIDE  

The Spirit of Pride stops God's grace flowing to us. Do you need more of His grace in your life? Then we need to deal with our pride.and with the spirit of pride. .Pride will keep us from seeking God. "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble ." Pride is surely a barrier to us receiving all God has for us.

SPIRIT OF UNFORGIVENESS  

Harboring unforgiveness may be the most common area of sin and disobedience among believers. This seems to be an area of truth that is either overlooked, glossed over, or rationalized away. For some of us, we've just not wanted to deal with it. FEAR   How do we behave?   Fear prompts us to take action to protect ourselves or others , our property , our finances or our position or our well being . Our response may be in two ways:

SPIRIT OF REJECTION  

Every sin we have ever committed finds its roots in the spirit of rejection. Rejection on earth was birthed in the Garden of Eden. As we have examined the scripture, we discovered that rejection has four walls. 1. The Rejection of God. 2. Self Rejection 3. Fear of Rejection 4. Rejection of Others

GUILT, SHAME & CONDEMNATION  

Often times when we focus in on areas of sin and failure, feelings of guilt and shame may begin to stir up inside of us. Satan, the accuser, never misses an opportunity to attack with condemning accusations.

SPIRIT OF ABUSE

Now we need to address the Spirit of Abuse. The assignment of this spirit is to perpetuate abuse from one generation to the next. More often than not, when we have been abused, we in turn become an abuser, and the pattern gets repeated over and over again.

HEALING FOR ABUSE

Psalm 147:3 "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Types: Physical, Verbal, Emotional, Sexual, and Spiritual    

PASSAGE TO PURITY  

This session is about getting free from the residual effects of our sexual past.our own sexual sin, sinful things that have happened to us, or sexual sin that has been rooted in the generations of our family. It might go back to the time before we came to Lord, or it might be as recent as this week. We all know what sexual sin is, but do we really understand how destructive it is? God wants us to see the truth. God designed our sexuality. We also deal with the spirit of lust. Genesis 1:27  

RELIGIOUS SPIRIT  

This spirit traps and deceives people into religious activity or response that are devoid of the presence and the working of the Holy Spirit. 2 Tim. 3:5.   What opened the door? How did it gain entry? Satan wants to take control of our mind. God has created us as people whose minds are active and in gear and thinking at all times.

SPIRIT BEHIND FREEMASONRY  

Freemasonry is fundamentally a religious system totally opposed to Christianity. Freemasons practice a form of witchcraft through taking many oaths and curses. You are able to be set free, healed and enjoy a wonderful relationship with Jesus Christ. We break the power of witchcraft, religion and deception.

SPIRIT OF ANGER  

Anger is a violent passion that often times is precipitated by a deep hurt, pain, and injury, injustice or oppression. Initially, it may be outwardly focused, but if not dealt with can turn inward and become self-destructive.  

SPIRIT OF WITCHCRAFT  

What is it. The powers or practices of people having supernatural powers by means of a compact with the devil, evil spirits, or sorcerers.   How is it shown in our lives?

SPIRIT OF BITTERNESS  

This spirit takes root and has to do with our inability to deal with the hurt and pain caused by others or ourselves. When we fail to deal correctly with these life experiences they can lead to a spirit of bitterness.

SPIRIT OF DEATH  

This is a spirit that has as its assignment to bring death and destruction to any part of man, body, soul, or spirit. What God Says about it. John 10:10    

SPIRIT OF ABANDONMENT

What is it. Abandonment is different from rejection. Anyone can be rejected. Abandonment is rejection by someone who should be there for you. Heb. 13:5      

WORSHIP

The Worship which is lead by a carefully prepared team is a highlight of the Retreat. Our worship is divided into 3 parts. Adoration of God, Intercession by the Holy Spirit, and Spiritual Warfare in music and songs of victory over all the works of darkness. People consider worship to be a great highlight during the Retreat.
