This event eventually changed my perception in life and I consider this as a moment of awakening for me. Living in the presence of God was as hard as I ever could imagine until this event came. I would never replace any great experience like this one. Well, you might be curious on the things that I am sharing with so let's get started and discover what "Encounter God Weekend" is all about...
These are weekend retreats, usually set away from the city in a conference centre. Encounters generally last three days where there is basic Christian teaching on holiness, prayer, fellowship with God, forgiving, tithing, speaking life, walking in the Spirit, demonic liberation (which is also called casting out the enemy or deliverance), healing the sick, winning souls for Christ, having patience and bearing fruit. One of the main points for these "encounters" is for the believer to have a genuine repentance and revelation of what the cross is all about. Also in these encounters there is extensive prayer and use of common symbolic acts to define the end of the old and beginning of the new.
Laying aside the old self-rejecting old ways of thinking, acting, feeling,. Renewing believer's mind with God's truth-understanding the truth of what Christ has accomplished for them and that that gives them a new capacity to live for Him. Putting on the new self-in thought, words, actions, values, and relationships. The main purpose of these encounters is for the believer to have an actual encounter with God face to face. For him or her to give themselves completely to God, the result: to have a Christ-centered self-confidence, Joy, Courage, Peace, and a desire to know Christ.
The next encounter will be on December 26,27 and 28 and will be conducted by the "Christ the healer" church located at the 4th floor of Madayaw Inn, Trading blvd. Feel free to leave a message for some questions regarding this event.
