The 1st and 2nd inductions for "Breaking Strongholds In The Mind" (using Joyce Meyer's syllabus of Battlefield of the Mind) was held on 18th June, and 2nd July.
Here are some insights shared from the inductions.
Ist induction - 18th June 2009
Many a times our problems come from the choices we make, not people as how we perceive it.
The CHOICES we make are based on our THINKING. What we BELIEVE gives us the ability to do something well which leads to our DOING (repentance). It is OK when our belief is higher than our doing, but when our skill is higher than the belief is when we find ourselves stuck!
Are we doing from a mindset of "a person willing" or "a victim"?
When we find ourselves a "victim" and think that we have no choice we are at a tolerating level and ANYTHING CAN SPARK OFF A QUARREL.
How many kinds of thinking are there?
Basically there are 3 types.
1. Information
2. Knowledge
3. Wisdom
Information when applied becomes knowledge and it's for the benefit of self. Knowledge becomes wisdom when we begin to serve others. When we are not taking the information to serve others then we are actually using God instead of being used by God.
Information-based people are unrealistic people.
Information-based people are unrealistic people.
Problems don't go away with time. Life accords you the opportunity for God to develop you. If you say "life is meaningless", it shows you do not really want to change.
Stephen Covey says "Life must never reach a point where it is urgent"
Food for thoughts:
1. Who are the 12 important people in your life?
2. You did not know what to choose after choosing the right thing, which resulted in a lot of trouble. Why is so?
3. For authority and submission to be established in your life, there must be the ONE thing that you cannot do. What is that? You will not be destroyed by the thing you do best but by the ONE thing you are not supposed to do.
2nd induction - 2nd July 2009
God created male and female BUT do you know that there is a process that one must go through to transit from being a female to a woman (child -> teen -> adult) to being a wife and then a mother just as a man has to transit from being a boy to a man, to a husband, and then a father?
Yet, many of us despite being wife and mother still do not know our role as a woman.
To understand our roles on how to be the woman that God has created you to be, this course will help you to apply God's truth and mercy into your life to bring you the freedom you need.
Invite your friends and relatives for the the class which starts on 9th July @ 8.30pm. For more information contact Serena at +6012-2811995 or Wini +6012-2681197 as seats are limited.
