Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and
maketh
manifest the savoir of his knowledge by us in every place. -2 Corinthians 2:14
WHY
WOULD A PASTOR OR COUNSELOR NEED TRAINING IN SPIRITUAL WARFARE?
Pastors
have a responsibility to assist those in their congregations to be able to live
the Christian life. There is an explosion of occult activities all around us.
These can affect those inside and outside the Christian community.
There is an ongoing war for the souls of those in your community.
Are you willing to be used by the Lord Jesus Christ to combat the forces
of evil?
If
an adult came to you as pastor and admitted they had aligned themselves with
Satan as a teenager, would you know how to help them break that bondage?
If a teenager in your congregation has engaged in spells or rituals to
gain power from the devil, would you as a pastor or Christian counselor be able
or willing to help those parents?
If some teenagers or adults in your church were involved in witchcraft,
would you know how to instruct them as to how to pray? Where would you go to
learn how to minister to these needs? Will you stick your head in the sand and
refuse to get involved?
ARE
THERE ANY RESOURCES AVAILABLE IN PRINT?
Triumph
Counseling Ministries has an individualized study to train pastors, counselors
and Christian workers as to how to assist individuals who have been victimized
by Satan and need help. We have encountered individuals in the church who had
difficulty living the Christian life because of past involvement in drugs,
occult, and other sins.
We believe there are many individuals who have this background and that
there will be many more in the future.
Yet there are very few “how to” books written on this subject.
Pastors cannot always come to us, so materials are available that can be
studied individually anywhere. This is why an individualized study was
developed.
