INTERCESSORY PROGRAMME
The Gideon 300 Intercessory Programme is our flagship 3-year programme that fully explores our teachings on prayer and spiritual warfare.
The program is designed for people who are called with the gift of intercessory on their lives and wish to develop further and is also ideal for people who work in the deliverance ministry at church.
In addition to learning different intercessory skills, such as prayer and fasting, the teachings and trainings also lay the essential foundation for pastoral care, allowing you to understand the difference between the spiritual and psychological needs of people who may approach you about spiritual deliverance.
WHAT YOU WILL GAIN FROM THIS PROGRAMME
INTERCESSORY
EXPERTISE
If you want to become an expert in the field of the Art of Spiritual Intercession, our one-year course is designed to provide you with an understanding of both the theoretical and practical aspects of this subject.
PASTORAL CARE
TRAINING
Our Intercessory program lays the foundation for essential knowledge in pastoral care, enabling efficient support during and after a deliverance session. Our students will be empowered to do so through the training they will receive. This is most valuable if you are a member of your deliverance team or a leader of a deliverance ministry.
SPIRITUAL WARFARE SKILLS
The kingdom of darkness is well-trained, with billions of years of experience in tactical combat strategies. How can you engage in spiritual warfare when you are not equipped to do so?
Our one-year Intercessory program is designed to provide you with the knowledge and understanding of how to combat the enemy using spiritual skills and abilities.

SYLLABUS
Year 1 Syllabus
Course Module 1
The Theory of Psychological-Spiritual Practice (PS1000)
Did you know that there is a link between the psychological and spiritual self, yet they are two different issues?
This module will teach you about the similarities and differences between the psychological and the spiritual. You will learn to recognise psychological issues that might have been labeld as spiritual.
This module is compulsory as it is the fundamental pathway of the intercessor's development to assess their own spiritual and psychological health before interceding on any other person's behalf. Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers. (3 John 1:2 NKJV)
This module also looks at the individual as a whole - the mind, body and spirit - functioning harmoniously.
What can you hope to learn?
You will develop highly valuable intercessory skills to assess individuals who present themselves for spiritual deliverance and be able to assess the situation both from a psychological and spiritual perspective.
The module is assessed by a multi-choice exam and a self-assessment portfolio. Upon completion, a certificate of attendance will be issued to show that you have the relevant understanding of the link between the psychological and the spiritual.
