Strongholds and God's Truth

Strongholds and God’s Truth: Rooted, Resilient, and Ready

Course Description

This course is designed to help believers understand the concept of strongholds—both negative and godly—and how they shape spiritual life, resilience, and relationship with Christ. Negative strongholds, such as fear, doubt, pride, or unhealthy patterns, can hinder spiritual growth and keep individuals from experiencing the fullness of God’s presence. In contrast, Scripture calls us to make the Lord our stronghold, as declared in Psalm 18:1-2, where God is described as our rock, fortress, and deliverer. Through biblical teaching, reflection, and practical application, participants will learn how to identify and break free from destructive strongholds while embracing God’s truth as the foundation for strength, resilience, and readiness to face life’s challenges.
