Breakthrough Weekend

Breakthrough Weekend: A Transformational Journey

Breakthrough Weekend (BTW) is an integral part of Covenant EFC’s disciplemaking journey. It is one of the key platforms by which we encounter God and experience His life-changing power upon our lives. 

Come Away with God

To encounter God, we must intentionally set aside an extended time and space to be with Him. Being out of our usual routine and surroundings helps us focus on God. In such an environment, we are able seek God more purposefully, soak in His presence, hear His timely Word through the Scriptures, listen to His Spirit’s prompting and enjoy the spiritual community He has specially gathered for us. We enjoy the presence of God in silence and solitude, in prayer and worship.

Journey with Community

The discipleship journey is best lived out in a safe place within our spiritual community. Here, we can experience the freedom of being authentic, accepting and encouraging to one another and cultivating an empowering accountability as we share our lives together.  At BTWs, we adhere to strict guidelines of confidentiality and avoid judging one another or presumptuously attempting to solve one another’s problems.

Programme

There are three kinds of Breakthrough Weekend: Men’s Breakthrough Weekend (MBTW), Women’s Breakthrough Weekend (WBTW) and Marriage Breakthrough Weekend (MgBTW). In each of these platforms, there are allotted times for hearing God’s word in season for the participants, personal devotion, silence and solitude, worship, prayer, ministry and small group discussion times.

Experience Breakthrough

Breakthrough happens when we allow God to break into our lives and we break with what binds and blinds us. So we invite Covenanters to make that space to encounter Him at the next Breakthrough Weekend.

Men’s Breakthrough Weekend: 1-3 Dec
Women’s Breakthrough Weekend: 24-26 Nov
Marriage Breakthrough Weekend: 1-3 Dec

Breakthrough Weekends are open to Covenanters only. Find more details here.

The One with Supreme Authority

Observation:

Why did Jesus say to His disciples, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me” (v.18)?

Deeper Reflection
Verse 18 could be said to be the central premise of Christian discipleship and disciplemaking: “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me [i.e. Jesus].” Jesus’ authority is clearly in focus when we read the accounts of His teaching and miracles. For example, when Jesus taught the crowds about God’s Kingdom and its radical righteousness (Matt 5-7; 7:28-29), healed a man of paralysis and terrible pain (Matt 8:5-10, 13), stilled a great windstorm out at sea (Matt 8:23-27), cast out many demons from two men (Matt 8:28-32) and forgave a paralytic’s sins (Matt 9:1-8).“All authority in heaven and on earth” means that Jesus’ authority is supreme and all-encompassing. There is no realm of creation nor sphere of life that lies outside of His authority. Whoever has the highest authority has the final say. The words of the One who has the final say must count the most in any major decision that we make. For a Christian, the Lord Jesus has the final say in all of one’s major life questions about meaning, purpose and direction.Based on His authority, Jesus gave the Great Commission to all His disciples in every nation and generation, commanding them to “make disciples of all nations” (vv.19-20). As such, we are to respond in reverent fear and obedience to Jesus. At the same time, we can walk in full confidence as we go about doing our part in fulfilling the divine mandate, strengthened and comforted by the fact that Jesus is always with us by His Spirit until His Second Coming when we will see Him face to face.
Application:

How does the fact that Jesus has “all authority in heaven and on earth” affect the way I receive His commands and the way I conduct my life?

Prayer:
Write a prayer to God as your response from your meditation on and application of the Scriptures.
Prayer Pointers:
  • Give thanks and praise
  • Pray for pastors and staff: To follow and obey Jesus Christ as their ultimate leader and the Head of the Church, so that their lives and works will bring glory to God alone
  • Pray for significant people
  • Pray for those in need
  • Pray for self
