Noble Woman’s Vision Conference
This 2 1/2 day conference is for women who desire intimacy with God, who are yearning for wholeness and fullness in Christ and willing to take ground for God’s Kingdom.
The theme of this year’s conference is “A Gracious Woman Retains Honor.”
The strategy is to discover the deeper truths of:
- Relating Rightly to God and Others to Take Ground Back from the Enemy
- Positioned Rightly Before The Lord to Maintain Your Ground
- Clothed Rightly in Humility, with the Garment of Praise, and Good Works to Enlarge Your Ground
What Will I Learn?
How to be a noble woman of vision. Through a series of presentations, guided exercises, hands-on experiences and small group discussions, you will learn the fundamentals of strengthening your relationships with God, your spouse , your children and those He has given you to disciple. Topics include:
- You will discover Whose you are – the names and character of God as you go through difficult seasons of life. Do you judge God by your circumstances or judge your circumstances by the knowledge of God? “Those who know the name of the Lord put their trust in Him.” Psalm 9:10
- You will discover who you are – and how to acknowledge every good thing that is in you in Christ Jesus. What you tell yourself about who you are has a greater impact upon you than the opinions of others. What are you relating to yourself about who you are? If you have forgotten or never discovered who you are due to the fact that you have been trying to please others, then this will be a time of renewal and discovery. “She who speaks truth in her heart shall be able to ascend God’s holy hill and enjoy His presence.” (See Psalm 15:2 & 16:11)
- Understand the priority relationships of a noble woman and whom she is called to serve – Discover the priority of your marriage, discipling your children, developing your home into a ministry center, and discipling other women. You will gain a clear understanding of the vital few things that matter most in your relationships so you can avoid the many trivial things that rob you of time and energy. Jesus manifested God’s image to those the Father gave Him. (John 17:4-6)
- The Power of Fasting: According to Isaiah 58, fasting is a discipline that will open the window of God’s power for breakthrough anointing. Learn how to develop the discipline of fasting which will break the bonds that are holding your family back and release them to receive God’s blessing and inheritance. At the conference, you will have the opportunity to practice the discipline of fasting for a meal or a day.
- The Blessing and Your Noble Identity: All of our actions flow from who we are. One of the reasons God gave us a memory is so we can remember who we are when we awaken each day and have our actions consistent with that identity. Think of what it would be like to be reminded every day of your Noble Identity, so that you can act consistently Christ-like day by day.
- How to make an appeal to your husband – Do you have difficulty in approaching your husband in a way that makes him willing to talk? This session will help you be a woman of good understanding and influence.
In addition to the prepared topics, you will have time to ask questions and spark discussions with other ladies.
“Anne’s coaching saved my marriage because I learned how to become a woman of prayer, to bless and appreciate my husband, and dare to have faith to overcome my fears.”
–A wife from Texas
Who Is It For?
