Addiction Conference
Addiction Conference
Addiction has been a tool the enemy is using to destroy our generation and it is a worry in all spectrums of life irrespective of their age. Drug addiction is a chronic and relapsing brain disease that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by the compulsive use of substances despite their harmful effects on an individual’s physical and mental health, relationships, and overall well-being.
While there is a spiritual component to addiction, addiction also has a physical component that classifies it as a disease “So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves.” Galatians 5:16
The Lord Jesus delivered most of us from addiction and the Lord instructed us to organize addiction conferences in villages, towns, cities, and schools. Addiction is killing most of our youth so as we teach, we also share our experiences.
Drug addiction is a complex and challenging condition, but it is not impossible to overcome. With the right treatment, support, and mindset, individuals can recover from drug addiction and go on to lead healthy, fulfilling lives.
Many individuals are wondering when and how they can overcome their challenges. Every July, we host an annual addiction conference in Accra, Ghana, which attracts people from all walks of life and is dubbed, ‘’Breaking Chains’ By the grace of God, our annual addiction conferences have had a significant impact, transforming the lives of many youths. To God be the glory, as the Lord has delivered some of these young adults from various addictions, including sexual and drug addictions, among others.
