Fifteen Minute Prayer Retreats

This revival tract is a direct message from the Lord to its author, Professor Fomum, on the distinctive ministry of fasting and its place in the Body of Christ. Every believer can prophesy, but there are some who are called to be prophets. Similarly, every believer can fast and every believer should fast, but there are some who are called apart to the distinctive ministry of fasting. Those who are called to such a ministry have received a special ability from God the Father to fast and they flow out in this way. Read this short message to come to grip with the distinctive capacities to carry out short, medium, long, and very long fasts.

Fifteen minutes is a lot of time! A lot can happen in fifteen minutes. Someone may not be able to find time to pray for one hour in a stretch in the morning, afternoon, or evening. For others, if they found time, they might not know how to use it. Each of these groups of people can use the suggested programme for fifteen-minute retreats that are in the following pages and find their prayer life transformed. We have used the fifteen periods of one minute each since most believers will be able to have enough to talk to the Lord about any topic for one minute, whereas some believers may not have enough to say to the Lord about a topic for three minutes.

Thirty retreats offer wisdom and prayer for those times in life when you need a breather or a challenge. Take five minutes for the scripture, five minutes for reading the reflection, and five minutes for prayerful contemplation, and your fifteen-minute retreat will have you looking at your life and God's movements in the world from a new and refreshed perspective.

The Complete Works of Zacharias Tanee Fomum on Prayer (Volume 1) contains the following books: 1) Retreats for Spiritual Progress 2) The Way of Victorious Praying 3) Praying with Power 4) The Ministry of fasting 5) The Ministry of Praise and Thanksgiving A rousing revolution in the ABC and dynamics of prayer, fasting, and retreats for spiritual progress, this first volume presses the button and sets into motion the series of steps that lead anyone who calls on the name of the Lord, to cry to Him systematically and systemically in an intelligible and intelligent way daily. The books are cohesive and coherent, full of heart-to-heart exchanges between the author, his God, and the reader. By reading through them intently, you can build a loving relationship with the Lord. He is looking for true worshippers and those who worship Him must do so in spirit and in truth (John 4:20-24). You can withdraw constantly, consistently, and conspicuously every day on short and long retreats for spiritual progress in order to pray, read the Word of God, read books on the faith, meet God in Daily Dynamic Encounters with Him, and just relieve, relish, cherish and flourish in His presence. “Retreats for Spiritual Progress” demystifies retreats and makes them a possible, probable, and practical daily reality. You can have four or more retreats for spiritual progress every day without fail of just fifteen minutes each. You can have a 5-month retreat in seclusion like Elizabeth, mother of John the Baptist (Luke 1:24). It could be 40 days like those of Moses, Elijah, and the Lord Jesus Christ. By diligently and earnestly going through this volume, you may resolve to become a person constantly in the presence of the Lord, daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly. “The Way of Victorious Praying” details the ABCs of prayer and fasting and provides practical direction as to how to pray for yourself, your leaders, the saints, the church, the ministry, the work, church planting, and many more. It shows you how to pray daily, record your prayer points in a notebook, fill it up when the prayers are answered, and have convincing proof to show both friend and foe that we have a God who answers prayer.

This book is both an awakening and a reviving manual, with a series of suggested spiritual retreat programmes to guide the beginners. The author, Z.T. Fomum provides an answer to the many questions that Christians often ask themselves, concerning either their own spiritual progress or the spiritual progress of other believers. These questions can be summed up as follows: 1) How do you overcome the tendency to activism which makes agitated believers unable to be calm before God in order to seek Him? 2) How do you know God so that you can serve Him from deep knowledge? 3) In a word, how do you walk from one degree of progress to another in our generation? The author invites us, in response to these many questions, to experience a life of spiritual retreats. That life is a prelude to the great final retreat that the Lord will soon take with His church. Therefore, retreats are presented as a sign of love for the Lord and an activity in preparation for our final retreat with the Lord. Retreats for spiritual progress are to be taken regularly as a way of life. To resolve questions relating to the preparation and planning of a spiritual retreat, the author suggests, as a guide, a series of retreat programmes ranging from 15 minutes to several hours and days. In devising a format for several types of retreats, the author effectively answers the question of what should be done step-by-step during a retreat. You just need to choose the type of retreat you wish to take and just follow the instructions given in the book by the author. This book is both an awakening and a reviving instrument.

"The Complete Works of Zacharias Tanee Fomum on Prayer (Volume 2)” contains the following books: 1) The Art of Intercession 2) The Practice of Intercession 3) Practical Spiritual Warfare Through Prayer 4) Life-Changing Thoughts on Prayer (Volume 1) 5) The Overthrow of Principalities and Powers 6) The Prophecy of the Overthrow of the Satanic Prince of Douala 7) The Prophecy of the Overthrow of the Prince of Cameroon Having left the ABCs of prayer behind, this volume deals with the intricacies of intercession, spiritual warfare, and the overthrow of satanic princes ruling entire nations behind the scenes. It tackles both the art and practice of intercession. Simply put, intercession is both the art and practice by a righteous, blameless, and absolutely consecrated person, to accept, stand in the gap, and defend a person or people that God has targeted for destruction due to their brazen and sustained violation of His will. The Lord’s response to Moses’ intercession and entreaty for the children of Israel was swift and dramatic. The Bible says, “Then the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened”(Exodus 32:14). That was intercession in both its art and practice. So many advanced believers in Christ don’t even believe that satanic princes exist. They exist. They are so real, so devastating in their work and so strangulating in their grip of people and their affairs, that you can only ignore them to your own undoing. Daniel battled these satanic princes all his adult life in exile in the Babylonian, Persian, and Median realms. He did so through strategic, prevailing, and sustained prayer and fasting (Daniel 10:1-21; 11:1). He battled in prayer and fasting until the satanic princes of Persia and Greece, which were opposing God’s purposes, were overcame, overturned, and overthrown. We send this second prayer volume out with a cry to the Lord that He should use it to teach the church of the Firstborn the intricacies of intercession and spiritual warfare. In this age of atheism, agnosticism, humanism, espionage, robots, sophisticated gadgets, and the Internet, there was never a time we needed intercession and spiritual warfare like now.

The do-it-yourself appeal which is somewhat popular today is not just a fad. It meets the basic need in man to be creative. This DO-IT-YOURSELF RETREAT makes the same appeal to your highest creative instincts. However, in this case, you are shown not how to make some thing, but HOW TO BRING OUT THE REAL GOOD IN YOU and make yourself into the truly great person that God intended you to be. These pages will help you to discover who you really are, and the discovery will prove to be encouraging and consoling. Although you are doing-it-yourself, this retreat follows a time-tested and approved method. It is progressive. Step by step it helps you to bring out the potential for all the goodness and greatness which is present in you. You are also following a mystery story—these are God’s mysteries—so you do not peek at the chapters ahead. One step at a time is best, and God be with you on the way. This book is for... Those who have never made a retreat, and those to whom the word may sound strange or even forbidding. I think you will like it, and though you start it as an experiment, you may find it so interesting and worthwhile that you will want the fuller and richer experience at a retreat house. Those who would like to make a closed retreat but cannot, especially God’s beloved sick and suffering and those in the evening of life. Those who have made a retreat and who would like to retain the clarity of vision and the peace of soul it gave them. Husbands and wives who would like to make a retreat at home, either together or individually. It can help to oneness in outlook. Finally, but finally only for emphasis, this book is for students who are making an open retreat and want a companion book—collateral reading—to keep them in the spirit of the retreat.
