Funding the House of Prayer Montag, Apr 21 2008

To build the House of Prayer we need people and ressources.
The biggest need for the church nowadays is prayer. We have no other way to get to know God, to spread the Word of God and no other way to prepare the church for Jesus´return.

I want to ask everyone to consider funding the House of prayer through either partnering with ZHOP directly or through funding me personally – through funding me you also fund other intercessory missonaries.
It is truly an investment in something that lasts until Jesus returns. There is no widespread revelation about the reality of the fact that Jesus will return and we have to be ready – especially in the western church. I can see a lot of lives being transformed through vistig ZHOP on a regular basis or visting for conferences. People come from all over the east coast of America. God uses ZHOP to encourage other Houses of Prayer world wide and to speak the Word of God in the earth. We pray and worship Jesus day and night.

I want to say without shame that if you sow finances in the house of prayer you invest your money in a wise way.
You can subscribe for the „partners program“ on the ZHOP webpage through www.zhop.org
Or you can send checks directly to me:

Also you can pray for us, to be strong in our hearts and persevering to keep the flame burning in our hearts before God to keep building the House of Prayer.

You might not be in a House of Prayer, but we have the same mission! Preparing a bride for Jesus and be watching (praying) and waiting until He returns. It is a challenge for us to have our inner man awake no matter where we are!! The spirit of the world tries to snatch everyone.
Thank you for reading this blog and showing interest in the things God does. We have to be watching and waiting.
„May the Lord bless you and keep you and make His face shine upon you.“
HE longs for people to hear Him calling out for truth and righteousness.

There is much scriptural evidence why it is important to build the House of Prayer and about the importance of a praying people of God.

But first I want to talk right from my heart and of what God and the time I have spent in the House of prayer imprinted on my heart.

Prayer is the way for us to talk to God and agree with His desire and worship is the place where our hearts express His goodness and faithfulness over and over again. This is what we do in the House of Prayer, so we really try to build a home for God Himself where He can meet with His children and where His presence builds up our faith in Him.

It is beautiful when believers come together and agree about what we know who God is – He likes to hear that and we like to say it!

Also I realized how important it is to raise up a voice as believers. We have to rasie our voice and be louder than the voices that try to lie about the character of God. We have to have a voice for the truth and righteousness.

Now I want to mention some scriptures that define the House of Prayer from times of old and help us find the roots of our faith.
Jesus quotes in Matthew21:13 : „It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of thieves.’“

And also in Isaiah it talks about the House of prayer there it even talks about it in cotext of the salvation of the Gentiles: „Even them I will bring to My holy mountain, And make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices Will be accepted on My altar; For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.“ Isa 56:7

So building the House of prayer is directly linked to the knowledge of God being revealed to the Gentiles! You can read that also in Acts 15:16 „After this I will return And will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down; I will rebuild its ruins, And I will set it up;

So that the rest of mankind may seek the LORD, Even all the Gentiles who are called by My

name, Says the LORD who does all these things.“

The tabernacle of David was a place where the arc of the covenant was sourrounded by a group of priests who where singing Psalms to God and playing instruments. They were worshipping and praising Him day and night.

This is the model after which we build the Zadok House of Prayer near Charlotte, NC.

We worship, praise and pray night and day for all mankind to be able to know the Lord and meet Him in this place.
