Primary Mission The primary mission and first step is to establish the House of Prayer. We believe that through worship, God’s presence will invade and permeate every area of society, bringing justice for His elect (Luke 18:8). Endeavor to function in the spirit of the Tabernacle of David with weekly prayer meetings and live music, singing and intercessory prayer.
Children Who Contend For God Worship music will be the medium through which God will govern the earth. Those who worship God in spirit and in truth will be able to sustain a life in God as the end-time judgments become manifest in the world. Singing God’s Word is a way to sustain a life in Him. God has willed that singing be what causes our hearts to be overwhelmed with God’s love and emotions and causes us to go deeper in the Word of God, thus fulfilling Proverbs 2. Minister to the children through song and teach them to sing as the primary means by which they commune with their Lord (Col 3:16-17 and Eph 5:17-20).
Prayer should not consist of a weekly meeting that lasts for an hour, during which we ask the Lord to bless what we’re doing. Prayer should be a continual and ever-present way of life to cry out for a breaking in of God’s divine presence and asking Him to transform the city, region and country where we live. Prayer and worship will never cease to rise before the throne of God as those who were once orphans but now have a new found heavenly Father become musicians and intercessors who minister to God and give Him the glory due His name. It will take that level of intercession and prayer to dispel the darkness that has permeated these dark regions for thousands of years.
Teach the children to pray. Oh, the delight of raising up children (Psalm 127 & 149) who praise the Lord and contend for the Kingdom of God to be established! Jesus will be glorified 24/7. And, by the grace of God, every tribe of the earth will be represented around the holy throne with the Great Multitude of the redeemed (Revelation 15). The Lord intends for children to play a role in advancing the Kingdom of God, rather than spend all day every day on the playground. While there will always be time for childhood fun, raise up a generation who will cry out for the return of Jesus and contend for His Presence (Acts 4:30) in their country. Model the lifestyle of a hunger for God to the young prayer warriors in the children’s homes, school, church, business and community.
Core Biblical Values A Missions Base’s core biblical values and commitments are: (1) Prayer–intercession, worship, healing, prophesying, etc.; (2) Fasting; and (3) The Great Commission–proclaiming Jesus with power (1 Cor. 2:3-5) as the way to establish His justice in the earth. Open your vision to include equipping and sending intercessory missionaries to your surrounding regions. The Lord needs dedicated intercessors and anointed messengers who labor to see revival in the Church and a great harvest among the lost of the earth.
Healing Rooms Establish healing rooms to contend for the healing God promises in His Word as part of salvation as well as prophecy rooms to encourage and edify the Church through the gift of prophecy. Every Christian has received the same Holy Spirit and is called to comfort, encourage and edify the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 14:3). Additionally, prophecy and healing testimonies are powerful evangelism tools, demonstrating God’s power and love to those who do not yet know Him. Actively reach out to the region’s communities by sending out to minister those who have diligently contended for God’s power to be manifest in these areas.
Israel Be committed to Israel and believe that God will bless those who bless the Jewish people. Regularly and earnestly pray for the peace of Jerusalem and prayerfully and practically support and partner with the “Back to Jerusalem” movement.
Welcome people of all ages to the House of Prayer, but focus on evangelizing and saving the generation of fatherless children, especially those caught in the sex slave trade. The children will become the worship leaders and prayer leaders in the House of Prayer teaching them to gaze on the beauty of the Lord (Psalm 27:4) and fall in love with Jesus. This process will transform their spirits and minds into knowing who their real Father is and that, in spite of their earthly circumstances, His love never fails.
