Welcome to the Tri-Cities House of Prayer!
Fellowshipping With God: The Gift of Prayer
God has provided His elect with the gracious gift of fellowshipping with Him intimately---privately, in one's personal prayer closet, and corporately, in gathering together before Him. Praise and worship, intercession, and hearing God speak through His word are all part of the prayer ministry that enables us to commune with God. It is our desire to encourage people to grow in their knowledge of God as they seek His face in prayer.
Responding to God in a Time of Crisis
We are living in times on the earth when crises are escalating all around us. We see the increase of rebellion against God and the breaking in of God's temporal judgments.
It is clear and consistent in Scripture as to what the people of God are supposed to do in a time of crisis.
The prophet Joel prophesies to the nation of Israel in a time of great crisis to "Blow the trumpet...consecrate a fast, call a sacred assembly." Everyone is to gather together, from nursing babes to elders, and turn to the Lord with all their heart, "with fasting, weeping, and mourning" (Joel 2). This is God's prescription when we face trouble. It is simple, yet this prescription is often overlooked, marginalized, and not valued.
We desire to be a people who partner with God on His terms. So, when the nation is in crisis, when we see the tumult of sin and increase of lawlessness, when we recognize the God's hand of discipline, we humble ourselves, pray and seek his face, and turn from our wicked ways. We place our hope in Him and lean heavy on His mercy, believing He will hear from heaven, forgive our sin, and heal our land. (2 Chronicles 7: 13-14)
Pursuing the Knowledge of God
"Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,
And the strength of salvation"
~Isaiah 33:6
There is a famine of the knowledge of God in the land. Even in the church as a whole there is a shallow understanding of who God is and what He is about. The knowledge of God is the number one treasure that we can acquire in the perilous times we live in to help us be prepared for coming days. We also receive direction, clarification of our priorities, and encouragement for our souls when we pursue the knowledge of God. We cannot live without study of God's word coupled with a lifestyle of prayer and fasting. Join us as we "press on to know Him" together!
