Over ten years ago, the Lord gave a prophetic friend of mine a profound dream that pointed me back to my life's calling and vocation. In the dream, a Buddhist house of prayer sat atop a Christian house of prayer and dominated it. But then, the Christian house of prayer began to wrestle with the Buddhist house of prayer and began to overpower it. Through this dream, the Lord resoundingly spoke to me and challenged me to "raise up a house of prayer that contends with every other house!"
con·tend - to struggle in oppostion: to contend with the enemy for control
con·tend·er - a competitor for a championship or high honor: a heavyweight title contender
A Contender pledges $20 or more per month
A Middleweight Contender pledges $50 or more per month
A Heavyweight Contender pledges $100 or more per month
Since that time the Justice House of Prayer has been established in strategic locations across America to contend for spiritual breakthrough. We are contending at several “gates” of our nation—the gate of government in Washington, DC, the gates of education at Harvard University and the University of California at San Diego, the gates of finance and culture in New York City, and the gate of justice in Montgomery, AL.
The Lord also spoke to us several years ago and challenged us with this question: “Are you willing to take your intercession into the heart of the plague?”
To this end we have established our JHOPs as close to the “center” as possible. In Boston, our JHOP is just a few blocks from the gates of Harvard Yard. In New York City, JHOP meets in Manhattan across the street from the United Nations headquarters. In Washington, DC, JHOP is just one block from the US Supreme Court and the Capitol.
Each one of these locations has powerful testimonies of great shifts in the spiritual atmosphere since they have been established. The heart and soul of our nation is hanging in the balance in this hour, and the need for unified and targeted intercession has never been greater. I am looking for those that will contend alongside us by pledging a monthly gift of $20.00 or more to help fuel the intercession of JHOP.
Thank you for considering this important pledge.
Contending for a nation,
Lou Engle
