IHOP Atlanta

Open the Gates.. So the King of Glory May Come In!

About Me

International House of Prayer Atlanta The central facet of the IHOP-ATLANTA Missions Base is the vision of the International House of Prayer as a 24-hour a day Prayer Furnace for the city of Atlanta. The Missions Base in Atlanta is committed to developing forerunners committed to prayer, fasting, and the Great Commission.
The Missions Base is currently adding staff that have raised their own support and given their lives to wholehearted passion for Jesus expressed in extravagant devotion. In spite of the reality of their own human weakness, with hearts that are rooted and grounded in love, these missionaries ask the Lord to move upon hearts, change the atmosphere of the city, and turn the nations of the earth to Jesus.
The Prayer Room of IHOP-Atlanta is the heartbeat of all that goes on at the IHOP-ATLANTA Missions Base. IHOP-ATL is a ministry serving the entire Metro Atlanta area. The prayer room opened October 11th, 2004, and is designed for any person or group desiring to come and worship and pray individually and/or corporately. Structured in multiple two-hour prayer meetings a week, teams of musicians, singers, and intercessors lift their voices in praise and supplication, asking God to fulfill His promise and give the nations of the earth to Jesus as His inheritance. Each prayer meeting functions with live worship teams in one of four formats including devotional worship, prophetic worship, worship with the word or apostolic intercession with fasting for corporate breakthrough, city transformation, and revelation of Jesus Christ in the earth.Why 24/7 worship and prayer?Jesus said the harvest is plentiful, so his disciples should pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers. When our hearts deeply experience the love of God in the place of worship and intercession, we are strengthened and empowered to give ourselves to the labor of the work of the Kingdom with greater diligence, authority and power.
24/7 worship and prayer will change the spiritual atmosphere of the city, thus opening the heavens for more anointed and effective evangelism to the lost and unity in the Church. We believe that the Holy Spirit is orchestrating a global prayer strategy far eclipsing any other prayer movement in history resulting in an unprecedented harvest of souls throughout the earth. 8 Facets
24/7 Harp & Bowl Worship & Intercession - A 24-hour, citywide prayer ministry, serving the body of Christ in the region fashioned in the spirit of the Tabernacle of David. The focus is to rend the heavens over the region so that Glory of God can invade every facet of the society inside and outside the church, breeding revival in the church and reformation in the world.
Internships - Multiple intensive discipleship programs that focus on 18-25 year olds who desire to intimately know the fullness of the love, power and character of God. Training includes classroom instruction, personal discipleship and hands-on ministry with blocks of time spent in the prayer room.
Encounter Services - Weekly God encounters designed to demonstrate the power of God to the lost as well as equip the believer in passion for Jesus. Each meeting is designed to be a heaven opening event in which the direction of the Holy Spirit is esteemed and reverenced.
Fasting Teams - Staff members and interns live lifestyles of prayer and fasting. Everyday of the year is to be covered in prayer and fasting by different teams. Night and day prayer empowered through lifestyles of fasting enables believers to experience the reality of the kingdom come on earth.
Prophetic Teams - Gifted teams who specialize in prophetic evangelism as well as prophetic ministry to the body of Christ. Ministering by the unction of the Holy Spirit, God is glorified and people are edified through accurate and properly administered prophetic revelation.
Outreach Teams - Teams bring the power of God to the public, locally and internationally, by sharing the message of the love of God accompanied by healing, signs, wonders and miracles. Outreach to the poor and needy is at the center of the heart of the Lord.
Intercessory Missionaries - Part-time and full-time, volunteer staff positions. Each staff member goes through an application process of approval. Staff will spend a percentage of time in the prayer room. The remainder of their time will be spent in ministry and administrative functions.

My Interests

Shifting Spiritual Climates… Igniting Revival in the Church …and Awakening in the WorldThe IHOP-ATLANTA Mission Base is a developing, multi-faceted, mission base serving the Body of Christ throughout Metro Atlanta. It will be staffed with intercessory missionaries who are committed to prayer, fasting and evangelism in order to shift the spiritual climate over Atlanta, the Southeast and the Nation.

Each mission department is geared to cause individuals to soar in their relationship with God through the reality of the knowledge of God unto kingdom revelation and manifestation. The IHOP-ATLANTA Missions Base is committed to:

Apostolic Living - Holy Spirit empowered lives of New Testament authenticity, incorporating training and planting with a father's heart, bringing manifestations of the Holy Spirit and breakthrough in regions to establish the kingdom of God

Fasted Lifestyle - A conviction of character and conduct in simplicity and sacrifice; a lifestyle of sincerity that embodies total fascination with Jesus Christ as the great reward of this life

Unity in Diversity - living in true fellowship in and through the Holy Spirit including diverse cultures and socio-economic backgrounds

Passion for Jesus - living lifestyles as lovesick worshippers in all we do and reflecting the Love of the Bridegroom to others

Just as John the Baptist was a forerunner for Jesus, “preparing the way and making straight the path”, the Holy Spirit is raising up an entire generation of people all across the planet through a worship and prayer movement who, like John, will prepare the way through fulfilling the Great Commission for the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus.

I'd like to meet:

YOUNG ADULT DAY TIME INTERNSHIPS


The Pursuit Internship

The Pursuit Internship is designed as a time to set oneself apart from the rigors of daily life and be given fully to pursuing the knowledge of the Lord. This internship is an intense, three-month season of consecration tailored to young adults who have an ache in their soul to know the deep emotions of the Living God. The Pursuit provides the perfect environment for any 18-25 year-old hungering after a more satisfying way of life and thirsting for true intimacy with Jesus. In light of the times, there is no wiser course than investing a season of one's life as an offering of love in pursuit of God.God desires to call you by name and mark you for eternity. He desires to pursue you with greater intensity than you could ever pursue Him. Our desire is to provide a context for young adults, those with hunger for God and a passion to know Him intimately, to be equipped and released into a relationship with God that consumes. Ultimately, we are made to know God through encounter and The Pursuit is designed to bring experience in concert with instruction. When both successfully come together we are introduced to a God that is beyond our imaginations.This program exists to immerse 18 - 25 year-olds in the knowledge of God; to provide an environment of intense intimacy with this uncreated Father who desires to fascinate His children with His beauty and to equip lovesick hearts to pursue this holy, passionate God they will encounter in prayer.For more information on an upcoming internship visit www.ihop-atlanta.com

Heroes:

Anna the Prophetess: Luke 2:36-38 Now there was one, Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity; and this woman was a widow of about eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day. And coming in that instant she gave thanks to the Lord, and spoke of Him to all those who looked for redemption in Jerusalem.
King David: Psalms 27:4 One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in His temple.
John The Baptist: Luke 3:3-6 And he went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins, Luk 3:4 as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: prepare the way of the LORD; make His paths straight. Every valley shall be filled and every mountain and hill brought low; the crooked places shall be made straight and the rough ways smooth; and all flesh shall see the salvation of God."
Joseph: Genesis 45:4-7 And Joseph said to his brothers, "Please come near to me." So they came near. Then he said: "I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt. But now, do not therefore be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life. For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting. And God sent me before you to preserve a posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
