Bread Oven Inauguration

May 11, 2023

Bread Oven Inauguration - There was a vision of bread baking ovens and giving out fresh bread both in the Spirit and actual literal bread. The vision is now a reality! The capacity of the ovens is a thousand loaves of bread a day. The ovens are currently being used for outreach and distribution weekly. We are looking in the future to build more ovens and train others how to use these ovens as a micro business.

Isaiah 62 Fast

May 7, 2023

We committed to praying and fasting for 21 days for Israel, May 7-28, and for God to raise up intercessors for Israel. Our house of prayer was very involved, and we committed to praying together at least 1 hour each day. We also did a short training on Israel at the Future University prior to the fast.

Bread Of Heaven Song

September 12, 2022

The Lord gave us a spontaneous song about Jesus being the bread who came down from Heaven. The night before this, one of our intercessors had a dream where she was looking for where she can buy fresh bread, and then that morning Heidi began to share out of John 6 about Jesus being the bread of life and felt that the Lord wanted to give us a song. The Spirit of the Lord touched the worship team and a new song was birthed that day.
