Why the House of Prayer in Skopje?

Jesus is growing His praying people across the Balkans.

 

The House of Prayer in Macedonia is not a local church, but a ministry that exists (1) to bless the Lord in prayer and worship, and (2) serve the local church in becoming “a house of prayer” (Matthew 21:13) in blessing the nation. Every one of us individually was created to talk with God, and live with a thankful and worshiping heart. How much better when we do these things together! (Psalm 133:1)

It is clear from the history that every revival came as a result of people coming together in unity, humility and brokenness before God to simply worship Him and seek His face. This move of God is something that believers across Macedonia and the Balkans have prayed for over many decades. We stand with many others calling out that God would heal and unite His people. This is a prayer that He promises He will answer! (2 Chronicles 7:14)

Vision

As the House of Prayer in Skopje, Macedonia (MAKHOP), our main desire is to minister to God’s heart by standing before His presence to worship and exalt Him. We do this simply because He is worthy of our praises, worthy of our devotion, and worthy of our time.

It is our desire that of the place of intimacy in worshiping God, that we will encounter and partner with Him through prayer and intercession according to the desires of His heart and His Word.

As we worship and pray, we grow in knowing the heart of our loving Father so that we are equipped, overflowing with His love and compassion to go out and minister to the people around us according to the gifts that God has given us and according to the place of ministry He has placed us to be.

Mission

The House of Prayer in Skopje, Macedonia (MAKHOP) facilitates a place where everyone can come and spend time in God’s presence, in an atmosphere of worship and prayer, centered around the Word of God.

MAKHOP serves as a House of Prayer for the whole city of Skopje and the nation of Macedonia and in that way be a blessing for every believer, church, Christian organization and the whole country.

At the same time we look to encourage and resource every church/organization to become house of prayer/prayer room in themselves by finding and establishing their own suitable way of expression of worship and prayer and in that way minister to God’s heart so that out of that place we all will be strengthened and equipped to do the mission that God has called us to do.
