Mankind is destined to be God’s temple—the place of His dwelling and the channel of His operation. This becomes a reality as we submit and align ourselves to Him—both inwardly and outwardly. When we gather as a church in this posture, we become a “House of Prayer”, where His power is revealed and His will is fulfilled.

In this message, “The House of Prayer”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter teaches what it really means to be God’s temple, both individually and collectively. He draws a clear distinction between being a true “house of prayer” and a “den of thieves”, showing how our lives, individually or collectively, can reflect one or the other. 

He further underscores that God releases greater power when we meet collectively than when we are on our own. Finally, he outlines the benefits of becoming a house of prayer and how we must prepare prior to church gatherings in order to partake in the blessings thereof.

Beloved, the Lord has so much on offer for us if we can subject ourselves to Him. May the desire to be surrendered unto God be stirred in you as you listen to this message. Shalom!

Key Scripture: Matthew 21:12-14 (KJV)  

12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, 13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. 14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
