The House of Life is more than a building, more than a house of prayer! Just as the physical building has been built over the last seven years, so Father God has been revealing and preparing us for the life of the house.
Preparation
At the beginning of the preparation, He started challenging and dismantling some religious mindsets that we had absorbed over the previous thirty years (which can be very uncomfortable by the way) and then He started showing us what the House of Life was not to be!
We knew He wanted the House to be aligned with the “new” that He’s pouring out in this time, and people kept asking us, “So, what is the new?”. The problem was, we didn’t know!
All we knew was that we had to let go of the things we were familiar with and allow Him to lead us and teach us, which often meant starting from the very beginning. He started sowing seeds. We listened to different pioneers in the Body of Christ. Some things resonated. Some did not. But along the way a picture was forming.
Name change
For almost the whole of this time we had called this centre by Auschwitz-Birkenau a House of Prayer, and then in 2024, in the seventh year of building, Father spoke to Mark and told him to stop calling it a House of Prayer, but a House of Life. So, it was named The House of Life!
Here’s what Father God said to Mark:
“Tell my people the destiny I have for Auschwitz-Birkenau. It will become a wellspring of life.” He repeated it 3 times, “My purposes for Auschwitz-Birkenau will stand, it has been decreed in heaven, it will become a wellspring of life”.
He continued, “I am the resurrection and the Life. Everything that lives is connected to Me, it has a measure of My Life in it. Everything that is disconnected or separated from Me is dead and abides in death. Death is the absence of Me, My Life. I am Life, and I am resurrection Life. I bring Life from the dead. Whatever is connected to Me becomes alive, because wherever I am is Life.”
And again, He said, “Auschwitz-Birkenau will become a wellspring of Life, that is its destiny for that is what has been decreed in Heaven. I will make the waste places, the barren places, green. The land will flourish, it will be bursting with life. Rivers of living water will flow through it. It will be a wellspring of life that will water the desert all around. What the enemy tried to destroy I will rebuild. I will build my Kingdom in this place. Auschwitz-Birkenau will become a wellspring of Life for the nations.”
The picture is appearing.
Since that time, Father has started showing us what the “new” looks like. We haven’t got it all, but the seeds are beginning to grow, and a picture is appearing as we continue to wait upon Him.
We know it’s about living from our spirit (that’s our human spirit) rather than from our soul. It is about accessing heaven and governing as Sons of God from heaven downwards. It is about receiving crowns of authority in the heavenly places. It is about walking in heaven’s power to forgive, bless and release, leaving all judgement to the Father. It is about defeating the enemy in the Courts of Heaven and releasing those verdicts on the earth. The angels are delighted and well equipped to implement those verdicts. The days when we go toe to toe with the devil are over! It is about operating from a place of abundance, not a place of lack. It is about His Kingdom government being established on earth; His will being done here as it is done in Heaven!
We believe Father wants to have a transitioning community of believers here, where each one of us is on a journey of discovery, individually and corporately.
We are learning to let go of our agendas and schedules, and for each one of us to spend time with Father, Jesus and Holy Spirit, finding out who we really are and who He has designed us to be!
This House is just one of many places on the earth where Father is releasing this revelation. As each one of us comes into our individual heavenly ordained destiny, the body of Christ will start functioning and governing as the body of Christ on the earth and, who knows, even manifest as the spotless bride!
