National House of Prayer — Nov 14, 2025

Friday, November 14, 2025

I’m excited to share some incredible news that represents both a step of faith and a commitment to continue empowering the nation to pray for our government leaders.

By God’s provision and your faithful support, we’ve taken an important step forward: hiring two new staff members to our team. This decision reflects the growing need for more hands to help us disciple and equip people in the vital work of prayer for our leaders.

Why This Step of Faith Matters

For years, we’ve taught and encouraged people to pray for our government leaders—standing in the gap for those in authority and asking God for wisdom, justice, and mercy. We believe prayer can move God’s heart and shape the decisions of our leaders.

As our reach and impact have grown, we’ve reached a point where we cannot move forward without more help. We need additional support to equip and mobilize more people to take up the call of prayer - for our leaders, our nation, and for Israel.

Meet Our New Team Members

Brad Fidler - leading our Schools of Prayer and upcoming NHOP Podcast

Paul Primus - developing The Canopy of Prayer

These two bring experience, passion, and a deep commitment to prayer. With their help, we will expand programs, reach more people across the nation, and train individuals to pray effectively for government leaders, our nation, and for Israel.

We could not do this work without faithful partners. If you are not yet a partner, I encourage you to consider joining us. The cost of four cups of coffee a week could go a long way toward discipling a nation in prayer, advocating for Israel, and building stronger relationships with the Jewish community.

How Best to Support National House of Prayer

• Pray for our new staff: wisdom, strength, and guidance as they lead the charge in teaching and mobilizing prayer.

This hiring decision is a bold step of faith. We believe God has brought us to this point, and with your continued support, we will see even greater fruit in discipling this nation to pray for our leaders, Israel, and the Jewish community.

Thank you for your ongoing commitment to this mission. Your prayers and support are the backbone of everything we do, and we are so grateful to have you as part of this journey.
