Isaiah 56:7

Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt offering and their sacrifice shall be accepted upon mine altar for mine house shall be called a house of prayer for all people.

Why God's house is called a house of prayer? It is because prayer is the believer's communication with God and He cherishes an intimate fellowship with His people. In God's house there is joy, praise, worship and fellowship with God.

A fervent prayer warrior is in constant communication with God whether praising God, thanking Him, petitioning Him for help and or making intercession to God for someone else. Prayer warriors have strong faith in his/her prayers as the prayer prays from the heart as God looks at the heart and knows the truth.

We as individual believers are encouraged to make our personal house one of prayer as it is often said that a family that prays together stays together. This is true of church in our respective communities.

This reminds me of a Biblical saying where one of the Old Testament saints declared to the world that he and his house were going to serve the Lord. This includes making his house one of prayer.

Making your house one of prayer, Satan cannot penetrate because there is a strong bond between the prayer and God. It is noteworthy to say that all God's children are engage in a spiritual warfare and prayer is part of the conflict as our faith/Christianity is under attack from every direction trying to get believers everywhere to bow down to their god and false ideology.

That said, believers we stand tall and strong from our knees; therefore, pray on because a praying house is one where the Lord resides.
