About Luke

The International House of Prayer is a missions organization located in Kansas City, Missouri. The heart of the IHOP missions base is the 24/7 prayer room. On September 19, 1999, a prayer meeting began which continues to this day, from dawn to dusk and through the watches of the night, prayer and worship continues twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. For 10 years, ceaseless praise and worship has ascended before God from Kansas City, in the spirit of the Tabernacle of David.

Intercessory Missionaries

It is clear to my wife and I that we are called to the place of prayer and fasting as intercessors. God has set us on the wall of intercession to cry out for justice, and to cry out for His Kingdom to come to the earth as it is in heaven. We will not graduate or be promoted from the place of intercession. We believe that this is our primary, lifelong calling. Throughout history, God has brought forth His purposes on the earth through prayer, using weak men and women like us. (James 5:6-18) We are standing with Christ, our Great High Priest, who ever lives to intercede, to see God finally have a resting place upon the earth. “And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, ‘Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be His people, and God Himself will be with them as their God.’” Revelation 21:3-4
