I cannot confrim or deny what is happening in KC; but, I recieved this email from Mike Bickle tonight… if you are near IHOP of just want to go jump in the river here you go!

A short overview of what is happening at IHOP for a few leaders in light of inquiries and phone calls about what the Holy Spirit is doing at IHOP

On November 4, on the last day of IHOP’s monthly Global Bridegroom Fast, a move of the Holy Spirit began to stir during IHOPU’s student chapel as students testified of receiving deliverance from self-hatred, shame, and depression. Students began to experience supernatural joy at the revelation of God’s love for them. A powerful spirit of joy rested on many the next day at the IHOPU student-led 6am prayer meeting and the Spirit continued to move throughout the week in our classes and during the faculty meetings. 

Then, on November 11, at a 9am class of first year students, the Spirit continued to move with physical healings and deliverance with a spirit of joy. That class on November 11 continued for more than 15 hours. The word spread quickly and over 2,000 people spontaneously gathered to the auditorium from all over the Kansas City area as deliverance and physical healings increased. The meeting continued well past midnight. The leadership of IHOPU recognized that the Spirit was moving and therefore, they canceled all classes for the next few days so that we could gather to receive all that the Spirit wanted to do.

We recognize the Holy Spirit is awakening our students and many others. In each of these meetings, many people are being set free from addictions, shame, depression, demonic activity, and every sort of emotional pain. We are also witnessing an increase of physical healings, as God is touching and restoring bodies inside the building as well as those watching via webstream. Moreover, we greatly rejoice as we are seeing lost souls being added to the Kingdom of God during these meetings. We are also receiving many testimonies and reports that this move of the Spirit is spreading to other churches and prayer rooms that are joining with us each night via the webstream.

What started during our IHOPU student chapel on November 4 continues until today. Visitors are pouring in from many places with some driving over 1,200 miles overnight to participate in these meetings. Consequently, we have moved the Prayer Room to our FSM sanctuary from 6pm to midnight each night from November 12 to 22. We will continue to extend these nightly meetings beyond this as the Holy Spirit leads us. We earnestly pray that the spiritual awakening will continue as our nation is in a desperate need for another great awakening in this hour.

Throughout history, college and university campuses in our nation have been an epicenter and a catalyst for spiritual awakening. From the 1700s onward, our nation has witnessed multiple moves of the Holy Spirit that have touched and awakened students on college campuses, including Princeton University, Yale University, Asbury College, Wheaton College, and more than a dozen other college campuses. These spiritual awakenings often progressed beyond the campuses and resulted in a great number of souls being added to the Kingdom of God. History also attests to a strong correlation between spiritual awakening and missionary movements. We pray that this spiritual awakening that is touching IHOPU and the rest of our IHOP Missions Base will break out all over our nation in different cities.

  1. Great stuff… I’d like to head out there now for a bit. One of the guys I discipled in Nicaragua earlier this year is a student at IHOP KC. I’ll ask him about this to hear from the student perspective as well.
