A CityOf God
A place where Heaven touches Earth and God's will is done in cities around the world.
Let God Do What He Wants To Do
The foundation of A City Of God is simple: to allow God complete freedom to accomplish His will through surrendered lives.
"Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does." — John 5:19
Jesus demonstrated this perfectly. He laid aside His own will so the Father could work through Him. The call upon every believer remains the same today. We are the body of Christ and He is the Head. Our purpose is not to build our own kingdom, but to become yielded vessels through which God can move.
Making Room For God
Much of the modern church has become governed by schedules, programs, and time constraints. Yet God is eternal.
A City Of God exists to create space where God is welcomed, heard, and obeyed. We desire gatherings where the Holy Spirit is free to move without being restricted by a clock. The church in this fast-paced generation has forgotten we are eternal beings. At A City Of God, we are on purpose wanting God to have His way. No clock will be telling us when it's time to stop.
This is not disorder. It is deliberate surrender.
"The church today has become a place where God is standing at the door and knocking. We are on purpose wanting God to have His way."
The Vision of A City Of GodSuggested:
People praying through the night · Candle vigils · Quiet waiting on God
A House of Continuous Prayer
Prayer is not an event. Prayer is the lifeblood of God's people.
A City Of God envisions a culture of ongoing prayer where believers can come and go throughout the day and night, creating a continual offering before the Lord. Prayer will continue on a 24/7 basis, where people are free to come and go as their lives permit. Together we create a place where Heaven continually has a voice on Earth. People have jobs, families, and responsibilities — yet together, we create a place where Heaven continually has a voice on Earth.
The People Are The City
A City Of God is not a building. It is not a ministry center. It is not a church service.
A City Of God is a people united around a common vision: bringing the reality of Heaven into every sphere of society. The vision is not escape from the world. The vision is transformation of the world through the life of Jesus Christ expressed through His people. We are here to become the body of Jesus Christ — the glorious church, the church Jesus is coming for, to rule and reign in the millennial age.

Becoming The Bride Christ Is Returning For
The goal is not survival. The goal is maturity.
Jesus is preparing a glorious Church that reflects His character, carries His authority, and demonstrates His love. A City Of God seeks to participate in that preparation through discipleship, prayer, worship, obedience, and Kingdom living.
Suggested:
Diverse congregation worshipping · Wide-angle church gathering
Establishing Kingdom Hubs
How does this vision become reality? It begins with surrendered lives.
From surrendered lives emerge Kingdom communities. From Kingdom communities emerge places where Heaven and Earth intersect. The vision is to establish City Of God hubs in cities around the world — places dedicated to worship, prayer, discipleship, community transformation, and Kingdom advancement.
Portals Between Heaven And Earth
Jacob saw a ladder connecting Heaven and Earth with angels ascending and descending.
We believe God still desires places where His presence is welcomed and His activity becomes evident among His people. We are looking to create portals in cities around the world where we can ascend and descend just like Jacob saw. The goal is not the pursuit of experiences. The goal is intimacy with God. When His presence fills a place, lives are transformed, communities are impacted, and Jesus is glorified.

"God often confirms vision through encounters."
The Little Church In Denton is a real-life example of what happens when a place becomes fully dedicated to prayer and the presence of God.
Access To God's Presence
I spent a whole year living adjacent to this amazing small church in Denton. My friend gave me keys — permission to go at any time of the day or night to spend time with God. This place was a portal straight up to heaven.
Revival Preparation
The night before the revival meetings, the prayer was intense and full of God's glory. His presence was so thick you could feel Him. The Holy Spirit came on me three times, each session lasting 90 minutes — something I had never experienced before.
The Open Portal
After the meeting the portal in this place was fully open. For a four-month period I would go there every night and pray for hours without effort. The presence of God was beyond words at times — like He is touching your skin.

Join The Vision
God is raising up surrendered sons and daughters who will say: "Not my will, but Yours be done."
A City Of God is an invitation to become part of a people who desire God's presence above all else — and who long to see Heaven touch Earth in cities around the world.
