Ebenezer
The testimony of God in the midst of his people
We are a House of Worship with One purpose :
to worship Jesus Christ and give Him all the glory!
-
Liz and Olly lead Ebenezer House, having responded to a prophetic call to establish Houses of Worship in the nations. They are both passionate worshippers and worship leaders, with a heart to see others equipped and released as worshippers and followers of Jesus

On holiday in Wales a few years back, we stayed opposite a church building - Ebenezer Chapel. This building had been host to part of the Welsh revival in 1905, a gathering place of people hungry for God and His presence. We adopted Ebenezer with that same desire to seek God together and see Him move!
-
Are you hungry for more? Do you long to see God move in power? Are you desperate to see lost souls restored to their maker? Our heart is to create a space where the hungry can be filled, the thirsty find a river, and the broken be restored by the power of God. Worship and fellowship with the Spirit of God are the hot bed, the catalyst, for this kind of transformation. We want it first in our hearts, and from there to see it invade our homes, our towns, and our nation!
Ebenezer translates ‘Stone of Help’ and represents the testimony of God among His people (1 Sam 7:12)
Each one of us is a ‘living stone’ of testimony; testimony of God’s Transformational grace, power and love at work in our lives through His Spirit
As we worship together, an incredible fusion occurs, where our individual testimonies unite to the praise of God’s glorious grace!
What to expect:
-
The Spirit of God is paramount in everything we do. He is our life! When we meet we don’t just seek to welcome Him to be part of what we’re doing, He is the main event! We eagerly desire to move in spiritual-gifts, flow in the power of God, and follow what God wants to do, when He wants to do it
-
We believe the bible is God’s word, that it is God breathed and the ultimate foundation and revelation of God. We also believe God is alive and He speaks TODAY! We therefore seek to follow Paul’s instruction in 1 Corinthians 14:1 to ‘eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially prophecy’. Any prophecy must encourage, build up and strengthen. We are not here to give specific direction or correction. However, we are hungry for the living word of God, His testimony in our midst. Therefore, we honour prophecy and the power of God’s ‘now word’ in our lives
-
We are expectant that our times of meeting with God will release revelation, wisdom and heavens’ strategy, both for those present and also for our immediate location, our region, and our nation. We expect people to come with their questions and receive solutions! Wisdom looks like knowing God and His ways, and then having strategy to implement that knowledge to see the Kingdom come
-
You are made for connection - to walk with God, to hear His voice, feel His embrace, and know His heart - and for this to not remain mere theory, but to know through experience that this is life-changingly true for you! We would call this encounter. The bible is full of life changing encounters with God, and we believe God is desperate to encounter His people TODAY, to see them transformed from glory to glory, and released fully in to His specific call on their lives
-
Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords. His suffering has born our sickness, His Spirit poured out releases His power, His Name drives out every other lesser ruler in our lives. Whether that be patterns of sin, addiction, spiritual strongholds, lies, shame, fear - no weapon formed against us stands in His presence. Therefore we expect our times to be full of healing and miraculous encounter as darkness flees and Jesus fills the room.
