WELCOME TO JAFFA GATE MINISTRIES WEB-SITE.
Jaffa Gate Ministries is a Christ-Centered non-profit 501[c]3.
Glad you came by for a visit.We look forward to meeting you in person.


We are a primitive prayer retreat.A soaking place for worshippers in Jesus wanting to get in His
Presence for a closer intimate relationship.If you are looking for a structure there is none.The place
we have set aside for prayer & worship is open air & invisible fashioned after Revelations 21:22-27,
"The G-d Almighty & the Lamb are its temple".

We are a 24/7 prayer connection;

We are a hospitality place for traveling prophetic music minister friends we know.

Our purpose is to be Y'shua's vessel, to pour out what He has poured into us
with the purpose to see EVERY member of The Body of Christ,[red,yellow,black & white] 
become one & whole in EVERY area of our lives
by allowing the Holy Spirit to do His work in us from the inside out.
We are a part of the Church at large--extended family-- & our main covering is the 
L-rd Y'shua, The Christ Himself;J E S U S 

We are a bridge connecting believers to believers & Ministries to Ministries.

 
We worship in Spirit & in Truth.
[JOHN 4:12,19-26].
We keep the feasts that are to be kept "forever"Lev 23:41.
HOWEVER:we keep them the New Covenant Way, New Testament Way,
under GRACE, in 
Spirit & Truth, and not back under the law of
Abraham by rituals & man-made temporary rules before Christ took their place, that only
lead to arguments & divisions. 
We celebrate the 
feasts and a Sabbath Day of rest by Freedom In
Christ.He said in 
the New Testament that He did not come to do
away with the law but to 
fulfill it. Mt 5:17 
However, in Galatians 5:1-26 we are instructed to stay Free
In 
Christ.

And to love one another.

You can know Jesus by HIS Fruit;
Gal 5:15 "If you keep on biting and devouring each other,
watch out or 
you will be destroyed by each other."
1 Tim 2:8:"I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer,
without anger or disputing."
Gal 6:2 "Carry each other's burdens,and in this way you will fulfill
the 
law of Christ".
1 Cor 16:13-18 Do everything in love,devote yourself to service of
the 
Saints,join in the work and labor.

These are Truths we choose to believe and try and live by in our
personal lives.


We are outside of Murphy NC,formerly Huntersville, on the
NC/TN/GA border,home to the Creek and Natchez in 1735.
We are called to break up dry cracked ground & plow,plant
& water in the spirit realm through prayer & worship. 

The devil comes to kill, steal,and destroy but Jesus came
to give 
LIFE and life more abundantly.His gifts are love & peace,
kindness,
gentleness,faith working in & flowing out continually
in our lives unconditionally...and not heavy yokes of bondage,
manipulation,control, 
hatred,murder,stealing,lies,addictions,
disease,divisions,arguments and self-serving
& self- pleasures...
We can know The Holy Spirit verses the evil one by watching & following
after these manifestations mentioned.
Lets renew our minds & set our minds on G-d & HIS Kingdom way of
thinking & doing & speaking & being.

Christ says in His Word that His road is narrow and few take it but many 
people are deceived and take the easy wide road that leads to destruction 
and He talks about the [spiritually] blind leading the [spiritually] blind 
into the ditch & about wolves in sheep clothing & calling evil good & good 
evil...
Meditate on His Word and stay in His Presence through worship
& an obedient pure lifestyle day by day.

We believe in the Trinity/One Creator known by many Names;
Father,Son,Y'shua,Jesus Christ,The Waymaker and The Holy Spirit...
Not 1 plus 1 plus 1 equals three G-ds but rather 1 times 1 times 1 equals
One G-d.
We all have a body[1] and a mind[2] and a spirit[3] but
we are not 3 people but 
1 person made in His Image & for His
Pleasure we were all created.Only we are born into sinful.He is without sin.

 [Call ahead for a reservation 828 494 9404].

To get a better understanding of what our ministry calling is,take the time to read Dick Eastman's 
Trilogy books,"Heights" & "Pathways" & "River of Delight" found at www.everyhomeforchrist.com
If you believe that is your calling too,please come fellowship us.

Everyone must work together on a well-built house beginning with a good foundation [Y'shua]. An 
electrician does not have the giftings or training nor license to do the plumbers job nor the plumber 
the roofers job nor the landscaper the roofers job...if you get the picture;
"have ears to hear what the Holy Spirit is saying.
We all need to work together in harmony with the same love and compassion Christ has for us, each 
staying in our own lane with the task The Lord has called us to do but at the same time working
together & respecting & helping each other day by day.
 
We believe in worship and relationship with Our Creator comes FIRST,that God's will & kingdom will 
flow out of that;then,we won't have to strive in what He has called us to do for Him personally or on a 
cooperate level daily & in season. 
Read the books to "taste & see" for yourself what miracles God does for you as you surrender all &
focus on Him & simply sit at His feet & keep Him as your first love;as you love Him for Who He is &
not for just what gifts He has for you in His Hands.It is all about what we can do for Him.Giving Him
our hearts and lives the way He gave us His. 


"In that day I will restore the fallen kingdom of David. It is now like a house in ruins, but I will rebuild 
its walls and restore its former glory. Israel will possess what is left of Edom and all the nations
I have called will be mine. I, the Lord, have spoken, and I will do these things".
Amos 9:11-12; Acts 15:16&17; REV 5:9, 7:9-10,14:6, & 15:4; Mt 24:14



OUR MISSION:
To be a habitation for the Lord and a continual praise in the earth;to be a quiet resting place and retreat 
for the Lord's musicians & worshippers to get away from distractions,the cares and even wounds 
of this world;
to pull away from the stresses of life;to return to our"first love"[Rev 2:4]and come to an even deeper 
relationship in Y'shua;
to be refreshed, strengthened,renewed and fine-tuned,leaving with the
Lord's fresh rhema word,guidance,comfort,and power[Rev 3:18-21].And leave focused with His will,plan 
& purpose for our lives,
both personally & cooperately as the body of Christ.
WE believe if we stay in our own lane & encourage others to do the same[meaning being & allowing others 
to be who God created us to be individually & using the gifts & talents He created in us to use],whether it's
dancing flute or the drum,shofar or prayer shawl,or keyboard or electric guitar western church,everyone 
followers of Jesus welcome & not excluded so that we will more effectively fulfill the task God has given each of 
us to do for The Kingdom.
As believers, we are all on the same highway together traveling in the same direction pushing against the 
enemies of God
[the devil,the flesh,the world].
 
WORD OF COUNCEL;Use caution & courtesy & your turn signals when switching lanes or when detouring,bro's 
& sister's In Christ.
We do not want to be fighting against God Himself.
Hear what the Spirit is saying.
We all have work to do,small and large,and the smallest work is as important as the greatest work and will
receive the same reward.  
 
"If "MY people",who are called by My Name,will humble themselves & pray & seek My Face and turn from their 
wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven & will forgive their sin & will heal their land" 
2 Chron 7:14 


seek G-d if you are to take up the baton/mantle here.
When Elisha picked up Elijah's mantle,Elisha received a double portion of Elijah's anointing and operated
in a continual flow of provisional miracles. Amazing things happened in his ministry.
God miraculously increased a widow woman's oil.
Others had to wait until they died to receive their reward but never gave up hope;Heb 11:13,35-40


Jaffa Gate is one of many and a part of the All Nations 24/7 worship ministry networks G-d is raising up. 
Our ministry holds its events outdoors and is fairly primitive, and seeks to be a place of 
intercessory prayer and accoustic worship, a place to find rest and refreshing for individuals and small groups. 
Jaffa Gate also seeks to be a place that stands in the gap, a hedge before God for the land & its people 
in righteousness and holiness.
Ezek 22:30
We are committed to worshipping G-d constantly at all times. Worship Intercessors, as well as devoted members 
to the Jaffa Gate Ministry are welcome to come pray and worship 24/7, 365 days a year
as the Lord calls them to do so, but visits must be accompanied by reservation and done in allotted time slot 
& permission granted to you, or a visit first, from your leadership.
Interested parties have a choice of memberships that want to come back on a regular basis. The specific areas set 
aside are special places reserved just for prayer and worship, and is never used for any other
purpose. It is considered to be our Gethsemane.
The Holy Spirit has laid it upon the hearts of ministries and peoples across the nation and around the world to revive 
24 hour prayer centers [Daniel 6:10]. Examples of these ministries have been found in not only here in Murphy NC 
but other places in NC and in TN,VA, Florida, Kansas City MO and Alabama & soon upper Michigan.
Other 24/7 ministries,each unique & different, are starting in Africa, Europe and Canada as people are responding to the 
call within their hearts to begin praying in not revival 
but rather habitation.The Kingdom.The Second Coming. We feel it is time to start prayer ministries unto the Lord that 
are all about relationship with Him then relationship with one another in love & compassion. 
The "harp and bowl" revelation[Rev 8:1-5] birthed in many like us through the Holy Spirit is based on prayer that is 
prophetic in nature, corporate worship [which includes a spontaneous singing of the song of the Lord][soaking],scripture 
readings, and prophecy [confirming what the Lord is already saying to you and showing you in your 
private time with Him]and however the Holy Spirit leads.

We are here for Jesus Christ. We are here for the Intercessory
Worshipper. We are an oasis for the musicians & leaders in ministry to come worship,pray,rest,be healed 
and simply spend quiet time alone with the Lord to be strengthened & restored. 

For special events click our calender in the upper left hand corner.

We are fasting & praying  in 2009 for JaffaGateMinistry direction.We do not do anything until the Holy Spirit leads.
This vision is His that He has called us to do.
 

OFFENSE;
The enemy uses offense & division the most as a killer & hindrance to believers.
Offenses will come to us & out of us daily,most cases not on purpose.It is how we deal with them & how we forgive 
& love past them that matters.
GOD OFFENDS THE MIND TO REVEAL THE HEART!
Bow low.Worship.Keep your heart clean.REJOICE!!!Your victory is another believer's test!
We all have giftings to share with one another and to give back unto The Lord for His glory what He has given us. 
We choose to love & accept others & ourselves past our differences & flaws,
allowing our Heavenly Father to do His job that is not ours to fix & change ourselves & others;to do
our part & stay out of His part.
He is the Potter & us the clay.

We are also here for the reopening of the old wells of revival that happened here 100 years ago near Fields of the Wood 
Bible Park/The Shearerschoolhouse outpouring.
God has not forgotten the prayers & godly righteous labors of the First Nation revivals and A.J Tomlinson,W.F.Bryant,The Spurling 
gentlemen & others at Camp Creek,as well as The black nation believers & native believer 
outpourings in this area & around the globe around the same era,the end of the 1800's & early 1900's. We believe there 
will be a breakthrough sign in the natural such as the Wright Brothers taking flight was the sign in the natural for the 
outpouring event here 100 years ago. Other signs of the outpouring coming soon is meeting other believers also sent here recently 
by G-d from other states, as well as the L-rd bringing the First Nations people back here to their homelands [similar to Him bringing 
the Jews back to Israel]. This is an appointed season of restoration and healing, and with the other "signs of the times" 
& judgements starting to pour out in our own country and in the world, we have to be somewhere closer to Y'shua's return! 
We believe this time it will not be a "seasonal" revival here in Murphy NC & across our nation & other nations, 
but rather, as Ryan Wyatt said, 
"a sustained habitation of the glory of God on the earth, the Kingdom."
But G-d's way up is first down to our knees. 
So,climb on board of what the Holy Spirit is doing.
REJOICE!!! PRESS INTO ALL YAHWEH HAS FOR YOU!!! THEN SHARE IT WITH OTHERS!!!
 
The L-rd also spoke through Wayne saying "we are at a fullness of time juncture".
Our Creator is opening the boxes that man-made religion put HIM in and He is now releasing the things of heaven 
that have been locked up and hindered for centuries." 
Our heart and the Creator's heart is to see healing and restoration in this land and our nations; first with our relationship 
with the heavenly Father reunited and then one on one personal relationship with each other. as His Church.. . 
Today we CAN forgive and love past our differences like Jesus loves us.It is all a matter of choice and surrender to Our
Savior and allow Him to change us from the inside out. 

But most of all,we appreciate your prayers and musicianship,volunteering your worship time. Go before the Lord 
and see how He would have you be involved in this work. 
To be involved contact the phone number below. Leave a message, including your phone number and time we can return your call.

*We are looking forward to who the L-rd brings to come along side us that believe in this work He's called us to do to fulfill a
nationwide & worldwide vision. He wants to restore His musicians to doing what they were created to do,"WORSHIP" without
the distractions of time & family stealers of "occupation".
G-d is raising up in this hour worshippers that will be paid like King David had.
 
*Store up for yourself treasures in heaven and take your rewards with you when you leave this earth[Mt 6:20; 16:27 
and Phil 4:18].
*Come into deeper intimacy with your Creator through volunteer worship time with Him, whether here or right where
you are at..

Our focus is on Jesus Christ and to glorify Him. 
We pray every believer keeps relationship with Y'shua as the foundation in their personal life and in the ministry G-d called 
them to do, then with one another as believers as we walk in inconditional love together. 
Stay close to His heart and never take off your armor. Stand in the gap for G-d's local & global,indivdual & cooperate,plans
and purposes.
Spend time regularly in the love chapters of G-d's Word and be doers, not only hearers of His Word. We pray for you 
a Shalom Year;nothing missing, nothing broken in any area of your life! A year of Physical wholeness, emotional 
and mental wholeness, financial & social wholeness [to be able to stay out of lack and debt],and above all 
spiritual wholeness. And an extra dose of the courage and strength needed to persevere. We pray that together we can 
become the Bride 
without spot or wrinkle that Jesus Christ is looking for to speed His Return.
 
[And Will He find Faith????? Lk 18:8]
 
We have many brothers and sisters in Christ we have not yet met. We look forward to your visit.
Come Worship the L-rd. 

The Lord bless you above and beyond what you could ask or think. Store up your treasures in Heaven.

Shalom. Thank you and G-d's Blessings.
Your extended family; brother and sister in Christ,
Bob and Jeaneane Brownlow
