The Forge – Prayer Wall and Altar

Where Faith is Tested and Formed

In the military, "The Forge" is the brutal final test of basic training—a gruelling, multi-day endurance challenge in which trainees must prove their strength before officially earning the title of Soldier.

At The Harness, The Forge is a place of spiritual strength, where we gather to pray, fast, and stand on God's Word. Here, we bring our battles before the Lord, exercise the authority we have in Christ, and trust Him for victory, breakthrough, healing, and transformation.

The Forge is our spiritual battleground. It is where we step away from words and step into action. Through focused prayer, fasting, and dedicated altars, we use the authority of Scripture to push back darkness, break barriers, and overcome life's greatest adversaries.

This isn't just about wishing for change; it’s about being shaped by the fire.

"The battle belongs to the Lord" -1 Samuel 17:47.

Ralph

In loving memory of the one who, by the Grace of God, foretold The Harness Ministry.
His understanding and approach to prayer was that prayer is not about trying to alter God’s will; instead, it is communion with Him, through which He transforms you so that you are able to receive what He has prepared for you.
Ralph lived entirely on Proverbs 3:5-6. He held my hands as I sought Christ Jesus more deeply. To the greater Glory of God, The Harness is found in Christ Jesus, Amen!
