Kobe (神戸) is the capital of Hyogo Prefecture (兵庫県) and is one of Japan's largest cities, located between the sea and the Rokko mountain range.
The meaning of the kanji characters in Kobe is God's door. We believe that now is God’s time and that He is going to do wonderful things in Japan. We hope that more of God’s people can awaken and become an army of God who love God and love people.
With fixed eyes on the holy and spotless King, voices of worship arose from sunrise to sunset, honoring the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, welcoming the King of Glory into the ancient door, and sitting on the throne of Japan. Let Japan go with all the nations to wait for the return of the King.

We encourage you to pray for these points for Japan.
Pray that God’s servants have faith in God will bring the revival to Japan, we will rest in His presence, like Jesus, just do what the father wants Him to do.
Pray for God to raise up more people to intercede for Japan, asking for forgiveness, mercy, and redemption, and believing that Japan will worship the Most High God alongside all nations and people groups.
Pray for God to bring more workers to Japan and to walk alongside Japanese Christians as they share the gospel to the Japanese people and to all nations.
Pray that God gives revelation to the Japanese and opens their spiritual eyes to recognize that Jesus is Christ, the Son of God and the King of Kings, they will come to know Him as their Saviour.
Pray for God’s servants will have ownership and sonships for God’s kingdom and having courage to gain their inheritance which God have given to us.
Pray for the church to understand the relationship between the church and Jesus, He sees the church as His bride, and the church will respond to Jesus and reach out to people who don't know Jesus.
