Genesis
12:7 -
The LORD appeared to Abram and said, "To your descendants I will give this land." So he built an altar there to the LORD who had appeared to him.
12:8 -
Then he proceeded from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east; and there he built an altar to the LORD and called upon the name of the LORD.
Ai means "heap of ruins." Bethel means "house of God." Perhaps it is true that the altar means a bridge of sorts, (Perhaps a shadow of things to come in Christ Jesus.)between the house of God and the place of ruins. How to get from a place of loss to a place of goodness.
This altar was memorial of promise to Abraham to his him and his family.
13:18 -
Then Abram moved his tent and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and there he built an altar to the LORD.
The word Hebron means "association." It is where Abraham met with the Lord.
Mamre speaks of fatness or strength. The Lord God is our strength. Fatness in this context speaks of provision.
22:9 -
Then they came to the place of which God had told him; and Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.
This altar for Abraham is where he met the Lord of provision. The supply came to him through Jehovah Jireh.
Through out the life of Abraham, he had memorials to the greatness of the Lord. In one, a receipt of the promise, another a place between two worlds and another for provision.
It is our hope as we pursue the family altar project that we provide you with meaningful insight and practical hands on applications.
Here is one of our first.
I. What Is the Purpose of the Family Altar?
1. To worship God together and learn more of His ways. What could be a better purpose. Children should learn to worship God in their early years that they might have respect for Him in the later years. They need to learn how to regard Him and to realize that He is the Creator, Holy, and to be honored in all that we say and do.
This is a critical step in our leaving a legacy.

Noah and the altar
Genesis 8:20 Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
The LORD smelled the soothing aroma; and the LORD said to Himself, "I will never again curse the ground on account of man, for the intent of man's heart is evil from his youth; and I will never again destroy every living thing, as I have done.
"While the earth remains, Seed time and harvest, And cold and heat, And summer and winter, And day and night Shall not cease."
Noah does not appear to have any particular knowledge on the building of an altar, but it was not a "new" thing. Religious altars were part and parcel of the demise of the people of the world. Celebrating gods other than God. For until then, all it appears to say is "build an ark, get in it and get out, while taking a few people and some animals." But here is Noah building an altar. Now think about this for a moment. This is the population of the world. Right here, outside this boat. And here he could have debated about what to give, but he took from the population of the world's animals and dedicated them to the Lord. And the Lord took his praise and responded with covenant. Now we in the New Testament have a far greater covenant, but dedication to God is important today as it was then.
Noah established a memorial to God bringing them to ground safely (Do you think he might have felt forgotten at any point?) and dedicated it with praise and thanksgiving. That, honored God and brought response.
Many believe there is disaster upon the earth and that we may all perish. And yet, I am convinced that in our sacrifice to God and our praise for what He has done, God will make new plans with us and give us fresh revelation and promises.
I am building these altars to give people place of remembrance, a reminder of all that God has done. As I have read through history books by my friend David Manuel and his co-author, Peter Marshall, it is clear God has a plan for us here in America. These altars represent what God has done for us as a people. In our families, our communities and out country. I hope they will remind us of our rich heritage in Him, and call us to a daily place of sacrifice, of time and thought process, as well as a place of thanksgiving and praise.
Coming up, Abraham.

So why a place?
Just this weekend a woman was accused of cheating by her husband. She swears it isn't true. He does not care. Where is God in people's lives? As a young woman pointed out God does not show up. He is omnipresent. We show up. The altars are to be reminders of God. What can God do in my life? The life of my family? They are meant to be a calling to the beginning of a tradition of prayer and family. Just as some altars were to be memorials, these are to be a beckoning to remind people of who He is. Today you may be in need of a financial break through. God is Jehvah Jireh, the God of provision. The same God who met Abraham with provision as e prepared to sacrifice his son, Isaac, on the stone altar. Out of the brush, ram got tangled up and became the sacrifice, the provision. A couple who meets at the altar daily to pray and seek His face will find the idea of infidelity incomprehensible. Or the thought of unforgiveness wrongful.
Our country is spiraling out of control. Finances are dwindling, houses being lost and children killing others. We need a reminder of who we are and who we are called to be. We need to develop places of prayer for our families, our friends and our nation. There is no intrinsic value to these pieces. They do not have special powers. They are designed to be a reminder of death to one's self. They are to encourage us to pray, to seek God.
"Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves." Philippians 2:3, KJV.
"Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself." Philippians 2:3. NASV.
When we sit at the place of reverence towards God we see others in a better light, and we feel compelled to hold them up higher than ourselves.
So, why a place? A call to pray.

They are here
Yesterday Morgan brought the finished pieces to the church. They look great. This past Saturday we had sat and discussed 2 of the pieces. Today he heads out to review pricing for finish and the like.
I have put them up for sale beginning today. This is the website. They look awesome. As I look at them I fall in love with what the heart of the Father is for His people. "...The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."
(James 5:16b) It is my heart that we are called back to prayer. These altars are prayed over 7 days that they might accomplish what I feel God asked, for people to be reminded of their friends and family and to pray. "And Joshua said unto all the people [of Israel], . . . choose you this day whom ye will serve; . . . but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" (Josh. 24:2, 15).
It is my desire that we not get religious, for true religion is defined as taking care of the widows and orphans and living our lives above reproach, but that we get real. Real with God and real with one another. We do not need more broken homes or broken children. We do not need more corrupt politicians or immoral Hollywood stars. And God knows we could find immorality and corruption in the church.
And recently I felt the Lord say that these will remind people to pray for our nation and those in authority over us.
So, keep us in prayer. It is our desire to reach the nations. Visit our website an consider these.

February 16, 2009
Since the day I gave my life to the Lord I have thought about families restored. Even now we seem to be in a season of this.
Have you ever thought about the power of family? About the power of seeing a family come together in the power of God? About seeing families transformed? Communities shaken?
Since day 1, I have believed for transformation. At that time of my salvation I was losing my family. I was the product of a broken home. Alcohol, drugs, etc.. Over the years I have ministered to more broken people than I care to think about. All I wanted to see was restoration. I subscribed to everything that related to family. I wanted to unravel my life experience. Only this year Tina and I celebrated our 16th anniversary. Pretty impressive for ones who were both on our third marriage.
And I knew that it required the power of prayer.
And the Lord gave me a word one day while I was praying. Family Altars. Initially, I thought it was about evangelism. And I went out more than I had before. Right up my alley. And then the Lord told me he was talking about real altars. Interesting. My background as a witch caused me much problems here. Altars were always part of everything we did. I sold them in our stores and I must say I struggled with this new revelation. As a believer, I came up with all the reasons why and then all the reasons why not. I have had people tell me it is religious, etc..
But during the last few months, the Lord has been returning me to the "why" of what He had spoken to my heart. And a few weeks ago it happened very strongly during a church service. I was standing there during worship "minding my own business." I began to shake a little and cry. I could sense the drawing power of the Lord. I saw liquid oil. I saw the tabernacle. I saw the altar. "I think this is real." That was my thought. I shared with a few of my friends. The Lord caused me to go through a journey of altars by rereading the Old Testament. I was in the "battle" again. There were many reasons I fought it. Over the years I have told others of this vision. I had spoken to 5 believers about this project during the years since the vision was given. Weird things happened to them. One trashed his life, another died and the others could not see clear to it. There have been many false starts over the years. But something continues to pour into me about this.
And so a few weeks ago, I began to look for a person to help. I hired a man, but he decided he could not do it. And then I found another. The last few weeks he has been diligent, but as he told me yesterday, he got really sick. (And that he thought about what I had told him about one person dying.) So, last week in church I prayed for him and renewed my commitment to pray and find others to pray for him.
As of yesterday, one of the 3 altar styles was completed and looked great. It is a "table top" model. He will be working on the "coffee table" model and then the kneeling altar. (We even discussed a smaller model for children.") Upon completion, he is going to work with a few companies that will create and construct these pieces. These companies will supply things like choices of woods, finish, etc.. From the completion of the pieces, they will be taken to place where they will be prayed over 7 days (The purification of the altar.) I am also in the process of getting a company that will offer a laser cut piece to go in the front if desired, as well as a company that will make a "professionally" done wood burned piece that can be personalized. This panel may be scenes of altars from scriptures, etc..
These will soon be available and we will contacting various ministries, etc., for distribution.
It is our prayer and belief that lives will be touched community by community, state by state, region by region. It is our desire that families will return to the "altar" to pray for one another and their communities.
It is a "funny thing" but as we tell people they get excited about the fact that America would return to her roots. I live in a community where the only documented revival in Vermont took place. I believe we can change things with God, because God is able.
Blessings,
Lee

to keep it fresh
Dear Friends:
Many of you know that I have ben working on what we are calling "Family Altars." About 15 years ago, the Lord put it on my heart to build "family altars." Initially, I thought it was about being evangelsitic. I came up with all the reasons why and then all the reasons why not. Over the last few weeks, the Lord has been returning me to the "why." It happened very strongly during a church cservice. I began to shake a little and cry. I could sense the drawing power of the Lord. I saw liquid oil. I saw the tabernacle. "I think this is real." That was my thought.
Over the years I have spoken to 3 believers about this project. One trashed his life, another died and the third could not see clear to it. I can tell you that there were many false starts over the years. I have fought about this.
My intent is to contact places like Focus On The Family, Family Life, etc. once the prototype is done and the website complete. I think this could be really big. And I think it could bless a lot of people internally, as well as provide prayer for our nation and strengthen families. The prototypes are being completed. I hope to attach pictures sometime shortly.
And...
Could you pray? Last week, I found myself down to one sales person again. People quitting before they start. I need to have something lift off, so to speak. I need to find a couple of sales people so I can be freed up to do things like this.
At first I was really excited as I thought we are going to work hard on this altar project. In fact, I am excited about the progress. I went and saw the beginnings of the altar. The Lord had me up from 2-4 praying. My dreams, well, they spoke of the North Star and communications. The good news is, I was here. The weird part was that I received the call saying "go" but could not find the "return number" to the call. The North Star is known as the navigations star. Scripture tells us that the heavens to the north are the home of the Lord. All that aside. I ran into my study and it is doing something different to me.
This morning I had a hard start. Being up praying made it difficult to kick into gear. But, I have begun this devotion to reading the Bible once every 4 months. And so I began to read. Where was I? Smack in the thought process about the altar. I began to read (Once again) about purifying the altar. It began to become that heady, overwhelming time of study. The kind where I know things are being opened up and my "discipline" wants to forge on ahead, but revelation is popping like popcorn. That this is not a "project." This will require people to pray and purify. Now, I have stepped into that place of "Godly nervousness." I remember this from my first trip to Toronto in '94. And here I am in the middle of reading The Narnian and Honor's Reward and scripture. And thoughts are coming faster than I can think.
But, the gist of it is, now more than ever, I believe this God. The real deal. At first, I began to think that people will think this is "religious" and the like. And then I start reading more and everything becomes more and more alive. I began to see people sitting around this "family altar." I saw children sharing revelations and fathers weeping and mothers smiling and even as I write I am feeling the strong presence of the Lord. Even to the point of "God bumps." What began years ago in my mind is coming to pass. I saw people at kitchen tables with this altar and it was replacing TV. I saw the one I making for coffee tables opening up conversations about God. I saw people sitting these. I saw arthritic men and women at the kneelers and children laying prostrate on the floors. (And what is funny, I am reminded about this crazy brother I had who came to my church and built altars or rails across the front. People laughed. I used them. Maybe he was not as crazy as we thought.)
And some of the results are I feel there is a "revival" that is starting to take place here in my home. The attacks have escalated(Tina could use some prayer.), but yesterday morning all the grandchildren were in here for prayer. My daughter Alyssa is asking more and more about God. Today she asked me for an easier to read Bible. There is something happening. And if I am experiencing it then I know it is going to be happening if not already happening other places like this. Homes will be the forefront of the church. Men will be returning to wives and single parents will no longer be poverty people but established as warriors for God.
Only this morning I watched Sean Hannity and Don Imus. (BTW-I watched it for Don!) And I felt a sensation come over me as to the magnitude of these altars and all that they will mean to people.
So, I am only sharing this with you folks. Please pray for us. I feel like we are coming down the final lap here in this world. Not a gloomy sense, just a readying sense.
Reality and practical
I now know that this project will require at least $1,000 and realistically $5,000 for me to get Richard and his helper what he needs and have these made up.
I have researched the wood. We have decided to use locally grown, locally sawn materials for the altars. For the kneelers we will use all local products except for the possible exception of the posts which I am leaning towards an Amish product. This will be rough sawn materials planed down to size allowing more control over both cost and material.
I am going to pay back 10% on the investment quarterly. Example-When we receive $1,000 we will pay the person $100 divided by 4 payments or $25. And at the end of the year, we will review our status as to whether we will continue on with that or pay back the principle as well.
Some of that money will be to purchase a few tools that will be needed to do this project with expediency. Richard is showing himself to be a fine craftsman and I like what I see already. After we get 3-4 prototypes done I am going to launch a website. I will then solicit various people and ministries, I think that will be helpful to this project. As I mentioned before these will include.
Focus On The Family (Dr. Dobson)
Family Life Today (Dennis Rainey)
Messenger International (John Bevere)
ACLJ (Jay Sekulow)
AFA (Don Wildmon)
Elijah List (Steve Schultz)
As mentioned previously I am going to do all that I can to get one to a few "celebrities."
Rush Limbaugh
Sean Hannity
Don Imus
We will also contact every church we can.
We have decided to make these in batches of 12 initially. We are determining "real costs" as I speak. At this point I am not sure what would happen if a ministry ordered 100-500. Each batch will receive 7 days of "purification" and prayer for the families to receive these.
We will develop a drop ship program so others may market these, bundling them with their own books, etc.
I could use some suggestions on what to include with each of these. I have considered a Bible, a book(s) on prayer, asking a friend of mine(David Manuel) to consider writing something about the family altar as he is a great Christian historian. Part of it is, initially I expect many of these to go to people brought up in the Catholic faith. I want to encourage people to pray and not divide. Perhaps we will use the purchase to develop weekly devotions or something, but to be honest I am sure there are those far better equipped for that.)
That's it for today.
Thanks,
Lee

Part of it is, initially I expect many of these to go to people brought up in the Catholic faith. I want to encourage people to pray and not divide. Perhaps we will use the purchase to develop weekly devotions or something, but to be honest I am sure there are those far better equipped for that.)
That's it for today.
Thanks,
Lee
