The HEBRON Training Center
On September 25, 1996 during a prayer day, there was a time of repentance and cleansing of the house and clinic of Dr. Grace Ramirez.
The team went up onto the roof of the current garage and proclaimed God’s promise from Isaiah 44:26-28
"Who says (to the city) you shall be built" and to the temple, "your foundation shall be laid."
They proclaimed by faith that the building would arise and the foundation would be laid. Three years elapsed,
and on exactly the same date in the year 1999 the foundation of the building, which became the training base, was completed.
The initial plan to only construct a dwelling for herself, was changed by the Lord and Dr. Grace embarked on the process of erecting a building.
The sale of a property made funds available to start the construction. On January 3rd, 1999,
she sought the Lord for a clear mandate as a building would cost considerably more than the funds she had on hand for a house.
He gave a very direct word from 1 Chronicles 28:10 – "Consider now, for the Lord has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary.
Be strong and do it." Also in Isaiah 54:4,5 – "Do not fear, you will not be ashamed, neither be disgraced for you will not be put to shame...
for your Maker is your Husband, the Lord of hosts is His Name."
Through persistence, much prayer and believing the many promises of the Lord, the building was completed far enough to
house the first training course in 2002. Some promises still remain to be fulfilled, but we know that God is faithful
to keep His Word and that we will see the fulfillment in His time. Since that time more than a hundred students from
fifteen countries have been trained there for work in the health fields.
SOME PROMISES STILL REMAIN TO BE FULFILLED,
BUT WE KNOW THAT GOD IS FAITHFUL
TO KEEP HIS WORD AND THAT WE WILL SEE THE
FULFILLMENT IN HIS TIME.
All who stood with us in prayer, encouragement and with practical contributions and help have a part in the building and the training.
The Lord promised in Haggai 2:9 that “The glory of the latter house will be greater than the former.” Psalm 115:1 “Not unto us, Oh Lord,
not unto us, but Your Name give Glory, because of Your Mercy, because of Your Truth.”
Your prayers for the effectiveness of the ongoing training courses and their results on the health fields
of the nations are needed and appreciated.
