Count Zinzendorf and how his story relates to IHOP

Count Zinzendorf was a really cool guy! He showed love and Gods love to the poor and homeless even when it was hard to. Count Zinzendorf had a lot of land, and homeless people starting coming to him asking for help and if they could live on his land. He agreed, and he continued to agree even when more and more people starting coming. He didnt turn them away, he loved them. I think it is really cool to have that much love in your heart to give things up for the poor. Eventually he started having 24/7 night and day prayer meetings waiting until Jesus came back. This is similar to what IHOP is doing now. I guess Mike Bickle was inspired by Zinzendorf and now IHOP is a 24/7 night and day prayer and intersession. What Count Zinzendorf did changed many things and led to much revival.
