What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas

What Happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas

Most of the places we go on the Burn Wagon we are hosted by churches, Burn 24-7 communities or houses of prayer. On this particular occasion God gave us a divine connection with one of the most awesome, fiery families I have ever met. God divinely moved the Dehart family from Northern California and moved them to Las Vegas with incredible promises of awakening!



On our first morning we gathered with the family in the the Dehart's living room to worship the creator. After driving through the city the night before and sensing the overwhelming heaviness and perversion of the city it felt so refreshing to sit in God's presence. It felt as though we were the underground remnant that God had tucked away in this quiet suburb to rise up and worship the creator and challenge the idols of America.



The presence of God flooded the room and the spirit of prophecy began to flow like an electric current from one team member to the next. Our team, many of them only 16 or 17 years old, began to prophesy over the destiny of Las Vegas and over the Dehart family. Many tears flowed as we watched God refresh the warriors that he had so strategically placed in this vast mission field called Las Vegas.



After prayer our hosts suggested that we take our worship to the streets of the Las Vegas strip and at other key locations. There was victory in the air and zeal to take down giants! The challenge of the Las Vegas strip only revved up these young warriors even more. The Las Vegas strip represents the idolatry of greed, and lust that is so intense in our nation. Unbelievable lawlessness, perversion, and greed rule in this city but all of this information did not stop the fire of the Holy Spirit from burning in us to believe and pray for total transormation.



We spent two hours worshipping in front of a psychadelic 1960's hippie bus parked for show in front of an outdoor casino. As we worshiped the presence of God invaded that ground, the joy of the Lord was released and our team began to sing, prophesy and dance in front of that bus! The contrast in what we were experiencing was night and day but God was drawing so many to the light! From this tiny little street prayer furnace many of our team launched out to share the love of Jesus with the hopeless and barren of the city! It was an amazing site.



Later that night when we got home, we were exhausted but the Spirit of the Lord wasn't done with us. We all sat around the living room and one by one each of our team members shared the deepest places of their hearts--insecurities, fears, hurts and challenges. In that atmosphere of love and safety people exchanged the lies, the hurts and the fears for the love, encouragement and strength that was pouring out from the family of God.



Last night there truly were things that were expose, healed and laid down. Our team is leaving behind many things from our past in Las Vegas! What happened last night in Vegas will truly stay in Vegas!
