It is 1am. I am fighting the urgency to close my
Eyes until tomorrow’s sun is shining. We are here -
New Haven, CT, with Ryan Wetherhead and Jamie Dickson!
Tomorrow we tour Yale University - we listen to the history.
We find ourselves dreaming for the restored Yale. Too, too
Many of our nation’s leaders have come from this ground -
And I keep hearing stories of Charles Finney - a revivalist
To the nation - and we are waiting…anticipating….and full of hope
To see America repent and depend on our Father & King once again.
We are surrounded by a community of New England university and prayer
Lovers. Intercessors. Worshipers. Dreamers. Jamie and his team, the Burn
Wagon crew, & Ryan and his crew embark tomorrow on a journey
Together - collaborating together in worship and intercession. Simple too….
acoustic guitars, djembes, and whatever other percussion instruments we can get
our hands on! We will be in downtown New Haven and across the street from the
Grounds of Yale. We are praying specifically for open doors with students on the
campus for Ryan & Lenny; we are praying for favor for a room on the actual
grounds that Ryan can use for The Burn Project. We want to pull even more
Students in! We are praying that there would be an awakening! We are wanting
To see the spirit of humanism desist. I keep hearing the words “we wrestle not against
Flesh & blood…but against….we wrestle not against….but against the powers of this
Dark world…”
And I feel an inward strength. I feel unafraid, un-wavered, unmoved. I feel peace
In the midst of opposition; that what is happening ….there is something Greater.
Or rather, Someone. I feel alive in dreaming. I feel apart of something so much
Bigger than me and right where I need to be…
I am anticipating these next few days - as we travel the New England area…
Visiting a few more Ivy League Universities, joining with a few JHOP’s
Along the way, worship and whatever else that Father would have us do!
We are listening….we are waiting. We want to move when He says move
And talk when He says talk, sing when He says it, stop when He says it,
Dance or hit a drum or be silent or laugh when He says to …
“They pray as if it all depends on God and live as if it all depends on them…”
Our team is amazing. Gifted beyond reason! Strong yet tender-hearted.
Ready to abandon all for the sake of freedom in America….true freedom.
We have a dream for a holy nation. We have a dream for a set apart nation.
We have a dream for the northeast region and we won’t be silent.
….we love you guys. Thank you for believing in us, praying for us,
And for your constant encouragement through texts, emails, phone
Calls.
Southeast….West coast - you are in our hearts. We are praying for you.
We love you all and cannot wait to hear the next wild adventure set
Before you!!
It is so late…..5 days of little to no sleep is too much for me.
I’m out - but not for long…
