Happy fall! Every season is a good one to seek the Lord, but there’s something about wrapping up in a shawl, sitting down with a steaming hot chai, listening to the cold rain on the window and whipping out the Word with Jesus by your side.
Although I’m no longer in school I’m still working alongside college students through Campus America. This semester has been truly wonderful, meeting new friends at universities across the state and gearing up for 2010, a year of unbroken prayer across our nation! Little blazes of fiery passion have popped up at schools like SCAD, in Savannah, LaGrange University, Young Harris, Kennesaw State, UGA, Toccoa Falls College, Valdosta State and others! Our job now is to unify around one cry, lifting our voices and rallying around Jesus, the Man who can awaken love and resurrect dead hearts across Georgia!

Much of my time this past month has been spent building relationships, communicating back and forth with students on other campuses about prayer, about revival and about life in general. It’s such a privilege, not only to pray in the courts of the King of Kings, but to go there with people you love. As I look towards the future of prayer rooms in GA, I’m brought back to one of my favorite quotes.
“’Five years from now’, I (Pete Greig) stammered, ‘I guess we want to be friends. Still friends. And we want to be dreaming together. Still dreaming…that’s got to be the ultimate achievement, right? Still friends? Still dreaming? I guess it’s impossible to say where we’ll be in five years time. 24-7 prayer might not exist. But we do want to remain friends, still loving each other, loving God and loving his ideas into being. That would be success.’”

Weather Report:
“The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it , but do not know where it comes from or where it’s going; so it is with everyone born of the Spirit”

There’s definitely a storm a-brew’n in October! The Spirit is blowing strong and He’s taking me all over the southeast, scouting out communities of prayer and receiving training disciple students who are going to get saved in the coming revival!
Cleveland, TN –Spent time with hundred of student from Lee University who, for 12 hours, sought God through prayer fasting and worship, asking Him for revival in their region. Awesome stories of healing and freedom!
Young Harris, GA – Spent time with a new friend at YHC. He’s now mobilizing his campus to 24/7 prayer, asking God to move on his campus!
Athens, GA – Just 24/7: week of night and day prayer, students and community signing up for 1 hour slots and praying for justice to be established primarily concerning the issue of human trafficking
Orlando, FL –Alpha’s national conference, training in discipleship
Athens, GA – Dessert with Tribe Issachar – sharing the vision with pastors, family and friends in our community, inviting them to pray and support
Keep me in prayer as I gear up to drive across the state and continue to pray with folks, encourage them and hear what God’s doing in our nation!

I now knew beyond any doubt that it wasn’t my job to save the planet and felt so grateful to be just a small part of God’s great global purposes. An army was being mobilized, but it was God’s army led not by might, nor by power, but by His Spirit. And God’s Spirit, like the wind, is unstoppable, uncontrollable, and wild.
