He stretches his hand over the nations.

Last night I went to a prayer meeting/ discussion that a friend of mine from school put together. There was a variety of people from Oakland High school and Siegel, and the purpose of the meeting was to meet with other people and to connect with one another, and to pray together for the many of us that were going on missions trips this year.

At the end of the discussion, we got in a huddle to pray for the trips and people. 

Just to my knowledge, we have people going to Brazil, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Ethiopia, Panama, the Bahamas and Kenya. As we were praying, there really was a strong presence of unity and the holy spirit being the center. To unite with other young people who love God and who have a passion for his word and reaching out to people all over the nations is amazing and it's totally what God desires for us. 

Later that night when I got home, my sister, who had just returned from a prayer meeting at our church, asked how it went and told me that during their meeting this prayer lady at our church "picked us up" in prayer. And when I called the lady to talk to her, she said that she saw my face and the faces of many young people going into the nations over the summer to witness, and she kept hearing in her spirit "little solders going into the nations". And she saw so much more than that in prayer. This was about the exact same time that we huddled to pray for eachother at the end of our meeting. 

Words can't even describe how amazing that prayer vision was and how relevant it is to this time and to the future. God has his hand on all of us as we go wherever we go this summer. We're all connected for a reason, and as we all encourage one another while running this race that he set before us, we will see revival in our generation and in places across the world. We will see revival in these nations like nothing before and it will be amazing. Our God is a God of big things.

So let this be a summer of transformation, no matter where he sends you. He has a purpose and you have a destiny bigger than you know.
