“There is truly no one like our God.  I am so fully convinced of this fact now, after experiencing His beautiful presence for the last 25 hours.  I have felt His love, His strength, and His healing.  I have seen his heart for the people of Vancouver, the broken, the hurting, and the lost.  I have smelled His sweet fragrance, and tasted His goodness.  I have heard him whisper to my heart.  I left tonight having never felt so completely empty, and yet so completely filled.  There are really no words to adequately describe what occurred at the Burn.

We interceded for the prodigal, the city, the East side, the people working at warming stations, the churches across Canada, the world…We worshiped with songs, with dancing, with tears, on our knees, completely flat on the floor, and with arms raised until we couldn’t hold them up anymore.  We prayed praises, healing, victory, and refreshing.  By Thursday afternoon, I was so tired, so completely worshiped and prayed out, I didn’t know how I was going to keep going, but one of the leaders prayed for new spirits, new fires, new songs in our spirits, and I suddenly felt completely filled again.  One of the people I spoke to who came in during the middle of one of the sets said he could sense the Spirit the moment he stepped in the doors.  God was there so completely.

God is the God of this city, His is the victory, and all glory honor and power are His.”
