I've written before about the nationwide prayer meetings we saw in Haiti. God's Spirit continues to be poured out on that hungry land even as the rains begin to drench the country. The videos below paint the picture.

Adam Mcclane said it well: "I was shocked to see that God brought me into the midst of a great humanitarian disaster to show me His glory. Amidst the rubble we found hope. Buried beneath the houses and building was the past. And what remained was people left with nothing but the clothes on their backs. At first it disturbed me, 'Why aren't they trying to make a shelter or create something?' Because instantly a nation knew that God is their provider, he is their protector, He is their shelter."

Imagine if nationwide prayer meetings were to happen here in America. What would it look like in your community?
