Before taking the stage, Lake shared on social media that Jelly Roll asked him to “pray over the night.” Lake expressed that it was one of his favorite moments of the festival, saying, “Grateful that we have a God that not only CAN meet us anywhere, but actually WANTS to meet us anywhere and with anyone who calls on Him.”

Lake posted a video of himself leading a large group of artists, who included Jelly Roll, Jelly Roll’s wife Alyssa DeFord, and Machine Gun Kelly, in prayer. During the prayer, Lake said:

I pray that they would feel faith rise up inside of them, the Holy Ghost would sweep though this place unexpectedly. We’re under an open heaven, and we know that you can be in all places. Lord, I pray that your presence would be known as we have fun, as we enjoy each other, family, communities coming together, make us one, may unity just be so recognized in this place. God, I pray more than anything, that your name would be known, that people’s lives will be changed tonight, and that they would realize that it’s because of you, that they’re loved, they were created by this amazing Father, that you have amazing plans for every single one of us. And God, we just give you the glory. Thank you so much. We prophesy in Jesus’ name, amen.

Jelly Roll Tells the Stagecoach Crowd: ‘I Fall Short to the Glory of God All the Time’

During his Stagecoach performance, Jelly Roll pointed to the sky and said, “Thank you God! Thank you God!” He then told the crowd, “This is officially the biggest show I’ve ever headlined in my career.”

“I never would have dreamed that God would’ve brought a boy from Tennessee to the desert of Southern California to lead us in church service on a Saturday night to heal the broken through the power of music,” he added.

“For those of y’all who are experiencing my music and my message for the first time tonight, I bring a message of redemption, I bring a message of hope, I bring a message of second chances, I bring a message of love, and I bring a message of belief,” Jelly Roll continued. “I believe in the power of music. I believe it can heal people. I believe it can help people, and I’m here to bring that message tonight.”
