Стислий зміст

Це був особливий вечір вдячності, хвали й поклоніння, проведений у місяць пошанування пасторів. Замість однієї проповіді церква відкрила вільний мікрофон для свідчень, і весь вечір перетворився на спільну подяку - Богові, пасторам Миколі та Петру й одне одному.

Один за одним люди свідчили, що церква - це жива родина й тіло Христове. Віряни згадували, як громада допомагала їм із переїздами, молилася під час хвороб і важких часів, була поруч тоді, коли світ не мав чим зарадити. Вони застерігали не сприймати ці благословення як належне - дах над головою, їжу, здоров'я, рідних і передусім кров Ісуса, що єднає чужих людей в одну сім'ю.

Багато хто закликав діяти вже зараз: дякувати вголос, ставити Христа на перше місце (приклад банки, у яку кульки кладуть раніше за пісок), читати Слово навіть тоді, коли воно ніби не тримається (кошик, яким носять воду), і довіряти Богові в кожній бурі (Ісус, що спить у човні). Наприкінці пастор закликав кожного бути сміливим у вірі й не ховати свого свідчення, мов голубка, чий голос так прагне почути Господь.

Головні думки

  • Вдячність - це теж поклоніння: знайди час по-справжньому оцінити те й тих, кого дав тобі Бог.
  • Церква - це не будівля, а родина й тіло Христове, яке несе одне одного крізь будь-яку потребу.
  • Не сприймай щоденні блага як належне - оселю, їжу, здоров'я, рідних і свободу, куплену кров'ю Ісуса.
  • Постав Христа на перше місце - і все інше знайде своє, як кульки кладуть у банку раніше за пісок.
  • Читай Боже Слово навіть тоді, коли забуваєш його - воно очищає тебе, як вода, що проходить крізь кошик.
  • Віра стоїть твердо в бурі, бо Ісус у твоєму човні.
  • Будь сміливим і не ховай свого свідчення - нехай Господь почує твій голос.

Роздум

Перш ніж сьогодні щось просити в Бога, зупинись і назви те, що Він уже дав. Поглянь на людей, яких Він поставив поруч, - тих, хто молиться за тебе, допомагає нести тягар і нагадує, що ти не сам. Навіть бурі мають свою мету, адже той самий Ісус, який спить у твоєму човні, може встати й утихомирити вітер. Не дай вдячності мовчати в серці: вислови її, запиши, проживи. Постав Його на перше місце - і побачиш, як усе інше стане на свої місця.

Церква - це не місце, куди ти йдеш, а родина, що несе тебе на руках.
Не проси Бога вивести тебе з бурі - проси, щоб Він проніс тебе крізь неї.
Спершу поклади Христа - і місця вистачить на все інше.

appreciation praise and worship night i'm glad to see everybody here and uh i would actually like to since it is appreciation uh night i would like us to actually uh preachy give a little bit of appreciation towards our our worship band that you know they prepared and they you know got together and and they used their talents and what god's given them in order to glorify god and not only glorify him but help us lead us in glorifying him so i'd like to begin um our night just like we usually do uh our our services is we're going to have testimony testimony time or you know if you have maybe something to share an encouraging word whatever it may be if it's in in your heart and you have the desire to share it we're gonna have an open mic you're more than welcome to uh you know come up and share whatever god put on your heart so we'll start off with dan thank you guys and before we start the evening i would just like to give appreciation just to our churching staff for just coming up with these nights these uh services the prayer and worship services that we have once a month uh thanks big foresight to peter usually in charge in taras leading the services so just a big round of applause thank you god put him in that position and they're blessed in that position that god keeps blessing them more and more and uh today i just wanted like a little just story kind of maybe a little kind of testimony um so this week a lot of people know me and my wife we were moving we were at our parents house we ended the lease at the old apartment moved out of there lived one and a half months with our parents and now we got another rant so now we're moving in there and so just i want to thank everybody especially in church like uh like you think about it my whole life we've lived in church and we have those people to help move every single time we move when we moved here with our family like every time we just called people from the church and people are there and we moved like seven times in seven years or something like that so every year like people would already be ready oh where's the moving time everybody get in there and anyway but like you think about it other people that maybe don't have that same community that we have that the church builds they have to go out maybe hiring a moving company or they have to struggle doing it by themselves and we literally moved yesterday we started at like 10 30 and by 1 30 we moved everything out and into the new place already and it was just so fast like three hours and it's gone like i couldn't have done that myself and uh it's just crazy to think about how how how much of a foundation the church builds us and just equips us to succeed not just in life because uh not not trying to preach the prosperity gospel or anything but it really does help us succeed in every every every aspect of our lives and work we have people to come through we can pray to god for help with finances with house with anything else with kids and stuff other people they don't have they don't believe maybe don't believe in a god to rely on like that and then people fall into depression they start they don't know what to do with themselves suicides happen but uh the testimony i would like to share about church being community me we were a birthday weekend went to georgia with some friends for the florida aquarium for a weekend to go to the thing for nasa's birthday and on the way back we were driving and i don't know how it came up we started talking about like the community like how like our community people we talked to like old friends and stuff and so my wife actually shared a story and she was saying uh this one girl some of you may know her some may not uh she used to like every so often visit she lives further away so like we kind of kept in touch with her she'd come to youth whenever she was in town and stuff anyway so like after we moved from uh at the church on san christopher we moved here it was kind of far for her and everything she didn't really visit as much and randomly like i don't remember she said a year ago or two years ago this girl just texts my wife and she's like hey um like out of the blue ellen never kept contact with her uh like unless it was like we saw her and like knew her face to face but she just randomly for like four years of not seeing each other not a word on social media nothing just text her hey i just wanted you to like ask the youth can you guys pray for my boyfriend's uh mom she's like suffering cancer and like other people like she she maybe isn't in church anymore anything but she knew of somebody in church and the first minute that she had a need she went to the person and us we're so blessed that we can come here every sunday we have the opportunity our pastors give us to come come to the altar we can pray about any needs we have spiritual uh with anything in our life going on and i just want to give appreciation for how like you think about it god thought of it beforehand how to create that a church would be a living body like we think about like you think about okay go back the however billion years ago or a million years ago whatever and like when god created the earth he knew that adam like he knows everything that's gonna happen and then he knew that when jesus came how the church would become different a church would become a community before it was in a synagogue and it was at the tabernacle you had to go there to be in the place of god and sacrifice but now the church is wherever we are we could move we were in san christopher now the church is here we can move somewhere else and the church will be there the church is the people and that's what i just want to give appreciation to amen [Applause] [Music] for sharing that very good very good word and i thought of the idea i mean just what you shared how like you know group of believers like we have the church for example somebody's moving i can only imagine you know people that don't have a community of whether it's believers or just you know family and they're living in a town themselves they have to hire a moving crew you know you always see a lot of those like two men in a truck and whatever and then they have to get people to move and they don't have that you know i guess it's not they don't have that community of people to care for them to you know love them and just and just support and encourage them physically and what's even what's even more interesting is for me like you mentioned moving how you know we had all these people and we helped you move to you know from one place to another and uh just community of people and uh it works the same way in you know our spiritual life if if you know we have spiritual needs and you know we're struggling with something whether it's you know uh like depression or you know going through a hard time we can always you know rely on somebody in our in the fellow church body to share you know what we're going through with and and they can pray for us we can pray together so so we can be lifted out of that so that's what's even more amazing and we should appreciate even more is that it uh he the the church is the answer from beginning to the end from for every single need whether physical spiritual you know whatever whatever it is that you can think of if you go to him in prayer or his his body you can find an answer so that's definitely something we could be thankful and appreciate anybody else anybody else we still have open mic so if uh you know that encouraged you and you just have something uh we'll have one my demo up here um dima is actually for those of you that may not know he's the toric's brother he was baptized in our church about a couple a little bit ago and uh this is his brother so it's all yours thank you [Applause] so i kind of just wanted to come up here and give a quick testimony uh i didn't really prepare any notes or anything so i'll just be winging it but uh so basically um like yeah i just wanted to kind of talk about like god working god works and all things together for the good or he who loves god and is called according to his purpose and also the scripture that says um uh yeah we know that yeah romans 8 28 yeah that's that's the one so yeah i just wanted to um yeah talk about romans 8 28. um basically like before i got saved i don't know if many people can relate to this but before i got baptized and before i really dedicated my life to christ um there were things that i did completely differently than i do now and um basically like i didn't i really took a lot of stuff for granted in life like my parents and my family and all these things that i really like appreciate now um i would just complain a lot and kind of yeah i was not a very grateful person and um uh yeah i was like things like even having a a room to live in a house to live in food to eat and then like you know no physical and mental disabilities i mean it's like i i wake up every morning and i just pray that that's how i start my day is i just thank the lord that he's just blessed me and and like i know like that i wouldn't be uh where i am now if i hadn't been through like the worst situations in my life where maybe like i don't know like of example is like i sprang my ankle like i mean i wouldn't really be grateful for having legs to walk on if i never sprained my ankle and realized how like important it is to have two legs to walk on and so like yeah i just kind of wanted to say like whenever you're facing something like it might not seem like there's any way god could kind of just use it for his glory and your own good but just know that he is working on it for his kids [Applause] thank you demon thank you for that uh encouraging word that was great to hear um what god's doing in your life and i also uh would like to we appreciated our band we appreciated you know a lot of things the church as a body but we also know there are leaders in the church and there are people that take care of us and you know they uh work some full time like our pastor you know in order to make sure that the body as a whole is functioning the way it needs to function so well first of all pastor nikolai our lead pastor and pastor peter if we could just give them some appreciation for what they do for our church we really appreciate it and these services wouldn't happen without you know without them peter and and our sunday services and whatever whatever it is that our church organizes and everything that we do and we are able to do um god works through them in order to make it happen so thank you guys we really appreciate it also again one more time maybe a couple more times actually go ahead amy i saw that hand i don't know if you were trying to hide it but i saw it so you're up [Applause] okay so um everyone might know that i haven't been to church in a while and i can admit i've done this testimony thing here and there a couple times and some of it didn't stick um i think this testimony it's not 100 full or done or anything like that it's more i think it feels i feel like it's going to stick this time i feel happy i feel less angry i realized you know my family and yeah i think that the reason why the others testimonies never stuck or any of the things i've been through was because i never really took some time to myself to think about i never i prayed but you can't do a 10 cent prayer to do a million like a prayer that you want that's a million dollars i'm not it's a weird expression yes but in order to get that big want or whatever you need you need to pray that much you can't pray a small prayer and expect the biggest gotta pray and pray deep i actually the last song we prayed for saying just now for worship it reminded me of a time i prayed with ellen tony and ben ben battaghan we were snowboarding camp or cabin and we prayed for hours and only felt like 10 minutes and i like that i was really happy then and i'm like that's true how am i supposed to live life in god's hands and be with god if i'm barely even praying um so i think that i was going somewhere with this i kind of lost track but i think that i feel better now i think i pray to god and i believe that we need to let god do things for us even if we think it's not the right choice or oh i don't want this to happen i've lost prob many people the past couple months and i think that was the best thing for me no matter how many how much i didn't want to lose those people it was great choice and it's because i kept praying like god there's a lot going on why should i keep these people in my life or should i continue with what's going on if you keep praying god will eventually lead you to where you need to be into a better place and a lot of the times it's not somewhere you want to go but that's just how it's going to be um sometimes what you want is not what god wants and i think that in order to keep this i need to keep going god praying reading the bible and i don't know where i heard this but i i feel like it was from paul our youth pastor but um there was this grandma she's blind but she has her grandchild helping her out and every time and then the they were wanting water and i guess he asked some sort of question i'm not 100 sure what it was oh um no she had dementia so she he keeps reading the bible and the son our grandson's like why do you keep reading the bible it's you're not going to remember it what's the point of reading it and then she told him can you go get water with this basket she got a potato basket with holes in it like the weaved ones and she was like go get water with this basket so he went down to the river grabbed some water filled it up and by the time he got back all that water was gone he's like the water wasn't there so she's like go do it again he did it again and so on he did another five times or i remember and he's like you don't understand grandma this is not the water's not staying why do you keep making me do this it's not going to stay in this basket she's like but look at the basket it is a lot cleaner now it might not keep the water but it's clean that's the same thing with reading the bible when you're not even if you don't remember verses even if you don't i mean it's good to remember but if you keep reading it will keep cleaning you no matter if you remember the information or not if you keep reading you'll get it and i think that's what my problem was is my life got good and then i stopped praying or stopped reading because my life is great why should i and then go back to down the road again and it's it's good that that happened because without god you know devil gets you get bad thoughts um paranoia stuff like that um it reminded me or actually paul or pavlo stock my uncle what he his preaching was today it reminded me so much of what i was thinking of i thought people didn't like me i'm different than a lot of you guys i can admit but god doesn't want us to be the same and i have different interests i have different whatever but i never felt included into the group maybe by some people but not always and but that's just the devil talking to me or something because it's not true i i know a lot of you guys love me and i love all of you so [Applause] and i think that just keep praying and no you're never going to be ready for anything especially with god you're not going to be ready but you're going it's no one's ever truly ready you just got to do it and it'll be great so thank you amen praise god thank you amy and the testimony you know it's not that the testimony didn't stick it's just still going so you know your life is a testimony and it's a living testimony and whether you struggle you might fail you might fall but in the end it's going to be all for the glory of god because you are you're right you're in a great community of people family even that love you that care for you and uh me personally will always support you and be here for you no matter what gets in the way and i'm sure many of us here would agree uh they would do the same so we're gonna keep this going uh wow we have the ball rolling this is your chance you know if god's done something in your life or you just want to come up here and give some encouragement towards somebody mama mirza you are welcome let's welcome mama mirza [Applause] i want to talk with you today about time as you know like for last i think 10 years my husband he's working home and um he always was home with us like every morning we have a breakfast together every evening we have dinner with the family but last week he went on the business trip to ohio he went for one week and in this in that time i realized um have you missed the person with who you stay like every day for you the same and maybe you do not value that time correctly but when this you lose something you start understand what you lose and many times when we gather together with the friends we are talking about some big church events some big like god's movement or anything like this like it was back then it was couple years ago but god once he he said like the past it's already in past but we live right now today and uh we live like for some reason we are here for some reason we came to this church this evening and this time and bible verse ecclesiastes 31 and it says to everything there is a season and i i believe that for that's the season for us this time when we came to this church to experience god's presence and we have to um be prepared not just only talk about fasting and maybe oh it was great time we have we have to do something but we have to prepare for each service for each time and i want to thank god for a time he gave us like we are alive today we are healthy we are happy we are as a family we are have many friends we have a food we we are so blessed and i wanna thank uh for the team who make this english service like especially i'm so happy for our youth they can share their testimony they can um they can serve the lord they can sin they can preach like this is the time you have to use and i wanna thank you everybody youth choir i wanna thank you for every person who involved in this for all the time when you come here to the stage to share something maybe sometimes it's so personal to you but you never know maybe it's big encouraging for somebody else and may god bless you guys [Applause] thank you to jokussana that was very encouraging to hear and i myself agree with that i mean it's it's i believe this is a great opportunity you know for for me for the for us as the youth um to to kind of use our gifts use our talents share the things that god's doing in our life be able to kind of you know not only you know gather maybe in a house and just talk to each other something that's good fellowship is good but to be able to kind of you know learn how to speak in front of a crowd you know if you were to go out in a public place to be comfortable with public speaking especially about the word of god you know practice your singing talent if you have a talent to sing you know and you're just kind of hiding it you know it's better to you for you to have an opportunity to be able to come up here and sing and then maybe eventually sing you know at our main services which we're hoping that the youth eventually would you know obviously take part in because we have a lot of talent but in order to make that talent useful we got to start acting and just like like duchy oksana said we have to put it into action now now is the time now i sang and i i want to sing but now we're going to sing now we're going to preach now we're going to share now we're going to do these things and that's very encouraging to hear it thank you oksana uh again ball's rolling so raise your hand if you uh is that i don't know if he's going to the bathroom or he's coming okay he's going to the bathroom all right all right toilet is welcome toilet [Music] appreciate it um this is just gonna be a quick one um i like the few things that people said over the few weeks like we've been talking about the church service with his church and everything and uh even last wednesday uh sir jim lewis had a good sermon about yeah he had a good question about if women can preach and stuff like that um i think everyone should definitely preach and um so i i had some notes um it was on a different phone so um really what i want to bring an example of is um when when moses was guiding his people through the um desert away from pharaoh and then they came to the to the river and uh god parted the seas and so i was just thinking like there's few people that would go first and because it's a really scary thought to go through those waters when you have like you know a couple hundred foot walls of water on either side so um it's really you know it like like you said like people say it's you know it's encouraging for other people to see people go first and and preach and sing and stuff and then you have other followers because they get more comfortable so this is the same thing with people going through the parted waters um like there was a few people i'm sure that didn't want to go first because they felt they weren't too close to ghana they're like well if i go first the waters might fall on top of me and i'll get crushed so they looked two leaders to go first so they would have the confidence also to follow and then once enough people were in the water in between the waters they knew that god wouldn't crush them basically so they're like well i can go now with the entire group so basically i'd like everyone to share today because i don't want to do this alone either so um if we could like honestly you know there's power and unity and you know there's power in agreement um so if we all agree here that like you know in in the gospel and all these things that jesus teaches i think we should definitely get together and you know maybe even form a line and i think everyone should like go up on stage and quickly just say a couple things uh you know even a couraging word like god bless you guys i love you and just um you know everyone here has to be involved and we're gonna go all through the water together you know basically so that's my little example and i'm gonna start it off like that and then yeah that's how you're starting yeah yeah i can even i can even just walk around with the mic and then you guys can eat yeah that's that's fine yeah go ahead go ahead [Applause] thank you oh well i will be honest with you the past probably um half a year even more like i was it was all about school because quarantine it's all at home online so like i would just study all the time at home or just like do home stuff uh and i realized that that time was also given to us not just for like continue studying working we have like a lot of free time too and for that we can use also for [Music] how to how to say to no it's okay um we can discover our talents we can um have something to you know to praise the lord like we can start uh to learn how to sing or something and at the same time we can start to uh read bible more or pray more and you know god will open new doors and new ways so after this quarantine or after this you know pandemia we can like we came back together but you know when it will all finish that we can start with the new power and just have everything good i have to say i'm one of those people who has to like wait for someone to go in the water first and then i'll go it's kind of scary for me but um i want to say about what nina said um in quarantine and like when we have all that time and all of that free thought space to like evaluate everything and get closer to god i think it was a lot easier when i had all that time and everything and now that life is kind of like back to normal it's really hard it's like a constant battle every day trying to make time for like god's word trying to make time for everything that you did in quarantine because you had all that time to get closer i really have no idea where i'm going with this i never had time to think of anything but i just think it's important even though now we don't have all that time now we have more time to be together and to have regular schedules and everything i think it's important to fit that time that you had with god in quarantine into your lives now and as a community like suggest if you're with other people to also like spend time with god together and like i guess just eliana i'm right there with you i don't oh i don't like to speak in front of people so but um you know something that amy kind of said and kind of like well like with god's plans like i had a friend ask me yesterday like about like my pregnancy and she was like oh like you know like how like how how are you doing are you like did you like research a law were you planning on it like what was like going on through your mind and all this stuff and i was just like you know honestly like i give it in god's hands and um bless you and it's just something that i kind of like i don't know i've been thinking about a lot recently is just like you know we might have our own plans but god has a completely different plan for us especially like yeah especially with like tras and i we're in the process of getting a home and there's been like up and ups and downs in the process but like all in all it's like i just have to remember like give it in god's hands because it might be something that we want but maybe god has a completely different purpose for us so that's something that god's been speaking to me recently and i just want to encourage you guys just to give it all into god's hands just let go and let god i'm sure you guys have enough of me for one service but i'll try to make it quick um i want to encourage with pretty much what liam they've kind of said before linda mentioned you know starting with a new power um if we all you know as a group as a youth as a body together actually you know dedicate ourselves to this and apply ourselves um to reading the bible like leona said making time you know sometimes you have to make time to read the bible make you know and i i would just like to encourage all of us that you know even with time if something that i kind of applied to my life that really helped me is making it like making it a part of my time i guess you could say so almost like intertwining your spiritual walk with your with your daily life so so like as you're doing something you're in the in a state of you know meditating on the word of god you're in the state of prayer kind of as you're driving in the car with somebody you're praying and maybe something will come to you to share with them as you're you know walking through the hallways in church somebody stands out to you you want to share something with them and by doing this maintaining this kind i guess you could say lifestyle it can allow you to you know not only be like oh i got to go home read the bible for one hour no keep it going like you know what i mean have have like a lifestyle of that with an additional the thing is once you have that lifestyle you'll start to notice why is it important that i read my bible why is it important that i have time for worship why is it important that i have time for prayer because when i'm in those moments where i need to do something for the for the kingdom of god applying myself and my gifts and my talents i need to read the bible so it's almost like backwards it's not oh i need to read the bible because i want to be a good christian no i'm doing the will of god and for that i need to read the bible so i just want to encourage us with that you know let's try to you know kind of push ourselves to be make a lifestyle of christianity instead of just you know as a task so to speak so uh also be quick also be quick um so one thing that i just thought of while i was in there and before i've been thinking about it like right now it's october beginning is it the beginning of victim it's the middle already of october wow it's moving fast uh yeah you're right tomorrow is middle of october you're right um but life moved like we see it around us uh the world moves in seasons and so we have seasons in our life as well in our walk in life so uh just if you're in a poor season or something know that there's always like another day another season another thing's coming like right now in florida we have october it's still hot we're kind of in between seasons you could say because we don't get the orange leaves or anything we have to wait for december for the cult but just kind of encourage me or some remember that there's always seasons better times are coming uh so amen i guess i'm going again so i wanted to mention first we are doing appreciation so i want to appreciate all the leaders and fellow followers everything you guys are doing i've tried to plan a couple things i've already said a while back about stuff i've always planned to do and it is really hard to keep up so i appreciate that you guys are doing such a good job with that it takes a lot of bravery courage it is hard to come up and do something that most people won't do or that because everyone a lot of people like to fall you have to figure out if you're a leader or a follower and it's if you're a fall or if you're a leader it's good that you guys are pushing it through and doing what you were meant to do god will tell you and i'm glad that god is fault is helping you guys out another thing i wanted to say was about time mama marissa mentioned um and i think you said something about it too um so i wish i knew i was gonna say something about this because there is a demonstration that i know about there is a jar and if there is three things or two things that go in that jar there is sand which is your world your activities your work your homework everything and then there are three golf balls and those or ping pong balls whatever you want to say then that is time with jesus time with christ and him in your life now i really wish i had this in front of me because it'll be a lot better to show but if you put in your life and your hobbies and your priorities with the sand in that jar and then you put in those golf balls which is christ in next you're not going to be able to close that jar so you're obviously not going to have time to put christ in your life but if you put those golf balls in first the time with christ if you put that priority and then you put the sand in next you will be able to close that jar i really wish i could show you because it's cool and if you put that in he will make time for everything else you have and mama mirza was really correct about that you put christ first you put everything else too and you should live every day like it's your last and i know it's it's a whole thing it's not just christian but also live life every day is and jesus is going to come tomorrow live like every day that you're going to you know you don't know what's going to happen you never do even even if god has god has a set plan you never know so live life every day put christ first he'll put time for everything else for you so [Applause] i'm not gonna go up there i'm already nervous but uh speaking of time i remember a long time ago teresa was uh giving us an example of a charge phone and over quarantine i realized how important it is to spend time alone with yourself because we're constantly surrounded by people and you know how you ever like getting people like whoa i want to do something like you get encouraged by people but over quarantine you can't really you're like you're like well like i'm forced to spend time with myself and some people say for some people quarantine was a curse for me it was really a blessing because i understood how much time you can really spend as a as like a person like just individual like putting in time in yourself and like then sharing with other people so like a phone like if you never charge your phone it will never like give you wi-fi right or like your rotor so same with people if you never go and spend time in your prayer closet you will never be able to share with other people so have a good one [Applause] all right that's what i was about to think about too of what i appreciated for i really appreciated that my life i really appreciated the church i appreciated my wife really i appreciated my family appreciated my boys and daughters i really appreciated that my grandchildren my son-in-law of course who make that happen i really appreciated pastor nikolai i really appreciate all the brothers and sisters who serve me in the church even if one of the minister who's supposed to serve but without really people around you my life is not going to be the same tonight is a night of appreciation my focus is my heart is to just encourage us to appreciate it more and more what do we have in the life why don't you do this we just put up all the stuff you thankful for it's not a sins given time there will be next month but just right now to truly appreciate what's god give it to you in your life so often we're overlooked we didn't see it we might gonna complain about oh it's not enough money in the gas my tank is like low you know drive from one gas station to another but you have a four wheels you have a seat you have a car people might complain about oh there's nothing to eat you open the fridge why because you have a like three pack of cereal maybe she may be low on the milk but you have a two extra is it so much stuff we appreciate we take it for granted we didn't really appreciate it so this is a small small stuff so that's a heart in me it should be appreciatable heart i know it's a new worth of english or not but i make one yeah i don't know the correctness to say but i understand you understand so i just would like to encourage every one of us just tonight just found the four or five reasons in your life what you appreciated or who you appreciated your parents your mom and dad you know that then he was sharing about he's moving out now he's on his own terrace nellie as a new le west you'll feel the responsibility to actually you wanted that freedom from mom and dad but then you just realize how many benefits you have and dan and ella i think they tasted this back to go back and forth now they go to their own place they probably recalculate the few things blessing they have in the house but they didn't want to appreciate it it's natural for everyone who is who is going to be moving out of the house same thing with uh we just found a moment tonight just maybe you have to make the phone call maybe you have to send the text message to your mom to people i would just say that do the five things five things there will be homework kind of encouragement who you're just going to either say or call or do something in a way of appreciation just let the people know i read the passage about the mean the double portion for those who's ministering in the words and in doctrines this is allowed us today tonight to have what we have the bible encourage us in bless those who minister into you give them double portion he talks about of course we're talking about all the spiritual things this in the church of course we have to be all nice and sunday but it's all boiling down to maybe not such a spiritual things like uh people do to you like ministering to your mom your dad your friends the guy who gave you their lift they gave you a lift to bring you on the car back and forth the people around you who was like you know i really appreciate it i want to say thank you family morza for all how many times have been in your house you received me i saw when i was at your house i see people moving back and forth i'm really appreciate it let's just go around round close for musa family and by the way tonight's dinner was good too thank you so just this is the my one more the family please receive that thank you from me right now if you're online you feel watching just make sure to send them text messages say yes peter i'm agree with you this is the my yes you already gave you yes was a clapping but this is the one more i have a four more i have to do sometimes tonight is appreciation night to think clearly what do you appreciate what you say thank you you know there's a bible passage in uh and uh in the uh in in uh the gospel of luke 17 18 it talks about leprosy which is strike the people's skin it's it enough them a life is go to the bones there was a ten people they came to jesus they studied this they the bible said they stay far off they lift up the voice and they yelled and scream and say we have a mercy on us he is look at them their sickness was not allowed them to come if they come close people are going to stone them because they call the social distances stuff you know they knew that and you know what happens jesus look at them they say go show yourself to priests they went to jerusalem on the way to jerusalem they've been healed and as one come back kneel down you say thank you lord i appreciate it actually i've been healed and jesus asked the question was the other night so the question is for this night it's gonna core of my thought i would really appreciate what we have if we do why don't you use the words to say thank you why don't you send a text why don't you show the people around us who appreciate it starts with we're in the church we'll start with october month thank you pastor nikolai to be a lead pastor to our church thank you thank you that's where i want to stay i have a two already so i got a three more to go god bless you all um i'm just gonna stand right here but um i'm just i don't really have a testimony but i'm just thankful that as many of you know me and my family moved out from the northwest from idaho down here about uh down here about three months ago and we've been going to this church about two months and i just remember before i moved like a solid like week or so i got this like big fear in my heart where like i was just worried there wouldn't be you know like church there wouldn't be friends there wouldn't be work and i started really praying and as soon as we got here like this is the first church we visited my dad found it and we visited and been going here ever since and i'm very thankful for all the youth all the people for work pastor peter thank you and yeah i don't have much share i don't have much to share today either but i'm gonna be very cliche i just want to take a moment and just appreciate this service that we're all here together you know in the beginning i was it was kind of like not iffy but like i'm like i guess this is just going to be a classic classic worship night nothing much to it but i love the turn that dory took to and he said how each and every one of us has to um has to give a testimony i really i enjoyed that a lot all right uh [Applause] um i guess yeah a continuation of the first thing i said um yeah just i guess we can take our loved ones for granted we can take lots of stuff for granted like uh nikolai said and yeah just the simple things in life i mean i mean my brother where uh um reading the bible having a devotional in the morning and i just was uh noticing like like little leaves falling from the trees and dragonflies and like uh butterflies and all these little things and i just like i when i see that like you know you can say gratitude but you can also be like wow like praise the lord like thank you lord for your creation that it's like you know that that reveals his character like how he knows the hairs on our head are numbered but he also created like the the planets and the stars and he's that great [Applause] um i just want to like appreciate the fact that whenever i wake up i can just stand up you know some people aren't able to do that i can go to school i gotta be able to go to church for a community and i can have like some people that i can count on if like you know i'm not feeling good that day and just like the fact that like no matter what i'm going through it's just i can trust somebody and it's just that the church is really good for like you to feel like you're like people are with you and you're not but you're alone so i kind of don't like to talk but i want to be appreciate all the people that come up to preach on every sunday wednesday and worship nights because i i don't like to speak it's like what dimitri said we take it all for granted but we should be thankful for this [Applause] okay so i'm going to go up front because i want to thank toile because i had something to share but i wasn't going to and toilet doing this actually got me up here so i want to open up mark 4 verse 35 and down it says that day when evening came he said to his disciples let us go over to the other side leaving the crowd behind us they took him along just as he was in the boat there was also other boats with him a furious squall came up and the waves broke over the boat so that it was near swamped jesus was in the stern sleeping on a cushion the disciples woke him and said to him teacher don't you care if we drown he got up rebuked the wind and said to the waves quiet be still then the wind died down and it was completely calm he said to his disciples why are you so afraid do you still have no faith they were terrified and asked each other who is this even the wind and waves obey him i find it like in my life i know that jesus is in my boat i know that he is always right there but i'm still like worried for what's gonna happen worried about the different storms in my life and i'm sure many of you guys have the same feeling that it's just that uncertainty like now we know that god wouldn't have drowned jesus there on the spot he wouldn't have killed him there but it's like those disciples didn't have that faith in jesus that he could stop the storm they jesus asked them where is your faith and i just want to encourage everybody to just put their faith in jesus and just you'll get through every storm uh so gotcha was just talking about a story of uh the the boat and how faith and it reminded me of last week there was a football game in my favorite team the seahawks and they were playing the vikings and so the it was it was like two minutes left in the final fourth quarter of the game and the seahawks were down by six and you could tell by the looks on the people of the bench that they all had faith in their quarterback so even though they had like one minute left and the odds were stacked against him they all had faith in their quarterback and i want to encourage you all to have faith in jesus [Applause] okay i'll come up uh praise the lord you know uh when we come in here we're kind of late i'll explain why a little bit later so we're uh in the car we are listening to the service so even although we were not here i've heard nanik was saying about how he was moving and how he everybody held him to move and actually the thing is uh just we were in north port just those fridays saturday we moved victoria to the new house so we did basically the same thing we were moving and also it's the same thing that everybody came out from their church it was very fast it was very like organized we rented the u-haul truck and everybody helped and it was very quick we settled her into we started like friday night we moved the most saturday saturday like half a day everything was done everything was even unpacked everything was like very nice so praise the lord for the gods family for the so so so we really help one another and today like when we came back actually today a little later on we were thinking we were packing too you know we're packing because we're going to be moving out of the house because we sold our house and we were like we were busy we saw i i was we didn't even thinking you coming to the church today because we were busy packing and i was kind of this thought across my mind i was thinking it's kind of not right you know just i know you're busy i know we have to back but not to be in the church it doesn't doesn't just feel right it's it's it's let's told my wife let's let's get up on this dress up even though we're late we still come we still come and still pray and you so praise the lord god gives us this this thought that's even even though we are busy sometimes even we have a good excuses not to come to church but we still something in our heart it stirs us up and said kind of not right it's it's let's go even though we're a little bit late even though but it's we have to praise the lord together with god's family we have to be together because god put this in our heart you know to need the fellowship with each other to need to praise him with each other not just by ourselves not just by by our internet but together to come together and praise the lord so i wanted to praise the lord with all of you that's um i just wanted to shortly just say you know everybody's talking about all their testimonies and this and it's all good that we're all here and able to share that every good thing that's happened in all of our lives but i just want to remind you guys that you know in this place all these things would not be able to happen without jesus and god in our lives and i just want to take this night to appreciate what he's doing in all of our lives all these testimonies everything that we're able to share it's all because we we know jesus as our savior and god loves us all and he performs his miracles and i just want to remind you guys to don't take it for granted what you have in your relationship with jesus praise the lord i'm so happy to be here and i'm so thankful to god that we have church that we have one another who can encourage that we can pray and it is such a big blessing and some of my clients when i tell them you know some testimony you know life in our church you know how god answer on prayers and how big blessing it is really big different to be in church and be in family together and serve god together and people jealous and some families start to go to church like uh where they belong because they really see what a big difference you know like many times we come to church have some needs have some worries maybe something hurting and we pray and god answer and we live in church total different person be happy be full of joy we have peace in heart and we so blessed that we have one another thank you well every thought comes to my mind somebody already spoke about it like and you think i start okay i'll talk about this somebody already said something so since it's appreciation night i would like to if you allow me to tell that how much i appreciate my husband because in the spirit of seven years being on a journey with cancer he was my everything in the like flesh on this earth anytime i would have pain or need i would run to him to pray for me or anoint me with oil and he would be like any time at work anywhere you know if i need like prayer or need or anything he was my everything like here and being a father and a mother sometimes when i was really really ill i really really appreciate of course i'm thankful to god that he gave me him and he goes through this i know it's not easy for him because he had to deal with work and kids and church but my prayer and if you're gonna pray pray for him that god gives continue gives him like strength and sometimes he would want to do something i'm not feeling it and he would be like oh you remember you know he would miss the times when i'm all healthy and good and can go on a bike rides or anything like he would desire but he was there for me and i'm really really appreciative and praising god for that [Applause] i just want to thank god about how thankful we should be for how blessed we are because we took a missionary trip to haiti i don't know like three four years ago and to travel there and see how how little they have and then to come home and see how how nice and and everything is at home we really need to think about it and pray about how blessed we are amen [Applause] i want to thank you god for our church for our youth for our pastors for everybody in our church um as daniel mentioned like we move so many times in florida like every year like it was some circumstances and we have to move and you you guys was there to help us even we don't have like we have so big family my husband his family of 12 siblings i have four

care for giving me having mercy and also i want to appreciate the favorable time we have today and also for the future he's a good heavenly father he i appreciate that he took care even our future our eternal life and prepared the place for us and what i want to say everything what i have what i appreciate that's a big thing to my heavenly father [Applause] ileana say said that it's hard to or somebody else walk actually it's pasha said go first and if you think it's hard go say first it's hard when you last and everybody like lydia said oh i'm gonna say this i'm gonna say that and yeah yeah a little bit of everything i do appreciate george we are here from the beginning and oksana said about time it was about us because we always say oh it was like this it was like that and she said why you say that why don't you do this and i just want to encourage you you do because it's your time it was really hard when we come he came here in 22 years ago we had nothing and we couldn't speak when we we didn't have anything and we were like i can't like we were doing even evangelical meetings and we were cooking and like we did not have what we like wanted to but we were doing and but for you i just want you just do it and i i don't know and katya katya said that it's when storm comes to your life i know in my life when storm came to my life and i was praying god please take me out please i don't want to and then god taught me that don't ask me to take you out just ask me to let you go through it and you and you when you're gonna be close to god and he's gonna help you go through that and that is gonna be behind because if you're not gonna walk in and walk out you're still gonna be in the beginning just i encourage you just if that storm is just go through it god will help you he's gonna take you on your hand and carry you and something else i just appreciate my friends lelichka i love you and my husband that he's with me 20 years thank you jesus for everything my children [Applause] i'll make this quick god is good and all the time uh i just wanted to say and encourage you guys uh always pray uh be consistent in prayer um when you're ever in trouble or uncomfortable with a certain situation you can always turn to god and god is always there god is good like that amen so he's going to speak in ukraine or russian ukrainian because he has a hard time speaking english i am just uh one year 21 21 years in america only only 21. this is kind of like a day thanksgiving [Applause] [Music] and this word really touched me uh your future is very amazing your future is you know being young there was a misunderstanding in the family and you want to try to you know set some kind of rules or try to do it and try to tell yourself that you're right in everything [Music] when you but when you enter into the presence of the holy spirit everything changes he doesn't hesitate to come and again even after we fail to help us guide us then we must be thankful to him for that i appreciate and we must appreciate him for that and be thankful may god bless you and let's give an applause to the holy spirit english i want to introduce myself a little bit uh my name is sergey and this is god give me a family my wife alina my son stefan my daughter daniella and we have one more her name is valerie we move here from washington state from tacoma and we're really happy to be here so i want to appreciate uh first of all for working ac it's very important uh because that's our third week here and i tell my wife like without ac i feel like a melting ice cream it's like but a lot of floridians already tell just live here for two years and you're gonna be adapting and you're gonna be fine so but seriously i really appreciate god for blood of jesus christ because if not blood jesus christ you guys show us i mean we are like if worldly people will see this is kind of like a strange the people that know they don't know each other and they invite to their houses share the phones it's really strange for the people who don't know god but god give us blood and he connect us with his blood all together and makes us as a family and it's so important for us like no matter where we are we have a believers who connected with the blood of jesus christ and i really appreciate god that he gives his son and his blood because in his blood we have a lot we don't sometimes we don't even like realize how much we have in blood of jesus christ but we have freedom we have mercy we have wisdom we have victory so i appreciate god for blood and for your hospitality for your open heart like before i moved to florida a lot of people were like i know a lot some friends like oh you're gonna be like it people's different there and i was like i mean people is people everywhere what's the difference but you guys like family and i really appreciate that you guys accept us as a family thank you [Music] um thank you for the opportunity to be here and to join you guys on this night i am also very thankful for all of you we are so blessed and so encouraged that people that love god love each other and we are really grateful for that and i heard something as far as youth saying their testimonies that sometimes it's hard to make time for god's word and sometimes it's hard to make time to spend time in prayer i want to encourage you and with this quote that i found very helpful to me it says at first it may feel like freedom and fun to skimp on prayer and neglect the word but then we pay shallowness powerlessness vulnerability to sin preoccupation with trifles superficial relationships and frightening loss of interest in worship and the things of the spirit and this is really your time to sow because you will reap and just think about all the things you want to reap in the future do you want to reap shallowness or do you want to have a fruitful life and i want to encourage you in that to be consistently spending time in the word and time and prayer and time with each other thank you thank you for sharing and i guess pastor will finish us off yeah praise god praise god no first of all i really appreciate for this night it's a special night i didn't expect that but the lord made it through anatoly and each one had encouragement to share something from the heart it's very very good praise god i appreciate you i love you you're always in my heart in a prayer and you know it's very important when we say something the lord always encourage his people to be bold you know every time he said okay my daughter she was so i remember that that story because she she was sick 12 years and she couldn't go to the public with her sickness according to mosaic law but she had a faith and she came to jesus and when she received blessing healing she wants to just escape but she said no no who touched me who touched me and she she said you know okay i did okay explain she explained everything what jesus said he said go on daughter don't be so um hide yourself somewhere or people go on make a testimony not only here go home he always encourages us and i'm as a pastor and peter i know i we encourage you to continue on with the lord right now made it praise god this is the this is the great night great night and you know when we read the bible in the old testament very very special book song of songs and jesus uh we

let us just call out to god and thank him for who he is and that we were united today we were able to share all our share whatever was on our hearts whatever god put on our hearts and we were able to encourage each other and i believe that the first church was very similar in a way they were all gathered in a room together and they just had the holy spirit filled him with a word of encouragement or a revelation or maybe something that they went through and they needed prayer and they would pray together and encourage each other and i am thankful to god for this moment for this time with everyone here in this room that we were able to experience it a little bit have a taste of what the holy spirit has in store for us and i just i just want to for us all to pray and ask god for more of his spirit and more of his presence and more of unity in him as one body that wants to do his will father god we raise our voices to you lord we thank you so much for your greatness and your faithfulness and your holy spirit that is here with us your holy spirit that is in every one of us that speaks through us that encourages us that leads us and guides us in every thing we do and

with your hands stretched out to lift us up from whatever it is that we are going through and that you will use fellow believers and our friends and family members around us as the church as our support and we will encourage each other let us be this support system let us be this community let us be the people that you have chosen to encourage each other to grow together to be on fire for you

pray amen yeah let's give it up for for god in the holy spirit and for the church you may take your seats praise god for an awesome an awesome time an awesome night you know i never uh fail to realize how how god comes through on these services i don't know about you guys i mean i don't know how how it is you know how you see it but like for me it's just you know sometimes you know i'm organizing it and i can sometimes you know maybe there's not people enough people to share there's not a main word like today we really didn't have a main word and i was like thinking i'm like man is that normal like maybe i maybe i should try to figure something out and and it's it's just mind-blowing because i didn't i didn't tell tori to do what he did right i had no idea he was gonna do it and and there was no main word and i'm like and i was actually praying before i got here i'm like god you know there's gonna be so much time and there has to be a service people are going to come they're going to want something and and we i only had two people to share really like that we're going to actually share something and if they shared five minutes you know then what what would happen so there was a lot of faith that i put into god and just said lord you know there is no main word but you are going to make it happen whatever it is in your will will happen and you know god obviously sent oil he came up here and he made it happen that the service was you know exactly how it needed to be whether it's time or whether it's the edification that we needed in this time because i know i got what i needed for my spirit i feel edified and i'm ready for the week ahead of me and uh we will be actually gathering again for another service like this our uh english outreach service next month and it will be we haven't so it's going to be the 22nd of november so it's going to do it thanksgiving week um the sunday before thanksgiving week right yeah so that will be the next time we will be having the service so um you know this is i just want to remind all of us this is an outreach service so you know don't hesitate to invite friends invite people that you know maybe you come across during the week pray during the week maybe god will you know uh have someone you cross paths with and you eventually end up inviting them to the service or even people you know that maybe even go to this church encourage them to come out and you know so we can worship god together and we can experience his presence together so let's stand to our feet and just give thanks again and show our appreciation to him and for for giving us this service the leaders that we have and the body of christ around us having each other that encourage that we encourage each other and lift each other up let's just show all our thankfulness and appreciation and this final prayer to conclude the service let us pray father god we thank you we thank you so much for this for this service that you have given us for for everyone that makes it happen for the pastor for peter and for allowing me to to put things together lord but we know that no matter who it is doing it the most important thing is that you do it and that you show up and that you touch the hearts of the people here in this place god so it is an honor to to have these services and to glorify your name and to thank you and we appreciate you for showing up and touching the hearts of the people we appreciate you for using your people in order to touch others as one body unified in you jesus we thank you that you have given gifts and talents and and abilities for people to do the things that they do in order to edify the church lord and we want to continue in this and we want to move in this we also want to reach out to the people that are lost and broken in the dark world lord and we want to share this light with them that we have experienced today we thank you in jesus name we pray amen and that is the you may greet each other
