Jesus left His mark on the world through the cross. He became sin for the whole world, so that we might know our living God. It was through substitution, as He took our place on the cross, that we receive eternal life. That is how much GOD LOVES YOU!


Jesus left a mark on the world through His ministry in many ways - teaching, preaching, and healing. The world we live in today has been impacted by the teachings and life of Jesus. His love heals, restores, and sets us free, on the inside and in our bodies.


On your way to somewhere better in Jesus, there are things you must develop in your life. One thing that will help us stay on course is having momentum. Momentum makes the hard things easier, and helps you continue in the right direction in life. Seek God first every day, and He will give you the ability to reach your potential.


When you know where you are going in life, it helps to give value to everything you do. And there are things we need to reach a place that is better in our lives. We need excitement, that will give us the motivation to move forward. And we need the right direction in life. When you know the direction you need to go, it makes every decision easier. Spend time with the Lord, and He will show you the way to go.


As you go on our journey in life, do not let temptations pull you away from your Heavenly Father! When you do, you will end up at the places in life you never thought you would. But thankfully our Father God will always welcome us back, and cover us again in His amazing love, when we run back to Him.


God has a path for you to go on in your life, and Jesus has paid the price so you can walk it out. But to go where God has called you, you must leave your comfort zone, and step into something new. And to do that, you will have to be strong and courageous on the inside, so you can push forward to something better in Jesus.


Even when things are going well in our lives, there are times we get tired, and need to rest and be recharged. Gods Word tells us ways we can exchange our emptiness, and receive a full supply from the Lord. You can get from the presence of God, all you need to keep going to the place God has called you to be. The Lord will be with you and take you to a better place.


There are times on our journey that there will be sudden attacks to try to get us to quit. We need to keep our focus on Jesus and stay on the course He has called us to be on. God will strengthen you on the inside, to get through the pressures on the outside. When you are spiritually strong, there will be things in life you can just shake off, and keep going.


When following your path in life, there will be storms that come. Make sure you are doing all you can to keep your faith ready, and trust Jesus through every storm. The storms of your life are not from God, but God can use the storms to bring something good for you. You can make it to the other side, and life will be better.


To get to where God wants us to be, you need to know where you are at now in your life. God has good things waiting for you on the way you are to go, and with Holy Spirits wisdom and being obedient to Gods Word, you will go to better places in life.


Olemaks kindel, et me oleme Jumala seatud teerajal, on meil vaja endalt küsida: "Kuhu see tee mind viib?" Kui elu surve tuleb ja paneb proovile sinu usu Jumalasse, hoia oma silmad Jeesusel, siis sa kasvad ja saad tugevamaks. Luba Püha Vaimu tuulel oma ellu puhuda ja suunata sind elu teekonnal. ----- To make sure we are on the path that God has for us, we need to ask ourself “Where will this road take me?”. When the press of life comes on you and tests your faith in God, keep your eyes on Jesus and you will grow and become stronger. Let the Holy Spirit wind blow into your life, and direct you on your life journey.


Et täita seda, milleks Jumal on meid kutsunud, on meil vaja visiooni. Pastor Barry räägib koguduse eesmärgist ja fookusest, millest nähtub EVK koguduse visioon aastaks 2024. ----- We need to have vision to accomplish what it is that God has called us to do. Pastor Barry tells us what our purpose and our focus is as a church, and that reveals our church vision for 2024 at EVK.


Jumala õnnistustes käimiseks pead sa kasvama oma usus andmisesse ja vastuvõtmisesse. Kui sa sisened uude aega, põhineb sinu lõikus seemnel, mida sa külvasid eelmisel hooajal. Sa saad anda ainult seda, mis sul on. Me usaldame, et Jumal viib meid külluse paika, et me võiksime anda veelgi rohkem. ----- To walk in the blessings of God, you need to grown in your faith to given and your faith to receive. As you enter new seasons of your life, your harvest will be based upon the seed sown in the last season. You can only give what you have, and we are trusting God to increase us to a place of abundance, so we can give more.


Jõulude vägi ei seisne üksnes Jeesuse sündimises. Jõulude vägi on see, et Jumal oli rääkinud oma sünnist tuhandeid aastaid varem ja Isand inspireeris prohveteid Tema sünnist kirjutama aastasadu enne Tema sündi. Tema sündimise teeb väeliseks viis, kuidas Ta suri ja üles tõusis — see kõik toimus täpselt nii nagu Isand oli öelnud. ----- The power of Christmas is not just that Jesus was born. The power of Christmas is that God had spoken of His birth thousands of years before, and prophets were inspired by the Lord to write about his birth hundreds of years before He was born. What makes His birth so powerful, was the way He died and rose again — it all happened just as the Lord said it would happen.


Kotka tiibadel liuglemiseks on meil vaja igal nädalal eraldada üks päev ja pidada seda pühaks. Pühenda aega Jumalale, õpi Piiblit, ülista, teeni ja puhka. Meil on vaja mõista ka allumist ja meelevalda. Allu neile, kelle Jumal on pannud sinu üle loomulikult ja vaimselt. Allu valitsuse seatud reeglitele nii hästi kui suudad, ja oma pastorile, kes õpetab sulle Jumala Sõna. Kui sa õpid meelevallale allumist, oskad sa paremini kasutada omaenda meelevalda ja olla edukas. Liugle! ----- To soar on wings of Eagles we need to set aside one day each week, and make it holy. Dedicating time to God, to study the Bible, worship, serve, and to rest. And we also need to understand submission and authority. Submit to the ones God has placed over you naturally, and spiritually. Submit to the government rules, to the best of your ability. And to your pastor who teach you the Word of God. If you learn how to submit to authority, you will know better how to operate in your authority, and be a success. Soar!


Et liuelda kotka tiibadel, tuleb meil rakendada põhimõtteid, mis Jumal meile andnud on. Puhka, et sa võiksid kasvada ja füüsiliselt uueneda. Heida endalt maha iga raskus, mis sind aeglustab, parandades meelt oma pattudest. Ja hoia oma ühendus Jeesusega värske, et Jumala elu ja vägi võiksid sinu ellu voolata. ----- To soar on wings of eagles, we need to be applying the principles God gave us. Rest, so you can grow and be renewed physically. Strip off the weight of anything that slows you down, by repenting of your sins. And keep your connection with Jesus fresh, so the life and power of God can flow into your life.


Selleks, et me vaimselt võiksime kotkatiibadel liuelda, peame pingutama, et elada nii, nagu Jumal on ette näinud. Me peame pidevalt palvetama Püha Vaimu abiga. Me peame toituma Jumala Sõnast ja laskma sellel saada osaks meie elust. Ja me peame teistele rääkima tõtt, et lisada nende eludesse head asju ja neid paljundada. ----- For us to soar on the wings of eagles spiritually, we need to make an effort to live as God designed. We need to Pray continually, with the help of the Holy Spirit. We need to eat the Word of God, and get it to be part of our lives. And we need to speak truth to others so that we add to and multiply good things in their lives.


Et elus tõusta ja liuelda, ei saa sa endale lubada nõrgaks jäämist, tüdimust ja kurtmist, sest see mõjutab sinu nägemist. Kui sa oma nägemise - visiooni kaotad, ei suuda sa näha Jumala plaani oma elu jaoks. Sul on vaja joosta Jeesuse juurde, et leida uut tugevust ja väge, et su nägemus oleks selge ja sa võiksid näha, kuhu sa teel oled. Seetõttu on sul tõusmiseks vaja häält teha - laula, hõiska, mõtiskle, palveta. ----- To rise and soar in life, you can’t allow yourself to get weak, weary, and complain, because it will affect your vision. When you lose your vision, you can’t see God’s plan for your life. You need to run to Jesus to find new strength and power, so your vision is clear and you can see where you are going. So to rise up, you need to make noise — sing, shout, meditate, pray.


Jumal tugevdab sind, et sa võiksid tõusta üle iga takistuse oma elus. Me oleme suutelised jõudma paika, kus vabalt liuelda, kui me hoiame oma pilgu Jeesusel. Peame jääma tänulikuks Jumalale, teades, et meie vaevanägemisel Isanda jaoks on tähendus, ja seisma tugevalt usus. ----- God will strengthen you to rise above any obstacle in your life. We are able to get to a place where we can soar, when we look to Jesus. We need to stay thankful to God, knowing our efforts for the Lord have meaning, and stand strong in our faith.


Me peame austama Jumala ligiolu ja looma keskkonna, milles Jumal saab liikuda. Jumal saab teha imesid meie elus, kui me ootame, et ta tuleks, ja meie südamed on täis usku. Samuti nagu Jeesus eraldus uskmatust täis rahvahulkadest, ümbritsedes ennast usuinimestega, peame ka meie koguma enda ümber usuinimesi ja ootama, et Jumal muudab meid oma ligiolus. ----- We need to reverence the presence of God, and create an atmosphere for God to move in. God can do miracles in our lives when we are expecting Him to show up, and our hearts are full of faith. Just as Jesus would remove the crowds who were full of unbelief, and surround Himself with people of faith. We also need to surround ourselves with people of faith, and expect God to change us in His presence.


Me peame austama Jumala ligiolu. Kui Jumal ilmub võidmise ja väega, kui sa tead, et ta on kohal, pead sa seda hetke iga kord väärtustama. Jumala ligiolu saabub, kui Jumala Sõna õpetatakse ja kui inimesed tulevad kokku ühtsuses Teda ülistama. Jõua paika, kus sa himustad Jumala ligiolu oma elus iga päev ja oled sõltuv Tema ligiolust. ----- We need to have a reverence for the presence of God. When God shows up in anointing and power, when you know He is there, you need to value that moment every time. The presence of God shows up when the Word of God is taught, and when people come together in unity to worship Him. Get to the place you crave the presence of God in your life every day, and depend of His presence.


Me peame austama Jumalat oma pingutusega ning tegema kõike usus. Mida äärmuslikum on meie pingutus, seda ekstreemsemad on tulemused, kui Jumal meie vajadusi täidab. Koos Jumalaga on alati tee sinu imeni ja läbi usu sa leiad selle tee. Seejärel anna oma parim, et austada Jumalat. ----- We need to honor God with our effort, and do all that we do by faith. The more extreme we are in our efforts, the more extreme the results will be when God meets our needs. With God, there is always a way to get to your miracle, and by faith you will find the way. Then give your very best effort in honor to God.


Me peame austama Jumalat kui oma abi elus, sest me oleme piiratud. Et kogeda, mida Jumal sinu jaoks igatseb, on sul vaja heita oma koormad Isanda peale. Ja mõista, et sa vajad oma ellu teisi inimesi, sa ei ole mõeldud elama seda elu üksinda. Seejärel alanda ennast, et võtta vastu Jumala arm - mis on Jumala üleloomulik abi. ----- We need to honor God as our help in life, because we have limitations. To experience the life God desires for you, you need to give your life burdens to the Lord. And realize you need other people in your life, you are not meat to live this life alone. And then humble yourself to receive the grace of God — which is God’s supernatural help.


Kui sul on õige Isanda kartus, oled sa elus rahul. Üks viisidest Jumala austamiseks on austada Teda oma allikana kõiges. Jumalal on külluslik varustus ja Ta igatseb sind õnnistada, sul tuleb lihtsalt Isandat austada ja usaldada, et Tema varustab sind. Siis teeb Ta su jalad emahirve jalgade sarnaseks ja paneb sind käima kõrgustikel. ----- When you have a proper fear of the Lord, you will be content in life. One of the ways we honor God is to honor God as or source for everything in life. God has an abundant supply and desires to bless you, you just have to honor the Lord and trust Him to provide. And then He will cause your feet to be like a deer, and you will tread on the heights.


Isanda kartust tuleb õppida piiblist. Siis võime leida arusaamise, kuidas Jumalat austada ja Tema suhtes aukartuses olla. Jumala Sõna annab meile juhiseid ja manitsusi ning ütleb, kuidas peaksime oma elu elama, et olla õnnistatud. Meile tuleb õpetada Jumala Sõna õigesti, et võiksime leida teadmise selle kohta, mida Jumal meilt ootab. ----- How to fear of the Lord is something we must learn from the Bible. Then we gain understanding on how to honor and reverence God! The Word of God gives us instruction and correction, and it tells us how we are to live our lives so that we can be blessed. We must be taught the Word of God correctly for us to gain knowledge of what God wants from us.


Me peame valima Isanda kartuse - et austada Jumalat ja õppida järgnema Püha Vaimu juhtimisele. Jumala Vaim juhib meid sisemise rahu või selle puudumise kaudu. Me peame kuulama Vaimu tarkust ja juhatust, et Ta võiks juhtida meid Jumala õnnistustesse meie igas elu valdkonnas. ----- We need to choose to fear the Lord — to honor God, and learn to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit of God will lead us by giving us inner peace, or by no peace. We need to listen to the Spirits wisdom and guidance, so that He can lead us to God’s blessings in every area of our life.


Et elada parimat elu, on meil vaja Isanda kartust. Mitte selles mõttes, et sa oled Jumala ees hirmul, vaid oma suhtes Jumalaga peame Teda austama ja respekteerima. Meie enda kasuks peame armastama, mida Jumal armastab, vihkama, mida Jumal vihkab, ning armastama, kui Jumal ütleb meile, mida teha. Siis saab Jumal meie elusid õnnistada ja meil on Tema abi. ----- To live our best life, we need to have the fear of the Lord. Not meaning that you are afraid of God, but in our relationship with God, you need to have honor and reverence for Him. For our good own, we need to love what God loves, hate what God hates, and love it when God tells us what to do. Then God will bless our lives, and we will have His help.


Peetrus: Oled sa kunagi arvanud, et tegid midagi, mis diskvalifitseeris sind olema Jumala poolt kasutatud? Peetrus koges seda ja ta õpetab meile, kuidas kurat üritab meie ja meie tuleviku kutsumise vastu töötada, kuid me peame ennast selleks ette valmistama ja mitte laskma ennast hävitada. Sa pead teadma, et Jumala igatsus sind kasutada ei muutu kunagi. Kui sa alandad ennast Isanda ees, siis Ta taastab sind ja tõstab sind üles, et Ta võiks sind veelgi rohkem kasutada. ----- Peter: Have you ever thought you did something that disqualified you from being used by God? Peter experienced this, and he teaches us how the devil tries to work against us, and our future calling, but we can be prepared and not be destroyed. You need to know God’s desire to use you never changes. If you will humble yourself before the Lord, He will restore you, and lift you up, so He can use you more.


Paulus: Oled sa kunagi mõelnud, et teed midagi õigesti, või midagi, mida Jumal tahtis, et sa teeksid, kuid siis mõistsid, et sa eksisid? Palulus oli kõrgelt haritud ja mõjukas ning tegi kõik endast oleneva, et teenida Isandat, ta isegi tappis kristlasi selle eest, et need ütlesid Jeesuse olevat Jumala. Siis kohtus ta Jeesusega ja kõik muutus. Paulus elas armus, ta toetus armule iga päev ja oli õnnelik inimene. Jumala arm hoiab sind elus ja toob sind läbi raskuste. ----- Paul: Have you ever thought you were doing something right, or something that God wanted you to do, and then found out you were wrong? Paul was highly educated and powerful, and he did everything he could to serve the Lord, He even killed Christians for saying Jesus was God. Then he met Jesus, and everything changed for Paul. Paul lived on grace, he relied on grace every day, and he was a happy man. It is the grace of God that will hold you in life, and get you through difficulties.


Taavet: Alanda ennast Jumala ees ja Ta ülendab sind! Kuigi isegi Taavet ei olnud täiuslik, oli Jumalal tema jaoks plaan. Keegi teine ei näinud tema suurust alguses. Aga tema usu ja julguse tõttu nägid varsti kõik, et Isand oli koos temaga. Hoia oma suhe Isandaga tugev, isegi kui sa vigu teed, ja Jumal saab sind jätkuvalt kasutada! ----- David: When God looks at you, He looks at the heart, so stay humble! Even though David was not perfect, God had a plan for David. No one else could see greatness in him at first. But because of his faith and courage, soon everyone could see that the Lord was with him. Keep your relationship with the Lord strong, even when you make mistakes, and God will continue to use you!
