31 July 2013 Novi Sad, Serbia [Yvonne Bauwens, tedNEWS] The burning lights of the Crucifix as it rose up above the stage glowed warmly and we got the show on the road for the second evening meeting here at AYCongress in Novi Sad. The exceptionally high standard from the daily drama team, musicians and singers beats any X-Factor performance as they lead the 3,000 participants in song and uplifting worship! The praise stayed not only in the main hall but overflowed like the love in Pastor Dejan’s cup as several hundred joined in hand and heart to raise the roof of the Afterglow session.
‘Side By Side We Stood,
In song at Afterglow
Praising our Awesome God
Gathered round the guitar and our drummer-bro!
Lord, We Come To You
To Lift Your Name On High!
Celebrate Jesus, Celebrate!
Remembering the cross on which You died.
The Power Of One,
Each singing their part
You are Mighty To Save!
So please, Lord, Open The Eyes Of Our Heart!
You Are My Desire,
On the new earth we shall meet
Soon and Very Soon,
We will see the Prince of Peace!
Kumbaya My Lord,
Hear our harmonious prayer
Countries sing together
For tonight’s Afterglow, will YOU be there?’
Wednesday evening’s message was brought to us by the enthusiastic Pastor Matthew Gamble who, encouraged our young people to dig deeper into the book of Ephesians. With reference to chapter 1 verse 13, which says: ‘Christ also brought you the truth, which is the good news about how YOU can be saved! With your faith strong and with the Holy Spirit’s signature seal, there’s no doubting that YOU are a child of God!’
Will you take the Gamble, the leap of faith and believe that before you were even born, God had an amazing plan for your life?
Will you take a Gamble on giving your all to the One who loves you? Religion teaches you that you have to earn salvation; the Bible shows us that we have to accept it. Will you take a Gamble and accept Jesus, today?
