1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,120
We are absolutely thrilled to 
let you know that God has 

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:04,840
answered our prayers for a brand
new building. 

3
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,440
I'm actually standing at the 
side of Maranatha Bible Church's

4
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,360
future home, and we want to 
begin by giving God maximum 

5
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:12,520
glory for this miraculous 
provision. 

6
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:15,840
Many of you know, for the past 
four years we've been believing 

7
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,600
and waiting and seeking the Lord
for a new place. 

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,480
And in such a short amount of 
time, he came through. 

9
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:24,880
And time in this video does not 
suffice to be able to give all 

10
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,480
the details leading up to this 
moment. 

11
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:31,000
But what we do have before us is
a sanctuary with ample room for 

12
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,480
growth, plenty of Sunday school 
rooms for our growing families. 

13
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:38,160
And even on this land, there is 
potential for future projects. 

14
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,520
And including on this property 
is a parking lot that can fit 

15
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,520
nearly 300 cars. 
These are just some of the 

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,960
features of why this provision 
is so exciting. 

17
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:50,840
And we're believing Him to do 
even more. 

18
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,160
One of the things that we are 
trusting him for in this new 

19
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,920
chapter is that we would enter 
into it without any need for a 

20
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,040
loan, without getting into any 
debt. 

21
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,720
And so we're asking people to do
2 things. 

22
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,120
Number one, to pray. 
This building is the result of 

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,120
much prayer. 
God has heard our petitions and 

24
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,000
we believe that as we continue 
to seek Him, He will hear our 

25
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,760
cries. 
So please join us in seeking the

26
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:22,080
Lord in this transition #2 if 
there is in your heart a desire 

27
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,840
to partner with us financially, 
you can do so by clicking the 

28
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,880
link in the description below 
and find different ways to be 

29
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,760
able to give. 
In order for us to enter into 

30
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,040
this phase without any financial
burden, we would need to raise 

31
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,520
another $1.3 million. 
And we believe that God can do 

32
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,160
it. 
He has done again so much up to 

33
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,480
this point. 
Here's one more note to make 

34
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,040
before we end this video. 
Although Maranatha is entering 

35
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,480
into a new building, we want to 
assure you that nothing is going

36
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,000
to change about this ministry. 
And what I mean by that is we 

37
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,440
will still be committed to 
preaching the whole Council of 

38
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,760
God. 
We will be a ministry that is 

39
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,160
dedicated to mining the depths 
of the Scriptures and to showing

40
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,760
as many people as possible the 
wonders and the glories of God 

41
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,919
through His Word. 
And so yes, this is a new phase,

42
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,600
but it's only going to Foster 
and facilitate what God has been

43
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,960
doing over the few years and we 
are excited to see how God is 

44
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,600
going to touch many more souls 
as He has provided us a place to

45
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,360
do it. 
Thank you for all your prayers 

46
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,480
and all your support. 
May the Lord bless you in Jesus 

47
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:26,640
name.
