The Ark of the Covenant is the most essential piece of furniture in the Israelite tabernacle or temple. Hebrews 9:4 says the Ark contained the tablets of the covenant, manna, and Aaron’s rod. It was one of the most instrumental symbols of faith and God’s presence. The Lord commanded Moses to build an ark of acacia wood, an excellent wood available in Sinai. At the time, the wood was also used as an offering to the Lord. “And they shall make an ark of acacia wood; two and a half cubits shall be its length, a cubit and a half its width, and a cubit and a half its height. –Exodus 25:10, NKJV. Like the acacia used as an offering for the Ark of the Covenant, we, His greatest creation, may be a living offering to Him. #shorts #OfferingtoTheLord #ArkofCovenant #GodsTabernacle Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cHX0MwNp8M

Blood is a symbol of life. As Christians, we believe the blood of Christ has played an important role in our lives since the beginning. It gives us hope for eternal life. The blood of Christ atoned for our sins. It paid for the transgressions of all humanity. The Lamb of God freed everyone from the bondage of sin. The blood of Jesus serves as a reminder that Satan has already been defeated. Satan and sin have lost control of us. Instead, a promise of eternal life will be given to those who will follow and live a life of obedience. #shorts #HopeOfEternalLife #TheBloodofJesus #LambofGod Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-fUodCuCZU

Some of us have experienced anxiety throughout the lockdown. Peter, in the Bible, also struggled with anxiety and self-doubt which can make him relatable to us now. Jesus let Peter have his humbling experiences because He knew Peter would need to learn from the storm. Like us, Peter was a work in progress. If God has the power to do amazing things like removing Peter’s self-doubt, He can do it for us! More than 2 billion people worldwide believe in the Bible and God’s power to change lives for the better. Just like the story of Peter, all we have to do is to have an unwavering confidence in Jesus. Whenever we are frightened, pray to our Almighty Savior. To follow our official social media accounts, just follow the links below:

This week on ANN. ANN sat down with Dr. Katia Reinert to discuss maintaining a healthy lifestyle during the new year and the Youth Alive Ministry. Every Adventist member has been praying that this year would be different than last, that COVID would end, and we would be able to see our family and friends again safely. While many restrictions have eased, COVID-19 still looms over almost everyone, and everyone faces another year of uncertainty. Even uncertainty prevails, God is ultimately in control, and His deep love, mercy, and grace are with His children always. Adventist Church’s prayer initiative 10 Days of Prayer will happen from January 5-15. 10 Days of Prayer is the time when Seventh-day Adventists from all over the world come together to pray corporately. ANN sat down with Jonathan Walter, communication manager for the Ministerial Association, to talk about the Adventist Church’s Believe His Prophets Bible reading program and the theme of “The Three Angels Call to Prayer.” March 19 is Global Youth Day. Global Youth Day is when young people from all over the world take the time to “Be the Sermon” in their communities. This year’s theme is “Loving the Forgotten.” The Youth Department sends this report. Adventist Church will be having its 10 Days of Prayer from January 5-15. The Church will finish its Believe His Prophets reading plan on January 13, and it will start again on January 14. More information can be found at revivalandreformation.org. On January 18, the Adventist Church will hold a special General Conference Session, with just one agenda item—to allow GC Session to be held online, due to COVID-19 travel restrictions which could impact GC Session this June in St. Louis. Also, the Children’s Virtual Global Conference will be held on January 27 and 28. On April 12 and 13, the Adventist Church executive committee will hold its annual Spring Meetings. And finally, from June 6 through 11, the Seventh-day Adventist World Church will have its General Conference Session. The meetings will be held in St. Louis, Missouri. Most people make a few New Year’s resolutionsーthey want to renew their relationship with God, continue their relationships with others, and get healthy. ANN talked to Dr. Katia Reinert, Associate Director of Health Ministries for the World Church, about maintaining a healthy lifestyle and the mental health initiative for young people, Youth Alive.
