TESTIMONIES
Testimony
from bro. Jos de Jong (The Netherlands)
Dear Brother
Reiersen,
God
cannot steer a vessel that is standing still… So my testimony is that I’m
moving now, and the Lord can steer me!
Many
greetings to you from Almere - Holland. I really enjoyed the ‘Young
Man’s Conference’ last weekend in Seaby - Denmark. We had a good trip
with the 11 brothers from Holland and we were richly blessed in this
(too short) conference. It was good to have the five fold ministry in
our midst. There was a good balance between encouraging and warning in
the word. We have to come from a ‘male’ to a man of God! And I am
waiting to fit in the robe of Elijah.
Last Tuesday
and also on Sunday, different brothers gave their testimony in our
church. Every believer could see that we had a good time in Denmark.
May the Lord
richly bless you for the work you have done for us!I shall not me moved!
Sincerely
yours!
Jos de Jong
Testimony
from bro. Edwin Saathof (The Netherlands)
Dear Brother
Reiersen,
I would like you to know that the weekend in Denmark was wonderful to
me. I really can see that I came out different. My wife
said to me that a nice atmosphere was around me. She also saw that God has
doing a great thing.
I heard so much practical things in the different roles we have: as
husband, father, colleges (at work). I have much more assurance in
handling the Word in my daily life than before.
Thank you for the organizing and may God bless you in your personal
life. Thank you!
Greetings
Testimony
from bro. Egbert Korhorn (The Netherlands)
Dear Brother
William,
I will greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I had a wonderful
time there and I have learned a lot about our Lord Jesus. Also I found
the fellowship with other brothers from other countries very special.
It was like we know each other a long time. I had not the feeling that we are different but
more the same. And this is true because we are no longer a Dutch man or
from Norway or from England, we are all from the kingdom of our Lord
Jesus Christ. Together we were one in worship. I had really enjoyed it. And I will thank you for organizing
this meeting.
The Lord Bless you and all people who helped you.
Testimony from
bro. Vitaly (Lithuania)
Greetings in the Name of the
Lord!
I have successfully received the set of CDs of Saeby meetings from you.
Thank you very much for sending them.
I feel that I want to say some words about the Young Men's Meetings.
Some
time has gone since then, and I wanted my experience to be time-tested.
The
Good Seed was planted then, now I feel something stirring inside.
Whenever I
think of the Saeby meetings a song comes to my mind, "Change my heart o
God, make it ever true...may it be like You". This was indeed the motto
of
that convention. It is still effective in my heart. More than a month
passed, but the touch of the Lord never ceases to call out in my heart
since
then. I feel privileged indeed for having been able to take part in this
convention.
I wish you abundant God's blessings. There are not so much ministers who
have on their hearts this special pull to help the young brothers in
this
way.
Your brother in Christ
Testimony
from a brother in Belgium
Dear bro. Reiersen,
Just a
little note to show our appreciation for the convention in
Denmark. It was surely a great blessing and encouragement to
be directed by mature and experienced ministers of the Gospel!
The atmosphere of unity and brotherhood was very remarkable and shows
that it is truly blessed when brethren dwell together, as the Bible
says!
Truly, many
questions have been soundly answered by the revealed Word.
There's no answer like God's answer from His
Word! It's so inspiring when the Lord answers to everyone's
personal needs. For many questions and struggles
that I've had through the last years, the Lord answered in
abundance.... And having heard many others, they can all testify
the same. Now we are home again, we continue with a
more solid conviction to continue more fervently, supporting our pastor
and the local ministry here in Ghent.
Dear
brother, thank you so much for doing what the Lord had put upon
your heart! You will surely see wonderful results of the seeds
that are sown. May the Lord Jesus richly bless and strengthen you in all you will still
undertake, be it personally, or in both family and church!
Your brother
in Christ
Testimony from bro. Erlend
Førsund (Norway)
Dear Brother William
My anticipations prior to this convention were tremendous, and I really
felt an urge to go to Denmark to learn more about God and how to serve
his kingdom in a greater way. On our way to Denmark we experienced
Satans attempts to hinder us from reaching the conference. We had
booked a
place on the ferry from Kristiansand (Norway) to Hirtshals (Denmark)
and we were the second car to drive into the large ship.
Unfortunately, the ship had to return to the
quay only mintues after the departure due to mechanical problems. This
resulted in a 6-hour-long wait, during which several
attempts were made to fix the problem. But they couldn't! Eventually,
we were allowed to leave the ship. I must admit that I was a bit
frustrated ... and disappointed. It seemed like we would never get to
Denmark.
To be brief, things turned out to the better. We drove eastward to
Larvik and caught the evening boat to Fredrikshavn, a voyage that took
all night. Against all odds we also got a cabin, though there were no
vacant cabins (we put our names on the list). I believe God made a way
for us, so that
we wouldn't be exhausted and tired the following saturday, which would
be a sermon-marathon.
We arrived at the conference site one day later than planned, in the
morning, before the meetings started. We had only missed the Friday
evening session.
The meetings were great! After my experience of receiving the Holy
Ghost in July this summer, I have had a greater desire to immerse
myself in the Word of God. The issues that were preached over during
these sessions in Denmark were both inspiring and practical. I learned
a lot about practical things, like spiritual warfare, how to seek Gods
will and how to expose Satans agenda.
Meeting other dedicated young men, but also more experienced mature men
was very uplifting. I think especially the setting was very right for
this conference. Focused on the Word only, reminding me of the
scripture in Matthew 24:28; "For wheresoever the carcase is, there will
the eagles be gathered together."
Today I have a greater desire to seek Gods will, and I believe he is
preparing me and others for service in the body of Jesus Christ. This
is the only thing that matters in life; serving God! Amen.
God bless you

"And, brother, when I get to glory, I want
to walk up to Uriah and shake his hands, and say, "God be praised, for
your testimony meant something to me in my earthly journey."
I want to walk over to Daniel, and say, "You know, Daniel, when you
went in there fearless before those lions, that testimony meant
something to me." Yes, sir."
