Strawberry Festival in Florida has 3 days to share the “ good news”. Please pray earnestly for people to be saved. Many come and hear the gospel and they need to have tender hearts.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9
God’s Word never fades, fails or falters. The one thing that we can trust in and rely on is the truth of the Bible.
Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Florida has surpassed the half way mark! Five more days to go.
There have been 120 decisions up until yesterday! Praise the Lord!
Please join me in prayer for the rest of this event, that people will be saved, volunteers will be filled with the spirit, and that the remaining shifts will be filled.
We still have empty opportunities for volunteers, especially the evening shifts and all day on Sunday.
A true witness delivereth souls: Proverbs 14:25a
Sometimes the task in front of us feels bigger than we are — whether it’s leading, serving, stepping out in faith, or simply facing another day. But our strength is not in ourselves. Our courage is not in our personality. It is in His presence.
If God has called you to it, He will walk with you through it.
So today, don’t shrink back. Don’t let fear make your decisions. Stand strong, move forward, and remember — you never go alone.
The Strawberry Festival continues today. Parade Day is an exciting day at the Festival. School is out for the children in Plant City. People from many States come to the Festival.
There have been 95 people who have trusted Jesus as their Savior in the last 4 days. Please continue to pray for the volunteers and especially the people passing by to be saved.
We do lift the name of Jesus when people come to the volunteer who explains the A,B, C plan of salvation.
Jesus said, And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. John 12:32
“The church exists for the glory of God, not for the entertainment of men.” Charles Haddon Spurgeon
In our generation that often seeks to be entertained, we must remember why the church truly exists.
It is not built on performance, programs, or personalities. It exists for one purpose — the glory of God.
When our worship shifts from pleasing Him to pleasing people, we lose our focus. May everything we do point upward, not inward.
Today is the third day of the strawberry festival in Plant city Florida. You could be sitting in Doug’s seat winning someone to the Lord.
There are still a few shifts open and we need trained volunteers to fill them.
If you live in the area and have been trained, don’t miss out on your opportunity.
Isn’t it comforting to know that God is already working before we even form the words?
Sometimes we carry burdens quietly. We think through the problem, we rehearse the prayer in our mind, and before we ever say “Lord, help,” He is already moving. This verse reminds me that our Heavenly Father is attentive. He is not distant. He is not distracted. He is listening — even to the unspoken cries of our heart.
There have been many times in my life when the answer showed up before I realized I had truly prayed about it. That’s just how good God is. He knows the need. He sees the concern. And He lovingly responds.
Today, whatever is on your heart, be encouraged. You are not trying to get God’s attention — you already have it.
Trust Him. He hears you.
March 1-11, 2007 SOS Ministries in partnership with 10 churches from the Plant City, Fl area saw God do miraculous things.
January and February were busy months for the staff at SOS Ministries in preparation for this event. Tom and Carolyn Curtis, Jay and Penny Ayres spent many training sessions with the 58 people who worked a shift at the booth. We are especially thankful for Don and Shirley Riegel who drove from Ohio to help us with training and at the Festival. God brought the increase.
He is faithful and rewards dedicated people who serve Him. Many of the workers led their first soul to Christ and their enthusiasm is catching. We are now in the process of follow-up. We appreciate the volunteers who are writing letters, making phone calls and personally visiting the new converts.
This was the first post to social media about the Strawberry Festival. SOS Events started with the festival at least 2 years earlier.
Today starts another year that SOS Events will be there.
If you are a trained volunteer in Florida, you can be a part of this great opportunity to witness at this event. Sign up for your 3 hour shift before you miss your blessing.
Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: Isaiah 43:10a
(All the participants in this article have gone on to Heaven except Carolyn and Penny. Imagine the people who will meet them who were saved at Strawberry Festival)
Are you willing to ask God to search your heart and your thoughts?
Sin starts in the mind. If we truly want to have a pure heart, then we need to ask God to reveal to us any thoughts that may not be pleasing to Him.
Wow! That can be a risky prayer. We may have to give up that secret sin.
But, the reward of knowing that we have pleased the Lord will far outweigh anything we want to hold on to.
