Your Invitation

March 21, 2014

When you see God at work around you, that is your invitation to commit your life to that work and join Him.
Th greatest work God wants us to do is to believe on Jesus, then go and tell others that they may believe also.
God is at work in SOS Events Ministries. We invite you to join with us.

John 6:28-29
Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

“All Hail the Power of Jesus Name”

March 20, 2014

“All Hail The Power Of Jesus’ Name” is a hymn written in the 1700’s by Edward Perronet, but even though his testimony is wonderful, it is the power of the words in this song and the Holy Spirit conviction that has the power to change lives.
A missionary named E. P. Scott went to India to witness to a savage tribe. His friends tried to warn him of the danger, but being led by God he went.
One day he found himself surrounded by a large group of warriors with spears pointed at his heart.
Scott prayed, picked up his violin and started to sing the words to this hymn.
“All hail the power of Jesus name! Let angels prostrate fall; Bring forth the royal diadem, And crown Him Lord of all….”
The 3rd verse, “Let every kindred, every tribe, on this terrestrial ball, To Him all majesty ascribe, And crown Him Lord of all…”
When he finished singing he opened his eyes and the warriors were standing, spears lowered, some in tears. He spent the next few years evangelizing that tribe.

Philippians 2:10
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

“Everyone has a knee-mail account, but not everyone uses it.”

1 Thessalonians 5:17
Pray without ceasing.

Sowing Seeds

March 18, 2014

Many of the verses in the Bible can be applied to our lives in different ways. The Holy Spirit uses God’s Word to bring us to the place that He wants us to be.
In context the following verse is talking about our giving of money, however, it can also be used in many areas of our lives.
In a parable, Jesus spoke of seed and the sower as a witness, and I like to think that this verse can be applied to witnessing also.
We will never see God work in our lives to win souls if we never witness to anyone.

2 Corinthians 9:6
But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

St.Patrick’s Day

March 17, 2014

It is known that St. Patrick was born in Britain to wealthy parents near the end of the fourth century. He is believed to have died on March 17, around 460 A.D. Although his father was a Christian deacon, it has been suggested that he probably took on the role because of tax incentives and there is no evidence that Patrick came from a particularly religious family. At the age of 16, Patrick was taken prisoner by a group of Irish raiders who were attacking his family’s estate. They transported him to Ireland where he spent six years in captivity. During this time, he worked as a shepherd, outdoors and away from people. Lonely and afraid, he turned to his religion for solace, becoming a devout Christian. (It is also believed that Patrick first began to dream of converting the Irish people to Christianity during his captivity.)
On March 17 many people celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with parades, parties and many other activities.
Much of what we think about this day is tradition of men. God wants us to worship Him in spirit and truth.

John 4:24
God is a Spirit:and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Who is God Looking For?

March 16, 2014

“GOD IS LOOKING FOR IMPERFECT MEN and WOMEN who have learned to walk in… dependence on the Holy Spirit… Believers who have… TAKEN TIME TO INVESTIGATE everything God has to offer in this life.” ~ Charles Stanley

Psalms 14:2
The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men,
to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God.

Jane is pictured here with a new convert at the Flea Market. Jane loves soul winning at events. Many senior citizens feel they have deserved a rest and do not want to spend time witnessing.
Jane is now investing her time, for the many rewards she will lay at Jesus feet in Heaven.
Her testimony is that she never won anyone to The Lord until she started working with SOS.
God has blessed SOS Events with soul winners of all ages. The youngest to witness in a booth was 12 years old and there have been some that are in their 70’s and 80’s.
Anyone can learn to witness using the simple “3 Things God Can Not Do.”
The joy of seeing a soul come to Christ is the greatest pleasure we can have here on earth.
Contact SOS for more information if you would like to learn more.

John 4:36
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.

Jesus Instructions for Witnessing

March 14, 2014

Jesus taught and trained His disciples for 3 years the art of soul winning.
After Jesus was resurrected He instructed His disciples to stay in Jerusalem and wait for the promise of the Father.

Acts 1:6-8
When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
And he said unto them, “It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”

SOS Events is scheduling 3 hour trainings this spring. If you are coming to Florida and would like to come to a training contact SOS: email info@sosevents.org.

Are You a Fisher of Men?

March 13, 2014

As Jesus walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw 2 men, Simon Peter and Andrew, his brother. They were fishermen and Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
Soul winners are made, not born. To be an effective witness, you must be taught, trained and motivated by the Holy Spirit.
One of the purposes of SOS Events is to teach Christians how to be taught to witness for The Lord. If you need to be a better witness, SOS has the tools and training to help you. Contact us by phone: 813-494-7512 or email: info@sosevents.org.

Matthew 4:19
And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

This Is My Father’s World

March 12, 2014

This morning while looking for something to share with those of you who follow the blog, I came across something that took me back to my childhood.
Looking in the history of hymns, there is one I remember singing in church as a child, “This Is My Father’s World”.
I was born and grew up in Lockport, NY and discovered that Maltbie Babcock, author of the hymn, was the Pastor of the Presbyterian church in Lockport when he wrote the hymn back in the 1890’s.
This is a beautiful old hymn that I have not heard since I was a child.

“This is my Father’s world, O let me ne’er forget,
That though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father’s world, The battle is not done,
Jesus who died shall be satisfied, And earth and Heaven be one.”

Psalms 50:b
For the world is Mine, and the fulness thereof.
