Quote by John R. Rice. 1896-1980
“To leave this matter of saving souls to preachers is not only heartless; it is inexcusably wicked.”
John R. Rice was a great man of God, pastor, evangelist, author, song writer and soul winner. Founder of ” Sword of the Lord” newspaper.
He was a man of few words in personal conversation but a powerhouse in the pulpit. One of his favorite Bible verse was Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life;
and he that winneth souls is wise.

January 21, 2015God Heals
January 20, 2015
The Lord once again has given back health to Tom, founder of SOS Events Ministry. Tom had been housebound for almost 7 months. Some days during those months there was almost a certainty that Tom would be home with the Lord within hours.
But God is not finished with Tom yet. In the last month, he has been gaining strength, is able to walk without cane or walker and is back to going to events to win people to the Lord.
This picture of Tom was taken last weekend at the Big Top Flea Market in Tampa, Florida.
Praise the Lord for His healing power.
James 5:16
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
My Tribute by Andrea Crouch
January 19, 2015How can I say thanks
for the things You have done for me?
Things so undeserved,
yet You gave to prove Your love for me;
the voices of a million angels
could not express my gratitude.
All that I am and ever hope to be,
I owe it all to Thee.
[Chorus 1:]
To God be the glory,
to God be the glory,
to God be the glory
for the things He has done.
[Chorus 2:]
With His blood He has saved me,
with His power He has raised me;
to God be the glory
for the things He has done.
[Bridge:]
Just let me live my life,
let it pleasing, Lord to Thee,
and if I gain any praise,
let it go to Calvary.
Ephesians 5:20
Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Plant City Flea Market
January 15, 2015
Every Wednesday, weather permitting, SOS Events has a booth at the Plant City Flea Market in Florida.
This week eight people were saved. The SOS staff that works at this event are faithful and the Lord rewards their faithfulness with people who come to the Lord each week.
The blessings are twofold, the new converts have the burden of sin lifted, and the soul winners have the joy of seeing people saved.
SOS Event Ministry uses the opportunity to go to the marketplaces to win souls as the Bible tells us to go to the highways and compel them to come in.
Luke 14:23
And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

There are people today who are working to change or do away with The Constitution of the United States of America. We the people must fight to guard our freedoms that are slipping away.
Especially CHRISTIANS need to stand together to protect the freedom that our forefathers and brave men and women have fought for.
Our country was founded on Christian principles. Let us work to keep it that way.
Galatians 5:1
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
3 THINGS GOD CANNOT DO
January 13, 2015SOS Events attracts people to our booth at an event with displays that have the words, “3 THINGS GOD CANNOT DO”. The bible verses are covered so the answers can not be seen. The the door is lifted and the scripture is revealed.
The unsaved person is then invited to be born again and the gospel is explained to them by a soul winner.
The photo shows you what display, without the doors, SOS used at the Home, Garden and Boat Show this past weekend. Fourteen people were saved at that event.
There is always room for more workers with SOS. You can become a part of this exciting ministry. Watch the training videos on the home page and contact SOS via email or phone for more information.
Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life;
and he that winneth souls is wise.
To God Be The Glory
January 12, 2015“To God Be The Glory” is one of the hymns written by Fanny Crosby. She was blind from the age of six weeks old, when a doctor applied the wrong medication to her eyes.
She was well educated, became a teacher, married and wrote many hymns that are in our hymnals today.
She lived to be 95 years old and her love for the Lord is evident in the words of her many songs. A good example to us how a person can look at the bright side of life even through hardships and adversity.
1 To God be the glory, great things he has done;
so loved he the world that he gave us his Son,
who yielded his life an atonement for sin,
and opened the lifegate that we may go in.
Refrain:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son,
and give him the glory; great things he has done.
2 O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
to every believer the promise of God;
the vilest offender who truly believes,
that moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
3 Great things he has taught us, great things he has done,
and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
but purer and higher and greater will be
our wonder, our gladness, when Jesus we see.
John 11:4
When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
