Giants in Your Life

January 11, 2018

Sometimes we have things in our lives that are overwhelming. Problems, illness, relationships, sin and other things that seem impossible to overcome. Can the giant in your life be defeated? Absolutely! Remember David and Goliath. David was young and only a Shepard but he had faith that God would defeat Goliath, this 9 foot tall giant. Armed with a slingshot and five stones and faith he killed the giant that plagued Israel. God brought the victory. You can have victory in your life over and “giant” you are facing. Give it to the Lord, have faith and victory can be yours.

1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Love

January 10, 2018

“Christianity is a love relationship between a child of God and his Maker through the Son Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.” Adrian Rogers

Do you have a love relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ?

Matthew 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

Illness

January 9, 2018

Many people are having problems with being sick this time of the year, especially in the southern USA. The drastic change in weather is probably a factor. The best thing to do if you or your family or friends are ill is to pray. Moms have an especially hard job to care for sick children and they need prayer and a helping hand would be a blessing. Adults who are ill please take care of yourself, rest and pray. The old remedy is chicken soup. Maybe not scientific but it sure makes one feel better. Our prayer for you is to get well soon and trust in the Lord for a quick recovery.

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.

Monday Morning

January 8, 2018

Monday morning starts the new work week for most of us. If you love Mondays, congratulations, if you dread the start of a new week, remember your attitude has a lot to do with how your day and the rest of the week will be. Christian, today is the day the Lord has made, He says to rejoice and be glad in it. Look for something positive and you will find it. Happy Monday!

Psalms 118:24 This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

An Event

January 7, 2018

Friday and Saturday there was a most unusual event that SOS Events has ever participated in. Monterey Baptist Church in Orlando invited us to come and share in their soul winning event. While several vans and cars full of soul winners went out to witness at apartment complexes, we set up our displays in the front yard of the church waiting for people to pass by. This is not our usual venue, however, a few people did walk past. At the end of the 2 days there were eight Salvations. These people are within walking distance of the church. Praying that today they will attend the Sunday services of this growing church.

Psalms 122:1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.

3 New Christians

January 6, 2018

The first three souls have been won in Florida, yesterday. Praise the Lord. Unseasonably cold weather and our Florida team is still out there winning souls. Thank you and praise the Lord for the three new Christians.

Reposted Blessing from 2016

January 5, 2018

Today is a special day for Tom and Carolyn Curtis. It is our 15th Wedding Anniversary. You may not think that is so great but it is really a miracle. Both of us were traveling alone after the loss of our spouses, working for the Lord in different ministries when we met. Tom went to Iowa and I traveled the East coast for a year after we met. Then we worked in a ministry together in Florida for a short time. I had been praying for Tom and about the relationship for the whole year. (Tom had no clue.)

When we married Tom had many health problems and had been told by doctors that he had only 3 years to live. That was back in 1995. He was reluctant to marry in 2001 but God directed him and we have been blessed with a wonderful marriage.

God then led us to begin SOS Events Ministry and in 15 years hundreds of Christians have been trained to serve the Lord, over 60,000 souls have made decisions for Christ and at least 2 other ministries have been started with the training of SOS.

God took two ordinary people and for 15 years has blessed us with a good marriage and a great ministry. So today we Praise the Lord for the blessings He has given and I still believe in miracles.

(Tom went home to be with the Lord 4 months after this was posted 2 years ago, but the blessings continue on.)

Psalms 9:1 I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

Winter is Here

January 3, 2018

Winter came in with extremely cold weather all over the USA. Some of us love the cold and others hate it, but the Bible says give thanks in all things. If you love the cold go out and enjoy it. For those who think they will freeze to death, curl up with a blanket and a good book. Be thankful for the change in seasons, it gives us verity in our lives. Weather changes but Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Ephesians 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Joy in Jesus

January 2, 2018

The Christmas decorations are put away, the holiday season is over. Let us not pack away the joy we have in Jesus, but keep Him the center of our lives all year long.

Romans 5:11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
