From the International Baptist Church Bremen, Pastor Albert and Marge…with Heath and Melody from Plant City.
Thank you for your prayers. Pastor Albert had a church in Ukraine before the war broke out. He came here to Bremen, Germany and is now Pastor here. He has a very strong evangelical outreach program and is very excited to have these SOS Events display boards.
Please continue to pray that many people will be saved in Germany through this church. Only about 4% of the people in Germany even go to church. That includes all denominations.
Ephesians 3:20-21 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
Matthew 5 is about being distinct in character. How a Christian is to be clearly different from this world, noticeably different in a good way. This particular teaching was coming from the mouth of Jesus Himself.
He not only said how we are to be distinct, but when we are, we are blessed with a true happiness & peace that only God gives.
Plus He tells what we would obtain for being distinct. We are called to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Christ urges us to be a good example.
I challenge you to read Matthew chapter 5 and be determined to be distinct in this world and watch for your blessings.
Matthew 5:13-16 (KJV) Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
I saw this list at church. We are all these things and more when we receive Jesus as our Savior. You are challenged to look up a verse for each of these things God says we are in Him. Here is the first one: Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. 2 Corinthians 5:20
But you know what, most of the time people don’t sing the songs purely and simply because they don’t know them.
Churches today try to bring in music to attract a younger generation. They bring in the new popular songs that the young people listen to on the radio or other media.
What about the old hymns? Amazing Grace, In The Garden and hundreds of “old” Spirit filled music that even a small child can learn.
If the new music is what is being sung then teach the congregation the words and melody if you want them to sing. And be sure there is a message in the songs being taught.
What a statement. We go to God with the big things in our lives. Illness, family disagreements, loss of job or worse. Death of a loved one. Any huge problem we run to Him.
What about the small things? A parking place, lost keys, color of an item we want to buy, anything that happens in our daily routine. Does God care about that? YES.
If God knows us so well that even the hair on our head is numbered, don’t you think he cares about all the little things? God loves us so much that he cares and listens to the smallest things in our life.
Like a small child trusts Mom or Dad to fix anything. A broken toy, an injured finger, hurt feelings. We listen and do everything to help our child because we care.
We are God’s children and He cares for every area of our life. Even the small things.
The classic car was transported from Ohio to the SOS Events property this week.
We are so grateful for a new opportunity to use it to bring people to the Lord.
Now to get a permanent building to house this vehicle. Right now it is being stored in a tent garage. OK but not the best solution. pray for additional donations to get a permanent building. It will cost about $5000.
The first Car Show is in August at Plant City, Florida. Then another in September in Dover, Florida. Pray for more car Shows to use this car to win souls.
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. I Timothy 2:4
3. GOD CAN NOT LET ANYONE INTO HEAVEN UNLESS THEY ARE BORN AGAIN John 3:3
The German display board is finished and on the way to Germany. Please pray with us that this board will be used by many SOS Events volunteers to have multiple people accept Jesus as their Savior in Germany.
SOS Events is truly expanding into the world.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15
Put God first in everything you do. Jesus should be the love of your life.
Love Him with your heart. He should be the One you are longing to see. Spending time each day with Him. Reading His Word. Communicating with Him in prayer.
Jesus should be the One you think about. Sometimes we only think about Him when we have a need. We need to be thinking about Him and talking with Him in the glad times too.
Our soul is our inner self. The spiritual part that is separate from our physical body. Jesus is the only One that can fill that empty void that we have before we know Him as our Savior.
15 salvations Friday night at the Perrysburg Car Show!!! The SOS Events Ministry is an amazing ministry to be a part of and witnessing the greatest miracle of salvation is always so exciting!!! Praise God!!!
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.Acts 4:12Jesus
