Answered Prayer

October 6, 2016

God answers prayer. Yesterday at the Plant City Flea Market things were slow. By 10:00 o’clock not one person had been saved and the crowd was sparse. In the morning we had asked for prayer from you who read the blog and I prayed specifically that God would bless us with 3 or more souls.

God is faithful and when Alice got back to the office she reported that 4 people were saved. Praise the Lord for answered prayer and for the people who were saved. Alice is in the center with 2 of the girls who made decisions.

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Blessing for a New Christian 

September 27, 2016

It is so great to hear what the Lord does for a new Christian. At The SOS Events booth in Pennsylvania, recently, a mother and a boy about 12 years old were saved. The next day they were both in church. This is the mother’s testimony;

At the auction on Saturday there was a drum set that my son really wanted. He had saved $15 to buy this drum set. The bidding started, he proudly bid up to his $15 and a lady in the crowd quickly overbid him. His disappointment was evident on his face, he did not cry but everyone could tell how disappointed he was.

There was a man in the crowd that started bidding against the lady, and soon the price had risen to $100. The lady stopped bidding and the drum set was given to the man. He turned to the young boy and gave him the drum set.

The mother’s comment was that nothing like that has ever happened to her family. She was so excited that she and her son have been saved and immediately the Lord brought blessings into their lives. She told many people at church that Sunday about the blessings that came from the Lord.

John 20:29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

Desires

September 23, 2016

God’s promises are true and this verse is one that is a favorite. SOS Events goal and purpose is to get the gospel to as many people as possible and God is answering with new people in new areas every week. Desires being fulfilled. Praise the Lord!

Good Morning!

Praise and Prayer

September 8, 2016

Praise God for the 16 decisions for Christ during the month of September, for the over 40 newly locally trained SOS volunteers in Alabama. SOS Events Alabama team led by Dale and Dorothy Brown and Patty Mills do a wonderful job all year to bring souls to Christ and train new soul winners. 

  Your prayers are vital in helping us fight the attacks of the evil one as he seeks to do what he does best: “steal, kill and destroy.” As the ministry rolls into what promises to be the busiest season of the year, will you please commit to join with SOS Events Ministry in prayer, specifically for complete and total surrender to God’s will and for His protection? There is a spiritual battle being waged but make no mistake – we know Christ is the victor!    

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

One Sinner

September 4, 2016

Sometimes we are disappointed when only one person repents and gets saved at an event that SOS Events participates in. The effort to go, set up a canopy, get workers, pray, prepare, pay for and all the things that must be accomplished before the event even starts, then after that only one soul.

This is what happened on Friday night this week in Pennsylvania at an event. Then we remember that God is in control and the joy in Heaven over this one person is taking place. We do not know how God will use this person in the future. So today we also rejoice in this one soul that made a decision to follow Christ. All the work and effort put in by  SOS Events volunteers is worth that one person and they will be rewarded for faithfulness because God looks at our heart.

Joy in the Morning

September 3, 2016

The storm has passed our area. The electric companies worked tirelessly to restore power to the thousands of Floridians who lost electricity, cleanup of downed trees and flooded homes are now in progress. Waking this morning to sunshine and a new day there is praise in my heart to the Lord for safety and His wonderful mercy and care. The quote by Govenor Rick Scott is so true, “You can rebuild a home. You can rebuild property,” Scott said. “You cannot rebuild a life.”

One man did loose his life in the storm, and we sorrow for the loss of life, but it could have been so much worse. So if you are working to clean the debris and mess left behind, take a moment to thank the Lord for His mercy and look at the sunshine after the storm. Joy comes in the morning.

Psalms 30:5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

God’s Plan

September 1, 2016

Sometimes events cannot be held because of stormy weather and yesterday was one of those days in Florida. A tropical storm shut the Wednesday, Flea Market down so no decisions for Christ. We get disappointed when our plans get changed and things don’t go the way we plan, but that is the time to remember that God is in control and He knows our heart.

So our team didn’t get to witness but, a lot of office work got done. So we are Praising the Lord for His goodness.

2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

God’s Way

August 22, 2016

Bill and Pat now live in Tennesee but a friend in Florida heard they were trained, working with SOS Events and that 24 people came to know the Lord at the event in TN. Sally was so excited that she called and ask if SOS Events would train some people from her church. A meeting for their fall Trunk or Treat event took place yesterday and not one but 3 churches now want to be trained and win souls at their event. One of the great blessings is that a Spanish church with bilingual people will also be trained. SOS Events needs Spanish speaking folks as in Florida there are many adults who speak no English.

God is blessing SOS Events with new areas to win souls and train people and we are amazed at the way He works.

Psalms 18:30a As for God, his way is perfect:

Children Came

August 15, 2016

Another picture of the Family Fun Day in Tennesee. What a blessing to see children come to the Lord at an early age.


Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
