What we think about can make our day wonderful or terrible. Sometimes it is hard to control our thoughts.
That is when we need to seek God’s face and ask Him for His help and direction.
It is hard to be negative when we are concentrating on positive things. Fear and worry are not from God. How many times have you worried about something that never happened?
Think about the good things GOD has done for you and be thankful. Everyday this month write down something you are thankful for. No repeats. You will see that good thoughts make a good day.
Most of us start our day with a cup of coffee. The most important way to start our mornings though, is to spend it with Jesus. We must not neglect to read His Word and pray. That is a perfect way to start our day along with the coffee.
Psalms 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
Halloween is a day that originated to ward off evil spirits with bonfires and sacrifices. This weekend is a time when children trick or treat and adults party. Some people love Halloween and others hate it, but however you feel about Halloween, as Christian we can use it to witness for the Lord.
If children come to your house for trick or treat be sure to give them a tract along with the candy.
SOS Events participates in many Halloween alternatives at churches and community events. Diana (our office manager) sets up a “3 Things God Can Not Do” display in her yard every Halloween and has seen many children, teens and adults come to know the Lord in the last several years. Be a witness and use this opportunity for God’s glory. Also please pray for many souls to be saved on this weekend, the busiest in the year for SOS Events all around the USA.
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.
God gave us a precious gift. The gift of eternal life. We cannot work for it. We do not deserve it, but God sent Jesus to die on a cruel cross, was buried and on the third day rose again.
All we have to do is have faith and believe in Jesus. Have you received God’s gift?
When SOS Events Ministry goes to an event, some people receive the Lord Jesus as their Savior and others walk away.
In the first photo there is a woman who has received the message and was justified because she invited Jesus to be her Savior.
In the second photo is a man who deliberately walked as far as possible from the booth so he would not hear about Jesus. Condemned? We don’t know if he will ever find the truth but please pray for him.
“He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” John 3:18 KJV
Six people were saved at this event in Zephyrhills, Florida last weekend. Praise the Lord!!
Sometimes we cannot see good in the situation we are in. Maybe it’s illness, accident, loss of a loved one. In our finite minds we can not understand why things are happening to us..
But, GOD will turn even the worst tragedies in our lives into something good if we will trust Him to bring it to pass. It may take time. Even months or years. Then we look back and we can see how He uses these tests in our lives and turns them into testimonies.
This time of year people think about ghosts, goblins and witches. Halloween is just 10 days away.
The real enemy is the devil, who tries to keep you from trusting Jesus as your Savior. The enemy is after your soul.
If he has not succeeded in his plan to keep you away from Jesus, then Christian beware, he will use doubt and discouragement to keep you from serving Jesus and you will become ineffective in your Christian life.
We need to put on the whole armor of God Ephesians 6:11-17.
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
God’s Word gives us the answer to what we should think about. If we think positive thoughts we will be happy and contented no matter what our circumstances.
Thinking negatively will only cause us to be anxious and worry. Negative thinking is not trusting in God.
