Who Needs GOD?

August 12, 2021

I would much rather spend time with broken people that need God than with religious people who think God needs them.

Trust in God!

August 8, 2021

Many people, even Christians, are fearful. Illness, natural disasters, family problems and finances are all things that cause us to fear.

But God is real. He tells us to fear not. It is a matter of faith and trust. Faith comes by hearing and hearing is the Word of God.

We need to read the Bible everyday and meditate on what God tells us. Pray and tell Jesus our fears and concerns. Find fellowship with other believers. Listen to Pastors and teachers who present the truth.

Fear and confusion are not from God. Confess our fear to Him and He will bring peace.

114 Salvations in New York!

SOS Events volunteers reported 114 salvations at the 2 fairs held in Western New York State. 41 salvations at the Orleans County Fair and 73 at Genesee County Fair.

A special thank you to the volunteers who helped at both these events. Because the fairs were held at the same time, SOS Events volunteers were unable to be at either event as often as needed.

Truly, the opportunity was there for more people to be saved but SOS Events needed many more workers. Praise the Lord for the souls that were saved and hopefully next year many more Christians in that area will see the opportunity and volunteer to go and present the gospel.

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest. Matthew 9:37-38

Final Day

Today is the final day of 2 fairs in New York. The Genesee Fair in Batavia and the Orleans County Fair in Albion.

Many people have made decisions to follow Jesus this week. 50 or more at each fair. Please pray that many more people will be saved today.

For some people it may be their final call. Time is short. Only God knows who will have another opportunity to hear the gospel and be saved. Have you answered God’s call? Tomorrow may be too late.

“behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” 2 Corinthians 6:2b

The Great Commission

July 24, 2021

The biggest evil in the world are Christians who refuse to witness.
Jesus came to save the lost.

Going to church on Sunday, teaching Sunday school, doing good works is not the Great Commission.

The average person has at least 40 hours a week free time. Should we not use some of that time to tell someone about Jesus?
It is so simple. Hand out a tract while standing in a checkout line. Ask a person who called with a solicitation if they are sure of Heaven.

Everyone you come in contact with is an opportunity to witness.
The world is full of people who want to hear. Christian, we must tell them before it is too late.

SOS Ministry can teach you how to be an effective witness. Join with us today by watching the training videos.

Do You Believe In GOD?

July 23, 2021

At the Flea Market, a man walked by the “3 Things GOD Can Not Do” display and he said, “I do no believe in God.”

The SOS Events volunteer replied, “Someday you will.”

Preparing For Heaven

July 22, 2021

Jesus said He is preparing a place for us.

Are you preparing to go?

When we go on a trip we prepare by checking the route, making a list so we don’t forget anything, making sure our home is secure.

We need to make preparations to go to Heaven. The only route we can take to get there is Jesus. We find the list in the Bible. It tells us what we need to do to be sure we are on the right path. Finally we make sure we are secure, by accepting Jesus as our Savior.

Are you ready for the greatest trip we can take. Are you Heaven bound?

Read Your Bible Everyday

July 20, 2021

Read your Bible.
Pray every day (repeat 3 times).
Read your Bible.
Pray every day.
And you’ll grow, grow, grow (repeat 3 times).
Read your Bible.
Pray every day.
And you’ll grow, grow, grow.

Don’t read your Bible.
Forget to pray (repeat 3 times).
Don’t read your Bible.
Forget to pray.
And you’ll shrink, shrink, shrink (repeat 3 times).
Don’t read your Bible.
Forget to pray.
And you’ll shrink, shrink, shrink.

I love this little kids song. I remember teaching it to my children and in Sunday School.

It may be a song for children, but the lesson is also great for adults. We grow in faith and our Christian walk when we read the Bible everyday. Remember, this is one of the ways GOD speaks to us. We grow closer to Him when we read and understand His Words.

All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2 Timothy 3:16
