We are like sheep. Prone to wander. Defenseless against our enemy. Need a protector.
Jesus is that shepherd. He will not only protect us and give us what we need but He took away our sin when He died on the cross and rose again the third day.
The difference in a sheep and us is that we need to choose to follow Him. Sheep have no choice in who they will follow.
If you have not chosen Jesus yet, do it now!
Tracts are a wonderful way to witness as you go through your daily life.
Leave one with a tip at a restaurant. Give one to a cashier at a grocery store. When in conversation with a stranger.
Get creative. Find ways you can witness using a gospel tract.
SOS Events can supply you with the “3 Things God Can Not Do” tract. The cost is $2.50 for 25, plus postage.
Email info@sosevents.org, or call 813-494-7512 to order.
so shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Isaiah 55:11 KJV
Many churches have put away the old hymns. How sad!
Bring in some of the more modern music (as long as they line up with scripture) but don’t throw away the great hymns of the past.
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not;
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
Refrain:
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
Refrain
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
“Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.”
Corrie was a woman who suffered terribly in a concentration camp in World War II. Her father and sister died from cruelty of prison guards.
She became well known after the war by writing and speaking of her experiences. Her faith in the Lord Jesus was what got her through those terrible times.
She realized that she must forgive the person who caused her so much pain and grief when she came face to face with him after one of her speeches.
This former prison guard stretched out his hand and asked her forgiveness. After several seconds she realized that she must with God’s help forgive him. She took his hand and felt God’s amazing love flow through her.
And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. Mark 11:25&26
One of my favorite things is a little figurine. 3 monkeys, the first has his hands over his eats, the second, hands over his eyes, and the third, his hands over his mouth.
Hear no evil, see no evil and speak no evil. Good advice for us. If we are careful what we watch and hear we will think before we speak.
Matthew 15:17 those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
Are you willing to ask God to search your heart and your thoughts?
Sin starts in the mind. If we truly want to have a pure heart, then we need to ask God to reveal to us any thoughts that may not be pleasing to Him.
Wow! That can be a risky prayer. We may have to give up that secret sin.
But, the reward of knowing that we have pleased the Lord will far outweigh anything we want to hold on to.
If you are a trained volunteer with the Florida SOS Events Team, we need you!!
Strawberry Festival in Plant City starts tomorrow. There is still several 3 hour slots that need volunteers.
Hundreds of people pass by the SOS Events booth. Most of them are lost and do not know that Jesus is the only way that they can have eternal life.
You have the answer. Are you going to let these men, women, boys and girls go by without an opportunity to be saved?
Go to the website signupgenius, scroll down to find a sign up, type in info@sosevents.org. An icon will pop up about Strawberry Festival and sign up in an empty slot.
If that is to difficult for you call the office at 813-494-7512. We will sign up for you.
God commands us to be witnesses. This is your golden opportunity.
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? Romans 10:13
Are you willing to get out of your comfort zone to please God?
Sacrifice. That’s what it takes. Giving your time, talent and resources to communicate the Word of God to others.
Praise is the first step. Only through praise and prayer can we accomplish God’s will for our lives.
Today, ask God what He wants you to do. Be ready for Him to show you. It will take some sacrifice, but the reward of pleasing Him will far outweigh any sacrifice you can give.
25 days until Christmas. To some that is exciting. Children waiting, anxiously waiting. Will it ever come.
Moms and Dads are thinking, so soon and so much to do.
Older folks may not welcome the day so much. Maybe they are alone or away from loved ones.
Whatever your expectations about Christmas, it will come.
Looking back to the birth of. Jesus. He was expected for years. People looked forward to His coming. When He did enter the world it was not as a king as they expected, but as a little baby in a lowly manger.
He was born to die. He grew up, died on a cross and rose again. Then after appearing to many He ascended into Heaven.
He will return. This time as King. Are you looking and waiting? Just like Christmas past, Jesus is coming again!
This is a page from a church hymnal. Many churches today do not use hymnals anymore, they project the words on a screen. New technology is good as long as we don’t forget that music is to worship the King of kings and Lord of lords, Jesus.
Today when you go to church worship the Lord by singing from your heart.
Are the words you sing truly honoring Him or do they just make you feel good?
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16
