You Can Do It!

June 6, 2024

“Never let your yesterday keep you from your tomorrow.”

Sometimes we let our past keep us from doing what God wants us to do today or tomorrow.

We don’t think we can teach others because we know others who know the Bible better than we do.

We don’t think we can tell others about Jesus because we tried and the person rejected what we had to say.

We don’t think we can go to church because we may get sick.

Excuses we have for not doing what God calls us to do. We are allowing our past sin or failure to keep us from doing what God wants us to do. We are robbing ourselves of a blessing.

Whatever God wants us to do, He will give us the strength, wisdom, finances or whatever we need to complete the task.

Satan will try to keep you where you are. Do not let him have control. You can do it!

Need To Have GOD Close In Your Life?

May 13, 2024

The way to have God come close to you is to first get rid of any known sin in your life.

You can’t have it 2 ways. Put away worldly things and focus on Jesus. He is the way to eternal life and the way to grow close to God.

God will honor His Word and come close to you.

What Do You Think About?

May 4, 2024

Do you feel discouraged? Depressed? Nobody cares? I’m ugly! Something terrible will happen today. Negative thoughts.

What a beautiful day. God loves me. I am blessed. I see so much beauty in what God has created. I am thankful. Positive thoughts.

Proverbs 23:7a For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:

God’s Word has much to say about how we think. What are you thinking about?

Get Out Of Your Comfort Zone

April 30, 2024

***And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15***

Are you content to go to church once or twice a week? Maybe you think telling others about Jesus is the Pastor’s job.

You have an excuse, I’m too old, I’m too young, I’m too busy, I have too many responsibilities.

God tells us in His Word that we are to GO and TELL. It is not a suggestion, it is a command.

Maybe you have fear of rejection or you do not know how to witness.

SOS Events has an effective way of witnessing that is simple, not hard to learn and is effective and we can help you.

SOS Events will supple you with the knowledge and venue to become a soul winner.

Jesus Is The Good Shepherd!

April 25, 2024

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!

Do You Witness Through Tracts?

Great Is Thy Faithfulness!

April 16, 2024

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!

Quote From Corrie ten Boom

April 5, 2024

“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
