Halloween, A Time To Witness

October 29, 2021

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.

Beware!

October 21, 2021

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:

Sunday Worship

October 10, 2021

Sunday has turned into a day when most people do everything but worship God.

Shopping, sports, amusement parks, work and every other thing that takes place instead of going to church and worshiping the Lord!

Worshipping God should be our first priority, not only on Sunday but every day of the week. Put GOD first.

Fear Not!

October 6, 2021

In this troubled world, there is much fear. Fear of all kinds. Sickness, financial, relationships and a whole lot more.

As Christians the Bible tells us many times to fear not. God has everything under His control.

A very spiritual man told me “Worry is a sin.” How true. When we worry about our situation it is a total lack of trust in God and His promises to us.

Do the circumstances change? NO! But God promises that He is with us and that all things work together for our good.

Right now make a decision to put your trust in God. Confess your sin and ask forgiveness for your lack of faith and give all your worries to Him.

It’s Time To Put On The Armor

September 17, 2021

We live in troubled times. Christian, it is time we stand up and be ready to fight against the evil that is over taking not only America but the world.

Our enemy, the devil is working to cause division in our families, our churches and in the workplace.

Jesus wants us to be strong and at the same time love one another. It almost seems like a contradiction, but it isn’t.

Jesus Himself was strong, yet, He always had love and compassion. His last words were, “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.”

Is Jesus Lord Of Your Life?

August 28, 2021

You have Jesus as your Savior, but is He Lord of your life? Do you allow Him in all the areas in your life?

Seeking wisdom and knowledge of Jesus as Lord is very important if you are expecting to grow and be a successful Christian. Jesus wants to help you, direct you and be your Savior and Lord.

Trusting Jesus gives us entrance into the very presence of God. Jesus is KING of kings and LORD of lords.

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!

August 2, 2021

Orleans County Fair, Albion, NY (top) Genesee County Fair, Batavia, Ny (bottom)

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

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.

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
