Work vs. Handouts

January 23, 2018

The Bible has a lot to say about working and providing for yourself and your family. Unless we are too old, too sick, or a caregiver for children or someone in our family we should work. If you cannot find the job you are qualified for take anything until something better comes along. A young man could not find a job and came to do hard outside work for SOS Events. He was not only on time but would come at least 15 minutes early. He worked diligently for small pay. We prayed and within a month he had a great paying job where he made an excellent wage plus benefits. We sure miss this hard worker. Christians, GOD will supply.

2 Thessalonians 3:10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

Meeting Day

January 20, 2018

Today, Board Members, Staff, and Volunteers of SOS Events Florida Team will meet for our first annual Florida meeting. It will be a time of instruction, encouragement,food and fellowship. A great day is planned and hopefully those who come will get a greater vision for winning souls, encouraging other Christians to get out and be witnesses for the Lord. Everyone who is a soul winner is on the “front line” Serving Our Savior. We all need encouragement to keep up the good fight until the Lord comes and the battle will be won.

1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Children Your Heritage

January 19, 2018

If we have children and grandchildren we are abundantly blessed. God tells us that they are our heritage. Sometimes they make us so happy and other times they hurt and disappoint, but God has given us the most wonderful gift and also with that responsibility. If you have children in your life the first thing you need to do is be a Christlike example. Love them unconditionally. Then pray for them and pray for them (duplicate on purpose). The devil is a roaring lion waiting to devour them.

Psalms 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

Be Glad

January 18, 2018

No matter what the circumstance, weather or trial in your life, God tells us to rejoice and be glad. Not always easy to do but God will bless if we rejoice out of obedience even if we don’t feel it at the moment. The key is “we will”.

We Have A Big God

1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Pray For Your Pastor, Today

January 14, 2018

Today is Sunday and your Pastor needs prayer. Please do not bother him before service with problems or things he needs to deal with. If you speak with him encourage him. Be faithful to church and give of your time and finances. Write him a note of appreciation. Tell him about the good things his children are doing, but if they need discipline tell him after the Sunday service or better yet wait until tomorrow. Do not go to his wife and complain to her about her husband and expect her to fix him. You want your pastor to be used of God to speak to your heart. Do not get upset if he steps on your toes during a sermon, it is the Holy Spirit convicting you. Remember, the visitor in your church may need to be saved and we show God’s love by our love one for another.

Philippians 2:2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Love

January 10, 2018

“Christianity is a love relationship between a child of God and his Maker through the Son Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.” Adrian Rogers

Do you have a love relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ?

Matthew 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

Illness

January 9, 2018

Many people are having problems with being sick this time of the year, especially in the southern USA. The drastic change in weather is probably a factor. The best thing to do if you or your family or friends are ill is to pray. Moms have an especially hard job to care for sick children and they need prayer and a helping hand would be a blessing. Adults who are ill please take care of yourself, rest and pray. The old remedy is chicken soup. Maybe not scientific but it sure makes one feel better. Our prayer for you is to get well soon and trust in the Lord for a quick recovery.

James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Monday Morning

January 8, 2018

Monday morning starts the new work week for most of us. If you love Mondays, congratulations, if you dread the start of a new week, remember your attitude has a lot to do with how your day and the rest of the week will be. Christian, today is the day the Lord has made, He says to rejoice and be glad in it. Look for something positive and you will find it. Happy Monday!

Psalms 118:24 This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Joy in Jesus

January 2, 2018

The Christmas decorations are put away, the holiday season is over. Let us not pack away the joy we have in Jesus, but keep Him the center of our lives all year long.

Romans 5:11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
