Those in Authority

November 14, 2017

Praise the Lord for the freedom of speech that we have in the United States of America. However, the mainstream media have taken politician bashing beyond a level that is good for our country. That includes local, state and national politicians no matter what party they belong too. As Christians, we should be praying for our political leaders rather than complaining and repeating rhetoric that may or may not be true. Today, join with us to pray for your local leaders, Governor, President and Vice President that they may have wisdom to govern with biblical principles and more importantly that they may be saved if they are not.

I Timothy 2:1-2 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?

November 13, 2017

This is a question that many people ask when tragedy comes, either personal or public. God is a loving God. For the Christian, God allows sorry and heartbreak into our lives to draw us closer to Him. For the unsaved., He is giving them an opportunity to seek Him for salvation and comfort. Do we understand? No! However, with the passage of time we see blessing. Hearing the testimonies of people who have overcome great tragedies in their lives helps us to get through the hard times. If you are facing trials it is the time to draw close to God. He will be with you in every circumstance.

1 Peter 5:7

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Humble and Committed 

November 12, 2017


Tom Curtis, founder of SOS Events Ministry, kept a daily journal with prayer requests and his thoughts about family, friends and Christian living. These journals are a blessing as we now have in his own handwriting his prayers and goals for the ministry.                                                  In a journal from the year 2000, before SOS Events was founded, there were two words he used to describe a successful Christian, especially a soul winner. They must be humble and committed. Traits that he displayed in his own life.                                                                             Let us take a lesson from a man who loved the Lord with all his heart and not only wrote encouraging words but lived them daily.

James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

Teenagers

November 4, 2017

Teenagers and young adults get blamed for much of the problems in this world, crime, drugs, theft, and worse. SOS Events Ministry has some wonderful teens that are not in trouble but working to win souls to the Lord. In this picture you see 3 young people witnessing to other teens at the Alabama National Fair. Praise the Lord for the opportunity to train young people to Serve Our Savior.

1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

Faithful Servants

November 2, 2017

SOS Events is so blessed to have wonderful volunteers who work tirelessly to help the ministry grow. Growth means more people are born again and Christians are learning how to witness. Today a special group of volunteers come to get out the monthly newsletter. They are our Senior Servants. Many of the have health problems, financial worries and other things that come as we get older, but they are faithful in spite of their obstacles. Thank you ladies. We are praying that God blesses you abundantly for the work you do.

Matthew 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Fear

Christian Life

October 11, 2017

How do you keep going for the Lord after many years? This question was asked Carolyn Curtis (co-founder of SOS Events Ministry) at a Missions Conference recently. Her answer, “Guidance of the Holy Spirit, daily Bible reading and prayer and Godly habits,” we cannot be consistent in the Christian life without all three. 

Romans 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

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

Titus 2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

Heaven, Our Permanent Home

October 10, 2017

Walking into my home after a week away was so wonderful. “Home is were the heart is” is an old saying but true. However, as a Christian we should be looking for our permanent home, Heaven. There we will see our wonderful Savior, Jesus. We will be with our loved ones who have gone on before. Also, we will meet the people that we have had the privilege of leading to the Lord. Or will we go in empty handed with no one because we failed to witness to our family, friends or neighbors? Will the Lord say to us, “Well done thou good and faithful servant”? Let us get busy and tell as many people as possible about this beautiful place that we will be going to when the Lord calls us home.

Matthew 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
