Today’s Bible Verse For You!
July 23, 2024Where Are You Going Today?
July 21, 2024
Maybe you cannot go to church because of illness, your job or family responsibilities. God understands.
But, you may have stopped going during Covid and never went back. Disagreement with a church member or hurt feelings. Think about it. Are those really valid reasons for staying home?
We do have many ways to get church services on TV, radio or YouTube. But does that really satisfy?
We miss fellowship with other Christians. We miss the opportunity to see people baptized after they have been saved. Sometimes we may miss seeing the Holy Spirit working in the hearts of others. We also miss the opportunity to help someone else who may need us to be their friend.
Church is important. Let’s go!
Longing For Home
July 20, 2024
Have you ever been on a trip, in a hospital or just visiting but you are longing for home?
There is an old saying “Home is where the heart is”. How true. We can be in any place and still feel at home if we are surrounded by people we love.
As Christians we should be long for HOME. Our heavenly home where we shall see Jesus and be reunited with family and friends who have gone one before us. However, while we are still traveling this earth we do have our loved One Jesus, who is with us 24/7 no matter where we are.
So, today, wherever you are you can feel at home with your Comforter and Friend Jesus but looking forward to the day when we will reach our Heavenly home.
The Little Red Hen!
July 19, 2024
One day as the Little Red Hen was scratching in a field, she found a grain of wheat.
“This wheat should be planted,” she said. “Who will plant this grain of wheat ?”
“Not I,” said the Duck.
“Not I,” said the Cat.
“Not I,” said the Dog.
“Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did.
Soon the wheat grew to be tall and yellow.
“The wheat is ripe,” said the Little Red Hen. “Who will cut the wheat ?”
“Not I,” said the Duck.
“Not I,” said the Cat.
“Not I.” said the Dog.
“Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did.
When the wheat was cut, the Little Red Hen said, “Who will thresh this wheat ?”
“Not I,” said the Duck.
“Not I,” said the Cat.
“Not I,” said the Dog.
“Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen.’ And she did.
When the wheat was all threshed, the Little Red Hen said, “Who’ll take this wheat to the mill?”
“Not I,” said the Duck.
“Not I,” said the Cat.
“Not I,” said the Dog.
“Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did.
She took the wheat to the mill and had it ground into flour. Then she said,
“Who will make this flour into bread ?”
“Not I,” said the, Duck.
“Not I,” said the Cat.
“Not I,” said the Dog.
“Then I will,” said the Little Red Hen. And she did.
She made and baked the bread. Then she said, “Who will eat this bread ?”
“Oh! I will,” said the Duck.
“And I will,” said the Cat.
“And I will,” said the Dog.
“No, no!” said the Little Red Hen. “I will do that.” And she did.
This story was read to me as a child, to teach the value of work. Today I see it from a Christian perspective. There are people who are not saved and many Christians are not willing to go out and work in God’s fields. There are only a few “Little Red Hens” in our churches today. Be a “Little Red Hen” today and witness for The Lord.
John 4:35
Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
Yellowstone, Montana

SOS Events Team Members are resourceful. They were unable to take a display board to Montana so they made a poster board sign. Then used the little flip board to win people to the Lord.
This SOS Team is from Church on the Rock in Plant City, Florida and have reported 3 salvations so far. Praise the Lord!
Please continue to pray for SOS Teams as the ministry continues to grow.
“And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:” Ephesians 4:11-12
May God Bless You Today!

Welcome July!
July 1, 2024
July first. The month of July, especially the first week is very significant to Americans. It is the month we celebrate our independence.
True independence, however, for whatever Country a person lives in comes from God.
God blesses a nation or a person individually who puts God first.
Is Jesus your Lord?
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. Psalm 33:12
Jesus Is With Me
June 27, 2024
This beautiful old hymn reminds me that Jesus is with me always.
I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on roses
And the voice I hear falling on my ear
The son of God discloses
And he walks with me and he talks with me
And he tells me I am his own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known
He speaks and the sound of his voice
Is so sweet, the birds hush their singing
And the melody that he gave to me
Within my heart is ringing
And he walks with me and he talks with me
And he tells me I am his own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known
He does walk with me and He does talk to me in the quietness of the early morning when I read His word and communicate with Him through prayer.
Good Morning! Have A Great Day!
June 26, 2024
Most of us start our day with a cup of coffee. The most important way to start our mornings though, is to spend it with Jesus. We must not neglect to read His Word and pray. That is a perfect way to start our day along with the coffee.
Psalms 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.
God Is In Control!
June 20, 2024
We like to be in control of everything in our lives. Fear comes when we are in a situation that we can do nothing about. That is where some of us are right now.
On a prayer list from a group of Christians were many requests. Illness of a family member, unrest in our Country, loss of jobs and many other concerns.
That is where faith is important. God is in control. He knows what we are going through. Sickness, death, uncertainty. Now is the time to turn to Him for peace, comfort and most of all trust.
Proverbs 3:5&6 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;
and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him,
and he shall direct thy paths.
