Romans 13:7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
Citizenship
November 5, 2016The forefathers of the USA gave us many freedoms when they wrote and approved the Constitution, but the greatest freedom of all is freedom from sin provided by Jesus when he shed His blood to pay for our sins. It is a great blessing to be a citizen the USA by being born in the Country or to apply for citizenship. To become a citizen of Heaven we must be born again.
John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Our Freedom
September 6, 2016Federal court judge Carlton Reeves, appointed by Obama, has ordered the marching band of Brandon High School (Mississippi) to remove the hymn, “How Great Thou Art”, from its half-time show. Everyday our Christian freedoms are being taken away in America.
This coming election is so important because the judges make decisions that effect our lives. The new president will appoint one to four new Suoreme Court Justices in the next few years. Study the issues and realize it is not just the president you are voting for but even more important who is elected will appoint these Judges. We must not allow any more of our freedoms to be taken away.
Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Happy 4th of July!

Memorial Day

Freedom
May 28, 2016Memorial Day weekend should be a time when we remember the men and women who fought and died to give us the freedom we enjoy in the USA. There are many who read this who do not have the freedom of religion, speech, the press, peaceful assembly and the right to address grievances to the government.
The United States of America is a wonderful place to live but it does not come without the sacrifices of our military men and women, both past and present, who give their lives to give us our freedom. Most of all remember that in Christ all are free through His great sacrifice on the cross.
Many will spend this weekend out at the beach, picnics, amusement parks and various other activities without a thought for why they have this long weekend to enjoy whatever they choose to do.
So stop! For just a few minutes to pray and thank the Lord for freedom and the fallen heroes, and pray for those who are still serving in the military today. Then enjoy the rest of this weekend with thankful hearts.
John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
Tool or Toy
July 6, 2015“Are you a tool for God or a toy for Satan?”
This a quote from one of the Benham brothers on Dr. Charles Stanley’s TV program IN TOUCH. The Benham brothers have a powerful Christhian testimony. They stand against abortion and gay marriage and it cost them a great contract with HGTV. Their program was about flipping houses and helping families that could not afford to own a house have the ability to purchase a home.
HGTV cancelled the contract after pressure from the liberals. The brothers acted with a CHRISTIAN attitude and thanked HGTV for the opportunity and did not get angry or retaliate in any way.
Then they learned that the financial institution which finances all their real estate business was going to pull all the loans and contracts ruining their successful real estate business. Once again the brothers reacted in a Godly way. They would not change their CHRISTIAN beliefs for fame or money. “It’s in God’s hands” was their remarks.
After much pressure from the conservative Christians who do business with the bank that handles all the real estate deals, the bank changed and decided to continue financing the Benham brothers business.
Thank the Lord for young men who will stand up for what they believe.
This story shows how far our country has come in taking away our rights as CHRISTIANS. If we value our freedom given to American citizens by the Constitution we must stand up for our rights.
Enough people contacted that bank and the decision was reversed. We must stand and do what needs to be done in a Christlike manner and then allow God to bring the Victory.
Ephesians 6:7 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Success
July 3, 2015Many activities take place over the 4th of July Celebrations in the USA. Freedom from oppression is what our forefathers fought and died for.
Pray for America. Those same freedoms are being taken away little by little from the citizens. However we still have the right to witness at events and are Praising the Lord for 10 decisions to follow Christ at “Country, Country” Event in Alabama. Thank you all the volunteers who made this event successful in reaching souls for Christ.
Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
God Bless America
May 24, 2015God bless America, Land that I love,
Stand beside her and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above;
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans white with foam,
God bless America,
My home, sweet home.
God bless America,
My home, sweet home.
“God Bless America” was written by Irving Berlin as a prayer in 1918 but was not published until 1938 when he revised the words and music. He wanted the song to be sung to promote victory over the treatment of the Jewish people by Hitler in World War II. Berlin wrote many Patriotic songs to encourage the troops as they fough that war.
“God Bless America” has become the unofficial American anthem and is known and sung by many. After September 11, 2001 both Democrats and Republicans joined together to sing it as a prayer.
On this Memorial Day weekend as we reflect on the victories and defeats we at SOS Events ministry would encourage you to pray for our nation today. We live in the greatest nation of the world but we are loosing our freedoms as evil is on every side, from without and from within.
The Bible gives the answer if we would just listen.
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
