Sometimes we feel overwhelmed with the problems. Maybe it is the illness of a loved one, trying to get everything done in a day, discontent with our job or the many other things that cause us to be upset.
God tells us in His Word, do not be upset about anything, but pray, ask Him to remedy the situation, thank Him and He will give us peace.
This is what trusting is all about. Cast all our cares on Jesus and He will help us get through any situation.
Today is Sunday and your Pastor needs prayer. The Enemy does not want him filled with the Spirit and preaching God’s Word. He will face battles today as he gets ready to feed us. The best way to honor your Pastor is to pray for him and encourage him with kind words. Pray for power in his message, for souls to be saved and backslidden Christians to get right with God.
Also, a tip from a dear Pastor’s wife, please do not catch him before church with problems, troubles or criticism. He needs to be free from conflicting thoughts so the Holy Spirit can work through him.
Jeremiah 3:15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.

On Saturday, SOS Events had 2 events in Florida. The Sugar Cane Festival in Dade City where 4 boys ask Jesus to be their Savior.
In Plant City, at a food distribution, 24 people had their lives changed when they trusted in Jesus.
Many of you prayed for these events. Thank you for your prayers. Now, please pray for these new Christians, that they will grow and become strong in the faith.
Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
The coronavirus has caused many problems for Pastors. Each Pastor has many decisions to make that involve not only his family but the people in his congregation.
As the churches begin to open again, it is the Pastors responsibility to keep people safe, give everyone encouragement and most importantly preach the gospel.
Pray for your Pastor today. Tell him or send him a note to be an encouragement to him.
1 Timothy 5:17 – Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
Romans 15:30 – Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ’s sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in [your] prayers to God for me;

Today, SOS Events has 2 places that will have teams of volunteers to witness to people in Florida.
This photo was taken last month at a food distribution at a local church in Plant City. SOS Events volunteers will be at this event again today.
At the same time more volunteers will be in Dade City at an all day event. Please pray for souls to be saved. Pray for SOS Events workers that they have wisdom and power of the Holy Spirit.
Events are few because of COVID-19 but God still gives opportunities to tell others about Jesus.
Ephesians 6:19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
Yesterday was a sad day for Americans. When the US Capital building is invaded by protesters, every citizen in our country should be sad.
There is one thing every Christian should do today. Pray and ask God for the healing of America.
Pray for President Trump and President-elect Biden. Both of these men need our prayers. They need wisdom and guidance. Pray that they seek answers from God.
Pray that there be peace in America.
“Seven days without prayer makes one weak“
A sign on a church that is so true. Start everyday with prayer and Bible reading to have a strong Christian faith.
1 Thessalonians 5:17
Pray without ceasing.
The second day of a new year. Every day is an opportunity to draw closer to Jesus.
It is a good time to start daily communication with God with Bible reading and prayer. Take time for God to speak to you as you meditate on what you have read.
The best time is when you first get up. Your day will go better if it is started with Jesus.
