Prayer

September 27, 2015

John R. Rice was tremendous preacher many years ago. He wrote songs, books, and tracts. One of his books is “Prayer, Asking and Receiving.” The following quote is one way to help you know how to pray and get your prayers answered.

If you surrender yourself, and do not rush, but meditate on the Word of God, you will find prayer forming in your heart. It is a prayer inspired by the Holy Spirit, a prayer that God will be pleased to hear.              John R. Rice

Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Gifts Fom Our Father

August 29, 2015

Praying is work. Have you ever been praying and your mind will wander to a different subject? Or not been able to get to sleep and decided to pray and in just a little while you have fallen asleep?

Prayer is the one weapon the that Satan does not want you to use. Prayer will give you answers to problems or decisions that you are unsure about. God delights in hearing from His children.

The most wonderful thing is that He is interested in the smallest things in our lives and He loves to have us ask for them. Need a parking place or want to have someone call you that you haven’t heard from in awhile? Then there it is.. the parking place right in front of the building. The phone rings and the person who you wanted to talk to is calling. Coincidence some people say. No, answer to prayer from a loving Father who loves His children, and likes to give good things to them.

Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

9 P.M. Pray for the USA

August 24, 2015

“I have wondered at times what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress.”~ Ronald Reagan

Join with us in prayer for our country at 9 P.M. every evening. We need to get back to honoring God.

Psalms 33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

Prayer for the Little Things

August 22, 2015

God answers prayer. He is interested in everything we do. 

A visitor to SOS Events told us of a man who believed you should not bother God on Sunday because it is His day of rest. It is true the Bible says that God rested on the seventh day when he created the earth. But God never told us not to come to him in prayer. That is one of the great privileges we have as his children. He is always ready to listen and answer our prayers if we have been born into His family.

Many people only go to God when they have trials or something big happens and they need him. However, he cares about the little things in our lives. He wants us to go to Him with all our needs. It may be a small thing like we need a parking place when we go to the grocery store.

If you are a Christian, God wants us to go to him as our Father, and He delights in giving us what we ask. If you have never been born again, go to the “home” page on this website and follow the ABC’s of salvation. The first prayer God wants to hear is when you ask Jesus for forgiveness and accept Him as our Savior.

Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

Acts 6:4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.

What a Friend We Have in Jesus

August 11, 2015

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful 

Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness;
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms He’ll take and shield you

You will find a solace there.
Blessèd Savior, Thou hast promised
Thou wilt all our burdens bear
May we ever, Lord, be bringing

All to Thee in earnest prayer.

Soon in glory bright unclouded
There will be no need for prayer
Rapture, praise and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there.
This hymn was written by Joseph M. Scriven for his mother who was far away from him in Ireland. Written in 1855 this hymn still brings comfort and peace to many.

John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Prayer Needed

“If God is just, I tremble for my country.”      Thomas Jefferson, 3rd President of the USA (1743-1846)

If Thomas Jefferson was concerned about our country during his presidency, how much more should we be concerned today. The only thing that can turn our country back to God is sincere prayer.

Have you joined with the group of Christians who are praying for America at 9 PM Eastern standard time? If you have not, set your alarm on your watch or cell phone to remind you to join in prayer for our country. One minute every evening is all that is asked. A tiny portion of your day that can help change our nation.

Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

Pray With Us

July 30, 2015

Please join us in prayer for the USA at 9:00 PM Eastern time, daily for one minute. If you are in central time zone that is 8:00 PM. Mountain is 7:00 PM, and Pacific is 6:00. Pray for safety and that our country will turn back to the principles founded on the Bible.

If every Christian would pray together for just one minute at the same time everyday our nation could turn around. Send us an email: info@sosevents.org so that we know we can count on you. We have set our watches and phones to ring at 9 PM so we will not forget.

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.

Prayer

July 25, 2015

Sometimes we don’t want to pray. That is because  we are  praying in the flesh not in the spirit.

To pray effectively we must be filled with the Holy Spirit. When we are filled with the Holy Spirit we will  want to pray.

When we pray we must first ask to be filled with the Holy Spirit, pray in Jesus name and pray expecting God  to answer.

Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 

Ephesians 6:18
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
