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.

“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.

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.

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;

God is Faithful

June 9, 2015

As the ministry of SOS Events grows the blessings overflow and at the same time the burdens of the staff, volunteers, trainers and event workers seem to be increased also.

Many of our workers and volunteers are over retirement age and along with that comes the problems that is part of the aging process. Some have physical problems, illness and a few have financial concerns.

The younger generation has the challenge of trying to coordinate family, job, church and  working events for SOS Events.

The blessing to all is the faithfulness of our Savior the Lord Jesus, who never leaves or forsakes us and walks with us through trials. He also promised us wisdom and guidance when we follow Him. The blessings to all who are with SOS Events far outweigh all of our burdens. When we witness and see a lost soul come to trust Christ as Savior, see lives changed it is worth every hardship that comes our way.

So today when you pray please add the workers of SOS Events to your list. God knows each of us who has needs  and you will be blessed when you see the results published to answered prayers.

1 Corinthians 1:9 “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.”

God Bless America

May 24, 2015

God 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.
