God answers prayer. SOS has been praying for more full time missionaries to come with the ministry. Last night a Pastor called and said he is coming with SOS full time.
This Pastor was at the first church we went to in Florida when the ministry was in its infancy. He has seen what God has done over the years and is ready now to join with us as we attempt to reach the USA and beyond for Christ.
Jeremiah 33:3
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

Knowing how to pray is the greatest achievement on earth, it takes great discipline to receive the power God has for us.
Jesus prayed all night to the Father.
How much time do we pray everyday?
Luke 6:12
And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

Today begins 11 straight days of opportunity to win souls at the Strawberry Festival in Plant City, FL.
God has given SOS a wonderful team of people who have a desire to witness for The Lord.
Will you join with us in prayer for the lost men, women, boys and girls that will pass by the booth?
The Holy Spirit is the One who draws them to us, convicts them of sin and prepares the heart to receive the message of salvation.
It is our responsibility to give them the gospel and trust God for the increase.
1 Corinthians 3:7
So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

“Prayer is asking; the answer to prayer is receiving.”
John R. Rice
Thank everyone who prayed for SOS training yesterday. There were 24 people who took the training and most signed up to witness in the booth at Strawberry Festival.
Keep praying with us for a few more workers and souls to be saved.
We are expecting God to answer in great measure.
Matthew 21:22
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

Pray with us that laborers will come to help us and then pray for SOULS to be saved.
This is a great opportunity as people from many states and even several countries come to the Strawberry Festival every year.

The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

John Newton wrote “Amazing Grace” in 1779.
His Godly mother died when he was 7 years old, but not before she taught him Bible verses and hymns, and prayed fervently for him.
He was saved after much sin and many years of service in the British Navy. After a terrific storm at sea, when the sailor thought that all was lost and he was going to die, on March 10, 1748, he gave his life to Christ.
He wrote, “The Lord came to me from on high and delivered me from deep waters.”
He became a powerful preacher, a foe of slavery and wrote hundreds of hymns.
He never forgot his Mother’s influence. We can learn from his experience.
Start teaching our children and grandchildren about The Lord when they are young and even though they may stray, our prayers and training will not be fruitless.
Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go:
and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Today, if you have a need; believe and have faith in GOD who created the world, who saved your soul and who loves you and wants to give his child good things. Meditate on Him and thank Him for the answer.
Hebrews 11:6
But without faith it is impossible to please him:for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

God answers prayer. One of the great things about God is that He cares about the little things in our lives.
Sometimes we think He only answers in a crisis or a big problem but if we are truly following His leading He loves to give us what we ask.
SOS participates in a big event every year, the Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Fl. It takes many people to witness in the booth over a 11day period. Many churches are invited to send a team to help.
Tom and I were delivering DVDs about the festival to the area churches for the congregation to watch and it was important that each DVD was given to a responsible person at every church.
The first church we went to, no one was there, so we continued on to other places.
About 2 hours later, I prayed and ask The Lord to have someone at that first church so we could finish our deliveries.
We arrived at the church and there was a car there. It was the pastor’s wife.
She said, “I am never here this time of day, but my husband ask me to meet him here today and I have no idea why.”
I told her about the prayer and we rejoiced together, knowing that God answered a specific prayer.
Matthew 21:22
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
