Sometimes we are disappointed when only one or two people get saved at an event. Wednesday at the flea market in Plant City, FL there were two decisions. The weather was beautiful and we were praying for that event. Then we remember this wonderful Bible verse:
Today is one of my son’s birthday. It is wonderful to celebrate the day he was born, but there is a more important day that is celebrated in our family. That is the day that he was born again. We celebrate his life here on earth and that is wonderful, but the real joy is knowing that we will be able to spend eternity together.
Do you have two birthdays? The first birthday is the day you were born and the second birthday is the day that you trusted Jesus to be your Savior. If you do not know how to be born again please go to SOS homepage and scroll down to the ABC plan of salvation. Do what it says.Then fill out a contact form and we will send you materials to help you in your new life.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
The Ham Festival in Tennessee was successful for the SOS Events team on Saturday. There were three people who got saved.
Thank you to those who prayed and please continue to pray for the new christians.
Acts 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
This is a photo from the Plant City Flea Market, yesterday. William, who speaks Spanish, has been unable to be at the flea market for several weeks due to a health problem. He is back now and here he is leading woman to the Lord who only speaks Spanish. Welcome back, William and Praise the Lord for this lady who accepted Jesus. Also, thank the Lord for His healing.
Pray for SOS Events workers as our busy season is now in full swing with events every week throughout the Fall season.
Psalms 34:1 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
Sometimes we are disappointed when only one person repents and gets saved at an event that SOS Events participates in. The effort to go, set up a canopy, get workers, pray, prepare, pay for and all the things that must be accomplished before the event even starts, then after that only one soul.
This is what happened on Friday night this week in Pennsylvania at an event. Then we remember that God is in control and the joy in Heaven over this one person is taking place. We do not know how God will use this person in the future. So today we also rejoice in this one soul that made a decision to follow Christ. All the work and effort put in by SOS Events volunteers is worth that one person and they will be rewarded for faithfulness because God looks at our heart.
On Saturday in Alabama there were 7 decisions for Christ at the SOS Booth at Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church’s Back to School Talent Show and Cookout. PTL!!
Ephesians 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
Isaac, age 20, and a young lady, age 23, called on the Lord yesterday at the Plant city flea market! God is truly amazing!
Luke 15:10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
Another picture of the Family Fun Day in Tennesee. What a blessing to see children come to the Lord at an early age.
Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
SOS Events main goal is winning people to the Lord and we always rejoice when souls get saved at events. There is another blessing that causes excitment and joy. When Christians who have never won anyone to the Lord or have not had witnessing as a priority in their lives come to SOS Events to be trained and go to an event, they see how God blesses their effort and people get saved.
There is an old quotation: “Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime.”
That is so true when soul winning. As individuals each team member can witness but when we teach others to be witnesses the training lasts them for a lifetime and more people will have the opportunity to be saved.
Mark 1:17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
Usually on Wednesdays at the Flea Market in Plant City, Fl, the majority of people saved are Spanish speaking. Yesterday, however, there was no one who spoke Spanish to work in the SOS Events booth.
Sometimes our faith is small and we think that if a certain worker is not there no one will be saved. God knows our hearts and that we desire to see people come to him no matter what the language or who the soul winners are. The results yesterday were amazing! Eleven people trusted Jesus as their Savior and all were Engish speaking. Also, there were only two SOS Events workers at the booth, Randy and Alice.
God blesses at every event. He knew exactly who the soul winners would be and also, who would be in the crowd. Praise the Lord for His faithfulness.
Psalms 44:21 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.
