August is a month with many birthdays. We celebrate with our family and friends on their birthday. That is a good thing to do.
But, there is a more important birthday that everyone needs if they want to go to Heaven.
The Bible tells us we must be born again. So my question is…Do you have 2 birth days? The day that you were physically born and the day that you asked Jesus to be your Savior.
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.
Have you ever lost your car keys? You look everywhere and you just can’t remember where you left them. Then you find them. What a wonderful feeling. You are so happy.
There are many stories in the Bible about things that are lost.
God tells us through these stories that we are lost until we find Jesus is our Savior. Even the angels in heaven rejoice when we ask for Jesus to forgive our sin and invite Him into our lives.
Luke 15:8-10 Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it? And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost. Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth
Do you get tired of waiting? Waiting for answer to a prayer. Waiting to get a job. Waiting for coronavirus to go away. Waiting to see family and friends. Waiting to feel better.
There are many times in our lives we wait. Usually impatiently. But, God tells us to wait on Him and He will bring it to pass in His timing.
God knows what is best for us and when it is best for us. Today while you are waiting for whatever, take the time to draw closer to God. His blessing is just around the corner.
Jesus is the only foundation on which our church, home, ministry and government should be laid.
As we think about our worship today, if we are physically going to church or joining virtually, we need to make sure that the foundation of where we worship is Jesus.
It is our responsibility as Christians to make sure Jesus is the sure foundation in every area of our lives.
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.
Thank you who give to SOS Events Ministry. Founded in 2001 this ministry has documented over 70,000 souls who have made decisions to follow Jesus. There are some of you who have prayed, volunteered and given financially since the very beginning. Others are new supporters.
Contributions come in snail mail with checks or even cash and there are those people who prefer to give through PayPal. The amount varies from one time large gifts to the little ladies who may send a dollar or two each month. Every donation is appreciated and used to win souls to Christ.
The only paid positions in SOS Events are the small office staff. All others from the President of the ministry to volunteers who spend their own money many times for travel and even cost of events receive nothing from SOS Events except prayer and appreciation. There are a few missionaries who receive designated support and every penny goes directly to them.
Some of you who read this blog may be “turned off” by the subject of money but it does take money to function and win souls in today’s economy. If you have never given to SOS Events but would like to give, every donation large or small is appreciated and will be used to win people to the Lord. Go to the home page and click on the donate button or send via snail mail to SOS, P.O. Box 189, Dover, FL 33527.
If you cannot give financially you can do something even more needed. Pray everyday for the staff, volunteers and most of all for lost souls to be saved.
If you don’t know elections are coming soon, just go to your mailbox, turn on TV or radio and the political adds are everywhere. This year more than ever it is important that we get out and vote. You can also vote by mail.
However, the most important “vote” we can ever do is to decide that Jesus is the One who takes away sin and brings comfort and peace into our lives. No politician can do that.
John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
