There is a poster that hung in my office several years ago. It had a picture of a kitten hanging on a branch of a tree and the words were, ” Hang in there baby, Friday’s coming.”
Today things sometimes look bleak and we get discouraged but the good news is that Jesus is coming soon. What a joy to know that we shall see Him face to face, if we know Him as our Savior.
Luke 21:28
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Hang in There
January 15, 2014The Great Phycisian
January 14, 2014Everyone has to go to the doctor for some reason. Sometimes it is something non-threatening like a cold or sore throat. Sometimes it is serious like heart attack or cancer. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all physicians were Christians? We are very fortunate to have one that is a Christian. He prays for us and we likewise pray for him.
How can you tell if you doctor is a Christian? Ask him or her or tell them you are praying for them. Always carry tracts to hand out when going to your doctor. (SOS has a simple tract if you would like a sample)
Also you can search the web to see if there is a Christian physician in your area.
Always remember that it is the Great Physician, Jesus, who is the true healer. Go to Him first and then trust His servant doctor for the best care.
Matthew 8:7
And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
Rejoice in The Lord
January 13, 2014Do you wake up with a song in your heart? Today my song was “This is the Day That The Lord has Made, I Will Rejoice and Be Glad in It.”!
That made me think that rejoicing is a choice. We choose to be joyful or we can choose to be miserable.
Today let us make the choice to be glad in The Lord.
Philippians 4:4
Rejoice in the Lord alway:and again I say, Rejoice.
Quote for the Day
January 10, 2014“The church that is man managed instead of God-governed is doomed to failure. A ministry that is college trained but not Spirit filled works no miracles.”
Samuel Chadwick
John 14:12
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
The Lord Laughs
January 7, 2014Today the whole USA is experiencing extremely cold weather. In many of the northern states it is dangerous to even go outside with the temperature way below freezing, not to mention the snow and ice, which makes driving hazardous.
The “experts” tell us we have global warming, and we are in great danger from heat.
I can imagine God looking down on us and laughing at our foolishness.
If you are someone who is at home today, not able to go out because of the weather, take this unexpected opportunity to worship God with added Bible study and prayer.
Our prayer for you is that you stay warm and safe.
Psalms 37:13
The Lord shall laugh at him:
for he seeth that his day is coming.
One World Religion?
January 6, 2014Welcome to 2014
I’m sure the early 16th Century believers thought we must be near the end!
I’m sure the year 250 looked just as distressing!
and Jesus proclaimed, “what a perverse generation” 2000 years ago.
Not much has changed,as we regress, Christianity will be labeled a cult and outlawed completely. We will be shot on sight for sharing the Gospel. (In America….already happening in some places)
I’ve read the different articles on “Chrislam”, well, what a brilliant scheme!
If I wanted to deceive the World, this is exactly how I’d do it. Combining all religions and removing Christ as Saviour and God.
This makes sense to all non-believers; Politicians, Military, Rights groups, etc.
The challenge is two fold:
1. Bring the lost to Christ; as many as possible
2. Get the new convert to learn and mature…..an ignorant Christian will be in as much danger as a non-believer if Chrislam becomes popular.
To win and disciple the lost is the goal of SOS Events Ministry.
2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
If you are unfamiliar with the term Chrislam, search it out for yourself.
Are You Making a Difference?
January 4, 2014There is a story about a little boy walking along the seashore that was filled with star fish that had been washed up on the sand. The little boy walked along picking up every star fish that he could and tossed them back into the sea.
A man came along and said, “Why bother with those, there are too many, and they will just die.”
The boy answered as he picked up another one, “it makes a difference to this one.”
There are over 7 billion people in the world, and as an individual we can not win them all to Christ, but we can witness and make a difference in a persons life, one at a time.
Will you make a difference to someone today?
Jude 1:22
And of some have compassion, making a difference:
God Does Answer
January 2, 2014When God gives us a no for an answer, keep in mind that there is a much greater yes behind it.
It is not a rejection but a redirection.
Jeremiah 33:3
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
All Things Become New
December 31, 2013Today is New Years Eve. A lot of people will be out celebrating and partying, not thinking or caring about The Lord. Many make resolutions that will be broken in a week or two, but true followers of Christ look forward to serving Him and being obedient in the coming year.
Let us use this time to recommit our time and talent to Serving Our Savior.
God gave us a new beginning when He sent His Son, Jesus to die on the cross. When we accepted Him old things passed away and all things became new in our lives.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Witnessing in the New Year
December 30, 2013The soul winners at SOS Events, witnessing in events for many years, believe that in half of churches in America 50% of church members will never see heaven.
Isn’t it a shame that the churches of today send missionaries all over the world but do not send people out right here in America to tell others about Jesus Christ. The problem is that most Christians believe that it is someone else who must share the gospel. Not everyone that hears will be saved but they need to have the choice. The Bible says everyone must HEAR the gospel and then the Holy Spirit will bring them into the kingdom of God. It is every Christian’s responsibility to be a witness.
This new year, why don’t we ask God to bring to us the opportunity to witness and to see people be saved.
Acts 1:8
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you:and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
