I Thessalonians 1:2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;
This week there will be a series of Bible verses giving thanks to God for His bountiful blessings.
Carolyn Curtis is thankful for opportunities to update SOS Events Ministry to supporting churches. Today she will be in New Jersey at Faith Baptist Church. This church has been a great friend to SOS Events and many souls have come to Jesus with the faithful members there.
1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.
With all the hustle and bustle of the Holiday season there is a very important Holiday that gets shoved in the background. Christmas decorations go up the day after Halloween and everything focuses on Christmas (not the true meaning but the materialism).
The true American Holiday, Thanksgiving is all but forgotten, unless of course it is for the feasting on turkey and the trimmings.
Thanksgiving. Thanks. Giving. It is a day when the focus should be on giving God the thanks for the bountiful blessings He has given to us.
Let us take time this coming week to thank The Lord for all His blessings.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
Remember the challenge? Find something special to give Thanks to the Lord everyday in the month of November. What are you thankful for today? Have you shared it with someone else?
November is the month that in the USA we celebrate Thanksgiving. We need to be thankful everyday not just one day a year. Especially when we are facing problems in our lives is the time we need to stop and reflect on how good God is to us. Here is a challenge for you… every day for the rest of the month thank the Lord for at least 3 things to be thankful for. Try to find mew things each day. You will find your spirits lifted and your relationship to God will be closer each day.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7
A special thanks to the faithful volunteers who came to work in the SOS Events booth on Saturday and Sunday at the Rattlesnake Festival in Dade City, Florida. Saturday there were tornado watches. Several tents blew away but God was good to us as nothing was damaged. There were very few (maybe 10) people who came around. God blessed with a family, a Dad and his young son accepted the Lord. Sunday was a little better with sunny skies. Everything was still in chaos, booths were set up anywhere with no organization, but again God blessed with 3 Salvations.
1 Timothy 1:12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;
