Happy New Year from the staff at SOS Events. May God grant you a blessed year. If you walk with Jesus every day you will be blessed no matter what your circumstances.
I Thessalonians 4:1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.
Mary, a young virgin, was engaged to Joseph. God chose her to be the mother of the Lord Jesus. When Gabriel came to her she was frightened at first, listened to his message and then was humble and honored. In those days being pregnant without marriage was a great disgrace but Mary was willing to obey.When the angel told her of Elisabeth’s pregnancy, Mary, went to stay with her. Elisabeth confirmed what the angel had told her because the baby leaped in her womb.
If you have not read and thought about the people in the unfolding Christmas story it would be good to read it again. We learn much about obedience and love of God as we realize that every person was human and had the same emotions, fears, joys and problems we do. Mary is a great example to us and she surely was blessed among women.
Luke 1:30-31 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary:for thou hast found favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.
“Our country’s in great need of a spiritual awakening. There have been times that I’ve wept as I’ve gone from city to city and I’ve seen how far people have wandered from God.” Billy Graham
It is time Christians look around and weep and pray for their country. There are many people from countries other than America who read this blog, and at SOS Events we are thankful for each one who takes the time to read and follow. Today we did not limit the burden for the USA only but for every nation in the world.
Christian, the best thing you can do for your country is to pray and tell everyone you can about Jesus and His love. We can make a change in lives, one soul at a time.
Luke 19:41 And when he (Jesus) was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
Alabama Fair: 69 decisions for Christ on day 7. Wonderful blessing from the Lord.
Psalms 24:5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
Talladega Race this weekend and SOS Events will be there! Not to watch the race but to be a witness for the Lord. Alabama SOS team does a great job and 2 couples from Florida will be traveling to help also.
What a privilege and opportunity to win souls to Jesus. Pray with us that many people will make decisions for Christ this weekend.
Luke 14:23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
It is a great time to make plans to participate in an event for SOS Events. It may seem early as the Strawberry Festival in Plant City takes place in March in 2016 but there is 133 people needed to witness at that event.
If you are in Florida and would like to be part of a terrific opportunity to win souls to Christ contact the Home Office via email: info@sosevents.org or phone: 813-494-7512 for more information.
Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
As we honor God today, let us think about some of his wonderful names. Counselor, Prince of peace, Savior, Lily-of-the-valley, Lord, Jehovah and many more. The Bible says that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow. Some people use God’s name as a curse word and that should break a Christian’s heart to hear that. Let us be careful how we use His name.
Philippians 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
JESUS is the answer to all the storms in our lives. He will calm the most fearful storm if we have faith and trust in Him.
Mark 4:37-40 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
The United States of America was founded on the principles of the Holy Bible not the Koran.
Every day on the news Christians freedoms are being taken away. There are many posts on Twitter, websites, and other social media that tell us what is wrong but very few give an answer.
The only answer is found in the Bible.
2 Chronicles 7:14
“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.”
Christians, we need to ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any sin in our heart, ask forgiveness, and fervently pray for our country.
