Praise the Lord for the 22 people who made decisions for Christ at the Back to School event in Dade City, Florida on Saturday. Families attended this event together. This event is to benefit children, however, parents are with them and it is a great opportunity for SOS Events to present the gospel to people of all ages.
(Pictured below are SOS Events team members waiting for people to come to the booth to hear the gospel)
Acts 14:7 And there they preached the gospel.
If you are not winning souls you are displeasing God. You are either a soul winner or you are backslider
Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
Over 25 salvations, 500 tracts handed out, many jungle pastors equipped with mini-boards and tracts and many interventions and appointments by God
1 Corinthians 3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
What do all these things have to do with sharing Jesus? Find out soon when the SOS/Amazon Camp Hope mission team shares on the blog about their recent trip to South America.
Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
This is a typical day at the flea market in Plant City, Florida in the summer when school is out. Many families with children, however, school is beginning so the children will not be with their parents. Sometimes this is an advantage and sometime not, but whatever the crowd God always brings people to the SOS Events booth to hear the gospel and be saved.
Pray for continued success on Wednesdays at this marketplace.
Acts 14:7 And there they preached the gospel.
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.
Days are like suitcases…all the same size…but some people are able to pack more into them than others.
Are your days filled with empty hours or are you so busy you don’t have time to do the important things, like witnessing to that person you meet, praying or spending quality time with your family? We each have 24 hours in every day. Let us spend that time wisely, doing something that will count for eternity.
Ephesians 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
SOS EVENTS has some dedicated workers who go out to win souls no matter what the weather. In Florida this season of year the temperature rises to between 85 and 95 degrees and it feels much hotter as the day progresses. However, every Wednesday there are faithful workers who go to the Flea Market in Plant City to win souls. In the last 2 weeks 18 people have trusted Jesus as their Savior. That is dedication. These workers are very much appreciated and deserve a giant THANK YOU.
2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
A young boy, William, 7 years old got saved at Daily Vacation Bible School recently. He was so excited and went home and told his little 3 year old brother, Isaac, that that he needed to give his heart to Jesus.
Isaac replied, “I will give my heart to Jesus someday but I need it right now.” (William and Isaac are the Curtis’ great grandsons)
Children, especially when very young, sometimes do not understand the terminology we use to present the Gospel. Just as a reminder to those of us who witness to make sure that the person we witness to understands how to be saved.
The simple “3 Things God Can Not Do” is a wonderful way to witness to older children and adults but when talking with younger children we need to make sure they understand. Sometimes it is better to give a tract or witness to the parent and trust God to bring the child to Himself when the child is a little older. Always ask the Holy Spirit to direct you when witnessing.
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.
This past weekend was spent at a reunion with friends and family. What a blessing to share the good times we had together many years ago. It is hard to say good bye to some of these people we are thinking we will not see them again this side of Heaven. But, what a reunion that will be when we all get to Heaven and have eternity to spend with first of all our Savior Jesus and then with our loved ones who have gone on before.
A few people did not come to the school reunion and we missed them. Think of how sad it will be to be in Heaven if friends or family are missing.
Conclusion: Christian, witness to that friend or relative who is not saved. You would be surprised at how many are waiting for you to invite them to be saved.
Unsaved friend, you do not want to miss the great Reunion in Heaven when you die. Make sure of your salvation today.
2 Corinthians 6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
