The Last Supper!

April 4, 2023

Jesus met with His disciples in an upper room that a man allowed them to use for Passover.

Jesus washed the disciples feet knowing thar Judas will betray Him.

Jesus gave the disciples bread. They ask Him, “ Is it I?” He told Judas it is him and Judas leaves.

Then Jesus continued with the bread and wine. Jesus told the disciples to do this is remembrance of Him.

We now observe Jesus death, burial and resurrection by participating in Communion. It is a time for us to reflect and confess any sin in our life and thank Jesus for His body and blood a sacrifice for our sin.

Communion is not for salvation. It is for Christians to remember Jesus who is the way, the truth and the life.

Luke 22:19-22 – And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

Jesus Righteous Anger!

April 3, 2023

Did Jesus get angry? Yes, rightfully. Greedy people were selling sacrifice animals in the temple. These merchants where talking advantage of the people who came to worship in the temple.

Jesus called them thieves. They must have been selling animals at prices that were more than the animals were worth.

Not only that, the temple was a place for prayer, not merchandise. These merchants were a distraction for the people who wanted to worship.

It is a lesson to us as true believers. Do we allow the love of money or anything else distract us from worshipping God as we should? It is a good time to search our own hearts and make sure that nothing stands in our way when we worship.

Jesus, Triumphal Entry

April 2, 2023

Hosanna!! The people shouted as Jesus entered Jerusalem, riding on a donkey.

Palm leaves were laid in the path, honoring Jesus. Little did they know they were honoring the King of kings and Lord of Lords.

By the end of this week things will change. The people will be shouting a very different phrase.

A lesson for us. Do we honor Jesus one day and on another day turn away from Him when something happens that makes us think He is not who He is.

Our Savior, redeemer, and comforter. Jesus deserves all our honor, praise and worship.

And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way. And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord: Mark 11:8&9

GOD, sent His Son, JESUS to be our Savior. The next week as we look forward to resurrection Sunday, we will focus on Jesus, the One who died on the cross to pay the penalty for all our sin.

1 John 4:14 – And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

Is Anything Too Hard For GOD?

March 31, 2023

This question was answered in the Bible when Sarah was told in her old age she was to have a child. Sarah laughed.

Sarah did have a child when she was 90 years old and her husband was 100. The child was named Isaac, which means laughter.

Is anything to hard for God? No. The story of Sarah should give us hope and assurance when we are going through things in our lives that seem impossible. Nothing is impossible with God.

Not Giving Up!

March 30, 2023
Ginger and Bob training volunteers.

SOS training at First Baptist of Nesbit, Mississippi. Bob and Ginger Hansill, SOS Events Trainers and Team Leaders, went from Florida to Mississippi last weekend. Their goal was to train new volunteers to present the gospel using the “3 Things God Can Not Do”.

This church has a great opportunity to reach people for Christ. God blessed the church with property where they have state of the art soccer fields. The whole community comes to play soccer on these fields. The tournaments were scheduled.

53 people came to the training, excited to use their new knowledge to win people to the Lord on the weekend.

Then the storm hit! Tornado warnings, destruction and even death in parts of Mississippi. The soccer fields were flooded and all the games cancelled.

They are not giving up! Everything is rescheduled and these volunteers are ready to go! Pray for the events that will take place this week and in many weeks and months ahead. This will be an ongoing venue to win souls.

Pastor Darin and Jamie Kres

Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: Philippians 1:6

Having Trouble With Sin?

March 29, 2023

The way to overcome sin: First you must accept Jesus as your Savior. Then read and memorize God’s Word.

This verse tells us if we hide God’s Word in our hearts we will not sin against God.

All our sins are forgotten if we have trusted in Jesus death, burial and resurrection.

It is important for us to daily read the Bible and take time to communicate with God through prayer.

If we are born again, God has also done something wonderful for us! He sent the Holy Spirit to dwell in us and be our teacher, guide and He will lead us in the right path.

Rodeos in Alabama

March 28, 2023

Dwayne Banks, SOS Events Leader in Alabama takes the “3 Things God Can Not Do“ to Rodeos.

The last 2 weekends the Lord blessed with 4 salvations at the first one and 10 people accepted Jesus as their Savior at the 2nd Rodeo.

What a blessing to have many different venues to present the gospel to people who may not ever attend a church service.

Rodeos, fairs, yard sales, community events and many others. God is where people are. We praise Him for the opportunities to go and tell.

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15

Sunshine State Quartet

On Saturday SOS Events Ministry held the 5th Annual Celebration. It was a great success. Music by Danny Riddle and then the Sunshine State Quartet. Food, fun, photo booths and many other activities celebrated what God has done through SOS Events the past year.

All praise and glory belongs to the Lord for His faithfulness bringing people into the knowledge of salvation through SOS Events Ministry.

It was a joy to see many new faces at the event this year. People who have worked winning others to the Lord for the first time this past year. Some people came who are interested in learning more about SOS Events and how to witness at events.

God truly has blessed this ministry and we do celebrate all He has done.

O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Psalm 95:1
