God’s Children!

January 29, 2022

God created us, but we are not His children until we are born into His family. Jesus said, “Ye must be born again.”

How? You may be asking. First, Admit you have sinned. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

Believe on the Lord Jesus. That if thou shall confess with thy mouth and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him (Jesus) from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Call upon the Lord. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

When we have trusted Jesus as our Savior, the Holy Spirit comes into our heart (spirit) and we are born again.

We are then joint heirs with Jesus! Sure of Heaven and all the wonders that will be ours.

God’s Promises

January 25, 2022

The way the world is today, we wonder why God allows sin, wars, murders and all kind of evil to continue.

God wants all people to be saved. He is long suffering so everyone has opportunity to hear the gospel.

However, the time will come when He will be done and the door will shut and you will no longer be able to come to know Jesus. If you have not made the decision to accept Jesus as your Savior, do it today before it’s too late.

If you are a Christian it is your responsibility to be a witness to others. Do you want to stand before GOD empty handed?

Why Do You Go To Church?

January 23, 2022

Hebrews 2:12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee.

What do you hear when you go to church? Music that honors the Lord or music that is about you?

Preaching that makes you feel good or preaching that steps on your toes and puts you under conviction?

Do you go to church because it is the thing to do and will give you prestige or you go because you truly want to worship God?

Hard questions, but think about the church you attend and why you are going there.

The Secret Of Joyful Living

January 17, 2022

It is not really a secret at all. It is the acronym is JOY!

JESUS, OTHERS and YOU. Put Jesus first, others 2nd and yourself last. That is a recipe for true joy in your life.

Jesus is the true source of joy, even in the most difficult circumstances. If you put others ahead of yourself it is hard to have a pity party. Finally, you will get to think of yourself, but then you go back to the first, Jesus.

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Matthew 6:25

Do We Love Our Neighbor?

January 14, 2022

Do you find it hard to love some people? Maybe it is a fellow worker, a disagreeable neighbor, someone in your family, a person of another race or religion.

It is a natural reaction to not love someone who has hurt you, but that is the problem. It is a “natural” reaction. The Bible tells us in Ephesians as Christians to put off the old man which is corrupt and put on the new man, which is holy.

How then do we overcome the lack of love in our lives? Start to pray for that person if it is an individual. Ask God to change your heart if it is a group of people.

We cannot be an obedient Christian or have God’s blessings if we have hate in our heart.

Don’t Give Up!

January 12, 2022

Twelve days into the New Year and you are ready to give up on your resolutions. Already missed the goal. Don’t give up.

Start again. read your Bible everyday, determined to exercise, going to eat right, be a better communicator? Did you miss a day, 2?

Start again. Never loose sight of your goal. Get into God’s Word. Ask the Lord to help you. He wants you to be successful in whatever you do.

Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Thankful For SOS Events Volunteers

SOS Events volunteers, Doug and Richard

SOS Events are blessed with many volunteers who work at various events throughout the USA.

In this New Year many more volunteers are needed to go to events. SOS Events provides training to teach people how to present the gospel using the “3 Things God Can Not Do”.

Please pray that God will direct fellow Christians to get out of their comfort zone and join a team to lead people to the Lord in this simple plan of salvation.

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest. Matthew 9:38

Faith Over Fear

January 6, 2022

It is hard to believe that we are still having the coronavirus around for over 2 years. This has caused much division in our country, workplaces and even among families. It is time to put our trust in the Lord, and ask Him to heal our differences as well as this disease.

As Christians we need to take reasonable precautions, however, we do not need to be overwhelmed by fear and frustration. God promises to protect His children. Let us put our trust in Jesus, our Savior and give Him all of our fear no matter what the circumstances.

What Are You Waiting For?

January 5, 2022

The Bible says, today is the day of salvation. Are you waiting until you are good enough? There is none righteous.

Are you holding on to a sin that is in your life and you do not want to let go? Jesus cleanses all our sin. Give it to Him.

Maybe you are trusting in another god who you think will get you to Heaven. Jesus is the only way. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

You may think you have plenty of time but we are not guaranteed one more moment of life. Do not wait any longer. Make today your day of salvation.

What Are You Thinking?

January 4, 2022

The Bible says what we think, is what we are. We can be positive or negative.

We are so tempted to think negative, unproductive and even sinful thoughts. What we think is what we become.

Have you ever been unable to sleep because something is bothering you that your mind will not let you rest? I think we have all been there.

What can we do about these thoughts? The Bible has the answer.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Philippians 4:8
