Wonderful Wednesday!

January 31, 2018

Wednesday is always a blessed day for SOS Events Ministry, because it’s a soul winning day. Praying your day will be blessed too and you are praising the Lord.

Psalms 145:2 Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

Psalms 118:24 This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

Encourage Yourself

January 26, 2018

Sometimes we get discouraged and look at our life negatively. In the Bible, David, had a lot of reasons to be discouraged. His Brothers treated him with no respect, Saul tried to kill him, and he had many enemies. But, he encouraged himself, went on to become king and was a man after God’s heart. Not a perfect man, but a good example for us. So today, whatever your problem, encourage yourself to do right, look to God for the answer and you will have a happier, healthier life.

1 Samuel 30:6 And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.

We Are In The Army

January 24, 2018

This is a picture of our modern day Calvary! We as Christians are in the army also. We fight not against a physical enemy but a spiritual one. The Bible tells us to fight the good fight. So hang in there Christian. The battle is not over until Jesus comes to take us home. Then we will see Jesus win over our Adversary and his followers.

1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Successful Meeting

January 22, 2018

The First Annual SOS Events Florida Meeting was a great success. Our thanks to Gapway Baptist Church for the wonderful meeting space. The room is spacious and the kitchen well-equipped. Those who attended had a good time. We were challenged by our newest board member, William Slater. There were several Great testimonies from team members of what SOS Events Ministry means to them. The food was good, we were able to get acquainted with some team members we had not met before, and there were several prize drawings. The object of the meeting was to get instructions and excitement for winning souls in 2018. SOS Events would like to make this even better next year by having all our team members, past and present, from all over the USA to come and join the Florida team in February 2019. The date to be announced soon. (The following verse is meant for church attendance but it is used today to encourage us to meet together and help get excited to win more souls to the Lord.)

Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

Be Glad

January 18, 2018

No matter what the circumstance, weather or trial in your life, God tells us to rejoice and be glad. Not always easy to do but God will bless if we rejoice out of obedience even if we don’t feel it at the moment. The key is “we will”.

We Have A Big God

1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Pray For Your Pastor, Today

January 14, 2018

Today is Sunday and your Pastor needs prayer. Please do not bother him before service with problems or things he needs to deal with. If you speak with him encourage him. Be faithful to church and give of your time and finances. Write him a note of appreciation. Tell him about the good things his children are doing, but if they need discipline tell him after the Sunday service or better yet wait until tomorrow. Do not go to his wife and complain to her about her husband and expect her to fix him. You want your pastor to be used of God to speak to your heart. Do not get upset if he steps on your toes during a sermon, it is the Holy Spirit convicting you. Remember, the visitor in your church may need to be saved and we show God’s love by our love one for another.

Philippians 2:2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

Giants in Your Life

January 11, 2018

Sometimes we have things in our lives that are overwhelming. Problems, illness, relationships, sin and other things that seem impossible to overcome. Can the giant in your life be defeated? Absolutely! Remember David and Goliath. David was young and only a Shepard but he had faith that God would defeat Goliath, this 9 foot tall giant. Armed with a slingshot and five stones and faith he killed the giant that plagued Israel. God brought the victory. You can have victory in your life over and “giant” you are facing. Give it to the Lord, have faith and victory can be yours.

1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Illness

January 9, 2018

Many people are having problems with being sick this time of the year, especially in the southern USA. The drastic change in weather is probably a factor. The best thing to do if you or your family or friends are ill is to pray. Moms have an especially hard job to care for sick children and they need prayer and a helping hand would be a blessing. Adults who are ill please take care of yourself, rest and pray. The old remedy is chicken soup. Maybe not scientific but it sure makes one feel better. Our prayer for you is to get well soon and trust in the Lord for a quick recovery.

James 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
