Safety is of the Lord!

September 29, 2022

Those of us who live in the path of Ian a strong hurricane are thankful for God’s protection. Many have lost power, including some of our staff and volunteers of SOS Events Ministry.

Please continue to pray for the cleanup crews and that those who are still expecting damage as this storm moves northward, those who have lost homes and property.

The Answer To Keep From Sin

September 23, 2022

God’s Word tells us how we can keep from sinning. The answer is to memorize verses in the Bible.

Peace in a Troubled World!

September 21, 2022

How can we have peace in this world of troubles? Wars, illness, poverty, unrest and all the problems we see in our country and even in our own lives.

Jesus gives us the answer in the Bible. Peace comes from knowing and trusting in Jesus. Are the troubles still there? Yes, but Jesus can give a peace that is beyond our understanding.

If you are worried or burdened about anything, give all those burdens to the Lord! He wants to give you peace.

Teenagers Excitement!

September 20, 2022

So much time is spent on complaining about the youth of today. On Sunday a great group of teens came to a SOS Events Training and they got excited about telling others about Jesus.

These teens did a wonderful job learning and practicing the 3 Things God Can Not Do. They already are planning to go to a Trunk or Treat at another church in October.

If only we as adults could get as excited about witnessing as these young people did. Please pray with us for more volunteers of all ages to join with SOS Events.

Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. 1Timothy 4:12

Come and See!

September 19, 2022

He saith unto them, Come and see.
‭‭John‬ ‭1:39‬ ‭KJV‬‬

The Bible verse is in John. Jesus is talking to two of his disciples. They ask Him a question and He answered with the words, “Come and see.”

When SOS Events volunteers go to an event, they are taught to use the same words Jesus used, Come and see.

Come and see the 3 Things God Can Not Do. SOS Events Training in Avon Park, Florida took place yesterday at Florida Avenue Baptist Church. In this photo a woman is practicing what she has learned. Getting a passerby to come and see the display board.

Training is important. It gives volunteers confidence to go to witness at events.

Do you have confidence to tell someone how they can have eternal life? SOS Events Ministry can help you. The training is not only to go to events but you can have confidence to witness to your neighbors, family and friends.

You can schedule a training in person, virtually or on line. Contact the SOS Events office for more information. Phone: 813-494-7512, email: info@sosevent.org.

Answered Prayer

September 14, 2022

The secret to having your prayers answered is found in this verse from God’s Word.

To abide in Jesus daily requires dependence upon the Holy Spirit in which we do three things: Walk by faith. Spend focused time. Engage in intentional actions.

To have your prayers answered, you must abide in Jesus.

Rejoice!

September 13, 2022

This Bible verse is one that can get you through all kinds of trials.

The secret is in the word Will. We will rejoice. It is a decision. Decide to rejoice no matter what!

If you are depressed, sick, have a burden, find one thing that the Lord has done and rejoice in that. It may be a simple as seeing a butterfly or hearing bird calls in the morning. A beautiful sunrise or sunset, whatever you can find to thank the Lord for will bring you comfort in any situation.

You will be surprised that soon your problem will seem small when compared to what God has done. He loves you and wants to comfort you. Choose to rejoice today!

Fellowship!

September 12, 2022

At our church, Fellowship 301, we have been challenged to get out of our comfort zone and meet new people.

On Friday I did that. I determined to do something I had not done before so I went to Joy Fellowship luncheon. That is a group of senior citizens who get together for fun and fellowship.

What a blessing, new people, new friends and some great Christian conversations.

On Saturday, a women’s meeting at another church where the opportunity to discuss the Bible principles with Kathy who I had never met before.

We as Christians need one another. Think of ways you can get out of your comfort zone. Go to a gathering you have never been to before, invite someone to lunch, visit with your neighbor.

The blessing will be yours., especially if you reach out to a person who is not saved.

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1John 1:7
