One Little Word

January 25, 2016

Have you ever taken one word and studied every verse in the Bible about that word? Love is a good example. In the KJV version there are over 280 verses on the word love not includining suffixes. We learn so much about God and our relationship to Him just from that one little word. 

A few examples:

1 John 4:7 & 8  Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.   He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

Ephesians 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Politics

January 18, 2016

As a citizen of the USA we have a responsibility to be informed about the issues the people running for president and other offices in our government. As a Christian we have the responsibility to love one another.

Having watched all the current debates both Democratic and Republican I see that the candidates have many different opinions on how they are going to run the country if they are elected. 

Christians also have many different opinions on who should be the next president. Sometimes our opinions are voiced in heated discussions and even arguments. We must be careful not to offend a Christian brother or sister because it can cause unrepairable damage in our homes, churches and friendships. It is better to agree to disagree than to fight among ourselves.

Keep informed, pray for our government and leaders and get out and vote. The most important thing is to love one another. Remember God is still on the throne. He is King of kings and Lord of lords. Let us not let politics separate the love we have for one another. 

John 13:34  A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

Praise the Lord

January 5, 2016

Today is a special day for Tom and Carolyn Curtis. It is our 15th Wedding Anniversary. You may not think that is so great but it is really a miracle. Both of us were traveling alone after the loss of our spouses, working for the Lord in different ministries when we met. Tom went to Iowa and I traveled the East coast for a year after we met. Then we worked in a ministry together in Florida for a short time. I had been praying for Tom and about the relationship for the whole year. (Tom had no clue.)

When we married Tom had many health problems and had been told by doctors that he had only 3 years to live. That was back in 1995. He was reluctant to marry in 2001 but God directed him and we have been blessed with a wonderful marriage.

God then led us to begin SOS Events Ministry and in 15 years hundreds of Christians have been trained to serve the Lord, over 60,000 souls have made decisions for Christ and at least 2 other ministries have been started with the training of SOS.

God took two ordinary people and for 15 years has blessed us with a good marriage and a great ministry. So today we Praise the Lord for the blessings He has given and I still believe in miracles.

Psalms 9:1 ​ I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

Family

August 25, 2015

Family is so important. Treasure the family God has given you. It may be very small, just you and a husband, or child. Maybe your family is huge with fifty or more immediate children, grandchildren and more. No matter how many family members you have, love them, treat them with respect and don’t forget courtesy.

If you are a Christian it is even more important to have good relationships with your family. Sometimes misunderstanding can take years to correct but work on it until it is resolved. There is no greater joy than to have great fun and fellowship with the ones you love the most. 

You belong to a unique family; the of God if you have been born again. You have a Heavenly Father, Brother named Jesus and many Christian brothers and sisters. You are never with out a family member with you at all times. Our Father is just a prayer away.

Romans 12:10 Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;

Awesome God

August 16, 2015

Psalms 33:8Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

On the Lord’s Day, He deserves all worship and praise. We serve an awesome God.

Awesome is a word we attribute to God and we should. It also has become a word that we use when we like something or feel that a person is extra special in our lives. 

Sometimes a Christian will admonish another for using the word awesome if they are not speaking of God, but the dictionary does not define that word to describe God only.

The Bible does not even have the word awesome in it and there are only three verses in the whole Bible that has the word awe. Let us love one another and not be critical of another Christian. We are to love the Lord with all our heart and our neighbor as ourselves.

So today let us worship our “Awesome” God in spirit and in truth.

Love One Another

March 24, 2015

A wonderful report from Pastor Romero (right). Over thirty people made decisions for Christ at the Flea Market in Lakeland in the last 2 weeks. This Pastor and his wife, Maria, have a burden to see the Spanish speaking people of this area be saved.

SOS Events is blessed to have a dedicated Hispanic pastor partnering with the ministry. He also, has a burden for the English speaking people. He is bilingual but many in his church are not. He prays for more Engish in his church while we at SOS pray for more Spanish.

His comment was, “We are a team, we work together.” The love that this man and his wife have for souls and other Christians is truly from the Holy Spirit. 

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 13:35
