Most churches in the USA cannot hold services because of the coronavirus. The Bible tells us to “forsake not the assembly of ourselves together”, however that is not possible right now, but we do have many ways to see and hear great messages via media.
Remember, true worship is in our heart. Sunday is set aside for us to worship God. We can have fellowship with our Savior in a church, our home or wherever we happen to be. What greater opportunity than to have this time to truly worship Him in spirit and in truth.
It is difficult to wait. We are waiting for the time when things get back to normal. When we can go to church, to the grocery store or to our favorite restaurant.
God tells us our strength will be renewed. Do we want things to go back to “normal” or do we want things to be better. Do we want to love Jesus more, appreciate what we have more, witness more, pray more.
Don’t wait to do those things, start now and truly our waiting will not be wasted. With God’s help our strength will be renewed and better than ever.
Many of us have to stay in during the month of April. This is a time that we can use to make us blossom! We can draw closer to God by reading the Bible more. We can encourage others with a phone call or note. We can have time to work on a hobby. Some people are using this time for doing projects around the house.
Take this time to look up to better things to come.
“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.” Psalms 16:11, KJV
SOS Events largest event in Florida is the Strawberry Festival in Plant City. It is coming up quickly. In the past 17 years the SOS Events volunteers have worked 4 hour shifts, but this year the shifts are only 3 hours long. This is a big change. Four more workers every day are needed and addition tickets will need to be purchased.
You can help. Pray for volunteers and that many people will be saved, If you live in the area or will be near Plant City during the Festival, volunteer for a 3 hour shift. If you cannot volunteer donations for extra tickets would be greatly appreciated. Call the office 813-494-7512 or go to SignUpGenius to get the time you want to work. All volunteers must be trained. Several classes are available.
Matthew 9:38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
SOS Events Ministry offers Training to prepare volunteers to witness at events. Yesterday, at Scott Lake Baptist Church several people came for training. It was a small group but everyone was so excited to learn and be ready to go to events to witness. In the class there were various ages from a young teenage girl to a retired pastor. God brings to the ministry people He wants to be His soul winners.
Isaiah 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing.”
Great quote for the world we live in today. When contemplating what to put on the blog, this quote came to mind, but who first said it?
This is a good research project for you today. It is not scripture but a true saying for Christians.
Are you sitting back doing nothing? Content to sit in church and listen, but not going out and witnessing to your friends and neighbors. The conclusion, do something. Join SOS Events and learn how to be a witness for Christ.
John 9:4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
SOS Events Ministry has had opportunity to go into all the world via the website. Reaching people with the gospel in 92 Countries and growing. People have searched for Bible lessons, topics and have been directed to SOS Events webpage. Thank the Lord for these opportunities to get His Word to people all over the world.
An opportunity to introduce neighbors and people to your church is to have an event on the church property. SOS Events loves churchyard events. This past weekend in Lakeland, FL a Block Party was held. Everyone had a wonderful time with food, fun and fellowship, but the best part of the day was when 5 people trusted Jesus as their Savior at the SOS Events booth. Randy Thomas is the Pastor and is also a missionary with SOS Events ministry and God is blessing this growing church.
Acts 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
Halloween is on Thursday. This week has the most events in various places throughout the USA and SOS Events Ministry has many opportunities to be in these events to present the gospel to children and their parents. Several events are taking place today, tomorrow and more throughout the week. Some events were postponed until November weekends especially in the South were storms caused cancellations. Please be in prayer for all SOS Events faithful volunteers as they witness at these events, and for many people to be saved.
2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
About one year ago, Diana, SOS Events office manager, noticed new neighbors moving in down the road from the office. She stopped to welcome them and proceeded to tell them about Jesus. The grandmother with several of her grandchildren made decisions to follow Jesus. Time passed and nothing seemed to happen. But…on Saturday Diana got a call from this grandmother asking if her adult son could visit Diana’s church. Sunday morning David did go to church, the Pastor led him to the Lord. He was back in church Sunday night and yesterday stopped by the office with his 10 year old son, Daveion. Diana not letting an opportunity pass, led Daveion to the Lord.
Pastor, soul winner, SOS Events volunteers do not get discouraged. Be faithful in witnessing and God will bless in His timing.
Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
