Today, our Pastors need prayer more than ever. Some are under extreme pressure to not hold church service, others fear to preach the truth, your Pastor may be discouraged. Every Pastor has a great burden and responsibilities.
1 Thessalonians 5:25
Brethren, pray for us.
September is a new month. It is time to look ahead and put the past few months behind us. It has been a difficult time for all of us, especially SOS Events Ministry.
Events have been closed, but it is now time to look forward to the events that are open. People need the Lord now more than ever. Please pray with us that events will continue to open and many people will trust in Jesus as their Savior.
Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
God answered several prayers when the Ohio team went to the Car show in Toledo.
Prayer for souls to be saved and 14 precious people to heard the gospel and asked Jesus to forgive their sins and invite Jesus to be their Savior.
Rain was expected but prayers were answered and the Car Show went on as planned.
1 John 5:14-15 – And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
SOS Events Ministry are blessed to have young girls come to the home office to work during vacations. The girls have to be in seventh grade or older.
This year there have been six interns that have worked in the office. They learn office skills, how a ministry operates and more importantly that God blesses when they trust in Him.
School has started, so we will not have them until vacation comes around again. Will will miss them, but we will pray that they have a successful school year. Pray with us for their safety, wisdom and good health.
Colossians 1:9 – For this cause we also, since the day we heard [it], do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
God once again blessed the SOS Events volunteers at the Plant City, Florida, Flea Market. 22 precious people invited Jesus to be their Savior.
In this photo, William is witnessing to a woman and her daughter. This is the last week that students will be at the Flea Market, school starts next week. Pray that attendance will continue to grow.
Our desire is to see more souls saved. Please pray with us that more events open. There are SOS Events workers in several States that are willing to go but no events are open because of the coronavirus.
Proverbs 11:30
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise
You may feel like the one who is about to fall into the hole, or you are helping to carry your friend, neighbor and fellow Christian. At this time of uncertainty and confusion, we need lift one another in prayer.
Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
Ephesians 1:16
-I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men. 1 Timothy 2:1
Sometimes, we have to send out an SOS to the Lord in prayer. He is faithful to answer. An acronym for how to get prayers answered follows:
Sincere: it is important that we are sincere when we pray. God knows our heart and He knows if we really desire what we are asking for.
Obedience: we must be sure we are obedient to God’s word. There must not be any known sin in our lives.
Specific: we must be specific and tell God exactly what we need.
Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
As a Christian it is hard to watch the news, especially the liberal media.
The Bible tells us to love one another. Do you want to others as you would have them do unto you. What we are seeing in the news in our towns and cities is the complete opposite of what our country should be.
We need intervention from God. The only way that he’s going to heal our land is if we Christians humble ourselves and seek Him.
The coronavirus has caused many problems for Pastors. Each Pastor has many decisions to make that involve not only his family but the people in his congregation.
As the churches begin to open again, it is the Pastors responsibility to keep people safe, give everyone encouragement and most importantly preach the gospel.
Pray for your Pastor today. Tell him or send him a note to be an encouragement to him.
1 Timothy 5:17 – Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
Romans 15:30 – Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ’s sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in [your] prayers to God for me;
Today when we want to communicate via phone we have freedom to talk (or text) anywhere, anytime without having to be in one place to use the phone as this child in the picture. Prayer is like that. We do not have to be in a specific place only able to speak to God in church or at a designated time of day. God is always ready to hear our prayers directly without any person, place or thing. Jesus is the reason we have a direct line to God.
1 Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing.
