Celebrating 4th of July

July 5, 2019

The best way to celebrate the 4th of July is to witness at an event and to see people find true personal freedom from sin by accepting Jesus as their Savior. Some of The Florida team did exactly that this year. It is wonderful that children and adults come to events, not expecting to have their lives changed and then they come to the SOS Events booth and find salvation. A true reason to celebrate not only on Independence Day but any day of the year.

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

At a recent churchyard event this couple ask Jesus to be their Savior. SOS team leaders Dena and Glen (in blue shirts) had the privilege to lead them to the Lord.

Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Salvations at a Churchyard Event in New Jersey

June 5, 2019

God gave us a wonderful day to witness to a number of eager little children and adults attending the Taste of the World Event. It was a blessing to meet the Piscataway Church ministry leaders and the devoted members of the congregation once again this year. Ms.Linda greeted us and said that her grandson made the decision to follow the Lord in 2017 at our SOS table. We had 15 to 20 visitors who stopped by our SOS Events display board and heard the “3 Things God Can Not Do”. 12 of them came to the back and heard the ABCs of the Bible.

Six children made the decision to accept our Lord Jesus as their Personal Savior.

Two children and one adult received the Assurance of Salvation promised in the Scriptures.

Vasha, age 10, wrote: What you did for me today is that you made me stronger, sometimes, I am not honest but now He has made me more truthful. And, I thank God for this and will never forget this.

Tony, age 7, wrote: Jesus is our Savior.

Luke 18:16 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

14 People on Their Way to Heaven

June 3, 2019

“Praising God for the 14 souls saved Saturday at Santuck Flea Market under the SOS Events Ministry tent. We talked to 129 people at the SOS board and gave out 175 tracts. We all had some very special moments today as lives were changed and eyes and hearts were opened up to the saving Grace of Jesus Christ. We had several people come by to say hello and to thank us for being there again , some had gotten saved 2 years ago and are a testament to this life saving ministry. Thank you Lord for the blessing of talking to and praying for people that need reassurance. A big thank you to Carl Norton for volunteering today Serving Our Savior. We are all so blessed to be able to share the Gospel with the lost and show the love of Christ.”

Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Repentance

Have you truly repented and invited Jesus to be your Savior and take away all your sin?

SOS Events Christian Baptized

April 29, 2019

Yesterday at Boone’s Chapel in Alabama they baptized a young lady. Over a year ago this young lady gave her life to Christ through SOS Events at Boone’s Chapel Fall Festival. It is wonderful to see her following through with Believers baptism.

There are many salvation stories that do not get told as a result of SOS Events Ministry, But it is thrilling to hear of the lasting results of people who’s lives have been changed. It is a blessing to be part of a ministry that God uses to bring people to salvation by trusting Jesus to be their Savior.

Romans 6:4

Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Preparing for a Trip

April 23, 2019

When going on a trip, business or pleasure, we prepare by making sure we pack everything we may need. Proper clothing, toiletries and identification. We are looking forward to the trip with great anticipation.

We are preparing for the greatest trip we will ever take, the journey to Heaven. The preparation should be the most important thing on our minds. The first thing is salvation. No one enters Heaven without it. Then, daily Bible reading and prayer. A pure lifestyle is important, also. Are you ready for this trip?

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Alabama SOS Events

April 22, 2019

Saturday was one of those days when you can sit back an marvel at God’s perfect timing. Beth and Wesley were delayed at the New Site Car Show and Trade Day until after 8 am because of rain. They set up the SOS Events Ministry tent and shared the Gospel with a very small amount of passersby due to the windy and rainy weather. After a few hours most people were leaving so they decided to call it a day.

God’s perfect timing. Beth needed to go to Foodland to grab a bell pepper for chilli and that was God’s Divine Appointment. Wesley got out and shared a tract with Montavius who was on his break (again perfect timing) and he wasn’t 100% sure that he was going to heaven. He asked Jesus Christ to be his Lord and Savior right in front of the store as people walked by. And the angels and heaven rejoiced over the one who was added to the Kingdom!!!

So as we know sometimes it is not about sharing with a lot of people it’s about God’s perfect timing and divine appointments he has set up for us . Thank you Lord for a rainy and windy day so we could be right where you needed us to be and for the Gospel to be shared to a open heart . This is what Montavius said after he prayed “After I prayed a heavy weight was lifted from my spirit. I feel all the love of God flowing all over me He is awesome!! ” This is what a tract handed out and a burden for the lost can do. It was a great day Serving Our Savior!!!

Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

The Cross

April 19, 2019

John 19:17 & 18 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha: Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

Two Gardens

April 18, 2019

The Garden of Eden— where God put Adam and Eve to enjoy the pleasure of life and commune with Him….Until the devil tempted Adam and Eve and SIN entered into the lives of all mankind. From that moment on “all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” That gave mankind no hope of going to Heaven without some payment for sin.

The Garden of Gethsemane— where JESUS went to pray. 3 times He asked His Father to remove the cup of wrath He was about to drink, but each time He submitted to the Father’s will. He was “exceedingly sorrowful unto death,” In this garden Jesus surrendered his earthly life to die on the cross for the sins of mankind. Jesus sacrifice was payment for our sin if we accept Him as our Savior.

JESUS is God.

John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Romans’ 10:9 – That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
