Overcome Temptation

Overcome Temptation By Billy Graham   •   February 20, 2017 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. —Psalm 119:11 When temptations come, let me suggest that you ask God for strength-and also to show you the way He has prepared for your escape. One other word of counsel; be very sure that you do not deliberately place yourself in a position to be tempted. All of us are not subjected to the same…

Verse of the Day – Psalms 23:1-3 KJV

¹ The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.  ² He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:  He leadeth me beside the still waters.  ³ He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

Tame Your Tongue

Tame Your Tongue By Billy Graham   •   February 19, 2017 “If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain. —James 1:26 The problems of the world could be solved overnight if men could get victory over their tongues.

Verse of the Day – Proverbs 3:11-12 KJV

How Will You Live?

How Will You Live? By Billy Graham   •   February 18, 2017 And Jesus said, . . . and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. —Mark 14:62 The world in which we live is full of pessimism. No Christian has the scriptural right to go around wringing his hands wondering what we are to do in the face of the present world situation. The Scripture says…

Verse of the Day – Romans 8:26 KJV

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

Our Eternal Home

Our Eternal Home By Billy Graham   •   February 17, 2017 I create new heavens . . . —Isaiah 65:17 What kind of place is heaven? First, heaven is home. The Bible takes the word “home” with all of its tender associations and with all of its sacred memories and tells us that heaven is home. Second, heaven is a home which is permanent. We have the promise of a home where Christ’s followers will remain forever. Third, the Bible teaches…
Living Enthusiastically for God By Billy Graham   •   February 16, 2016 Good salt is worthless if it loses its saltiness; it can’t season anything. So don’t lose your flavor! —Mark 9:50 (TLB) Columbus was called mad because he decided to sail the uncharted ocean. . . . Martin Luther was called mad because he presumed to defy the entrenched religious hierarchy of his time. Patrick Henry was considered mad when he cried, “Give me liberty, or give me death!” George…

If that last prayer of yours was your last chance to talk to God, would you be happy with what you said?

If that last prayer of yours was your last chance to talk to God, would you be happy with what you said? It was an interesting message that Eddie preached tonight.  It folded right in with the lesson from Sunday School the other day.  Bottom line of the message;   Why DO we find it so hard to pray? I kind of see it more like, “Just how good is your relationship with God?” Let that question sink in for a…

The Ultimate Peace

The Ultimate Peace By Billy Graham   •   February 15, 2017 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you . . . —John 14:27 Jesus said, “Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.” Where does peacemaking begin? How can we become peacemakers? Can peace be discovered within ourselves? Freud has told us that peace is but a mental attitude. Cast off our phobias, shed our neuroses, and “bingo!”-we’ll have the coveted peace…
