“Repent when you fail, and immediately seek God’s forgiveness and restoration. Sin breaks our fellowship with God.”

“Persecution, whether it is physical, social, or mental, is one of the worst types of pain, but those who persecute us are to be the objects of our prayers.”

They cannot endure the persecution that may follow an acknowledgment of Jesus Christ.”

“Guard your tongue, and use it for good instead of evil. How many marriages or friendships have been destroyed because of criticism that spiraled out of control? How many relationships have broken down because of a word spoken thoughtlessly or in anger? A harsh word can’t be taken back; no apology can fully repair its damage.”

Scores are seeing each week the trash that Hollywood produces. Truly our children are “movie mad.”

Billy Graham
“We are to pray in times of adversity, lest we become faithless and unbelieving. We are to pray in times of prosperity, lest we become boastful and proud. We are to pray in times of danger, lest we become fearful and doubting. We need to pray in times of security, lest we become self-sufficient.”
