“By a simple prayer of faith, you can give your life to Him today.”

Billy Graham
“True prayer is a way of life, not just for use in cases of emergency. Make it a habit, and when the need arises you will be in practice.”

Billy Graham
“This should be the motto of every follower of Jesus Christ. Never stop praying no matter now dark and hopeless it may seem.”

Billy Graham
“There is a great counterfeiter who adapts himself to every culture, even deceiving true believers at times. He doesn’t charge on the scene clothed in red and wearing a hideous mask but charms his way as an “angel of light.” This is how Satan operates.”

“Envy and greed always—always—exact a terrible price. I have never met an envious or greedy person who was at peace.”

Billy Graham
“Nowhere has God promised anyone, even His children, immunity from sorrow, suffering, and pain. This world is a “vale of tears,” and disappointment and heartache are as inevitable as clouds and shadows. Suffering is often the crucible in which our faith is tested. Those who successfully come through the “furnace of affliction” are the ones who emerge “like gold tried in the fire.”

Billy Graham
“Suffering in life can uncover untold depths of character and unknown strength for service. People who go through life
unscathed by sorrow and untouched by pain tend to be shallow in their perspectives on life. Suffering, on the other hand, tends to plow up the surface of our lives to uncover the depths that provide greater strength of purpose and accomplishment. Only deeply plowed earth can yield bountiful harvests.”

“We are going through a sexual tempest, a bombardment provided by unprecedented exploitation of cheap sex by moviemakers, theater owners, publishers, and producers of pornography. [There is more] openness of talk about sex, acceptance of public nudity . . . homosexuality. Sex revolution, no! But sex pollution? Yes!!”

“Tears shed for self are tears of weakness, but tears shed for others are a sign of strength.”

“I believe in angels because the Bible says there are angels; and I believe the Bible to be the true Word of God.”

Billy Graham
“Man is precisely what the Bible says he is. Human nature is behaving exactly as the Bible said it would. The course of human events is flowing just as Christ predicted.”

Billy Graham
“When the church begins to entertain the flock and respond to the cult of self—it is diminished to a mere community center.”

Billy Graham
“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land” (2 Chronicles 7:14).”

Billy Graham
“We must repent of our prayerlessness. We must make prayer our priority. Even our churches today have gotten away from prayer meetings.”

Billy Graham
“The Bible is the only Book in the world that predicts the future. The Bible is more modern than tomorrow morning’s newspaper.”
