Jesus demands to be Master and Lord of every part of your life. Is He Lord of your mind, of what you think, read, and believe? Of what you dream about, meditate on, and entertain yourself with? Do your eyes belong to Christ? Can [you] ask God’s blessing on it? Can [you] do this to the glory of God?
Billy Graham
I believe this is one of the tests of the Spirit-filled life. Is Christ becoming more and more evident in my life? Are people seeing more of Him, and less of me?
Billy Graham
Make it your goal to build strong foundations for your life—foundations constructed from prayer and the truths of God’s Word.
Billy Graham
Why are our inner lives so important? One reason is because our thoughts determine our actions.
Billy Graham
Jesus Christ said the gate that leads to destruction is wide and the way is broad, but the gate which leads to life is straight and the way narrow.
Billy Graham
You can’t change the past. But with God’s help you can change the future. No matter what your life has been like so far, God wants to put your feet on a new path . . . a better path . . . His path.
Billy Graham
[We] are not here by chance or by accident; God put us on this journey called life. We came from Him, and our greatest joy will come from giving ourselves back to Him and learning to walk with Him every day until we return to Him.
Billy Graham
An architect draws the plans for a new building—but it still has to be built. A composer writes a new piece of music—but it still has to be played. A chef devises a new recipe—but the ingredients still have to be cooked. In the same way, God has given us a blueprint for living—but we must know what it is and then put it into action.
Billy Graham
Some day our journey through this life will be over and we will embark on another journey—one that will last forever.
Billy Graham
If we don’t know who we are, we’ll never know how we ought to live.
Billy Graham
I am still learning, for the Christian life is one of constant growth.
Billy Graham
Do others see something of Christ in your life? Do they see a “family resemblance” to Him by the way you live?
Billy Graham
God’s goal isn’t just to remove the bad things in our lives; He wants to replace them with good things. His plan is to remake us from within, by His Holy Spirit.
Billy Graham
The Christian life isn’t a playground but a battlefield.
Billy Graham
When I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, I found the secret of life!
Billy Graham
We need to know what the Bible teaches about right and wrong. Every day we are battered by messages—from the media, advertising, entertainment, celebrities, even our friends—with one underlying theme: “Live for yourself.
Billy Graham
Sometimes we face “gray areas,” things that aren’t necessarily forbidden by the Bible but still may not belong in our lives.
Billy Graham
Sin, like a deadly cancer, has invaded every area of our lives: our bodies, our minds, our emotions, our wills—everything.
Billy Graham
Life [can] become unbalanced, and in the process God gets pushed to the fringes. Instead of staying at the center of our lives, Christ gradually gets relegated to the shadows. Don’t let this happen to you!
Billy Graham
The self-life manifests itself in self-indulgences, such as self-love, self-will, self-seeking, self-pride . . . It takes self-denial to turn off the television and spend [time] in prayer . . . and read the Scriptures . . .the only object in life is that Christ may be honored.
Billy Graham
Supporters of the [environmental] movement often appear to worship not the God of heaven, but the god of nature. This is a dangerous form of idolatry. Anytime animal life becomes more sacred in our view than human life, we have lost sight of our proper priorities.
Billy Graham
Because of the brevity of life, the Bible warns that we should be prepared to meet God at all times.
Billy Graham
We need to encourage new believers to feed on God’s Word—it is nourishment for the soul.
Billy Graham
The words 'believe' and 'repent' are now largely replaced by other terms such as "Give your life to Christ', 'Open your heart to Christ', 'Do it now', 'Surrender completely', 'Decide for Christ', etc., and in similar language those who profess conversion are sometimes represented as having 'given in'.
Iain H. Murray
Our sufferings may be hard to bear, but they teach us lessons which, in turn, equip and enable us to help others.
Billy Graham
The most remarkable thing about suffering is that God can use it for our good.
Billy Graham
Evil and suffering are real . . . They aren’t an illusion, nor are they simply an absence of good. We are fallen creatures living in a fallen world that has been twisted and corrupted by sin, and we all share in its brokenness. Most of all, we share in its tragic legacy of disease and death.
Billy Graham
Can the sin of one or a few cause suffering for many? The answer, of course, is yes, for no sin is isolated in the life of the sinner. It spreads like poison gas into every available crevice.
Billy Graham
God is not blind. He knows about you and your problems. He knows of those who are suffering . . . and His love for His children will never leave in times of trouble.
Billy Graham
Nowhere does the Bible teach that Christians are to be exempt from the tribulations and natural disasters that come upon the world. It does teach that the Christian can face tribulation, crisis, calamity, and personal suffering with a supernatural power that is not available to the person outside of Christ.
Billy Graham
Some of the happiest Christians I have met have been life-long sufferers. They have had every reason to sigh and complain, being denied so many privileges and pleasures that they see others enjoy, yet they have found greater cause for gratitude and joy than many who are prosperous, vigorous, and strong.
Billy Graham
When suffering comes, learn to trust each day into God’s hands . . . let your lips be filled with prayer and praise.
Billy Graham
A suffering person does not need a lecture—he needs a listener.
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.
Billy Graham
[The Lord] does go with us through our sufferings, and He awaits us as we emerge on the other side of the tunnel of testing—into the light of His glorious presence to live with Him forever!
Billy Graham
In His thirty-three years on earth, Jesus suffered with man; on the cross He suffered for man.
Billy Graham
We enjoy the sense of God’s presence in the midst of suffering here and now. I have talked to people who are experiencing deep pain or severe difficulties, and they have said, “I feel God is so close to me.
Billy Graham
Jesus suffered more than any other person in human history.
Billy Graham
The book of Job does not set out to answer the problem of suffering, but to proclaim a God so great that no answer is needed.
Billy Graham
I believe one reason that God allows poverty and suffering is so that His followers may demonstrate Christ’s love, mercy, and comfort to [others].
Billy Graham
Being a Christian does not exempt us from tough training, which may mean suffering. If the training were easy, we would not be prepared for the tough days ahead.
Billy Graham
The beginning of all pain and suffering in the world started with one act of disobedience. Christian and non-Christian alike have inherited the consequences from our common ancestors, Adam and Eve—our polluted environment and flawed human nature.
Billy Graham
May we store up the truths of God’s Word in our hearts as much as possible, so that we are prepared for whatever suffering we are called upon to endure.
Billy Graham
We can react with bitterness and hate God, as some do, or we can accept suffering as a natural part of life and a condition that comes with living in this world. We cannot avoid suffering, but we can determine our response to it.
Billy Graham
True faith and suffering frequently go hand-in-hand . . .Living for Christ, walking in His way, will not be an easy path.
Billy Graham
The Bible and the history of the church both demonstrate that God’s way for the suffering of His people has not always been the way of escape, but the way of endurance.
Billy Graham
God has prescribed the remedy for the spiritual sickness of the human race. The solution is personal faith and commitment to Jesus Christ . . .if we deliberately refuse it, we must suffer the horrible consequences.
Billy Graham
No one is exempt from the touch of tragedy: neither the Christian nor the non-Christian; neither the rich nor the poor; neither the leader or the commoner. Crossing all racial, social, political, and economic barriers, suffering reaches out to unite mankind.
Billy Graham
In my years of global travels, I have seen a world in pain . . . Without God’s guidance, our response to suffering is a futile attempt to find solutions to conditions that cannot be solved.
Billy Graham
Ours may be the heritage of the withheld promises. We have been blessed through the endurance and faithfulness of those who have suffered in the past; the people around us, or those who will succeed us, may be blessed through our trials and suffering and how we react to them.
Billy Graham
The Bible teaches that we are to be patient in suffering. Tears become telescopes to heaven, bringing eternity a little closer.
Billy Graham
Tens of thousands of God’s saints and sufferers through the ages have found their dark nights lightened and tortured souls strengthened because they found help from the Spirit in the Word of God.
Billy Graham
The sin of self is a deadly sin.
Billy Graham
The word repentance is sadly missing today from the average pulpit. It is a very unpopular word. The first sermon Jesus ever preached was “Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” [Matthew 4:17 kjv].
Billy Graham
The central message of the Bible is Jesus Christ.
Billy Graham
Jesus made everything so simple and we have made it so complicated. He spoke to the people in short sentences and everyday words, illustrating His messages with never-to-be forgotten stories.
Billy Graham
When Jesus needed friends, they left Him.
Billy Graham
Not everyone Jesus tried to turn back from the brink of destruction responded—nor will they with us.
Billy Graham
Many people are willing to have Jesus as part of their lives—as long as it doesn’t cost them anything. They may even profess faith in Jesus and join a church. But Jesus to them is almost like an insurance policy—something they obtain and then forget about until they die. What keeps you from being His disciple?
Billy Graham
Though [Jesus’] words were profound, they were plain. His words were weighty, yet they shone with a luster and simplicity of statement that staggered His enemies.
Billy Graham
