AMEN 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I feel so lonely and scared of my future…. But I know that my Savior will never leave me and I pray that these feelings disappear in Jesus name. I pray for this world and South Africa, my country which is filled with so much corruption and the forgotten poor. Please pray for us in Jesus name, amen
The Lord will never leave you nor forsake you. No one nor anything can snatch you out of his hand. He keeps his Word. Seek Him with all your heart, mind, and soul. In all things acknowledge Him and He will direct you in all you do. Even when we are not faithful He is still faithful. He will raise up people to pray for South Africa, for the people and for the poor. We may be poor but we are rich in spirit when we have Jesus Christ living in inside of us and when we sow to the things of the spirit. Please ask God to show you as you read His Word answers to your doubts and fears. Read His Word first thing each day and speak to Him. He is always there waiting for you to call upon Him each day and throughout the day. For He loves you.
@@corinnetorres149 Thank you my angel and may God’s richest blessings be on u and your family.
Do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow has enough worries…the bible.

Love how at 20:05 he politely declines the applause. So many modern pastors all but beg for cheers and even pause for expected showers of applause like a TV sitcom.
Whoever is reading this may your dreams come true and may Jesus Christ bless each and every one of your days. In Jesus’ mighty name AMEN
Jesus Christ is not a magic genie. If he would grant our wishes, then everyone would turn to him just to have what they want. Read the Bible in Romans and see.
I got nothing from jesus. He’s mostly silent. He wants my obedient and love, but in return I get nothing for this life. What a waste of time and effort.
@@Dan-di9jd You got nothing from Jesus? That’s on you. He died for you. He waits at the door for you. All you have to do is open the door of your heart to him. Call out to Him. He will answer. God is the heart knower, you can’t play at it. Jesus doesn’t owe you anything. You are the disobedient sinner. He’s your Brother, who took your beating. That means you could have eternal life, not because of you. Because of Him. God, our Heavenly Father, sent His Loving, obedient, only begotten son to save you. God loves you. Jesus loves you. In THIS side of existence, you get to direct your choice to follow your Brother’s example, so all the heavenly host can sing hallelujah; Glory be to God, celebrating your spiritual “homecoming”, or you can choose to go the easy, sinful, self-serving route that Satan, who hates you and is the prosecution to the very crimes he tempts you to commit, has trailblazed for you. Jesus fought for your soul, Satan would steal you away from your loving, heavenly, family, and take joy at your downfall. The choice is yours. Just as each of us have that choice. Satan trips. Jesus shepherds his precious ones to life everlasting. No tears, only joy. Only you can decide for you. It’s personal. There is only one you. I hope you will read the Word of God. Jesus is The Logos: The Word, of God. The Living Word. God’s love letter to you is the written word: the Bible.
✝️🙏🏻🙇🏼♀️🕊️🙌🏻 Good luck on finding your way home, brother. 💖 Your choice.
@@Dan-di9jd I know what you mean I am all alone after a life of following Jesus, but I hold out not for this life but for the next.
@@kerrolynntitus9460 no thanks. Jesus blows. All he did was died on a cross but some people did a lot more than that and got nothing at all. Matter of fact while Jesus was dying someone next to him was told by Jesus he would meet him in “paradise” but after which nothing happened at all. Overall Jesus says a lot of things and there are a lot of people in this world so he got to pick and choose.
” There IS a Friend who Sticks CLOSER than a Brother “… Proverbs 18:24 .. THANK YOU, JESUS!!!!!
Well said! I’m publishing a weekly YouTube video on episodes from the life of Don Bosco, entitled ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him Thank you
Peace . Fan. 1. How do . I know . Jesus is with me . He because . I can’t see him physically . I don’t hear him audibly .like a real person. How do I know if he is listening. Please message me. Thank you and . God. Bless you
The more you read the Word, the easier it is to recognize His voice. It’s rare to hear an audible voice but one of the many ways He speaks is through thoughts and emotions. By studying the Bible, you begin to learn the way that He thinks and feels therefore you’ll be able to recognize Him when He shows up within your thoughts. It also takes an awareness of your thoughts and emotions. You cannot identify Him if you’re not aware of your thoughts in the first place. Hope this helps!
@Leslie Iris
Amen! Hallelujah
I’m so Lonely, firefighting took a toll on my spine resulting in multiple spine surgeries causing chronic pain please pray for me! I need a miracle!
I’ll pray for you. Please pray for me, too. Hang in there.
😕🙏🛐
I will pray for you. And thank you for your selfless service as a first responder. God is with you.
I had to retire at 49 from forestry fire fighting on bulldozers in south florida for 21 years and my lower back spine injury. It’s been a difficult 14 years of retirement. I miss the adrenaline rush and the forest fires. They could never fix me, but put in a neuro stimulator that I rarely use because I do mostly nothing at 64. I know my limitations. Firefighting destroys so many bodies and minds. Peace.
Take dominion and authority over your body and say in the Name of Jesus I am HEALED !!! Believe it take it receive and never say other wise. Thank God for the healing and it will be Manifested. Give him the GLORY
I was so sad feeling so lonely 😞nobody was calling me none was with me. Was scrolling though my phone no-one had time nothing was making me feel good then God was there I’m so happy I believe in him and so sorry I doubt sometime I really pray that I can be more focused on him I’m so happy he’s with me everytime even when I forget 🥺I can’t stop crying but I’m not lonely anymore.
I felt like that too but Jesus loves u n me so much! We don’t need no other like him. The glory to him 🙂
James says ‘every good and perfect gift comes down from the father of lights on whom there is no variation or shadow of turning’. He will always love you! His grace is a gift that will not change, paid for fully by Jesus death, burial, and Resurrection. Shalom. May you encounter the Lord’s love today
God is good!!
Give me your whatsapp. I will be your friend and pray for you as well
It is estimated that Billy Graham preached to over 200,000,000 people during his lifetime. The Bible says that the gospel will reach the ends of the earth before the second coming and I feel Mr Graham’s life was definitely part of God’s plan to accomplish that. There’s no question that he was anointed by the Holy Spirit here on earth. He brought countless sinners to Christ through his unwavering integrity and his direct messages of truth and faith from the scriptures. What a blessing to have his sermons at our fingertips anytime we want them
Correct What A Blessing. He was
Amen
The glory to God! We need more preachers like him. This man knew how to put the words together. Sadly his no longer with us but left gems for us to watch some of them .
Yes indeed he reached many, “BUT”, remember the truth in the word. “Lord haven’t I lead many to you, prophecies spoken in Christ name, performed miracles in Christ name”, and the Lord said “Depart from me, I never knew you”! Submission, humility, giving to the poor in need, all crucial to the service of God. I’m not saying Billy didn’t do this but I’m saying we must all aspire to the truth in the word regardless of who has spoken as orators before us.
Deportation of all Christians Muslims from India to Arabia and the west will end loneliness and find Jesus and his father Allah.
Sin makes us lonely because it makes you SEPERATE from God. How True!
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven?
That got my attention too. What a dynamic statement.
How true
Yep
Sin ???
Lying and deception and eating meat 🥩 is a sin it defines Christianity and Islam
Was suffering from horrible depression and loneliness. Found this sermon and am already feeling better. I don’t need to relapse tonight 😂💜✝️
Feel Good 👍👍
You’re not alone. Hope you’re doing well.
Praise Jesus you are healed in Jesus name
Jesus is a friend that sticks closer than a brother. Talk to Him.
Give Him your heart now!!!
My Mom had been silent for several hours, and her breathing slowed down considerably. Later, she started talking about how beautiful Heaven was. She said words couldn’t describe it. She wanted all of us to know. She mentioned seeing her Mom. She mentioned hearing dogs barking. She kept saying I want to see Jesus. The last thing she did was raise up her arms and say I surrender all. Then she stopped breathing.
what a moving story good to know she will be in heven.
How absolutely lovely. Thank you for sharing. 🙏🏽🌅🕊
I was a high and stoned for 25 years.
From roughly 1975 to 2000. My mother says she took me to see billy in the early eighties.
I don’t remember it. But I believe her.
I love this man.
I’m sickly now. But I’m ready to meet my Heavenly Father.
Praise be to God.
May the Lord be with you.
God bless
@@scott6504 thank you.
@@austinleap5924 thank you.
I’ll pray sir for you’re sickly
There will never be another one like him in our generation.. My mother listened to him. Many times she would try to get me to slow down and listen to him at 19 years old.. Fast forward 21 years now I’ve slowed down and I’m reborn, found redemption through the Most High. I listen to him speak now. I thank you Lord she planted those seeds in my heart. 11 years ago I lost her to cancer, but today I have peace knowing she’s in that glorious Kingdom. Jesus is the way the truth and the life. He saved this wretched sinner he can save you too. Believe 🛡👑🙏✝️💛
🕊🌅🙏🏽🤗
Wow, that’s amazing the Lord is Great indeed. Thank you as well for these eye opening words and may God Bless you!
And may God Bless Everyone!
Billy Graham was an incredible and devoted servant of Christ . But you are right in saying that “There will never be another one like him in our generation”. There may be a servant that God raises up that exceeds the reach of Billy Graham.
Just like MICHAEL JACKSON there will Never EVER EVER Be another🔥 BILLY💕GRAHAM🔥🙏
I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God’s presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I’m going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ’s sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!
Hallelujah! My story is VERY similar to yours. God is SO real! 🙌🏽🙏🏽♥️☮️💟✝️
I love your story. I’m so happy that your life has changed for the better. I know of how powerful God is and how He changes lives like he changed mine. There is no one that cannot be turned from their wicked ways if they call upon Christ.
You really have really been through many Trials and Tribulations,as you brought up Prayer,that really is a blessing,when I start to cry or finish a Prayer with a great big smile on my face no one or nothing in this world can understand that feeling unless they have Faith in a blessing from God,God’s Will be done
Why don’t preachers explain what’s really going on, instead of all this religiosity? Do they not know, are they really so unaware? “Forgive them, Father, for they know not what they do.” Forgive your parents; they didn’t know any better. They were 2 disturbed, traumatised, unaware children, who hoped each would save the other; they sought happiness through each other, that turned to disappointment, blame, & hate. They were under a spiritual compulsion to inflict on you what was done to them. Once you really understand that, you can forgive, & stop resenting them, & that same spirit when you encounter it in others. Sit quietly, & observe your thoughts, but don’t get carried along into unconsciousness by them. Do this morning & night, until you start to become objective to them; then the thoughts, judgements, & emotions will no longer control you. That is true prayer. Meditation is clearly mentioned many many times in the bible. Prayer is typically you talking to God; meditation is God talking to you. Listen to Him, and you will see…the real you will emerge.
Amen…I’d ask someone to pray for me I keep going back to do something that I know it’s bad
I’m lonely and my heart hurts. Please pray for me.

I started my journey as a christian and my boyfriend of 2 years left me, i begged him and even tried to convince him to stay with me he refused, i tried to make him a believer he said its stupid stuff and i should leave him alone. Its good we arent together but im lonely right now
@@MisslaurenChild2002
Blessings to you. You are not alone. Jesus, and all of Christendom are here with you and for you. Do not be disheartened. Over and over again God tells us he is with us and for us. Isaiah 41:10, Matthew 28:20, 1 Peter 5:7, John 16:32-33.
Unfortunately we cannot “make” anyone believe. Some come to Jesus on their own, perhaps by hearing a good sermon or homily. Some come to Jesus when they are at the end of their rope and they run out of alternatives. Some never do. Your former boyfriend may eventually realize he made a mistake, but maybe not. In Paul’s second letter to the people of Corinth, he warned them not to be “yoked” to people who do not believe, or who believe in idols. There is wisdom here. It is very difficult to maintain a healthy relationship with someone who isn’t playing by the same rules you’re trying to play by, especially for a life partner. That’s not to say that we’re any *better* than those who don’t believe (we’re not — all have sinned), but simply that we need to establish healthy psychological boundaries because we know that they’re not of the same mind as we are about God and associated ethics. In the end, you may find that this troubled time was what was necessary for you to find the *right* boyfriend. You are now free to find someone who is on the same path with you, and you can grow together. You might even consider praying for this unknown person right now (as Graham did with his daughters when they were little).
Peace and blessings.
I too found it to be that way, but at first that’s how it is least I find it that way because everybody you once knew Liked the way you were before but now you’re no longer like that you walk in the light and they see that and they don’t like that because it exposes their sin!
You’re better off with people that aren’t like that just stay in the light Jesus is with you sister!
