All the succession of kings in the Old Testament were but a preview of the arrival of the True King, the Lord Jesus Christ, the promised Messiah. And one day very soon—and I do believe it will be soon—Jesus will return on a white steed to judge all who have rejected Him. The Bible tells us His eyes will be flaming like fire, His head will wear many crowns, and His robe will be dipped in the blood of His enemies. Riding with Him will be the armies of Heaven. On that day, there will be no mistaking or denying Him.

Franklin Graham Delivers Message At Pentagon’s First-Ever ‘Christmas Worship Service’

"I want to thank you all for sharing in this first Christmas Worship Service here at the Pentagon," Hegseth told the hundreds of attendees. "It's the least we could do in this season. We do it monthly as well — a prayer service — which we will continue to do, because, as George Washington did that first year, he went on bended knee for providence in impossible tasks."

Franklin Graham: In The Face Of Persecution, Backing Down Cannot Be An Option

The message of the Gospel invites scorn, ridicule and even violence from those who hate the truth. Christian persecution is growing in our country. American churches and synagogues are increasingly facing attack. As a member of President Trump’s recently appointed Religious Liberty Commission, I’ve been inspired to see how Christians are boldly standing on God’s Word and refusing to bow to a woke culture that thumbs its nose at God.

Franklin Graham: At The Crossroads Of My Life, A Tough As Nails Missionary Showed Me God’s Way

One day the hospital faced a $500 need and she asked me, “Franklin, will you pray for this need?” The next week, Eleanor came running, waving a slip of paper. “See, Franklin? Look! God answered your prayer.” She showed me a check for $480. I joked that she needed to tell God He was $20 short—I definitely had an attitude. But through Aileen’s ministry, God began showing me how He answers prayer and how He could use me in His work.

Franklin Graham: Godly Wisdom And Discernment — The Word Of God Is The Main Weapon In The Believer’s Arsenal

It’s easy to make excuses for not memorizing Scripture. The Bible can be intimidating. But I know some strong believers whose daily devotions include reading five psalms and a proverb, so that they repeat those books every month. Before long, they know those books almost by heart, possessing a treasury of Biblical strength and wisdom.

‘No One Has Refused Prayer’: Even In Death, Billy Graham Chaplains Say Kirk’s Faith Is Helping Turn People To Christ

Following the shooting, a team of BG-RRT chaplains deployed to Utah and Phoenix, Arizona, where Charlie Kirk’s home and nonprofit headquarters—Turning Point USA—are located. Most people the chaplains encountered felt broken by the state of our nation, and they needed someone to help them process the tragedy and their grief. “Something that I found that’s unique to this deployment [is that] no one has refused prayer,” said chaplain Jo Rozier. “This is an act of grace.

By The Grace And Mercy Of God, We Have Been Entrusted With The Answer To The World’s Greatest Problem

The world needs peace through strength, but as Christians, we trust that “God is our refuge and strength” (Psalm 46:1).
