Billy Graham’s The Truth About Hapiness

On June 9, 2019

In christian articles, Featured, Preaching/Sermons

If you ask me about people who have influenced my life, I can tell you straight away that Billy Graham is one of them. I have a high admiration about Billy Graham’s humility, boldness, and uncompromising preachings. I can spend hours watching him preach or read his books. He is such an inspiration.

Today, I am featuring a synopsis of his preaching about happiness. I watched this video several times and on the process, I scribbled his message. Read on.

Happiness does not depend on abundance. It depends on something else. It depends on something deeper. The Bible says in Isaiah There is no peace to the wicked.

There will be no peace in your heart if you don’t know God. You will be like a restless sea. If you look at the sea and see how restless it is, that like the heart of a person that doesn’t know Christ. Do not be deceived God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap

Blessed are those whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.(Romans 4:7) The word “Blessed” means happy! If you have your sins forgiven and your inequities have been covered by the blood of Christ, then there is happiness, there is joy, and there is peace. And God can forgive sin because of the cross. God send His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to die on the cross and He put all of your sin on Him. Jesus was the sin bearer. He became the scapegoat. He took all the penalty for your sin.

“I love you and I can forgive you!” – God

There is hope!

Hebrews 13:17 ESV
Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.

Matt Redman: Nothing But the Blood of Jesus

In christian songs, Featured, Headline, Praise & Worship

Your blood speaks a better word
Than all the empty claims I’ve heard upon this earth
Speaks righteousness for me
And stands in my defense
Jesus it’s Your blood
[Chorus]
What can wash away our sins?
What can make us whole again?
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can wash us pure as snow?
Welcomed as the friends of God
Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus

Your cross testifies in grace
Tells of the Father’s heart to make a way for us
Now boldly we approach
Not by earthly confidence
It’s only Your blood
[Chorus]
We thank You for the blood
We thank You for the blood
We praise You for the blood
We praise You for the blood
Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus

Top Bibles Verses about the Blood of Jesus:

“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace.” (Ephesians 1:7)

“and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” – Hebrews 9:12-14

“And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you; for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins.” – Matthew 26:27-28

“Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.” – Acts 20:28

“And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are You to take the book and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation. “You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will reign upon the earth.” –Revelation 5:9-10

“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” –1 John 1:7

“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.” – Revelation 12:11

“For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it for you on the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that makes atonement by the life.” – Leviticus 17:11

David Wilkerson – Trusting God with All Your Tomorrows

By Thor

In Featured, Headline, Preaching/Sermons

Today, I stumbled to this preaching of the late David Wilkerson. He was the Founding Pastor of Times Square Church in New York City. He was called to New York in 1958 to minister to gang members and drug addicts, as told in the best-selling book, The Cross and the Switchblade. I must confess that after I read his book, I am deeply impacted of his heart for Christ. What a faithful servant of God he was. Again, with this preaching, “Trusting God with All Your Tomorrows,” I found encouragement and inspiration as I face this New Year. It’s true, we have tendencies to worry about tomorrow. It is very easy to worry and be anxious of what will happen to us. The devil keeps pointing to us of our failure and putting us down in depression. David Wilkerson in this preaching shared the life of Abraham and the Apostle Paul about handling our future. I encourage you to watch the full video below and make sure you SHARE to people you care who might be needing to hear this message. – Thor

David Wilkerson Trusting God with All Your Tomorrows

Do Not Worry

“Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

“So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” (Matthew 6: 25-35 NKJV)

Amazing Boy Jotta A Sings Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) – Joven’s Talentos Kids

In Featured, Headline, Inspirational

Jotta A, the Brazilian Child Singer with the breathtaking performance (see video here) of Michael W. Smith‘s song Agnus Dei, is back with another amazing performance at the Joven’s Talentos Kids, a talent show with similar format as the famous shows like Britain’s Got Talent. This time, he is singing the song of Chris Tomlin‘s version of Amazing Grace (My Chains are Gone).
Jotta is simply talented and most of all anointed. He has turned christian songs into a new breed and heights that are now becoming more and more popular even to the unbelievers. He is really a new singing sensation! Thanks to Youtube, Facebook and Twitter. Jotta’s choices of songs are really unpopular to the secular world of reality TV but surely, he can showcase his singing talent with divine blessings from his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

“Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)” Lyrics

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I’m found
Was blind, but now I see
‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

My chains are gone, I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, Amazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine
