“When we are filled with the Spirit of God, obeying God, in His will and quoting Scripture, Satan will be defeated.”

“No area of human life is so full of difficulties and heartaches as relationships. If you listed everything that upset you during the past week, I suspect most had to do with other people. People can be selfless and kind, but they can also be difficult, stubborn, ego-driven, thoughtless, mean, selfish, manipulative. But the problem is not just other people; it’s also ourselves.”

“The Bible teaches that faith will manifest itself in three ways. It will manifest itself in doctrine—in what you believe. It will manifest itself in worship—your communion with God . . .It will manifest itself in morality—in the way you live and behave.”

“Neither the devil nor the world, nor even our own evil heart can compel us to sin. It must be by our own consent and will.”

“The devil is a master at making us question God and His Word. Twisting Scripture . . . taking a verse out of context . . .deceiving us into thinking God is mean-spirited—these are some of Satan’s favorite tricks.”

“Sometimes it is difficult to differentiate the Christian from the man of the world. In America, for example, churchgoing has become popular, but churchgoing may not necessarily be accompanied by genuine depth in prayer and Bible study or a change in lifestyle.”

Billy Graham
“Sin is serious—so serious it sent Jesus Christ to the cross. Flee from [sin] and stay close to Christ.”

Billy Graham
“The church should not be pampered but rather prepare for, and expect, persecution—for it is Christ’s body on earth.”

Billy Graham
“Our prayers must be in accordance with [God’s] will. He knows better what is good for us than we know ourselves.”
