Evangelist Franklin Graham is calling on Christians to participate in a day of fasting and prayer for our nation today. Graham, the president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and of Samaritan's Purse , an international Christian relief organization, believes the church needs to call upon the name of God and ask for Him to move in this country. He stressed that our nation is facing multiple crises - from a pandemic to a turbulent presidential election, and widespread racial unrest. "I am urging followers of Jesus Christ to fast and to pray for our nation on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25. Mark it on your calendars and prepare now. I hope individuals, families, and churches will join me in asking for the Lord's help and for His will to be done in this critical election. Will you?" Graham wrote on Facebook. ...
Ride Above The Economic System
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love
God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28).
All things are functioning together for your good; the plants air,
electricity and everything in this earth. This simple, yet powerful
thought will change your life if you can only believe it. There’s no one
with a good enough idea to stop your prosperity and victory. So you
see, it’s impossible for you to be disadvantaged if you live in this
truth.
The systems of this world are programmed to fail, therefore ride
above them! Don’t play by their rules; employ Kingdom ideas and
principles in your dealings. It makes no difference how terrible the
economic situation may be, you’re still not a victim. Your prosperity is
not dependent on government policies, for the Word of God is greater
and more powerful than any government.
God has chosen you out of this world (John 15:19).
Therefore, no system of government can work to your disadvantage if you
function by God’s Word. The Bible says, “If ye be willing and obedient,
ye shall eat the good of the land” (Isaiah 1:19).
You know there’s much evil in the land, but if you hearken to the
Lord’s instructions only the good in the land will be your lot.
The God who commanded light to shine out of darkness (2 Corinthians 4:6) can cause you to prosper in famine or austere times. He did it for Isaac (Genesis 26:1-14),
and He can do the same for you. Yes, the economic, political and social
systems of today’s world may be defective; but they’ll work for your
good.
