“I’ve been praying that we might have a spiritual awakening”
World-renowned Evangelist Billy Graham turns 99 years old today. The famous Bible teacher has now entered his 100th year on the planet – that is pretty astonishing. Graham has preached to millions across a ministry career that spans longer than most of our lifetimes.
“My father Billy Graham turns 99 years old today!” says Billy’s son, Franklin in a new video. “That means he’s entering his 100th year—that’s pretty amazing. Here are some reflections from a few people who know him— Michael W. Smith, Kathie Lee Gifford, Larry King, Tony Evans, Greta Van Susteren, Ricky Skaggs, and more—also there are a few words from my father about God’s plan for our lives.”
“I’ve been praying that we might have a spiritual awakening,” Billy says in the video. “But that only comes as individuals surrender their lives afresh and anew to Christ.”
“We are to live a life in which we love one another, we help one another, we live according to what Jesus lived. The Holy Spirit is the one that helps us live that new lifestyle.”
“Go to your knees, and pray until you and God have become intimate friends.”
