Be still, and know that I am God. Psalm 46.10 (NIV Life Application Study Bible)
Jesus says: As you live your life with Me, there will be times to be busy and times to be still. I know you have many things to do. But there are times when I want you to stop everything and be still. Rest in My Presence. Listen to Me, and let Me prepare you for the day. Sometimes when you try to be still, fears and worries creep into your mind. Then you start planning ways to avoid the things that scare you. Soon, your thoughts are far away from Me. When you feel that happening, bring your thoughts back to Me. Stop your planning.
Jesus Concludes: Remember that I am always with you, so there is no reason to worry or fear. Be still, and let Me be your God.
Psalm 46:10; Romans 8:1 Study Notes
Footnotes Psalms 46:8-11 War and destruction are inevitable, but so is God’s final victory. At that time, all will stand quietly before the Lord Almighty. How proper, then, for us to be still now, reverently honoring him and his power and majesty. Take time each day to be still and to exalt God.
Passage Romans 8:1 1Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus
Footnotes Romans 8:1 “Not guilty; let this person go free.” What would those words mean to you if you were on death row? In reality the whole human race is on death row, justly condemned for repeatedly breakings God’s holy law. Without Jesus, we would have not hope at all. But thank God! He had declared us not guilty and has offered us freedom from sin and supernatural power to do his will.
THE WORLD…we see history

The Greatest Period of Christian Evangelization
Since Saint Paul Set Out on Foot
The late Ruth Graham once said that her husband “wanted to please God more than any man I’d ever met.” Hundreds of thousands of others who have been in the presence of Billy Graham or heard him in radio and television broadcasts would agree with her assessment. Graham is possessed of a powerful charisma and a tangible sincerity. It is clear he believes profoundly in the message he conveys. Born into the Presbyterian faith in North Carolina, as a young man Graham was told by Bob Jones Sr., founder of the Christian university that bears his name, “You have a voice that pulls. God can use that voice of yours. He can use it mightily.” Graham began preaching while still in college, began his radio ministry in 1944, and found his calling as an evangelist when hired to be the traveling preacher for Youth for Christ International. In the Autumn of 1949, he had a breakthrough with an eight-week series of revival meetings in Los Angeles.
The WORD…we see Jesus, His Story!
It could be said that in the subsequent six decades he became what President George H.W. Bush once called him: America’s pastor. Professor Harold Bloom of Yale University, literary critic and author of The American Religion, among other books, wrote in Time magazine in 2000 that “Graham has ministered to a particular American need: the public testimony of faith. He is the recognized leader of what continues to call itself American evangelical Protestantism, and his life and activities have sustained the self-respect of that vast entity. If there is an indigenous American religion—and I think there is, quite distinct from European Protestantism—then Graham remains its prime emblem.” Graham does so in an era that includes such powerful evangelical figures as Rick Warren and Pat Robertson, and he does so around the globe. Billy Graham helped make the second half of the 20th century the greatest period of Christian evangelization since Saint Paul set out on foot.
