Oh, my, V K Lee, how wonderful! Thank you so much for posting this link!
This talk eleven years ago, with its witness to Jesus as Savior, most probably could not be delivered today in a similarly elite group of academics or techies. It moved me to tears to hear Billy Graham, whom anyone not knowing of him might take as a hick from North Carolina, exercising his apparently prodigious and well-read intellect to reach a highly educated audience, to make them laugh, to inspire those who can hear the truth, and to make others squirm, or at least consider his message.
I once knew for a period of years the renowned public intellectual from New York and Aspen who started this TED talk program, Richard Saul Wurman, to whom Billy Graham refers by his first name during the talk, and whom you see briefly leading Rev. Graham onstage and offstage; I knew him when he was a young Jewish architect and city planner in Philadelphia. Billy Graham was astute in making many references to the Hebrew Bible and to King David during his TED talk, as doubtless there were many Jews in this Silicon Valley conference of techies. Still, I am amazed that Richard Wurman put this appearance before this crowd. God is great!
Joining with you all in prayer, in praise and in thanksgiving!
Amen and thank you.
Amen. AMEN!
And thank you for the pics of those with Pres. Trump -— with their heads bowed in prayer.
AMEN and AMEN.
Father, Your Spirit is leading us to seek Your precious Spirit of Truth today. You have said that this is what You have given Your children to lead us, guide us and show us things to come. Release this Truth in a greater measure among Your called ones, Sir. We also believe that as the Spirit of Truth flows to unbelievers that they will recognize the Truth of the Lordship of Jesus Christ as they hear it by the laborers that You are sending into the harvest.
We know that Truth is greater than lies; Light greater than darkness. Open our eyes, Father, in the name of Jesus! We are so very grateful for the exposure of evil. Please continue that in our Nation.
How we need You. How we want You. How we love and appreciate You.
Reminds me of Romans 8:26-27: "In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the [a]saints according to the will of God."
Your Word is a lamp unto our feet. …
Amen, John4.11
Joining in praise of our Lord and prayer for our beloved America:
* For His steadfast love
* For President Trump and Vice President Pence and their advisors: protection, wisdom, strength, courage
* For protection of the most vulnerable, especially children
* For protection of our borders and all those who put themselves in harm’s way to keep us safe
* For God’s people to seek His face and stand in the gap
In Jesus Name
Amen
Lord God, we would be remiss if we did not thank you and give you all the honor and glory for answering our prayers to keep Vice President Pence safe. We realize that attempts are frequently made to entrap, ensnare, and harm them that we are rarely aware of. In this case, we were made aware, so we bring you all the praise. You are a prayer-answering God and we thank you!
Amen!
Yes! Amen.
Love that photo of scrambled letters.
We can thankfully declare:
Amen, and thank you.
AMEN!!!
Amen
A mighty amen, dear Hiskid!
Yes, hallelujah!
Guide and protect all those working on the wall at our southern border as they work to stop the invasion of our country. We ask that you also protect our military, police, and first responders.
Amen to your Anointed, Powerful Prayer, Dear Servant of Jesus Christ.
Praying with you in Heartfelt Agreement.
Amen!!!!
