I’m sure you’ve heard of Billy Graham. I just want to share
something that I pray gives you hope, encouragement and peace where maybe
you’re not feeling all of those things today.
Back in 1949, Billy Graham was traveling the country,
holding meetings in large auditoriums. He was having success, but he wasn't nationally
known at the time.
That summer, he conducted a meeting in Los Angeles in a big
tent. A gentleman showed up by the name of William Randolph Hearst. Mr. Hearst
owned newspapers all across the country. He was so touched that night that he
sent a message to all of his publishers to write favorable articles about Billy
Graham.
The next week, the whole country was talking about this
young minister. He came to national prominence practically overnight because of
the influence of one man. Billy Graham didn’t ask for it. He didn’t act
differently because he knew the man would be there. He was just doing what God
led him to do, and God blessed it.
It could have taken Billy Graham his whole lifetime to gain
that kind of respect and credibility, but God used ONE man to show him favor
and it opened doors that took Billy Graham to a new level. And the good news is
that God has set you up the same way.
He has divine connections lined up for you that will open
doors that you couldn’t open on your own. People who will show you favor even
though you didn't ask. They will use their influence to make you look good.
They're ordained by God to accelerate His plan for your life.
Friend, rest assured that the right people are already in
your future. It's just a matter of time before they show up. If you will focus
on God and commit to being the best you know how to be you will experience this
type of accelerated, unsolicited favor. When you do everything you can do, God
will show up to do the parts that you can’t.
