BILL JOHNSON

BILL JOHNSON

Johnson was born in Minnesota in 1951 and became a Christian as a young child. Soon after, Johnson read seven books on prayer, which significantly affected his perspective and subsequent ministry.

Johnson's father, Melvin Earl Johnson (1929-2004) was the senior pastor at Bethel Church in Redding from 1968-1982 and subsequently became Executive Officer of the Northern California/Nevada District Council of the Assemblies of God. Earl Johnson had four children, all of whom are in full-time ministry.

Bill Johnson and his wife have three children: Eric, Brian and Leah.

Bill Johnson Sermon - Why You Need to Let Go of Regret, Bitterness, and Jealousy. Bill Johnson talks about the importance of letting go of regret, bitterness, and jealousy. Christ died for our freedom, but holding onto regret, bitterness, and jealousy keeps us married to the past. How do you celebrate another person’s breakthrough when it is the very thing you’ve been contending for yourself? Bitterness and jealousy can seem reasonable, but we are called to reason from a Heavenly perspective. The enemy fears our freedom, because he knows the power of the sons and daughters of God walking in freedom and unity as the body of Christ. We can only experience true freedom when we let go of our past.

Bill Johnson Sermon - The Reason for the Greatest Story Ever Told. Bill Johnson reflects on the greatest story ever told (the Christmas story), and the reason for Jesus coming to earth. The timeless law of sowing and reaping had humanity sentenced to eternal punishment of sin, but Jesus came to break that cycle. He reconciled us to Himself, and has now given us the ministry of reconciliation. His purpose for coming is fulfilled in you today.

Watch Bill Johnson - How to Reign in Life. Bill Johnson talks about how to reign in life in session 3 of The Pursuit of Wisdom devotional series. Reigning in life is not about ruling over people, but about serving others well to bring out the best in them. Reigning in life is about rising above your situations, rather than being controlled and victimized by them. Someone who reigns in life has tapped into the hope we have in Christ and strengthens and encourages others. The one who has the most hope has the most influence. It is divine wisdom that enables us to reign in life.

Watch Bill Johnson Sermon - The People God Chooses to Fulfill His Plans. Bill Johnson talks about the people God chooses to fulfill His plans in the earth. While we look at the most qualified to achieve a purpose, God often chooses the least qualified. Teaching from Isaiah 61, Bill Johnson shares God’s strategy for restoration and reformation in the earth. It’s God’s plan to take the most broken and have them be the ones to build His Kingdom. Our willingness to say yes to God and our dependency on Him is what qualifies us.

Watch Bill Johnson Sermon - 3 Keys for Your Breakthrough: Hope, Celebration, Beauty. Bill Johnson teaches on 3 keys for breakthrough: hope, celebration, and beauty. These three ‘ingredients’ are keys for thriving in life, and God’s way of sustaining you as you trust Him for the breakthrough you are contending for. These three elements in your life also reveal God’s Kingdom and awaken the hearts of those around you to the knowledge of the goodness of God. Hope, celebration, and beauty are close to God’s heart, and keys in your breakthrough.

Watch Bill Johnson - You are Designed to Hear God’s Voice. Bill Johnson teaches on our design to hear God’s voice in Session 2 of The Pursuit of Wisdom devotional series. It's in our nature to hear the voice of God. God is speaking to us in so many different ways, but we often limit our ability to hear Him by speaking over ourselves that it’s difficult or impossible to hear Him. What Solomon asked God for in 1 Kings 3 was an “understanding heart”, which actually means a “hearing heart”. The prayer for wisdom is a prayer to hear the voice of God.

Watch Bill Johnson Sermon - Thanksgiving 2023: A Lifestyle of Gratitude. Bill Johnson teaches on the importance of developing a lifestyle of gratitude in this special Thanksgiving compilation. More than a once a year reflection, incorporating thanksgiving and gratitude into our daily lives is key in stewarding our mental and emotional health, and empowering our prayer life. Thanksgiving enables us to take what the enemy meant for evil and transfer it into to the hands of God, knowing that He is causing all things to work together for our good.

Watch Bill Johnson Sermon - Thankfulness: A Daily Habit to Turn Your Situations Around. Bill Johnson teaches on thankfulness as a daily habit that can turn our difficult situations around. Gratitude is a simple yet powerful tool that takes what the enemy meant for evil, and puts into God’s hand, who is using and working all things together for our good. Scripture instructs us to give thanks in everything. Choosing to give thanks in everything allows you to bypass the limitations of your own emotions and reconnect with God’s heart and hope for your life. While we don’t give thanks for evil, we can give thanks IN everything when we see and trust that God is working all things together for our good.
