God gave me miraculous promises and he told me to put it aside and romance with him! To focus on God in the NOW. I still am enduring but I'm not letting the Lord pass me by in the now. Thank you Jesus

I get MOMENTS where I feel like this. Motivated and excited to push through. But those feeling pass very shortly and I feel like I’m being consumed with a deep desire for love. I acknowledged it, I don’t suppress it, and I still push forward. But I can’t deny the overwhelming feeling of needing love. I want and need it. I have surrendered to the Lord, he had filled my heart. But this humanly desire still remains. Because of that, I am growing weary. I am saddened by the reality.

This was a life transforming verse for me when I was a young disciple. From 2 Corinthians 1 8 We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. 9 Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.

Suffering from the diseases called Fibromyalgia and Lipoedema (and the multiple surgeries) has been a painful long suffering journey; however I've learned that whatever the circumstances I have all that I need for life and Godliness in Christ Jesus. I know He is still working all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. By His stripes I was healed and for His names sake I will not let go of His word which is exalted above His name. I know He loves me and love is healing. I'm not digging around to find "sin" in my life when He's blood is sufficient for yesterday today and forever. I love Him and live in the mystery of my circumstances which I may never understand and I've given up my "right" to understand. ❤

When I broke up with my ex whom I whole heartedly loved, I was so depressed I felt so much pain as the break was too harsh , to imagine this a person I financial supported him was there for him in all he ever needed then he cheated on me and when I decided to confront him he insulted me with so much negative energy this inflicted pain in my heart and my life as whole every day when I think about the ended relationship tears couldn't stop rolling this took me long time ..but then I decided that I will pray to God for a healing so everyday instead of crying I prayed I release my mix emotions towars my Father , after every prayer I felt relieved hopeful and comforted then one day after praying I felt great peace and love again I was able to let him go...once again God restored my joy and happiness I had that peace that surpass human understand it never left me till now. I am so blessed to have God as my father I can proudly say that. I love you father the son and the holy spirit Amen. 😍

When my dad passed away last year of cancer, through all his treatments all he kept saying was I win, if the chemo makes me better I win, if I die, I win because I get to go to heaven. So my dad won his battle over cancer because he is in heaven and I know that I will see him again one day.

For the past five years our family has been through hell on earth because of the uncontrollable tantrums of our adopted son. He’s only 14 but we are barely surviving. We understand that a lot his behaviour is simply coming out of his past trauma but it has been a rough ride for myself, wife, and daughter. At the same time we have seen some crazy financial favour from the Lord. We know He is good, but long for His shalom in our home.

I see You as good yesterday & I see you as good tomorrow so I will see You as good today." Things began to subtly change in my life. I wish I had been taught the value of worship at that time. It surely would have helped.

TRUTH BOMB!! “If you want peace that surpasses understanding, you usually have to give up your right to understand.” I'm a "make-it-happen" machine, created this way by God but highjacked by my flesh. The vision God has give me lately is for me to surrender to His goodness like "clay that is fully at rest in the Potter's hand." I have to visualize this every morning, and even throughout the day, in order to put my drivenness to figure life out to death. This means I lay down my natural insistence to know what will come of His moulding.

I like Bill Johnson. Something he said here doesn't sound right. He said if God wishes to correct him that he's always available. That sounds good. but what he's also saying in different words is God knows my address so if he wants to tell me something he can come find me. I've heard him say on different occasions that if we don't see the miracle we're looking for then we get on our faces and cry out and ask God to show us what we need to know. I believe this is the correct approach.

Stan Young This is my first time listening to Bill Johnson. What a wise man! I didn’t take it like that...”God has my address”, As a recovering perfectionist, I really identified with praying to be teachable and giving up my right to understand and embracing mystery. I have had such a long season of trying to be holy, blameless, spotless. There is a place that I felt Bill Johnson understood about allowing God to be God without demands and resting.

Acknowledging a God that sometimes brings disease has nothing to do with bringing His character into question. I'd rather serve a God that sacrifices my body temporarily for the sake of saving my soul, than One that takes care of my body while allowing my soul to perish for eternity. Job 42:11 "All his brothers and sisters and everyone who had known him before came and ate with him in his house. They comforted and consoled him over all the trouble the Lord had brought on him, and each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring." "The Lord brought on him." Not "God allowed Satan" (although He certainly did). God was the very instigator of this cosmic bet, and didn't even justify Himself to Job. God is good because He says He is and not because He conforms or not to my flawed definition of goodness. It's time for the modern Christian to contend with God's sovereignity, the same way Jews and Christians did for centuries. (By the way, this has nothing to do with the false doctrine of predestination - just to make sure we're on the same page.) At some point, trying to tell whether God sent something or allowed it is splitting hairs. The result is the same - unbelievable suffering, if we hold to a limited perspective. We anyway have to accept His paradoxical ways. It's just a diffetent paradox: a loving God that brings some calamity, versus a loving God that assists passively as his children are torn to pieces by the enemy. Or, you know...just this fallen world doing what it does best. Job 5:18 "For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal." John 9:3 is another verse where we see God allowing if not ordaining someone to be born with a crippling disease to accomplish His will. Imagine Lazarus' agony as he was breathing his last breath, feeling betrayed by his friend, unwilling to come and heal him. Imagine Job still having to see ten graves every day - no, he did not receive everything back on this side of eternity. John the Baptist - should I say anything more? There are some hard truths we either don't realize or willingly ignore about how God looks at human suffering. We should be very selective eith our "God would never", because we will have to contend with many passages in the Scriptures. Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things." One day He will wipe away every tear from our eyes, but that day is yet to come. For now, He is more than justified to use whatever means He wants, to accomplish whatever good goal. I don't question His character because of my feelings, Truth remains Truth no matter what. Theology is built upon the Word, and not upon them.
@BillJohnsonMinistries
@BillJohnsonMinistries Год назад
He is God and can do as He pleases. He owes no one an explanation. But Jesus displayed what the Father pleases. He healed all who came to Him for healing. He healed all the Father directed Him to. He put no disease, affliction, or torment on anyone. Jesus is perfect theology, revealing the Father exactly.

@@BillJohnsonMinistries With all due respect, God's Word trumps my or anyone else's opinion. Further, Christ either healed all those that came to Him, or those that the Father directed Him to. We cannot have it both ways. Regarding the first: it is unlikely, and problematic to suggest He healed all those that sought or were in need of healing. In Mark 1:36-39, people are looking for Him; His disciples tell about the crowds (as if He didn't know), and He answers that it is time to move to other villages. No one can tell for sure, but there is a good chance among those looking for Him were people that needed healing. It's not like they had an itinerary and had any idea where the Spirit would lead Him next. They had to take any chance they had. (From what I recall, this may not even an isolated incident - there are other, similar ones.) In John's account of the healing of the paralytic at Bethesda, Christ was in the middle of many suffering people, yet still appears to have healed only one of them. Verse 13 - "But the one who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place." Had Christ lingered, it would've been impossible for not even one person to recognize Him, and for the healed man to hear someone shouting Christ's Name. Therefore, it seems this was a rather quick and discreet intervention. When the Bible is silent, I go with the most likely version of how things happened. Unless I am missing somenthing big, I think it is safe to say that most of those seeking Him were healed. I am a Pentecostal that wouldn't be here to write all these had God not pulled him a ridiculous amount of times from the very edge of the grave. I have medical proof for miracles reluctantly certified by stunned doctors. (Nothing like God making a big-time atheist sign some papers.) Thess words don't come from some cessationist theology, but from someone trying to consider the Word in Its entirety. I don't need to "defend" God's character, regardless of what He does. His dealings with me have been paradoxical, many times...and still are. He won't do anything that goes against His character, even when His math seems so different from mine. I will take both everyday life and the Word as they are, even when it seems inconvenient.

The prophetic office is not about predicting events (that's a fortune teller). Whilst the prophetic may include predictive elements at times the prophetic is to inspire and encourage the Body by giving it a vision of what the heart and mind of God is in a given season for a person, body, nation etc. The prophetic also brings course correction and rebuke should the church start to go astray.. Also prophecy is in part. No one person has it all we need the body to see more clearly even then its still in part. This may explain why none of the 12 Apostles seemed to "predict" the persecution in Acts which led to the dispersion of the early church

Praise God in advance is the answer. Even when things go downhill to the point it becomes a living hell. You'll never get breakthrough without warfare and the only proper ways to beat warfare is patience, praise and worship.

At 3:36, Stay right there, don't venture futher. One of the hardest issues I have had to deal with was God showing me things to come and even offering up my own life could not change the matter. In His sovereignty God allows things we can not understand from this side of heaven but later to be revealed in eternity. Of this I am certain, God always does the right and good perfect thing at HIS perfect time!
