Breaking the Bread of My Soul - Bill Johnson (Full Sermon) | Bethel Church
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 июл 2022
- What does it look like to mourn with hope? After a long battle with cancer, Beni Johnson, Bill Johnson's wife, went to be with Jesus on July 13, 2022. She is now fully alive and free.
Just a few days following Beni's passing, Bill Johnson shares this honest message on dealing with pain and loss, and the importance of grieving with hope. In times of grief, though our mind wants answers to many questions, what we really need is to be close to the Person of Jesus who comforts, loves us so much, and understands all things.

Bill has set the standard. No compromise. No idols. Fully devoted to Jesus.
Jimmy!
Indeed amen
Yep
That's the truth. I've never been to Bethel, but I've watched through recent years. The fruit of Pastor Bill Johnson's life is what speaks loudly of who he is and Who's he is.
The proof is on the fruit. What an amazing example of, like you said, full devotion to Jesus. 🙌🏻 Praise God.
Happy anniversary to my I I
I think that this will go down as one of the most powerful sermons in history.
I agree and have listened to it twice already and want to do it each day until that same response and mindset is automatic for me🙌
Yes! Yes! ❤️
That is the increase from the seed he talked about!
I agree I have listened to it over and over again. My mom just passed away Tuesday at 4:15. I need this message.
@@lulubelle8815 very timely for you and so sorry for your loss and remember His perfect peace will surround you as you fix your mind on Christ🙏
It amazes me that in the middle of his great loss, his grip on the Lord is so strong that he can encourage the rest of us to also reach for Jesus in times of loss. One of the most anointed messages I've heard him preach. May God bless Him and all of Bethel with the greatest revelations of our Lord's love and comfort in Jesus' name.
So true a very anointed message of Hope!!!
Praying for the whole church and family!!!
Agree. One of the most anointed messages I’ve ever heard.
😢
Papa Bill is d real deal. The Spirit is true strength indeed
Resurrection Life on the other side of the cross.
I lost my wife of 28 years 14 months ago to cancer after a 13 mo fight. Its a mystery why we didn't see the healing, but I know she is supremely blessed in his presence right now, and I know that my children and I will see Him work good out of it for us. She is not cold, still, and done like her old physical tent, but right this second she is more ALIVE than any of us have ever been on this earth, more intelligent, more full of grace and love, more full of joy, no hindrances, no ambiguity. This is what Beni and Leslie are experiencing right now - more alive and at peace than we are. We who are in Christ will go to them and enjoy eternal friendship that is even better than the highest of marriages here on earth. Thank you Jesus for all that you have in store for us THEN, but also for the heaven we have yet to bring to earth on this side.
What a lovely message of encouragement, god bless you. So many of us have experienced grief and not known how to express it, so much love in pastors message and in his congregation, and your message too. It is lovely and appreciated, thank you. I love the lord too.xx
Eternal Friendship…I love that. God Bless you Scott.
I am really sorry to hear that. Losing my single mother who was my all in all at a young age was undescribable but I love the way God supernaturally wrapped me in his arms from then till now...as years go by the pain is more bearable. I pray for you and your children. May God wrap you in his arms tightly.
So well put 😭❤️❤️👏

After watching "Breaking the Bread of My Soul" twice, I felt strongly lead to get this into the hands of my 2 Christian friends in prison. They can't receive video or audio files so I had to edit the RUclips auto-transcript and email it to them through JPay. Just heard back from both of them and it's had miraculous effect! It has been circulating throughout the pod, changing hearts, starting conversations, glorifying God. Thank you Jesus! Thank you Bill!
Thank you Scott Jacobson....you make heaven rejoice over and over 🙏
"...answers won't fix the problem, presence will". Wow, wow! This is true for most every season of life. Thank you!
That is a powerful statement by Holy Spirit!
I just love listening to this man! He is a real sweetheart and great example for the love of Jesus. 🎉❤🎉
Pastor Bill, our 16 year old daughter passed away the same day as Beni. This sermon came right on time in the middle of our grief. We needed to hear this, Beni’s passing led to this sermon and we know that God is already using her life to bless ours. Thank you for getting on that stage, even though it was hard. Thank you for giving us hope 🙏
I"m so sorry for your loss. wow
My dad was murdered in 2015 and lingered in ICU for 13days before he went to heaven and I will never forget a couple of days in my completely deaf mother who loves the Lord with all her heart came into the ICU waiting room and loudly announced that God had clearly said to her in the night that either He was still God or He wasn't it was my choice. Wow my choice seemingly easy but not. In that moment I chose to forgive and thank God for still being my God through my dad's murder and the ongoing open investigation. I chose God it really is a choice like forgiveness it's a choice 💗
How are you doing today, I hope you're having a wonderful day today 🌹?
I am living in Austria and I know Bill only from media like RUclips or his books. When I heard about his loss, I broke in tears ... I can't explain that but I love this guy as he is part of my own family. Bill, your life, messages, books and revelations have changed my life. Without you I won't be there where I am now.
This message was so so so powerful and so humble. I love you Bill - be blessed my friend ❤️.
》》Austria for Jesus《《
thank you so much
REMARKABLE. What an EXTREME price Bill and Beni must have paid for him to be able to deliver a message like this. ❤️ ❤️
Man your decieved. What price, not having to work physical labor like everyone else, making a million dollars just to stand there and preach a bunch of powerless false teachings on Sunday, write books and sit back and do nothing while crowds of people cheer them on and call them amazing practically worshipping them. He hasn't paid any price at all. He's milked people and there desperation for the father to live like a king in palace. He's the utter opposite of the gospel. And his followers so utterly decieved they are blinder than blind and cannot see what's right in front of them.
God bless this man. I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and I have 2 young kids who need their mommy.
Choose life.
Consider those that have fully recovered.
Do not give up hope.
DO EVERY NUTRIONAL thing you can.
Do not forget faith.
Read & listen to healing Scriptures,.

“The Communion Revival” Yes 🙌 it’s coming I believe it will very soon! Pastor my husband who’s not Christian dreamt of JESUS today !!! Jesus told him to get up because he has work to do!!!! My husband came to me astonished by that and he was describing me the face of JESUS in that dream
I’ve been praying so hard for the Lord to draw my husband and my two boys towards JESUS so they can open their heart and invite Him !!! I said to the Lord that I believe that the Only way for my husband to become Christian is for JESUS to speak with him in his dreams and it’s happening !!!! it just started today !!! Pastor my husband is Muslim and I’m sure he’ll come to JESUS for sure I just hope I’ll be around to witness it !!! “The communion revival” is happening!!!! We have to press on our prayers for that 👉💪🙏 Beni is living ✨✨✨
Oh so good Corine! I am praying now for these three to have a revelation of the man dressed in white.
Thankyou for sharing and increasing my faith in His Great Glory to all who are called for His purpose! May you and your household be blessed beyond your wildest imagination!
@@kennysacht7946 Now that after 25 years of marriage and two beautiful sons (24 & 19) and a lovable husband I’m quite sure that God had put me in that position for a reason. I married this man because he had ethics and close to the love of God and fear of God humble and has wisdom more than I have sometimes!!! but in the same time doesn’t have the boldness that I have as a Christian with the Love of JESUS. He is very liberal but yet very much attached to his traditions and defending it saying stuff that are sooo much different than the freedom and confidence JESUS had granted us. I wish he could feel it experience it but he won’t take the step to jump in the waters! as he’s attached to “what would people say…or what will his family think…or saying stuff like God has prophets not son!!!”
Sometimes we argue about my beliefs but I know it’s not him arguing it is the devil trying to overturn my family ups side down and trying to create doubt in my thoughts or frustration because I’m different so I do my best and I resist….I pray I take a knee and I pray again and again… The wholly spirit lead me to read John 17:20-26 where JESUS prayed for us. Alllll of us and when I read “Father they are your gift to me….” Then I realized that the Lord doesn’t want me to leave them in this part of the world He wants me to take them to the other part !!!! He wants me to bring them to Him !!! He’s using my knowledge to speak up the word !! The Lord is using that challenge to make me grow in Him. Every time I get closer and understand more the word i get a fight at home or a comment about what I’m reading or listening to ect …. It’s too easy to let go but if the Lord is granting me access to the difficult it is because I’m working on becoming up to the level 💪 and yes they will become allll Christians and I believe since my husband is the most stubborn and attached to his ethics I believe that he’ll see JESUS in a dream and where JESUS will do the miracle and ask him to follow Him and shine ✨
YOU SEE ! Yesterday he had his first dream with JESUS!!!
Thank you Lord 🙏
💜💜🙏🏼🕊🙏🏼💜💜
This testimony is so so so encouraging!!!!!!!
This man has the gentleness/ revelation of a man of God for His people.
Yesterday my closest uncle's funeral, who died for cancer. 💔 I know i cannot talk to my brother Bill, but Bill, thank you so much for your faith, for this message and for all that you are doing for, in and with Jesus. I am terribly sorry for Beni.... i still cry everyday for my uncle, i just cant imagine, truly, what it is at your place.............. but we know they are not dead, they are still alive. More than ever before. A big hug from Italy, full of comfort, in Jesus, our Lord and friend. Love you so much. We keep staying united to Jesus as never before.
We are in a war, and in warfare some are lost in the battle for a multitude of reasons. Some of greatest number of casualties in warfare are due to disease. Some are due to the enemy, some are self-inflicted, some are taken prisoner, some are grievously wounded, some are just in the wrong place at the wrong time. But those who are alive and well must press on not forgetting the loss, but in honor of the loss to continue the battle. This why many wounded soldiers are so adamant to return to the fight. Mourning has its own healing balm; it's called Love that's greater than loss.
Bill, having lost my late wife BJ to a 4 year battle with liver failure in 2010, having lost my first wife to a very much unwanted and painful divorce in 1992, having list my only two children to miscarriage in 2012 and 2013, and having list my mom to colon and liver cancer in 2003, and having seen God miraculous work time and time again to lead me faithfully through those valleys of the shadow of death, I am saddened for you, yet I know beyond doubt the Lord will comfort you in similar fashion to how He has comforted me! God bless you my brother!!!
God bless you. Encouraged by ypur testimony
God comfort you sir.
Bill, you have served God so faithfully and He will surely see you through and he will show you his faithfulness. A wound for one is a wound for all. Trust me, we feel your pain and we are with you in this and we will continue to pray for you and family. We love you Bill.
Love you Son

Came here from recommendation through my life coach. My mothers passing date is July 24th 2020. Since then I’ve found depression which led to the addiction of alcohol. As a result my fiancé and best friend left me and I feel more lost than ever even after 8 months. Trying my hardest to be taken into the hands of God and believe everything will be okay especially after feeling this alone. Please pray for me
ok
@@BillJohnsonMinistries ok
Thank You Lord for working tru painful circumstances..my son went home to Jesus at age 29...years later i was able to comfort many who lost their children..we trust n hope in God alone
My wife asked me this morning how Bill’s wife is doing, and I said I wasn’t sure then this afternoon I learned of the news. Our hearts go out to the entire Johnson family. I pray that that Father God and our precious Lord embraces Bill with their merciful love and showers him with Their peace blessings my brother in the Lord
HE has & embraced him in His great Joy & awesome Love!
We have been praying over Pastor Bill for this message. That there would be strength and wisdom for the words. This is leading from the frontline and showing Christians what it should look like ,even in a time of mourning, that we have hope.

What an incredible love illustrated message!
Dear Lord, I’m feeling hopeless and I can’t see a light at the end of my dark tunnel. Please help me. Show me the path back to hope. Walk with me so I don’t feel so alone. Lead me. You are my God and I know you can deliver me. I ask this in the name of your son, Jesus. Amen
Yes Lord be with us Lord!
Yes Lord and how we all need this prayer and humble heart! As David said “hear my cry O Lord attend unto my prayer. When my heart is overwhelmed lead me to the Rock that is higher than I”
Allow Him to, yes He gives you ALL OF HIM, HIS LOVE, JOY, PEACE, HIS ALL! Surrender your all to HIM & take Communion with Him! HE IS HOPE, FAITH, LOVE & HE LOVES YOU SO VERY MUCH! Read Psalm 23 & 105:1-5 & Mark 11:22-26. BLESS YOU IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME!
There are times we get to empathize with others going through the darkness of soul you’re experiencing, know that you are not alone, others ache alongside you, we feel your ache, feel our intercession as we lift you and others up.
We love the Johnsons and the Bethel families. We are so honored to be a part of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as one bride
I just lost my little brother to overdose. My heart feels like it has a large gaping hole. I don’t know how to process this valley, this pain is so foreign. The enemy is at work trying his hardest to detour my heart. So thank you for this message of hope. I am clinging to the fringes of HIS robe, so He can use my pain for His glory. Thank you Jesus.
I'm so sorry for your loss. It's unimaginable. But He knows. Much GRACE and hope to you.
"My friendship with God can only go where his Lordship as already been'
We love you very much Bill. We continue to pray for the journey ahead. We thank God so much for you. You are unique. You have shown me Jesus, probably more than any other person (& there are many who have invested in my life & legacy). The effectiveness of this message shared in your greatest brokenness, is possibly more than all your previous ones put together. You are a great Champion. Sending love & prayers from Sri Lanka
If there was ever a perfect example of the coupling of our humanity walking out pain in the presence of Jesus, this is it. Thank you, Pastor Bill. 🙏 🙌❤️
This life can be rough. I just lost my mom and it’s definitely difficult to watch someone suffer and die. I’m sorry for your loss, Bill. May The God of all comfort continue to do his good work in you.
I was with my sister when she died,I was lifted into the cloud of witnesses.What a grace and Glory.Thank you Jesus for this beautiful man and his ever eternal wife. 🙏❤️
While I'm sorry for your loss, thank you for being an example or at the least attempting to be an example of how to handle loss but still maintaining your focus. Thank you.
I have recently and still am journeying the journey that you are now experiencing! God is with and in you ! Blessings !
I dont want my why to ever take me away from Him. 😭
Separation hurts. But thank God for the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
This teaching so ministered to me, as of. last year October 3 rd..my husband went home to Jesus.Thankyou so much.Praying for God's love, strength and comfort and peace that surpasses all understanding in Jesus Name Amen
After my husband passed I couldn’t do much of anything. I was numb and distant from life… I admire you for teaching… 🙏🏼
God bless you Bill, you have given your heart to all of us at this painful time, you broke your jar of ointment on me, i am so grateful for your message, love is priceless. You have melted my hard heart. Much love to you, your family, and your dear church and not forgetting the body of christ world wide, who grieve with you.xx
Thank you so much Pastor Bill, this message that you have shared in your time of mourning, has. Strengthened me so much to be able to walk with our son through a vert diffucult and confusing time in his life. You reverberated to me ehat Holy Spirit spoke specifucally to me about just last week, it were as if you and l were privvy to a deep healing word from the Father that sustains. God bless you and your family
Amen 🙏🏼 Be comforted Our father in Jesus mighty name amen.
We ache together ..... and rejoice in the wonderous hope Christ has given.
One of his best!!
Honest, vulnerable, real.
May God continue to speak through you, Bill. 🙏🙏🙏
I’ve been a follower of Jesus since I was 4 years old. My timeline here has been an interesting journey. I lost my husband of 34 years last year. Suddenly without warning. In 2020 my son was going through anxiety with the lockdown of his school. His friend that would just show up and drive him around committed suicide on the day his dad died. Our journey together just got painful. Life cannot be worked out here without Jesus who brought Love down from Heaven. He was willing. Pastor Johnson thank you. I still struggle every day in this new part of my relay. May you be intertwined with love and comfort in yours. ❤️
I'm praying for you all. God does work it for good! Love to you
The offering that pours out of a broken heart has the sweetest fragrance, that fragrance is in the incense burner before the altar in heaven. Your worship in your loss is precious to the Lord. I’ve been there many times and I know He loves the prayers and worship that come from this time. Thank you for sharing!
I understand your sorrow. When my oldest daughter died in 2018 I struggled to stay in peace, to praise God as a healer, to accept that ALL things work together for good, to maintain my trust but God covered me and though I never lost my faith, at time it was hard for me to pray and praise. As I continued in praise and worship even when I wasn’t “feeling” it God gave me peace that keeps me focused on Him.
I lost my 21 year old daughter in November. Because of your teaching i gave my sacrifice of praise and trust in his goodness without questioning him. And there was covering of presence joy i did not know how to navigate. But everything you covered here lets me know i was in gods perfect will. Im sorry for your loss thank you bill
I’m sorry for the loss of your daughter. God has us in the next phase of eternity.
May the Good Lord Himself comfort you in your time of mourning.
BLESS YOU WITH HIS CONTINUED LOVE & JOY!
Hearts are with your family, needed this sermon, my 16 year old left for Heaven same day your wife did.
Brings me comfort knowing Tori is with Jesus and your wife.
God Bless you Bill
I'm so sorry
I am with you heart family Johnson. My mother died of cancer when I was nineteen. I didn't know God then, we just all carried on, some of us bitter. I am so glad to know where Benni is and that you comfort as always Bill by pointing at the Comforter God is. May you feel His love for you and your wonderful family so intense now. Love and blessings from the Netherlands, Renessa Punt love you all dearly
I lost my husband 6 years ago as of this 9/9/16 to heart attack. We were married 38 years and I was comforted knowing he was ready to stand before God. I miss him and continue to put my trust in God to provide everything I need in my singleness walk.
Oh my goodness….I love you Bill and continue to pray for you….I’ve lost two spouses and the reason I can praise and love Jesus is because of the way He loves me. Carries me. And like you, many rallied around me and my daughters! The trinity … no words to explain!
Just yesterday in prayer, God started clarifying the message of Jesus washing the disciples’ feet. He told them to realize what he had done for them & to do this for each other with a servant’s heart.
We, as the Body of Christ, are to wash/help prepare others to commune with Jesus, to learn of Him & be filled with His holy presence-to partake of His life. The last part where Bill says we are going into a time of worldwide revival of Communing-resonated so deeply & in sync with that word about serving to prepare others for His presence. We are that broken bread & blood-His body-to feed His sheep… to usher His children into ABIDING in Him/communing with Jesus. That’s our calling in this pivotal moment in history. ♥️🕊
Powerful and life changing as I mourn the recent loss of my oldest brother and then my son. Both loved our Lord and our Lord loved them. ❤️🙏❤️
God bless this courageous obedient man of God. May God console him and all who mourn with him.

How are you doing today, I hope you're having a wonderful day today 🌹?
It has been recently touching me on the deepest value of my valley of Soulja’s spirit to only have one wish to give all trust to him and honer 🌿🕊👑🙌🌿🙏👑! To glorify him!! In all grieving process I am still about loss of my husband, the lord has been always in all suffering times and tears 😭😭only that mercifully with treatment of comforting in all with his spirit.👏👏👏👏👏👑
This message touched me deeply; my husband went to glory 25 years ago and a daughter 10 years ago; this message although 25 years latter has filled an empty spot.....Thank you Lord..
,
hugging you so tight Jean 🤗
Thanks be to God who gives us the Victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Praise the Lord for your message and for posting it on line. How blessed we are to hear such a wonderful word from the Lord.
My husband of 51 years moved to heaven recently. We were filled with plans and expectations for here.
Our Lord is renewing me daily and spoke to my heart so encouraging through this message. Thank you💕
thanks
“Beloved brothers and sisters, we want you to be quite certain about the truth concerning those who have passed away, so that you won’t be overwhelmed with grief like many others who have no hope.”

Powerful message. Thank you pastor Bill. I lost my sister 45 years old in March. She left us with x4 kids . This message is really helping me. For us to live is Christ but for them it is gain. We praise God for the life of your wife. God strenthen and continue to strenghten and comfort you and your family during this difficult time.
God Bless you Bill with peace that surpasses all understanding. You are so right, there is no greater gift that we can give Jesus', than to trust Him through our deepest loss. Believing His Word is True and knowing when our beloved took their last breath here on earth the breathed their first breath in Heaven. I knowing one day we will be reunited with all our loved ones who died in Christ. I love you Bill you have been such a Blessing to me. I am praying for you and your family.
Hello beautiful …I’m actually new here following pastor Allen of outreach church and so far he has preached the word of God just as it is and he has strengthened my faith with his preachings…I am happy to be exposed to his messages about God and my spirit wants me to get to know you perhaps we could be sharing the words of God together.....I am catholic and I will want to worship God the rightful way…..I’m from Lima Peru and where do you come from?
This message has invaded my heart. I found myself going back to it as I just unexpectedly lost my brother. I quoted some of it at his funeral. It is so so powerful.
Brother sending so much love and praying Jesus holds your heart in his hands and surrounds you with spirit every day.
No words 😶 such courage! Lord bless this beautiful brother and his broken heart as you heal him in his loss, be so close to him and his family and church. Even in his grief he is so considerate of his congregation … such an amazing leader. Facing the the vulnerability head on, with his usual wit to lessen the blow for his church family as they see him in such pain 😢I just love him x
1 Thess 4 v 16 - The night my grandad passed away … I was beside myself with concern that I had witnessed but had not led him to Jesus before he passed. I was so sad, just going to bed wondering where he was .. I was talking to Jesus saying sorry etc etc etc.. the a profound thing happened I had a scripture reference pop into my mind as it was 1 Thess 4 v 16. I had no idea what that scripture was so I got my Bible as I was curious “16 for the lord himself will descend from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of god, and the dead in christ will be the first to rise.”
Only a loving Heavenly Father can do that when the enemy tries to condemn in a time of grief… all the ‘what if’s’ we gone in a moment!
Perfectly stated!
His heart is so open and full of Him that I understand the Joy in the midst as I have experienced it several times in those similar circumstances! GLORY!
Bill, oh we bless God for you. More people than you know are watching you and glorifying God for the way he is making you manifest as a living expression of God. There are believers here is the Caribbean standing with you and the Bethel Family in prayer. We are journeying with you all.
Agreeing with you. From the Caribbean also. God bless Bill and Bethel.
I met Bill Johnston online during the COVID lock down and I really thank God for his messages and that The Lord Almighty God has used him powerfully to explain and teach us so much. During this time, we were all praying for his beloved wife Beni and carrying her in spirit. Her passing has become personal to us, even as as we are assured that she is indeed in Heaven. We are touched and pained by your loss. May you and your family and friends know the Special Comfort of the Holy Spirit during this painful time. May the Rod and Staff of the Mighty Shepherd be evident and present to you all. You are in our prayers 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
My dear brother Bill, I send you my heartfelt sympathy and love. Unless someone has gone through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, they will miss the reality of what you have shared. Thank you for your insight on the search of the soul that is resting in Jesus. May His grace and peace surround you and your family. Your brother in Christ. Austin Sullivan.
Wow. What an amazing message. I know this grief. My wife passed into eternity 11 years ago from cancer at the age of 44. I wrote her eulogy but there was no way I was going to deliver it at her funeral because I couldn't have gotten through it without breaking down - I had one of the elders read it. Since that time I have had dreams where I've seen her in the great cloud of witnesses, rejoicing, beaming and radiant with the presence of God. This has been a great comfort.
I'm so sorry
A remarkable and profound message from someone who is walking the walk he’s talking about.
I so desire to have the trust in God that Bill exhibits; even in his pain. There is a supreme grace all over this sharing from his heart; and God's.
My 40 year old daughter. My only child has HPV. We need prayer please and thank you. Blessings to All, and Thanks.
This is the best message I have ever heard from you Bill.
Someday when I meet you in heaven I hug you and personally say THANK YOU!
I am truly sorry for your pain at this time and pray for your comfort.
All will be well
During the most difficult situations all we can do is to bear our souls, pain, and heartbreak to the Lord. He takes our reality, our brokenness and he brings comfort in the midst of the pain. It takes time. We forget that in this life we will experience tribulation and we will all die one day. Lord please comfort Bill and everyone who is hurting today.♥️✝️
Jesus bless and comfort Bill!
My brother Steve was here for this service, and 3 days later his wife Sherie passed away.
She is probably dancing now with the Lord! (She was quadriplegic, so now she is free.)
The fact the Pastor bill spoke says a lot about his faith in the lord!! Mighty man of God
Weeping may tarry all thru the night but YOUR JOY COMES IN THE MORNING (Mourning)))).... Father GOD, fill the void in their lives with YOUR AWESOME PRESENCE and that the PEACE that Beni is NOW EXPERIENCING be experienced in their very souls, spirits and bodies....
JESUS, WE GIVE YOU ABSOLUTE PRAISE and THANKS for YOUR SACRIFICE FOR US and WE ARE FOREVER GRATEFUL..... AMEN...... I know that YOU will direct Pastor Bill and his family in the way they should go//// WE LOVE YOU!!!!
Amen what a beautiful message and God bless his family, friends, and church family during this very difficult time. I am so very sorry for your the loss of your wife ,🙏
I’m gonna trust Him no matter what 🔥🔥🔥
It is around the one year anniversary since my mom’s death and graduation to God’s arms in heaven. I’ve struggled so much in this past year, questioned and cried late into the night, feeling the loss of time together through this season of life raising children.
She is a wonderful mom, loving grandma and I miss her physical presence.
But I must rejoice. I’ve been encouraged to not constantly seek the need or right to understand fully, just receive His peace.
Return my trust to a childlike state.
His peace 🕊 upon you
You did phenomenal as usual, bill. My husband and I love you. We’re all praying for you. You keep showing up and being brave to mourn, to preach, to keep strong faith. Amen.
I had a vision of Benni Johnson cheering us on as the church saying Go, Go, Go, keep Going! She was jumping up and down, excited, like we were a glorious winning team.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I was so saddened to here of Beni's departure, but though we ache over her loss here, she has been raised up in resurrection life. Some day we will all be there together again so we can rejoice in this.
Pearls of great price in this message! Celebrating a life well lived. We continue to run the race and not look back! 🙌🏼💜🎉
Thank you, Bill, for having the courage to stand and speak comforting truth in this time. ❤️
thanks
I‘ve listened to this message the third time around now. Such profound truth.
Blessings on the Johnson family and God’s heavenly Shalom!
The opportunity to worship God in loss, the revelation of this is so true and therefore precious. We can only do this while we live in our earthly bodies. Thankyou Bill for this revelation
Thank you Bill for pouring out your heart and teaching us what Biblical faith looks like even in toughest of times. From Botswana
I cannot stop thinking about the awesomeness of him preaching this. ❤ So much love for Pastor Bill as a leader in this life and as one who will have huge authority in eternity. I remember once “hearing” that if he ever makes a mistake, God covers him. This beautiful message of truth, seeking the full reward for Jesus in a time of pain, reminds me of why I would “hear” that. So grateful for this message and the life of faith it came from. Also grateful for the life of his beloved wife Beni. It takes a powerful Christian woman of faith to walk with a man of faith who will seek to give God what He is due in anything. 😊🔥❤️
thanks so much
thankyou , from your loss you have helped countless people like myself who were and are very heartbroken, first day i actually smiled .
I love the sermon. Its so close to home, having to lose a spouse to cancer and feeling the pain but im grateful i've heard it. Thank you mom for sending me this(Jill Mitchell)
It was powerful, raw, authentic and brave. It left a mark on me watching Bill Johnson bare his soul this past Sunday. Praying for him and his entire family
Every tear you shed is collected in Heaven for else will break the numbness of the heart on earth. Only great sorrow breaks the hold of the mind and then we are truly reborn in Christ, a little child again. You lead us with your humble way, thankyou
Pastor Johnson, to listen to your sermons is always an experience, for your practice is to walk us into God’s presence. As we walk, I believe the honesty and transparency of your relationship with The Trinity is now accelerating all of our Spirit relationship understandings. I say this for it is now quite apparent the fruit of your life’s work has brought a delight which is now spreading through all around me and moving beyond all horizons.
As I listen, so I see and feel all whom I converse with, listen with a new openness, sincerity & intensity.
As a child my pet name was “Why”. interestingly asking “why” of adults is often seen as somewhat confrontational, and so we stop. However I have since found that asking Spirit, “how do you see his that or the other?…” in other words, “why?” , the whole of the situation/ circumstance appears to open up like a sort of path
The open mindedness of the child within, who still has so so many questions…. all waiting to be answered in a practical setting!! This is the relationship you have opened up for me and all whom I love 🔥
Thank you all at Bethel for your extraordinary leadership and a support which has never been more clear and valuable. The joy and peace of seeing scripture come to life in the present is beyond words.
The truth is coming 🔥
Pastor Bill, I am so greatful for this teaching. I just lost my husband of 20 years and I have been broken. He was my best friend and he helped me through life things that I was not understanding. I have a learning disability and he would put things in lament terms so I could understand. When I read the Bible I never needed his interpretation, because God gave it to me. I loved my husband so much and this too just happened. I am in the process of packing and losing my home where I lived with him and moving in with my sister. I just wanted to thank you so much for your message. It was not only powerful it was Jesus speaking to me. Thank you. Even though I will miss his smile and most of all our talks. I know I will see him again and that makes it bearable. God bless you and your family and I am so sorry for your loss. May God surround you with his Glory!
Papa Bill, I have been nourished by the bread from your soul. Thank you for sowing the seeds from your pain into us. You are so selfless.
Johnson family, you are all fabulous
Amen and yes he is faithful to God and his congregation. God's faithful servant is serving people after just losing his beautiful wife. My sincerest condolences and prayers for God"s continued grace 🙏
Amen. So raw, real and amazing. Thank you Pastor Bill for your childlike faith in the midst of your pain.🥰❤️
You are so brave! Thank you for being an example of humility, faith and joy we can follow even in your greatest pain.
This is so eye opening on so many levels. What a heart. Just beautiful but in the rawest way. I want to know the Father in this way. I didn’t mourn biblically
What a wonderful example of Obedience, love for Jesus, and a life wholly laid down. A soul submitted to His word and a brokenness that is full of His oil
Bless God for Beni and Bill Johnson TU both forever for changing my life you are in my constant prayers
This is a sacred moment…out of this moment the Holy Spirit is pouring thru Bill to each of us, what we need…for our day of loss…and gain 🙏🙏❤️❤️
Yes Sharon - it absolutely is.
Thank you Pastor Bill from the UK. Such a powerful, impactful message that is reaching far and wide.I think I cried for most of it, such was the impact it had.
I am praying for you, pastor Bill, your family and church. Your life and spirit filled message has touched lives of so many including me here in South Korea. Thank you always.
thanks
Hope is always tied to the resurrection!!
ONLY GOD IN Bill Johnson could give him THAT KIND OF STRENGTH!!!❤
As Christians...His Children... We know He makes no mistakes.
I pray his strength in God.
My heart goes out to Brother Johnson and his church family. I think this message is to prepare us all for what lies ahead in life. I want to offer thanksgiving and praise to the Lord in the midst of pain and loss. This message has so many jewels to tuck away and remember in the day when life tests us. God is Good. God is Good all the time.
Bless you Bill from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤🙏🏽🤗
This ministered to me so powerfully. Thank you so much 🙏
Incredible truths proclaimed! This sermon has surely marked me! This is what a person completely sold out to the Lord looks like. Lord let us all run and finish our race well!
