    i use to get demonic nightmares 3 to 7 days a week of my parents, these evil dreams of them because I think deep down in my heart I had not forgiven them for abandoning me, when I really forgave them from the heart, the nightmares stopped

    Anyone who continually throws stones at Bill, calling him a false teacher/prophet, are so incredibly depraved and/or ignorant. This man never ceases to amaze me with the wisdom and knowledge that he freely gives to others. I am always so incredibly blessed by these messages, they are transformational; words of spirit and life.

    God is good. Thank you so much God for allowing this message to come to me. I woke up with bitterness in my heart and I DID struggle with bitterness but today I am healed and delivered from bitterness. I m so grateful to God for His continuous love to direct my path all the time. Papa Bill, thank you for always explaining the word the way you do. Some of us are dependent on the word but have no understanding unless someone like you explain it to us.
    Father, as I sit here, I pray for all those listening to this message to find freedom as I have today. Remind us always to run to Your throne and send Jesus to answer the door when the devil knocks on the door of our heart to give us reason for bitterness. Replace bitterness with truth/ love/ peace and most importantly thanksgiving which gives no room for bitterness and unforgiveness. Lord thank You! Thank You Holy Spirit. Thank You son of God. Amen!

Thank you Bill Johnson! 😊

    I have had a root of bitterness pulled up through Restore the Foundations. It was a long standing battle and I wanted free.
    It began with deliverance from a self loathing spirit I didn’t know I housed. Praise the Lord Jesus for all He has done and is doing. It was so wonderful to be loved and forgiven as I forgave my mother and then myself. It’s great to be able to see myself and release myself as it makes me forgive so much quicker. Especially myself as I goof up too often and thank Holy Spirit for changing me. Thank You for this timely message Pastor. You are a good shepherd.

      Wonderful! Consider doing the Love After Marriage seminar (under the umbrella of Bethel I think) it is genius and fabulous for those married 50 years and those married 50 days, those with broken marriages and those with healthy ones who want to get even better. My wife and I did it a year ago and it was really really good.

    Thank you Brother Bill. I have a great sense of justice. Because of that, I find myself ruminating over the exploitive actions of these people, as it appears there are no consequences, and in fact, they prosper. I do not envy them. But I realize that my thoughts have been corrosive. Thank you for this message

      I feel sorry for those who are in those deceitful 'clubs' of criticizing pastors and bible teachers. They have been deceived by satan into thinking they are doing God a favor by fault finding in the 'name of': 'exposing false teachers'. But, if you listen carefully to what the accusers are saying, often times they are misquoting those they criticise and are taking things out of context. They end up becoming a tool in the hands of the enemy. Praise The Lord that in HIS LOVE, HE will not overlook sins of bitterness.

    Thank you, Pastor Bill, for yet another message that hits too close for comfort! This sermon, like so many of yours, are what I call "sermon concentrate." There is enough good stuff in here to make an entire series of fully reconstituted sermons! I will have to watch this one numerous times to unpack it.
    You said you wished you had scripture references up on the screen for everyone. I don't know if I got them all, but here are the scripture references I picked up on while you were speaking:
    Ephesians 4:26-27 (Psalm 4:4)
    Matthew 6:9-13, Luke 11:2-4
    Matthew 3:8 and Luke 3:8
    Joshua 24:15
    Joshua 5:13-14
    Hebrews 12:12-17
    Philippians 4:8
    Did I miss any? If so, please add to this list! Thank you for all you do! May God continue to bless you richly!

    I would be interested in knowing has any of my family in Christ experienced the power of the kingdom?
    I have seen God move stars and giant angels standing with me ..I was camping in a tent and saw a star moving and then all of a sudden like lightning a light came down from the sky and struck the earth and the earth shook and there appeared a gigantic angel I and several witnesses experienced it..
    He stood over us with what appeared to be a sickle or large reaping device in his hands and he stood with fierceness in his appearance very angry ,but when he looked on us he had compassion in his eyes as if he was saying without words I will not harm you I love you..
    I cannot explain it

    Love your ministry, your life papa Bill! Your comment about being extremely happy to not do counseling any more though makes me cringe a little. Consider how someone who is in need of counseling, who is trying to get up courage to go to counseling might hear this, because they will likely think this attitude might be shared by other pastors and counselors. Namely that it is a distasteful service they tolerate and would rather not do. Does not help the person who is considering it to feel welcome to unzip their angst, sin and confusion.
    I totally get the feeling of having done a lot of counseling sessions that were exhausting, unpleasant, etc. But I think it is better to keep your thoughts to yourself on this. I've heard you say many times over the years how glad you are not to do counseling anymore and it makes me cringe every time.
    I have been super blessed by your life, teaching and ministry over the years and I'm extremely grateful for it. Keep going! And may Beni be totally healed!

    Bitterness is always justified by the bitter! Greatest virtue is thankfulness A Christian can give a place of influence to the enemy. Three areas ? sexual immorality, bitterness. Bitterness Is undeveloped murder. Bitterness defiles me , not the person you are bitter with. Forgiveness doesn’t mean to trust again.God’s anger is always with that which has no love. Emotion of anger is natural. It can lead to sin, self promotion, bitterness Bitter people lose trust quickly.Bitter people are not trustworthy. Determine to live a redemptive life.The enemy keeps us trapped in our past by bitterness.Don’t be bound by bitterness Bitterness distorts the reality & the present situation.Forgiveness should have evidence of behaviour changes.
