Take Hold of God’s Promises for Your Life - Bill Johnson Sermon Series, Bethel Church

About this sermon

0:00 How to Pursue and Step Into Your Promised Land (Lessons From the Wilderness) Bill Johnson teaches lessons from the Israelites journey through the wilderness and how to pursue your own promised land. Unbelief caused the Israelites to wander in the wilderness for 40 years because they did not join their faith to the word of the Lord. God has given you promises, but in many situations it will take your agreement in faith for it to come to pass. Gods promises are “yes and amen”. He has already declared the “yes”, and waits for your “amen”; your agreement with what He has said. To walk in Jesus’ footsteps requires a pursuit of all that He has made available to you through the Holy Spirit. The power of the Holy Spirit in you is more than enough to meet people in their place of need and introduce them to a good and perfect Heavenly Father. It’s up to you to pursue an anointing for breakthrough and co-labor with God to see His Kingdom bring light to even the darkest places. Originally preached December 8, 2024 41:21 A Year of Promise: Explore Your Promised Land Bill Johnson shares a prophetic sense that the new year will be a year of promises and teaches how to steward God’s promises for your life. God has equipped you with promises, but many of His promises require your partnership to be fulfilled. Learning from the Israelites journey to the Promised Land, complaining in the face of unanswered prayer will cause you to forget God’s promise and the testimonies of what He has done for you in the past. Declaring God’s Word and His promise resets your heart to trust in Him and keeps you in a place of hope. God’s promises being fulfilled in your life is not about being wealthy in a worldly sense, but is about coming alive as you walk in His plans and purposes for your life. Originally preached December 22, 2024 1:22:07 How to Step Into God’s Promises Bill Johnson shares vision for 2025 and how to step into God’s promises in the new year. You have a part to play in the fulfillment of God’s promises for your life. Hearing God’s voice and declaring His word over your life are key in building faith and hope as you position yourself for the fulfillment of those promises. Entitlement and complaining foster an attitude of unbelief, while thankfulness and intentional pursuit of God’s voice allow His Word to take root and produce fruit in your life. Originally preached December 29, 2024 2:05:45 Living for the Presence and Glory of God Bill Johnson teaches on the value of living for the Presence and glory of God. Finding our purpose and destiny is important, but nothing comes close to the importance of knowing God. Everything comes from this place of intimacy with God. Prioritizing His Presence keeps our hearts in tune with His, and focussed on what matters most. King David, who was a man of the Presence, declared in Psalm 27: 4, “One thing I have desired of the Lord, that will I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple.” Originally preached January 12, 2025 2:48:36 An Invitation to War: How to Fight for God’s Promises Bill Johnson teaches how to fight with and for God’s promises over your life. God has given you promises to lead you into your purpose and destiny, but there is a battle along the way. Paul instructed Timothy in 1 Timothy 1: 18 to take the prophecies he had been given and to use them as weapons. Keeping God’s promises in front of you is what will equip and strengthen you as you contend for the fulfillment of those promises. As you meditate on God’s word and remind yourself of who He is, you will become a faithful steward of His promises and see His purposes come to pass in your life. Originally preached February 9, 2025 3:28:56 Your Breakthrough Is on the Other Side of a Fight Bill Johnson talks about how your breakthrough is on the other side of a fight. Continuing his series on the Promised Land, Bill teaches from Joshua 1 and the battle of Jericho, highlighting the importance of obedience to God’s word. It’s easy to get excited about God’s promises, but what do you do when things don’t turn out how you expect? Or perhaps God’s promise is taking longer than you thought, or a seemingly contradicting word comes that makes you doubt what He first spoke to you. Trusting God and staying tender to His voice is important in your journey into your land of promise. Your breakthrough is on the other side of a battle, but God is with you and will give you the strategy. He has already set the stage for your victory.
