About the author
Bill Johnson
764 books539 followersBill Johnson and his wife Brenda (Beni) Johnson are the Senior Pastors of Bethel Church in Redding, California. Johnson is a fifth generation pastor.
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.
Bill Johnson and his wife have three children: Eric, Brian and Leah.
Johnson speaking at a conference
Bill Johnson and Beni (Brenda) began as singles pastors under his father at Bethel. In 1979, they became senior pastors of Mountain Chapel in Weaverville, California.
While pastoring in Weaverville, Johnson attended a 1987 conference led by John Wimber, founder of the Vineyard Church Movement. According to Johnson "A number of healings and manifestations broke out and I didn't know what to do with it. I didn't object to it, I wasn't opposed to it; I just didn't know how to pastor it in a way that it would continue and increase".
In 1995, Johnson attended the Toronto Blessing revival at the Toronto Airport Vineyard church. Johnson relates: "In Toronto I said, 'Lord, if You touch me again I will never change the subject.' So I went up for prayer every time it was offered. I didn't have anything dramatic happen, but I came home and said, 'I am going to give the rest of my life to this.'"
In February 1996, after 17 years of leading the Weaverville church, the Johnsons were invited to become senior pastors of Bethel. Today Johnson describes Bethel as a church where "everything we do either fuels revival or is fueled by revival." Under his leadership, Bethel left the Assemblies of God in 2006 to become a nondenominational charismatic church.
According to a recent book written by Johnson, "Face to Face with God", Bethel is "a church where supernatural encounters with God happen regularly, miracles are common, and the congregation has an infectious passion for spiritual growth." The church has approximately 1,500 members, and a School of Supernatural Ministry.
Their Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry has 1,200 students enrolled with over 370 from other countries. Johnson leads a network of churches dedicated to global, multi-generational revival, Global Legacy. Johnson has written a number of books and travels extensively as a featured revival conference speaker. Johnson is also involved with the Northern California Revival Fellowship, a group of north Californian pastors committed to revival.

August 23, 2018"The Year of Jubilee was the year the land rested, and God's people experienced another level of freedom: debts were forgiven, slaves were freed, and so forth. The freedom the Jubilee provides is to be the distinguishing mark on the lives of those who have met Jesus. Every day is the Sabbath and every year is the Jubilee for us - rest and liberty are to be seen on the countenance of all who belong to Him" (p. 109)
"All of God's judgments are aimed at whatever interferes with love" - Mike Bickle (p. 156)
"It is wiser to hold in tension two contradictory ideas than it is to twist what the Scripture has said, discounting the one that doesn't fit your ideal. Everything must yield to the Word of God" (p. 164)

The messages were short based on a Bible verse and ended with a short one line prayer.
I certainly was reminded of God's goodness which was the purpose of the book, however, I would have liked a little more depth.
I wonder if the Kindle price should be reduced to say $2.99, that way more people will buy it and this price is probably a better reflection of the value of the book.

This is an excellent devotional. No matter where you are in your walk, you can benefit from it. Bill Johnson is a gifted teacher and gave new insight to me regarding several scriptures. He is deeply steeped in the Word and calls you forth into a deeper walk with the Lord.
Grateful for your teaching, Mr. Johnson!
