Jesus is your model and example on how to deal with every crisis and circumstance.You were never created to react to your circumstances! Its easy to do, and we all fall prey to that mindset. Whether its personally or globally, we want to immediately react in knee-jerk fashion to the crises we are experiencing. The problem is we start to pray from a place of crisis, fear, and anxiety. When you know who the Father is and what He says about what you are going through, you can pray from a place of confidence. You can stand strong, even when everything seems to be shaking around you. Pastor Bill Johnson delivers a timely reminder that we are called to respond to disaster by first, knowing who Father God is, and then, responding to Him in the midst of what we are going through. How to be unshakably rooted in who the Father is.How a revelation of Jesus reveals the Fathers heart, will, and voice.How to respond to your every problem like Jesus would, from disease to money to possessions.How to know the difference between God being in control and God being in charge.How to disarm the powers of hell with thanksgiving. Prepare your heart for a fresh encounter with the goodness of God. In the midst of disaster and crisis, settle your mind in the unchangeable truths of who God is, what Jesus revealed about the Good Father, and how Jesus dealt with the circumstances He faced while walking the Earth. After all, Jesus is your model and example!

About the author
Bill Johnson
765 books540 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.

I’m in awe of the simplicity of the book. Only 100 pages of reading solid gold information of the heart of God. This is one that can be read multiple times and I’m sure you will receive more revelation the second time.
During this fear walk of the cv19 issue, much of my response was expressed in this book.
Everything that distracts us from the Love Of God is spirit driven and Bill Johnson gives revelation of how we should trust as well as share with others God’s plans in the matter.
A must read and a great gift for others.
There are a few books that just need to be reread because of the revelations that continue to come as a result of the Holy Spirit taking us deeper in the Lord.
Bill Johnson always says “The Holy Spirit is in me for my sake but He is on me for your sake.” This book equips us so we can release the Holy Spirit in the world.
