The Beauty and Wonder of Hope - Bill Johnson (Full Sermon) | Bethel Church

- Bill Johnson speaks about the beauty and wonder of hope. More than wishful thinking, hope is what anchors us to God’s goodness and faithfulness, and keeps our heart in a place of surrender to Him. Hopelessness robs us of the delight of obedience and the joy of sacrifice. It is our responsibility to manage our own hope levels. In this sermon, Bill shares keys for stewarding and growing hope in our own lives.

Oh so so orecious
Whoever reading this, I pray for you that God visits your home today with Healings, Blessings, and Miracles. Amen.💕
Thank you so much. I pray that you have blessings, joy, peace, protection and true friendships. ❤️
Amen!
Thank you so much for the encouragement I receive when I listen to you speak. Im 76 years old and just lost my beloved 52 year old daughter after a four year battle with cancer. We are a faith family and saw so many miracles along the way. We took communion and prayed together everyday. I was so sure she would be healed she even had angels in her room one night. She never wavered in her faith even though at the end she was paralyzed. She had seven miscarriages and then her miracle child that will be 12 next week. I finally found comfort in Hebrews 11 chapter about how those of great faith did not have their promises fulfilled here as they were just passing through in this world but not of this world. My faith to receive has been really shaken but I still love my precious Savoir and God foes not have to answer to me I answer to him. Please pray for me to be able to feel God’s presence and peace again. Your preaching and understanding of what it feels like is really helping me. I thank God for you and pray forthr healing balm of Gilead for our hearts 🙏❤️
Praying for you my darling Nancy 🙏🙏😞,I'm deeply sorry for your loss 💔😢 it is amazing how even I'm so far of you , God is using us wherever we are to pray for each other as a unity body of Christ May you and your grandkid and all your family finds the comfort you need to go through this sad time. 💗💗💗💗🙏🙏
Dearest Nancy, sending love and prayers for the SPIRIT to engulf you and yours in HIS precious presence! 💞 We mourn with you over the loss of your precious daughter! As a parent, even though I've not experienced it, I understand the grief that you each carry!
"Those who sow in tears
Shall reap in joy.
6 He who continually goes forth weeping,
Bearing seed for sowing,
Shall doubtless come again with rejoicing,
Bringing his sheaves with him. (Psalm 126:5-6)
Charles Spurgeon called tears, liquid prayer! This has often times encouraged my heart through challenging times!
Your sister in CHRIST, Deb
One of the things that Bill has said that has blessed me so much is, “to have the peace that passing understanding, we have to give up our understanding”. There’s so many prayers that seem to go unanswered. People that we thought would overcome, and seemingly haven’t. But we do not see as God sees, nor do we know what only He knows. I pray that there is so much peace and joy, that it fills every void and casts out every sorrow during this time for you and your family. You are not alone, but so loved and seen by the Father. 🙏🏻❤️
Benni is in Heaven, dancing on the golden streets with Jesus. Rejoice. She graduated!
Always good. Always real. Always new. Thank You, Father, for faithful men like this. Bless him and his family.
This one saved my family, restored the legacy of Hope for this and generations to come ❤
Looking forward to the day I can sit and talk with you Pastor Bill
It used to take me 5mins to figure out what each sentence he said means. I just wanted to say if your like that also I am up to speed now 😊 I believe wisdom will rub off on us as we gleam from men and women of God like pastor Bill. So many good ministries come from Bethel all good good good. That is called good good good fruit, I am going to head up there one day to pray 🔥 fresh fire 🔥Set a fire down in my soul that I can't contain and can't control I want more of U-God 💥
I appreciate the wisdom and anointing of this gentle Pastor and Father. His words are like a refreshing spring. Bless you Pastor Bill. I thank you for guarding your heart against this ravishing world to be set apart as a King and Priest. I so adore you.

Only word I have is, wonderful!
Thank you Jesus for Bill
Many blessings

Hi Pastor Bill, you and Beni have inspired my husband and me with your Easter 🐣 egg hunt. My husband and I started doing the same for our Grandchildren as well. It has been such a wonderful fun family time for us. Interesting how the older ones get onto the tricks of the hunt for their benefit 😆. Thank you for sharing your family life with us. Blessings and condolences from 🇨🇦❤️.
Amen!!!!! Thank You Pastor! Great revelation! I will be going through my challenges now in a completely new way; because there is a table right there The Lord has hidden for me!!
God bless you Pastor Bill. I thank God for you and the example you are to me. I’m so grateful.
"O my God"! (1 Chron. 17:25, & Neh. 13:14) Amen! Amen! Perfect timing for this sermon, Pastor Bill Johnson (& company)! Thank you so much! I've been wondering, & praying about, how/why the enemy (of our souls) has been able to "wear out the saints" (Dan, 7:25) as so many of us HAVE been, lately!)... & now I understand! The enemy has tripped us into losing/mis-placing OUR HOPE! I thank you, brother, for your preaching! Somehow, either it's that you speak my language -- or that I'm just hearing your language -- but either way, I am so redeemed-from-confusion by your sermons!
Pastor Bill, you never cease to amaze me. The anointing and grace on your life is wow! Bless you brother.
excellent message!!! Had to listen several times, such good stuff. Not easy but good.
The table that He set is not just for your strength but for your pleasure. O Wow ❤🔥
Thank you Bill for such an encouraging word with great wisdom and revelation of God‘s love for us in our hard times in the desert when he doesn’t seem near .
I thank God for you Pastor Bill🙏✝️
God bless everyone
Awesome message thank you Pastor.
“I serve the father who is in charge and I trust him”

Thank you Bill. What a blessing you receive in this all. His power unfolds in who want to follow Him All the glory to God and Jesus. He is the One❤
So good!
I agree with everything you said including cilantro! Great message. Thank you. I love you Heavenly Father. Thank You Jesus. You are Glorious and beautiful.
Yes and Amen
Always blow my mind, thanks for this sermon
That's how I feel
Whether the symbol on Superman’s chest, or the meaning of Aragorn’s name from tales of Middle Earth, or being one of the three eternals - along with Love and Faith - Hope has already been woven into culture and reality. No thing has ever “just happened,” so be free to lay hold of the tangible, confident assurance that comes down from the Father of Lights.

Trying to fall asleep to this as I'm having terrible sleep lately, however, the ads keep ripping me out of my almost sleeps :(
"My God of hope fills me with all joy and peace in believing I can abound in hope by the power of the Spirit within me"
Romans 15:13
He gave me this when I was in isolation in a tiny camper with no power or water in a very dark area that was danger filled, and I was broken hearted and crushed in spirit, He was close to me, and He instructed me to post this scripture when my eyes could see it, anytime I awoke from sleep, day or night, and where I could see it at all times. And He told me to speak it out too. So I obeyed Him. The Word for "power" there is #1411 in the Strongs Concordance, it is the Word, "dunamis", which means " miraculous force" or a "miracle" literally. He laid it on my heart because of the Word for "power" used there. My testimony is this... that even now, and I am back in that same situation again, this time grieving the death of a man I loved with all my heart, and in this isolation again, in the same dark area, and very isolated a lot again, alone, with Jesus, He reminds me of this verse again, and the "power" in it, because I saw your sermon today that I saw was in hope, it reminded me of this in 2017, and it still works the same miracle, in my heart!!! Hope!!! When I just speak it, or read it, or whisper it, hope, comes back in my heart. I pray that those who read this will heed it, and do this!!! I leave it here knowing that He laid it on my heart, and He will guide it to who needs it. Please, the "power" of this Word, is in this Word itself. "Taste and see that the Lord is good".
Thank You Father, in Jesus Name for Holy Spirit who leads me to all truth. Amen

Anything worth having costs something
Wonderful sermon I learned a lot from. Is this sermon after Beni’s passing? By way, I love cilantro 🌿.
C’mon Doc!🙌🏾
I concur.. cilantro is not good. I was not offended. 🤣🤣
Somebody please confirm me.
Is this pastor the author of A Life of Miracles Book?
Thanks.
yes
Can you post the title of Mr Daniel's message
I totally agree with your opinion of cylentro!!! It’s nasty!!!!
Ha ha Amen 🙏🏻
He meant parsley right? Because there’s about 1000 Hispanic dishes and salsas that without cilantro are boring!
Great message though! Really needed right now.
