Bill Johnson teaches how to enter your promised land and leave behind the wilderness. The Israelites circled the same mountain in the wilderness for 40 years, not realizing that God was looking for their trust. God does not want to bless you more than you can handle, and will withhold blessing (resource, favor, anointing) if it would destroy you. God is more interested in the condition of your heart and wants your trust. Keeping your heart surrendered to the Lord is key in preparing to entering God’s promises over your life. How you celebrate the breakthroughs of others prepares you for your own breakthrough. Subscribe for weekly videos: https://bit.ly/bjmYoutube

Scripture References: Mark 10: 23-29 Psalm 119: 17
Israel went for 40 years around the same
Mountain CU they just couldn’t learn the
lesson the lesson was abandonment and
trust and some people have gone without
for their entire life and all the Lord’s
trying to do is to teach trust because
once trust is settled you can be
intrusted with the promised
land all right got a
couple funny signs I don’t need a
valentine I need $8 million and a fast
[Laughter]
metabolism I don’t want to brag or make
anyone jealous but I can still fit into
the earrings I wore in high
school I love this one things I ask my
mom where’s my phone where’s the remote
what’s for dinner why can’t animals talk
things I ask my dad where’s
[Laughter]
mom that one’s just too true
I one
more a recent studies found that women
who carry a little extra weight live
longer than the men who mention
it yes amen yes amen
all growth is rewarded with
pruning all death is rewarded with
Resurrection to for seal to follow
him is the entrance into a lifestyle
that he’s in charge
of it’s a crosswalk into Resurrection
it’s a crosswalk into
breakthrough Israel traveled from
Egypt which was a picture of sin so
forgive me if you’re from
Egypt just a onetime illustration that’s
all
um from Egypt through the Wilderness
into the promised land the Wilderness
experience was one of
great difficulty and
challenge
they had to trust God every day for mana
on the
ground sometimes they were thirsty for
days had
nothing a rock was struck water came out
of the
rock one time there was a
whole supply of quail that didn’t turn
out real good but uh but they had meat
once but there was this ongoing
miracle that God trained them with in
the
wilderness but the daily provision of
Mana was not the promised
land it was the training for the
promised
land there are times where we
have a perspective of
faith
that uh I don’t want to say is immature
it’s just it’s not developed and that’s
probably true for all of us in some
measure but we we tend to think that the
person who believes God for daily
provision has greater Faith than the
person who
works and has an
income and it’s not true I remember
having a a a friend friend of mine he’s
home with the Lord now but a businessman
he was quite wealthy quite well too he
had a pretty large business it affected
uh from Denver West and uh and I
remember we’d have early morning prayer
meetings in Weaver Ville and he would
come early and he would be over on the
side he’d be kneeling and praying and
and in conversation with him sometime
after he began to come to this Perman he
he was there praying for his employees
that he would Prosper enough to keep
them employed so they could put their
kids through college that’s what he’s
praying for see when you when you have
we’ve got this thing in our n in our
nation that’s ugly and it’s it’s a
jealousy is exalted as a
virtue where people look at somebody who
has more than they do and assume they
did something wrong to get
it and uh jealousy is all often exalted
as a virtue and it’s it’s called
discernment and anytime you give a
virtuous name to some to a dysfunction
you give it not only permission to stay
you give it room to set down Roots until
it actually affects our
personality and the Lord is is wanting
to expose some of this stuff not out
there but in here so we where we know
how to properly celebrate another
person’s breakthrough
what’s what’s important is when you’ve
been praying for something and somebody
else gets your
breakthrough and you know they haven’t
prayed near as long as you have which
means basically they don’t deserve it
like you
do it’s a it’s an invitation for
personal breakthrough believe it or not
it’s actually it’s the mercy of God
exposing what could go wrong in the
heart so that when your breakthrough
comes it lands in a safe place character
is the container that blessing is to
rest in and it doesn’t leak out
character is what holds and contains the
blessing that the Lord would like to put
on our life what I don’t want to do is
is to create in your thinking blessing
means mansions
and M you know tons of material things
or whatever it sometimes includes that
but if that’s the focus we’re trouble
yeah what’s vital for us to learn is in
this
journey that we deal with what he’s
dealing with inside of us because he’s
always preparing us for greater
breakthrough I’ve said it to you a
number of times through the years let me
declare it again God disciplines us so
His blessings don’t kill
us he disciplines us so His blessings
don’t kill us he actually longs to put
blessings now some people in this room
would um many in the church let me just
say generally are very much afraid and
oppos to financial wealth wh which I
understand the reasoning I don’t agree
but I understand the reasoning the
problem is they don’t have the same fear
over increased anointing and both will
give you access to
Pride see to think that because I’m
pursuing something that’s overtly
spiritual I’m safe is far from the
truth because it’s the greater
recognition that is the issue can we
navigate
that see Jesus walked with an anointing
where everyone who came to him was
healed everyone the father sent to him
sent him to was healed so anyone who
came to him with a request was healed
everyone the father directed him to was
healed
what would
happen if that same measure of
breakthrough was put on just one
individual in this room it’d be cool for
a very short
time but your name would be a household
name within 30 days around the
country let’s say that you couldn’t be
bought let’s say that you’ve dealt with
a money issue you couldn’t be lured into
compromise for money let’s say that
issue is settled you still have a
problem because at our local airport
would be 50 private jets with suitcases
filled with money as they try to
persuade you to come and pray for their
dying loved one and so you can’t be
bought you still have a problem you can
only say yes to
one and you’ve got 49 others that fly
away and you’ve got their faces in front
of you that you didn’t have time to pray
for them the point is is is that
increased anointing gives us as much
access if not more access to Pride
arrogance Independence all the things
that are dangerous for us as much as
wealth so when I talk about wealth or I
talk about favor um let me use the word
blessing when I talk about the blessing
of the Lord increasing on our life there
are times
where it’s a promotion at
work there are times it’s
finding that spouse you’ve been waiting
for all these years there are times
where you’re unable to have children and
all of a sudden you’re pregnant with
twins see it’s it’s it favor blessing
comes in so many different ways
sometimes it’s just this people just
will prefer you at work there’s no
explanation you don’t have the highest
position but people just are drawn to
you maybe they automatic just confess
their personal issues and problems
because they they trust you that’s favor
that’s that’s wealth in this Kingdom
where the Lord adds that favor to your
life where people just trust you
sometimes it’s just the fact that you
just get the big breaks you get the big
deals but the point is is the Lord would
increase every one of our lives in this
realm of
blessing if we could carry it for for
his
glory which means I hold to everything
Loosely because sometimes today’s
blessing is tomorrow’s
investment I’ve been working on this
theme for a while I’m I’m working on a
book again and uh I think I’ve got
another week or so I’ll
finish but it’s it’s I talk about this
issue of promotion I talk about this is
issue of of blessing favor and increase
and how can we navigate it
well what does it look like first of all
if
uh if Eric was here tonight and I were
to give
him brand new
truck that’d be cool he’d be quite
happy I wouldn’t be very happy if you
gave it
away why because I actually gave it to
him because of my delight in him I I
want him to
enjoy what I bought him I I don’t want
him to take that gift and there’s
sometimes the Lord deposit something in
our life that he just wants to see our
Delight I’ve had times where I’ve given
things to people and they didn’t know
how to manage or handle that added
blessing in their life and so they
quickly just gave it away I understand I
understand we we don’t want to
accumulate you know we don’t want our
identity wrapped up in material things I
get that but there are times where our
confidence in his nature as a father is
revealed by how well we Steed a gift
that was given to us can you receive a
blessing give him thanks and simply
Delight in it see whenever the Lord
releases whether it’s a material
blessing it’s favor an Open Door
promotion at work whatever fill in the
blanks any of those things whenever he
adds blessing to our life he is always
trying to endar us to a world we cannot
see the problem is when that natural
blessing endear me to the visible more
than the Unseen is where the breakdown
starts for
me I believe that the Lord would fill
our lives
with with friends with position with
favor
with possessions all things that testify
of a father who is incredibly perfect
and he T takes absolute Delight in us
and the ability to celebrate his
goodness in the midst of a very special
meal that somebody bought for you
forgive me I’m I’m I’m going to repeat a
number of statements just because I want
to put it into context for
tonight I some of my favorite stories in
uh in church history or when uh a
missionary couple would sit down with
their children for dinner for example
and this has happened frequently
throughout history they would sit down
for dinner but they’d have no food in
the
house but they sit down anyway they set
the table they’ve got the forks and
spoons and knives everything’s in place
and there’s no food and they all sit
down and they pray and they give thanks
for the
food and right about the time they
finish the prayer there’s always a knock
on the door and somebody was moved by
God to bring groceries to that
missionary family I love those stories
so much it’s it’s a coolest thing in the
world I remember Benny and I used to run
a Street Ministry here called the salt
house about 4,000 years
ago and it was back you may be read
about it the hippie era it it actually
happened we saw for real and uh and we
worked with a lot of a lot of kids on
the street and stuff like that we lived
in this particular uh this particular
House downtown and people would drop in
for counseling and deliverance or maybe
they just wanted to try to throw our
piano at the front window which actually
tried to happen but we we had a number
of wonderful
experiences it it felt at one time that
every demonized person uh the west of
the Rockies came to visit us I can’t
prove that but that’s what it felt
like it was it was it was it was school
for us we thought we were there for them
but I think we were there to learn and
uh and it it was it was
interesting I remember one morning uh
Ben and I were praying together and and
talking and we we uh we looked at the
bills and there was a certain amount
that we in fact I asked Ben I said how
much do we need to pay the bills for the
ministry how how what’s do and she told
me the amount it was $300 and which
would be 20,000 today but uh
$300 and and I remember we just prayed
and I I was walking I walked out of the
house the mail came in the afternoon but
I walked out in the morning and open the
door and right to the left of the of the
the door um there’s a mailbox and I just
by habit just opened it there was an
envelope in there no stamp nothing with
an envelope and I open it and there’s a
check for $300 that’s I I love when that
stuff happens I mean Jesus is good at
that but here’s where I’m at in my life
right now I want to be the guy knocking
on the door I I I want to be the one who
hears responds and attends to somebody
else’s place because both are are places
of great blessing and honor and is uh
the disciples left everything to follow
Jesus and in Mark 10 in fact why don’t
you look at it it’d be fun just to have
you stare at the Bible for a minute Mark
chapter
10 this is a great uh portion of
scripture for so many
reasons Mark chapter
10 now I don’t I don’t know about about
you I I like I like the in yourface
verses I like the iny face verses I like
pick up your cross and follow me I those
verses those are good verses I don’t
want to read over this quickly I like I
like my coffee unreasonably
strong I like my so my hot sauce
insanely hot and I like my Bible to
growl at me when I pick it up that’s
that’s the way it is that’s this is my
approach to life so when I find the
in-your-face verses I don’t want to
dodge and assume it’s for somebody else
all right all
right don’t give me that
look um verse 23 of Mark chapter 10 the
dis Jesus looked around and said to his
disciples how hard it is for those who
have riches to enter the kingdom of
God how many of you understand every one
of us
qualify as the hard
one yeah don’t I wouldn’t answer me
either if I were you it’s it’s not a
trick question but let’s just keep
reading verse 24 and the disciples were
astonished at his words but Jesus
answered again and said to them children
how hard it is for those who trust in
riches to enter the kingdom of God this
time he adds
a description to his
statement those who trust in riches so
I’ve asked you the question
before right now we have politicians we
have political Realms we have we have
they’re trying to figure out how much is
too much money for a person to
make first of all it’s not government’s
responsibility but I’ll leave that aside
since I’m not running for
office
how much is too much
money it’s whatever amount replaces
trust see for one person $1,000 in the
bank is more is beyond their trust level
all of a sudden they turn to the money
instead of trusting God but but there
are others it could be100
million because it’s not an amount it’s
a condition of the heart and so Jesus
says how hard it is for those who trust
in riches to enter the kingdom now jump
down to verse um uh verse 26 they were
greatly astonished saying among
themselves who then can be saved do you
understand they are asking that even
about
themselves all
right verse 27 Jesus looked at them and
said with men it’s impossible with but
With God all things are possible verse
28 Peter began to say them see we’ve
left all and followed you Jesus answered
and said assuredly I say to you there is
no one who has left house or brothers or
sisters or father or mother or wife or
children or lands for my sake and the
gospels who shall not receive a h
hundredfold now in this time houses
brothers sisters mothers children and
lands with
persecutions and then the age to come
eternal life I like this verse for a
whole bunch of
reasons first of all what are you going
to do with h hundred
[Laughter]
mothers you get the point Jesus is using
a
description announcing to those who left
everything to follow him that they have
access to unlimited resource to
accomplish all they’ve been called to
do unlimited resource David put it this
way he prayed it in Psalms 119:1 17 I
believe he said deal with your servant
bountifully that I may live and keep
your word in other words the only way I
could possibly fulfill all that you’ve
put in my heart is that you would have
to deal with me
bountifully the expectation for increase
I know automatically we think of dollars
and it’s easy to measure
but there there are many in this room
money is not the answer it’s a promotion
it’s a position change it’s an idea it’s
an invention it’s a song it’s a Melody
that’s never been heard it’s just the
fact that God is giving us access to his
mystery realm because he’s longing to
communicate the nature of his heart the
nature of his mind the nature of his
world to this one and it’s the people of
God that that have access to this realm
called the secret things the mystery of
God trusting God pursuing God so Peter
says we left everything to follow you
and Jesus said that’s right and I’m
going to add a 100 times as much back
into your
life with
persecution there there’s a promise I’ve
never seen on any one’s
[Laughter]
refrigerator I’ve seen a lot of good
promises but that one was never in the
Bible promise
box but follow this with
me Israel left Egypt went
through difficulty so they could be
trusted with the Promised
Land
Israel went
through the Red
Sea Paul calls it the baptism of
Moses through
trial and now through another another
body of water a baptism but this one’s
not a still body of water it’s a
river it’s the purpose for Holy Spirit
baptism to introduce to a way of life
that you can’t get on the other side of
the
river there’s a death that takes place
but there’s a life that becomes
clear the disciples leave everything to
follow Jesus they have
nothing and before Jesus goes he says
I’m going to add 100 times back into
your life he wasn’t saying I’m going to
give you mansions on
hilltops I’m giving you access to
unlimited resource to accomplish all
you’ve been called to do why because you
trusted me without I can now trust you
with before Jesus before Jesus died he
he did this very very strange thing he
told his disciples to get a
sword I think Peter was quite happy with
that
direction he been warming up and his
sword
swinging so in the
garden they come to take
Jesus Peter
knows why Jesus would want him to have a
sword to hurt
people of
course and so he pulls out the sword
cuts off the servant’s
ear Jesus shakes his head puts the ear
back heals
it put the sword
away what purpose did the sword
serve take this with a grain of salts
just an
opinion only
Jesus would have you get a sword you
can’t
use because it is
symbolic of an entire realm of resource
that is at your disposal for all God’s
called you called you to do
I remember many years ago I was looking
through a fly fishing catalog which is a
great joy of
mine fly fishing and the
catalogs I like most hunting and fishing
catalogs and I look through them to
discover the will of God for my
life it’s amazing how sometimes the Lord
will just speak to
you and uh and I got this catalog from
our local Fly Shop it’s one of the best
best in the world and I go through it
and I look each page just waiting to
hear the father
speak I will admit it didn’t happen but
I I gave him the chance and I didn’t
throw it away just in
case tomorrow he might
speak I go through the catalog and at
the very end of the of the uh catalog is
all the items that only true devoted fly
fisherman would ever
want uh a leather couch with a trout
etched into the leather
cushion things that are essential
essential um Crystal
goblets with a famous river etched on
the
side or a picture of a rainbow trout
leaping for a fly things that no serious
fly fisherman would want to live without
and I got to that part of the catalog
and I’m looking at all the goblets and
there was this one section I can still
see it right side of the page right down
the inside column there were three
flasks flask made out
of comper stainless steel or something
and it was I apparently flash Fishman
like to have whiskey or brandy or
something with them in case you’re not
catching stuff I don’t know I figure I I
figure that must be why it’s there so
I looked at them and it was exact it
took me like two SEC 3 seconds to look
through I looked at them and they just
look cool so I looked at the price and I
thought to myself I can afford it and
then I thought I have no use for it I
mean I don’t take whiskey to the river
you
know come to think but there is Brandy
creep up by whiskey Town Lake maybe
that’s where you would do it I don’t
know anyway all right that’s for those
of you who aren’t local that’s actually
the name of placees so I looked I looked
at the price I thought I have no use for
it so I turned the page got through with
the catalog put it away we uh went to
England a week or so later and Benny and
I were uh were at this conference and a
woman brought each of us a gift and of
course I had Benny open her gift first
and I I don’t remember to this day what
it was but it was something you’d give a
Godly woman you know earring with cross
or picture frame with the name Jesus
honor or something you
know it’s just what you give to godly
people you know it’s just a it was a
nice it was a nice Christian
gift and then I open
mine I open it and there’s a
flask a
flask now outwardly I’m saying that’s
awesome thank you so much inwardly I’m
thinking you’re a
kidding you’re a
kidding do you know how many things I
have on my emergency list prayers that
need to be
answered do you know how many things
that are important they’re not life and
death but they’re on my list that need
to be
answered I even have this it would be
nice part of the
list and under that is a pile of stuff
that wasn’t good enough to make the
list and on the bottom of that
pile was 3 seconds glancing at a flask
in a
catalog and King Jesus reaches to the
bottom of this insignificant pile pulls
out a flask inspires a woman across the
pond bill needs one of
these
it’s my it’s my
sword it it’s it’s just
there to remind me everything’s
covered everything’s covered that he
would actually inspire someone to spend
their
dollars to buy me something
I have no use for because I looked at it
for three
seconds I’m trying
trying I’m going to get there come on
I’m going to get there you and
[Laughter]
[Applause]
me we may have to tag team this one
h
look at this verse
again 29 assuredly I say to you there’s
none who has left house or brother
sister father mother wife CH 100 wives
Solomon no never mind children lands for
my sake and the gospels who shall not
receive a h
hundredfold look at it now in this
time this is not heaven
now in this
time houses brothers sisters mothers
children
lands with
persecution and in the age to come
eternal
life I remember several years ago in
fact uh this last week was Bob Jones
homegoing anniversary he died on
Valentine’s Day if you don’t know who he
was he was a wonderful friend of ours A
a amazing prophet of the Lord uh who
actually died way back in the 70s and he
he came before the Lord and the Lord had
one question for him did you learn to
love wow and the next moment he found
himself back in his
body and he spent from the 70s until
what three years ago four years
ago learning to love and if you knew Bob
at all you knew that was what
he what he excelled at he just love he
just loved he loved us so much he loved
people so much
and Jesus took him home on Valentine’s
Day
wow we were sitting at a table at his
funeral after the service everything was
done I was sitting at a table with
several a number of folks that you would
know with with Mike ble and Joiner bunch
of
others and we were just talking about
some of the things that uh that we were
experiencing it was if I tell you what
it was it would sound like a complaining
session it wasn’t we were kind of
comparing notes to be honest there’s uh
not everybody in social media is is wild
about us which is it’s a
shock it’s a it’s a complete
shock I I you probably didn’t know this
but it’s true
it’s
true I have a sign on my phone that said
on the internet you can be anything you
want so why do so many people choose to
be
[Laughter]
stupid that’s unrelated to this subject
of
course so we were talking about some of
the things that we had have had happened
and and one of the guys there uh Bob
Wier mirin Offa Ministries wonderful
wonderful man he said he said I just
call it income
tax and everybody just kept on talking I
said I said
what he said income tax Yeah the more
income the more
tax the more
favor
yeah learn to handle it well because it
determines what you can car
really
does many break down at that point of
opposition
rejection Jesus
said see if I will not return to you 100
times as much
now in this time with
persecution I don’t think the Lord
inspires
persecution I just think blessing on
people’s lives Stir It Up in
others and one of the things we are
required to
navigate is being with
people and it just doesn’t always feel
good many turn to retaliation
Vindication they respond in like spirit
and and it’s just
tragic I remember years ago watching
there was a real moral mess with a bunch
of leaders I think it was back in the
80s it was it was
embarrassing and uh there was this Ted
Coppel I believe is who I think is the
one who with ABC did this panel and he
had all these major leaders in the
church that were in this panel panel and
there there’s this this conversation but
all these famous Christians that had
fallen
morally and I’ll never forget as long as
I live what Ted Coppel said he
said when we do investigative reporting
it requires us to do a lot of
research but with these stories you guys
called
us
did you hear what I just
said he said you guys Christian leaders
called us with information about other
Christian leaders we didn’t have to do
the
research you guys called
us throughout history there have been
times where there have been great moves
of God that literally just came came to
an abrupt end because of
jealousies because of competition so
many things and yet never was it in the
heart of God to end the increase the
ramping up of what he was doing in the
Earth but in order to save those who
were carrying that weight of Glory so as
not to bless them beyond their capacity
to Bear he withdrew the anointing we’re
at a place in a time where I feel like
the Lord
the Lord is wanting to see yet again
what can we carry before him can we be
misunderstood I mean nobody likes it you
never have to enjoy it but you do have
the privilege of giving thanks in the
middle of
it the the key three months ago the L in
the middle of the night the Lord spoke
to me um the key to mental health is
giving thanks and
everything the key to emotional health
is rejoicing
always maintaining that aspect that
approach to life is Central to who God
made us to be so here we’ve got this
story see if I will not add back into
your life a hundred times with
persecution there’s something about
difficulty that keeps us prayed up or we
crumble under the
difficulty and I believe that the Lord
would love to demonstrate his
resurrection power he would love to Dem
demonstrate what it looks like to have a
people that that are finally out of the
Wilderness Israel went for 40 years
around the same Mountain because they
just couldn’t learn the lesson the
lesson was abandonment and trust and
some people have gone without for their
entire life and all the Lord’s trying to
do is to teach trust because once trust
is settled you can be in Trust Ed with
the promised
land I believe to embrace the assignment
that’s been given to us which is to
disciple
Nations we have to have this lesson
done I have to be okay with you
getting the car I was praying
for I have to know how to celebrate your
promotion when I was hoping it would be
my
turn Jesus and Solomon in
Proverbs both taught the same
concept that when you when somebody else
experiences a
breakthrough it is an opportunity for us
to
celebrate their
breakthrough as preparation for our own
and the inability to celebrate somebody
else’s breakthrough as though it were
mine
actually pushes back my own experience
of
breakthrough left
Egypt
Wilderness finally dealt with
trust the promised
land is where they had to go to
work doesn’t sound like the promised
land for a lot of
people why was it the promised
land because God would Breathe on human
labor and bring Supernatural increase
there was the partnership of our effort
and God’s
grace it is the very thing that God has
wanted demonstrated in the Earth from
day one is the partnership of Heaven and
Earth it’s that beautiful marriage of
Supernatural and natural so that they
work together in tandem illustrating
this perfect father for who he is I
believe that the Lord is giving us an
opportunity to see what that’s like
again and so I want you to stand we’re
going to
pray
I hope he gives you a sword you can’t
use in my
closet there was a shelf where I put a
flask
and every day when I got
dressed I had the
reminder of what he’s
like he notices the
subtle attention of your heart towards
something never was even big enough to
pray
about was never even enough to
put a dent in the
day but somehow he caught
it I remember many years ago sitting out
at Whiskey Town Lake and there’s no
correlation between the flask and
whiskey Town
[Laughter]
Lake
I was there by myself had my Bible it

I’d throw them in the water they’d come
up and eat it spit it
out I was there to torment
them it’s a
gift I pick up another little Pebble
throw it in they eat it spit it
out and I had this thought cross my mind
I wonder if they would eat a
bee because bees have
stingers so I just wonder if they would
eat a
bee as soon as that I thought

this side it stopped right in front of

asked for the husband and wife he
said we’re kind of tight right now so I
didn’t have a gift to
bring could I just pray for the two of
you and so they said

little circle and he put his hands on
them and he celebrated the goodness of
God for prospering this business that
everyone else would say was a
competitive
business and he prayed for abundance he
celebrated the goodness of God on this
