The Principled Presence – Bill Johnson Sermon | The Beauty of Wisdom Series

by



Bill Johnson’s series on The Beauty of Wisdom studies the life of Solomon and reveals a prophetic pattern for cultural transformation through divine wisdom. In this session, Bill Johnson teaches on the value of living from the Presence of God and understanding His principles for life. David was a man of Presence, while Solomon was a man of principle. Solomon’s lack of value for the Presence, despite his extraordinary principles of wisdom, was what left room for him to walk away from the Lord later in his life. We are to be people of both Presence and principle.

This is the fifth sermon in Bill Johnson’s series, The Beauty of Wisdom. Watch the series here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLb6nhK2fHSTN5CZbqgTmsFORqZqWHiwEB

  2. Faith is our true test. I trust in God even as I struggle to take care of my children and myself. As a single mother things are so hard on me. Both of my sons are autistic I’m overwhelmed. God please hear my prayers. I’m constantly struggling to buy groceries and constantly struggling to pay rent I’m ashamed and overwhelmed. But I choose to have faith over fear as christians that’s all we can do. No matter your struggle, you can turn to God. He knows us personally and can give us strength to overcome our challenges. Heavenly and merciful Father, I come before your glorious throne today, in humble adoration please help me overcome my struggles and my constant fear of homelessness. You have provided this far and I’m so grateful for your love and mercy. I will continue to walk with faith! And not by sight!

  8. TEACHER BILL, I WATCH YOU and HEAR YOU TEACH WITH ABSOLUTE ATTENTION to ACTUALLY HEAR & SEE WHAT GOD'S put in YOU to SHARE WITH US…
    That is the very reason I seldom Verbally Acknowledge 'What you say' because I DON'T WANT to MISS ONE SINGLE POINT… in fact those PAUSES YOU ADD, are the times I MUST USE SIMPLY to EXHALE and READY MY-SELF for What's Next… MANY Blessings to YOU, MY BROTHER, NEVER DOUBT The Impact Your Walk over the years has on Our Lives 🫂 Priceless 🤔

  10. Amen. And thank you for continuing to stand with me for my breakthrough to become visible to me. God is at work. But as David Wilkerson said, "The hardest part of faith is the last half hour before Jesus shows up" (which I hope I am in, or it will be even more disastrous…)

  12. Heard you say that when Jesus died on the cross, he did away with the Sabbath. Where does it say that I'm the Bible? The Sabbath has never been done away with. Why would God send His son to die to do away with a day He sanctified and gave to us as a sign between Him and His children? Jesus died on the cross to do away with animal sacrifices as a way of earning our way to Heaven. He did away with the Law of Moses. I was disappointed when I heard you teach this untruth. Prove it with scripture please?

  16. What the hell are you going to teach. That people don't already know Bill? The Bible's old it's been revised so many times you can't play that mind game no more. We can burn the Vatican down again and put the Pope's head on a platter if you'd like.😂😂😂😂

  18. Therese of Lisieux. Thérèse was a young French girl who entered a Carmelite convent when she was fifteen years old. She practiced the virtue of meekness by loving all the other nuns, even those who caused her annoyance. She strove to show her love not by great or heroic things but by little actions for God and her sisters.

  29. The Holy Spirit told me in 2016 that the world needed to know how to live as God loves his children because the world did not know how to do this. One scripture comes to my mind in the new testament Matthew 5 :21-7:29 Jesus teaches on anger this is from the Chronological Bible. Written and deciphered by many different religions All Religions October 6th this was written verse 39 But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek , turn to him the other also.40. And if someone wants to use you and take your tunic,let him have your cloak as well.41, if someone forces you to go one mile , go with him two miles 42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.43 You have heard that it was said,'" Love your neighbour and hate your enemy", But I tell you Live your enemies in pray for those who persecute you, that you may be son's of your Father in Heaven.He caused there sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and unrighteous.46 If you love those who love you what reward will you get?Are not even the Tax collectors doing that,??47 And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing to others?Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. I believe this sums up our work that we must strive to achieve to change people by changing how we treat everybody.Then after this is the next chapter that's is a warning about when we do this don't become prideful and puffed up on doing these things. Title is Jesus Teaches about Giving to the Needy. This is all just before the Lord's Prayer which I find is so in sync with the whole Character of God as Jesus is teaching his disciples all of this because after this it speaks about forgiveness which is a huge key element of every bodiies lives I believe when we hold unforgiveness deep wounds and deep healing is needed get rid of the cause of the unforgiveness with the bitterness and pain and hurt that's when the healing can be done through the Holy Spirit and Jesus. This was given to me by the Holy Spirit after I was miraculously healed of fibromyalgia when Pastor Evangelist John Mellor spoke the words of Luke 13v 10 on the woman that had a spirit of infirmity for 18 yrs that was me I was in so much pain.in 18 points around my body for 18 yrs and the power of God pushed me out of my seat and every part of my body that was affected became straight . Since then I have had 3 different healings from my tv praying the words that a pastor spoke on tv my feet had plantar and Osteoarthritisy knees were healed before replacements and I asked God to restore my healing mantle and faith into my hands to use them for his kingdom. But I have done some practice on people I live near and a couple of people in my last church but I was told I could not do it anymore. I have been through a church that had the spirit of Jezebele it devistated it and it split it was horrible the holy spirit told me it went on for 3 yrs I was very fearful and only a young Christian then. I almost fell during COVID but Jesus Saved the Holy Spirit stopped me from it. I had opened a crack to evil in my home and when He of showed me the realm one night I went on tv looked at all the deliverance and spiritual warfare I applied everything I could I repented, renounced and binded everything I could I cast it out and in Jesus name I put the blood over my windows and doors and everything that was happening in my world had gone away.I learnt how special and vitally important a praying mother is amazing I got down on my knees every night for weeks in tears crying out to God for the health of my 3 adult unsaved children that were on self destructive lifestyles every one of them stopped went to rehab and all have gone back to work. So I understand how powerful this is in everybody's life. I want to do bible college but my church is not really giving me any indications that I should do it .Maybe I'm too old I've been a Christian now for 17 yrs I'm 68 now I just want to serve Him and do the great Commission. This was a great lesson Thankyou Mr Johnson I have been watching and doing your home studies for 17yrs now. I love your Passion about Gods Love

  33. The heart was revealed in that Solomon went to Gibeon rather then Zion to meet the Lord. There was no Ark at Gibeon!! He asked for wisdom ( wrong tree?) instead of presence. The way the twig was bent the tree grew…..

  35. I am from Melbourne Australia & i so look forward every week to your teachings. Many years ago i was in a church where His presence was all consuming. Honestly i moved & haven't found a church like it. I look forward to your teachings every week. The way you captured the dichotomy of David's personaly – the warrior & lover of God's prescence reminded me of Psalm 42, As the deer pants for streams of wate, so my soul pants for you, my God.
    My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? My tears have been my food day and night,
    while people say to me all day long,  “Where is your God?”Nothing else matters. I am done! David's heart for God's presence. Thank you so much. Many blessings.
