😢Thank you for Sharing us such a special moment with the Holy Spirit.

[@telewired]

I need this baptism of FIRE---please pray for me--have been pursuing my God for 43 years and I am desperate for this fire of the Holy Spirit----At any and all costs I want more of the Holy Spirit....

[@robertnieten7259]

The baptism of fire is the baptism of the Holy Spirit. The old testament prophets and Holy men had the Spirit of God descend upon them, fill them, but in time ascend again. You never hear of them having the Holy Spirit fill them and remain within them. This only became possible in Acts ch.2. Never have I found in the new testament to where a believer was filled with the Holy Spirit and then later was baptized with the Holy Spirit. That is because they are the same event. To be baptized in the Holy Spirit is to recieve the Holy Spirit The Word " recieve" in the new testaments' original Greek means, " to take hold of". Which means we must do something in order for it to occur, not to somehow earn it, but in order to recieve the free gift of the Holy Spirit. This generally occurs after repentance and water baptism in water in the name of Jesus Christ. There are only three instances under the new covenant to where we are told of believers recieving the Holy Spirit and what happened the moment that they recieved. In each instance, the first thing that happened the moment that they recieved is that they spoke in " tongues". (Acts ch.2,10,and ch.19).

Oh my God, yess, I also remember me, when i was praying, to use me for him, and he asked me in a dream 3 times:“Do you really want this?“ and I said YESS! Yes and when he comes with his presence, everything changes!!! Thank you for telling, the people need stories like this! 🙏

[@ernestdiener]

I have heard this message many a few times now. And at this time in my life it is most needed and a prevalent need and desire for my life and the next season of my life. Thank You Pastor Bill, for your sacrifice and your dedication to the Lord.

[@annettevanzyl2397]

I long for Him with all of my heart....I cried and cried so much, especially after Passion weekend. I walked with Him through the crucifiction and was emotionally undone. But so much insight about Himself came to me. I wrote it all down. I don't know what to say....

[@johnbanjo7357]

No words but open hearts for the more of God... 🔥🔥🔥

[@cassandrasmith5314]

Amen! The fire of God was all over me while I was watching and listening to him. 🔥🔥🔥

[@shirleyperks1410]

AMEN YES!

[@g.t.g1111]

The thirst for more… The hunger for more. When you are seeking for answers… HOLY SPIRIT Rest Rule and Abide…

[@teresawalker2976]

Yes!!! Holy Spirit, please, rest, rule, and abide on me this time please.

[@sandlegrench6759]

I MUST have more Jesus!!

[@claudiam3402]

Please pray for salvation and union of my family.Thank-you.

[@annemoore6161]

Yes! I experienced this manifestation at the Brownsville Revival in 1996, as well as many others. We cannot put God in a box. He will do what is necessary to move our will and hearts toward Him. God had to radically get a hold of me because I was far from him. We later moved there to attend BRSM. I am forever changed AND CAN NEVER BE SATISFIED WITH RELIGION AGAIN. SEND THE FIRE LORD, 🔥🔥🔥

[@jacqueford4213]

I just love this man. His passion for God is palpable❤️‍🔥

[@karencarden2316]

Yes! Feel absolutely same. No one I’d rather study Jesus from

[@teresawalker2976]

Holy Spirit led me here to listen to this. I have been in afflictions and chastisement, and in many tears, and much pain. I have also been given many revelations down thru many years, and I have fought many battles and lost them. His mercy and grace on me, my whole life, truly from the womb of my mother, is almost beyond my own belief sometimes, but I have lived it these 69 years, and many have witnessed much of it, but from their own perspectives, for reasons between Him and then. Psalm 51, has always been one that lost touch my heart, and dow thru the years, He brings it back to me, like now. I am in solitude a lot again, alone with Him, and in and out of purgings of my own heart, and intercessions and travail for many others hearts. Yesterday, He laid on my heart to do communion, I had the wine, but no bread. Once before, He laid on my heart to do it, and I had neither. So I did it anyway, and spoke it out, as if I had both. His Spirit fell on me in power. I did it anyway yesterday, though I did not have bread. And once again, His Spirit fell on me in power. Just before I left out of my tent, He gave me a vision. I saw the earth, at a distance and I saw blood coming down in a stream from heaven and pouring upon the earth and beginning to cover the earth. Then I walked outside to see the sun rise, and He drew my attention to an Oak Tree, He saved my breath lying under in 2017. It is half burned up now. And there is a higher cross on the corner of my property, that a brother put up, at my request, made from two cedar trees, from my property. The Oak Tree that was half burned, was because it was his camper sitting beneath it, that burned to the ground. He and his fiance barely had time to escape with their lives in their sleeping clothes. In the top of that half burned Oak Tree was a single raven sitting in a branch. And He laid it on my heart to take a photo with my cell phone of it with the sun rising. It is so striking when I shared it, even some who are not very given to such things remarked on it. I honestly do not know why I am sharing this here. I believe it was Him prodding me to, He has told me things before to do that I do not understand until later. I just try to obey Him, just in case. Forgive me please if it was not of Him. This sermon was very powerful to me. It is time for me to cleanse my heart. Thank You Holy Spirit.

[@Everydayisagift-]

[@austinsullivan7651]

Bill, this sermon clip came just after I had quoted you. A friend in our ministry/family was ill and we were all praying for her. This afternoon, word came that she was greatly improved. My response was that "the enemy of our souls doesn't have a chance " and I quoted you, that "he is dead meat". I am in a season of waiting and searching for Him. Your message came at a very significant moment. Thank you, Holy Spirit 💖

[@cristinacantu1762]

Wow God thanks for this great servant. It’s amazing the ways you work with every single person. Hallelujah!! Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven

[@elizabethchandler2142]

It happened to me three times at the TSNL conference (Daniel adams) it forever changed my life. I was already baptized in the Holy Spirit but this was like a fresh baptism of fire! it literally electrocuted me and I felt like my whole body was on fire! (In a good way ) God told me he was giving me fire!🔥🔥🔥 it has changed me! It has purified me!!! He loves us so much and is so much closer then we realize

[@anthonydesilva8746]

Hi Bill, I bumped into you in Dubai back in 2011 at a buffet lunch. It was a 5 minute moment in which I just congratulated you and walked away. I was part of a group called wowlife church which was just getting off the ground and we attended this conference where you are Randy hammered us with words that will forever be edged in the tablet of our hearts. My pastor was and is Kirby De Lanerolle who taught me to honor all teachers of the word. I have submitted myself to his ministry and care and probably will for a long time to come. But you Bill will always be admired and honored as a man of God who has shaped my life in more ways than one. I hope and pray that the great matrix of life will someday bring us together at least to cross paths like it was in Dubai back in 2011. Until then keep rocking and rolling with your brilliance Bill. I hope to be half the man you are and three quarter the man my pastor is and someday fully the man my savior Jesus was and finally glorious like we all must be on earth as it is in heaven. Best wishes Druvi De Silva Wowlife church Sri Lanka

Baptism of Holy Spirit and Fire changes every thing. Easy ? No . But worth it Yes!!For all His glory and for others to see that truly He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lord’s

[@jjreddog571]

When Jesus Christ was filled with the Holy Spirit He received the Baptism in its fullness , A Seven Fold complete measure by the descending Holy Spirit in the form of a dove from the Father. When I received my filling it was a small measure and by fire because I am just profane a sinner saved by Grace.

[@annatanui5704]

Thanks, Amen.

[@yahwehsfirstfruitscremedel6816]

The baptism of fire in its fullest measure, will greatly consume our whole being (like a Raging fire) to the point where the only thing we will be able to do and want to do is completely suppress our will and embrace his will in order that we would become a Holy expression of his divinity. Like a trumpet, Our outcry will coincide with the outcry of Heavenly angels who are constantly bursting out/ billowing/shouting (Hallelujah), with all of their might and all of their strength and whatever strength is left Within me, I will completely and wholeheartedly give honor to whom honor is due. The Best Is Yet To Come!

[@blueskies382]

Today's church talked about this, they prayed for people to receive it. I don't know if I'm ready for it. But I will take it into serious consideration since it was talked about. But more than that we were told to pray especially if we want revival. God bless 🙏

[@timothysmith9050]

Pastor Bill. I to am blessed by your sermons. I had to repent this morning for fighting on certain KZbin channels that try to bash this ministry. I should know better..that I can't change how people believe...and they can't change what I believe either.

[@meetgodattheburningbush8786]

This is my story, praise God! Listen to him, "Bill Johnson shares his personal experience of baptism in the Holy Spirit. This significant encounter has marked Bill’s life and ministry. A fresh baptism of fire is available for us all, and God is ready to baptize those who will say “Yes” wholeheartedly to Him!" I had the burning bush experience in the Holy Spirit, too. The results are supernatural. God uses his anointed in fantastic ways. Now it is your turn. Tune in, pursue God, and the fire will one day arrive, unexpectedly. My mission is to teach people through my experiences that God wants you to press in, we will tell you how. Nice job Bill! Only 24% of 173 million Christians believe in this power in God. We have to change that since 40% do not believe all of the Bible! Give him you ear! God travels the world searching for believers who seek Him so He can strengthen their hearts. Be one of them!

[@JonathanBrenneman]

I'm pretty sure Bill was baptized in the Holy Spirit and spoke in tongues before this experience. But this "baptism in fire" sure changed his priorities!

[@laurajohnson7169]

This sermon clip was posted for me today, I think. :) Thank you, Pastor Bill. I am praying for you.

Sad for you and your family. Elisabeth Elliots talks on KZbin are very encouraging.

[@theresaallison2733]

Thanks again for your transparency and bravery to share the intimate details of you and God. I have a small idea how bullied and misunderstood you and your heart are. I am not confused. I am sold out and am embracing my defects that God and I know in trueness. I'm so tired of striving to be perfect for people and the church. I choose to fix my 👀 on Jesus and allow God to do as He pleases. Abundant blessings Pastor Bill.
