Bill Johnson Giving Quotations

In order to have a peace that surpasses all understanding, you have to give up your right to understand

While it takes at least two to reconcile, it only takes one to forgive.

My responsibility is to obey, to surrender my heart and to yield myself to the will of God. It is in the process of obedience that we gain understanding. You can’t get the peace that passes understanding until you give up your right to understand.

Radical obedience always gives priority to what God has said over what He hasn't said.

God set the standard for giving love that demands nothing in return.

Our assignment is to see the dominion of God realized into people's lives. It is not an overpowering control, it is a life-giving, liberating experience with the almighty God, who is an ultimate, perfect Father who loves to bring liberty and freedom to His people.

In His mercy, God gives us the level of revelation that our character is prepared to handle.

The way you silence fear is to give attention to faith.

You cannot hold God hostage (to your questions). He doesn’t owe you an answer. If you want the peace that passes understanding, you’re going to have to give up your right to understanding. It’s called trust.

I firmly believe in giving back to the community.
