How do you perceive pruning? Bill Johnson brings perspective from John 15 that pruning is God's reward to growth, not His punishment. Through the parable of the vinedresser, we see how God has designed an ecosystem for increase and productivity. We are invited into fruitfulness that is a natural result from abiding in Him.

Praying for this person reading this to be filled with the peace and presence of Jesus Christ! Commanding all stress, heaviness, and anxiety to leave you, in Jesus name! Put your trust and faith in Jesus and you will overcome this situation with the help of God

Pruning is neither belittling nor punishing. It is adjustment in the value system by His Word. Thank you Jesus for this revelation. Praise the Lord from India. If it's not for covid, I wouldn't have connected with Pastor Bill and Bethel.

Pray for me. To learn and understand the gospel. That God would open the eyes of the heart. After watching the series "The Chosen", I wanted to better understand Christ and the new Testament. The grace of God the Father is with us all

God answer all prayers. “No, ” “wait” and “I have a different way” are all answers.

I absolutely love all of Bill Johnson's preaching videos. This really helped me because of the painful thorny things I have been r experiencing. It's a great reminder that my trials are not necessarily punishment, especially since I don't know what I've done wrong. Maybe it's not punishment, but maybe it's God pulling back veils that are blocking his healing nature. Praise be to God

[dorothypollak]

Invite, welcome and embrace pruning, along with what God allows to get our attention. There is nothing as glorious as the intimate relationship with Him, and the glory of what God will do when we are thoroughly pruned and conformed to the image of Christ. It’s worth EVERYTHING.

It is so important to understand our Union with Christ! We're joined to the Lord as Christians, we are one spirit with Him and we need to learn what that means and how to talk and act like who we are in Christ Jesus and be the spiritual leader that God has created us to be in Christ!
