What does it look like to mourn with hope? After a long battle with cancer, Beni Johnson, Bill Johnson's wife, went to be with Jesus on July 13, 2022. She is now fully alive and free.
Just a few days following Beni's passing, Bill Johnson shares this honest message on dealing with pain and loss, and the importance of grieving with hope. In times of grief, though our mind wants answers to many questions, what we really need is to be close to the Person of Jesus who comforts, loves us so much, and understands all things.

It amazes me that in the middle of his great loss, his grip on the Lord is so strong that he can encourage the rest of us to also reach for Jesus in times of loss. One of the most anointed messages I've heard him preach. May God bless Him and all of Bethel with the greatest revelations of our Lord's love and comfort in Jesus' name.

I think that this will go down as one of the most powerful sermons in history.

Bill has set the standard. No compromise. No idols. Fully devoted to Jesus.

I lost my wife of 28 years 14 months ago to cancer after a 13 mo fight. Its a mystery why we didn't see the healing, but I know she is supremely blessed in his presence right now, and I know that my children and I will see Him work good out of it for us. She is not cold, still, and done like her old physical tent, but right this second she is more ALIVE than any of us have ever been on this earth, more intelligent, more full of grace and love, more full of joy, no hindrances, no ambiguity. This is what Beni and Leslie are experiencing right now - more alive and at peace than we are. We who are in Christ will go to them and enjoy eternal friendship that is even better than the highest of marriages here on earth. Thank you Jesus for all that you have in store for us THEN, but also for the heaven we have yet to bring to earth on this side.

If there was ever a perfect example of the coupling of our humanity walking out pain in the presence of Jesus, this is it. Thank you, Pastor Bill. 🙏 🙌❤️

I just lost my little brother to overdose. My heart feels like it has a large gaping hole. I don’t know how to process this valley, this pain is so foreign. The enemy is at work trying his hardest to detour my heart. So thank you for this message of hope. I am clinging to the fringes of HIS robe, so He can use my pain for His glory. Thank you Jesus.

REMARKABLE. What an EXTREME price Bill and Beni must have paid for him to be able to deliver a message like this. ❤️ ❤️

After watching "Breaking the Bread of My Soul" twice, I felt strongly lead to get this into the hands of my 2 Christian friends in prison. They can't receive video or audio files so I had to edit the KZfaq auto-transcript and email it to them through JPay. Just heard back from both of them and it's had miraculous effect! It has been circulating throughout the pod, changing hearts, starting conversations, glorifying God. Thank you Jesus! Thank you Bill!

My wife asked me this morning how Bill’s wife is doing, and I said I wasn’t sure then this afternoon I learned of the news. Our hearts go out to the entire Johnson family. I pray that that Father God and our precious Lord embraces Bill with their merciful love and showers him with Their peace blessings my brother in the Lord

We have been praying over Pastor Bill for this message. That there would be strength and wisdom for the words. This is leading from the frontline and showing Christians what it should look like ,even in a time of mourning, that we have hope.

Bill, you have served God so faithfully and He will surely see you through and he will show you his faithfulness. A wound for one is a wound for all. Trust me, we feel your pain and we are with you in this and we will continue to pray for you and family. We love you Bill.

We are in a war, and in warfare some are lost in the battle for a multitude of reasons. Some of greatest number of casualties in warfare are due to disease. Some are due to the enemy, some are self-inflicted, some are taken prisoner, some are grievously wounded, some are just in the wrong place at the wrong time. But those who are alive and well must press on not forgetting the loss, but in honor of the loss to continue the battle. This why many wounded soldiers are so adamant to return to the fight. Mourning has its own healing balm; it's called Love that's greater than loss.

Pastor Bill, our 16 year old daughter passed away the same day as Beni. This sermon came right on time in the middle of our grief. We needed to hear this, Beni’s passing led to this sermon and we know that God is already using her life to bless ours. Thank you for getting on that stage, even though it was hard. Thank you for giving us hope 🙏

I am living in Austria and I know Bill only from media like KZfaq or his books. When I heard about his loss, I broke in tears ... I can't explain that but I love this guy as he is part of my own family. Bill, your life, messages, books and revelations have changed my life. Without you I won't be there where I am now.

Bill, having lost my late wife BJ to a 4 year battle with liver failure in 2010, having lost my first wife to a very much unwanted and painful divorce in 1992, having list my only two children to miscarriage in 2012 and 2013, and having list my mom to colon and liver cancer in 2003, and having seen God miraculous work time and time again to lead me faithfully through those valleys of the shadow of death, I am saddened for you, yet I know beyond doubt the Lord will comfort you in similar fashion to how He has comforted me! God bless you my brother!!!

Yesterday my closest uncle's funeral, who died for cancer. 💔 I know i cannot talk to my brother Bill, but Bill, thank you so much for your faith, for this message and for all that you are doing for, in and with Jesus. I am terribly sorry for Beni.... i still cry everyday for my uncle, i just cant imagine, truly, what it is at your place.............. but we know they are not dead, they are still alive. More than ever before. A big hug from Italy, full of comfort, in Jesus, our Lord and friend. Love you so much. We keep staying united to Jesus as never before.
