Lance Johnson Ministries

Lance Johnson Ministries

Lance Johnson comes by way of a life of struggles having been trapped by the unrelenting grip of alcohol and drug addiction and the desperate life style that comes with it. He brings a fresh word that is woven into the fabric of a life that has known the agony of an empty soul. One early fall day in September of 1990 he had an encounter with the King of Kings that not only changed him but has eternally altered the lives of thousands that now proclaim along with him that “When Jesus sets you free you are completely free”. Pastor Lance now reaches into depths of his experience to deliver a starkly real story of freedom by the power of God. Now he only looks back to encourage those that are lagging behind. He has spent almost a quarter of a century rescuing people from a background of death and ruin and introducing them to a life of prosperity and liberty. Lance has pioneered addiction recovery ministries as well as numerous churches. He has planted bible colleges and overseas mission works, thereby reaching people from every walk of life and social background. He has introduced vast numbers of people to a victorious, overcoming lifestyle. He is currently the founder and Senior Pastor of Relevate Church in Ranger GA. He is also the founder and teacher at Lions Gate Ministry Training Academy.

We often think obedience is about following rules, but it's really about trusting God. Every time we choose His way over our own, we're saying, "Lord, I believe You know what's best." Jesus said to seek God's kingdom first, and everything else would be added. That's not a promise of an easy life; it's a promise that God takes care of those who put Him first. In today’s Message, Bishop Lance reminds us that obedience isn't a b...

Sometimes the biggest thing holding us back isn't what we lack; it's what we've learned to believe. We start believing we'll never have enough, never be enough, or never become what God has called us to be because that's all we've ever known. But God isn't asking us to live by our past, our upbringing, or even other people's expectations. In today’s message, Bishop Lance reminds us that before God changes our circumstances, H...

Sin should have no part in the life of a Christian. Once you give your life to Christ, you're a new creation, set free from the bondage of sin and death. It's been washed from your life, and you can live righteously for God. But, as Bishop Lance will tell you in today's message, sin is not powerless. When you go back to it, it will start to work in your life to bring undue suffering and separate you from God. But no matter what the...

Jesus made a way for you to be forgiven of every sin and shortcoming in your life.

Think about a chocolate fountain; nothing can come out of it until something is put into it. There cannot be a steady flow of chocolate unless there’s enough in it to keep it going. The same goes for faith; putting nothing into it will dry it out.

In comic books, superheroes exist. But just because there’s someone who can champion for you doesn’t change the fact that crime happens.
