Lance Johnson Ministries

Relevate Church

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 with two locations in Woodstock GA and Ranger GA. He is also the founder and teacher at Lions Gate Ministry Training Academy.

The Power Within: Unleashing Your Spiritual Potential

Episode Overview

True transformation comes from the presence of the Holy Spirit.
Memorised doctrine without God's presence is ineffective.
Personal encounters with Jesus bring radical change.
Believers are called to embody and manifest God's attributes.
Faith should be lived out, not just preached.

“"It's not what you're preaching. It's what you're living."”

How do people find strength in their journey to sobriety? Bishop Lance Johnson shares a powerful message about the importance of the Holy Spirit in every believer's life. Drawing from his own experiences of overcoming addiction, Bishop Lance emphasises that true transformation doesn't come from memorised verses or systematic programs, but from the presence of the Holy Spirit within us.

He recounts biblical stories like the woman at the well and the demon-possessed man, illustrating how encounters with Jesus brought radical change without the need for formal training or religious credentials. Bishop Lance passionately argues that we often rely too much on doctrine and not enough on living examples of God's power. He challenges listeners to embody the attributes of God and to let His glory manifest through their lives.

The episode is a call to action for believers to move beyond mere words and to let their lives be a testament to the transformative power of faith. With a mix of humour and fervour, Bishop Lance urges believers to be bold in their faith, to 'release the rivers' of living water within them, and to break free from the confines of dead religion.

His message is not just about personal salvation but about being a vessel through which God can work in the world. Are you ready to let the Holy Spirit guide you in your journey?
