Lance Johnson Ministries

Have you ever tried your hand at pottery? If you have, you know it's not as easy as it appears. The clay has a unique consistency—soft, pliable, and easily bendable. In the same way, we are the clay in our relationship with God. Just like raw clay, we are unformed and delicate, prone to breaking under pressure. But here's the comforting truth: God is a gentle craftsman who patiently shapes our lives into what He envisions. Today, Bishop Lance encourages you to allow God to mold you into the person He calls you to be.

Do you have something in your life that you struggle with? Is there something inside you that feels heavy? Are you tired of being burdened by the issues that trouble you? In today’s message, Bishop Lance wants you to know that there is only one person who can free you from your chains, and His name is Jesus Christ. When you give your life to Him and lay out all of your sins, troubles, and burdens, Jesus Christ will set you free—but only if you place your faith in Him!

We live in a world that often seems backwards, where what is wrong is labeled as right, and what is right is sometimes dismissed. And when we stay there for a while, we may begin to adopt these views and apply them to our relationship with God. When our beliefs conflict with what the Bible teaches, and we still choose to follow our own ideas, we create a version of God in our own image. Today, Bishop Lance encourages us to put our faith in the teachings of Jesus Christ and to allow Him to transform our hearts.

We live in a world where everyone has access to technology and can easily see the latest headlines as soon as they come in. Can you imagine what it must be like to be a child in the year 2025? In today’s message, Bishop Lance encourages you to pay attention to the younger generation and to understand the struggles they face. It’s important for them to know that they are not alone in this vast and sometimes frightening world. There is someone who loves them dearly—Jesus Christ, who gave His life for them on the cross.

At times in our journey with Christ, we may lose sight of the bigger picture. When we find ourselves asking, “What now?” it can be easy to overlook the true essence of ministry. That’s why, in today’s message, Bishop Lance encourages us to refocus on the Gospel of Jesus. He invites us to examine Jesus’ life, embrace His teachings, and minister to His flock just as He did. As we follow Jesus and study His teachings, we can genuinely minister and serve others in the same way He serves us.

Some positions in the church have gone too far…some churches have even gone too far. People get so laser-focused on growth in numbers for their church that they completely lose sight of what really matters…Jesus! In today’s message, Bishop Lance will ask you to take a close look at your church. Are you attending because it’s fun or because you love Jesus? Do other people visit because it’s a nice building and they have free child care, or because they are on fire for God and want more?!

We’ve all heard the phrase, “actions speak louder than words,” but did you know that that is biblical?! Jesus has been teaching that since the Garden, and He is still trying to teach it to Christians in the church now. In today’s message, Bishop Lance will show you exactly how words have been hurting the church and how you can take action and represent Jesus better! People will always be more judgmental of the church and Christians, so it is imperative that we do our very best to reflect Him!

Jesus died so we could live life and live it abundantly! That is a comfort we can’t even comprehend. Yet, we can still take it for granted. In today’s message, Bishop Lance will encourage you to see how you can sacrifice your own life for Jesus. There are so many ways that Christians alike can waste that precious sacrifice. Whether that is spending more time on your phone than you are in the Bible or even putting your family above God, or whatever it may be for you…how are you going to honor God by sacrificing?

Jesus was and forever will be more concerned with quality over quantity. He proved that over and over while He was on Earth. Just look at the disciples; there were only twelve! There could have been so many, and yet He chose to have a deep relationship with those twelve. In today’s message, Bishop Lance will remind you that when it comes to your church, God cares about the quality of those individual relationships over the sheer mass of people you have attending every week.

As Christians, it is WAY easier to blame other people and judge other people before we even consider looking at our own lives. In today’s message, Bishop Lance will highly encourage you to stop and look at your own actions…or inactions, for that matter. What are you allowing in your life? What are you, or who are you allowing yourself to be influenced by? There are many people who will play the blame game but never take an honest look at themselves…so, what is your response to responsibility for sin?!

God does forgive us of our sins…but that does NOT mean we can just go on and willingly sin against God and then just ask for forgiveness later. In today’s message, Bishop Lance will share how YOU need to change the way you look at sin in your life! God loves you, and He warns you against sin to protect you from the dangers that it WILL bring. He doesn’t tell you not to do something just to ruin your fun, He tells you not to do it because He can see the dangers that it will bring in the future.

As a new believer, you may have this fireball of passion inside you to serve Jesus. However, the unique path you choose to serve God can sometimes lead you a bit off-course, pulling you away from that close connection with Him. Today, Bishop Lance shares insights on why having spiritual guidance is essential for every believer. It’s fascinating how easily one can be led astray by the whispers of deception. Finding and embracing the right guidance can keep you aligned with your passion for serving Jesus!

Many Christians hold the opinion that salvation revolves around Jesus rescuing you from your sins and guiding you back toward the heavenly path. But have you considered how it also brings some responsibilities your way? In today’s message, Bishop Lance shares an inspiring message about your calling as a believer in Christ and how you can serve Him. Jesus wants you to share the amazing news of the gospel and guide others on their journey back to Him so they can embrace eternal life!

You might feel a sense of relief knowing that you’re shielded from any sort of spiritual battles out there. But have you ever thought about whether you're truly thriving and moving forward in your spiritual connection with God? You might think that simply reading your Bible is all it takes to build your strength. But is that really the case? Today, Bishop Lance shares insights on the importance of applying the Word of God to your life and why it truly matters. You can be a living example of God’s Word!

It’s easy to believe that once you’ve found salvation, you can kick back and enjoy life, feeling secure in the knowledge that God has already taken care of everything for you. But have you ever paused to consider how often you express your gratitude for the incredible sacrifice Jesus made for you? Today, Bishop Lance shares the exciting news about how you’ve been called for a special purpose. Jesus seeks that others can find their way to salvation through you. How can you start making an impact in God’s kingdom?

You might come across a diverse group of feminists passionately advocating for their equality alongside men. But did you know that God intentionally created women just the way they are? Today, Bishop Lance dives into the ins and outs of marriage. God created man and woman to work together as a team. They go hand in hand, each one missing something without the other. A couple can lift each other during life's tough moments. That's the secret to getting strong—by joining forces!

As a Christian, you may often find yourself embracing a straightforward life, focusing on your own path and goals. But have you ever thought about the idea that God has a special purpose just for you? And that you’re accountable to Him for what you do? In today’s message, Bishop Lance is going to share how God has uniquely called you for His purpose. When you embrace salvation, it's like God breathes new life into you. He hopes you'll decide to serve Him in the way He truly wants you to.

A true spiritual mentor doesn’t just teach you to build a ministry—he builds you up to lead others. Today, Bishop Lance speaks on the role of spiritual mentors who shape our lives, not just through titles or positions, but by guiding us to live in godly character. A real mentor will help you become the spouse, parent, and leader God calls you to be, with your finances, faith, and integrity in order. Ministry goes beyond the pulpit and microphone; it’s a life rooted in a rich relationship and purpose in God.

Have you experienced the closeness of truly knowing Jesus? It’s in that quiet, hidden place that we encounter His love in a way that changes everything. Today, Bishop Lance invites us to fall deeply in love with the One who pulls us from brokenness and sets us on solid ground. When we see all He’s brought us through, He deserves not just casual faith but wholehearted devotion. Let this be the day you go after Him with your whole heart. Draw near and experience the fullness of His presence!

Our children are growing up in a culture that pulls them in every direction but toward Christ. Today, Bishop Lance challenges parents to make Christ a priority in the home, not just in church. Raising kids in church is important, but they need to see Christ modeled daily—by mom and dad, not just Sunday school. If you’re a parent, take back your role as your children’s spiritual guide, and show them that Jesus isn’t just part of your life, but at the center of everything you do. The next generation depends on it.
