The believer's walk of faith is paid for by Bill Winston Ministries partners and viewers.
Bill Winston
Hello, Bill Winston here. I come to announce the fact that you're moving up. Praise God. It's called moving up to 4D. 4D stands for the fourth dimension. It's another dimension above the three dimensional world. Time, space, matter, that's where most people live and the enemy is God of that world. But if you can move up to 4D, that's where believers belong. We can dominate anything in treaty reverse anything that the devil has done. God is no longer coming down and interested in confirming who you were. No, no, no, no, no. Now he's raising you up to where you are destined to be. You see, a lot of times people.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Well, Jesus come back again and help and so forth and so on.
Bill Winston
No, he's been here. He's seated at the right hand of the Father now. He wants you to come up and be who you've been destined to be. And this book will help you get there. You better get it. It's called Moving up to 4D. Powerful book. God bless you. Keep walking by faith.

Up next on the believer's block of faith.
Main Speaker / Preacher
God can fix every problem in a day. I said God can fix every problem in a day. One more time. God can fix every problem in a day.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
He can fix financial problems, he can fix healing problems. He can fix deliverance problems. He can fix marriage problems. He can fix children's problems. He can fix problems with your landlord. He can fix problems. Come on now. In a day, in Jesus name.
Main Speaker / Preacher
This anointing is all powerful. Say all powerful. Now there's this anointing. Is God's power coming on human flesh to do what only God can do? Say Amen to that. So when I'm saying it's all powerful, that means that it's nothing going to be too hard for you. Now you got to realize that it's not you, it's the anointing on you. Jesus said, it's the Father in me, he does the work. Now remember what they said about Jesus in Luke chapter 4 and verse 18 and 19. The spirit of the Lord is a what upon me because he's anointed me to what? Preach. See, you don't need to get in any way jealous of me preaching because it's the anointing on me. So when I come up with things and so forth, I am not getting no proud thing in my heart. It's going back and saying, look, how do people look at me? And so forth. No, no, no. See that you lose the anointing. Messing around with that. What you got to realize is that you want to hold fast to that anointing. Paul talked about. The love of Christ constrains me. Now, what does Christ mean? The anointing One and his anointing. So the love of the anointing keeps me from talking about you. See, because what you can do through that, you can grieve the Holy Spirit. Why? Because he wants you to be one. He doesn't want you to be a gap finder. He wants you to be a gap stander. He wants you to help people versus running them down. And some people lose that anointing so that they can't get debts paid. They can't get so forth. Why? Because they're busy running down somebody. You need to put a watch over your mouth in Jesus name. Are you following what I'm saying here? You can't do that and expect that anointing to flow like that. So this power, and it's all power that's flowing. He said in Acts, chapter 1 8, you shall receive what power? That's miracle working ability. Say I have the anointing and miracle working abilities. In Jesus name. Amen. We're talking about faith for the flow. Say faith for the flow. Now, y' all sometimes holler out, flow. Okay, all right. Faith for the flow. Now, in this, you add a man named Gideon. And Gideon over in Judges, chapter six and verse 15, you know, Gideon talked about what his condition was. He talked about it. And we have that. If you put it on the board. Ready, read.
Reader / Scripture Reader
Gideon said to him, me, my Master, how and with what could I ever save Israel?
Main Speaker / Preacher
Look at me.
Reader / Scripture Reader
My plans. The weakest in Manassa, and I'm the runt of the litter.
Main Speaker / Preacher
All right, now. Now Gideon is saying, hey, how are you going to use me? Now, why is he saying that? Look at Judges, chapter 6, verse 12 and 13. Ready, read.
Reader / Scripture Reader
And the angel of the Lord appeared unto him and said unto him, the Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valor.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Now this is what the angel called him. He called him a mighty man of valor. And Gideon is busy putting himself down. Now, what am I trying to bring out there? Faith is meant to work for royalty. Faith is a servant sent from God. I'm just characterizing faith now, but it's used to working for one who is righteous, who is one. That is royalty, not. The Bible says all unrighteousness is sin. Now, I remember going to God one night. I think I told you about this in Minnesota. We were trying to start that little church. And that Saturday night, I'm trying to get a word from God. And I started crying about it. And God, the people need a word, you know, trying to con God. And so God said, what are you doing? I mean, I heard it clearly. I said, I'm trying to get a word. He said, how do you come before me? I said, come boldly to the throne of grace. Well, look over here in Proverbs, chapter 28 and verse 1, ready read.
Reader / Scripture Reader
The wicked flee when no man pursue it. But the righteous are bold as a lion.
Main Speaker / Preacher
You got what I'm saying? The way you get something from God is not crying about it. Now, God understands tears. But I'm saying for you to get faith to feel flow and you to get the anointing of God to flow through you, you're gonna have to get some boldness from somewhere. I said, you're gonna have to get some boldness from somewhere. And I'm telling you, the bolder you are, the more that faith will flow like a flood. Now I'm saying boldness with the word. Now I'm not saying acting ignorant in boldness. I'm talking about boldness with the word. Cause you can bold, be bold and carjack somebody. But that's not the kind of boldness I'm talking about. I'm talking about in line with the word of God. Be bold, be bold, don't be weak. And you know, can I talk? I don't like this weakness thing is bothering me.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
It is.
Main Speaker / Preacher
You can tell when people are weak. They can't hardly get their words out. Men say it.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
You know what I'm saying?
Main Speaker / Preacher
It's stuttering and carrying on. Come on, this stuff works for a king.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
It works for a person who realizes.
Main Speaker / Preacher
That it's not me, it's the one that dwells in me. If Jesus said, I'm going to heaven, but I'll be back and I'll be in you, say amen. You got the whole godhead in you. You should be bold as a six shooter, as they used to say.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
I'm just saying this weakness stuff won't make it, folks.
Main Speaker / Preacher
That's why the enemy has gained ground.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
A lot of stuff.
Main Speaker / Preacher
The church has been weak.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Now, when that happens, faith doesn't flow. When faith doesn't flow, you don't access God's solutions. And when you don't access God's solutions.
Main Speaker / Preacher
You then you can't help humanity.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Because what's got to help humanity is.
Main Speaker / Preacher
A miracle that you cannot.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Your ability to fix the problems Today.
Main Speaker / Preacher
On the level that they were created are gone. You can't do it. You're going to have to go to another level. Say 4D. You won't have to go to 4D and you can get an answer. Man said, what shall I do for black male youth, Chicago? I said, sir, I don't know what you can do right now. You give me seven days, I'll come back with an answer. I didn't hem and haw and, well, you know, and start sliding and, well, you know.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
That's not you. That's a demon and you need to.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Get rid of it. If the shoe fits, you wear it. I ain't backing off. If anything, I'll add something to it. No, you can't sympathize with that stuff. God has compassion, not sympathy. It's not in that Bible. Well, I'm sorry. That ain't in the Bible. That's not in there. Speak.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Something wrong?
Main Speaker / Preacher
I apologize. No, I'm sorry. You sorry?
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Then you speaking stuff over yourself.
Main Speaker / Preacher
I'm sorry.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Are you following what I'm saying? I'm not gonna ease up because we're.
Main Speaker / Preacher
In a war right now. We're in a war.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
We gonna win. We win.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Read the back of the book. The kingdoms of this world are going to become the kingdoms of our God and of this Christ. And we shall reign forever and ever. Say Amen to that. No, you got to decree a thing. I'll be back in seven days with an answer. God told me, I want you to go and read this to the mayor. That's when we couldn't come in the building, bought the place and couldn't have a service in it. Why? Because they just voted the council that you can't have a service. Now we're locked out. You tell me, what is the natural fix to that? I asked somebody. Well, you gotta have to take them to court. I said, how long is that going to take? That'll take about five years.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Five years?
Main Speaker / Preacher
I got to be in there tomorrow night. Now, what you're telling me, five years?
Co-Speaker / Assistant
You following what I'm saying?
Main Speaker / Preacher
God can fix every problem in a day. He can fix financial problems.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
He can fix healing problems. He can fix deliverance problems. He can fix marriage problems. He can fix children's problems. He can fix problems with your landlord. He can fix problems.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Come on, now. In a day, in Jesus name. Okay, Gideon. So first he had to destroy a tree and plant new seed because Gideon saw himself a certain way. And when you see yourself a certain way, that's a tree and it's got to be plucked up. And Jesus said over In Matthew, chapter 15, verse 13, he said, Every tree in you that the Father's not planted. Come on. Shall be what shall be rooted out. Gideon had a tree of inferiority, of the fact that he's not as good as other people, and so forth. And I'm saying all of that, you got to get rid of. I said, you got to get rid of it. See, here's the deal on that. You don't attract what you want, you attract what you are. And when you have a certain image inside, then the resources that God has for you and the things that God has positioned for you, that image won't let you see them. And what you got to do is say, I got to change that image. Other than that, I'm going to sabotage my pathway. I'm going to sabotage my life. And that's what a lot of people are doing. They hooking up with the wrong person because they never change the image into the right person. Then they get hooked up again, and they'll do it over and over again. I'm not talking about nobody. I'm not running down nobody. I'm just making it strong. Say training for reigning in Jesus name. See, I'm being trained right now.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Say amen to that.
Main Speaker / Preacher
I don't think any Christian should be broke. Not a single believer should be broke. And I don't think it's the money problem. I think it's the image problem.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Say amen.
Main Speaker / Preacher
So if I can work on your image, you can break through some things that you never broke through before.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Say Amen. See, that faith has got to work.
Main Speaker / Preacher
And for the faith to work, you got to have an image, right? The image of righteousness. Righteous are as bold. Come on. As a lion. And that's where you're going to be. All right? And look what happened to Esther. Now Esther has been put in the temple for such a time. Come on. As this. You've been born in the earth for such a time as this.
Bill Winston
All right?
Main Speaker / Preacher
This is your time, all right? But when it's at this time and all of a sudden wicked Haman has talked the king into genocide and killing all the Jews. Well, Esther is in there in the palace, and she's been positioned. And. But Mordecai said, that's to go in there and petition the king that he would not destroy the Jews. Esther said, well, no, I can't start, you know, backstepping. You know, I can't do that because, you know, the. The king didn't invite us in there and so forth. And he said, esther, let me tell you something, girl. If you don't go in, now, can I put it just in my word, if you don't go in there, God is going to choose somebody else. He's going to deliver some other way, but you and your house is going to be torn apart. I'm putting in no more words, okay? And then Esther decided to fast. So she fasted three days. And then at that three day point, something came alive inside of Esther. And over In Esther, chapter 5, verse 1 through 3, Esther put on her royal apparel. She put on her best stuff. Why? Because you are royalty. I said, you are royalty. And she put on her best stuff. When she put on her best stuff. Now, Esther started moving towards the palace and I could see they opened the door for Esther, Esther to just walk right on in. Now when Esther walked in like that, it's because there was an anointing on Esther. There's an anointing on Esther. There was an anointing on Esther that was going to turn the king's heart. The Bible said the heart of the king is where in the hand of the Lord. And he'll turn it, what, whichever way he wants to. So when you go into that supervisor or you go going to these owners and so forth, know that you don't.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Have to go in there with hat.
Main Speaker / Preacher
In hand begging for something. Your days are begging for anything. They're gone. They're gone. Esther came in there. He pointed that scepter at Esther. Esther touches Esther. Whatever it is that you want, you can have it up to half of my kingdom, man, that's big. Say big. And next thing you know, Esther didn't just blurt out, well, wicked Haman, no, she used the anointing of wisdom. She invited them over for chicken dinner or something, whatever it was.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
And am I right about that?
Main Speaker / Preacher
And next thing you know, Haman was hanged in the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Say Amen to that. So whoever's after you will fall into the trap that they have set.
Main Speaker / Preacher
I'm decreeing it right now.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Whoever's after you will fall into the.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Pit that they have set up for.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
You in the name of Jesus.
Main Speaker / Preacher
All right, so next over in the New Testament, I'm talking about the flow now. Say flow. All right, here's a woman with the issue of blood. That's over in Mark, chapter five. And this woman began to heed the Bible, says she heard Jesus. Well, what do you think she heard about Him. What do you think she heard about him? Come on. He was what? He was anointed. He was a miracle worker.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
And she said, if I can just. Come on. Help me touch his clothes. Come on. I will be whole. See, all you need with the anointing is a touch.
Main Speaker / Preacher
All you need with the anointing is a touch.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
And when that touch comes, everything that.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Is not of God's got to let you go.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
She touched Jesus.
Main Speaker / Preacher
And the Bible says, virtue flows.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Watch this. He's walking this way, and she's coming up behind him. She didn't ask him, could I touch you? No, you can just touch. I said, take it by faith. And she took it by faith. Drove out everything.
Main Speaker / Preacher
See, that's what he testified about.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
All of a sudden, all his cartilages.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Were back in his knees.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Say amen. I'm saying, God will remove burdens. Whatever's troubling you is about to be removed right now in the name of Jesus. Glory to God. Don't think I'm just teaching on this.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Because it's a coincidence.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
I'm teaching on this because you're going into a place where you're going to be burden free. Yoke free in the name of Jesus. Now sit down.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Well, that anointing get on you, but.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
I'm telling you now.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Second Kings, chapter two. Here is Elisha, following behind his mentor, Elijah. And Elijah said, what can I do for you? He said, I want a double portion of what you got. Watch this. Watch this. This is what he said. This is what he said. This is what Elijah said. You know, you just asked a hard thing. Listen, listen. I used to think that he didn't want him to ask a hard thing. No, God wants you to ask as.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Hard as you can ask.
Main Speaker / Preacher
He wants you. Come on.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
He wants you to make a request.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Of him that is hard for you to believe. Go to the end of your faith.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Say something. Tomorrow morning, I'll have money in this pocketbook, you know. Go. Go as far as you can. Speak in the name of Jesus.
Main Speaker / Preacher
All right, let me just finish up here.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Y' all getting something out of this. Say I'm anointed in the name of Jesus.
Main Speaker / Preacher
All right. So women had to flow and men had to flow. How about the church had the church flowing. Say Amen to that.
Bill Winston
And he.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Here is Acts, chapter 2. And the Bible says, the anointing came on the church. And when it came in on the church, the church spoke with other tongues. Are you following what I'm saying? I'm saying if you don't have the baptism in the Holy Spirit yet. You get it tonight. You don't leave here without the baptism in the Holy Ghost. That's the power part. See, getting saved is within experience, but getting the anointing is within the upon experience. It's coming on human flesh to do what only God can do.
Bill Winston
Receiving the anointed, how do you receive it?
Main Speaker / Preacher
Mark 11:24.
Bill Winston
This works for anything of God.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Ready? Read.
Reader / Scripture Reader
Therefore I say unto you what things soever ye desire when ye pray, believe that ye receive them and ye shall have them.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Isn't that something? Whatever you desire when you pray, believe you've received them, and you shall have them. Let's go real quick. We're just about over. Let's go to Deuteronomy, chapter 34 and verse 9. Moses is about to get out of there.
Bill Winston
Now watch what happened?
Main Speaker / Preacher
Ready? Read.
Reader / Scripture Reader
And Joshua, the son of nun, was full of the spirit of wisdom, for Moses had laid his hands upon him.
Main Speaker / Preacher
Now watch Joshua, Now Joshua, chapter one and verse 16 and 17. Joshua, chapter one, verse 16 and verse 16 and 17.
Reader / Scripture Reader
And they answered Joshua saying, all that thou commandest us, we will do. And whensoever thou sended us, we will go according. As we hearken unto Moses in all things, so will we hearken unto thee. Only the Lord thy God be with thee.
Main Speaker / Preacher
As he was with Moses, was he with him? As he was with Moses? Absolutely. Why? Because of the anointing. And over in First Samuel. And First Samuel, chapter 16 and verse 13, this is when Samuel came and poured the oil on David.
Bill Winston
Let me ask you.
Main Speaker / Preacher
David had to receive it. How? Think about it. You got to receive it by faith. I can pour oil on you until you just drink, Sino, but somewhere you got to receive that. This. This anointing just came on me. Say amen and then step out in it. I said, step out in it. Then you got to believe this. That anointing was on me. And when he said, now go read Romans, chapter 5, verse, chapter 13, verse 1 through 5 to the mayor. I had to believe I heard God. Didn't I have to believe I heard him when I went up there and read that thing? And the mayor went, oh, whoa. What? Something happened. Her face changed and everything. Why them big angels was. I know what was happening. Now let me tell you something. Do you believe more in the boogeyman or more in angels? In the name of Jesus, now I decree as you have said, that tonight, from now on, you're going to believe more in angels than you are in what can come at you. What can. Come on now.
Co-Speaker / Assistant
Angels are with you right now. Big ones, big ones, big ones. And their orders are not to let anything touch you.
Bill Winston
Hello, this is Bill Winston. I just want to give a shout out to all my partners and all those who have been supporting our ministry. You've been watching this ministry. It's been a blessing to you. Thank you so much for being my partner. I'm telling you over in Philippians chapter one, verse seven, he talks about, I have you in my heart and that's where I do. I go overseas to the different nations and I think about my partners. As a matter of fact, we try to make a little video for our partners a lot. And also I want you to know that you're particular of my grace that when I didn't have much as a beginning new startup ministry, I remember I partnered with people who were really doing it big in terms of ministry and my ministry began to supernaturally grow. Now I know that God was behind it all, but I'm saying there's a benefit to partnership and that a lot of times you have a need, you sow a seed and this is rich soil. Look at the people in the nation that are getting saved. I, I tell you, it's just a blessing. We went to South Africa. I think about 300 people got saved. I don't know, some big number, some huge number of people came to Christ. But it's just what we're doing is we're doing the work of the kingdom, preaching the gospel of the kingdom all over the world and you're helping us to do it. If you're looking at this broadcast and you are not a partner, I'd like you to consider being one. Ask the Lord what should you do? And he says, yes, we welcome you aboard. It's a train that's moving fast and we want you to get on board. Praise God. Well, this is Bill Winston saying to all of our partners, those who are supporting the ministry and those who are being blessed by it, I want to say we love you and keep walking by faith.

Host: Bill Winston Ministries
Episode Date: January 12, 2025
This episode, “The Image of Righteousness - Training for Reigning in 4D,” centers on empowering believers to rise above limitations and live in the “4D”—a spiritual dimension of authority and victory over worldly problems. Bill Winston and co-speakers unpack the biblical concept of righteousness and the key role of the believer’s self-image, boldness, and anointing in manifesting God’s solutions here and now. Through biblical examples and direct teaching, listeners are challenged to renew their mindset, walk in boldness, and operate in the supernatural for transformative results in every area of life.
On Stepping Up Spiritually:
“If you can move up to 4D, that's where believers belong. We can dominate anything...reverse anything that the devil has done.”
– Bill Winston [00:07]
On Boldness and Weakness:
“The righteous are bold as a lion.”
– Scripture quotation [07:22]
“This weakness stuff won't make it, folks...That's why the enemy has gained ground. The church has been weak.”
– Main Speaker / Preacher & Co-Speaker / Assistant [09:08–09:16]
On Image and Attraction:
“You don't attract what you want, you attract what you are.”
– Main Speaker / Preacher [12:03]
On Receiving from God:
“The way you get something from God is not crying about it. Now, God understands tears. But I'm saying for you to get faith to flow and you to get the anointing of God to flow through you, you're gonna have to get some boldness from somewhere.”
– Main Speaker / Preacher [07:27]
On Asking Big:
“God wants you to ask as hard as you can ask...Go to the end of your faith.”
– Main Speaker / Preacher [20:18–20:22]
Memorable takeaway:
“Say, I’m being trained for reigning in Jesus’ name. See, I’m being trained right now.” (Main Speaker / Preacher [13:52])
