Johnny and Tracy met at Grambling State University and married after Tracy's graduation. They have been together for more than 31 years and have truly seen the hand of God upon their lives, home and marriage. They have two natural children and a host of spiritual sons and daughters in the ministry.
By Holy Spirit's leadership, both as kings and priests, have been able to merge ministry in the market place and impact lives in various spheres and surroundings.
Johnny, with a degree in Manufacturing Engineering, has utilized his 25 plus years of experience in high level management and leadership, to run multi-billion dollar companies as well as mentor other men and women in the realm of business. His tutelage has not only increased the skillset of many others but also inspired many to embrace that sphere of influence as well.
God giving them a mandate to focus on the family has truly transformed the lives of men, women, boys and girls every where they go. Through the anointing of God, communities, married couples and families are being empowered by the Kingdom dominion that they operate in.
No ones life is ever the same after having encountered the Taylor's and the Presence of Heaven that they carry. They're generosity exceeds most as they know that God has blessed them to be a blessing.
For indeed, these two are one and they are a power force whose lives are forever yielded to their heavenly Father, God Almighty, Abba and their Lord and Master, Jesus Christ. Together they manifest kingship through the spirit of sonship ~ planting the heavens with signs and wonders to follow.
Tracy Taylor

It was there she met later to marry her kingdom partner, Johnny Taylor, Sr. They have been together now for more than 31 years and were blessed with two beautiful children, Johnny, Jr (son) and Jordan Taylor (daughter).

She has a great passion to minister, teach, and evangelize the Word of God to all ages, saved and unsaved; to inspire all to live a life unto Christ and fulfill God's perfect will. The call on her life extends into all of her activities and community commitments.

In having received such revelation, she is enabled by the Spirit of God to effectively minister to a person, to people and nations.
Her vision as a young girl has not changed in that she desired to teach people, empowering them with knowledge and changing the world she lives in. Her tenacity and perseverance to maximize her potential has become contagious to all those who's been in her presence. Her unshakeable faith in God has also made an impact on everyone that's been in her sphere of influence.
She firmly believes and often says, "what's the point of her living victoriously if she does not tell others how, and help them win also." She also says, "Jesus suffered so that we could be healed, Jesus died so that we could be redeemed and Jesus rose so that we could reign in this life as kings".
With the heart, passion and anointing of God, through His enabling, Tracy shall and will ignite the hearts of men through the love story of Jesus Christ; leading them to their ambassadorial status and God's destiny that's been ordained for their very lives.

The Love Story
There was a man who had two sons. The younger one said to his father, 'Father give me my share of the estate'. So he divided his property between them. Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything. "When he came to his senses, he said, "How many of my father's hired men have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.' So he got up and went to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.' "But the father said to his servants, 'Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found. ' So they began to celebrate. [Luke 15:11-24] NIV Likewise, God the Father is waiting for you to come to your senses and return to Him where you belong. What do you say? Heaven's waiting to celebrate, would you come and be the guest of honor? Read The Vessel below for instructions on how to R.S.V.P.
The Vessel ~ R.S.V.P
"If while we seek to be justified in Christ, it becomes evident that we ourselves are sinners, does that mean Christ promote sin? Absolutely not! If I rebuild what I destroyed, I prove that I am a lawbreaker. For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. [Galatians 2:17-20] NIV
Therefore, I urge you, brothers in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--His good, pleasing and perfect will. For by the grace given me I say to everyone of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you. [Romans 12:1-3 NIV] "While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" [Romans 5:8]
Please repeat this prayer after me, Father in the name of Jesus, I admit that I am a sinner and I repent of my sins. I ask you for forgiveness and to wash me clean. Jesus, come into my heart and flood me with your love. Father, fill me with your Holy Spirit, take my life and live through me. I surrender my will and I embrace Yours. I now belong to you and Jesus is my Savior and Lord of my breakthrough. In Jesus' name, AMEN! Hallelujah, welcome to the family of GOD! Email us your name. Let's celebrate by telling others what you've just done and let's celebrate over what God is about to do through you! Your going to love it, He's so good at being GOD!
