PROPHET GIANNIS
The man of God Giannis Michaelidis is the head of the Christian Church Of All Nations – Athens. He was born on June 24, 1994, in Galatades, a small village outside the town of Giannitsa in Greece. Born into a Christian family that did everything possible to teach him the way of the Lord, at an early age he acquired a deep and unwavering faith, which stemmed from a pure love for God’s Word. Since he was very young, he found comfort and guidance in the teachings of the Bible, which in turn led him to a lifelong quest for guidance and spiritual growth.
Young Giannis, while reading the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, was filled with a strong desire to have a mentor, just as the disciples had Jesus Christ as their mentor. In his heart he knew that he wanted to do God’s work. However, life still had many lessons to teach him until he reached his divine calling.
In the course to his adult life, and specifically from the age of 14, he was engaged in various jobs, either occasionally in the summer for pocket money as a young boy or for longer periods of time as an adult later on. Nevertheless, no work seemed to fill young Giannis with satisfaction, and certainly none of them seemed to be his future…
He studied car engineering in Thessaloniki where he had moved to at the age of 18 and worked on what he had studied. In fact, he even opened his own garage. However, although he was interested in car engineering, he was sure that this was not his calling, it was not what he was meant to do.
The landmark in his life, and in his later career in general, was when he saw for the first time in a video, the power of God working through Prophet T. B. Joshua! It was the first time he saw the fire of the Holy Spirit working in the spirit, just as he used to read in the Word of God. As if that was not enough, to his great surprise, he found out that one of the disciples of this great Prophet was a Greek man named Charalambos Tsakonidis, who is now well-known to all of us as man of God Harry! God’s divine plan for Giannis’ life had already began to unfold and God’s fire was burning with even greater intensity within him!
Together with a small group of believers at an estate that belonged to a family of believers in Naoussa, Imathia, Greece, they used to gather weekly to watch the Sunday Service of the Synagogue, Church Of All Nations in Lagos, Nigeria, through its television station, Emmanuel TV. Until something “disturbed” his so far quiet life! The man of God Harry, who was then in Nigeria, under the mentorship of Prophet T. B. Joshua announced through the church’s channel that he is going to come to Greece, to Thessaloniki, to start his ministry!
After this announcement nothing seemed to matter to Giannis anymore, since the only thing that interested him now was to become a disciple of the man of God Harry! In the five years that followed until the man of God Harry’s arrival, Giannis finished his studies, worked as an engineer in garages, started studying something new that had to do with secretary duties and worked as a secretary at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. In 2015, man of God Harry came to Thessaloniki and founded the Synagogue, Church Of All Nations Thessalonica, as it was then called; which now goes by the name Christian Church Of All Nations – Thessalonica. It was high time for young Giannis to make the great life decision! The big decision was to give up everything, carry his cross, and follow the Lord without alternatives or distractions (Matthew 16:24).
So, when the church started in Thessaloniki, Giannis was no longer willing to work or do anything that had nothing to do with God and His Kingdom. So, he quit his job at the University, he quit his studies midway and began his discipleship under the man of God Harry.
After 9 years of discipleship – training and investment to cultivate a character of Christ, God revealed His glory in Giannis’ life and called him to work for Him with signs and wonders. Giannis, a man of God now, is a living example that proves that the first step in knowing your calling is to get to know God better by reading His Word.. He is now a channel of blessing where there is poverty, a channel of light where there is darkness, a channel of healing where there is sickness and a channel of freedom where there is bondage. God continues to take unlikely people and puts them into His palace for eternity. all He requires is that we be not perfect but available to do His work.
