A Tribute to Seer Prophet Bob Jones - James W. Goll, Encounters Network


A Tribute to Seer Prophet Bob Jones

From the Desk of James W. Goll

On February 14th, 2014, Valentine's Day, heaven gave a shout as Bob Jones, prophetic Papa to many a friend of Jesus, graduated from this earthbound life, sprouted wings, and flew through the OPEN DOOR. After all, this is the Year of the Open Door! How fitting for this giant to ascend on the day set aside to express love. He is now forever joined with his first love - Jesus.

I first met Bob Jones during Mike Bickle's infamous Joel's Army 21 Fast in May of 1983 in Kansas City, Missouri. I had already prayed for ten years for the School of the Prophets to come forth. Little did I know the collision course I was aligning myself with that day. Mercy! Michal Ann's and my life was suddenly redirected with that singular initial meeting with this unusual man who seemed to live in the heavenlies.

Ann was pregnant with our first son Justin. Bob placed his hands on her that day and pronounced a father's blessing on one that he would later call his grandson - after all he carried his Grandpa's DNA! Strange beginnings indeed. An amazing roller coaster ride journey began as I was then honored to sit at Bob's right hand side in the formative years of what became known globally as The Kansas City Prophets. Historic! Ground breaking! And, yes, costly!

Today, Bob is seated in the heavenly places and I can only imagine the scenes he views from this higher dimension. I wonder if he has interviewed the four living creatures yet? I wonder if he and my Annie have embraced. This dear man possibly touched more leaders with the prophetic seer anointing than any other person in recent church history.

I have had a variety of mentors in my life for different areas of ministry in my 61 years. But by far, the man of God that impacted my revelatory journey the most was Seer Prophet Bob Jones.

Today, I pause to thank the Lord for the life and ministry of Papa Bob Jones. I give honor to whom honor is due. You wrecked my life, Bob, and I have never successfully recovered. Thanks a lot! You finished well dear friend. You learned to love! May we who are left to carry on learn to receive and release that same contagious love of God.

With Gratitude from a Son in the Faith,

James W. Goll
