Kevin Leal

Leadership & Dreams

For over 30 years, Kevin has faithfully served as a prophetic voice to the Body of Christ. His journey began with a personal discovery of his gift, as he shared the gospel with the lost and led weekly cell group meetings. In the early years of his ministry, Kevin’s prophetic words reached hundreds of people over just two- or three-day gatherings, with remarkable accuracy. While these experiences brought great personal blessings to individuals, they didn’t yet align with the larger, lasting impact God had prepared for him.
In the early 1980s, the Holy Spirit gave Kevin a profound word: “You have been operating with your ministry gift, but now you will begin to move in the fullness of your calling. You’ve used your gift to bless, but now you will use it to equip others for ministry.”
This message marked a turning point in Kevin’s ministry, shifting his focus from blessing individuals to building the Church. His calling transformed from simply imparting knowledge to equipping leaders—leaders who could raise up others and build ministries with regional and global influence. Kevin now actively partners with apostolic leaders, empowering them to plant and develop churches that create a lasting Kingdom impact.
Kevin’s meetings are known for a tangible, powerful presence of the Holy Spirit. This atmosphere often ignites a deep awakening in leaders and workers alike, stirring in them a desire to shift from receiving blessings to becoming builders, from passive observation to active ministry. His mission is to equip believers with the tools needed for real-world ministry that leaves a supernatural mark on their lives, communities, and generation.
