Heaven just received someone whose footsteps changed the earth - Goodbye (for now) to Faith General Marilyn Hickey

The Body of Christ said goodbye (for now) to Marilyn Hickey—a true general, a woman of unwavering faith, and a voice that refused to be silenced.

Marilyn Hickey was not just a preacher—she was a builder of faith across generations. From pastoring in Denver to filling arenas around the world with the Gospel, her life was marked by bold obedience. She didn’t just talk about God—she demonstrated Him through power, teaching, and consistency.

She carried the Word into nations, hosting crusades where miracles weren’t just hoped for—they were expected. She taught on television with clarity and authority, making the Word accessible to everyday people. She wrote, she mentored, she poured, and she stayed faithful.

In a time where compromise can be dressed up as relevance, Marilyn Hickey stood as a pillar of moral integrity. She didn’t bend. She didn’t dilute truth. She didn’t chase culture—she influenced it.

As a prominent voice in the Global Charismatic Movement, she helped shape what many of us now walk in. 

Her legacy isn’t just in books or broadcasts—it’s in the lives she impacted, the ministers she raised, and the faith she ignited in ordinary people who dared to believe God for more.

And maybe that’s what makes her life so powerful—she made faith feel possible.

This isn’t a loss. It’s a promotion.

Because heaven doesn’t call home what wasn’t first sent with purpose.

So while we honor her, we also have to ask ourselves:

What are we doing with the mantle that remains?

Will we live boldly?

Will we speak truth without apology?

Will we carry the Word with both power and integrity?

Because that’s the real legacy of a giant—it doesn’t end with them. It continues through us.

Rest well, General. Your work echoes in eternity.
