JoBeth Kested
Strategic Crew Chief Intercessor
“My passionate longing is to encourage Christians to know God’s voice and to know their authority in prayer within their spheres of influence and the boundaries of their assigned territories.”
JoBeth has had a longing to know God from her earliest childhood memories. In her late teens, at a point when she was considering suicide, she had a life changing encounter with the love of God when she surrendered her life to Jesus.
JoBeth ministers as an apostolic and prophetic intercessor with a breakthrough anointing. She discovered her calling as a strategic intercessor with authority in spiritual warfare by learning to pray scripture in overcoming many years of depression. She has personally experienced the power of God that sets captives free and gives the oil of joy for the spirit of heaviness (Isaiah 61:3). She loves to encourage others how to know God and to hear His voice; and therefore how to find His hope, peace and blessings in the midst of life’s difficulties by praying God’s Word.
JoBeth has been married to her best friend and husband, Russ, for more than 40 years. For about eight years from 1978 – 1985 they served in Youth With A Mission primarily in Spain and Hawaii. They were 18 years with a church in the Dallas area where JoBeth was very involved with prayer and intercession ministry. She has traveled on numerous national and international ministry assignments and twice to Israel. Russ and JoBeth are blessed to have three married children with eight wonderful grandchildren; and they currently live in the Denver area.
“None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience.” Martin Luther
