"Suddenly, there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone’s chains came loose." — Acts 16:26
The atmosphere was vibrant. Hearts were receptive. Chains were being broken.

The GGW Ministry Youth Arise Conference 2025 was more than just another youth event—it was a prophetic assembly, a divine opportunity for the next generation to embrace freedom, purpose, and power.
More Than an Event

This gathering wasn’t simply about filling seats; it was about cultivating leaders.
At its heart, Youth Arise represents a strategic investment—into the spiritual, emotional, and social growth of our youth. We believe the church doesn’t just have a future—it is the future. God is preparing young voices to advance His mission with clarity, conviction, and courage.
This year’s conference marked a record-breaking milestone. Over 140 young individuals united from churches throughout Johannesburg, including:
God Is Good Worship Ministry
Ville de Refuge Ministry
Light of God International
The Baptist Church in Rosettenville

The central theme that resonated throughout every session and testimony was freedom—a divine shaking that liberates the captives, just as described in Acts 16:26. From praise and worship to impactful messages and prayer, the Holy Spirit moved with intensity and precision.
We witnessed:
Young people liberating themselves from fear and anxiety
A renewed desire for holiness and truth
Bold proclamations of faith and purpose
Genuine friendships forming across churches and cultures
A Transformational Experience

Every aspect of the conference was crafted to empower—from breakout sessions on identity and leadership to altar moments that facilitated healing and purpose. The atmosphere was intense yet profoundly hopeful and transformative.

This conference was not the conclusion—it’s the launch pad. These young individuals are heading back to their homes, schools, and churches as carriers of revival and agents of change.
We believe that the sound of freedom ignited at Youth Arise 2025 will resonate in every aspect of their lives—and that this generation will rise boldly for Jesus.
