A Father. A Builder. A Legacy-Maker.

​

Bishop McKinley Green was more than a spiritual leader, he was a father to the faith, a patriarch of power, and a visionary architect of apostolic order. Marked by a life of holiness, humility, and heavenly mandate, he led not just with words, but with weight, living out every sermon before he ever preached it.

 

With over four decades of steadfast leadership, Bishop Green carved a legacy rooted in prayer, anchored in the Word, and ignited by the fire of the Holy Ghost. A man of discipline and discernment, he carried an old-school foundation with a forward-thinking mantle, calling generations to righteousness, reverence, and revival.

 

He was not just a preacher, he was a reformer. A leader who walked in both unction and understanding, doctrine and demonstration. Whether in the sanctuary or the streets, his presence was pastoral, his voice was prophetic, and his love was pure.

 

A devoted husband, loving father, and spiritual covering to many, he modeled what it meant to serve with strength and shepherd with sensitivity. Bishop Green was a rare gift—a man sent from God whose impact still echoes through the lives of those he touched.

Built on Faith. Rooted in Order. Empowered by the Holy Spirit.

​

The ministry of Bishop McKinley Green was not a moment, it was a movement. With over 25 years of uncompromising dedication to the work of the Lord, he exemplified what it means to be both a faithful servant and a kingdom general. His ministry stood as a beacon of holiness and structure, shaping lives, reforming churches, and calling both saints and leaders into greater levels of accountability, consecration, and clarity.

 

He believed in doing all things decently and in order, and his pastoral assignments were marked by an unwavering commitment to sound doctrine, spiritual discipline, and the power of praise. Under his leadership, the Churches of Deliverance became more than assemblies, they became apostolic hubs where the presence of God was felt, the Word of God was rightly divided, and the people of God were developed.

 

Whether training armor bearers, instructing elders, or encouraging youth, Bishop Green ministered with fatherly grace and prophetic fire. Every message was weighty. Every encounter, intentional. Every assignment, fulfilled with excellence. The ministry he stewarded remains a living testament to servant-leadership at its highest level.

Declaring the Gospel. Defending the Faith. Preparing the Bride.

​

Inspired by Acts 20:20–21, Bishop Green embraced a mission that reached beyond pulpits and pews. He took the gospel from house to house, heart to heart, and soul to soul, bearing witness to the finished work of Jesus Christ and preparing the Church for His return.

 

To him, the gospel was not optional, it was urgent. He proclaimed repentance, righteousness, and resurrection power with such simplicity and authority that even a child could understand and respond. His mission was clear: to compel, to convict, and to convert, calling men and women into right standing with God and readiness for the return of Jesus.

 

Bishop Green preached the cross, the blood, and the crown. And he did so not out of duty, but out of deep devotion. His mission wasn’t inherited, it was ignited. A sacred burden birthed in the secret place and fulfilled in every space he touched.

 

He was a watchman on the wall, a voice crying in this present wilderness, and a herald of hope and holiness in a time when the Church needed clarity more than charisma. This wasn’t just a mission. This was The Mission.

Anointed to Build. Assigned to Awaken. Graced to Govern.

​

With a fierce sense of purpose and a divine urgency, Bishop McKinley Green embraced the call of God on his life as a sacred mandate. From his earliest years in ministry to his latter years as a spiritual father and apostolic voice, he walked in the spirit of Luke 4:18, opening blinded eyes, loosing bound lives, and announcing the acceptable year of the Lord.

 

His mandate was clear: raise up a righteous remnant, proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom with clarity and conviction, and cultivate a people who know their God, understand their purpose, and walk in kingdom power. He utilized every God-ordained conduit available, preaching, teaching, prayer, protocol, and prophetic demonstration.

 

Bishop Green was not driven by ambition, but by assignment. He didn’t chase stages, he built altars. He didn’t seek to be known, he sought to make Jesus known. And through it all, he remained faithful to his charge, planting ministries, mentoring leaders, and modeling Christlikeness for generations to follow.

 

He didn’t just lead with authority, he led with apostolic alignment. And through his obedience, a spiritual blueprint was born that continues to shape the identity of the Churches of Deliverance to this day.
