When one considers ‘God’s Generals’ of the last century, names like William Branham, John G Lake, Maria Woodworth-Etter, and Jack Coe come to mind.
Paul Cain, who served Branham as a young man is said to be in the same league.
He inspired countless numbers of people during his 76 years of ministry and according to a statement from Dan Reise and Jon Cressey of Paul Cain Ministries.
He passed away on Wednesday February 13th 2019 at the age of 89. He would have been 90 in June.
“As a prophet, he was convinced that God is about to do something unprecedented, that a wonderful and powerful revival is coming that would touch the nations.
Cain was born June 16, 1929. Cain’s mother should have died in the birth but reportedly had an angelic visitation that miraculously healed her.
Cain launched his ministry at age 18 during the Pentecostal healing revival of the 1940s and 1950s. But he vanished from the scene for more than 25 years, then re-emerged in the late 1980s when Bickle promoted Cain’s ministry at his Metro Vineyard Christian Fellowship in Kansas City, Missouri, Charisma previously reported.
By the 1950s, Cain traveled internationally and drew as many as 30,000 at tent meetings in Switzerland and Germany.

“So happy for Paul Cain to enter into glory. I remember how excited I was when I first met him because he represented the miraculous friendship with God to me,” prophetic voice Shawn Bolz tells Charisma News. “
Watching him minister was just wild! I don’t know if I would even have a prophetic ministry if it wasn’t for his anointing. I probably would have lived a more normal life. Then becoming his friend was also filled with amazing stories that he was never able to tell because they were with people of such high influence.
Queens, political outlaws, presidents, movie stars, stopping wars, exposing terrorist threats, giving crime details to the FBI—there was no end of fantastical stories of how Paul’s gift in the prophetic caused the world to change.”
Of Cain’s passing, Rick Joyner said: “I’ve been blessed to know some of the most interesting and high impact people in our time, and in some ways Paul Cain was one of the most remarkable of all. With Paul I witnessed some of the most extraordinary miracles and acts of God, and learned much about the glory and majesty of God.
I also learned how having great power and spiritual gifting can make us even more vulnerable to the pride that will cause us to fall. Even with the challenges we experienced with Paul, I am so thankful to have been able to know him, and have him as such a part of our life as he was, and I think we may not fully understand until the age to come, but he helped to prepare for some of the great moves of God that are now unfolding.”
