Justin Tope was born and raised in northeast Ohio, where he learned fishing, hunting, and trade skills. He grew up in church sitting under great men of God and receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. As he became an adult, he ventured out into the workplace and drifted away from his upbringing. He became a journeyman machinist and a skilled tradesman, taking great pride in his work, making good money and a good living and eventually promoting into management. Nothing was ever enough, though, and he kept searching for something better. It wasn’t until the spring of 2014 that he had an encounter with the Holy Spirit and a bold man of God who spoke to him with anointing. He prayed with Justin that night, and Justin rededicated his life to the Lord.
In the summer of 2020, Justin discovered his purpose and destiny through a God-ordained series of events. He lost his job during COVID-19 and took a road trip to Florida. It was there that the Lord met him and sparked his heart to become an evangelist. By January 2021, Justin was enrolled in Bible college. During this time, much vision was given, and he began to work and partner with various ministries to win souls for Jesus. Soon, he felt led to launch into the deep. That’s when Global Hallelujah Ministries was officially formed.
Here at Global Hallelujah Ministries, we are all about winning souls for the kingdom of heaven. We are called to help those who are down and out, to be a blessing to people and other ministries. We endeavor to do everything we do correctly and biblically, to steward well all that the Lord has (and will) give us.
Our desire is to see signs and wonders in the church and community, the Book of Acts at work. John 14:12 has become our rally cry. Jesus said that these things that He did, we would be doing also – and even greater works. That’s why we will not stop fulfilling the Great Commission until we are caught up in the heavens to meet our Lord and Savior Jesus. We believe we are in the greatest season that the church has ever witnessed –a crucial season, a time to reap the end-time harvest. We have set a ministry goal of winning one million souls for the kingdom of heaven, and we will do our best to reach that goal and even exceed it, pushing forward until the kingdom comes.
