Andrea Nancille Jackson is a Christian minister, teacher, speaker, author and Servant Leader of Global Girl Ministries International (GGMI). Andrea accepted Jesus as Savior at the tender age of 9 years old at Mount Calvary Baptist Church (in Morgan Park) of Chicago, Illinois. However, it wasn’t until Andrea was delivered from practicing witchcraft during her college years did she submit to Christ Jesus and allow Him to become her King and Lord.
After rededicating her life to Christ, Andrea believed Holy Spirit’s call to “feed My sheep”, and began to accept His Hand on her life. Holy Spirit gave her the command to teach, pray for, and write about the need for a relationship with God the Father, through Jesus Christ without religious tenets, credos, or tradition. Since 2003, Andrea has passionately pursued living her life according to God’s true purpose for His Kingdom and His people.
Andrea is the author of What’s This Prayer Stuff? Plain talk about talking plain to God a book explaining the importance of having plain and authentic conversations between God and the Christian believer. Under the umbrella of G.G.M., Andrea is serving as the lead teaching servant for Prayer with Purpose™ Intercessory Prayer Team Ministry, an interdenominational team of prophetic prayer intercessors charged with praying for individuals as well as international concerns and Praise, Prayer and Purpose in the Place (P4)™, a bible study encounter in different locations across America, which breaks down, verse by verse, beloved books of the bible to bring clarity, understanding and practical, everyday wisdom and strategy to the believer and unbeliever alike. In November of 2016, GGMI also presented its first teaching conference, Prayer Personified™ BootCamps & Conferences, interactive and intensive workshops designed to jump-start and stir up the gift of the intercessor. These classes, which are done in two parts, are a true blessing to the students. Andrea developed classes and teaches through Purpose School, the educational arm of GGMI. Prayer Personified 101- Fundamentals of Prayer and 102-The Deep Dive are 9 and 10-week courses respectively, designed to educate and equip the Body of Christ in prayer, intercession, and spiritual warfare.
Under the leading and anointing of Holy Spirit, Andrea has ministered in prophetic teaching & intercession, deliverance and healing. She also has a strong calling for the Holy Spirit gift of prophetic administration and helps. In November, 2017, Andrea graduated from the Eagle International Training Institute (EITI), Dallas, Texas under the leadership of Apostle Doctor Pamela Hardy and Instructor Eagle Pastor Karen Gardner. EITI’s School of Prayer, Intercessory Prayer Course, Year One, is an intensive 11 month course designed to hone the skills of the intercessor and push one into a higher calling in the courts of God Almighty.
