Brief Biography of the Leader of the IFM in South Africa & Overview of IFM Leaders Around the World Part I

International Faith Ministries has today become a global phenomenon.  The cause of such miraculous growth is the fact that God has raised and continues to raise leaders that have given their lives to the cause of building International Faith Ministries all over the world.  In this article we at IFM would like to share with you about the leader of the IFM vision in South Africa.  Eliyah Khumalo received his education from Tshwane University of Technology, the Cape Peninsula University of Technology and the University of Missouri in the United States of America. His achievements include being named on the Dean’s Honor Roll of University of Missouri for three years in succession.  Eliyah Khumalo is also a published author with popular book titles that among others include: The Patterns of God; Building According to Blueprints; and Blueprint Centric Innovation & Creativity. In addition his newest book, Ultimate Spirituality and the latest entitled Ingenuous Leadership will be released by publishers soon. Eliyah Khumalo’s previous professional engagements among corporations encompassed appointment as Head of fuel Procurement at South African Airways with accountability over a USD 600 million annual spend over a 7 year period; a Senior Engineer at the Department of Public Works with oversight over a USD 300 million engineering services & procurement annual spend; and later as a member of the Board and Procurement Director at Nampak Corporation accountable for a USD 120 million annual divisional spend.  In addition to engineering, his expertise in corporations and public agencies includes developing leadership; with hands-on experience on formulation & implementation of strategies, business plans, and crafting Balanced Score Cards for monitoring the execution & performance of strategies.  Today Eliyah Khumalo continues to impart the knowledge and skills he acquired in secular work through training programs that among others encompass Business Consulting, Transformational Leadership, Executive & Senior Management Development, Turn-around Strategies, etc. He is a sought after Advisor on leadership for both public and private sector organizations.  At present Eliyah continues to share his gift as  a Speaker with groups of all sizes in diverse fields in the Church, in the Public & Private Sectors and continues to write new books to develop leaders into change agents.

 Furthermore, Eliyah Khumalo’s ordination as a minister of the good news of the Kingdom of God was conferred on him on the November 10th, 1995 by the International Third World Leaders Association under the leadership of Dr. Myles Munroe in Nassau, Bahamas.  In addition, He is the Founder of a global Church planting organization known as International Faith Ministries. Through IFM and its apostolic team Eliyah Khumalo has planted and supported the planting of over 50 autonomous Christian Church assemblies.  Apostle Eliyah Khumalo has ordained Bishops, Senior Pastors, Apostles, Evangelists, Teachers of the Word, and Prophets for the work of the ministry both inside IFM and in the assemblies that are autonomous beyond the auspices of IFM.   The success stories in the latter category encompasses but not limited to  Faith Survival Center in Maboloka village; Rivers of Abundance Prophetic Church in Soshanguve Township; Source of Life Church in Maoti village in KwaZulu Natal; Care Bible Church in Klipfontein outside Midrand and Living Sound Faith Tabernacle in Meriting Township.  In 2007 Eliyah & Elizabeth Khumalo resigned from secular employment and also took 3 years time off his oversight responsibilities of the Church assemblies to do humantarian reflief work and the mission field.   In 2012 Eliyah & Elizabeth Khumalo relocated back to the city of Durban to continue with the work of building International Faith Ministries and to establish the Apostle’s Office with a team dedicated to IFM to impact and change the world through the preaching of the gospel and working to build businesses with a focus to render IFM financially independent.  At the time of this update International Faith Ministries is growing around the world through IFM leaders that God has raised and continue to raise as champions to this cause in their countries.  Below is a table of some of the Leaders that God has raised in different countries to the cause of International Faith Ministries.  Indeed International Faith Ministries is unfolding before all of us as a global phenomenon.  We thank God Almighty for the authentic work and move of the Holy Spirit to transform our world through International Faith Ministries.  We thank God for the Leaders of International Faith Ministries; and we thank God for the family of believers that support and those that have submitted their lives to the cause of IFM around the globe.
