Apostle Grace Lubega: A voice, a vision, a vessel

Today (July 21), the world celebrates a man whose birthday is marked not just with cake, candles, or cheer, but with a moment of reflection, gratitude, and renewed vision for a man whose influence has lit the path for thousands across the world.

Apostle Grace Lubega, the founder and lead preacher of Phaneroo Ministries International, is more than a preacher. He is a voice of revival, a scribe of revelation, and a man who has redefined what it means to live poured out.

For some, he is a father, to others, a mentor, and to many, a life-changer. His sermons are not just heard; they are lived, and his message is consistent: Christ in you, the hope of glory.

From the single mother who found hope again after attending a Phaneroo Women’s Conference, to the university student whose suicidal thoughts were silenced by a single sermon on identity, the stories are countless, woven into one great narrative: Apostle Grace Lubega’s life has become a message of God’s love and power.

His teachings have filled arenas, his voice has crossed borders, but it is the quiet impact on individual lives that best tells the story.

“God did not call me to be understood,” he once told a congregation, “He called me to be faithful.” That faithfulness has become the hallmark of his walk, marked by prayer, humility, and a relentless pursuit of purpose. In a world often obsessed with relevance, he remains grounded in eternal things. “We do not serve for applause,” he says, “We serve because we love as God has loved us.”

Whether in a stadium, on a livestream, or a street corner, he commands more than attention; he births encounters. “You were not designed to merely survive,” he once declared, “You were born to live from the inside out. The world is waiting for the God in you.”

Every message he preaches carries a sense of urgency, like a trumpet calling a generation to awaken. From teaching the identity of the new creature in Christ to stirring the Church into boldness and power, his voice has become an anchor in uncertain times. “The Gospel is not weak. It is the power of God. And when you believe it, it will show.”

Yet behind the pulpit presence lies a man of quiet discipline, a husband and a father, fiercely devoted to prayer, study, and communion with the Spirit. Those who walk closely with him speak of a man who laughs deeply, honors quietly, and carries the weight of nations in his heart.

As Apostle Grace marks this new year of life, there is no slowing down. “The journey is eternal,” he once said. “Each day is an opportunity to reveal Christ in fuller measure.” And that is what he continues to do: reveal Christ. Boldly. Clearly. Without compromise.

Happy birthday to a man whose life is not just celebrated, but followed.

Birthday wishes from the faithful

Apostle Grace Lubega, you surely are a "GREAT GIFT" from God to us, and the "SPIRITUAL TRIA BLAZER" of this generation, sir. I wish you the best of 'BIRTHDAYS' today.

Pastor John Lukyamuzi, Touching Life Ministries, Gayaza Town
Hello, Dad Apostle Grace Lubega, you're an inspiration to me and the entire Universe every day. Thank you for showing us God. I wish you a birthday that's as amazing as you are. Here's to another year of life, love, and adventure! Happy Birthday, Dad.

Pastor Stephen Kironde, Word of Charis Church, Sseeta Kiwanga.
Sometimes I sit down and wonder if Apostle Grace Lubega hadn't been born. Where would some of us be? How would our ministries look like? He found us in a state of confusion. We loved God with all our hearts but we lacked a man who would teach and show us the way of God without any I'll motives.

He's one individual I can't spend a day without thinking of. The Kironde I am today is partly because of him. Because of him, July 21st is meaningful now. In him I found a pastor, mentor, father, guide, counselor, friend, helper, confidant, adviser, leader, teacher, coverer, and destiny helper.

You can't sit under him or listen to the words that come out of his mouth and stay the same. The wisdom in his life has made us wise also. He's worth imitating. The purity of heart makes him different from many.

Ruth had Naomi, Elisha had Elijah, and I have Apostle Grace Lubega. With Apostle Grace as my Father, the Lord told me that He was done with me and that I now miss nothing.

Thank You, Lord, for one of the greatest gifts that has ever come into my life. May God continue to use and multiply you in every aspect of life.

Happy birthday, my mzei; Apostle Grace Lubega. Long live and happy 11th anniversary, Phaneroo Ministries International.

July is a wonderful month for me, where I celebrate My Father's birthday Mzeyi Apostle Grace Lubega, and mine as well. Mzeyi thank you very much for the impact you have had in my life and the definition of love and the Man that has seen God.

I have been in the Gospel for a long time, but when I met you redefined the way I see God and the Gospel I had to unlearn and learn a lot of things and grow.
Thank you very much for the opportunity you gave me to serve you it has been the greatest honour in my life. Thank you very much for allowing to father me I am eternally grateful. I LOVE YOU GREATLY, SIR.
