Bishop Levy H. Knox is the founding Apostle/Overseer of Living Word Christian Center. What began with a prophetic word from God has now expanded into a Christ-centered, Spirit-filled, international ministry. This ministry began in 1985 with an unchanging vision to communicate and demonstrate the gospel of the Kingdom in every sphere of life.
Bishop Knox is an anointed statesman, teacher and preacher in the Body of Christ. He is called to proclaim the Lordship of Christ and His Kingdom throughout the earth. The Spirit of God rests mightily upon him and the anointing enables those who hear and receive the Word of God in present truth, to awaken to the power of God and His predetermined purpose for their lives. He is one of God’s chosen vessels with a vision to see the Body of Christ equipped, empowered and mobilized for global Kingdom impact.
In the fall of 1992, Bishop Knox became the founder and president of Living Word Christian Center Kingdom Academy, a Christian school that trains and educates with academic and biblical excellence while imparting the concepts and principles of the Kingdom of God.
In 1996, Bishop Knox founded the KNCI (Kingdom Network of Churches International), an extension ministry of Living Word Christian Center. KNCI was birthed and established for the purpose of networking Churches and Ministries who are joined in a spiritual bond of covenant relationship with LWCC to co-labor together with a vision to build Christ’s Church and extend God’s Kingdom – transforming communities, cities, and disciple nations with the gospel of the Kingdom of God. Bishop Knox currently provides Apostolic oversight for Pastors and congregations throughout the United States.
In 2005, the Lord placed a fresh stirring in the heart of Bishop Knox to see the unity among the churches of Mobile and surrounding areas in a corporate expression of Christ. As a result, “Opportunity for Unity Ministry Network” (OFU) was birthed. OFU invites the Senior Pastors in the Mobile Bay Area, who have a burden for unity to fellowship, pray, build solid relationships and demonstrate Christ’s Church to the world. It is to see churches work together for the good of the entire city, transcending denominational, racial, and cultural barriers. “Rich in diversity, yet unified under the banner of Christ.”
Bishop Knox presently serves on the College of Bishops in the International Communion of Charismatic Churches (ICCC) under the covering of the Presiding Archbishop Kirby Clements of Decatur, GA. This network now represents over 4.2 million people and growing.
In a collaborative assignment, Bishop Knox and his wife Pastor Delia Knox, anointed Psalmist and Teacher, has a ministry of in depth revelatory teaching and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom, ministering hope, healing and a passion for His Presence. Bishop Knox’s degrees include a Doctorate of Ministry, Master and Bachelor degrees in Biblical Studies, and an A.S. in Business Administration.
