The Christian world suffered a sad blow tonight as the angels of God escorted Jill Austin to heaven at 9:48 pm, cst. She was a vibrant, loving Christian champion who exuded love and ushered in the glory of God whenever she ministered.With her family surrounding her, Jill Austin drew her last breath while still clamped to life support system following two major surgeries this past week. You can read the initial report with details of her condition from this blog here.
No one understands why a mighty woman of God could be taken so young. But sometimes a death occurs so that life can sprout out in other places. For instance, one of the most outstanding things I've seen this past week was a resurgence of love and unity within the body of believers. Many Christian leaders and whole ministries joined together in brotherly love and concern to pray and intercede for this woman of God. Christian websites and, even, Facebook was abuzz this week with news updates about Jill's health. The Christian body of believers was galvanized this week toward unity and love and prayer.
Jill Austin, author of the book Dancing with Destiny, traveled extensively for over 25 years as a national and international conference speaker, ministering the Gospel with signs and wonders following. She had a powerful prophetic anointing which released the fire of the Holy Spirit, bringing fresh passion and hunger for Jesus Christ.
While working as an award-winning professional potter, Jill founded Master Potter Ministries over 25 years ago. A dimension of Master Potter Ministries was to train and equip believers to move in the anointing and prophetic gifting.
Jill's partnership with the Holy Spirit and her love for the Word often brought spiritual breakthroughs, ushering in realms of the manifest presence of God. Ministering to leaders as well as the broader Body of Christ, Jill delivered prophetic words releasing impartation and unlocking destiny in individuals, churches, and cities.
Jill was scheduled to participate at the MSM New Year Prophetic Glory Conference on Long Island, NY, next weekend. She will be sorely missed. However, Matt says that at the conference they will be praying for the prophetic mantle that was upon her to be released to those gathered.

I will always remember how gracious Jill was when I met her at past Matt Sorger Conferences. She had the freewheeling attitude of a 60's surfer with a teenager's heart of unfeigned love. She was tireless in her ministry, devoted, caring and giving.
Well done, good and faithful servant.
