NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD
Dr. Paola Villa
Dr. Paola Villa’s life is a living testimony of the miraculous power of God and the unique grace He places on those called to impact nations. From her earliest years, her story has been marked by supernatural encounters and unusual favor that positioned her for a global assignment.
At two years old, she was given just 48 hours to live as meningitis ravaged her brain. Doctors had no hope, but her mother refused to stop praying. Miraculously, Paola not only survived but was fully restored, with no damage or delay. That healing became the foundation of her faith — proof from the beginning that Jesus is still a miracle worker.
When she was six, she asked Jesus into her heart at midnight while watching The Ten Commandments with her mother. The glow of the television, the quiet of the night, and the childlike simplicity of that prayer became a defining moment. From that day forward, she knew her life belonged to Jesus. Soon after, her family entered King Jesus Ministry, where she was raised under Apostle Guillermo Maldonado. From age six onward, she was discipled in the ways of the Lord, immersed in a ministry known for miracles, deliverance, and revival.
Soon after, her family found a spiritual home at King Jesus Ministry under Apostle Guillermo Maldonado. From the age of six, Paola was immersed in the presence of God and discipled in a ministry marked by miracles, deliverance, and the power of the Holy Spirit. She grew up watching blind eyes open, the sick healed, and lives transformed under the fire of revival. Those years were not just formative — they were prophetic preparation. Paola was not only a witness, but a participant, carrying the atmosphere of the miraculous in her own walk with Jesus.
Years of formation at King Jesus Ministry prepared her to walk in the supernatural. She traveled the world with him — to India, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Europe, South America, and beyond — preaching the Gospel, witnessing miracles, and serving in the fire of revival. Along the way, God confirmed His calling on her life with signs, wonders, and salvations. In time, she was formally ordained into ministry under Apostle Maldonado, a moment that marked the culmination of her upbringing in King Jesus Ministry and the beginning of her assignment as a minister of the Gospel in her own right.
That ordination was not a ceremonial title — it was a divine commission. Today, Dr. Paola Villa is recognized as a minister who moves in prayer, intercession, deliverance, and words of knowledge. Her services are marked by miracles and the prophetic, yet God has also positioned her uniquely to carry His wisdom into professional, economic, and governmental spheres
Her journey from near death to national influence illustrates a consistent truth: when God sets you apart, no obstacle can stop His plan. Dr. Villa became the first Colombian-American woman to receive the U.S. Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award. She was awarded the Global Humanitarian Award by the United Nations Women Foundation and named among their 100 Most Influential Women. She is a trailblazer in STEM, a member of the Association of Women in Science, and a nominee for the Presidential STEM Award in Mathematics and Economics. These recognitions reflect the breadth of her calling: a voice trusted not only in the church but also in the highest levels of government and global institutions.
A significant part of this recognition has come through her leadership of Harvest Feed, the humanitarian arm she founded. Under her direction, Harvest Feed has distributed millions of pounds of food worldwide, bringing relief to children, families, and communities in crisis. She has partnered with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the USDA, Feeding America, the United Nations, and even the U.S. Air Force to deliver large-scale aid into refugee camps, war zones, and disaster-stricken regions. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she led one of Atlanta’s largest relief efforts, mobilizing more than 5 million pounds of food to 20,000 families. Her ability to bridge humanitarian aid with faith has set her apart, proving that the Gospel is not just preached but demonstrated in compassion and action.
Her reputation for both spiritual authority and professional excellence has opened extraordinary doors. She has advised governments in Uganda, South Africa, Nigeria, and beyond. She has sat on UN panels beside first ladies and royalty, championing religious freedom and humanitarian strategy. Wherever she is sent — whether to feed the hungry, speak to dignitaries, or pray for the sick — her message remains the same: Jesus is Lord.
At her core, Dr. Paola Villa is simply a woman who loves Jesus deeply. She has been raised in the power of prayer, formed by the fire of revival, and ordained to carry the Gospel with boldness. From the hospital room where her life was spared, to the ministry halls of power, to the ordination that sealed her call — her life has been a tapestry of God’s faithfulness.
Today, she stands as a prophetic voice for this generation. A voice that intercedes. A voice that heals. A voice that proclaims Christ. Her ministry is marked by the conviction that Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever — and her life is proof that Jesus still does miracles.
Dr. Paola Villa was born on November 2, 1989 and holds a BA in International Affairs and Economics from KSU and a DDiv Doctor of Divinity from TIUA.
