MORE ABOUT HIS LIFE
Son to Missionaries
When Benjamin was three, his parents were radically saved and dedicated their lives to Jesus. His father and mother left their stable 9-5 jobs for a life dedicated to the service of evangelism, where Benjamin would grow up in an atmosphere of faith, miracles, and revival. They left South Africa to travel as missionaries to all parts of the world, including Africa, Mauritius, India, and the Philippines. Although he saw many miracles, from the blind receiving their sight to something as simple as God providing for the day, it was a difficult road at times. Attending 14 different schools and living an unpredictable life, Benjamin had to let go of his will and embrace God's call on his life.

BECOMING A PROPHET
Benjamin had his first supernatural encounter at the age of five, when Jesus appeared to him with arms wide open, during prayer, calling him to the nations. By age ten, he began prophesying with remarkable accuracy and has since prophesied over leaders, ministries, and nations. He has had many open visions and heavenly experiences with the Lord. His supernatural encounters and understanding of the Word has compelled him to equip the Body of Christ to discern between the true and false prophetic moves.
Benjamin Ardé has pastored Arc Church in South Africa since 2008
MINISTRY
Benjamin completed Rhema Bible College by 17, equipping him for the ministry ahead. As a young man, he and his wife moved to the United States, where he led worship in Marylin Hickey’s church in Colorado, USA. He soon traveled to multiple ministries, preaching the gospel in many churches and nations, becoming internationally recognized for his prophetic accuracy, gifting, and heart for God. His journey has garnered endorsement from powerful men and women of God, e.g. Dr. Marilyn Hickey, Neil Miers, Tim Bagwell, and Tim Storey.
While in the States, he hosted a Bible study in California, leading many well-known figures to the Lord. He also preached at conferences alongside figures like John Bevere, Todd Coconato, and others. He was featured on prominent platforms like Praise the Lord Live on TBN USA and the Elijah List. However, after having a traveling ministry for a long time, God called him back to South Africa to start a church.
In obedience to the call of ministry, Benjamin founded Arc®️, a prophetic organization dedicated to preparing God’s people for the challenging yet exhilarating times ahead. Responding to divine warnings he launched the #Pray4SA, and #Pray4theWorld movements. These initiatives have ignited global intercession, uniting people of prayer from 149 nations. Benjamin has appeared multiple times on South African Christian and national news television programs with large audiences to speak as a recognized prophet and founder of #Pray4SA.
