of Maumelle, AR
December 27, 1945 - May 21, 2024
Prophet Johnny Ray Barham entered the fullness of the glory of the Lord on May 21st, 2024 in North Little Rock, AR. Johnny was born in Corpus Christi, TX on December 27th, 1945 to the late Lonnie and Florence Barham of Camden, AR. He is preceded in death by his brothers, Jerry and Jimmy Dale Barham.
Johnny was a veteran of the Arkansas Army National Guard where he served as a Combat Medic. For much of his life he worked as a construction labor foreman. In his youth Johnny faced many life challenges until supernaturally encountering the merciful salvation of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Upon receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, Johnny grew strong in the Scriptures and a supernatural ability to hear from the Holy Spirit. For over fifty years, through tender mercies, God used his prophetic gift to miraculously transform literally thousands of people's lives around the world. Johnny preached all over the United States and served for years as an elder at Victory Fellowship where he taught others in the prophetic. Johnny was recently a member of Jubilee Church in Maumelle, AR. While others sought fame, fortune or intellectualism, Johnny Barham sought the voice of Adonai.
Johnny Barham is survived by his wife, Carolyn Barham, having been married for 57 years; his son, Dr. Marvin Barham (Angie) and his daughter, ReChell Reeder. He is survived by eight grandchildren, Victoria Barham, Abigail Coppock (James), Julia Barham, Joshua Barham, Jason Barham, Arielle Reeder, Noah Reeder and Johnathan Reeder and one great-grandchild, Jesse Coppock.

In addition, Johnny leaves many nieces and nephews whom he prayed for often.

I cherish the memories of the times that Johnny and I went to the North Little Rock city jail to share the Word of God with the inmates there. Johnny was a true friend and a true man of God

Prophet Johnny is my spiritual Father in the Lord, he led me to Jesus 36 yrs.ago! He was a Father figure in my life as well as a mentor & friend! I can’t even count all the prophecies that came to pass that were spoken over me by him!!! My friend Bonnie & I went to many churches in the tri state area to hear him preach. I loved to hear him preach & prophesy to others. He moved in the spiritual realm like no other Prophet I have Ever known full of mercy & compassion for God’s people. I saw physical miracles, hearts being healed, people giving their lives to Christ & being filled with the Holy Spirit! He touched so many lives & I am forever grateful to God for him! I will miss him so very much!!! As There will Never be another Prophet that hears from God in the depth & manner that he did. He told me when I got saved to always keep my eyes on Jesus & that’s one thing he always did! He kept his eyes on Jesus thru life’s trials he stayed close to the Father. He will be missed by many as so many were blessed by his ministry. May the Holy Spirit comfort his family & friends at this time & in the days to come & give us always the assurance that we will see him again someday…

I was very saddened to hear of the passing of Brother Johnny. He truly was dedicated and obedient to his calling in life. He was the first prophet I was introduced to and as long as I knew him if I asked or if he sensed I needed one, he never failed to take the time to give me a word complete with counseling. Impeccably dressed he was always the gentleman. He guarded his natural family as well as his spiritual family. There is no doubt he is using his gifts now and enjoying every moment. Thank you Brother Johnny....you are missed.

Bro. Johnny served in church leadership with my husband Buster for almost 30 years. Through those years and those to follow at Jubilee we four walked through many exciting and challenging ministry and life events together. He was a mighty man of God and a good friend to Buster.

Bro. Johnny ministered to me, he was a major part of a childhood healing. He profetically allowed me insight to areas of my life I needed understanding, no one knew but God. I am so thankful for his tender heart and willingness to pray for me. Thankful I was able to attend his classes to understand the profetic gifting from the Holy Spirit. I love you and will miss you along with all of our Jubliee family.

I have many memories of Johnny Ray as we grew up. We visited at least twice a year as we grew up. My favorite memories was after Uncle Lonnie and Aunt Pearl moved to Camden my Mom and I went to visit. Johnny Ray, Caroline and I were in the car (do not remember where we were going but I do remember it was a blue and white big car) but he openly, from the heart shared God’s word. I did not know prior to that visit he had turned his life over to God. He was sooo full of the Holy Sprite and was so passionate about his new life and calling. He never waived and continued sharing. Love you dearly sweet cousin-you are walking With Jesus now I know. Knowing is a great gift.
