A Loving Epistle To The Praying Hearts

Our vision is to see the gospel of Jesus Christblessing villages in India.

Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, who was revealed in the flesh to serve according to the will of God and gave His life to redeem mankind.

Let us thank and praise the Lord for all the blessings we have received. The goodness that He has made for those who fear the Lord and for those who honour the Lord before men is amazing. The responsibility to faithfully do God's ministry is upon us.

MINISTRY FOCUSED ON THE PRESENT:

We should not consider ministry as an ordinary work rather consider it as a privilege to be chosen by God to serve him. The Greek work 'Diakonia' means that we have to serve poor and oppressed like a slave, with great love and humility without expectation.

Men's work is self‐centred, to please others and achieve success through crooked means. They live in tears and frustration unable to satisfy their worldly pleasures. They lean on their beauty, talents, money, position, authority and their experience, till God intervenes.

We read in Genesis 31:6,41 and Hosea 12:12 that Jacob served at the house of his father‐in law for 20 years to earn wives and cattle. Jacob was proud of his hard work. Later when he was alone with the Lord, he realized all these worldly gains are vain (Gen. 32:22‐29).

The leprosy that was in Naaman clings on to Gehazi, Elisha's servant and his descendants, because of his love for money. This is the result of the desire towards the world than God's ministry (2 Kings 5:20‐27).

“If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.” (1 Corinthians 15:19).

THE MINISTRY FOCUSED ON ETERNITY:

We cannot serve two masters. We are set apart to serve only the Lord. It is a great privilege to serve the Lord. It is the ministry to save people dying in sin to eternal life! It is the great effort that you take to make man to enjoy eternal life! It will one day give a great reward.

We cannot involve in the ministry if the love of Christ does not lead us. We cannot whole heartedly commit to serve if the Holy Spirit does not

For the children of God who join us in prayer

From the Executive Director


give us the burden for souls. If we have the real love towards the souls that are perishing “they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (2 Peter 1:8). It will help us to pray at the presence of the Lord saying, give me souls or take mine.

Beloved, firstly love in heart; secondly love in works! Christ's love in us should manifest as good deeds. We must show concern towards the people who are dying in sin and save them from the fire of hell. Rescuing people for the eternal kingdom is our greatest ministry!

David served God's purpose in his own generation (Acts 13:36). My Father will honour the one who serves me (John 12:26). Support the ministry with your financial blessings.

PRAY FOR ASSAM...

Heavy rains and floods devastated 21 districts in the state of Assam . More than 15 lakhs of people are affected. This state has 26,532 villages. This is the heaviest rainfall in the past 29 years. We have to pray for those who have lost their family and their belongings and also for those who are involved in relief work. 44 of our missionaries are working there. Pray that God will grant His grace for the people of this state.

WALK TOWARDS THE VISION...

We thank the loving pastors, representatives, prayer group leaders and ministry partners who are encouraging us through prayers to move forward to fulfill the vision.

I greet and thank Rev. Pray S. James Vedamuthu of AR Line C.S.I. Emmanuel Church for granting us permission to share the Word of God on July 16 at Palayamkottai and also Vishwa Vani representatives. The Lord helped us to pray, plan and review the ministry that was held in South Tamil Nadu on July 17. The Lord helped me to accomplish the administrative work in Chennai office from 18 to 28.

The dedication of 30 North Indian workers and adoption of the villages were held on July 29 at Trichy. I appreciate the pastors who conducted the meeting, Prof. Dr. G. Stephen Vincent, Trichy District Ministry Development Members, co‐workers Daniel Jebaraj and John. I thank


Rev. Gunajothimani, the Council Chairman who chaired the function. The Lord enabled me to share the Word of God at the service on July 30 at C.S.I. All Saints' Church.

I had the privilege to do the ministry related to the welfare of workers and the financial planning from the administrative office during the first week of August. The Vishwa Vani Prathna Sahaya Kendra at Perumbakkam, Chennai was dedicated on August 12 for the glory of Jesus and the prosperity of the Indians and the villages in India by Selvaraj Annan. May Glory be to God.

I thank Rev. Isaac from St Peters' Church, Semmanpet, Chennai who gave the privilege to share about the ministry on August 13. I thank the co‐workers, representatives for helping us conduct the yearly ministry partners meet at Vepery Bentick school on August 15. I greet Bro. A.E. Jeyaraj and the co‐workers, representatives who took great efforts.

MINISTRY PARTNERS, REPRESENTATIVES' PROFILES:

We are updating the details of the ministry partners and representatives once in three years through computer for the sake of promotional work. Even this year, workers and representatives are involved. When they approach you with the form for that please duly fill them and help us. All the details that you share with us will be kept in secret. These efforts are taken to greet you and the family members during your anniversary and birthdays and to share with you the updates of the ministry. Thank you for your cooperation in updating the details.

COLLECTION OF SAVINGS BOXES, VILLAGE ADOPTION AMOUNT:

We humbly request you to send the offerings from the Savings Boxes and Village Adoption amount as the first half financial year ends by September 30. Please let us know If your contributions are not collected. The contribution along with prayers is highly beneficial for our work in remote places. We thank you for your whole hearted support to the ministry.


PRAYER POINTS:

We have two camps in Courtallam during the month of October. Please pray for South Tamil Nadu state camp from 13 to 15 and Central Tamil Nadu State Camp from 27 to 29.

28 new workers from Sureri field in Uttar Pradesh have completed their training. They are going to the unreached villages in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. Support them in prayers.

We have not collected 25,413 savings boxes from April to July. We fall short by Rs. 3 crore for the village ministry. We need hundreds of believers who would voluntarily help in collecting the offertory so that the shortage of funds will not be a hindrance for our ministry. Please pray and work together with us.

“They shall be Mine,” says the LORD of hosts, “On the day that I make them My jewels. And I will spare them As a man spares his own son who serves him.” Then you shall again discern Between the righteous and the wicked, Between one who serves God And one who does not serve Him. (Malachi 3:17,18).

Chennai In His Vineyard,15.8.2017 W. Wilson Gnanakumar


I have the experience of 41 years to spell magic and cast evil spirit. I am residing at Polasmal village in Gujarat. The Kukna people residing there used to visit me day and night! One day, the evil spirit that were listening to me, troubled my body. I was paralyzed and could not speak . When they took me to greater magicians than me, even they were unable to help me. I took medicines from the places like Subir, Ahwa and Chikhali but no healing. My relatives came to see me thinking that I would die. One among them was a believer. According to their word, I was taken to the church and the worker and the believers prayed for me with fasting in the name of Jesus. One after the other all the evil spirits left me. Today I am able to walk in the name of Jesus. I am walking in the way that the believers taught me. The words that come from my mouth are living witnesses. Because of the goodness that the Lord has done for me, all that I do along with worker Dinesh Bhai Bosara is that day and night I tell the villagers, 'The One who is in me is Bigger than the One who is in the World'!

� New Believer Nanaj Bhai Bhoye.

THE ONE WHO IS IN US IS BIGGERTHAN THE ONE WHO IS IN THE WORLD!

ONENESS meansthere is inPOWER the andfamily in the Lord's ministry!If a husband and wifehave oneness,Even if there is no money,even if there isproblem because of neighbors, even if there is worriesbecause of the children,even if there is deceit,even if there is no place to stay, when they kneel down and cry unto the Lord Jesus, everything will be given.

If there is oneness in the midst of Gospel workers who gather in the name of Jesus and cry unto Him, whichever place they set their feet on, will be their own.

If you disagree thisyou will be losers!If you practice this nowyou will be blessedin this life and in eternity!

A PRAYERLord Jesus, let us look to you with oneness of heart. Help us to look to you and pray everyday morning with oneness of heart let us kneel down and pray Father!Lord be gracious unto us so that when we kneel down and pray let us not have the thought about men or of the world or about the work we have to complete which the devil brings into our mind so that we may lose the oneness! With one accord let us kneel down and pray. Help us to pass thro' this world victoriously. In the name of Jesus give us the oneness of heart through the Holy Spirit Father!Then we, our families, our children, and our coworkers will live with oneness and work together! Let us be victorious and praise You!In the name of Jesus with oneness of mind! Amen!


LIVING IN CHRISTI was in the darkness of poverty, poorest of poor, survived on daily wages. In this situation we were shattered when they said we need to pay Rs 8000/- for the initial treatment of the cancerous tumor in my uterus. We belong to the Kukna people group in Gujarat. Though many people came to inquire about me, there was none to give deliverance from the disease. Prayer request was sent to the believers at Polasmal. The fellowship members fasted and prayed for 7 days! I joined them with faith. I felt the touch of Jesus. Before meeting my �nancial needs, Jesus met the needs of my heart by giving salvation and faith free. Through the Word of God, I was able to realize the power of Jesus. Yes, through the faith that He has given me, I am healed and alive till this day! I am taking part in the ministry, attending the church and sharing the Word of God. There is healing power in the name of Jesus. Hallelujah! � New believer Laxmi Ben.

May the grace and love and peace of Lord Jesus Christ be unto you! I am delighted to share the fruits of the ministry with ministry partners God has given us.

GOD'S MINISTRY THAT SPREADS:The Holy Spirit performs miracles, signs and wonders. He is leading the ministry towards growth, leading the workers with His Mighty hand and blessing the nation through the name of Jesus Christ. May His name be glorified. The number of districts where the ministry is carried have increased to 169 as mission fields has been opened at 5 new districts. Praise God for 386 youths who have committed themselves as Ezras for the full-time ministry with the commitment saying, 'Lo send me'.

GOD'S MINISTRY WITH THE VISION:I visited the fields in Gujarat, Maharashtra and Telangana and saw the expansion of God's work. Particularly God gave me a blessed time with 438 students, teachers and faculties at our English School in Navapada, Gujarat during August 8 & 9. God gave us

the blessed opportunity to dedicate the second four-wheeler that God has given for this school through the prayer partners! With the Directors, and the state coordinator and with 165 field workers from Gujarat, the planning meetings were held in 2 different sessions. Praise God for the new leading in God's ministry.

GOD'S MINISTRY THROUGH GUJARAT FIELD CHURCHES:The churches that God has given in the fields of Gujarat have started to work towards the vision to reach 9000 villages in the state of Gujarat with the gospel. We appointed a Ministry Team in order to mentor the 335 field churches that is functioning in this state on �Spiritual Development � Worship�, �Communication Development � Witnessing� � �Community Development � Serving�, �Deepening In The Word of God � Character Development�. Pray for the team that

is in different districts along with Rev. Arnest Christian.

Pray for our ministry that works with 9 different departments namely Prayer Network, Administration, Finance, Development, Field Ministry, Public Relations, Training Department, Field Church Ministry, and Social Development Department to reach one lakh Indian villages. May the villages be filled with the knowledge of the Lord!

Chennai In Christ's Service,15.8.2017 P.Selvaraj, Network Chairman

From the Chairman


Whenever the ministry partners who send the workers and support, who shed their tears at the feet of Jesus and pray for the village visit the �elds, there is great joy in the village. People rejoice to see the souls that are repented, the workers who tarry among the people groups, the churches that God have given because of their commit-ted work � the churches that are dedicated � all these provide opportunities for the sowers and reapers to praise the Lord.We thank those who visit the �elds and encourage the workers and their ministry. These ministry partners who do not mind the distance, time to visit our mission �elds witness miracles. They are experiencing the out pouring of the Holy Spirit. They are realizing that their tearful prayers and offerings yield much reward. They are rejoicing and praise the Lord. We thank the 68 tour groups that visited the mission �elds from January to July

2017. We thank the Lord as the 782 ministry partners have used the talents which the Lord has given them in the �elds. More than 600 believers are to visit the �elds in forthcoming six months. Pray for their travel mercies. If you would like to join the tour group and witness the glorious works of God, please contact the area representatives or development staff.

We are Witnessing Miracles in the Regions Beyond

Nagamma was suffering with anaemia for the past 15 years. The neighbours of Nagamma residing at Belagare �eld in Karnataka shared the gospel with her as she was struggling to �nd healing through black magic and other ways. She came to know the power of the gospel through worker Basavaraju and there is answer for the prayer raised in the name of Jesus! She is healed, 15 years of ordeal came to an end. She is sharing her testimony with Belagare villagers and she is worshiping the Lord with her whole family. Praise the Lord! � Isaac

Victory Blood of Jesusin the


I used to take people from Doddachelluru village at Challakere taluk in Karnataka to the holy land, travel a lot. There was worship every Thursday at our home. Always we had troubles and quarrels at home. Pilgrimages and all other efforts could not give us peace. With all these anxieties, my youngest daughter also fell sick. When we were totally depressed. Our neighbor gave words of hope. It was words of consolation that Jesus would give rest and peace to those who come to Him. My neighbor introduced the worker Mallesh that day and arranged for prayer. The Lord performed great miracles for me and my whole family. We received new life and healing through the blood that was shed at the cross. We are worshiping the Lord with 80 believers at Doddachelluru village, proclaiming only Jesus could give the peace that others could not give. Praise the Lord. � new believer Manjanna.

JESUS OUR SAVIOUR

I recently read about a person who established the best Christian organization in the world. The organization spread its branches to many countries. Many came to know about the Lord and help reached many people. But his daughter committed suicide. Days passed by, he divorced his wife. Life became empty and changed his character. He did not give importance to what really mattered.

Today many Christians commit the same mistake. Successful in their jobs but fail in their family life. Why does this happen? When we ponder we realize that in their spiritual life they are far away from God. In the same way, in families and churches the confusions arise due to trivial matters. These days the gospel ministries done by Churches are not Christ centered, not zealous to do God's will and not obeying the Word of God. Let us look at what Apostle Paul writes to the early church regarding this:

�For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit� (Romans 14:17). To all those who have accepted Christ, the Kingdom of God must be their priority. It is not the visible growth on the contrary it is the fellowship we have with God and love for one another.

1. It is easy to give importance to unimportant things.

Ray Stedman writes about a particular church in his book. During Christmas time one group wanted to have a Christmas tree in the church while the other objected, as it is not written in the Bible. One day Christmas tree was placed in the church but the other group threw it out. The groups fought with each other and the next day this incident was in the newspaper. What would have been the reaction of unbelievers? Consider the words of Jesus in Matthew 23:23-26.

Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also (Matt. 23:26). Consider what John says in John 18:28. �Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they themselves did not go into the Praetorium, lest they should be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.� They had one thought! They gave importance to the festival outwardly but were willing to crucify Jesus at the cross. We can see that these things are happening at our church. It reveals how we are standing far from Christ. In the Church there are many regulations, many traditions but where is Christ! There are beautiful buildings, chandeliers, perfect choir, festivals that we follow every year � but no Christ!

2. The Kingdom of God must be given importance

Paul writes about the kingdom of God only in the epistle to the Romans. What does he say? It is not the things we do to show ourselves as Christians

(Bible Study: Romans 14:13)

WHAT IS IMPORTANT?- Pon Subarson


because God has given freedom and liberty rather we are called to glorify the kingdom of God. It is easy if we understand the kingdom of God this way. And I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as my Father bestowed one upon me, (Luke 22:29). If there is kingdom then there must be a king. But God views the whole world as a kingdom. Jesus Christ is the king of kings (Psalm 2:6,7). Men are either in the kingdom of God or Satan (Matthew 4:8; 12:26). When we believe Him, we will be the citizens of His kingdom (Col. 1:13). We cannot inherit the kingdom of God being born in a Christian family, member of a church or have a position in the church. It is possible only when we are born again. Jesus replied, �Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again� (John 3:3).

If you are not sure of the kingdom of God then obey the voice of God. �The time has come,� he said. �The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!� (Mark 1:15).

When you accept Him, He will rule in your heart.

Though the kingdom of God is not visible today, He rules in the hearts of those who believe in Him. The people are added to His kingdom daily. Though they are in this world of sin they are members of the kingdom of God. After the second coming the whole world will be under His rule.

Beloved, where are you? What is your role in the kingdom of God? What do you give importance to? Ponder and rejoice about the kingdom of God.

�For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit� (Romans 14:17).

Field Worker's Dedication


GOD'S MINISTRYThe work that is started by Holy Spirit is the Lord's Work:

In Acts Chapter 2, the Holy Spirit descended on 120 people, who waited on the Lord in the upper room. At the same time, a great ministry also descended in their hearts. All of them were very simple people. None of them learnt under Gamaliel. They were not members of the Sanhedrin. They were very ordinary people! But in an instant, they started a mighty ministry. It is the Holy Spirit who started this ministry!

A loud noise � deafening, breaking down the house, could be heard by all the people of the town - the Holy Spirit came with the sound of a mighty rushing wind, a violent blast from heaven. Like �re � all could see in awe. Without the Holy Spirit, there is no God's ministry. All the people of Jerusa-lem heard this news and in few moments thronged there! That wonderful anointing of the Holy Spirit was the beginning of the Lord's work.

In the world there are many things created through man's wisdom, rage and greed but the Lord's ministry is far beyond human understanding and it is under the authority of the Holy Spirit.

In the ministry of the Holy Spirit there will be oneness.

In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke & John, we �nd the disciples opposing each other, arguing who is the greatest among them, wanted �re from heaven to burn those who opposed, slept while praying, stood far away when Christ was cruci�ed, hid behind closed doors � completely transformed in a moment!

From that moment they fearlessly proclaimed that Jesus is the Savior. Peter's preaching was so spontaneous and powerful thousands accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior.

As they were one in spirit, many miracles happened and souls were added to the kingdom of God.

Look at the house where husband and wife, children and parents live in unity! Churches, institutions and organizations, which work in one spirit! Oneness is a mighty power! Oneness means whatever we do will prosper! In houses, mission �elds, churches, and organizations there can be everything but no presence of the Holy Spirit when there is no unity.

What is the specialty of Vishwa Vani ministry? Oneness of heart!

In spite of all odds, problems, troubles and tears, as in Romans 8:28, �And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.� We are one in spirit.

Emil Annan's Special Feature republished from August 2006 Samarpan:


What is the plan of devil?

Separated Eve from the Lord of lords. In families bring discord between husband and wifethrough problems, anger, doubts.India has not become a super power as we are not uni�ed.This diversity is because we were divided kingdoms.

In our houses, churches, and in ministries if there is no oneness and there is no Holy Spirit and we are like the kings and kingdoms of this world. On our knees we must ask God for the reason. We must accept, reconcile and be blessed! If we harden our hearts our life, family, ministry and everything will be hollow.

One lakh villages, 20000 workers by 2020, Five villages for 1 missionary.

Will the enemy be happy to see the evil spirits in the one lakh villages be driven away and the Holy Spirit taking charge of those places?

To achieve this goal, in Vishwa Vani ministry we have to pray in one spirit for those one lakh villages. The devil can never triumph.

From the hearts of the DMDT leaders who take the responsibility of the district, the hard laboring workers, the partakers and also from the �elds we will hear the victorious cry, �Praise the Lord who gives us the Victory�.

If two or three gather in Jesus' name and prayer with oneness,Jesus is in their midst. Two in one mind,is the husband and wife.Three in one mind,is the believers, the church and the ministries!In the ministries of the Holy Spirit souls will abound!Without the Holy Spirit man's heart will not be broken.

What is the reason forpride, opposition, fault �nding, enmity, quarreling,and all evil nature is prevailing?There are all found because of the evil heart of man.

Without a change of heart the words from the mouth will not change! Without a broken heart there is no change in life. For man's heart to be changed even if he traverses the whole world seeking for a place and a way without the Holy Spirit , his heart will not change.

What does the Holy Spirit do?

He breaks man's heart.Humbles it and throws out the hidden pride.He empties the heart of all eviland �lls with the Holy Spirit.


The man who can't be bound with chains and tamed,becomes like a newborn baby when touched by the Holy Spirit.The world does not understand this transformation.

Changed hearts are different from changed religion.Change of heart is internal, Conversion is external.Change of heart is done only by the Holy Spirit!But change of religion takes placefor a sel�sh cause or to get some worldly bene�t or for marriage.

Vishwa Vani ministry in the one lakh villages is the Holy Spirit's work.It is going to be change of heart and not change of religion.

What is our prayer?What is our longing?

No one should perish!Hell should be empty.Heaven should be �lled with believers from India.If that is so, the lives of all those who pray, give, labor day and night should be always led by the Holy Spirit.Their lives should be led by the Spirit that �lled the upper room.The Holy Spirit will give souls more than we can imagine and pray!

He will help us seevillages getting transformedand all the one lakh villages will clap their handsand praise the Lord in the name of the Lord Jesus � Halleluiah!

GIFTS ARE FOR THE MINISTRYThere are different kinds of gifts but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work (1 Corinthians 12:4-6). The gifts are given for the ministry. Many are proud of their gifts, others pretend to have spiritual gifts, some misuse the gifts for selfish gains. In the Old Testament we read about a man who misused the gift for self-satisfaction and to threaten people. He is Samson. It is written many times that the �Spirit of the Lord came mightily on him�. When the Spirit came upon him, he became an extraordinary person and was able to kill thousands of his enemies. The enemies were afraid of him. This gave him confidence to go in the wrong path. Judges chapter 16 begins �One day Samson went to Gaza, where he saw a prostitute and went in to spend the night with her�. The Philistine army was waiting at the city gate to kill him in the morning. But what happened? In the middle of the night he got up and pulled out the doors of the city gate with it's two posts and bars, lifted them to his shoulders and carried to the top of the hill that faces Hebron. That is what is written and the Bible does not say anything about his enemies. But when we visualize what do we see? People who were waiting to kill him would have got up with fear awakened by the sound of uprooting of the city gates, terrified to see Samson carrying them to the mountain top. They would have followed him with fear. None of them dared to attack him with their weapons. What was the reason? Fear of his strength. Was the gift given to Samson for exhibiting his own strength or to destroy enemies? What should he use it for?Even today we see people exhibiting spiritual gifts to attract people for their selfish gains. Like Samson's enemies some are afraid of these spiritual leaders, there are also people who follow these leaders than following God. Deeds of spiritual gifts should not become a performance rather glorify God. The Holy Spirit shares the gift to the people. There are differences in the gifts. Likewise, there are differences in the ministry.DIFFERENT MINISTRIES:And God has placed in the church first of all apostles, prophets, preachers, working miracles, healing, serving, administrators, translators and so on. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles? (1 Cor. 12:28-29). The gifts are given to each one to accomplish their work. That is what Paul says �Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good� (1 Cor. 12:7). We see many ministries like medical, education, social development and pastoral. There is one ministry that is above all. When Paul talks about gifts, he tells that he will show a better way and then explains about love in 1 Corinthians chapter 13. Likewise, Paul talks about the most honorable ministry.HONORABLE MINISTRY:Paul tells about the honorable ministry that he has received from Lord Jesus Christ in

GOSPEL MINISTRY IS HONOURABLEGOSPEL MINISTRY IS HONOURABLEGOSPEL MINISTRY IS HONOURABLE- Rev. Emmanuel Gnanaraj, Director-Prayernet- Rev. Emmanuel Gnanaraj, Director-Prayernet- Rev. Emmanuel Gnanaraj, Director-Prayernet


2 Corinthians 3. We will not be discouraged as the ministry that we have received is honorable, trustworthy and glorious. Let us meditate on 2 Corinthians 3. Paul talks about the gifts in his first epistle to the Corinthians, in the second epistle he talks about his ministry, says he does not need commendation or verbal testimony about his ministry. Corinthians were his real commendations and written testimonials. This is the true gospel ministry. Paul compares the gospel ministry he has received from Christ to the covenant ministry Moses received from God.1. Gospel Ministry is the ministry of the new covenant: God made a covenant with Abraham through circumcision. This is the old covenant. The new covenant is made by the blood of Lord Jesus Christ. The blood was shed so that many will come to repentance. This is the glorious ministry.2. Gospel Ministry is the Ministry of Revival: The Ministry that was given to Moses was a written ministry. The Law was written and given. Those who disobeyed were punished. But the ministry that is given by Jesus Christ is the gospel ministry and is spiritual ministry. It is a revival ministry. The sinner is made new by the blood of Jesus Christ. Man dead in sin receives new life in Christ. This is a honorable ministry. 3. Gospel Ministry is the Ministry of Righteousness: The ministry that was given through Moses gave punishment. The Law is against us and gives us punishment. But this was nailed at the cross. Jesus disarmed principalities and powers. He made public spectacle of them, triumphing over them (Col. 2:13-15). This is gospel. We also read this in Romans 3 : 23, 24. We are redeemed by Christ and made righteous. This is gospel, honorable ministry. This honorable ministry is given to all those who believe and accepted Jesus Christ. Let us honor this ministry.


The muscles at the bottom of my stomach were cramped and so I was bedridden for the past one and half years. Even when I move, I have terrible pain! I took so many

treatments but there was no relief. I was in great pain as my life has become bedridden at the prime age of 25. I was in despair thinking about the future of my 2 infants.

At that time we sent message to the worker in Thaliklwng Kami village. He was involved in the construction of the church for the �eld people who have received new life in Lord Jesus Christ. Without any delay, he came and prayed. He said that the Lord will raise you as a living witness before the dedication of the church. The Words that I listened from worker Biswajit: there is

healing in the Word of God, there is deliverance in the name of God and there is power in healing through the stripes of Jesus Christ. On 9/6/17 the church dedication day, I stood up without anybody's help, walked to the church and shared the power of God as the t es t imony w i th t he people . I thank the worker who prayed for me. Praise God who has given me divine healing.

Beloved children of God, our developing nation India has blessings which even superpowers and developed nations don't have. The name of our country is mentioned twice in the Holy Bible (Esther 1:1; 8:9). Though there are 6500 languages in the world, 1721 languages are from India. 4635 people groups are spread in India. Our population is reaching more than 132 crores. Among them 72.2% are in villages! Yes, our India is living in villages!

Though we see many churches and missionaries in cities and towns, in villages there is not even one missionary, have not heard the gospel even once, not a single church in the whole taluk � that's the poor state of our country even today. Better standard of living, social transformation, rural development, economic stability, �unity in diversity�, love, joy, peace can be experienced only at the cross of Jesus. It is only the blood of Jesus that can wash away the sins.

Youngsters who have realized this in their heart and have received salvation are joining Vishwa Vani ministry as fulltime workers. They go to villages where no other organizations or workers have gone. They preach in their native language. They have the vision to make the villages of India experience the prosperity and they work for it. These workers, who throw their nets into the deep, need the prayers and support of the Indian believers.

The native workers have the grace to transform these neglected places into a blessing! All those who believe experience deliver-ance! Cleansing of souls! Those who were in darkness came into light � they were released from Satan, world, and the traps of �esh

HOW GOD'S MINISTRY IS BEING FULFILLEDIN THE NEEDY VILLAGES?

The N

eed C

alls I have received forgiveness of sins, eternal and holy life through Jesus Christ

our Lord. I understand that many villages in my country have not heard about the salvation through Jesus Christ and Vishwa Vani Ministry is toiling to make His name known to all my countrymen.

I agree to give Rs. 3000/- towards the ministry expenditure of the village every month. I pledge to collect the amount Rs. 3000/- from __________ believers, each who contribute Rs. _____________.

I am already giving Rs. ___________ every month. But this month onwards I am willing to donate Rs. ______________ more.

I shall support the ministry by receiving a saving box and donate Rs. 600/- every six months.

Out of Rs. 6.5 lacs needed for a church building construction I pledge to give Rs. ________________ as my share for ________ months.


� they have the desire to seek God � those who are touched by the Seekers' Meetings � the hearts that are strengthened through the Word of God � those hearts that received life at the Mount of Calvary � humbly accepted the sacrament of baptism � healed by the stripes of Jesus � those drawn by the love of Calvary � they are the �rst generation believers � they are gathered at the �eld churches and worship. They see the church! They are interested not only to worship the Lord with their whole heart but also to proclaim Him. They share the gospel with the neighboring villages as elders and small group leaders of the �eld church. They attend the L.E.G. centers. They receive more grace than that is imagined and asked for because they confess their unworthi-ness and the Holy Spirit is working among them. The plan of God is ful�lled in the nation.

We see complete social transformation in the villages where churches are built. Though there are situations in the �elds where they are like lambs among wolves (Lk. 10:3), they face quietly, bear the tribulations leaning only on cruci�ed Christ. In the end we see opportunities favoring the gospel!

We strongly believe that in one lakh villages gospel will be proclaimed because of the open doors we see these days. It is because of the 'Macedonian call' that we receive from the people groups! God is using Vishwa Vani to reach out to one lakh ten thousand souls , on an average 800 faith confession services in the �elds every month. This ministry humbly prays that the Lord grant grace to reach one lakh villages!

Dear children of God, we have open doors for the gospel; we have the trifold approach �Prayer Partners � Working Representatives � Involving Ministry Partners. The harvest is waiting for all those who obey the Triune God's guidance. Come, let us move forward with the vision. May your whole hearted resolutions help us take the good news to the remote places!

Praise the Lord. The Holy Spirit who works at all places where the gospel is preached will give abundant harvest. Yes, as the souls are confessing their faith, many souls are added to the church daily! Glory to His great name.

When the number of believers at a village increases to 10, they gather at the streets � near the houses of the workers � under the shade � verandas of schools and worship the Lord whole heartedly. Likewise when the number of people who worship the Lord in a village reaches 60 we take efforts to build a church. Believers who are led by the Lord donate for the construction of the church. The neighboring villages are also blessed through the ministry.

Praise the Lord for the 63 churches that were dedicated during the �rst 7 months in the year 2017. We also thank the Lord for the families that were used by the Lord to raise them. We have decided in the Lord to dedicate by the month of March the 89 churches that are under construction. Please pray. May the Lord do mighty thing in the nation.

CHURCHES THROUGH MINISTRY; MINISTRY THROUGH CHURCHES!

Pray for the 89 fields where

church building construction

is going on. Also please pray

for the 60 fields waiting for

church buildings.

May the Lord give us the

grace to start the church

building construction before

the end of this year.
