Gospel for Asia: Prayer for Whatever it Takes

WILLS POINT, TX – Gospel for Asia (GFA, www.gfa.org) founded by Dr. K.P. Yohannan – Discussing national missionary’s labor of faith to bring villages to Jesus, the persecution believers faced, even being hindered to build a church, and the faithfulness of God through it all.

Pastor Sudhir Marak strolled into the village and immediately recognized its poverty. It was seeping from the walls of every home and was evident in the children who ran past him to go to the fields to work. The families struggled for survival with no education, medical facilities or transportation. But Sudhir had Good News to give them, and even when the villagers rejected Sudhir’s message, it just took one woman for them to listen.

Pastor Shares for More Than One Year

Pastor Sudhir began sharing Christ’s love by visiting homes and encouraging people from the Bible. He prayed for those who were sick, leaving families that witnessed a healing wondering who Jesus is.

Yet for each person Pastor Sudhir prayed with, it seemed there was someone else accusing him and telling him not to come back.

Still, this did not discourage Sudhir, and he continued to visit the families that would receive him. He prayed and saw miracles happen. But at the end of the year, those who had come to believe in Jesus feared the consequences of publicly confessing their faith.
