Please pray for people of Kerala, SW India.  Monsoon is heavy,low-lying areas are flooded, people can’t go to work and an epidemic of viral fever has spread such that people can’t walk, have giddiness or headaches–symptoms vary so much that the state government asked the central government to help them.  People are dying every day. Many people are afraid, hospitals are filled with thousands of patients and have insufficient medical staff.  Believers are also affected.

Please have the people pray for deliverance.

Rajasthan state of India is under a party in line with orthodox Hindu activists.  Hindus who get baptized into Christianity can lose jobs, lose inheritances, have spouses taken from them, be evicted from their rented homes, be physically attacked.  In spite of this, Konar Singh has now started eight churches and preaching points in the greater Jaipur area.

He’s got 123 Spirit-filled, but only 12 baptized.  Thanks for these twelve, and pray that God will give the other boldness to be baptized despite the persecution, and that God will give them miracles as signs to the Hindus that Jesus is the One True God.

Here are some more testimonies from Rajasthan:

1.  In three months, we reached many people, who received Jesus as Savior and received the Holy Spirit baptism.  In Sanjay Nagar, we shared God’s Word with a man bound by disease many years.  He received Jesus, I place my hand on his head, prayed for him, and he was healed in Jesus’ name.  He praised the Lord and received the Holy Spirit.

2.  One man asked us to pray for his family–a carnal Christian family who never attended church, had no peace, and his wife and 3 children were all ill.  After I prayed for them, they are now well and attend the church.

3.  A family from Jalpaiguri (in Eastern India) settled down to Jaipur more than 20 years ago.  The husband received Jesus and was baptized in Jesus name.  His wife and two children also received Jesus but haven’t been baptized yet.  Please pray for the family.

I’ve reached many people–they are happy to receive Jesus, but worried to take baptism for fear of persecution.  Pray God will touch hearts so they’ll understand God’s Word and power.

Sincerely,
Konarsing
