TV Ministry Changes Lives
Here are some of the letters we have received from listeners to our television program,
God's True Light, hosted by Pastor Elisha Rao.
Ajeebu—Daughter. Rahmathi—Mother.
Ajeebu met with an accident. Rahmatbi became seriously ill and
was bed-ridden. Both were afraid of death and rejection of family
members.
They Prayed to Allah for healing for one whole year—no improvement
Later, on the advice of neighbors they turned to Hindu gods and
temples, but there was no improvement.
Suddenly, very early one morning, they turned on the TV and began
searching for a Telegu, Christian channel to watch. They found
the Subhavartha channel. God’s True Light program had just started,
with Pastor Elisha Rao speaking. This morning he had been impressed
to talk about “What the God of the Bible is really like.”
Before, we had heard about Jesus, but thought He was a prophet of some
kind. But the pastor told us that He is very God, the one and
the only God, and there is no other! He read verses from the
Bible showing us that He is eternal and all powerful, and nothing
is impossible for Him. Whatever we ask Him, He will do for us.
The pastor urged us to try Him. We didn’t know how to pray, so
we simply closed our eyes and talked to Jesus. In two days both
my Mother and I were healed. This convinces us that Jesus is the
true God.
Please pray that all our family members and relatives
will become believers and worshippers of Jesus Christ. Please
pray for our Salvation and our health and happiness.
Maseedbibee, Basha — Husband — from Hyderabad, Capitol
Before New Year’s Day January 1, 2009 we had so many troubles!
My Husband was a drunkard and went after other women, contracted
sexual diseases, became bed ridden and was suffering very much.
From News Year's Day we started watching the Good News Telegu
Christian Channel, especially God’s True Light programs.
Ever since we started watching that TV program, which always
explains about Jesus, we have found great comfort and peace.
After watching the GTL program for several months, we accepted
Jesus as our God and Savior. Now we regularly pray to Him. Jesus
is answering our prayers, and is taking our troubles and other
problems away! Since we have accepted Jesus as our God, our relatives
and community members are treating us like outcasts.
Please pray that we will remain strong in our new faith,
and can be good fearless witnesses to those who treat us in an
unkind way. Please also pray that our health will continue to
be good.
Jonah Babu — Amalapuram, Andhra Pradesh
I received a Bachelor’s Degree from the Evangelical Bible
College, Hyderabad, and Capitol of A.P.
While I was in College I felt the burden to be a missionary
to Himachal Pradesh, another state in northern India. Many of
my friends and classmates are working in some of the other northern
states of India, where the Gospel is not welcome.
I along with many of my fellow missionaries, here in northern
India, are thrilled and encouraged by watching God’s True Light
TV program each Friday morning at 5:50.
We never knew anything about the end-time messages found
in the Bible. The College never had any classes on those subjects.
We are very thankful and happy that Pastor Elisha Rao is giving
these subjects on the TV Program God’s True Light. We are very
thankful to the TV Station, and the sponsors for telecasting
such urgent, relevant messages for our time!
Please pray for my wife Usha and my son Sandesh and daughter
Sheela, as we serve as a family team in a purely Hindu state
along the foothills of the Himalayan Mountain ranges.
Emmanuel, from Kakinada, Ramaraopet
I am a student Pastor from GR Larne Bible College
I have been very much enriched by the God’s True Light
TV messages! What we are not learning from the Bible College,
many of us are learning from your TV programs.
Many of us here at the College are REALLY enjoying your messages!
We find that we are spiritually strengthened and drawn closer
to God. We also feel like we are being prepared to be good Bible
gospel workers through your TV training.
Please pray that God will help us to really understand the
Bible-based truths that you are presenting over Subhavartha Channel.
Please pray that the Lord will help me find a good, God-fearing,
truly converted girl to be united in marriage with.
Please pray that the dear Lord will guide us into what and
where He wants our ministry to be in the future.
