Pastor Robin Almeida is back from a very fruitful outreach at Gujarat. The people of Gujarat eagerly received the Good News through Pastor’s anointed preaching, were healed of many sicknesses and many were delivered. On the morning of the 1st of January 2010, he ministered to a group of 3500 people at Songard. That same evening, he ministered to a group of 3000 people at Gamlagaon. On the 2nd morning, 1800 people received the Word and were blessed with healing and deliverance at the site of the Narmada Dam.
As the state of Gujarat has a history of violent reactions toward the preaching of the Good News and many preachers have been killed, we praise and thank the living Lord Jesus and our Father God, that no anti social elements were able to disrupt any of the services. We pray that the seed sown will penetrate deep into the hearts of those who attended and that they in turn will be powerfully used by the Lord to spread the message throughout Gujarat.

TESTIMONY
KAMLA RAMCHANDRA PISSAL
I was suffering from a stomach problem that caused me severe pain. I underwent 5 operations for this, after which a large lump appeared on my right side that would keep moving from one side to the other as I turned while lying down. As there was no pain, I did not go back for any more medical treatment, but lived with this problem for 16 years. Then I began attending the Prayer Services of The Master’s Touch Healing Center at Powai. After five Sundays, the lump completely disappeared. Praise The Lord!

TESTIMONY
SUSHILA MANE
I suffered from breast cancer for almost a year and had even undergone chemotherapy. But in spite of that, I was told that I would have to undergo an operation. I began attending the Sunday Services at the IES School Hall, Powai and on hearing other people’s testimonies and Pastor Robin’s preaching, I believed that Jesus would heal me without an operation. I was taught how to pray daily and was also told by one of the counselors that I had to forgive the people who had hurt me because Jesus had commanded us to forgive as He forgives us. So I began to do that daily. The lump on my breast started going down and eventually disappeared completely. On December 5th, I went to the doctor for a check-up and was told that there was no more trace of the cancer! I gave this testimony at the Sunday Service the next day and everyone praised Jesus for this mighty miracle. Pastor Robin asked me to show him the doctor’s report which I would get the following Monday. I will be showing it to him at the next Sunday Service on December 13th. Praise the Lord!

TESTIMONY
MALAN PANDURANG TRIBHUVAN
I was at the Sunday Service of the Master’s Touch Healing Center at Milind Nagar, Powai, with my two young-adult daughters. We were attending the service for the first time. During the service, Pastor Robin announced that there was a lady there who had been burdened by problems with her children for many years and that this lady should come up on stage because the Lord wanted to bless her. I knew it referred to me, so I went up and both my daughters followed me. As I spoke to Pastor about my family problems, one of my daughters came forward and Pastor prayed for her to be filled with the Holy Spirit. No sooner was this done, than my daughter, unable to stand in one place, began moving like a drunk person, back and forth from one end of the stage to the other. Finally, Pastor Robin called for a chair and one of his assistants helped her onto it.
My other daughter Suvarna had come up to testify that a longstanding lump on her neck for which she had been operated on twice, but without success, had now gone down. This problem had existed since she was 3 years old and now she is 21. As she stood waiting at the far end of the stage, Pastor invited her to come forward. But she seemed to have been taken by sudden shyness and turned the other way, hiding her face. Pastor immediately recognized it as an evil spirit holding her in bondage and requested his assistant to bring her to him. He gently took hold of her arm and helped her to come toward Pastor. Even when she stood right before him, she hid her face in her hands and could not look at him. So he addressed the spirit directly, commanding it to look at him. The spirit seemed to get agitated and screamed out that it could not. Pastor then commanded it in the Name and by the Blood of Jesus to leave Suvarna. The spirit immediately threw her to the floor. Pastor sat on the ground and continued to command it and after some amount of struggle to retain its hold, it left her. When she was helped up, my daughter was a totally different person. Full of smiles, she was happy to look at Pastor and kept thanking him profusely for having delivered her. She also acknowledged with gratitude that I, her mother had been her greatest support and had borne the brunt of all her problems for the past 18 years.
None of us had the slightest inkling, until that Sunday when Pastor Robin delivered my daughter Suvarna, that her problem and all the family problems we faced for so many years, were due to evil spirits. We are all very grateful to him. But we are especially grateful to Jesus through whose power, love and mercy my daughter was delivered. We will continue to attend the services to learn more about this wonderful Savior Jesus Christ!

QUESTION AND ANSWER
Why do Church folk sometimes backslide and even leave the Church?
There may be several reasons for it, but one of the most outstanding is that they first came with the idea that Jesus would take away all their troubles instantly. They thought that He would immediately heal their sicknesses and remove all hardships and difficulties from their lives. Perhaps they were lured into coming to a church service with these promises that got reinforced when preachers pointed out various scripture passages confirming this belief, but without any mention of the cross that Jesus expects us to carry. So when such people wait in expectation for the promised 'bed of roses’ type of life and instead find that after being born again, the thorns seem to be increasing, they disappointedly fall away.
Every word of the Good News is true and we can expect to experience every one of the wonderful promises we find in the Bible. But we often fail to understand that all these great promises have very precise conditions attached to them. For example, Jesus says in Mt. 16:24, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.” Denying ourselves means putting God and His interests before our own personal plans. It means renouncing the control of our lives and everything that boosts our ego, to be subject to the Lordship of Jesus and to live in complete obedience to His will and plan for our lives. This may be a very difficult and painful process as it means moving away from the kind of thinking we were born and brought up in and the system under which the entire world operates. In the world system “I” am the center of all my plans and activities. Therefore, being a disciple of Jesus makes us enemies of the world and may even attract persecution as our Lord and Master Himself was persecuted and brutally killed on a cross.
We are expected to carry our own crosses, the painful situations we may find ourselves in, because of following Jesus. But we should do so with praise and rejoicing, knowing that our present difficult pathway is leading us to eternal life and eternal glory. Jesus says in Mt. 16:26, “For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels and then He will reward each according to his works.” In other words, we will be abundantly rewarded for our faithfulness in remaining with Jesus, carrying out His will and praising and worshipping Him in all circumstances.
If we choose to be friends of the world and what we perceive to be the easier life, we may gain material wealth and worldly acclaim. But as we can easily observe from looking around us, it is just short-lived and the absence of true peace and joy is very evident because the world cannot satisfy our souls. Jesus says in Mt. 16:26, “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” So the choice between following Jesus while carrying our cross and being friends of the “world”, is ultimately a choice between life and death. If we don’t carry our cross and follow Jesus, the cross will carry us! Satan can easily steal the material wealth that is not used for the Kingdom of God, through the torture of mental stress, sicknesses and other calamities. But the peace, joy and health that Jesus gives to His followers are treasures stored up in Heaven that can never be destroyed.
In John 16:33, Jesus says, “In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Praise the Lord!
