US evangelist shares the love of Christ in prayer crusade in India

New Delhi – Popular US evangelist, Pat Robertson, recently took part in a prayer crusade in New Delhi, and brought the message of hope to countless Indians by sharing the love of Christ with them.

The venue was the famous Ram Leela Stadium, New Delhi and the programme was conducted by renowned Indian evangelist, Dr. DGS Dinakaran.

With no prepared notes to rely on, and just the Holy Spirit, Pat did what he does every day in America and has done so countless times around the world – help the Good News find its way into the hearts of Indians who had gathered there to listen to the Word of God.

In a night that was filled with blessings and miracles, Pat Roberton invited the people to receive the Lord, saying, “Tonight, if you want to serve the Lord, I want to you to stand up where you are and I want to pray for you.”

And, before leaving the stage, Pat said a special prayer, blessing those who were willing to stand in the gap for their nation.

During the program, many came forward to testify to what God had done in their lives.

Pat Robertson is no stranger to India. For years, he has used CBN and Operation Blessing to minister God's love to countless Indian people.

“I feel that these most beautiful people, they are so hungry for God. You know this is the largest democracy in the world, over a billion people, and perhaps this would be considered the most religious country on earth. But they are looking for the wrong God. I believe they are open to Jesus, and my hope is to see 100 million Indians come to the Lord Jesus Christ in the next few years,” he shared.

Presently, CBN is launching a new effort to reach one of India's most oppressed people groups who are known as the Untouchables, or Dalits.

“There are 300 million of these people [who] have been condemned to the lowest kind of poverty and degradation, primarily on the color of their skin. And I believe that they want to know the answer, that they are not doomed by false religion to a life of just degradation and misery. So we are making a major, major thrust to the Dalits, that they might hear the Good News of the Gospel,” Pat Robertson said, adding that though on almost every street corner, one can find spirituality on sale, “only one message can bring people here and find eternal peace.”

“The thing that is important is God, the author of all the Earth took on flesh and He loved people so much that He became flesh, and He died as a human being, and rose again. That message transcends all cultures and all religions, and I think it will win the hearts of the Indian people," he continued.

And, it did on that night in New Delhi as more than half of those in attendance committed their lives to Christ.
