Ray and Wilma Phipps: Doing What Jesus Did in India!

Ray and Wilma Phipps

By Tom Shanklin For Ray and Wilma Phipps, life has been an amazing adventure and demonstration of God’s supernatural intervention and power. It began in 1946, when Ray was 11 years old. He had a vision while at a prayer meeting in a country church near Venus, Nebraska, where his father was pastor. As Ray knelt to pray with the others, he was transported out of his body and into the atmosphere above the earth. He saw the earth as a huge globe below him that seemed to be real and alive. The Lord’s presence … Continue reading

A promise for victory in your family, in your business, in your ministry? Salvation for a loved one. Healing for your body or mind or the manifestation of some unfulfilled dream in your life?

The Ministry of the Evangelist

The following is an excerpt from Tom Shanklin’s book, You Can Touch the World. “Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.” Acts 8:5, KJV.  Now, let’s look more closely at the ministry of the evangelist. The message of the evangelist is “Christ and Him crucified.” It’s the message of the Messiah, the Savior of the world. It’s the message that “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son…” This is the predominant message of the evangelist. This is where his ministry functions most effectively. … Continue reading

The Gospel of Healing

By Tom Shanklin In the Gospel of John, chapter 10, verse 10, Jesus says, “I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly.” He doesn’t just say that he came to give us life, but He makes a special point to say “…and that they might have it more abundantly.” Jesus makes it very clear that he has come to give us not just life, but abundant life. He didn’t come to give us misery on earth, while we wait for the train to glory. No, the Gospel … Continue reading

Miracle Power in India

“The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.” Matthew 4:16, KJV. God has blessed us with wonderful fruit from our recent crusades and seminars in Andhra Pradesh, Southern India on Feb. 2-16. Night after night hungry hearts flooded the altar to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, as God confirmed His Gospel with mighty signs and wonders. This strange land, full of dark traditions and mystic deceptions is slowly seeing the light of the glorious Gospel of … Continue reading

Forgive and Get Free!

By Tom Shanklin Forgiveness is one the greatest and most freeing of all Christian graces. Perhaps the preeminent example of forgiveness can be seen by Jesus at Calvary as He prayed for those who had nailed Him to the cross, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” (Luke 23:34, NKJV) The first martyr, Stephen, followed suit with a prayer for the crowd around him, as he was stoned to death, “Lay not this sin to their charge.” Those receiving his prayer included early church persecutor, Saul of Tarsas, who later was … Continue reading

Setting Up a Roadblock to the Road to Hell in India

By Tom Shanklin As I am writing this, I am sitting in a 6 1/2 by 7 foot room in the city of Sirisilla, Andhra Pradesh, Southern India, north of the city of Hyderabad. It’s January 17th, my second morning in India. My experience at the moment is primarily auditory, because there are no windows in the room. Outside I hear a cow bellowing. Someone is beating a drum. Someone else is blowing his whistle. Horns are blasting. Motorcycles are speeding by, but more about that later. After approximately 30 hours of traveling from my … Continue reading

Testimonies, May, 2007

A woman from Southeastern Minnesota writes: “Thank you for your ministry to us. My eye is healed and my husband’s shoulder feels better. The Word of God is powerful unto salvation, healing, deliverance and restoration.” A Minnesota woman writes, “When the altar call was given after you spoke, I went up front. After an absolute attack from every corner, emotionally and physically, this opportunity for prayer was as welcome as a drop of water to a parched man in the desert. I said simply “Lay it on me. I need it from the top of … Continue reading
