Our History
The Lord called Dr. Rodrick Gilbert in 1984 for the ministry. He went through the failure to see the salvation of souls he desperately was looking for. Finally, once totally defeated he offered himself to be mentored by an elderly man of God pastor PS Samuel, who led him through the journey of waiting upon the Lord for deeper intimacy. Out of this impartation, the vision to plant house fellowships in the slums in Delhi was born. Later through the mentoring of many renowned servants of God specifically Dr. Curtis Sargent, a house church movement began. The work started from scratch in 1992 and has seen over 660,000 baptized disciples, 56,000 Churches, and 55,000 volunteers to lead them. This movement known as MOD operates in 15 states in India. The Lord increased the influence of the leadership further, which resulted in forming the Tyrannous Alliance, a network of over 2,000 grassroots level leaders including over 40 ministries. Simultaneously the input also spilled into several other countries like Nepal, Western Europe (Mainly, Italy, Switzerland, Spain, France, and Germany – In partnership with the local ministries).
As a result, the need was felt to form a Non-Profit Evangelical organization in the US to function as a cover to support the operations all over as the Lord would spread the work. Thus, the Ministry to the Nations was registered in the state of Washington in the United States of America.
The Ministry to the Nations seeks to see the Gospel of the Kingdome preached into the whole world as a testimony to all the Nations (Ethnic groups – Matt 24:14) which means the churches planted all over through making multiplying disciples (2Timothy 2:2) and multiplying leaders. This initiative is based on the belief, we need to fulfill the great commission (Matthew 29:18-19) to hasten the return of the day of God 2 Peter 3:12. To see the above happen, Ministry to the Nations makes itself available to catalyze the vision, expand connections to form growing networks, train leadership at all levels. It further seeks to empower them to extend the training to others and initiate and expand the blasting network of intercessors for spiritual warfare. We believe the mechanism to achieve the maturity of the Disciples to be able to reproduce, a strong Fivefold Ministry input (Ephesians 4:11) is required. The result of the practice of the fivefold ministry is the Devine encounters through healings, deliverances, dreams, and visions. These provide a sharp cutting edge to the harvest drive.
