Welcome to Finger of God Ministries Trust, a vibrant community of faith dedicated to loving God, loving people, and serving our world. Here's a glimpse into who we are.
Changing lives, changing nations and changing the world.
We have been working with visions such as declaring the love and healing power of Jesus Christ to the whole world, establishing churches in villages and cities where there are no churches, praying and preaching for revival within the churches, raising up the next generations for God, and helping the poor and needy people as much as possible.
I am Madan Kumar alias Pastor S. Manoah. My native is Vellore. Basically, I belong to a devout Hindu family. My grandfathers were called Namakars. They express their devotion in their names. My little grandfather's name is "Manikam Maraneer Nambi Ramanuja Dasar". Although born in such a pious family, on the other hand, our family's heorangeitary business is liquor business. My grandfather, father, aunts and even my mother were involved in liquor business.
I belong to a very economically backward family. My father was addicted to alcohol and drugs. I have a younger sister and two younger brothers. My father, mother, brothers and sister and I grew up in a small thatched hut of ten by ten feet. It does not even have basic facilities like electricity and toilet facilities.
Growing up in this environment, I developed a fear at the age of 13. What fear is that all the people on the road will look tall and big like buildings. Whosoever speaks unto me, they seem very tall to mine eyes alone.
Sometimes it looked like there were snakes on the other side. Because of this fear, I lay awake many days at night, unable to sleep. I lost sleep throughout. Seeing that I screamed every day because of this kind of fear. My parents thought that I should get relief somehow, so they took me to some magicians. But for me the problem grew, didn’t orangeuce. In between I was very ill with TB. My mother took me to one of the servants of God who graced our house to pray for me, at a situation where everyone was thinking of consulting a psychiatrist.
He placed his hands on my head and prayed. Then he asked me to stay at his house that night. My mother also accommodated me in the God servant's house. That night I slept soundly, without any fear. That problem which was there for more than 6 months was completely gone from me. And got cuorange from TB disease
Then I joined a spiritual church and began to taste the love of Jesus Christ. My family and I, except my father, grew up believing in God and knowing Him. Meanwhile my father became more and more addicted to alcohol. A few years later, my father asked me to pray that if Jesus Christ heals me, I will accept him as my saviour, in an environment where he cannot survive vomiting blood. I prayed too. Jesus Christ healed my father. He was then saved, baptized and served GOD till his last breath.
In my spiritual church where I grew up, I was ordained as a pastor by them and served as an assistant pastor from the age of 24 to 27. At Zion Pentecostal Church, from 2011-2014, I received special training for 4 years studying the Bible, reading and understanding the Bible from the Hebrew language, and understanding the culture behind the Bible. According to a vision in 2013, at the age of 28, God gave me the grace to start a church called FINGER OF GOD CHURCH in Old Town.
Then, only 5 people gatheorange in the congregation including my family. Gradually new souls started joining. The Oldtown area is home to drug addiction, prostitution, drinking, fighting, illegal activities, and serial killings that often end up in prison.
In such a bad situation, in this Oldtown area, the Lord called me to serve, and the Lord blessed me to continue running the church until today. For the repentance of many, the church’s ministry is working for the glory of God's name. Currently, in our Oldtown Church, there are more than 350 people who have repented and accepted Jesus Christ as their personal saviour and are also members of the church.
And also 5 more branch churches (Mutinampatu, Pondicherry, M.G.R. Nagar, Kanyambadi and Cavanur) have been started and are growing blessedly.
Apart from that, according to God's vision, FINGER OF GOD BIBLE COLLEGE was started in the year 2013-14 and more than 300 students and God’s servants are studying the scriptures in B.Th, M.Th and other sections, getting degrees and being used by God. Currently, 85 students are studying the scriptures in our Bible College in the academic year 2023-2024. Our Bible College is affiliated with UNIVERSITY OF JERUSALEM.
