Timeline of Faith — The Journey of Evangelist Ankit Rambabu
1. Timeline of Faith — The Journey of Evangelist Ankit RambabuBirthed and Forged in the Flames of Revival
Many have lit the fires of revival, but Evangelist Ankit was born in it. The legacy of his father etched a powerful example in his spirit of a man driven to shake the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ at any cost. In the early days of Evangelist Ankit’s life, he was right by his father’s side seeing the power of Jesus heal the sick, cast out devils, and save the lost on a massive scale.Even as a child, Evangelist Ankit’s heart was set on the things of God. One day he saw something that would change the trajectory of his future. A South African minister was preaching, and he began to cry out, “God, I want Your fire!” People were being thrown across the room and hit by the power of God, and Evangelist Ankit saw it and thought, “I want that.” So, in every one of his father’s services and prayer meetings, that is all that little Evangelist Ankit would think about. He would cry out in a loud voice, “God, I want Your fire!” Finally, the day came when he got it. While his father was holding a prayer meeting at their home, Evangelist Ankit crawled under the table and began to cry out, “God, I want Your fire!” Suddenly, the power of God rushed in to meet him, and he was overwhelmed, weeping and laughing until the wee hours of the morning. Ever since, that very fire has been burning in and through him, touching millions around the globe for the sake of the Gospel.
2. The Call to Ministry
When Evangelist Ankit made the decision at just 12 years old to do whatever it took to carry and spread revival, he had no idea how swiftly and profoundly the Lord would answer. One ordinary day at school, as he listened to his teacher address the class, something extraordinary happened—he suddenly went deaf in both ears. He could no longer hear a single word being spoken.Then, a thunderous Voice broke through the silence, shaking him to the core:The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.The Voice echoed again and again, resonating deeply within him. Overwhelmed, Evangelist Ankit began to weep in the middle of the classroom. His teachers, unable to understand what was happening, feared he was losing his mind and called his parents to take him home.But Evangelist Ankit knew exactly what had happened—he had heard the unmistakable Voice of the Lord. That moment left an indelible mark on his life. To this day, those words continue to fuel the eternal flame burning within him.From that moment forward, Evangelist Ankit stepped into full-time ministry—and India was set ablaze with the fire of God. The Lord moved mightily, drawing in millions. Even as government efforts sought to silence the Gospel, the crowds only grew—hungry for Jesus, the One who heals, delivers, and sets free. Night after night, stadiums overflowed with as many as 250,000 people. Some traveled for days by foot or by bus. Thousands received instant miracles—blind eyes opened, crippled legs leapt and walked, and organs were miraculously recreated. Over the course of his ministry in India, more than 7.25 million souls came to salvation in Jesus Christ.
3. The Heavenly Mandate for America
In the year 2020, the Lord cast a vision before Evangelist Ankit that would alter his life forever. He was standing before a multitude of people that stretched across the horizon, as of a vast ocean, in the great nation of India. As he gave the altar call, the dust rose as an army of people marched down the aisles to commit themselves to the One True Living God.As he was engulfed in this breathtaking scene, the vast scenery changed before his eyes. Instead of seeing the faces of Indians coming down the aisles, in the blink of an eye, the scene changed—and he saw the faces of Americans swarming to the altar. Right before him stood the masses in America, giving their lives to Jesus.Then he heard the Voice of the Lord say: For America has sown the seed of revival into the nations of the earth. I Am God, and I Am no man’s debtor.I will bring back the very harvest of seed America has sown into the nations of the earth. You will go with power, and they will listen.Those words were etched into Evangelist Ankit’s heart with an eternal flame, and he decided that day to follow God’s Call to America—no matter the price he had to pay. He gave up everything he had in India—his ministry, home, wealth, and family—all for the call. America has sown revival throughout the earth, and now is the time for the harvest.
4. Early Days of ARB Ministries
ARB Ministries was born, but in the beginning, there were days when circumstances did not line up with what was in Evangelist Ankit’s spirit. As the ministry launched in America, COVID-19 broke out, shutting down churches and Christian gatherings. He went from preaching to hundreds of thousands of people in India to standing before a crowd of 80 in Costa Mesa, California.Evangelist Ankit made a vow:If this is what God has called me to do for the rest of my life, I will do it faithfully.Then, everything exploded, and the growth has been exponential:
Year One: more than 10,000 attended
Year Two: more than 23,000 attended
Year Three: more than 43,000 attended
Year Four: more than 66,000 attended
From 2020 to now, over 177,000 people have been in attendance, more than 36,000 have given their lives to Jesus, over 17,000 have received a miracle, and the lives of multitudes have been transformed forever.Through one man’s surrender, America is seeing revival. Evangelist Ankit—now joined by his wife, Evangelist Jessica, and a dedicated team at ARB Ministries—is taking territory for the Kingdom city by city. What began as a vision has ignited into a move of God across the nation.The blind see, the deaf hear, the lame walk, the incurable is cured, the oppressed are set free, and the lost are saved. No matter what need came, God provided abundantly. No matter the persecution or resistance, God made a way to victory. This is only the beginning of all the Lord has promised Evangelist Ankit He will do in America.
Evangelist Ankit is determined to go after the harvest of souls until the day of Jesus Christ’s return. He is not looking to be the only one to spark the embers of the next great spiritual awakening. In every city in America, God is raising an army of people full of the flame of the Holy Ghost to boldly carry the Gospel all over the earth. Local churches are being edified, empowered, and set ablaze with the Fire of God. United as the Body of Christ, we shall see America saved!
5. How Tent of Miracles Was Born and is Shaking America Today
In November 2022, seemingly out of nowhere, the Lord told Evangelist Ankit that he needed to do a crusade in Lakeland, Florida. At first, he thought this would just be another simple church meeting, but that was not the case. Similar to everything else that the Lord is in, He far exceeded Evangelist Ankit’s expectations.The crusade felt so big in his spirit. He knew a church building was not the right setting for it. He looked into stadiums and other large venues for availability, yet nothing worked out. Nothing was big enough to fit what he felt in his spirit.Sitting in his office, frustrated, Evangelist Ankit told the Lord they needed a larger place and reminded Him of the call He had given him to go to Lakeland. Why, then, were the logistics not coming together?
AND THEN THE LORD SAID…“Go get a tent.”
“WHAT?!” Evangelist Ankit exclaimed.
“Absolutely NOT! Why would You want me to go get a tent? Tents are ugly. I don’t want to be in one of those things! There’s got to be a better way to do this.”
But the Lord replied again, “Go get a circus tent.”
Immediately, phone calls were made.Emails sent.
But every single reply?
A dead end.“Lord,” Evangelist Ankit prayed, “You told me to find a circus tent—and we don’t have a circus tent. So where do we find one?”
The Lord said, “You’re looking in the wrong place.”
“Really? Where do you want me to look?”
The Lord replied, “At a circus!”
“HA! Why didn’t I think of that?!”
With that clear direction, a call was made to a local circus—and just like that, a beautiful tent was found.They locked it in.But securing the tent was only the beginning. Problems started popping up on every front. Not only had Evangelist Ankit’s team never organized a tent crusade before, but every time they found land, the deal would fall through. One landowner even said, “There’s going to be a Wicca convention—and a Gospel tent meeting wouldn’t jive with our event.” Evangelist Ankit laughed. Honestly, he was glad it didn’t jive. How weird would it be if it did?
Regardless, Evangelist Ankit and his team weren’t going halfway with this crusade.It was all in—or nothing. This tent crusade wasn’t going to be modest. It was going to be massive. So big that—even if it completely flopped—it would still be bigger than someone else’s “success.” And because he knew the Lord was in it, he didn’t care about the cost.“Fill the tent with the best of the best—equipment, chairs, air conditioning. Make it EPIC,” he told his team. Going into the crusade, Evangelist Ankit wanted everything to be paid off before taking the mic on Night One—and the Lord did just that. His team didn’t have to go around raising funds; the Lord brought in every portion of the $260,000 needed. Because where God calls, He provides. The vision was too big to come together in the natural. It HAD to be supernatural. There was no way Evangelist Ankit could do it in his own strength.“One of the most astounding aspects of this God journey,” Evangelist Ankit shared, “was that from the time we found a place to starting the promotions and executing the tent meeting—the Lord helped us pull it all off in just 21 days.”
Yes, you read that right.
TWENTY-ONE DAYS from start to finish.
Suddenly, people started coming out of the woodwork. Volunteers flew in from different states—just to be part of what God was about to do under that tent. Every night, the tent was packed. Evangelist Ankit kept asking his crusade director, “Is there room for just one more?” But even the overflow was overflowing! Looking across the crowd, he could see it—the hunger in their eyes. And it gripped him entirely. With every meeting, momentum gained. Miracles broke out. Testimonies spread like wildfire. As the cycle of healing and people testifying night after night continued, more and more people packed the tent. Even the Mayor of Lakeland showed up. This city wasn’t just hearing about revival—they were being transformed by it in every sphere of influence. On the final night of the crusade, Evangelist Ankit’s team had to open the curtains of the tent just to accommodate the masses. The fire power of revival was flowing all throughout Lakeland! The vision the Lord gave Evangelist Ankit for America, while looking across a sea of people in India, was coming to fruition:
“For America has sown the seed of revival into the nations of the earth. I Am no man’s debtor. I will bring back the very harvest of seed America has sown.”
6. The Vision for Media
Generations before us have tasted and seen the supernatural power of God in miracles, signs, and wonders. They have seen great moves of the Holy Ghost shake cities, regions, and nations. But there is a generation today that has never seen miracles. They have never seen the power of the Holy Ghost or felt the manifest presence of God. It is time to change that.
At ARB Studio, we are bringing miracles to another generation.The blind are seeing, the deaf are hearing, and the cripple are running! The same miracles Jesus did in the days He walked the earth are the same miracles He is performing today. And guess what? We are capturing it all on camera, broadcasting it for the world to see the glory of God.
The world can try to debate that Jesus was just a man or just some prophet, but when they see Him heal, set free, and deliver, every debate is settled. There is no denying the Deity of Jesus Christ. ARB Studio was born from the vision to see a greater harvest of souls by displaying the real power of God. We are going to use our state-of-the-art TV broadcasting studio to smack America with the Gospel on every side—television, podcasts, radio, and more. The multitudes shall hear about the miracles. They shall see the miracles, and they shall receive miracles in the Mighty Name of Jesus.
7. The Next Chapter Unfolds - MAN ON FIRE Ep. 1 We Take On the Dolby Theatre!
We are taking territory for the Kingdom of God, aiming to reclaim every arena the enemy once held. The same altars once used for satanic rituals will become altars of worship for Jesus. The Lord placed a burning vision in Evangelist Ankit’s heart—to see stadiums and theaters filled with people hungry for a touch from heaven, starting with six major venues. And the Lord spoke something profound to him.
As Evangelist Ankit stepped out in faith to pursue the vision God gave him, the Lord said that where religious doors were closed, the rocks would cry out—and He would bring forth water from the rock. We are witnessing that very Word come to pass—not in some distant future, but this year. God has used the most unexpected people—not big churches or religious figures—to bring supernatural access, favor, and limitless possibilities.
God opened a door for us to make an impact in a place that is making an impact: the heart of Los Angeles, California—the Dolby Theatre. For a long time, Hollywood has been a driving force in influencing the direction of the world. As Evangelist Ankit often says, “So goes Hollywood, so goes the world.”
We are not just going to shake one city or one state. This revival will create a ripple effect across America and the globe, bringing about the next wave of a great spiritual awakening.
