the voice of manifestation

Dr. Mark T. Jones Sr.Apostle / Founder Manifestations Worldwide, Inc.

Our vision is to teach the end-times church of the essence of kingdom life, and to communicate deep, spiri-

tual truths in a simplified manner.

The Center for Manifestation was released from the heart of God to be a refreshing force to the body of

Christ. While the central theme and essence of this ministry is to prepare the way for the second coming of

the Lord Jesus Christ, in part this purpose is accomplished by retraining the saints as to what their God

given roles and responsibilities in the church are. It is also the vision of this ministry to bring healing and

deliverance to those who have been hindered from moving into position for the latter rains.

This is the season for the manifestation of the sons of God

The 10 IntelligencesQuotes from Author: Brian Tracy

I recently listened to an audio CD which gave me tremendous insight into why somepeople are extremely successful in what they do, and why others do not find any meas-ure of success. Now, normally I use these findings for my own spiritual development,but these were so powerful, and thought provoking that I was pressed to share themwith you.

According to this author, there are 10 basic intelligences, and a great key to success isdiscovering what your basic intelligences are, and focusing on, cultivating, and practic-ing the utilization of them.

Here is the list that he gave:Verbal: marked proficiency with the use of wordsMathematical: proficiency in understanding equationsPhysical: proficiency in athleticsMusical: proficiency in the music fieldvisual-spatial: proficiency in architecture and designinterpersonal: proficiency in relationshipsintrapersonal: proficiency in self awarenessentrepreneurial: proficiency in businessintuitive: proficiency of senseabstract: conceptual or scientific proficiency

Now, I am not going to go through all of these, but I did notice a couple of these“intelligences” that I may be able to claim as my own.For instance, intrapersonal intelligence is an amazing ability to know yourself so well,that you are actually are able to remain committed without distractions to that which isin agreement with the core of who you really are. Interpersonal intelligence is the abil-ity to master all kinds of relationships, with all kinds of people. Lastly, at least for me,entrepreneurial intelligence is the ability to envision, formulate, and operate businessconcepts successfully.

I encourage you to look through the list, find your “intelligences”, and begin refiningand utilizing them, so that you may attain a sense of personal effectiveness.

Women of God Experiencing Change

Dust to Dust

Oh women lend me your ear, open your hearts and walk in the spirit of Christ. So what makes youthe woman that you say that you are? Ok now before you go on listing all of your physical charac-

teristics or tally up your chronological years or reminiscing over the birth of a child, that's notwhat I was asking? Basically your explanation of those things just make you aware that you under-stand the female gender. So many women get stuck in the paradigm of just the function of the gen-der and never come to understand their unique God-given role or purpose. We were formed fromthe dust of the earth, evolving back to the dust. So many women get stuck in what the enemy in-

tended for us to do, by bringing divisions through stereotypes about us to one another,through things like cattiness, strife's betrayal, and making us feel like we cant trust each other.

Many of us never accept the call and purpose of our ministries to be able to minister tothe women we say that we are called to reach, basically because we can’t get pass the

"women". Many are unable to share from the healed areas in fear that their testimony or intentionswill be misaligned or misunderstood. Please realize that who the "Son has set free is free indeed.

True freedom brings you to the platform to be able carry out your purpose.

Join First Lady Lisa the 2nd & 4th Thursday of each month at 7pm.

HISTORY

Haiti is situated in one of the regions that many consider to be paradise on earth. The cook-ing styles of this enchanted land are closely related to the previous affirmation. An interest-ing mix of African cooking styles combined with the refinement of French cooking makethe Haitian cuisine something no cook or food enthusiast should miss. Haiti is too small tooffer distinct regional cooking styles and noticeably different cuisines in the parts of the

country. Since it does not have a dominant neighbour that would influence it, Haiti has picked up different cooking styles that arenow harmoniously blended with the African and French major influences. Visitors and locals alike enjoy the roast goat called'kabrit', the fried Pork 'griot' or poultry with a Creole sauce 'poulet creole', to name just some of the most popular meat dishes. Haitidisplays a general coastal cuisine, with fish meat, lobster, shrimp and sea-food readily available. Fruit including guava, pineapple,mango, banana, melons, breadfruit is often used in fruit salads, compotes or other delicious desserts. Sugarcane is often preparedand sold on streets and enjoyed at home as well as a tasty treat or snack. Coconuts are often the number one choice when it comesto beverages.In Haiti Christmas is called Noël. This comes from the French phrase "les bonnes nouvelles," which means "the good news" andrefers to the gospel. Traditionally, a few days before Christmas, Haitians would cut pine branches to serve as Christmas treesor they would go to the market and get freshly cut trees brought from the mountains. They would then decorate them with brightornaments. At the base of the Christmas tree they would add a fairly large nativity scene which could occupy a large part of theliving room. They depicted a cave manger, with Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus, the wise men, and sculptured stable animals completewith hay or spanish moss (Bab panyol).

Together, we viewed Genesis 24th chapteras a love story. Our journey became anIsaac and Rebecca experience in moderntimes. Our intention was not to overlookour church family and friends but to obeythe instructions given to us. Our experienceproves that the bible is a living epistle thatcan and will manifest and duplicate itselfagain and again, that’s God's intention. Thetest is this, will there be someone in theearth to say “yes?”… The yes cost youmore than you will ever imagine but thebenefits are everlasting. We chose to beguided by the Master Potter through theinstructions of the Word of God and everyword spoken out of the mouth of our spiri-tual leader Apostle Mark T. Jones Sr. Webelieve that the way is already seen by himthrough the eyes of the spirit of God inhim. We also trust that as our leader,he speaks the prevailing Word into our fu-ture and our destiny is revealed and mademanifest. It is our encouragement to youthat you only desire to continue toobey. WE WILL!!!

Let Destiny Unfold and be madeManifest!

It was a blessing to be able to fellowship with the Mothers of Manifestation during our interview. The Mothers of Mani-festation are Mother Georgia, Mother Ransom, Mother Mary, Mother Walters and Mother Graham. They worktogether in the Nursing Home Ministry, Greeters Ministry and Hospitality Department. Mother Georgia coming from anAME church has been a partner of CFM for about 2 years, (has served as mother for 1 year.). She expressed gratitudetoward the CFM family because of the love that she receives. Mother Ransom previously served as a Missionary at anAME church, she has been a partner of CFM for 8 years and is the leader of the Bereavement Ministry. Mother Waltershas been a partner for 2 years enjoys praying for the saints daily. Mother Graham a partner for 4 years, ssays she hasbeen called “Mother Graham” since she became a partner. She is connected to the Children’s Ministry is also part of theEmerge team and the cooking class which is offered through CFM’s Empowerment House. She thanks God that she isable to be part of what God designed her to be and to be able to impart into the lives of others. Mother Mary has been apartner for 7 years enjoys making the people of God feel welcomed and loved. These Mothers of Manifestation alsomentioned that Apostle Jones and First Lady Lisa Jones have been a blessing to them because of the never-ending,Christ- like love shown towards them.

I can tell that the Mothers of Manifestation have in common that they love to hug, see the people of God grow spiritu-ally and help others in many areas that they have need of. The Mothers of Manifestation are great influence to the peo-ple of God. The message that they are sending is Ro 12:1- I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

I want to encourage all CFM partners to experience “Time Well Spent” with our Mothers of Manifestation!

The India Missions Experience

Let me begin by giving God all the Glory, Honor & Praise for allowing me toattend such an awesome end time move of the Kingdom Apostolic Move-ment in India. I’m grateful for the supporters as well as our team that exe-

cuted our strategic assignment with confidence and excellence. I must admit,I’m just now beginning to settle into the awesome work the Lord accomplished while we were there.As I meditate upon this mission I’m convinced after entering my 3rd International trip none of themare the same and they all individually require something different. Let me say this, Missions is not avacation it’s a spiritual assignment that one must be spiritually prepared for. It was humorous uponreturn to share our experiences of not having a restroom or being seen without make-up, driving for

long periods of time, walking long distances and sometimes wearing the same clothes more thanonce, and in some cases eating with your hands what has been presented to you according to the

word of God (and that is receiving it with prayer & thanksgiving). There were so many memorablemoments of this journey especially the opportunity to enter the canal to baptize new converts. Thiswas my first experience baptizing so, I will never forget the facial expressions or bursts of joy heard

from the mouths of those baptized.

This powerful series affirms the reality that the 5 Fold ministry giftsare still in operation in the body of Christ today!

“This is the Season for the Manifestation of the Sons of

God”

Into All the World


By Prophetess Michelle Guess

The humility and servitude of the Pastors will also be remembered, Pastors in India serve without shoes on!

Visiting the churches was indescribable each church had its own identity and full to capacity, I even noticed

one of their microphones was made from a flash light, (sounded good to me) The hungry for prayer and their

faith to receive the blessing of God imparted into their congregation as well as their Children, the Children

sought diligently to receive the blessing from God by the laying on of hands. The gifts of the spirit are normal

operations to us because of the multitude of needs that arise. The Ordination service was outstanding not

only in the attendance but the expectation that was in the atmosphere was breathtaking. The excitement of

knowing the Pastors can now preach the gospel openly, baptize and have Christian marriage ceremonies is a

awesome privilege that each ordained Pastor has received Hallelujah! The hospitality was very memorable

especially the genuine humility each of the women conveyed as they served us, (we didn’t go to do all the

imparting) they imparted some valuable tools to us as well, on serving with excellence and humility. They

serve with little and you can’t tell through them it’s little which humbled me (again) I’m learning you don’t

need what you always think you need to impact the lives of others, only what God deems as necessary is

what you need! The women in India dressed very elegantly in their attire, also, notice the way women ride

motorcycles in India in the Photo presented, they sit sideways not straddled, such elegance! Again, a memo-

rable moment was when they measured us and had sown for us in a day the beautiful garments that you see

in the picture, they were blessed to see us smile, they gave us matching bracelets and fresh flowers for our

hair leaving us with experiences of beauty we will never forget. The journey before ending was the farewell

services when the Pastors’ brokenness and humility couldn’t be hid through the words of gratitude, gifts &

tears presented on behalf of FBCM India team to Dr. Jones and the team. There are not many words that

can describe the experience but I can guarantee you, You will know after you receive the reward for being a

blessing to the ministry. Coming home was a little difficult ( I indeed missed my family and was ready to re-

turn) but the burden and compassion felt for the team weigh heavily on your heart because they genuinely

want to serve God and Know him intimately. My prayer is that our focuses remain Kingdom oriented and

not worldly, for the Kingdom of God is truly at hand and we must be about our father’s business.

Will your heart and soul say yes?

“Disease is Impersonal”

The word disease means lack of ease – dis-ease. Abnormal, absence of a normal condition.As believers it is necessary for us to know and be mindful of the fact that disease is not anentity. Disease is an impersonal thing, attempting to operate and personify itself in the mindand body of the one who has it, and as an actual experience to the one who is suffering fromit.

Disease is an experience operating through people, this experience does not belong to thebeliever at all. It is neither person, place nor thing. There is no spiritual law to support it andnothing in the character of God to accommodate it. The bible tells us that we were made inthe image and likeness of God and that we were healed and are healed by the stripes of Je-sus Christ our Lord and Savior. Is 53:5; -I Peter 2:24.

We are “the healed” protecting our health.

In Proverbs 4:20-22 Solomon speaks of words of wisdom and instruction he received in hisfather’s house that could possibly bring health to his flesh – if he finds them. Even thoughhe could see them and had them in the midst of his heart, he still had to attend to the wordsand incline his ear to the sayings of his father.

Attend and Incline: to attend means to look after; watch, to apply oneself, to take charge of.Whereas to incline means to tend in character or in course of action.It is so important that we do not open doors upon ourselves by practicing improper eatinghabits and lack of personal care to the Temple of God which we are to steward. Take heedto the word of the Lord, deny your flesh for at least 24 hours each week during our Tuesdaycorporate fasting and prayer. This simple act of obedience produces tremendous disciplinewhile enhancing your spirit, soul and body.

To your Health and wholeness!
